Reincarnation Paradise Chapter 834: I am Not a Master

Chapter 834: I am Not a Master

Boom!

Yan Chen, wielding the staff, was pushed back, the team wrapped in a layer of ice crystals.

Staggering back a few steps, Yan Chen looked at the ice crystals on the staff. The fire elements were reattached to the team, shattering the ice crystals.

“Ice-based assassin abilities. It seems Xi knows a lot about my information.”

Yan Chen took off his mage robe, standing bare-chested. Numerous magic circuits were inscribed on his body, causing Lin Dong to furrow his brow upon seeing them.

“In Xi’s data, am I a spell tank or a fire mage?”

As Yan Chen spoke, he twisted the staff in his hand. With a clang, the improved golden-quality team extended significantly, a thirty-centimetre-long blade appearing at the tip. This golden staff astonishingly transformed into a two-meter-long fire-type magic spear, emitting intense heat. The surrounding air began to distort. This was one of Yan Chen’s abilities, supported by several passive skills for close combat.

Staff Transformation Lv.26 (Passive): Can transform the staff into a magic spear, endowing it with the same quality capabilities—magical spear quality (golden).

Polearm Mastery Lv.30 (Passive): Increases polearm attack by 92%, significantly improving polearm usage skills.

Weapon Attribute Enchantment Lv.10 (class-specific passive): Can infuse highly concentrated elemental power of its type onto the weapon. In the case of the fire element, weapon attacks will carry an additional 100 points of fire damage and subsequent burning effects, which are stackable.

Flame Lance Knight Lv.32 (class-specific passive): While mounted, you are immune to 10% damage and can freely convert between strength, agility, intelligence, and stamina.

…

These are some of Yan Chen’s primary abilities. Spells like Fireball and Fire Rocket are used to confuse enemies.

Yan Chen is neither a long-range mage nor a spell tank; those are just appearances. He is a Flame Lance Knight, an extremely rare profession. Though not as scarce as the Shadow of Destruction, this profession isn’t numerous. Its main attributes are stamina and intelligence.

Stamina ensures survivability, while intelligence’s primary role is weapon enchantment, enhancing the power of the enchanted attribute.

When entering the mounted state, Yan Chen converts intelligence into strength. This way, he becomes entirely focused on close combat.

The magic spear spun in Yan Chen’s hand as he looked at Lin Dong with a sarcastic smile.

“Come out, Pyak.”

Yan Chen stamped his foot, and a magic circle appeared beside him. A sizeable feline creature engulfed in flames appeared. It resembled a tiger but was more extensive, entirely engulfed in flames.

Yan Chen mounted the Flame Tiger Pyak, converting intelligence into strength. Surging strength emerged within him. At this moment, Yan Chen had 80 points of power.

“Ice-based little assassin, I’m starting the second round.”

Yan Chen patted the Flame Tiger under him. This beast, from an unknown world, pounced towards Lin Dong.

Boom! Boom!

Flames exploded, turning the labyrinth into a bulldozer, with chunks of stone flying everywhere as Yan Chen charged.

Five minutes later, with a thud, a broken body fell to the ground—it was Lin Dong.

Lin Dong’s lower body was gone, and his upper body was covered in crisscrossing burn marks. There was no fresh blood flowing from the wounds; they had been seared by high temperatures, a more severe injury than bleeding.

“Cough, cough, cough…”

Lin Dong, lying on the ground, coughed up some blood, the heat of which burnt his mouth, indicating the abundance of fire elements within him.

Now blinded, Lin Dong lay on the ground, his body convulsing involuntarily.

A Flame Tiger approached, its claws stepping on Lin Dong’s body.

“Roar!”

The roar of the Flame Tiger echoed throughout the maze. Sitting on the tiger’s back, Yan Chen pierced Lin Dong’s throat with a spear.

“You’re just a petty assassin. Maybe you’re good against long-range mages, but I am not one.”

Yan Chen speared through Lin Dong’s throat, and Lin Dong convulsed a few times before lying still.

“I’ve hidden for so long. It’s time to give you a surprise, Xi.”

At this moment, Yan Chen no longer had the aura of a mage. He was fiery, full of strength, and seemed somewhat unstoppable when riding his mount.

Yan Chen took out a communicator, spoke a few words, then hung up, heading towards Xi’s direction.

With a slicing sound, a throat was cut, and a support-type contract holder suddenly lost all strength. Before the blood hit the ground, Su Xiao had vanished.

Standing behind a stone pillar, Su Xiao’s right hand held a blood-dripping butcher’s knife, and his left hand held a textual communicator.

“Found another lone healer. Efficient.”

Su Xiao dashed out from behind the pillar, disappearing several times within the maze. With the help of Bubu Wang, he had already killed over a dozen healing or support-type contract holders.

Among the contract holders’ abilities during chaos, the most annoying was undoubtedly the healing abilities.

The contract holders didn’t have much health. When two contract holders fought, if there was no overwhelming strength on either side, the side with a healing contract holder had a probability of over 80% of winning.

Moreover, the number of healing contract holders on the Weather Paradise side was several times that of the Reincarnation Paradise side. Yes, several times.

Given the survival environment of Reincarnation Paradise, apart from adventure team members, no one would develop healing abilities. Their offensive and survival capabilities were too weak. Without others’ protection, the survival possibility of a healing contract holder in the derived world was not high.

Even with teammates’ protection, whether temporarily brought in teammates were reliable or not was unknown. Therefore, healers and main tanks were the rarest contract holders in Reincarnation Paradise. Wild main tanks could still appear, as they had a survival foundation. As for wild healers, there were hardly any, maybe one in a hundred, perhaps one in a thousand.

The situation in the Dawn Paradise was different. Here, the treatment of contract holders was relatively mild. Contract holders generally didn’t harbor deadly grudges against each other, which also provided a survival environment for wild healers.

The number of healing contract holders in the Dawn Paradise was already higher, and with the present large organization of nearly a thousand people within the ancient ruins, having a higher number of healing contract holders was considered normal.

Because of this, relying on their strong endurance, the Dawn Paradise side managed to push the Reincarnation Paradise side back to the edge behind the maze, almost to the extent of retreating to the stone bridge.

What Su Xiao was doing now was reducing the number of healing contract holders on the Dawn Paradise side. Leaving aside the pitiful combat awareness and vigilance of these healing contract holders, with their small frames, they were completely stepped on by Su Xiao.

Su Xiao’s plan was to kill as much as possible before the enemy found him, to give his side an advantage. Once the enemy discovered him, he had to return to his side as soon as possible. Though his position seemed safe, it was actually full of danger. He was near the enemy’s long-range contract holders. Once discovered, he would face dozens or even hundreds of long-range contract holders focusing fire on him, which would be dangerous.

The risk was high, but so was the reward. Every time Su Xiao slit the throat of a healing contract holder, he gained 3 to 4 points of merit. In just a short while, he had gained 51 points of merit. The vigilance of these healing and support-type contract holders was extremely poor. At first, Su Xiao even doubted that these were not second-tier contract holders but first-tier ones.
