Chapter 279: Zi Jiao's Challenge - Part 8
The atmosphere on the battlefield began to grow heavy after the soldiers' skeletons appeared, strong pressure emanating from its bodies.
Zi Jiao just grabbed the steel ruler and charged towards the group of skeletons, she did not know the level of these skeletons, so she could only attack to find out.
With a swing of the ruler, three skeletons are destroyed and the counter rise in three. However, Zi Jiao did not have time to get excited, the archers in the back began to shoot arrows.
With a jump and a swing, she dodged the arrows and five more skeletons are defeated. Zi Jiao began to think that the skeletons had a very low level and that they would increase in the next waves.
After a few minutes, all the skeletons are dead. And a timer appears again in the sky.
"00:59"
Zi Jiao just sat on the floor and waited for the timer to reach zero.
...
"00:00"
By the time the timer reached zero, on the horizon it was possible to see a hundred warrior skeletons walking toward Zi Jiao, but this time there were not only soldiers and archers, but there were also ten commanders mounted on horses holding swords.
The commanders were the first to charge, followed by the warriors and then by the archers. Zi Jiao also charged she would not expect the skeletons to take the initiative.
With the swing of the steel ruler, Zi Jiao destroyed the horse of the first commanders before it was destroyed. Then she charged toward the nine other commanders who were also using the sword to cut in her direction.
But it was useless, the skeletons' weapons did not have enough power to penetrate the steel ruler, so it could only stay and be destroyed by Zi Jiao.
...
The second wave was unsuccessfully won by Zi Jiao, with only a swing of her weapon, she was able to destroy the opponents.
The third wave had only skeleton commanders in the group, the fourth wave had generals with full armor and spears mounted on war horses. And finally, in the fifth group, there were only generals using full equipment and mounted on war horses.
The generals were no different from the commanders, although it had armor, it was destroyed as if it were a toy. This was due to the ability of Zi Jiao's sword, which could destroy armor that had defense less than its attack power.
During the fighting process, Zi Jiao was injured several times because of the speed of the warhorses that were much larger than the commanding horses. With the strategy of destroying the first horses, and running to attract the other generals with the horse.
Zi Jiao defeated the first horses to cause the general skeletons to walk, with weakened movement, Zi Jiao just shook the steel ruler and destroyed the generals after the horses were destroyed.
After all five waves have been defeated, a voice is heard.
"Congratulations on completing the trial, you deserve to receive my inheritance, just sit down and close your eyes"
After the voice ended, Zi Jiao sat in the lotus position and closed the eyes.
Not knowing what was going on outside, she began to feel warm energy coming into her body and sounds of systems began to pop into her mind.
After several days, Zi Jiao finally opened her eyes, looking at her statistics and skills, she was shocked by what she saw.
Its strength attribute increased from 306 to 350, this was a big increase and the other stats increased just three points. She was scared when she saw that under the MP bar there was a new bar appeared, with the following words written: Rage (0-100).
She did not know what this was since it was common knowledge that to use the skills, it was normal for someone to use MP. Zi Jiao tried to think a little and to her surprise, the information about her class appeared in the mind.
"The Berserk class is a class for those who have pure strength, using only the power of fists or any kind of weapon to destroy their enemies. Using the Tage as the energy to use and give additional effects combat skills. Whenever a new rank is achieved, new skills will appear"
After reading the description of the class, she was shocked because it was a class that was perfect for her. That is a person who had only brute Strenght.
Looking at the skill page, Zi Jiao saw that she had three new abilities.
Weapon Master (Passive) (Level 1-10) - Increases damage with any type of heavy weapon by 10%.
Impact (Active) (Level 1-10) - Uses the heavy weapon to hit the target and cause great damage. Damage based on user's Strength and weapon weight. 10 * Weapon Weight in Kilo + 10 * Total Strength Attribute. Gain 15 Rage when using.
Extra Effect: When the rage bar is full, you have a 5 percent chance of breaking the weapon or armor that blocks the attack.
Sweep Horizontal(Active) (Level 1-5) - Using all the force and making a horizontal cut with the heavy weapon. 15 * Weapon Weight in Kilos + 10 * Total Attribute Strength. Creates 20 Rage when using.
Extra Effect: If the rage bar is complete, the ability deals twice as much damage.
Zi Jiao was stunned, but soon enough joy could be seen in her face. She was very pleased with the inheritance she received, looking at the common skills, she realized that each one of them generated 1 point of Rage.
After Zi Jiao received the inheritance, a light covered her body, and she appeared outside the temple. Zi Jiao just bowed in front of the temple to thank it for the inheritance she received before starting to run again through the forest, she was eager to test her new abilities.
During the way back, Zi Jiao encountered hundreds of creatures, she killed them all quickly and decisively with just one swing of the steel ruler. After leveling up a bit and getting used to the skills, Zi Jiao began to return to the location that had the transport array, she would go elsewhere.
...
After going through various locations, Zi Jiao finally arrived in another country, she wanted to level again, but this would only help her level and improve the reflexes of combat. After several days of thinking about what she was going to do, Zi Jiao decided to go to the country where she was born and enroll in the army as a temporary assistant.
This kind of thing was an exchange of favors, Zi Jiao would train with instructors and combat, but in return, she would have to fight in wars or fight against creature invasions.
The country that Zi Jiao was at the time was called the Conqueror Empire, the country had this name because of its founder who had the nickname of The Conqueror, one of the greatest warriors that ever existed in the Nine Worlds.
The imperial capital was like the other countries, full of people going from one place to another, carriages running down the wide streets while some were flying. From time to time it was possible for people to fly through the skies, this was to show their power.
Zi Jiao traveled from airship to the empire before picking up an array and arriving in the imperial capital. She was not surprised at the scene she was seeing, she had seen other cities like this.
After asking about where they were recruiting temporary people in the army, Zi Jiao just picked up another array of transportation inside the city, since the imperial capital was as big as a small country.
Zi Jiao knew she could not wear a black cloak to make the inscription, so she bought a mask that covered half of her face and the clothes were made of leather that enlarged her beautiful curves. As she walked, the men could not help, but staring at her.
She had to wear this type of armor, since she already used much of her strength holding the weapon, if Zi Jiao wears heavy armor, she would have difficulty moving. She saves the steel ruler into the space bag and slipped two steel gloves into her hands, Zi Jiao was testing her ability with the fists.
The recruitment site was full of low-level people since the minimum requirement to enlist was level 10 to have a class and the maximum was level 100 and could have a class or not.
