Netherblue’s eyes were cold, her mask was giving off an icy aura.

The beauty had her face covered, her chest that under her armor seemed as if it was about to burst out, her shapely body was already a weapon with great lethality!

Hamstring!

At the same time her foot kicked Lin Jie’s abdomen, Netherblue slid his right leg’s tendons. That caused Lin Jie’s movement speed to instantly decrease by a huge portion. She immediately maneuvered to behind him, and with the combo of Heroic Strike after Crasher, and pierced towards the back of Lin Jie’s head.

Lin Jie secretly said, ‘Good!’ Then, he tolerated the pain, raised the longsword in his hand directly up his back and touched the tip of Netherblue’s sword. But, unexpectedly, it was directly flicked away!

-174!

-126!

Lin Jie’s Health Bar decreased by a little lesser than half!

Lin Jie that was used to his body now jumped up vigorously and pierced one sword towards Netherblue’s eyes, the other towards her chest. They were both the most tricky spots! Under the instinctive protection of the body, Netherblue closed both of her eyes and lost her vision. Lin Jie then took advantage of it and kicked onto Netherblue’s belly, while the tip of the sword accurately slid past her white neck for a continuous three swords. Netherblue’s HP dropped by half!

With every attack, Netherblue’s body leaned back slightly. When she tried to control her body to counterattack, she realized her body had already left the ground and was falling to the platform below.

“Trash!” Lin Jie laughed coldly. Then, he jumped up and kicked her, adding to her falling speed!

Dong!

Soil and sand flew around, Netherblue’s HP was only left with 20 points, the patrolling Dark Iron Dwarves had already respawned, wanting to go up and attack her. She rolled on the ground and quickly escaped the aggro radius, bringing herself that was full of yellow soil to hide behind the rock, eating bread to regen.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, you have really given much thought to training her,” exclaimed Silent Grey Sky amazedly. She had already realized Lin Jie’s intentions. At least the weapon Lin Jie was using when killing monsters was much better than the worn-out sword he was holding in his hands.

Lin Jie shrugged his shoulders and did not answer.

“I’m tired.” Silent Grey Sky stretched and revealed her slender waist that was plentiful dainty of a hand, smiling as she said, “Sister will go offline now to sleep for a few days before coming back to mine again, bye bye.”

“Oh, that’s right, this is for you.” She took out yet another three pieces of Weighted Concentrated Dark Ore. She added smilingly, “If you still want these ores, come to Dark Iron Mountain to find me. That is if I am in a good mood and haven’t thrown these useless things away.”

Silent Grey Sky went offline, Lin Jie took a look down. Netherblue really had grasped the gist of coming up the mountain, in the blink of an eye, she charged up again!

This time, her attack actually become more wretched, her longsword was aimed at Lin Jie’s weak hidden parts.

She was ruthless when she attacked. Lin Jie hurriedly pulled back his leg, dodging her attack. Netherblue smiled, it seemed as if she was very satisfied with her attacks. With Heroic Strike as the first hit, she had decided to start a combo!

“Idiot, your starting strike is too obvious!” mocked Lin Jie. The longsword pierced through her neck from up to down without warning, the sword was raised lightly and Weakness Exploit was activated! No matter from what angle, Lin Jie’s weapon always accurately aimed at her neck. After an intense beating, she was kicked down again.

Half an hour later, Neverblue appeared once again, she did not have a weapon in her hand, but she pulled her sword out at the instant of Forward Charge, slashing it!

“Trash! Just straightforwardly dashing towards me, only fools would be hit by you!” Lin Jie predicted Netherblue’s movement trajectory and his longsword accurately parried her attack. Lin Jie’s attack gathered at one point again, and he kicked her down the mountain again.

“Did your brain not fully develop? You must use a skill to start your combo?”

“Are you blind? Are your eyes grown to drink pee? My obviously sturdy right arm is all stretched out for you, and you can still miss? It would be strange if you could deal damage!”

“Your footwork is as if you are crippled, and you still want to do blocking, do you know the seven dance? Practice it while looking at the mirror!”

…

For a total of 15 hours, Netherblue was kicked off the mountain for nearly 200 times, even Lin Jie was feeling tired. As a gentleman, the flower bud of hismotherland 1 , in just half an hour, Lin Jie had already finished his vocabulary, so he could only go online to find videos of shrews shouting abuse in public to learn.

Meanwhile, Netherblue’s speed in chasing became faster and faster, and she was getting more and more skilled! She was even able to accurately avoid the aggro radius of Dark Iron Dwarves, she did not need to specially wait for the Dwarves’ patrol trajectory to have a loophole anymore. Therefore, the frequency at which she was kicked off the mountain also increased by a lot.

The expression in her eyes did not have any change, after every challenge, her strength would increase by a bit. Her attacks became more strange while the angles trickier. She was almost more ruthless with the body part that she attacked…

“Still coming again? It wasn’t easy for your Mom to raise you until now, so why didn’t she give you a brain too?” Lin Jie continued scolding, his Silver longsword’s blade had already turned a little.

However, this time, Netherblue did not hurry to attack, her Health Bar was only left with 1

/10!

“It can’t be that you have suffered from emotional shock and decided to come to suicide, right?” Lin Jie widened his eyes.

She reached out her hand. “Give me your sword.”

“You think I’m an idiot?” Lin Jie laughed coldly.

Netherblue silently took out a scroll and threw it to the ground. “In exchange for 100 loaves of bread.”

Equipment Restoration Scroll: Can repair the durability of equipment below Silver-grade.

Lin Jie gave her a weird look and accepted the scroll. Light enveloped the Silver longsword and restored its durability. Normally, Lin Jie did not need those things—the durability of high-grade equipment decreased very slowly, unlike the two Silver weapons. Just by slashing for a day, its durability and attributes would decrease.

Repairing equipment was quite a large expense, the amount of money a Warrior would spend repairing his weapon would be around 3 silver coins.

Meanwhile, Netherblue took the 100 loaves of bread and started recovering her HP.

The two of them just stood there strangely.

Suddenly, a sharp blade was pierced towards his bottoms, Lin Jie instantly felt his butt tightened. When he was about to dodge it, one could only see Netherblue’s azure blue figure using a beautiful seven dance step to reach right in front of Lin Jie. Her longsword slashed, and in a short one time attack interval, she actually slashed out two sword shadows!

After attacking, she immediately used a skill to cancel the interval, the combo of Heroic Strike after Crasher reached Lin Jie’s neck, and weak point damage popped up one after another.

Lin Jie’s body leaned back slightly… His Health Bar was already almost to the bottom…

If that continued, he would be killed by the combo!

The temperature suddenly decreased, Lin Jie reluctantly hurriedly activated Ice Soul Slash, and froze Netherblue, kicking her down the mountain. He then sat down to eat bread and recover his HP.

‘This girl, her improvement is quite huge!’

Her improvement was of course huge! Lin Jie’s skill, at the very least, was ahead of The New Age game by four years. Even if there were many experts that had appeared in Lin Jie’s previous life, how many of them could teach others like how Lin Jie was, by precept and example?

In addition, Netherblue’s game talent was not bad, at most she was looked down slightly due to her gender.

This time, Netherblue did not come up again. Instead, she took a deep look into Lin Jie’s eyes and went offline! She had been online continuously for over 40 hours, the burden on her body was too big.

—’The mission Kill the Sky Provision Shop Owner has failed, do you wish to continue to release it?’

“No!”

Lin Jie canceled the mission, whereas, at the same time, the other two missions were still flickering.

Lin Jie nodded his head slightly and wore back his equipment. The surging energy returned within his body, and once he clenched his fist, the feeling of being filled with strength was extremely pleasant!

The techniques taught to Netherblue, as long as she was willing to comprehend them, they were enough for her to become a first-rate expert. However, the process was extremely long and painful, it all depended on her tenacity.

Silent Grey Sky was still in the offline status, Lin Jie thought for a while and decided to continue going deeper in.

At the peak of the Dark Iron Mountain, there was a level 23 dungeon “Dark Iron Castle” which would drop huge amounts of forging materials. The first team to clear the Dark Iron Mountain could even obtain a Forging Furnace, which would make the Dark Iron Mountain become one of the popular leveling grounds not far in the future.

However, now, few players could climb to the top!

He drank the Invisibility Potion, and Lin Jie’s body gradually became translucent. Even so, he could still be found by monsters easily, it was just the aggro radius was decreased only.

The number of Dwarves at the Dark Iron Mountain was immense, it was as if they were packed like sardines!

The patrol teams that never stopped protected the Dark Iron Mountain until it was an impregnable fortress. No matter how clever a Bandit was, it would be difficult to pass without the route map’s guidance.

Heavy Iron Boots stepped on the ground, giving out heavy footsteps. As a Warriors, Lin Jie’s movement was far from being as light as Bandits. The good thing was that he had come to Dark Iron Mountain before and was quite familiar with the patrolling route of the Dwarves. Hence, on the desolate and uninhabited Dark Iron Mountain, one could see a Warrior wearing black armor, scurrying around with little steps, making clinking and clanking sounds.

As he neared the peak of the mountain, the patrol team became more sparse on the contrary.

Over 50 yards away stood 3 Boss-level Dwarves. One held a shield and two held staffs, standing there coldly.

They were the famous Three Sages Dark Iron Dwarves!

All three Bosses were Gold-tier, their stats were quite normal, at most a level 20 Elite, but they could annihilate a team of 1,000 people! That’s right, thousand-man team!

When the Three Sages were gathered together, their attributes would increase by 1% every second, the extent of the increase and growth was not high, by right, just a few hundred of people could easily kill them… However, the Three Sages had another attribute — every time a Sage died, it would cause the other two Sages to obtain “Invincibility”, lasting for 20 seconds. If the number of Sages present was over 2, then the Sage that had died would revive in 10 seconds.

That abnormal enhance in attributes let countless of guilds face crushing defeats.

The first kill of the Three Sages would definitely drop a book of “The Secrets Records of Dwarfish Forging”, in which a total of 20 Gold equipment’s Forging Recipes were recorded! In Lin Jie’s previous life, Angel Descent had obtained first kill, which was natural as Prague City was one of the cities close to the Dark Iron Mountain.

To clear “Dark Iron Mountain”, one needed to kill the Three Sages. If one wasn’t able to even kill the Guardian Bosses, how could they enter the dungeon? That problem had lasted for a total of two months before it was solved.

The Three Sages stood in a triangle formation and would take a small step every few minutes, behind then was the dungeon’s big gate! Lin Jie needed to pass through them in one go or else he would be captured and killed.

Lin Jie observed for half an hour and took a deep breath.

Hunter’s Forward Charge!

Aiming at the Sage holding the shield, Lin Jie hurriedly rushed towards him. A black shadow instantly charged to the front of the Sage, at the same time, the other two Sages’ bodies were floating, their Ice Ring Spell was still being channeled.

Outraged Roar!

A roar resounded, interrupting the channeling! Lin Jie activated Wild Charge and charged towards the spiral gate vigorously, his Broken Blade hung below his body, and ice crystals covered the sword.

Whoosh!

The Sage holding the shield teleported to the front of the dungeon spiral, and with loud roars, the two Sages were instantly pulled together.

“Ice Soul Slash!”

Ice crystals exploded, and the three Sages were frozen into ice sculptures!

—’You have entered the dungeon Dark Iron Castle, please choose the difficulty…’

Expert-level! Expert-level!

Lin Jie’s consciousness continuously ordered, he then plunged into the dungeon spiral.
