Chapter 37: A Match of Equals
Holding twin axes, Luo Yong’s offense was fierce.
Relying on his strength, he charged back and forth through the enemy camp, practically moving as if no one was there!
Luo Yong’s reckless actions at this moment clearly had Luo Ji’s tacit approval.
Although he had no interest in wiping out this tribe, his ultimate goal was simply to make these people abandon their current camp and leave this area.
But to achieve this, you first had to demonstrate sufficient deterrent power, right?
Let them clearly realize that they couldn’t defeat us and staying here would only result in a beating.
Only then would the opponent obediently leave, wouldn’t they?
However, just as Luo Ji was assessing the situation before him and preparing to retreat after causing a bit more trouble, an unexpected situation suddenly occurred.
A swift figure quickly emerged from the enemy camp, and a wooden staff equal to his height in his hand actually struck directly at Luo Yong, who was charging with great enthusiasm!
Luo Yong clearly sensed the approaching danger.
He extended a single arm, and an axe full of force chopped directly backward.
Facing Luo Yong’s axe without even looking back, a hint of surprise flashed across the attacker’s face.
He hadn’t expected that the opponent would be able to react in that instant, which truly surprised him.
However, he himself was clearly no pushover.
His offensive movements were masterful, retracting and extending with ease.
With a clean side step, Luo Yong’s confidently aimed frontal blow missed.
In a flash of lightning, their eyes both changed as they looked at each other.
A feeling of meeting a worthy opponent arose spontaneously, making Luo Yong’s fighting spirit even stronger.
“Come on, try taking two more of my axes!”
Before his words finished, Luo Yong’s twin axes were already attacking the opponent.
His natural divine strength allowed him to unleash astonishing attacks with the twin axes!
“This guy is so strong!”
Just by listening to the dull whistling sounds of the twin axes as they swung, the young man wielding the long staff could already imagine how strong the force behind these stone axes was.
He couldn’t take them head-on, the long staff in his hand simply couldn’t withstand it.
It would probably break in two after taking a single hit.
Little did he know, while he was marveling at Luo Yong’s strength, Luo Yong was also marveling at his agility.
“What’s with this kid?”
“He’s even more slippery than the fish in Mirror Lake!”
“I actually can’t hit him?”
Luo Yong, wielding twin axes, already possessed a high attack frequency, and his offense was incredibly fierce.
However, facing this guy who was dodging left and right at this moment, he actually felt like he couldn’t do anything to him.
Amidst the crowd, the two fought increasingly fiercely.
Round after round, their back-and-forth offensive, with neither of them giving way, was simply dazzling to watch.
The other six wolf warriors who had charged in with Luo Yong clearly noticed such a big commotion here, and a hint of surprise flashed across their faces.
As fellow wolf warriors who trained together regularly, they knew how strong Luo Yong was.
Without exaggeration, no one was willing to spar with him.
His training opponent would basically be just there to be beaten.
His fists, when swung, were terrifyingly powerful, and with attacks coming from both sides, it was simply deadly.
No matter how hard they racked their brains.
They would never have thought that a tribe with a total population of only sixty or seventy people could produce someone capable of fighting Luo Yong to such a degree.
Luo Ji, of course, was even more shocked.
The astonishment on his face was completely undisguised, and it even carried a hint of disbelief.
Because he could be said to be the person present who understood this situation the most.
With the combat power bonus from the high morale state, the effect bonus from campaigning against barbarians, plus the weapon advantage, under these circumstances, Luo Yong was actually fighting the opponent to a standstill?
How could this not shock him?
He quickly opened Luo Yong’s attribute panel and glanced at it.
His ‘Bravery’ level was still at a 3 star level.
‘Growing Braver in Battle’ was a passive skill, and the 30% trigger chance could only be said to be neither high nor low, it wasn’t something that could be triggered whenever he wanted.
This situation slightly eased Luo Ji’s complexion.
If Luo Yong couldn’t win even with his combat power surging to 4 stars, then this young man’s ‘Bravery’ level would be a bit terrifying.
“3 stars or 4 stars?”
Looking at the young man who was locked in a fierce battle with Luo Yong, Luo Ji’s breathing couldn’t help but quicken a bit.
“This person’s maximum ‘Bravery’ is definitely not low. If I can capture him…”
As soon as this thought arose, Luo Ji, as if realizing something, quickly shook his head, as if trying to shake the thought out of his mind.
“Calm down, calm down!”
“Don’t be greedy.”
“Being greedy makes it easy for things to go wrong.”
“Looking at his strength, the difficulty of capturing him alive is too high.”
“Forcibly capturing him would likely require paying a significant price, and even after capturing him, he might not be willing to serve me…”
As his thoughts raced, Luo Ji’s gaze quickly swept over the other six wolf warriors.
These were the elites of their tribe.
Their loyalty to him was close to maximum.
Losing any one of them would cause him immense pain.
That young man might be a fierce general, but he might not be willing to follow Luo Ji.
Given this premise, it was simply too irrational and not cost-effective to capture someone at the expense of his loyal elites.
It wasn’t his usual style.
He took two deep breaths and, after regaining his composure.
He decided to temporarily ignore this unexpected discovery and continue according to the original plan.
In this tribe, the only one with fierce combat power was clearly that young man.
Most of the other barbarians’ strength was at an ordinary level and they were no match for the wolf warriors under his command.
However, since they had the advantage in numbers, if they dragged it out further, there would inevitably be a risk of injuries.
Since the objective had been achieved anyway, Luo Ji seized an opportunity and decisively issued the retreat order.
“Kid, we’ll fight again next time!”
Hearing Luo Ji’s order, even Luo Yong, who was in the heat of the battle, did not hesitate.
He forced back the young man wielding the long staff with two axes, then quickly broke out of the encirclement and swaggered away.
After running for a distance, Luo Ji looked back.
The barbarians of the opposing tribe were clearly wary of their strength and had no intention of chasing them.
A small variable was not enough to affect his plan, but he couldn’t be careless because of it…
“Luo Yong, give me a definite answer.”
“The person you fought just now, can you beat him?”
Facing Luo Ji’s direct question, Luo Yong didn’t think too much and replied directly.
“That kid is very agile, but his stamina is poor, and his physique is weak.”
“He was already breathing heavily after just a few rounds with me.”
“He could fight for at most five more rounds before his movements and reactions start to slow down.”
“At that point, I could cut him down with one axe!”
As the tribe’s first warrior, Luo Yong clearly knew more about combat than Luo Ji.
At the same time, his maximum loyalty also meant that Luo Yong was basically incapable of lying to him.
Therefore, a hint of understanding flashed in Luo Ji’s eyes upon receiving this definite answer, and he also felt relieved.
