Becoming a winner in life starts with becoming a shadow

Chapter 14 Kill the Floor Master.

However, the newly customized ring-handled sword was indeed very sharp, but Li De's strength was not enough. The ring-handled sword stopped helplessly after only a few centimeters of Goliath's skin.

Although Li De's palm was numb from the shock at this moment, Li De did not draw the sword, but held the handle tightly and pulled it down fiercely, and then retreated diagonally to the back.

Ah!

Goliath, who was punching Bert, was suddenly hit by Li De, and almost staggered and knelt on the ground.

No longer caring whether the punch could hit the prey, Goliath raised his injured foot slightly and kicked behind him. The wind pressure brought by the huge force brushed Li De's cheek. If he hadn't dodged, this kick would probably have kicked Li De's head.

In the words of someone, Li De was completely ignited at this moment.

Since getting the new ring-handled sword, this is the first time Li De has such a real feeling.

If the gap between him and Goliath was not too big, Li De even had the urge to let Bert stand aside and watch while he fought alone.

However, even though he was excited, Li De did not rush forward. The purpose of this monster-killing was only one, that is, to beat the opponent to accumulate great deeds and upgrade, so the most important thing to do was to find the right opportunity to attack.

With Bert as the main force to attract attention, it was not easy for Li De to find an opportunity. The ring-headed knife almost fell on Goliath's feet continuously.

It's not that Li De likes to chop feet, but fighting with a giant like a gatekeeper, without enough agility and speed, jumping up to chop is really a suicidal behavior.

Yes, Li De can indeed use [Teleport] to dodge when threatened in the air.

But Bert said at the beginning that the battle with Goliath is a war of attrition. If [Teleport] is used up early, then in the later stage, even getting close basically requires the courage to risk your life.

This is not good for accumulating great deeds. Li De must get enough output to get enough distribution on the great deeds.

Attacking only the legs on the ground, not only can you use your speed to dodge directly, but you can also seize the opportunity to affect Goliath's actions and relieve Bert's pressure.

With a clear understanding, although the cooperation between Reed and Bert cannot be said to be very tacit, Reed can always step forward and give Goliath a knife when Bert attracts Goliath's attention.

The red glow of burning magic power has never dispersed since the beginning, when Bert is aiming at the vital parts of Goliath's body, or Reed uses a knife to leave Goliath with injuries that must be repaired with magic power.

After fighting for half an hour, Goliath's breath has finally weakened a lot.

This is because he encountered an ordinary floor master, who has no brains and does not react quickly enough, allowing Bert to firmly hold the hatred and create enough opportunities for Reed.

If it was the mutant and enhanced Goliath that Bell encountered before, Reed would never encourage Bert to attack it.

Although Goliath with a much weaker breath is easier to deal with, Reed and Bert's consumption is not small.

But it was all worth it, especially for Li De. As a swordsman with a knife (Kendo means swords and knives are not distinguished in Japanese culture), Li De's progress in the past half hour was very great.

With the blessing of the skill [One-hearted Admiration], Li De's progress in knife skills in the past half hour was equivalent to several days of hard work.     Because Li De really didn't encounter objects that were difficult to cut in the past, at least the defense of Lv3 monsters was not enough for Li De to cut in with all his strength.

It was precisely because of this situation that Li De would improve his chopping skills while constantly attacking.

At this moment, Li De's full-strength attack could at least make the blade of the ring-headed knife sink into Goliath's body, which was a great improvement compared to a few centimeters half an hour ago.

You have to know that Goliath's defense is really strong. Even some LV5 monsters don't have as high defense as him.

Another half an hour passed, and the battle was so fierce that even the passage to the eighteenth floor was mostly blocked by the rubble blasted by Goliath.

After enduring the loud roar for half an hour, Li De felt a little uncomfortable at the moment.

However, his efforts finally paid off. After consuming Goliath's magic power for an hour, the red light spots produced by the burning magic power finally began to spread from Goliath. Li De also cut a wound that did not start to heal for more than 20 seconds for the first time.

"Li De, hold on. Goliath's magic power has been consumed to the limit. He can't heal himself. The battle will be over soon." Seeing that the damage began to take effect, Bert immediately shouted loudly.

To be honest, if it weren't for Li De's insistence, Bert himself would not be willing to fight with a monster that has the ability to burn magic power to heal its own injuries. This skill is really disgusting.

"I know, it's almost time to end it." Dede said. After experiencing the skill that can recover no matter how he fights, Li De finally understands the feelings of many forces in the pirate world when facing Kaido.

It is indeed too disgusting. Of course, this refers to the strong. The weak can only feel the despair of not seeing any hope.

If Li De were to fight Goliath in a one-on-one duel, before he reached the level of a swordsman, Li De would probably be beaten into autism by Goliath.

But it was all about to end. Goliath, who had been injured in both ankles and could no longer burn magic power to recover, finally fell to the ground and began to bear the final attack launched by Bert and Li De.

The next second, Bert jumped high and kicked Goliath's head with his right foot. Li De, who was far away, used [Teleport] to appear behind Goliath, and the ring-headed knife pierced into Goliath's back at a very fast speed.

With a scream, Goliath's body instantly turned into ashes, leaving only a magic stone the size of two fists.

"Bert, isn't this magic stone a little small!" Li De clearly remembered that when Rabbit killed the evolved version of Black Goliath, the magic stone left behind was taller than his.

"This is the only thing left by exhausting magic power, so I don't want to fight. It's a waste of time and there's nothing to gain." Bert replied with a pout.

"Well, the size is finally collected. I thought I could get a piece of Goliath's hard skin, but it seems that I'm unlucky." Li De said helplessly.

"Do you think you can get Goliath's hard hide just by beating them randomly? We have fought so many times and still haven't gotten many pieces of Goliath's hard hide. The drop rate of floor masters is much lower than that of ordinary monsters, but once they drop, they are high-level materials. Have a good rest. We should return to the ground. I just don't know if you have enough experience points to upgrade."
