The moment Shi Feng landed on the ground, the Crystal Warwolf arrived at his back like a savage gale. Without giving Shi Feng any chance to defend, the three heads of the Crystal Warwolf opened their jaws to bite down on Shi Feng.
"Guild Leader!" Fire Dance was greatly shocked. Immediately, she closed in on the Crystal Warwolf, sending a 3-star Kidney Strike to its body.
However, even a controlling skill like Kidney Strike had no effect on the Crystal Warwolf.
Just as the fangs of the Crystal Warwolf were about to close on Shi Feng's head, Shi Feng managed to cross his swords and execute Parry in the nick of time.
_Boom!_
The floor beneath Shi Feng instantly cracked from the force.
"What a strong fellow," Shi Feng laughed bitterly.
Although Parry allowed players to block the physical damage of an attack, it did not neutralize the force of the impact.
There was no healer in the party right now. If Shi Feng ate another attack, he would definitely lose his life.
From this brief exchange, Shi Feng had also gotten a general understanding of how much more powerful the Crystal Warwolf had become. In Shi Feng's estimation, although the Crystal Warwolf had not received much of an increase in terms of strength, its current speed was at least 30% faster than before it went berserk.
At this moment, only by equipping the Heavenly Dragon's Breath could Shi Feng have a chance at grasping victory. Otherwise, he would only receive unilateral abuse from the Boss.
Unfortunately, although reaching 200 points in Agility was a simple task, it was not easy for a Swordsman like Shi Feng to attain 120 points in Intelligence. Moreover, very few plate-armor equipment meant for Swordsmen had the Intelligence Attribute on it; those that did would be considered garbage equipment.
Seeing that its attack had failed to kill its prey, the Crystal Warwolf immediately rotated its body, its diamond-like tail whipping at Shi Feng as it did so.
As Parry was still on Cooldown, Shi Feng had no choice but to activate one of his lifesaving skills, Defensive Blade.
Defensive Blade was currently at Level 4, and it protected Shi Feng from nine ranged attacks or four melee attacks.
Defensive Blade was a skill that provided complete immunity to any attack, be it damage or the resulting impact.
It was one of the must-have basic combat skills for Swordsmen.
As for why Shi Feng had chosen to use Parry first instead of Defensive Blade, it was for the sole purpose of determining the combat power of the berserk Crystal Warwolf. Only by experiencing the force of the impact could Shi Feng make the best judgment.
Meanwhile, the conclusion Shi Feng arrived at was to face the Crystal Warwolf head-on. If he tried to escape, he would only die faster.
Following which, he raised the Abyssal Blade up in the air. Green electric arcs surrounded the body of the sword as it moved to meet with the snowy, sharp claws of the Crystal Warwolf.
Thundering Flash!
The green electric arcs pierced the Crystal Warwolf's body, causing -572, -1,623, and -1,204 damage to it. Although only one out of the three arcs achieved a critical hit, the attack also managed to trigger the curse of the Abyssal Blade, inflicting the Doom Curse on the Crystal Warwolf. Immediately, all of the Crystal Warwolf's Attributes were reduced by 20%.
