My Skill Bar is Full of Monster Skills-Chapter 49: Offense Is the Best Defense

Just like now!

"Clang!!!"

After almost three overlapping loud bangs, Chris was hammered back three or four steps.

Immediately afterward, he sat down on the ground, and under the powerful impact, was shaken several meters away. The kite shield covered in iron on his left arm showed a clear dent.

This was still the result of Reya disrupting by shooting an arrow at the gray dwarf opposite Chris.

It shows the terrifying power of the gray dwarf in gigantification form.

Actually, even an official warrior just entering the Classes would have to go all out to resist the explosion of a gray dwarf with a challenge level of one in gigantification.

So, Chris being able to achieve this level is already very impressive.

And Grande’s situation is even worse because the gray dwarf opposite him didn’t have Fabian’s crossbow arrow interference, so, in gigantification, the opponent could freely unleash hammer strikes.

This led to Grande not only being knocked to the ground but also suffering some form of soft tissue injury on the shield-bearing left arm.

At this moment, the only figure standing at the scene is the one wearing the horned helmet.

A second ago.

Unlike Chris and Grande who were using shields to block, Raine’s left arm muscles swelled to their limit, veins popping, and the left hand steel shield unexpectedly swung forward with a whistling sound.

As it turns out, Raine used the combat skills ’Shield Bash’ to respond to the gigantification eruption of the gray dwarf in front.

Because the moment the gray dwarf applied gigantification, Raine with heightened focus quickly judged that this hammer strike from the opponent under gigantification would be extremely terrifying in power.

So shortening the path that the opponent’s warhammer moves and reducing its power is the effective way to resist this move.

Thus, the situation of attack against attack appeared at this moment.

Yet even so, the moment they clashed!

With sparks flying, Raine only felt an indescribable immense force traveling up his left arm, accompanied by a strong shock, almost making it hard for him to hold onto the brand-new steel shield.

The whole person had no choice but to retreat a step to withstand the opponent’s gigantification strike!

But the opponent was not well off either, although not injured, yet completely unexpected that Raine would switch from defense to offense. The warhammer in the gray dwarf Sos’ hands slipped off, bounced onto the rock wall, and fell to the ground.

If Humbert were present at this moment, he would surely praise Raine’s clever response.

Bearing a shield does not mean just passive defense.

Shield Bash signifies - ’sometimes, attack is the best defense!’

But the problem is, even though Raine blocked the opponent’s strike and even slightly gained the upper hand, the collapse of Chris and Grande still caused the situation of the Howling Hunter Squad to sharply deteriorate!

"Grande!" From the back, Reya urgently called out.

Due to her combat skill Aimed Strike being powerful yet requiring nearly two seconds of charging and aiming to unleash.

So, under the situation where Chris and the others were blocking upfront just now, it was impossible to aim at the shorter gray dwarf, and by the time the gray dwarf grew gigantified and could be aimed at, their line had already collapsed.

This forced Reya to take the role of a fire brigade member, continuously drawing her bowstring to create an opportunity for Chris who got knocked away to stand up again.

But she, after all, is not a Classes, and cannot support two people simultaneously.

As for Fabian, at this moment, he had already leapt from the front attempting a direct confrontation with the gigantified gray dwarf, intending to buy time for Grande to stand up.

Yet anyone knows, even an official rogue facing a gigantified gray dwarf warrior in a direct duel is definitely not a wise move, not to mention a rogue apprentice.

Moreover, Grande’s current state, even if he stands up, even if he can hold the shield, he absolutely cannot withstand the current intensity of hammer strikes from the gray dwarves.

This means, without a breakthrough, the entire squad could collapse at any moment!

"Boom!!"

In a flash of lightning!

A strong figure dashed in from the side, directly forcing the gigantified gray dwarf intending to smash Grande’s head back several steps, making it fall towards the rock wall side of the hall.

It was Raine who first displayed Barbaric Charge in actual combat.

"Focus fire!" Raine shouted!

Along with the roar, he raised his warhammer high.

And upon hearing Raine’s reminder, whether it was Reya or Fabian, it was like waking from a dream.

Facing the gray dwarves, gigantification, consecutive sudden changes, even the captain Reya was momentarily taken aback.

But Raine understood very clearly that under the current circumstances, if a gray dwarf cannot be severely injured or killed quickly, soon their entire squad would fall apart!

Therefore, attack is the best defense!

....

Underground dark river.

"Sir, those were elite members of my clan, just sending them to die like this is really..." Withered Beard pleaded bitterly.

"Damn fool! If the adventurers above become suspicious, they will certainly continue searching for clues."

"I instructed you to send eight winged kobolds so that the human adventurer squads that follow would believe the previous group of adventurers died from the ambush of winged kobolds!"

"If there were only three, they would likely become suspicious!"

"Sir, but even if they find out, how can they defeat the great you?"

"Idiots! Killing this second human adventurer squad will only prompt the Adventurer’s Association to send even stronger teams!"

"(Undercommon) Damn it! Thorne, how many of your Dark Furnace clan members are guarding the upper secret passage?" The person in the shadows changed language, speaking to the adjacent shadow.

"(Undercommon) Same as last time, there’s a three-person sub-squad, don’t worry, my brother Sos is also there." Like the sound of rocks rubbing, a voice echoed.

Meanwhile, a muscular dwarf figure clad in silver-gray heavy plate armor emerged from the darkness.

"That shouldn’t pose any problem." The blonde middle-aged man relaxed, nodding.

But soon, as if worrying about something, he continued: "(Undercommon) However, make sure not a single one escapes, Thorne, you’d better go yourself."

"(Undercommon) Aiel, asking me to kill people is outside the agreement, you need to pay more." The gray dwarf named Thorne did not readily agree.

"Thorne, don’t forget the reason for hiring you is to ensure safety here, now someone is..."

The gray dwarf named Thorne, who is larger than regular gray dwarves, had a hint of cunning flash in his eyes and said:

"(Undercommon) If they charge in, naturally we will resolve it. But the current problem is, they haven’t charged down yet."
