—’You have entered the [Spider Den].’
 

Within the Spider Den was dark and wet, spider webs could be seen all over, and once someone walked into it, they would be entangled and summon Elite spiders. However, before entering the map, Breeze Wind had given each of them a Fire Torch, so they just had to burn the spider web when they encountered it.
 

There were plenty of spider corpses scattered at the entrance—it looked like the monsters had been cleared beforehand.
 

Breeze Wind randomly chose a passageway and led the team inside. Lin Jie followed closely behind while Don’t Sweep Fallen Flowers snorted twice and followed inside too.
 

Spider Den’s interior was like a maze of passageways full of branch lines. At first, there were only 20 passageways, each passageway had 20 branch lines, and there were additional passageways on the branch lines, but only one road was correct and could head towards the den’s interior. Normally, players who came here to farm their levels would just train wherever they went, so the Spider Den had not been finished exploring yet.
 

Whoosh…
 

In front of when were four huge black spiders, their sharp mouths spat out a large black spider web, the Shield Specialist could not dodge in time and was instantly entangled in it. The spider web spread out and caused the Shield Specialist to enter the Bound state. The Shield Specialist’s skin also turned black, receiving 200 points of Poison Damage per second.
 

The spiders in the Spider Den were all level 60 Elites, and their health points were around 80,000.
 


The two Weapon Specialists each tank one, the Shield Specialist tank two, focus fire.
Breeze Wind gathered a Life Seed in her hands, and when the Shield Specialist’s head exploded, she waved her right hand, and the healing combination of Rejuvenation together with Resuscitation was released. A Healing-type Druid, which was normally called as Healer Druid, specialized in continuous healing, so their instant recovery ability was relatively poorer.
 

For example, now, the Shield Specialist had Rejuvenation, Resuscitation, Ancient Tree Prayer, and Brilliant Recover, these four recovery spells, which regen over 700 Health Points per second and lasted for 16 seconds. The final healing amount was much higher than Priests, but Healer Druids were unable to instant heal others, so if one received a large amount of damage in a short time, they would most likely be instakilled.
 

However, as expert Healer Druid players, of course, they would have some trump cards up their sleeves that could save the day in emergency situations. For example, Breeze Wind, if she did not have some special methods, then how was it possible for her to take on the responsibility of the whole team’s healer and persevere all along?
 

The spiders’ attacks had Poison, Paralysis, and Armor Penetration effects. The Shield Specialist could not take the damage after being bit twice. Since that Shield Specialist was not from an elite team, there was quite a huge difference compared to a true expert. Lin Jie was used to cooperating with the top Shield Specialists, such as Mixed Breathless and Inksnow, so looking at such a battling method of taking the damage head-on, Lin Jie simply could not bear to look.
 

While Don’t Sweep Fallen Flowers was busily activating Healing Spells to save the Shield Specialist’s life, he shouted,
Fck, Berserker, hurry, and attack! What are you in a daze for?

 


Shield Specialist, retreat, and focus fire in the air,
said Lin Jie abruptly and directly charged towards the Shield Specialist.
Don’t Sweep Fallen Flowers was about to scoff at Lin Jie, but in the next moment, the words that were about to leave his mouth were stuck in his throat, unable to speak.
 

Lin Jie arrived beside the Shield Cut and swung his longsword, then the spider, which was the size of a goat, was lifted. Lin Jie activated Army Obliteration and instantly pierced the spider’s stomach four consecutive times. Immediately after, he used Shield Cut and Dragon’s Roar, then the spider was knocked high up in the air!
 

Meanwhile, the other banged the wall with a sweep from Lin Jie and landed on the ground firmly after rebounding. It was then frozen by Ice Spirit Slash and instantly lifted into the air again in the next moment, knocking the original spider, which was already in the air away once again.
 


Floating Combo!
exclaimed Breeze Wind in astonishment.
Floating Combo was a technique that could only be used by jobs like Martial Artists, Weapon Specialists, or Berserkers, which focused on strength. They made use of the Strength Judgement in which their strength would be higher than their opponents, then attack the accurate parts of the opponents with a stronger force than before to cause them to float in the air continuously. However, the difficulty was extremely high, and the number of people who could use the Floating Combo in Never Setting Sun could be counted in two hands.
 

Knocking the monster into the air was simple, but wanting it to stay in the air was difficult! The strength in each sword strike would be difficult to control as only if each attack used more strength than the previous one, could provide a steady flow of thrusting force. Meanwhile, the weight of the monster itself, its strength, and skills would all need to be taken into consideration as once the direction deviated, the Floating Combo would naturally be interrupted.
 

Naturally, the others noticed Lin Jie’s execution too, and were dumbfounded.
 


Using monsters to hit monsters to control it continuously!

 


He actually has a four consecutive strike technique, so powerful. I remember that the Berserker skill was at most Double Strike, right?

 


It’s dropping, dropping, it went up again! Fck, Rebel’s Fight could be used like this too?

 

That group of players could count as experts when compared with normal players as their technique was not bad. However, they were much weaker as compared to Lin Jie. Now that Lin Jie had changed his identity, naturally, he had to use some other technique, or else people might suspect him. The Floating Combo was not counted as a high-end technique, but it was extremely difficult to do the combo perfectly. However, Lin Jie, who had grasped the Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes, could use the technique freely.
 


Attack, why are you all in a daze?
shouted Lin Jie.
 


Oh, oh…
The team members came to their senses. They had subconsciously wanted to see how long Lin Jie could continue the combo as their guild leader Scorching Sun could use Floating Combo for 15 seconds.
 

Breeze Wind scanned Lin Jie carefully. ‘I had really misjudged him.’ At first, she had been under the impression Lin Jie was quite capable from just looking at his gear, but who would have thought that he would actually be an expert?
Just as Breeze Wing finished thinking, the spider, which had been knocked into the air countless times, had already died from all the concentrated attacks on it. It was unable to even attack once.
It was thanks to the spider’s body being light that Lin Jie could use Floating Combo easily. If it was something heavy, then it would not be that simple to connect the attacks.
 


Continue, the Weapon Specialist who is almost dying, knock the spider over.
Lin Jie caused the second spider to fly away, and he still had the leisure to take care of the Weapon Specialist beside him. That Weapon Specialist was overwhelmed by the pain from being bitten by the spider, so once he heard what Lin Jie had said, he was moved to tears of gratitude. He instantly knocked the spider towards Lin Jie.
 


Don’t just stand there, continue attacking,
said Lin Jie. He swung his sword and aimed accurately at the spider’s mouth. He pierced its mouth thrice, and blood instantly splurged out intensively.
 

Breeze Wind’s pupils constricted.
Bleeding with normal attacks?

 


OMG, it’s bleeding, it’s bleeding!
Don’t Sweep Fallen Flowers, who was originally the most dissatisfied with Lin Jie, was cheering the loudest.
 

Everyone was speechless, they knew that Don’t Sweep Fallen Flowers’ biggest dream was to play the Berserker, but due to various reasons, he could only choose the Priest. It was unknown how many videos that guy had gathered regarding Codename Lone Wolf. Once, he had the time he would open the videos to appreciate them a few times, which rendered everyone speechless.
 

Breeze Wind was extremely surprised, Bleeding was the most practical abnormal state in battle. For example, the attacks of Berserkers would have chances to cause Bleeding, which were given by the system. However, the chances of this type of system-given Bleeding was almost non-existence and really relied on one’s luck greatly.
 

Of course, Bleeding not only relied on passive chances, but it could also be manipulated through human effort. There would be a high chance that Bleeding occurred if one attacked the same place continuously.
However, the
same place
here did not mean continuously attacking the places such as the arm or leg, but attacking the exact same spot! It was extremely challenging and tested one’s execution skills! It was possible for one to miss even when practicing on scarecrows, not to mention living creatures that would move around!
 

Therefore, Breeze Wind was shocked when Lin Jie’s normal attack caused Bleeding. Also, that man actually did it so casually, it was obvious that such a thing was simply normal for him, he did it without any extra effort.
 

‘Where did such an expert come from?’ Breeze Wind buried the thoughts in her heart and shouted,
Hurry and focus fire, Shield Specialist give him that spider too, all out on attacking.

 

The Shield Specialist had caught his breath after the first spider was killed. Since when the others were focusing fire on the other two spiders, he had to tank the final spider.
 

Seeing Lin Jie’s powerful performance, Breeze Wind could not help but want to test the limits of Lin Jie’s abilities, so she added another spider for him to control. It was not as simple as 1+1=2, with an additional monster, the difficulty level instantly increased by a few times.
 


Alright,
replied the Shield Specialist as he flung the last spider towards Lin Jie.
 

Lin Jie calmly received the spider, and the number of monsters he was controlling instantly increased to three. One of them was infinitely being knocked into the air, while the other two banged against the wall from his powerful attacks. The two spiders would also be knocked into the air to hit that spider floating in the air from time to time to increase the time that spider stayed in the air. As for the emotions that Breeze Wind really wanted to see, such as
embarrassment
and
irritation
, could not be seen at all.
 

Lin Jie was very calm, and he was even expressionless when using Combo Attack as if it was par for the course to Lin Jie.
 

As a Healer Druid, she even did not have the chance to use Rejuvenation, and the battle had already ended. Normal spiders would drop materials, such as [Spiderweb], [Spider’s Eye], and [Spider’s Leg], which belonged to miscellaneous items, so no one wanted to pick them up.
 


Brother, you’re awesome!
Don’t Sweep Fallen Flowers was instantly filled with admiration for Lin Jie. If it was others, he might not be like such, but the problem was that Lin Jie was a Berserker! The sarcastic remarks, in the beginning, were already long forgotten. He gave a thumbs-up and praised,
That Floating Combo, it is 1% as powerful as my idol.

 

Lin Jie did not dislike this outgoing guy, so he jokingly asked,
Who is your idol? If I have a chance to meet him, I’d like to face him.

 


Codename Lone Wolf!
Once Don’t Sweep Fallen Flowers mentioned this name, he instantly became crazed.
 


Uh…
Lin Jie’s lips twitched, so this guy was his fan?
 


You don’t know how awesome Codename Lone Wolf is, he—

 


Let’s continue our advancement.
Breeze Wind interrupted Don’t Sweep Fallen Flowers in time before he started to blabber. She said,
Berserker, I see that you’re quite capable, so the next spiders will be tanked by you. You don’t have a problem with that, right? Until now, we have not successfully finished exploring the Spider Den, but with you, we might be able to complete it.

 

Lin Jie chuckled.
Then what if we meet a Hidden Boss? Truthfully speaking, this team can’t beat it.

 

Breeze Wind stopped in her tracks and remembered Lin Jie’s
all-DPS team
again. At first, she had thought it was impossible, but now thinking back, with Lin Jie’s Floating Combo ability, it might really be worth a try. However, on second thought, the Boss’ body weight and Strength Judgement would definitely be levels apart from Normal Elites, so it was not that simple to connect the attacks to form the combo. She smiled.
We’ll talk about it when we meet the Hidden Boss.

 


Alright.
Lin Jie sighed and followed the team to continue advancing.
