He Dies, Then I Surrender

The opponent is a ranged Mental Specialist.

I am a melee fighter, a violent warrior; once I step into melee range, that's my domain.

The opponent was just hit by Meteor Spell and is in a state of severe injury.

A series of thoughts flashed through Ouyang Heng's mind; he had no reason not to charge forward!

"Retreat, avoid battle. You can't beat me, wait for me to come." Qiao Rui's voice seemed to resonate from the depths of her heart.

However, Ouyang Heng turned a deaf ear. He preferred to trust his own judgment, and in a sense... Qiao Rui's obstruction became the source of Ouyang Heng's even greater anger.

No man wants to be looked down upon by his woman—although Qiao Rui is not objectively Ouyang Heng 'Ouyang Heng woman, that doesn't stop him from treating her as his possession. Moreover, there's a subtle, unspoken connection between Bai Xiaowen and Qiao Rui...

Ouyang Heng rushed in front of Bai Xiaowen and slashed down with his sword.

Bai Xiaowen didn't even glance at the sword; instead, he threw a punch, wreathed in flames, aimed at Ouyang Heng's chest.

Bai Xiaowen is well aware of the current situation.

In Melee Specialty, Bai Xiaowen is no match for Ouyang Heng. His current advantage lies in his formidable physique and overwhelming strength!

Therefore, forget about normal dodging and attacking tactics; abandon defense and trade blows for blows – that's the Kingly Way.

However, it was Ouyang Heng backed down.

Seeing Bai Xiaowen's punch, which was as powerful as a typhoon, Ouyang Heng's eyes narrowed.

His battle-hardened instincts allowed him to fully sense the terror of that punch. Only power-type bosses in high-difficulty planes could exert such Overawing Presence when they threw a punch!

Ouyang Heng flipped his wrist, and the greatsword he had swung out spun in an arc. He braced himself with the broadside of the blade with his left hand—his Melee Specialty were indeed formidable. In an instant, he switched from offense to defense, and the broadside of the blade blocked Bai Xiaowen's fist.

Bang!

Ouyang Heng was violently shaken, his defensive stance completely shattered. Bai Xiaowen's punch, still carrying considerable force, slammed into his chest.

The sound of bones breaking rang out, Ouyang Heng's remaining Life Value, less than half, plummeted by over fifty points, bringing him to the danger zone.

In fact, if Ouyang Heng hadn't changed his move at the last minute and Block some of the damage, that punch would have been enough to kill him.

However, it was precisely because of his hasty change of tactics that he was unable to completely Parry Bai Xiaowen's punch. Although Bai Xiaowen's strength was close to 80 points, which was astonishingly high, Ouyang Heng, as Hero Class warrior with strength as his specialty, had a strength attribute close to 70 points, which was already comparable to a level 7 strength-type Boss Tier.

It's important to know that Ouyang Heng's Tidal Giant Fighter class passive skill, "Tidal Force," includes a passive ability that increases base strength by 20%.

Bai Xiaowen followed Bu Jinji.

Stunned and staggering backward, Ouyang Heng's eyes revealed fear. He now knew the terrifying power Bai Xiaowen possessed; with his Life Value below one-third, a single punch would surely kill him.

A wave of regret washed over him. Ouyang Heng deeply regretted not heeding Qiao Rui's advice.

The next second, a beam of light enveloped Ouyang Heng Ouyang Heng, then shone on the area around him. Ouyang Heng's health was suddenly boosted, instantly recovering to over 70%!

It was Qiao Rui who made the move; she only had time to use one skill: Life Healing.

This skill can restore Life Value. If there are more injured teammates around Ouyang Heng, the healing amount will be distributed among the other teammates, which is considered a group heal; if there is only Ouyang Heng in the range, the single-target healing amount will be increased.

After unleashing this skill, Qiao Rui braced herself with one hand and gracefully leaped down from the second floor.

However, it was too late.

Bai Xiaowen even had the leisure to smile at Qiao Rui. They were still under the charm buff of the "Peony Behind Leaves Painting, so smiling a little wouldn't hurt...

A crimson light flashed across Bai Xiaowen's body as his Blood Rage was unleashed!

The second strike of the Kusanagi-Style Ancient Martial Arts —an elbow strike—hit Ouyang Heng's chest.

What would be the effect of Blood Rage effect that adds 450 points of damage, and an elbow strike from the Kusanagi-Style Ancient Martial Arts that deals nearly 80 points of strength?

A large section of Ouyang Heng's chest caved in, and he spat out a mist of blood. His figure quickly transformed into white light and disappeared from the battlefield.

Ouyang Heng died in battle!

"Boss..." Square warrior Wu Chaojie stared blankly at Ouyang Heng turning into light. The next second, Bai Xiaowen had already charged in furiously!

Wu Chaojie tried to run, but he was restricted by the Butcher's Rot skill, which drastically reduced his movement speed.

One punch! Two punches!

Wu Chaojie, the main tank of Yanda University, actually only withstood two punches from Bai Xiaowen before disappearing in a flash.

"Damn it, how is this Corpse Monster so powerful! My dual resistances have been reduced by half, turning me into a paper tank... I've been attacking it for so long, and I've only lost a few health points? If it were a one-on-one fight... I might not be able to beat this Corpse Monster, right?" These were the thoughts churning in Wu Chaojie's mind as he was forcibly teleported away.

The battle is still ongoing, but it's nearing its end.

Bai Xiaowen raised his hand, and on the rooftop of the side building, four Skeleton Sword-and-Shield Soldier appeared in unison around the mage Zheng Bing Zheng Bing, who had all his attributes halved, and began to gang up on him...

On the other side, Xiang Hui and the opposing Snipe engaged in a chase, the two agile Awakened individuals staging scenes between buildings that resembled Hollywood blockbusters. Their unimaginable parkour moves were enough to make even the most skilled parkour masters of the Common Era change careers...

However, Xiang Hui, armed with the Thunderforged Grappling Hook Gun, was ultimately faster than his opponent.

The Snipe from Yanda University was named Xie Yixin, and she was a girl. She was being chased repeatedly and was covered in layers of blood. She didn't even have time to bandage herself—in fact, bandaging wouldn't have helped. She could only bleed to death in frustration.

In fact, Snipe Xie Yixin is quite strong in a team. If she has cover and space to output damage, she can unleash explosive damage. Unfortunately, this team did not build their tactics around Xie Yixin at all. She was only positioned as a harasser, and when her teammates were unable to provide support, she could only be hunted down and Cool Cool by the assassin.

Bai Xiaowen faced Qiao Rui, and the two looked at each other.

A few seconds later, Qiao Rui blushed slightly and looked away.

Li Shuyi followed Qiao Rui and jumped from the floor behind.

"Xiao Wen, I'm sorry... I really don't know what to do with her," Li Shuyi muttered sadly.

"It's alright, the situation is settled." Bai Xiaowen smiled and reassured Li Shuyi, then looked at Qiao Rui again.

Before Bai Xiaowen could speak, Qiao Rui spoke first.

"Am I the only one left? I give up."

"What?!" *N.

"Qiao Rui, what are you saying? We can't surrender!" Zheng Bing, the mage being attacked by several Skeleton Sword-and-Shield Soldier on the rooftop, shouted angrily. He was truly unwilling to accept defeat.

"Sorry, Zheng Bing... we can't win," Qiao Rui gently tossed her hair. "Why don't you guys kill Zheng Bing first? I'll surrender once he's dead."
