Chapter 484: I Can Win
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Remember this feeling, as long as I can unleash it ten times, then I can use the Vanishing Step skill.” Lin Jie had already shown up on the other side—the skill he had used just now was the Vanishing Step technique! That technique was used by Tomorrow Night at the Blade Peak Canyon before, and Lin Jie had been studying it, thinking about it and comparing it to the steps he used normally.
Finally, with a solid foundation, he had learned the Vanishing Step at the critical moment. He successfully used it and dodged the attack!
After unleashing the step 10 times, he would be able to learn it as a skill! However, how hard was it? It was difficult for normal people to even successfully activate the step once after 100 or even 1,000 tries. Although Lin Jie successfully used the Vanishing Step, it was uncertain as to whether he was able to use it the second time.
“Come, come at me!” Lin Jie roared crazily and actually charged towards the Hungry Tiger’s claws head-on. This time, he did not use any skills or items and just dashed towards it. However, his body did not stop trembling, the branches and gravel actually passed through his body as they were smashed towards him!
“That is... Z Vibration! That’s a micro-level positioning which has high requirements on one’s skills!” shouted Star Kill in shock.
The so-called Z Vibration was that the player would control one’s body to sway left and right while not affecting one from moving forward. However, if it was just so, then why would there be “high requirements for one’s skills”? The Z Vibration, in the true sense, was when one was swaying, one would be able to adjust anytime to dodge skills and attacks.
For example, when two arrows were shot towards Lin Jie, he only needed to sway from left to right once by looking for the interval and stop for half a second to let the arrows pass. It may seem easy in words, but actually doing it was extremely difficult, and keeping it up would be even harder! However, Lin Jie had reached his peak condition now, and after grasping the feeling of the Vanishing Step, the accuracy of his positioning was even higher.
Shoosh!
Afterimages appeared one after the other, that was the effect of the Vanishing Step! Lin Jie finally believed it now that the top-tier techniques of different jobs could be exchanged and learned. It was no wonder that Tomorrow Night and Yesterday Morning went into the Blade Peak Canyon, they wanted the Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes!
ROAR—
In the blink of an eye, Lin Jie had already reached right in front of Hungry Tiger! What that guy said was correct, he did not use skills from the start to the end. As for the reason? iI was unknown to Lin Jie, but what could be confirmed was that person named Hungry Tiger was not used to using skills “in that so-called domain”!
That’s right since he had already grasped a top-tier technique, why was there a need to use skills? The battle would not be pure, and it wouldn’t be enough to show off! Imagine in a battle of two experts, one kept on using magnificent top-tier techniques to fight, but the other suddenly despicably shouted Frostbolt, wouldn’t it be abrupt?
As a Druid, Hungry Tiger did not use skills often, so his control over his body after transformation was not strong, thus he could not dodge in time. After Lin Jie neared Hungry Tiger, he directly charged forward and used Shield Cut and Army Obliteration to pierce open the fur on his calf. Blood instantly splurged out.

Boom—
After a successful attack, Hungry Tiger’s claws had already grabbed Lin Jie’s head before Lin Jie’s figure disappeared. However, still, no damage number popped up! That was because Lin Jie had used the Vanishing Step, only an afterimage was grabbed! However, after using it this time, Lin Jie could really feel his legs going soft, thus positioning was even harder. There were consequences to using it, just like Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes!
As known by all, the physical abilities of the characters in the game were almost limitless, one could do almost anything with one’s body to their liking since they wouldn’t die anyway. Surprisingly, in the process of unleashing top-tier techniques, it was different. Every technique had high requirements to one’s accuracy in movements, so even if one moved their toe a little more when using the technique, it was not counted as a perfect execution, the body would gradually feel uncomfortable.
Such as when Lin Jie used Vanishing Step, it was definitely not accurate or perfect enough. Even though Lin Jie could execute it, he would be tired. Using a common concept to explain, it would be “Fatigue Point”. When experts used top-tier techniques, 1 Fatigue Point would be produced, or even no Fatigue Points at all, so they could use it as they wished.
In Lin Jie’s case, 2, 3, or even 5 Fatigue Points would be produced each time. After using it a few times, Lin Jie’s body could not take it anymore.
Activating the skill was equal to draining his physical capacity, so it would result in the weakening effect of stiffening, one would be unable to attack, and damage dealt would be reduced.
Under the vigorous attacks by Hungry Tiger, Lin Jie, who was in a miraculous state, gritted his teeth and persevered, finally completing the Vanishing Step 10 times!
A faint system prompt message rang in his ear, the sound was literally heavenly.
—’You learned the skill [Vanishing Step], as a reward for learning a high-level skill of another job, your Agility’s growth has increased by 0.1. You received the achievement [First! Stealing Others Jobs’ Skill] and 1 New Age Accomplishment Point.’
“I’m the first?” Lin Jie was shocked, then what did Hungry Tiger count as?
No matter what, having New Age Accomplishment Points was a good thing! ‘How long has it been since I’ve received a New Age Accomplishment Point?’ Lin Jie instantly used the Vanishing Step, but his Vanishing Step was different from Tomorrow Night. Tomorrow Night could use it for 15 minutes, but for Lin Jie... he could only use it for 3 minutes, and the cooldown time was the same, half a month! It was a scam!
At that moment, Hungry Tiger attacked yet again! Lin Jie directly activated Vanishing Step, and only afterimages could be seen. The stripes on Hungry Tiger’s head, which formed the Chinese word “王”, looked as if they were all twisted together as he frowned. Hungry Tiger felt as if all his punches hit cotton, it didn’t seem right for him to use or not use his strength.
“Let’s go.” It was good that Lin Jie was tactful and directly ordered for all Savage Blade members to retreat. Lin Jie had gained much from this battle, so he needed to review the battle! Also, the side effects of the Vanishing Step were almost coming, he had to hurry and leave.
Retreat!
Baili Xuanyuan was about to activate his skill to prevent Lin Jie and the others from leaving, but he was stopped by Hungry Tiger.
Hungry Tiger said, “A cornered animal is a dangerous foe. You have gained much this time. Since Lone Wolf is unwilling to join us, he is our enemy! Meanwhile, the equipment in our hands are items we must obtain, so the organization will surely send people here. Then, I could negotiate with them and also help your guild to grow. Let’s go, we can go and take the Energy Crystals and help you seize the city first. With the City of Light in your hands, we could be more secretive whenever we make a move, thus concealing ourselves.”
...
“That guy is so strong.”
“Yeah, 15,000 HP after transformation and his Defense and Attack are still so abnormally high, he’s a f*cking GM, right?”
“Bullsh*t, there’s no GM in The New Age! However, his strength is a little too powerful, even if it was Lone Wolf...”
Everyone hid outside the Harpy’s Altar, discussing that fearsome character named “Hungry Tiger” with a lingering fear. All of them took a deep breath, they were a little afraid.
He was too powerful!
Meanwhile, Lin Jie sat on the ground. After Vanishing Step ended, his legs were already so numb it was like they didn’t exist, not to mention moving them. Such a situation would last for around 3 minutes.
“Are you alright?” Bu Yi sat beside Lin Jie and said, “Don’t be discouraged, you are already very strong, I believe you will definitely be able to beat him one day.”
“I can beat him,” said Lin Jie.
Bu Yi was stunned, then she put on a comforting smile and encouraged, “I believe you really can do it.”
“I really can beat him, now!” said Lin Jie seriously. “If that person is a member of some secret organization, then that organization might most probably be filled with experts who grasped top-tier techniques! Also, they must not have grasped only one. I even have such a speculation, if one did not grasp at least three top-tier techniques, then they would not even be able to join. Even if you grasped one top-tier technique, you would only be non-official members, dispensable cannon fodder.”
“What?” Everyone was astonished.
Zheng Ziliang trembled as he asked, “How is it possible for such an organization to exist? We can basically be counted as one of the strongest high-end players, right? Even we have not learned them yet! If they were all experts who grasped top-tier techniques, then how is there any hope for us to win?”
“I can win! When I say I can win, it means I can!” said Lin Jie in a serious tone. “They don’t know how to use skills! Maybe it’s due to them studying top-tier techniques, they are very unfamiliar with skills, so as long as I take advantage of that and increase our strength, together with the technique of being able to use skills proficiently, beating them is not difficult at all! That Hungry Tiger, if he stands in front of me again, I can definitely win.”
Baili Changcheng smiled bitterly and said, “I believe in you, try your best.”
“...” Lin Jie could not help but be speechless. Hungry Tiger was indeed too powerful, he had left a psychological trauma on everyone, even making them feel despair, thus being mistaken. If such a trauma was not dispelled, it would leave a heavy influence on everyone, that was not something good.
“Let’s go.” Lin Jie stood up.
“Let’s go. Are we going to continue farming the camps?” asked Baili Changcheng.
“No, all of you will be the audience, I will go and face that Hungry Tiger,” said Lin Jie seriously as he raised his Broken Blade. “I can win.”
Zheng Ziliang tried to persuade him. “Jie, there’s no need, right? Your Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes is still in cooldown, it’s too difficult to kill him. All of us recognize your strength, so you totally don’t need to put on a front.”
Dejected Night also nodded and said, “That’s right, we should settle the things presently, then go back and redeem ourselves. Since top-tier techniques really do exist in The New Age, we will definitely come in contact with them, learn them, and completely grasp them. Lone Wolf, give us some time, and we will help you.”
“Brother, calm down first,” said Baili Changcheng.
“Let’s go.” Lin Jie only said these two words before turning and heading towards the canyon.
Bu Yi followed behind him closely and said, “Top-tier skills all have a cooldown time, before the cooldown ends, using the techniques relies on one’s execution only. I guess he most likely wants to make use of Hungry Tiger’s ability to train his execution skills. Also, Lin Jie’s weapons are very strong, so he still has chances to win if they really fight.”
“I can win,” said Lin Jie.
“Enough, you’re just repeating the same few words.” Fat Cattle realized that he could not convince Lin Jie, so he gritted his teeth—he might as well be the bad guy. Fat Cattle, who activated his sarcasm mode, said relentlessly, “What makes you think that you will win? Who knows how many times stronger his skill is as compared to you? Over 10 of us had attacked for so long, and he healed himself with just a Rejuvenation. No matter how strong you are, could you defeat over 10 of us? Also, that guy had at least three top-tier techniques, how about you? Including your half-baked Vanishing Step, you only have two, are you looking for death?”
Lin Jie stopped for a moment, but he continued moving forward. “I also know three top-tier skills.”
Fat Cattle felt like crying. “I say, boss, can you not be so stubborn? How could we not know what you know? Where’s the third one? Show it to me.”
Lin Jie showed him.
Lin Jie’s skill panel was filled with skills, shining with their own unique light.
“Skills, are a top-tier technique that belongs to us exclusively! He’s bound to lose!” Lin Jie’s figure flashed as he entered the canyon.
