Four Split Personalities

In summary, this skill isn’t as practical as it appears. It’s not that it isn’t powerful, but the threshold is simply too high. From a player’s perspective, those who major in the Martial Monk profession and follow the Qi Sect path can typically master this skill between levels 20 and 25. Currently, there are approximately nearly twenty thousand people who have learned this skill, yet only one player truly excels at using the "Wind, Fire, Thunder" ability.

That individual is the backbone of the Red Constellation Club, the top electronic sports professional in the country, with the gaming ID[Waking Dragon]—RAD•Li Lei, Li Lei!

Yes, it’s none other than the steady holder of the No. 4 spot on the players’ combat power leaderboard, a rank that he maintains daily despite the ever-shuffling list.

He is a true powerhouse, with no weaknesses in his awareness, intelligence, written tests, physique, hearing, spirit, judgment, reflexes, spoken English, live performance, reading comprehension, or essay analysis.

We won’t delve deep into his achievements now, but his combat power, ranked only below that of certain individuals such as Cordova and Ji Xiaodao, is testament to his strength. He previously defeated the formerly sixth-ranked Jungle Ranger Brother Dou in the arena in a matter of seconds, employing precisely the "Wind, Fire, Thunder" technique.

All in all, compared to the nearly celebrity-level [Waking Dragon], High-level Monk Sergei’s use of "Wind, Fire, Thunder" seems like a joke. Although it looks quite flashy, it merely knocked down Anthony Dabus with a form-imbued punch, reducing his Health Points by about 30%, a far cry from the complexity and power of Waking Dragon’s combined skills: Cloud Bursting Baji Quan, Flame Form Cannon, and Thunderous Hao Yoo Jin.

Hmm, it was quite a painful fart, at least for Anthony Dabus.

"I, protect, Night Song, sis, must!"

The Ogre that had fallen scrambled up and roared, charging again. Although his alignment was "Chaotic Evil," Anthony was much like a child; he at least knew who treated him well and wanted to protect those he cared about. This did not conflict with his alignment, as in most cases, the more ignorant the child, the more chaotic and evil.

Calling it chaotic because they lack moral discernment; labeling it evil since they don’t understand kindness.

Consequently, Anthony charged again. From Dabus’ player perspective, Anthony even activated a skill.

[Crush You]

Active Skill

Prerequisites: A healthy Ogre

Cost/Restrictions: 200 Physical Strength Value

[Remark 1: Yes! Smash his head! Kick his face!]

[Remark 2: Dabus... fool...]

"Watch the timing, Anthony, the opponent is very strong!"

Nervous, Dabus promptly advised him, staring intently at Sergei while frantically thinking and shouting into Anthony’s ear, "He is a master of physical combat, you must catch his movements and make the most reasonable judgment at the perfect moment—now, kick him!"

"Roar!"

Anthony, whose weapon had been slapped away by Sergei, bellowed and raised his dirty big foot, kicking towards him, only to be casually caught by the ankle and forcefully pushed to the ground by his opponent.

This tussle didn’t decrease their Health Points by much. Anthony got up using his hands and feet and swung his cauldron-sized fist towards Sergei’s left face: "You are, bad man! Anthony, kill you!"

[Ogre Heavy Punch]

Talent Effects:

Successful modification: Transforms into a powerful slap, silencing the target briefly, with a minor chance of enraging the target and generating significant aggro.

Failed modification: Anthony performs a Scissor Hand, just being cute.

[Remark 1: Shut him up!]

[Remark 2: Anthony, good boy(≧∇≦)ﾉ]

This time, as Dabus wasn’t quick enough to keep up with Anthony’s response, he couldn’t offer any advice on the latter’s actions. In fact, even if he had noticed in time, he probably wouldn’t have tried to "Modify," believing that the damage from a slap would definitely be inferior to a punch.

But punching was useless...

High-level Monk Sergei just snorted coldly and threw a punch head-on without dodging, clashing fiercely with Anthony’s fist, which was several sizes larger than his, blocking the attack without any damage.

In contrast, Anthony had two of his finger bones broken under Sergei’s strike, his naive big face twisted in pain.

"Is that all you’ve got?"

Sergei sneered as he pulled back his fist and shook his neck with a crackle, "I heard Two-headed Ogres are supposed to be strong, aren’t you just a mere birth defect?"

Dabus’s face was as still as water, "You shameless, vicious, despicable..."

"@#*%!"

Anthony bellowed an incomprehensible swear word he heard somewhere, not even understanding what it meant, and with his rough arms, he scooped up Sergei, repeating loudly, "@#*%!"

"No swearing, Anthony!"

Dabus said angrily.

[Pincer Kill]

Talent Influence:

Successful Modification: Dabus will execute an additional headbutt on the target, causing moderate physical damage and a small chance of causing bleeding.

Failed Modification: Anthony also attempts a second headbutt, resulting in the heads colliding and a high chance of causing minor self-inflicted bleeding damage.

[Note 1: Multiple heads are always good...right?]

[Note 2: Anthony...didn’t mess up...Dabus...why...]

[Note 3: Congratulations sent by Ainz Ooal Gown, Saint Seiya, Huang Gai, Tora, Red Helmet Green Bear Beast, Kuroyukihime, Sakura Manjuu (crossed out), and others.]

Anthony suddenly tightened his arms, giving Sergei no time to react, and went straight for a headbutt to his forehead.

Thump!

Anthony grimaced and raised his head.

"Good job, Anthony, hold still now!"

Dabus called out in a panic and then followed by heavily smashing his head down, landing another crisp headbutt on Sergei’s freshly hit forehead.

Thump!

The third hit.

Thump!

The fourth.

Thump!

"Ow ow ow!"

Unable to hold on any longer, the Ogre collapsed face-up on the ground, both heads oozing blood, its huge body trembling incessantly.

Sergei, who had just responded with three headbutts to the two, grinned and stepped on Anthony•Dabus’s stomach...

"Had enough? Now it’s my turn~"
