ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 271: Sword Wolf Turns Out to Be a Thunderfire Beast, Part 1 PART 1

The way in which the unique skill “Scrap and Build” of the “Destroyer” subclass works, is that it reduces the durability of the equipped weapons to zero, and then exchanges it for power boost. Of course, the boost in power is equal to the multiplied amount of the durability that was used up at the moment of the destruction.

And the way in which the system of ShangriLa Frontier works is that the higher the weapon’s rarity, the higher its durability. For example, if I were to sacrifice the Scorpion Gauntlets here, a weapon of the highest rarity that uses ultra rare materials as its components, I would be able to acquire the firepower that would be able to easily top the most powerful classes and weapons.

And the “Novice’s Handguards” is a weapon that is given to the player as a reward after completing the final quest from the Monk Training questline, one that is focused on increasing your battle parameters tremendously, as well as possessing extraordinarily high durability.

And since that final quest of the Monk questline can be repeated as many times as the player likes, you could technically acquire unlimited supply of those weapons. This gives the “Destroyer” class some crazy synergy potential. You would also think that this is some super advanced strategy, but that’s actually wrong. This is nothing more but a basic thing that every Destroyer out there knows about.

And above all else, this skill has great synergy when it comes to the Monk class and their characteristic of fighting using nothing else but your bare hands.

「Yellow, and then Red…… Two Color Combination! “Daidai Crush!!”」

An orange aura envelops Katsu’s fists, and the power that dwells within it is the power to greatly increase the damage inflicted by your critical hits. Combined that with the effects of Scrap and Build, and you would get even stronger, even more broken power than before.

「Now I will need just one minute to knock you out for good.」

「I’ll come to regret those words!」

The glittering particle effects surrounding Riberios right now were definitely a testament of his power as the high level player.

Because of his “Sword Saint” subclass and the powerful skills he had at his disposal, there were rumors that in terms of the actual raw combat power Riberios could easily overtake Saig100. Now, whether it was true or not, one thing was for certain: if a Level Ninety Nine Extended managed to hit Katsu with a powerful weapon additionally boosted by a powerful skill like that, it would be all over for Katsu with just one hit. That magic frozen sword was not to be underestimated.

「This is bad, unless I cast aside my human shape, there is no way for me to be able to survive that at this distance.」

「Why…… It did not……!?」

Katsu strikes the sword from the side, trying to redirect its trajectory. Normally he would have suffered a debuff since the edge of the blade was covered in ice magic, but thanks to his own buffs he managed to avoid that situation.

In the first place, the distance at which the Galdiator sub-class can truly shine and show what it is made of is extremely close range. That is why even if Riberios will try to put some distance in between them to strike, Katsu will be ready to follow suit, attacking at close range and making it impossible for Riberios to try and use new strategies or different kinds of attacks.

「In my official form, I have only managed to break the barrier of eighty…… But as far as I am aware of, only five to six people in the whole game are able to deal with this.」

A blow that intentionally looked as if it was about to miss its mark. The moment when Riberios thought that this was his moment to shine, he received a mighty blow to his jaw from the other side, one that he forgot to be aware of.

Then Katsu turned to do a splendid roundhouse kick, one that was aimed at the hand in which Riberios was holding his sword. The blow connects without fail, and while Riberios was staggered for a moment, he let go of his sword and it plummeted towards the ground.

「There is always going to be an opening.」

「I’ve got you now!」

「Ahh, sorry to break it to you, but that was more than obvious……」

「Wha……」

Without a moment of hesitation, Katsu launches and offensive against unsuspecting Riberios. Just because he procured another magic sword, this one covered in burning flames, he thought he might have the upper hand here. However, since Katsu knew about that sword from the information that Pencilgton gave him, he was more than prepared for such turn of events. A surprise attack is hardly a surprise if the other side is expecting it.

「Well, what can I say here…… When it comes to person versus person kind of battles, I did not think that he would have any problems here. I mean, his opponent is just straight up bad.」

「N-No way……」

「Red, Blue, and Yellow……」

A mixture of three vivid colors results into a color that was jet black.

But even so, Riberios was not yet beaten. He still had weapons in his inventory, and he still had healing items he could use.

But truth to be told, even though he was still able to fight, he would not be able to withstand what was coming his way right now.

「Three Color Combination! Fist Technique! “Overpowering Black Opposition!”」

There was an explosion. A mighty jet black explosion that once managed to overthrow a powerful Tactical War Horse now erupted right in the middle of Riberio’s’ stomach.

Because he was so confident in his own abilities as a gamer, Riberios did not take any kind of precautions against player versus player type of warfare. Because of that, his armor was pretty light with the emphasis on appearances, and there was no part that would protect his abdomen in any kind of way. It was such a basic flaw that I was wondering just how in the hell did he not see that coming?

「Ugh! Ooobuehh……」
