BXBX NOVEL Chapter 327 - The Goblin Slayer
Charging towards the Weapon Master Goblin King, Adam used most of his speed and strength in the charge as he slashed towards the Goblin King\'s stomach with his daggers.
The Weapon Master Goblin King also took out two daggers and blocked Adam\'s attack with ease before beginning his own attack.
Adam and the Goblin King\'s arms and daggers were moving at incredible speeds and were mere blurs to the Goblin Beasts that were watching from the sidelines of the Core Part of the Goblin Beast City.
They were both impressed with each other\'s blade skills and continued parrying, countering and attacking each other and Adam was being suppressed at the start of their battle, but was steadily improving in terms of dagger skills.
As their battle went on, Adam slowly reduced the speed and strength he was using, which helped the Weapon Master Goblin King begin pushing him back, but Adam wanted to test and improve his fighting skills as much as he could.
The Goblin King began gaining the upper hand in their dagger battle and Adam began suffering slash and stab wounds all over his body, but he still had a smile on his face and it was the most fun battle he had experienced so far.
He didn\'t want to win using his ability and raw power, which he probably could have done, and instead wanted to use it as an opportunity to test his combat capabilities.
Adam was refining his moves and fighting technique against the Weapon Master Goblin King, and was not only improving because of the pressure that his opponent was placing on him, but also by observing his opponents moves.
Seeing this, the Weapon Master Goblin King began switching fighting stances and battle styles with the dagger, making it harder for Adam to learn and predict his opponent\'s next move, but also made their battle more interesting.
With wounds all over his body, Adam\'s Bloodlust began to slowly seep out and was becoming harder to suppress, but Adam\'s facial expressions were still calm and he had improved his dagger fighting skills a lot.
It was the first opponent that he had faced that had a higher mastery of daggers than him and also the first opponent that was going all-out against him in a life or death battle using weapons, which was why Adam longed out the battle as much as he could.
The Weapon Master Goblin King started switching between weapons and his dexterity and skill with all the weapons were amazing to watch and fight against, but Adam was improving too quickly.
Even after giving the Goblin King an advantage in terms of speed and strength, Adam was still able to gain the upper hand with his perceptivity and after learning most of the Goblin King\'s moves and attack patterns, he finally decided to end the battle.
"The battle was fun and I learnt a lot, but I am the Goblin Slayer and it is time to end this" stated Adam after fighting a long and arduous battle against the Weapon Master Goblin King over 10 minutes.
Adam had lost a lot of blood and HP and also used a lot of External Energy in his long and tough battle against the Weapon Master Goblin King where he pushed his combat prowess to its limits.
He hadn\'t used any Internal Energy and had used the chance to fight against and learn from a skilled opponent to its fullest, but he couldn\'t continue the battle any longer as he would risk losing.
In the physically fatigued and injured state that he was in, although he had gained the upper hand in terms of skill, his reflex and reaction speed were starting to slow down due to the fatigue and blood loss.
Because of that, he risked being taken down by a sudden attack from the Goblin King who seemed to be less fatigued and injured.
Adam released a surge of power and energy that shocked the Weapon Master Goblin king who realised that Adam had been holding back against him the whole time.
"This is the end" stated Adam as he launched himself into the air using the Burst Movement Skill.
Returning his daggers into the inventory, Adam took out his spear and although he knew the Killing Move that he had created was very draining to use, it would guarantee the death of the capable Weapon Master Goblin King.
The Goblin King began firing arrows at Adam, but Adam dodged them all in the air and focused mostly on activating the Spinning Spear Strike Skill.
It took a few seconds to activate, which in a battle between powerful cultivators, was a long time, but since the Weapon Master couldn\'t reach Adam, who maintained a distance of over a dozen metres in the air, he was able to complete the activation of the skill.
He would pour his energy, spirit, will and all the power of the Bloodlust Characteristic that he could while focusing on harmonising all the different steps of the skill and controlling all the power in that single attack.
The Weapon Master Goblin King who had sharp senses and could clearly tell that the attack that Adam was preparing was dangerous, turned to retreat, knowing that he had no chance against such an attack.
However unfortunately for the Goblin King, the attack was one that could also be used as a ranged attack and Adam had come up with the variant while analysing his previous battles against the other Goblin Kings.
"You were smart to try and escape, but it was to no avail"
"Spinning Javelin Strike" roared Adam as he released all the power that he had streamed into the spear he was holding.
He flung it over his shoulder like a javelin and it flew through the air faster than any bullet an ordinary gun would be able to produce as it pierced into the back of the Weapon Master Goblin King.
Adam had once again underestimated the power of his attack and despite being a few dozen metres away from the Goblin King, who was attempting to get away, he was still launched flying backwards from the shockwave of the attack.
