The Miracle Lord, the God Of War - Chapter 47

Dog-headed guards had rank two professions among the dog-headed group. It was a profession that paid more attention to strength and endurance.

Unfortunately, these two attributes were not the direction that the dog-headed people wanted to develop their talent towards. According to the information of Sean’s system, the dog-headed guards belonged to the category of ‘complete creatures’. Therefore, Sean was able to gain all the information on the attributes of these 20 or so dog-headed guards in front of him without even knowing their names.

Their strength and endurance attributes hovered between 10 and 12 points, while their agility attribute was normally around 15 points.

On the other hand, regarding Sean, with the BUFF and equipment, his strength, endurance, and agility attributes were 14, 13, and 12 respectively. However, if the Charles’ Sword and the Mysterious Sword Skill were included, then his strength, endurance, and agility attributes were as high as 22, 16, and 20 points respectively. These numbers were not inferior to a new rank three profession.

Therefore, Sean looked down on these dog-headed guards.

To him, he was just like a tiger going into a flock of sheep.

Without a commander and a leader, the low class of the dog-headed people would not be able to pose much of a threat if they could not reach a sufficient level. However, people from the Medusa Business Guild were worried that once the dog-headed people’s tribe had a commander, they would evolve and not listen to the guild anymore. When that time arrived, the Medusa Business Guild would not be able to control them. Therefore, there was never a commander among the dog-headed people. As soon as a dog-headed person was found to have the intention of becoming a commander, that dog-headed person would be immediately killed.

It was this reason that made the attacks from these 20 or so dog-headed people in front of Sean so disorderly. They all attacked however they wanted.

However, a commander would only appear in a Gathering Place of the Dog-headed People in a rank three or rank four dungeon.

Sean waved, swept, and lifted the long sword in his hand. These were just a few simple sword movements, yet it had forced four dog-headed guards to take a few steps back. The weapons in their hands, such as the long spears and long pikes, were all split in two. Sean had deliberately let them live. But as soon as he had wanted to kill them, another dog-headed guard rushed up, forcing Sean to stop rushing forward.

After all, there was Cecilia behind him. Since there were so many dog-headed guards, even if they were only at rank two, they were enough for Sean to have to deal with them carefully.

Sean did not have a real rank three or higher profession. To deal with so many dog-headed guards by himself would be quite difficult. Therefore, even though the directions that his sword went seemed simple, it was all carefully calculated by Sean. It seemed a bit like the time when he had fought Hank.

This naturally surprised the middle-aged man from the Medusa Business Guild.

Sean only had a rank two profession, yet he had such tenacious willpower. Sean had even displayed extraordinary swordsmanship. It was impossible for someone like him to be unheard of. In reality, even if Sean did not say that he was the enemy, the middle-aged man would have regarded Sean as his enemy. After all, the middle-aged man had been attacked by the Black Cat Business Guild during the past few days. Once the attacks stopped, another incident had occurred after getting only a day’s rest. Anyone would realize what was going on if they were to connect the incident to everything that had happened.

“What on earth did the Black Cat Business Guild offer you?” When the middle-aged man saw that nearly half of the weapons from the dog-headed guards who protected him had been slashed in half, he was shocked. If all the weapons from these dog-headed guards were cut in half, then who would protect him?

At this time, the middle-aged man could not help but regret that he had not equipped all the dog-headed people in the camp with weapons of at least elite grade so that they could last a little bit longer. Since he had been in control of these dog-headed people for so long, he was well aware of their habits. Without the mandatory orders from their leader, these dog-headed people would disperse like sand in the wind as soon as they encountered something they were unable to face.

In the end, the middle-aged man was a human and not a dog-headed person.

“We can give you three times as much as what you were offered!” Seeing that Sean had paid no attention to his words and instead had continued to swing his sword, slashing a dog-headed person, the middle-aged man started to panic.

“Triple the amount?”

The sword in Sean’s hand paused briefly as he said with a smile, “Hehe, can you afford it?”

“I…” The middle-aged man wanted to say that he could, but then he thought about it. He did not know what kind of price that Black Cat Business Guild had offered Sean. For people with amazing talents like Sean, the business guild must have offered a high price. Therefore, the middle-aged man changed his words and said, “I can’t afford it, but the people I work for can!”

This time, instead of smiling Sean directly sneered, “The Medusa Business Guild won’t be able to afford it.”

If the middle-aged man had belonged to any other business guild, Sean might have negotiated with him. After all, he was trying to save his own life. However, Sean would never make any deals or negotiate with people from the Medusa Business Guild. This was because the Medusa Business Guild was completely influenced by the character of their supreme leader. Creatures like demons were known to have bad reputations.

Therefore, even if Sean were to make a deal with the devil, he would never make a deal with the demon of the Medusa Business Guild.

As for the middle-aged man, when he heard Sean utter the words ‘Medusa Business Guild’ without any hesitation, the expression on his face changed drastically.

Taking advantage of this sudden pause, Sean’s expression became serious as he immediately launched his sprint skill. It was impossible for Sean to arrive instantly in front of the middle-aged man when they were seven meters apart. However, the length of the Charles’ Sword, which Sean was holding in his hand, could turn the impossible into something possible. The moment Sean had started his sprint, it felt as if he had calculated everything beforehand and was just waiting for this chance to appear.

A strong murderous intent was gathered, as the movements Sean made with his sword showed his desire to attack.

When the middle-aged man came back to his senses and felt the murderous aura, Sean was already less than three and a half meters from him. However, at this moment, there was no fear in the middle-aged man’s face. Instead, he wore a solemn expression. As a magician who specialized in spiritual magic, his will attribute had to be extremely high. This was because a lot of mind-related magic required the will attribute to be higher than the required limit for spellcasting.

Although the middle-aged man’s current class was only a rank three magician, and he had not shown much difference in his will, this would completely change as a rank four.

However, as the real BOSS of the Gathering Place of the Dog-headed People dungeon, Sean remembered that the middle-aged man had a will attribute of more than 32 points. A high will attribute indicated his stability when he had to display his skills on the spot, and his calmness when facing danger.

“Barrier!” The middle-aged man suddenly spoke this word softly.

Immediately after, the air in front of him shook as a strange vibration swept out around him in the form of radiation, with him as the center. However, it did not fluctuate.

Sean’s sword stopped an inch in front of the middle-aged man.

With the tip of the sword at the center, the air rippled in circles like the surface of the water. However, Sean’s sword could not get any closer.

Sean raised the corners of his mouth slightly, but he did not make any more attempts to push forward. As soon as his body moved, he retreated backward, then turned around and headed towards another dog-headed guard. This time Sean did not hold anything back. Even though it was the same sword skill as before, the aura had completely changed. It was a lot more ferocious than before.

The Air Barrier was a high-level mysterious protective magic. It could withstand almost all physical and magical attacks.

The important term being ‘almost’, because this protective magic had a limit. If this limit was surpassed, then the magic effect would disappear. Therefore, back in the game, it was called ‘almost invincible’. However, no one was able to break this limit during the early stages of the game. Only once most people had a rank five class could the protective effect of this magic became defensive magic that could resist an attack.

The middle-aged man himself did not know this magic. He was only able to cast the Air Barrier because of the magic ring that he wore on his right hand.

As for this ring, it was the best piece of equipment that this dungeon dropped. Back in the game, players had wanted to complete this dungeon because of the ring. However, it was a pity that the chances of this piece of equipment dropping were very low. At least in the game, before Sean had started a rank five new profession, his team had not been able to get the ring to drop. This was something that Sean had regretted.

However, it was because of this regret that Sean knew about the effect of this magic. Back in the game, when Sean and his team had surrounded and attacked the BOSS, it would cast this skill every time it had close to no health left. The effect lasted for one minute. In other words, Sean had to wait one minute before he could get rid of the BOSS. Of course, in the game, it was said that there was a way to 100 percent guarantee that the ring would drop. It was to not allow the BOSS to use this skill. However, it was a pity that this method was only a theory.

But now…

This pesky magician had used the skill in the magic ring, so Sean was not going to continue to mess around with him any longer. There was only one minute of ‘invincible’ time, so he had no time to pay attention to this guy. With this one minute, it would be best if Sean could kill more dog-headed guards. This way, he could reduce the pressure that he might need to face later.

When the middle-aged man saw Sean retreat so smoothly, it made him grit his teeth. If Sean had continued to attack, the middle-aged man would have given him a mental shock. As long as the middle-aged man was able to leave Sean in a trance for a moment, he could command the dog-headed guards to cut Sean into pieces. However, the vigilance displayed by Sean made it impossible for the middle-aged man to make his move. While facing Sean, he felt as if he had been completely seen through by his opponent.

However, if he was not able to do anything to Sean, at least the apprentice magician who had come with him would not be able to get away, right?

The middle-aged man, who used to be an apprentice magician, knew the will attribute of an apprentice magician very well. It could not be compared to him, an official magician. The middle-aged man made up his mind that he would control the cute female apprentice magician, then use her to torture Sean.

He began to chant a magic spell in a low voice. With the protection form the Air Barrier, the middle-aged man’s confidence increased a lot. He was not afraid that Sean would continue to attack him or that Sean would continue to trouble him.

Sean, on the other hand, began to feel sorry for the middle-aged man when he saw that he had started to chant the ‘Mind Invasion’ spell again, and this time, the target was Cecilia.

“Hey, you picked the wrong opponent.” Sean could not help but mock him.

The middle-aged man completely ignored Sean. When he had finished his chanting, he fixed his eyes onto Cecilia. Then, he opened his eyes angrily. “Mind Invasion!”

In the next moment…

It was the middle-aged man who let out a mournful scream!
