With the class change to Shield Guardian and maxed-out defense, I can maintain infinite health.

Chen Ming's fourth battle.

It can be described as swift and decisive, without the slightest hesitation or delay.

"Oh my god, I haven't even gotten my footing yet..."

Sun Yang stared wide-eyed. "It's over?!"

He had only been in the instance for a short time and was preparing to head back.

Then there was a loud bang.

Looking back.

Brother Chen shot out like a cannonball, hurtling towards the wasteland.

He charged forward amidst a raging storm of flames, like a god of war, swiftly unleashing two powerful strikes.

Finally, with a clean and swift single-handed strike, he finished off the level 20 beast.

"Is Brother Chen this terrifying when he gets serious...?"

Apart from Sun Yang.

Qin Zhixue was also surprised.

Chen Ming played exceptionally well in this round.

He ended the battle with an almost detached attitude.

After a moment of stunned silence.

She exhaled softly and smiled brightly.

Lin Wei, who was standing to the side, was also staring at Chen Ming's figure on the wasteland.

Her big eyes sparkled with wonder.

She muttered to herself, "Suddenly I feel..."

"Miss, choosing the support role was quite the right decision."

......

Outside the instance.

A group of advanced job changers were all lost in thought.

Those who were able to lead the team to Lin Yuan City were all level 30 or above job changers.

Many of them are even level 40, already powerful figures who have entered the third realm.

These are all high-level positions in various cities.

However, at this moment, they were all stunned by Chen Ming's performance on screen.

Less than level 10, yet he killed a level 20 beast in a near-crushing manner.

Even if the beast is severely injured, it shouldn't be this bad.

The extremely impactful imagery made them unable to sit still.

"Is he... slaughtering a pig over there?"

A level 40 job changer twitched at the corner of his mouth.

Other teams are fighting as a team, and despite their best efforts, they haven't killed a single one.

Chen Ming has already killed four of them all by himself.

And each one is faster than the last.

"Hey, why isn't he moving?"

On the outskirts of the wasteland.

Chen Ming, Qin Zhixue, and two others appeared outside the instance.

The guard saw Chen Ming yet again.

"hiss......"

The guard gasped, as if he had seen a ghost.

Didn't you just go in?

Why the hell are they out again?!

He hadn't even had a chance to look at the instance screen.

Don't tell me...

It's over in such a short time!

"Excuse me, sir/madam...?"

The guard swallowed hard.

At the same time, he picked up a dungeon rune stone and prepared to hand it to Chen Ming.

A level 35 job changer was now even being somewhat cautious towards a lower-level job changer.

no way.

He couldn't figure out who Chen Ming was either.

However, the guard noticed the next second that the other party did not come forward to collect the dungeon rune.

Instead, he stood still, his gaze somewhat lost in thought.

at the same time.

After leaving the instance, Chen Ming opened his class panel.

A prominent reminder appeared before my eyes.

[Job level reached 10]

[Do you want to awaken your class skill immediately?]

[Note: Your level cannot be increased before awakening your skills!]

[Note: If you do not awaken within 30 days, you will be unable to absorb any attribute energy!]

"Let's talk about that in the Abyss."

Chen Ming glanced at the awakening prompt for his professional skills.

Although he already has quite a few rare resources.

But there are still 30 days left, so it's always a good idea to go to that abyss and see what's going on.

There's no need to rush.

The most important thing is...

His professional level is C, and to awaken abilities that are useful to him, he would have to skip several levels.

The more resources needed, the better.

【Ding--】

Just then, another familiar voice appeared.

[Special Talent: Gain an additional SSS-rank skill every 10 levels!]

"They're here!"

[Do you want to awaken your special talent skill immediately?]

Chen Ming's spirits lifted, and he confirmed without hesitation.

[Awakening in progress—]

[Successfully awakened SSS-rank skill: Shield of Rebellion!]

"The Shield of Reversal?"

A thought struck him.

Shield skill?

Chen Ming opened the panel to take a look.

【SSS-Rank - Shield of Rebellion (lv.0)】

Passive ability —

【Skill Effect 1: When attacked by physical/mental attacks (including damage taken by shields), unleash a guaranteed hit 'Shield Counter' attack on the enemy target!】

Shield parry attack damage: 5% of the user's maximum Constitution attribute / 1% of their maximum Spirit attribute!

"hiss......"

Chen Ming's eyes lit up when he saw the effect of the first skill.

He knew about the shield counterattack.

It's this attack damage...

5% of your own physical constitution?!

Are you just giving me a percentage?

"Tsk tsk, that's really generous."

A single instance of reflected damage is 5% of the target's constitution.

Attacking him 20 times directly resulted in 100% damage to his constitution.

If this is a battle against a job changer.

Chen Ming just stood there without moving, and he performed gua sha on him a dozen times...

The enemy destroyed itself.

Of course, that doesn't mean it's not very effective against mythical beasts.

Although the beasts have high physical strength, it doesn't mean they can withstand it.

And it's important to know that this is still the effect of a level 0 skill.

Skill values ​​can gradually increase as the skill level increases.

"With this ability, we no longer need to worry about enemies who focus on maximizing attack speed."

Chen Ming announced: Invincibility progress +10%!

He looked again at the second effect of 'Shield of Reversal'.

Even shield skills naturally have a shield mechanism.

[Skill Effect 2: Each time you receive physical/mental damage, a 'shield' will be generated]

Shield value: 20% of the user's maximum Constitution attribute / 20% of the user's maximum Spirit attribute; shield duration: one hour!

"Put on a shield when hit?"

No wonder it's called the Shield of Rebellion...

This shield only takes effect after being attacked.

"If you get injured, you get a shield that grants 20% increased constitution. So, does that mean..."

Chen Ming pondered.

After reducing his health by 1 point, a shield appears...

The shield was successfully destroyed. After further reducing the shield's health by 1 point, the shield reappeared.

"Oh......"

Chen Ming couldn't hold back any longer.

Laughed.

When combined with the [Absolute Defense] mechanism, it becomes incredibly powerful.

"That's fine too; it masks my abilities to some extent."

Although the only battle against job changers so far has been the one between Cloudsea City and the Abyss Squad.

But in this provincial selection, and in the future, it's likely that we'll inevitably have to fight against those who have changed jobs.

Over time.

Others might also realize that he will only suffer a little damage at most.

However, things are different once you have a shield.

The damage absorbed by the shield is normal.

After all, the determination mechanism of [Absolute Defense] is based on "taking damage".

"Shield parry attack plus hit shield..."

"This immediately solved the problems of high attack speed and being vulnerable to area-of-effect attacks."

Chen Ming nodded to himself.

It's no wonder it's a specially selected brand with exceptional talent!

Even a normal SSS-level.

It's definitely not as outrageous as the skill he's awakened now.

of course.

The reason it feels so intense.

Actually, part of the reason is due to the combination of [Absolute Defense]...

The power of the max-level SSS-rank skill is still going strong!
