Chapter 972 - Test of Strength





As Gentle Snow was pushed aside, the middle-aged man quickly stepped forward to speak up . However, before he could do so, Lethal Gale shot him a penetrating glare .

With the one look, the middle-aged man froze .

Even though the middle-aged man knew that players wouldn't dare attack another in a place like this, Lethal Gale's sharp gaze had left him petrified . The dense killing intent within that gaze felt as if a blade had been pressed against the middle-aged man's throat, and if he moved, his head would leave his body .

This is killing intent! Gentle Snow could also feel the frightening pressure that Lethal Gale exuded, and she could not help but stare at the Berserker .

To put it simply, killing intent was a kind of mental suppression .

Although killing intent couldn't be seen or touched, the human mind could sense the threat of danger . As a person could not perceive the danger with their five senses, the mind employed a self-preservation mechanism, halting the body from making any sudden movements .





It was the same mechanism that was responsible for small animals freezing when surprised .

There was a saying in the real world that looks could kill . Although it sounded like a joke, a person's gaze could indeed transmit certain signals .

Take wild animals for example . When two wild animals faced off against one another, if one of the wild animals received a ferocious glare from the other, the former would hesitate .

Wild animals were born with much keener senses than humans, so they could pick up on these signals easier .

Normally, it was very difficult for ordinary players . However, for experts who had experienced many life or death situations, their will and instincts had already been hardened and sharpened . Hence, they could transmit more powerful signals, which even ordinary people could pick up on .

Lethal Gale was one such expert .

However, Gentle Snow had not focused on Lethal Gale due to his killing intent, but rather because his was somewhat different from other gaming experts' . His killing intent was much colder and sharper . Unlike the killing intent other experts radiated, which only served as a warning signal, the killing intent Gentle Snow felt from Lethal Gale showed that the Berserker truly wanted to murder his target . More importantly, the Berserker wore a calm and natural expression while he radiated such killing intent .





The fact that Lethal Gale could do this told her that his hands were stained with real-world blood .


"One should always act on a first come, first served basis . Do the Blackwater Corporation's people not respect this rule?" Gentle Snow asked as she pulled her subordinate away and glanced at Lethal Gale . Sneering, she continued, "Or do you need me to teach you a lesson in manners?"

Although Gentle Snow's tone was soft and not particularly loud, everyone who heard her trembled involuntarily .

It seems the rumored Snow Goddess isn't just a push-over . Lethal Gale thought, surprised by Gentle Snow's aura . In his eyes, virtual gaming experts did not know what it truly meant to fight and kill . These people were nothing to them, people who had seen hell and walked the boundaries of life and death . However, the aura Gentle Snow radiated showed that she was not one bit weaker than him . He had not expected this revelation . "Sure . Since Guild Leader Snow made the offer, I'm interested to see just how tough you really are . If you can defeat me, my men and I will leave . If I win, however, you will have to wait for us to finish our chat with this gentleman . "

Although Gentle Snow's aura had surprised him, that was all . In an actual fight, one could only rely on their own skill . He refused to believe that his skills, which he had honed in true battle, would lose to someone like Gentle Snow, was all style and no substance .

Moreover, if he beat Gentle Snow, Abandoned Wave would have an easier time taking over Ouroboros .





Lethal Gale's companions wore mocking smiles as they watched Gentle Snow . He was absurdly strong . He had even defeated a famous expert from the Dark Night Empire, who ranked 354th on the God's Domain Experts List . As for Gentle Snow, in the latest update of the Experts List, she only ranked within the top 900 . Defeating her would be a piece of cake for Lethal Gale .

"Okay, I want to see just what kind of experts the Blackwater Corporation has nurtured," Gentle Snow said . She then turned to Shi Feng, and in an apologetic tone, she said, "Excuse me, sir, but will you wait for a little while longer? I'll finish this match very quickly . We can proceed with the trade once I'm done . "

Blackwater's people had not initially been looking to cause Shi Feng any trouble . It was only because of her that these ruffians had done so . Hence, it was only right that she deal with this matter .

Trying his best to hold back a chuckle, Shi Feng said in a deep tone, "It's fine . I am more than happy to watch a good show . "

He had to admit that the Black Cloak was an excellent item for hiding one's identity . Even as he stood before Gentle Snow, she didn't recognize him at all . Right now, all she could discern was his gender .

In reality, Shi Feng could've revealed his identity and put an end to this match . However, he was curious to see how strong Gentle Snow was .

Both Gentle Snow and Lethal Gale were Level 39 Berserkers . Both wore equipment of similar standards, with both wearing Level 40 Dark-Gold Equipment . It was obvious that they both possessed top-tier equipment that could reduce item level requirements . Their weapons were the only difference between them .

Although Shi Feng did not know the quality of Gentle Snow's silver greatsword, seeing the greatsword gather traces of Mana from the area, it was definitely stronger than a Dark-Gold Weapon . On the other hand, Lethal Gale's greatsword was slightly weaker . Even so, it was a top-tier Dark-Gold Weapon .

With almost a negligible difference between them, this match would come down to their combat techniques .

Shi Feng had already been observing Lethal Gale . Although he was a Berserker, a class famed for violence, his actions felt light and gentle . It was obvious that his physical control had already reached a very high standard . It was highly possible that he had reached the Refinement Realm .

Refinement Realm experts were considered apex experts in first-rate Guilds . After all, unless one had the benefit of a simulation training system or some miracle, it was extremely difficult to reach the Refinement Realm . Hence, it was quite impressive if a first-rate Guild had a few such experts . As for experts of higher combat standards, that depended on luck .

It was similar to some unrated Guilds' luck as they saw a Refinement Realm expert arise from among their members . Unfortunately, the probability of such at this stage of the game was extremely small unless the player was also an extremely powerful martial artist in the real world .

As for Gentle Snow, Shi Feng did not notice any sign that she had reached the Refinement Realm . In that case, where was her confidence coming from?

Of course, it was also possible that Gentle Snow intentionally hid the subtle signs . If so, even Shi Feng would not be able to determine her combat standard . He could only confirm his doubts by watching an intense battle .

Once Gentle Snow agreed to the match, they all headed for the Divine Colosseum above White River City .
