Chapter 60 Royal Visitors, Silver Commander
Generally speaking, these palace guards wouldn't leave the royal palace easily.
As the saying went, there wouldn't be smoke without fire.
Alan walked straight up to them.
He thought, 'You guys aren't here to cause me trouble, are you? '
'If that's the case, that would be great. Because I've been worrying about not having strong wild monsters to stack my health points!'
This guess was based on a letter Alan found earlier at Blackwind Stronghold, which informed him that Blackwind Stronghold was working for some big shot in Stellaria.
Now that the palace guards had arrived, it was likely because of the matters related to Blackwind Stronghold.
"Sinner, you have committed numerous crimes and harmed civilians. I am here under orders to arrest you. Surrender now to avoid unnecessary suffering!"
Sure enough!
The words of the guard commander confirmed Alan's suspicions.
"You are ordered to arrest me? Whose orders?" Alan asked in return.
"That's not something you need to know," the guard commander snorted coldly. "Surrendering now is your best option."
"Surrender?" Alan smirked playfully. "You can try to make a move. If you dare to attack, I dare to kill you all."
The guard commander's brows furrowed, and he instantly thrust his spear towards Alan's throat.
Alan sidestepped, letting the spear pierce his shoulder.
[-54,982!]
A huge damage number appeared above Alan's head.
As a level fifty silver guard and the commander of the palace guards, his output was considered high even among silver-level bosses.
[You have been maliciously attacked and can counterattack normally.]
Alan's lips curled up; this was exactly what he wanted.
Alan quickly retreated while simultaneously firing an arrow.
"All together now."
The guard commander did not underestimate him. Before coming out, the queen had instructed them that this mission must succeed without fail.
Moreover, as palace guards, their strength lay not in individual combat but in coordinated attacks.
Twenty bronze guards surrounded Alan.
Alan immediately fired five arrows at once while pulling back with all his might.
With a movement speed exceeding fourteen, he was not much slower than these bronze guards.
"Dragon Trap Spear!"
At the command of the silver commander, the guards immediately threw their spears.
Alan quickly maneuvered, but he realized that these spears were not aimed at attacking him but at blocking his retreat.
Each spear was thrown at a tricky angle, and if Alan reacted even slightly slower, his legs could be pinned by the spears.
"Trying to trap me with such means? Dream on."
Alan stepped on a spear, leaping into the air.
At the same time, he turned and fired five arrows.
"Daring to leap in front of me? Foolish."
A cold glint flashed in the silver commander's eyes. In a flash, he appeared beneath Alan, thrusting his spear upward.
The spear, gleaming with a cold light, shot towards Alan. In mid-air, Alan performed a 360-degree spin, narrowly avoiding the spear that grazed his armor.
After landing, Alan fired another arrow.
The silver commander deflected Alan's arrow with a swipe of his spear and thrust it forward again.
A phantom tiger roared on the spear.
Alan sensed danger. While firing five arrows, he allocated all one hundred of his accumulated free attribute points to his movement speed.
After breaking through ten points in movement speed, each free attribute point only increased his speed by 0.05. However, one hundred free attribute points still provided Alan with five points of movement speed.
With his movement speed breaking through nineteen, Alan dodged, but he couldn't completely escape the attack range of the phantom tiger.
[-87,958!]
Another massive damage number appeared. Just a slight touch would cause a significant drop in health.
However, Alan's Breeze Set effect had already stacked up, with his movement speed breaking through twenty and his attack speed surpassing ten.
He could use his attacks to leech life.
Five arrows at once!
While the guard commander could deflect Alan's arrows with his spear, the other bronze guards weren't as skilled.
Especially with Alan's incredibly fast attack speed, their reaction times couldn't keep up.
Four arrows could deal over fifty thousand damage, simultaneously restoring over twenty thousand health points for Alan.
The Bloodthirst Necklace's one percent max health leech and the Ninefold Longbow's five percent leech effect provided significant boosts for Alan.
With his movement speed breaking through twenty, Alan could finally kite these bronze guards effectively.
But the silver commander charged at him again.
He turned into a blur, passing through Alan's body.
[-125,820!]
A massive damage number appeared above Alan's head.
Alan gasped, but his hands didn't stop moving.
Ten times per second, five arrows at once.
Each set of five arrows restored over twenty thousand health points, allowing Alan to recover over two hundred thousand health points per second.
Therefore, despite the serious damage from the silver commander, Alan could still leech back his health.
"Dragon Claw."
At the silver commander's order, the bronze guards immediately switched their weapons to chain-linked flying claws.
They swung the flying claws, ready to strike.
The silver commander's spear hummed as he charged again.
As he approached Alan, he made a rapid sidestep, appearing behind Alan.
Alan immediately rolled to the side. Despite his quick reaction, the level fifty silver commander was even faster. Alan's roll had just begun when the silver commander used his spear to knock him into the air.
In the instant Alan was knocked into the air, the flying claws shot towards him.
Alan's expression changed slightly. Taking advantage of being knocked into the air, he acted. In a normal situation, he would have no way to dodge.
But he had the Purification Necklace.
It provided eighty percent immunity to knock-up attacks.
Therefore, he only paused briefly in the air before landing.
The flying claws missed their target.
After landing, the silver commander was visibly stunned.
Alan seized this fleeting opportunity to create as much distance as possible.
The silver commander quickly recovered, leaping up and thrusting his spear.
In an instant, a spear light shot toward Alan.
Alan dodged the moment the silver commander attacked.
But the spear light was too fast and still hit him.
With a soft sound, the shoulder guard on Alan's left shoulder shattered instantly.
The shoulder guard's durability had reached its limit and was now useless!
Alan's face darkened.
The Breeze Set had high compatibility with him, but now one piece was destroyed just like that.
Arrows continued to pierce the air.
At that moment, Alan considered using the Tome of Life and Death.
But he decided against it.
He wanted to use this opportunity to stack his health points. Using the Tome of Life and Death would waste this perfect chance.
Moreover, such high-intensity combat could also hone Alan's fighting skills.
If he made a mistake now, he could still be revived at the altar.
But if a cataclysm struck, one mistake could mean eternal damnation.
"Dragon Binding Rope!"
The silver commander shouted again, and the bronze guards switched their weapons once more.
