Familiar with the skill application of Spinal Break, Nie Yan began to frantically practice its proficiency.

Completion rate 93%, completion rate 95%, completion rate 96%...

As he cast Spinal Break more often, Nie Yan became more familiar with it, gradually mastering more secrets. He constantly adjusted his movements in practice, reaching a maximum completion rate of around 98%. This was an incredible thing in the eyes of ordinary players. 100% completion was almost impossible to achieve, and 98% was an unbelievably high number.

As Nie Yan cast Spinal Break more and more, his skill proficiency soared. Before long, another crisp system prompt sounded, and Spinal Break leveled up to level five.

In the entire Greenland Empire, Nie Yan was probably the only one who could raise a free skill to level five. Free skills were notoriously difficult to train. It was already good enough to train ordinary skills to level five, let alone free skills!

If he were to hit a player with a level five Spinal Break with 90% completion from behind, even a warrior would lose half their health if they didn't die. Plus, Spinal Break had a stun effect. The opponent would definitely be dead during that time.

Nie Yan diligently practiced his skills, spending an entire day. The level of Spinal Break soared to level eight! A terrifying level eight Spinal Break, with 90% completion, could deal 600% damage!

This damage intensity left Nie Yan speechless. So free skills could be this strong! He had never realized this in his previous life. That was why he was only a second-rate player.

Nie Yan stealthily approached a Minotaur Warrior and cast Spinal Break on its back. A damage number of 7,500 floated above the Minotaur Warrior's head, and it was stunned for seven seconds.

After a round of skill execution, another Spinal Break.

After about seventy seconds, the Minotaur Warrior staggered and fell. With Nie Yan's high damage output, even if the Minotaur Warrior's health regeneration was fast, it couldn't withstand it.

It used to take two full minutes to kill a Minotaur Warrior, but now it only took seventy seconds. Nie Yan was excited by the increase in combat power.

Killing the Minotaur Warrior yielded good rewards. The Minotaur Warrior didn't drop anything else, just skill books. There were many rare skills, including three free skill books, but they were for warriors and paladins.

Since he had already reached level eight, Nie Yan wanted to reach even higher, but the higher he went, the more skill proficiency was required. According to the skill proficiency required for leveling up, it would take at least three days to reach level nine.

While practicing Spinal Break, Nie Yan also explored other skills, including Backstab, Shadowstrike, Counter, and Instant Strike. With Spinal Break as an example, he quickly found some clues when exploring other skills.

Backstab, Counter, and Spinal Break were similar in that they concentrated power on the arms through body movements and then released it. Shadowstrike and Instant Strike, on the other hand, achieved high damage by briefly accelerating and penetrating the opponent.

After spending another day, Nie Yan familiarized himself with skills like Backstab. Although he couldn't be as proficient as with Spinal Break, he had made some progress.

Soon, Backstab, Counter, Shadowstrike, and Instant Strike all reached level five. After reaching level five, these skills were already very powerful, making him invincible when grinding monsters. He could take down a Minotaur Warrior in fifty seconds.

Although his level hadn't increased, Nie Yan could clearly feel that his strength was rapidly skyrocketing after familiarizing himself with these skills.

Bright刀光 and the others could laugh at all the warriors with level five or six Minotaur Strength and War God's Fury, but Nie Yan at this moment had five or more free skills above level five. It was estimated that Bright刀光, 水色烟头, and the others would have a hard time lasting a minute against Nie Yan.

After practicing skills for another day, Nie Yan looked at the proficiency of Spinal Break. It had reached 36% of level eight, which was pretty good.

While Nie Yan was frantically practicing skill proficiency, the war between the Niu Ren Tribe and the Mages Alliance was in full swing. The Niu Ren Tribe once again let people see their terrifying side.

The Mages Alliance, with an army of 200,000 and six Ironclad Siege Rams, tried to intercept the Niu Ren Tribe to prevent them from burning the flames of war to Egedun Fortress. 200,000 against 60,000, they suffered a painful defeat, losing more than 60,000 people, and all six siege rams were destroyed. They fled in embarrassment, while the Niu Ren Tribe lost only a little over 2,000 people.

The walls of Egedun Fortress had been built by the Mages Alliance like an iron bucket. They would have to wait for the Niu Ren Tribe's Ballista Siege Rams to be built before they could start attacking the city. Therefore, Bright刀光 and the others were not in a hurry to attack Egedun Fortress. They were engaging in a war of attrition with the Mages Alliance to weaken their strength first.

The construction of the Ballista Siege Rams was proceeding in an orderly manner. Nie Yan had three slaves, one of whom, the little female slave Delphinia, had the talent to copy blueprints. In nearly a week, she copied two blueprints of the Ballista Siege Ram. With three teams of mechanics producing Ballista Siege Rams together, the speed immediately increased a lot. He believed that a large number of Ballista Siege Rams would be produced soon.

The number of Frost Ironclad Siege Rams in the Niu Ren Tribe was constantly increasing. One Frost Ironclad Siege Ram after another was put into use after being produced. The number of Frost Ironclad Siege Rams had increased to twenty-five, and the number was still climbing.

With so many Frost Ironclad Siege Rams, it was simply unmatched. The Niu Ren Tribe swaggered in Moonshadow City, and the Mages Alliance didn't dare to fart, only to huddle in Egedun Fortress and constantly build city walls. They didn't know where they got some giant crossbows and equipped them on the towers, and put some Ironclad Siege Rams on the walls of the city. In this way, the city defense was very strong.

Kuang Fa was miserable. The Niu Ren Tribe, these damn bastards, had already destroyed six fortresses of the Mages Alliance. The six fortresses he had spent a lot of money to build had been turned into ruins. If the Niu Ren Tribe had only occupied the fortresses of the Mages Alliance, then it would have been fine, they could have fought back. But the Niu Ren Tribe didn't give them any chance at all, and directly leveled the fortresses. Even if they fought back to the fortresses in the future, they would have to start from scratch and build them up bit by bit.

After the Niu Ren Tribe's siege rams destroyed the sixth fortress, they rushed to the next fortress. The Mages Alliance was a big financial backer of Moonshadow City. There were more than twenty fortresses alone. They had only dismantled six of them. Adding the five fortresses they had won in the bet before, the Niu Ren Tribe had only taken down less than half of them.

If this continued, in a few days, the Mages Alliance would only have the lonely Egedun Fortress left. It was estimated that Kuang Fa would have a hard time holding his breath. Once the Mages Alliance's troops left Egedun Fortress, the tortoise shell, they would become targets for the Frost Ironclad Siege Rams again.

Players in the Greenland Empire and the Saturn Empire were discussing the war between the Niu Ren Tribe and the Mages Alliance. In the current situation, the Niu Ren Tribe was actually pressing the Mages Alliance to fight with less than half of their army, which surprised them. If there were no reinforcements, the Mages Alliance was afraid that they would not be able to hold on. Even if the Niu Ren Tribe failed to take Egedun Fortress, if all the other fortresses were destroyed, the Mages Alliance would probably not be able to recover for several months.

The war was still going on.

The Griffin Woodlands, everywhere here was filled with vast white fog, from time to time some large birds flew by, making this place full of danger.

This was the place to obtain flying mounts. A team of about thousands of players passed through the vast white fog and traveled through the jungle.

"Boss, we should have been here last time, do we want to use the Mist Dispelling Scroll?" a mage player asked.

The leader of this team of players was precisely Angel Corps' boss, Ang Yi Tian Shi.

"Have our people found out how the Mist Dispelling Scroll came about?" Ang Yi Tian Shi asked. They had used a Mist Dispelling Scroll before and found that with the Mist Dispelling Scroll, their exploration speed of the Griffin Woodlands had greatly increased, and the things they obtained were much better than before. But the expensive price of the Mist Dispelling Scroll made all Angel Corps players feel pain. Because the player who sold the Mist Dispelling Scroll proposed exchanging two Mist Dispelling Scrolls for a flying mount, which was too black, but in order to speed up the exploration of the Griffin Woodlands, they had no choice but to yield.

Sure enough, with the Mist Dispelling Scroll, their gains had increased a lot, and unnecessary casualties had also been reduced a lot. In the final analysis, this exchange was worth it, but it was really unwilling to be fished away with a flying mount. The most fearful thing was that the flying mount that was fished away would fall into the hands of the enemy, then the loss would outweigh the gain.

"It is said that the Mist Dispelling Scroll was made by a Great Mage, the person who sells the Mist Dispelling Scroll is unwilling to say the specific details," a tall warrior next to him said. He wore a golden armor, which was a full body armor. There was not a trace of gap in the joint of the armor, it was natural, and many rune patterns were engraved on it. He was Angel Corps' number one Berserker—Lie Yan.

Nie Yan knew that Angel Corps was exploring the Griffin Woodlands, but the Niu Ren Tribe players really couldn't spare the time to explore the Griffin Woodlands. The melee with the Mages Alliance would have to last for several more days before it could end. But he had made very thorough arrangements. First of all, he used the Mist Dispelling Scroll to lure Angel Corps and divide a portion of their profits. Exchanging two Mist Dispelling Scrolls for a flying mount, this kind of price estimate could make Ang Yi Tian Shi depressed to the point of wanting to hit the wall, but Ang Yi Tian Shi had no choice but to yield, because the only one who sold the Mist Dispelling Scroll was this one family. In addition, Nie Yan asked Guo Huai to spend a high price to bribe two Angel Corps players to record the entire process of Angel Corps' exploration of the Griffin Woodlands and transmit it over. With these image data, when the Niu Ren Tribe explored the Griffin Woodlands in the future, it would be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Ang Yi Tian Shi would never have thought that the one who traded Mist Dispelling Scrolls with them was the Niu Ren Tribe. They just handed over a flying mount to the Niu Ren Tribe, and the process of their exploration of the Griffin Woodlands was also recorded into a video and sent to the Niu Ren Tribe's hands. If he knew the truth, it was estimated that he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.
