It is precisely because his ability value has grown rapidly in six days and reached the standard when Bell Crany was upgraded that Li De is preparing to conduct the upgrade trial today.

"Then let's have a big fight!"

After Li De finished speaking, he immediately disappeared from the spot. The next second, he appeared directly above the neck of a minotaur holding a thick stone axe at the edge, and swung the ring-handled knife in his hand fiercely at the neck.

Moo!

The screams and gushing blood immediately turned the eyes of the other three minotaurs red.

As if entering a frenzy state, four stone axes formed by a natural arsenal swept towards Li De, directly blocking all the space where Li De could escape from up, down, left and right.

With a flash of his figure, Li De returned to his previous position again.

Boom boom boom!
The sound of heavy footsteps and a huge figure rushed towards Li De in a crushing manner.

The one who launched the attack was the injured minotaur. After Li De cut a cut on his neck, the minotaur's life, which was gushing with blood, began to count down.

But before falling, the danger of the Minotaur entering frenzy mode will not decrease at all. Instead, it will become even crazier because of the pain it feels.

He covered his neck with one hand and used the other hand to hold a thick stone axe and smash it down on Li De.

Staring at the whistling stone axe, Li De suddenly moved his feet sideways quickly, raised the ring-handled knife and slashed the wrist of the minotaur holding the stone axe.

In fact, if possible, Li De would be willing to cut off the minotaur's neck or hands directly.

But this kind of humanoid monster is really thick-skinned and tough, and even the sharp ring-handled sword cannot achieve Li De's goal in one go. Not to mention the quality of the weapon, in the final analysis, Li De's strength is not enough.

However, Li De was not at all panicked, because he had fought with minotaurs more than once in the past few days. Although there was only one minotaur each time, it also allowed Li De to understand some of the characteristics and action patterns of the minotaur.

If you can't kill instantly, just cause damage over and over again. After all, your opponent is not a monster like Goliath that has the ability to regenerate. You can eventually kill him by wearing him down bit by bit.

Moo!

His wrist was cut, and although the tendons were not broken, the minotaur was completely unable to pick up the heavy stone axe to fight.

But it didn't matter that there was no stone axe. The minotaur's most lethal move was not the weapon, but the piercing horns on its head. It lowered its head and smashed towards Li De, and the horns emitting an inexplicable cold light were already aimed at Li De.

Li De could easily deal with this move by just one minotaur, but the three minotaurs that followed him, wielding stone axes, once again blocked Li De's retreat route.

Even though the monsters in the dungeon look completely brainless, they are surprisingly cooperative when fighting in groups, and will never hinder other monsters of the same kind when attacking at the same time.

Without any fear, at the last second before the attack arrived, Li De teleported again and appeared in the air behind the other minotaur who had used the old move. He still aimed his knife at the neck, causing a splash of blood.

After landing, Li De used his ring-handled sword to block the heavy punch from another minotaur. After being knocked away, he hit the wall of the passage not far away.

Except for the first two times, once Li De's energy was exhausted, he would not be able to teleport continuously. This is an obvious flaw of Li De at present. It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he can't do it.

Teleportation requires a lot of magic power, but it is more of a test of the spirit. If you can't teleport continuously, it is inevitable that your opponent will find a flaw after the attack.

However, the heavy punch and the catching move did not have much impact on Li De, because in the [Ability Value] update the day before, Li De's durability had successfully broken through SS and reached four digits.

The Minotaur's attack seemed very fierce, causing Li De to fly more than a meter and hit the wall, but the actual damage was not great. At most, his back was red and swollen, which was the result of the recent beatings.

But the battle will not stop for even a second because of this. If Bert does not move, these minotaurs will not bother him. After all, the aura of a high-level adventurer is enough to make the minotaurs deliberately ignore his existence.

Because of this, all the Minotaur's attacks fell on Li De's side.

Li De, who had just hit the wall, had no time to catch his breath before he saw two stone axes swinging at him from different angles.

Li De kicked his feet backward and rolled forward before the stone axe arrived, finally avoiding the danger of being broken into pieces. But this did not mean the end, as two other big feet kicked towards Li De.

Teleport!

Li De, who had finally recovered his breath, used magic without any hesitation. After stabbing the third minotaur on the neck, Li De kicked the minotaur hard with both feet. With the rebound force, he retreated several meters and successfully avoided the last minotaur's swinging punch, which was unharmed.

Some people may think that Li De’s way of attacking is problematic. Isn’t there a saying that goes like this: It is better to break one finger than to hurt ten fingers?

Wouldn't it be better to focus on killing one Tauren first to relieve the pressure?
It will be easier to dodge if the attack density is reduced.

It’s not that Li De doesn’t know this truth, nor does he not want to do it, but he can’t do it.

The Minotaur was about three meters tall, and there was only one place on his body that was most likely to be cut and cause vital injuries, and that was his neck. If he wanted to jump up and chop, it would be difficult to find an opportunity even if he was alone, let alone surrounded by four Minotaur.

As for piercing the heart or shooting the kidneys, Reed never considered it again after his first fight with the Minotaur. The muscles of this kind of monster were extremely dense, and it was difficult to kill it by piercing it. Reed tried it once, but not only did he fail to kill it, his weapon was stuck in the solid muscles.

To deal with four minotaurs at the same time, with the current limitation that Li De can only teleport eight times, he must ensure that he can use teleportation to give each minotaur a knife on the neck before reaching the critical value of his mental endurance. Only in this way can he have a chance of winning.

After spending nearly forty seconds resisting two or three consecutive waves of attacks from four minotaurs, Li De finally found an opportunity to cut a long gash on the neck of the last uninjured minotaur.

Whoohoo!
The panting sound did not only come from Li De, but more from the injured minotaur's heavy breathing due to massive blood loss.
