《MMORPG: Martial Gamer》Chapter 640. Hinder Strikeback
Advertisement
Wang Yu’s consecutive kicks took away close to two million HP but the health bar above the God of Puppets’ head did not seem to move at all. Evidently, this fella’s total HP was insanely high.
As the God of Puppets saw that the target he had in his hands struggled free, he was slightly surprised. He turned around and opened his stride to charge towards Wang Yu.
The God of Puppets’ legs were extremely long, and every step was about four metres long. In a jiffy, he arrived in front of Wang Yu and lifted his huge leg as he tried to trample on Wang Yu.
This fella’s attack was exceptionally high. Even a person with defence like Crotch Lord wasn’t able to contain one strike. If a person with health and defence like Wang Yu was on the receiving end of a single attack, the consequences would be unthinkable.
When Wang Yu saw that the God of Puppets’ foot was right above his head, he rolled to the side anxiously. He successfully avoided the God of Puppets’ foot but at this moment, the God of Puppets’ sword was thrust downwards right towards Wang Yu’s head.
Both of Wang Yu’s legs treaded on the God of Puppets’ leg to slide out of the edge of the sword narrowly. Just then, the God of Puppets’ shield descended from above.
The Cross Blade was a sharp weapon, so the smaller attacking surface was relatively easier to avoid. However, a normal shield was already so wide and big while the God of Puppets’ shield was almost like a wall. This small range movement was definitely not enough to dodge it.
“F*ck!!!”
Wang Yu cursed in his heart as he continuously rolled a few times to the right. This was just enough to avoid the God of Puppets’ shield. Yes, roll desperately… Up to now, Wang Yu had never been in such a sorry state since he was surrounded by soldiers.
The God of Puppets’ weapons were not only limited to these. After rolling out of the shield’s way, Wang Yu didn’t dare to take a breather as he continued rolling backwards. In a half-squat position, he jumped backwards with force as he flew past the leg of the God of Puppets. He managed to send himself to the back of the God of Puppets.

Just when Wang Yu managed to stabilise himself, the God of Puppets’ spear was thrust at Wang Yu’s previous location.
Even though the God of Puppets had many arms, he only had two eyes. Wang Yu’s current position was a blind spot for him which made him temporarily safe for now.
When Wang Yu saw the descending of weapon, he really broke out in cold sweat. Soon after, Wang Yu’s both hands were equipped with weapons as one long and one short sword appeared.
Wang Yu paid extremely close attention to the God of Puppets as he observed the movement of his upper body. This was because he knew that this plaything was something like a robot. From experience, he knew that any weapon might come at him at an unexpected angle. Therefore, he was exceedingly cautious.
Indeed, after the God of Puppets lost his target, his upper body turned oddly with the waist as the pivot. The long sword was immediately aimed at Wang Yu again.
Wang Yu’s short sword blocked the edge of the sword while the long sword on his right hand was supporting the short blade from the back as he took on the full force of the God of Puppets’ strike. In the next moment, Wang Yu was like bubblegum stuck on a windmill. Following the movement of the sword, he flew right to the front of the God of Puppets.
Of course, even though Wang Yu’s current position was right in front of the God of Puppets, the God of Puppets’ upper body had twisted 180 degrees. Hence, the back of the God of Puppets’ head was still facing Wang Yu.
The horizontal slash of the Cross Blade ended, and Wang Yu landed lightly on the ground. During the instant the God of Puppets’ skill ended, Wang Yu pressed down the handle of the sword and jumped up. He jumped right to the top of the head.
Eagle Stomp!
Thunder God’s Stomp!
“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” Boom!!!

-21457

Wang Yu landed four consecutive kicks on the back of the God of Puppets’ head. The very last Thunder God’s Stomp’s knockback effect caused the God of Puppets to sway a little. At the same time, Wang Yu took advantage to sit down to hang both his legs on the God of Puppets’ neck. As the neck moved forward, Wang Yu’s swords were pierced right towards the head.

The sword pierced through the God of Puppets’ eye while the long sword wiped one around across the neck.
-22167
-37596
These two red numbers appeared and there was finally some gap in the health bar of the God of Puppets.
This skill was called “Double Moon Encirclement” and it was one of the sword arts of the Wang Clan. If this was executed in real life, the head would have been ripped off the body. However, because they were in a game, the God of Puppets only needed to shake a little and was able to shake Wang Yu off his neck.
Looking at the unconcerned expression of the God of Puppets, Wang Yu was on the verge of crying.
“F*ck! This is way too illogical. How can he not die after that?” Even though Wang Yu had never used this move on anyone, Wang Yu’s many years of martial art experience provided him with a deep ideology. It was hard to change his logical flow of thought when playing this game especially only after such a short period of time.
“Why don’t you die?”
The Quan Zhen Sect’s players, who were hiding behind the statue, were already in tears when they heard what Wang Yu said.
The God of Puppets showed its might and power just by swinging a few arms. Not only did Wang Yu dared to take on such a formidable BOSS on his own, he even had the advantage in the exchange of blows. Even so, he was still complaining that he didn’t manage to kill the BOSS in seconds. This was truly preposterous.
Of course, nobody treated Wang Yu as a fellow human. After all, no human could be as savage as Wang Yu was.
As a big BOSS, the God of Puppets was naturally not going to sit there quietly without retaliating. Before Wang Yu could be shaken off his neck, he extended his hand to grab Wang Yu’s back.
“Boom!”
Wang Yu’s body exploded but it was a clone. The real Wang Yu had already landed behind the God of Puppets’ back. Both his hands were on guard with the weapons readied.
“Old Bull is actually doing the hinder strikeback!” Ming Du couldn’t help but shout loudly when he saw Wang Yu’s stance.
Hinder strikeback was a very old school style of fighting. It first appeared in a PVP game. The main gist of this fighting style was to defend when the opponent attacked you. The moment the opponent finished execution of his attack, he would counter with a strikeback. This fighting style was known as hinder strikeback.
Because this fighting style was extremely boring and without any real skill, not many experts liked it. It was also called the ‘Turtle Style’.
“Eh? That’s true! But if Crotch Lord was sent flying, how did Old Bull do it?”
Everyone was an expert, so they were naturally able to recognise this infamous fighting style. The only thing they didn’t understand was how Wang Yu was able to execute hinder strikeback in a situation like this.
Top experts who used hinder strikeback only appeared in the early stages of combat games. When there was no hinder value, this would be completely useless… Later on, a few more games included the setting that hinder can be broken through after a few times which was when this skill was further revised.
In >, they wanted to prevent such a style to affect the gaming experience of players. Therefore, warding off hinder would be dependent on the judgement of the attack.
Besides the [Grappling] skill, the usual norm was that the higher the power, the greater the judgement.
For a BOSS like the God of Puppets with endless power, even a Guardian with maximum hinder points wouldn’t be able to withstand a single strike. So how exactly was a Pugilist like Wang Yu able to execute hinder strikeback? This was undoubtedly a supernatural incident.

Wander West, in Shadow
BOOK 1 COMPLETED A young wizard journeys west, through dark forests and dangerous lands, searching for something. Accompanied by a wild witch who has secrets of her own, they come across terrible creatures, hauntings, cursed villages, and memories from their past. Who else will they meet along their journey, and to find what he is looking for, how far will the wizard have to wander west? NOTE: The above synopsis is intentionally written to be as spoiler-free as possible. If you would like a more in-detail synopsis, one that contains minor spoilers, please check out the "Synopsis" chapter at the beginning of this fiction. If you read and enjoy, please leave a rating or review! FORMERLY TITLED: THE GLIMMERLING This story was formerly titled "The Glimmerling", because the first part was a short story of that title; it has since been expanded upon, thus the title change. Chapters 1-8 (30k words) are the first 'arc', if you want to get a feel for the story. To give some context on the setting: Magic is a bit weaker in this story than you might be used to, and we start off following some relatively new magic users. For some perspective, being able to light a campfire with magic is considered relatively advanced for someone who is the age of the main character. Magic can become very powerful - and there are some examples of powerful wizards within this story - but it's not where the main characters are yet. Part of the story is about following them as they learn more about magic. Enemies are also very dangerous, and running, hiding, or trying to talk their way out of a dangerous situation is often a better choice than fighting for the characters. While I have added tags for traumatizing content, sexuality, violence, swearing, etc. I try to avoid super-explicit descriptions of these things. But they are part of the story.
