《MMORPG: Martial Gamer》Chapter 1254. Hundred Gold Wood
Advertisement
Boundless Ocean had always been this type of person. He was known for being the nice man who would never argue with others. He merely smiled towards Black Sky Yellow Earth’s provocation.
Despite knowing about Boundless Ocean’s good temper, Black Sky Yellow Earth was still unhappy when he saw his attitude. Therefore, he pointed at Boundless Ocean and said, “Hey! Do you dare to fight the next match against me?”
“Sure!” Boundless Ocean nodded as he accepted Black Sky Yellow Earth’s challenge with a smile.
“Damn it!” Wang Yu was dazed, “This Boundless Ocean fella is way too nice? Why did he accept a challenge that easily?”
“Tsk! You really think there are good guys here? Just watch what happens next,” Fearless commented.
Two players were sent to the arena.
It was indeed like what Fearless said. To be the leader of the number one squad in the country, Boundless Ocean was naturally not a person to be trampled upon despite his character.
The two players sent up for the second match were naturally not Boundless Ocean and Black Sky Yellow Earth.
Great Desolate Squad sent out a Pugilist called Universe Desolate while Kyushu Squad sent out a Guardian called Hundred Gold Wood.
When Black Sky Yellow Earth saw that Boundless Ocean wasn’t on the arena, he shouted and scolded Boundless Ocean, “Shameless! Didn’t you say you’ll be up?”
“Haha!” Boundless Ocean smiled and said, “We’re pretty much the same.”
Both were shameless fellas.
…
Even though both team leaders were not up, the ones sent out were both renowned experts too.
There was no need to talk much about Universe Desolate. The Great Desolate Squad was named after him so that was a representative of his ability. The only pity was that this fella actually chose the weakest job in > — a Pugilist.

Of course, spectators who had watched so many fights no longer had the notion that Pugilists were useless. This was especially after realising that none of the Pugilist who went up the stage was a pushover of any sorts. Of course, the Pugilists from Team A Murder Of Crows…
Hundred Gold Wood was an old expert from Kyushu Squad. Even though he didn’t have an arrogant title like Thunderlord Block had as the number one Guardian in the country, his skills were not any weaker than Thunderlord Block.
Something worth noting was that this fella was a fatty over two metres tall and over 150kg in real life. In the game, he was several folds rounder than his actual person. Standing there, he was as wide and solid as a wall. His mere presence was enough to let the opponent feel oppressed.
Universe Desolate, on the other hand, was a nimble, dainty and delicate Pugilist. Standing on the stage with Hundred Gold Wood, the small looked incredibly small while the big looked incredibly large. It was, in fact, a comical sight.
As the countdown ended, the match began.
Universe Desolate surged towards Hundred Gold Wood without saying anything.
Hundred Gold Wood lifted the shield in his hands calmly to protect his chest.
In >, a player’s equipment would be adjusted according to the size of the user. A shield was not an exception.
Even though a shield’s attributes wouldn’t improve from an increase in size, a shield with a bigger surface area would be able to defend more attacks.
This was because all Guardians were basically big blocks of rock.
Hundred Gold Wood was much larger in size than ordinary Guardian which was his advantage.
In the game, this fella was over two and a half metres tall so his shield was over three metres. With his shield raised, Hundred Gold Wood was basically covering half the space of the arena.

At this moment, Universe Desolate had already arrived in front of Hundred Gold Wood. He leaped upwards and was about to smash Hundred Gold Wood’s brain with his fist.
“B*stard!”
Hundred Gold Wood hurriedly used [Taunt] by pointing his middle finger.
Universe Desolate was pulled to his front.
Instead of waiting for Hundred Gold Wood to attack, Universe Desolate activated his [Inner Breath Roll] to break free of Hundred Gold Wood’s [Taunt].
“Impressive!” “Impressive!”
Fearless and the rest complimented at the sight of this move. Even Wang Yu gave his thumbs-up.
As everyone knew, a Pugilist was not proficient in any weapons who had a lower damage output. Even though they could use all kinds of weapons, most of their skills fall upon their fists and legs. Therefore, this was a disadvantage they had compared to the other jobs.
From another perspective, fists and legs have their benefits too. As long as it was within the range of penetration, a Pugilist would be an unstoppable force.
However, this had to be built on the basis of ‘penetration’.
When facing a massive Guardian like Hundred Gold Wood, penetration was exceedingly difficult. In addition to that bronze wall-like shield, even an expert like Universe Desolate would find it hard to force a penetration.
But Universe Desolate was much smarter than expected. This fella actually exposed a mistake, allowed Hundred Gold Wood to pull him in before making use of his opponent’s strength to complete the penetration.
A series of moves like that not only required exquisite skills but also guts. He was indeed a peak grade expert to be able to think of a way to penetrate in this manner.
At this moment, Universe Desolate was less than half a metre away from Hundred Gold Wood. With an extension of his arm, Universe Desolate pulled Hundred Gold Wood’s hair and dragged it downwards. Hundred Gold Wood was forced to bend over as Universe Desolate executed [Knee Strike].
“Boom!”
Universe Desolate’s knee smashed Hundred Gold Wood’s face firmly.
-11411
A red coloured number appeared above Hundred Gold Wood’s head.
Ten thousand HP might not be a lot to a high HP player like Hundred Gold Wood. However, Universe Desolate’s [Knee Strike] caused the stun effect.
A Pugilist was a master of consecutive skills. Once Hundred Gold Wood was stunned, Universe Desolate took a few steps forward, stepped on Hundred Gold Wood’s knee to jump upwards before executing [Rising Dragon Fist].
Hundred Gold Wood was in his stunned state so he was naturally unable to dodge that in time.
“Boom!”
Universe Desolate’s fist landed on Hundred Gold Wood’s chin.
Initially, Universe Desolate thought that this fist was enough to send Hundred Gold Wood flying. However, what he didn’t know was how heavy Hundred Gold Wood actually was. This fist was merely enough to straighten his back and not send him flying.
“F*ck! Is he a BOSS? Why is the airborne skill useless against him?”
The spectators were taken aback.
Vainglory was also astonished.
“What BOSS!” Fearless commented, “Hundred Gold Wood executed a ‘stabilising’ skill right before he was stunned!”
“No wonder!” Vainglory scratched his chin when he heard that.
Stabilising was a Guardian’s Super Armour skill which could dismiss the effects of any non-forceful control skills like an airborne strike.
Universe Desolate’s strikes were too quick so before his Super Armour effect ended, his [Rising Dragon Fist] was already on the way. Therefore, it was able to stop the airborne effect effectively. After all, both of them were professional experts with incredible PK skills. Outside of pure skills, a moment of slip up could be costly.

Binary of Life and Death
Monsters, gold, chaos, glory, adventure, what more could attract two of the greatest players of all time to Sugarea, the most popular MMORPG of its time. But everyone makes errors, and unfortunate for these two brilliant players, they have made the grave mistake of not actually sleeping like normal humans and missed out on the very moment the new Dark Legion update would take effect. Or did they? They wake in what seems familiar yet not, but they soon realize their predicament. They are inside their game avatar's bodies! A half-Demon and a Dragonoid are now struggling with more than just power, these two men have to find their new purpose and calling in a completely different world. Will they concur it like ordinary land or will they enlighten the planet into equality? Do figures pull strings in the dark or is everything open to the public eye? Nothing is certain except the unknown, and nothing is ever as it seems... This is an Isekai story, as such, some parts may sound either cliché or similar to others, but I assure you, I tried to prevent that. To make it known, I took quite a lot of inspiration from the light novel/anime Overlord, but that doesn't mean it's a direct rip-off of it. You'll find there to be quite the amount of differences. Just a little heads up as well, you should expect irregular uploads, as it takes me a long time to write each chapter. I am currently trying for once every other week on Sundays around 10:00 A.M. Chapters are usually 7k words and up, with the longest (chapter 3) being 10.3k words. So, if you like to sit down and read a long chapter every two weeks at 10:00 A.M. EST on Sundays, then you can waste your time here! Small disclaimer: Profanity is far and few between, and mostly used by side characters, rarely the main character. When something with gore happens, I describe to the best of my ability, which will only get better the longer I write this... :) Small cuts between perspectives happen, and can hide what some characters do, which will be revealed in future chapters, I'm not that lazy... all the time... There are some parts that are long blocks of text, most, if not all, of them, are characters talking, but I try not to info dump. I know one of the tags says "Psychological", and for the most part, it is, but it's not as prominent as other stories, instead, it's more hidden and scattered, but I did try to make the pieces I did reveal all fit together. Cover art is bound to be changed when I have a good picture to use, so the Yin-Yang is a placeholder for now unless yall wanna gimme something to use *wink wink nudge nudge*. So yeah, please give it a try, as I have nothing better to do with my life, and I am banking solely off of a career in literature and am hoping that I can create a story that can actually be called something more than a child's imagination running wild. The eventual and inevitable end to the story won't be for a long while, at least till chapter 40 or so. I have thought long and hard about the message and themes at play, so I hope you, the reader (who has some amazing hair btw), can enjoy and partake on this adventure with me into my dark empty pit of an imagination.
