YM778.TV Chapter 337 - 337
Among all the stats, Agility was one of the most important, because it could decide a battle even more than Strength or Endurance. Every point of Agility had a significant and cumulative effect.
85 points made Shiken better than Janken who couldn\'t even force back Falcone at all, but it didn\'t change his circumstances. Even with the Blood Rage, Shiken was losing his life the fastest of the three.
He was receiving up to 1.5 points of damage from each of Malone\'s attack and after taking 250 strikes since he could barely overclock himself to defend against 50 strikes with his two blades, his hp was falling by 375 points per second.
From his starting 14,000 HP, Shiken only had about 10,200 left after just ten seconds. At this rate, Malone would only need another 30 seconds to kill him!
As for Jones, he was facing a moderate level of difficulty. After all, Hatchken was also a physical fighter who used spiked gauntlets to fight, and his three physical stats were decent.
The Orc Pugilist\'s Strength was 146, his Agility was 76, and his Endurance 136. He was strong enough to trade blows with Jones, his speed allowing him to deflect 1/4th of the attacks on him and durable enough that Jones only dealt 1 point of damage per attack.
Not to mention his Primary Class ensured that he had the most experience in hand-to-hand fights making him able to predict where Jones would. This allowed him to react accordingly despite the bug being faster.
However, this had the horrific consequence of allowing Jones to learn from a Master in his craft directly. As if that wasn\'t bad enough, that experience was also being uploaded into the bugcloud and shared by the various parties here.
Soon enough Falcone and Malone had glints in their eyes as their fighting styles became better. Not to mention the experience of fighting against a hammer user and blade user were also being shared up.
At this time, the delayed Chain Lightning that had a while longer due to the panicked Liam\'s mental state was finally fired out, striking the three bugs and dealing heavy damage to them.
With no natural resistance or magic resisting skills, each one of them suffered 1,200 points of damage.
It also stunned them for a few seconds allowing the three fighting orcs to back away and quickly take out their life-saving items and use them.
Henson, who had been delayed for the same reason as Liam, also finished his weird dance at this time.
The apparition of a wolf howled to the sky and rushed at the three bugs who had just shaken off their stun. The wolf struck at the three at the same time with a single swipe.
The effect of this was shocking, the three bugs being smashed into nearby debris. They had also taken some slight damage from that at 300 points, showing just how powerful this apparition was.
Right now, this was what the stats of the two parties looked like.

Darius felt it was a pity.
After all, the Bugsy brothers didn\'t have any skills to use their MP for, their battle experience was thin so they were relying on their learning speed and overwhelming stats to make do.
However, once skills and spells came into play, they were clearly being overpowered by their foes. One spell had taken away a chunk of health while Henson sacrificed a huge amount of MP to summon a powerful apparition that could hold them down.
At least their HP regen was crazy.
Even the three orcs had martial skills they hadn\'t yet used due to their panic and subconscious fear. Now that they had retreated and used healing items to greatly recover their HP, they displayed surprised expressions on their faces.
Why did it seem like… these bugs... were not as fearsome as they had initially thought?
Once this thought crossed their minds, their previously stifled logic began to run over time. For the three fighters, it wasn\'t that good since they had barely average Int, but Liam and Henson shared a look, showing pleasant surprise in their eyes as they had seen through the problem.
"These three just evolved from a swarm of Amateur bugs! No wonder, they don\'t have any skills or battle experience yet! Quick, we have to use our own skills to subdue them, as they have no way of knowing how to defend against them as is!" Liam explained with a filthy smile.
"It is best to overwhelm them quickly, for they are known for their learning capabilities! This is why in the short span of less than a minute, they\'ve been able to improve so quickly! Do not fight with techniques, use your skills, and don\'t hold back!" Henson added with a grin.
Once they heard this, the three orcs rose to their feet with comprehension. They carried their weapons with dark glints in their eyes, the fear beaten back by confidence and killing intent.
After all, what was feared most was the unknown. The Master bugs of the past had a great history of massacre and the hearsay had left the later generations filled with nightmares.
However, the ones before them were Master bugs that had been born from newly established hives. For a new hive like Darius\' that did not have a well-stocked bugcloud, the new Masters were basically the pioneers.
