Wizard starting from shoeing donkeys

Mong also took a more serious look for the first time at the young empire warrior he was facing.

The original state of the battle had been one-sided, with Rein almost not having a chance to counter and being only able to passively defend and block.

But now the situation was different, as from time to time Rein could launch effective counterattacks, forcing Mong to take up a defense or block.

Since both men were using heavy Warhammers in the fight, their Strength was unmatched, and with each collision, a resounding boom like that of a great bell could be heard.

And with every intense clash of energies, the shockwaves that arose were so powerful they pressed the ground of the battlefield several centimeters deep, kicking up dust and dirt!

If someone was unfortunate enough to be nearby, the lucky ones would be left dazed by the sonic boom, the next second blown away by the blast wave; the unlucky ones would end up less than whole men.

Truly less than whole: missing an arm or leg was considered light, or they might even find themselves without a head or missing half their torso.

Right then, some unlucky sod got grazed by Rein's Warhammer.

"Huh?"

Rein was surprised to discover that his Warhammer, now deformed by the Hardened Essence Gold, actually had a comet-like transparent phantom sucked into it.

This moment was like a flash of lightning that suddenly crossed Rein's mind.

He quickly glanced at the description of the 'Soul-Crushing Hammer.'

Indeed, it wasn't limited to the use of a specific enchanting Warhammer; it simply said Warhammer.

That is to say, unlike when changing classes where a specific enchanting Warhammer is needed as a medium, 'Soul-Crushing Hammer' is a core Skill of the top Legendary profession, the Warhammer Wizard, not a special ability of any particular hammer.

However, it seemed that a Warhammer of enchanting quality had a slight power enhancement.

In an instant, several ideas flashed through Rein's mind.

He looked at the blue and white Warhammer in the ancient hero Mong's hand with fervent eyes!

"If that's the case, then...."

The next second, Rein launched a Heavy Hammer Furious Strike, which forced Mong to block and with a swift move, he charged towards the direction of dozens of Black Flame monks.

Seeing Rein rushing over, Freeman, who was fighting Langgeler and Felk, twitched his eyelids and cursed in his heart:

"Fuck! You can't beat Master Mong, so you come here to find some presence?"

"So shameless!"

With a swing of his hammer, Rein wreaked havoc among the Black Flame monks, and in the blink of an eye, he took down three of them.

Along with the one unlucky enough to have been grazed by the Warhammer and killed at the start, Rein had already stacked four layers of enhancement effects.

Although each layer was merely Strength +2, it was still four times!

In such a short time, Rein had suddenly gained 8 points of Strength.

When Mong rushed over and saw the long, three transparent phantoms swirling around the Warhammer in Rein's hand, his expression changed again!

In their next clash with the added eight points of Strength, Rein finally began to attack more and defend less, and the situation started to reverse.

And more critically, knowing now that the core skill of the Warhammer Wizard, 'Soul-Crushing Hammer,' wasn't tied to the enchanting Warhammer, Rein looked for chances every few seconds to dart next to a Black Flame monk and conveniently take them out.

Finally, when Rein stacked the ninth layer of effects, Mong's expression changed drastically.

He knew he couldn't continue like this any longer.

This young empire warrior was too strange.

His stamina appeared endless, allowing him to continually use secret techniques, and his Strength kept increasing as he fought.

Mong decided, even if he were to fall into slumber again, he would have to take down this young man.

Suddenly, Mong's Blue and White Warhammer emanated a strange energy fluctuation.

And as Rein spun around and took out another Black Flame monk, finally stacking up to ten layers,

In an instant!

Their eyes met for a brief moment.

It was as if they understood something.

Almost simultaneously, the ground beneath their feet fiercely exploded.

One gray, one silver figure each drew a straight line as they rapidly lunged at each other!

"Clang!!!"

In that split second, two different styles of Warhammers once again collided fiercely!
