"Then this so called 'level 1' what is it?What significance does it hold to your people." Gideon was spurred on by the answers he had already recieved but he was soon disappointed.
"I can't tell you...they have already arrived." The human answered as more humans had arrived.
There were a small number who were taller and more muscular as well as having a far more pronounced presence.Radway quickly realised that the humans had gotten stronger then before and the strongest one hadn't appeared yet.
That didn't matter just yet but what did matter was that one of the stronger humans began to attack him.This one was slightly stronger then the one from before.This would be a tough battle.
Radway parried a spear thrust successfully but the force and speed behind it forced him back a bit.Gideon Fleece immediately began barking instructions to the students.
"Students prepare for battle!"
The students immediately got active as the humans began to attack them.
Gideon was about to go help Radway when he felt some danger.He leapt back as a rather powerful human landed in his previous position with his metal spear embedding itself in the Earth.
Everyone saw this particular human who towered over even the stronger ones with a very muscularly pronounced definition.His equipment was also more advanced.Hos sheer presence commanded authority and power.
Gideon narrowed his eyes at the opponent who had targeted him.Clearly this wasn't going to be as easy as he thought.
"Joshua do you think you can handle the kobold?" Arther asked in a cold tone
"Yes Arther it should be easy especially if I use the epic rank berserker rage skill." Joshua grinned at the kobold and deliberately mocked the difficulty of the upcoming fight.
Radway wanted to scoff and retort but due to the strengh of that earlier thrust he kept it to himself.Gideon widened his eyes at what he heard.Epic rank?berserker rage skill?It was probably an ability he gained after reaching the so called level 1.
"Very well I'll leave it to you...the rest of you kill those small fry." The students practically bristled when they heard how they were referred to but they couldn't exactly do anything to this powerful human known as "Arther".
They could however let their anger out on the surrounding humans.One of the students,a young lizardman let out a surge of projectile acid vomit that melted the arm of a level 1 regular human down to the bone.
The young lizardman was about to celebrate when another human grabbed the injured humans arm with glowing yellow hands and healed him in seconds.The formerly injured human gave his gratitude and then glared at the student who had injured him.
He then grew some sort of dark blue crystal scales which only covered his hands,wrists and arms all the way up to the elbow.He then charged at the students along with the other humans.
The students met them in battle.
...
Gideon was awestruck as Arther was able to match him blow for blow in terms of physicality.He also used multiple different seemingly disconnected abilities at different intervals.
Whenever Gideon would think he was about to land a blow the human would cover that body part in dark blue crystal scales.These scales appeared to drastically increase the durability of the effected body part.The human also appeared to have the ability to retract these scales and could call them anywhere on his body.
Whenever the human misjudged an attack or failed to block an attack and got hit on uncovered skin.He would make his hands glow yellow to touch and heal himself.
Gideon was certain now,these mobs were more dangerous then they initially appeared.He had to finish this one off quickly and kill the other humans.
"I guess I'll have to get somewhat serious then." Gideon lengthened his scythe like claws on his hands and feet!
These claws began dripping corrosive venom.
"Venom slash"
Ten arcs of corrosive venom was launched at high speed towards Arther.Arther simply smirked and disappeared from his position.Gideons eyes widened and then he felt a large killing intent from the side.
Gideon dodged to the side to see a spear head where his chest originally was.
"Teleportation!"
Gideon was gobsmacked.Teleportation was usually reserved for highly skilled mages who could perform the correct calculations.Arther smirked at him as he was confident in winning.
As the human progenitor he was able to do the things all the other humans could do along with all their skills.He still had plenty of other hidden cards on the table.The rare grade skills healing hands and hardening he had used so far were already proving useful in combat.The epic grade teleportation skill from Katarina was also really useful.
