Chapter 8: Official Player
On the old rundown playground, the Black Armored knight's red eyes glowed in the evening light as he looked at Li Wei.
"H.U.M.A.N...G.I.V.E...U.P," the knight said, looking down at him.
".AND..BeCome..My..FooD..I..Wi..LL..GivE.YoU..30.Secon.d.s." it declared, pointing the pitch-black sword at Li Wei.
"F***k your 18 generations! Do you really think you can make me give up?" Li Wei cursed in an irritating tone.
'Just what crime have I committed to get dragged into this kind of thing?' he thought bitterly.
"29" the knight started counting down.
Li Wei ignored his counting and focused on his panel. 'I should buy Shadow Step and increase my attributes just in case to be prepared,' he thought.
[Ding, Congratulations on learning Shadow Step (Goddess of Death edition) skill.]

"It's done," Li Wei murmured as he looked at his stats.
"25" the knight was still counting down.
"F***k, do you really think I will become your food ?" Li Wei cursed and directly charged towards the knight with a boom.
"Ghwaaa," the knight gave an angry cry when it saw Li Wei's actions and also charged towards him.

"Go to hell," Li Wei shouted as he slashed his sword with full strength.
"Ghwaaa," the knight roared and thrust his sword at him.
*Clang* A metallic sound rang out as their swords clashed, and both took a few steps back.
"What?" Li Wei exclaimed in surprise. He had just increased his attributes, but it didn't seem his power had gone up.
(Don't think that after increasing your attributes you can become powerful. Every level has its own attribute limit, and once you exceed it, you have to rely on yourself to use the attributes above the limit. Don't dream of becoming stronger just by increasing attributes.) Goddess of Death Sera explained to him via telepathy.
"No way, it can't be," Li Wei shouted with an unwilling expression.
He never thought that his high attributes would become useless.
*****
"What do you think, can he survive?" Luna asked, looking at the screen.
"Who knows," Sera didn't answer and watched Li Wei with a mysterious smile.
"Why didn't you tell him about the attribute limit earlier?" Luna inquired with a puzzled expression.
"Umm," Sera made a difficult face as she avoided eye contact with her.
"I forgot," she muttered in a low voice.
"What? You forgot?" Luna exclaimed glaring at her.
"Look, he is distracted in the fight," Sera hurriedly diverted her attention to Li Wei.
"What the hell is he doing?" Luna shouted, irritated looking at the screen.
*****
Li Wei was still depressed about the fact that he couldn't use his attributes fully when he suddenly received a telepathic message again.
(Focus on the fight, you idiot.) Luna, the Goddess of Life, reminded him with anger.
Li Wei came to the realization that he was still in the fight.
"Fireball," he directly launched the skill at the knight who was coming towards him.
"Keke," the knight chuckled and slashed his sword at the incoming fireball.
*Boom* With a sound, the fireball exploded after being slashed, forcing the knight a few steps back again.
"Slash," Li Wei chanted.
A blue light emerged from his sword as he swung it towards the knight with full force.
The knight just looked as his eyes glowed when he saw a blue sword a few centimetres away from him, almost hitting him.
He abruptly turned into a shadow and disappeared.
"Damn," Li Wei cursed when he sensed that his sword had hit nothing and felt someone behind him.
The knight already arrived behind him with 'Shadow Step,' his red eyes glowed as he directly thrust his sword with a whoosh.
"Shadow Step!" Li Wei shouted hurriedly, watching the sword coming towards him.
"Ghwaaaa," the knight roared angrily as he saw he hit nothing.
It looked around and suddenly charged towards a direction with a roar as his black sword turned into an evil crimson glow that emitted the sounds of wailing ghosts.
"S**t," Li Wei appeared a few meters away, only to see a crimson sword only a few centimetres away from his chest, not giving him a chance to dodge and defend.
*Slash* A sound of slashing through the flesh rang out.
"Huh?," Li Wei looked down at his chest to see a wound from a sword that was dripping with blood.
He smelled and tasted the blood as it flowed out from his mouth and nose.
"Brother!!!" Li Xin screamed, tears spilling from her eyes upon seeing him injured, without a care. She directly ran towards him.
"XinXin.. don't come here!" Li Wei shouted with difficulty, warning her with a pale and terrified face.
When the knight's attention was attracted by her shout.
"No!" Li Wei felt a chill run down upon his spine, when he saw the knight looking at Li Xin.
He couldn't let happen anything to her never.
But his body refused to move. He felt angry at himself for not being careful.
'Damn, only if I have more power, only if I have leveled up more,' he cursed himself for being an idiot.
'Move, move, move!' he tried all he could and glared at the black knight with killing intent, wanting to kill it at all costs.
When suddenly his mind became blank and only a thought to kill the black night echoed.
The knight didn't care about Li Wei's shout as he started walking towards Li Xin.
*Cring*
But, a metallic sound rang out stopping him.
The knight saw his hand grabbed by human hands tightly, and the armor around it was cracking.
He looked back to see that it was Li Wei who had grabbed him.
Unlike before, his expression was calm, a terrifying calm, as if he was looking at an ant.
"Ghwaaaa." The knight felt humiliated as he saw a human looking at him like an ant.
He tried to free his hands from him, but it was futile.
Li Wei looked at the knight without any emotion.
"Remember, there are some people who cannot be touched," he whispered in a calm tone.
"Ghwaaaa." The knight roared upon hearing his threat and directly attacked with his other hand.
"You can die," Li Wei said as he punched at his chest, ignoring the attack.
*Crack! Boom!*
A cracking sound rang out as the knight looked at his chest to find a hole of fist size.
His red eyes flickered with horror, turning dark, and with a bang, his body fell to the ground.
[Ding, Congratulations for killing a Level 5 Black Armored Knight. You gained 500 XP.]
"Brother!!!" Li Xin, who arrived, didn't care about anything and directly hugged him, tears falling from her eyes.
Li Wei returned to normal his expression softening.
He looked at her with a wry smile. "Don't worry; I'm alright," he said, ruffling her hair.
Li Xin glared at him. "If you weren't injured, I would've punched you in the face to see if you were alright or not," she scolded with anger.
"Okay, okay, let your lovely brother heal, XinXin," Li Wei distracted her or she might really hit him.
"Heal," Li Xin directly used her skills to heal him not caring about anything.
Li Wei just looked at her and didn't say anything; he was afraid that if he stopped her and said her healing had little effect, she would definitely hit him.
Health Points (HP): 180/500 ↑+3↑+4↑3+
*****
"He just used the attributes beyond the level limit," Luna sighed, looking at him.
"Of course, that girl is his reverse scale; if anyone tries to touch it, he will not just watch. No matter who he is," Sera explained, looking at Li Xin on the screen.
"But this time he was just lucky. If that girl didn't interfere, or if the knight ignored her and attacked him, he would have been dead," Luna pointed out.
"You are right, but that girl's luck played a certain part in it. Also, it isn't easy to use the attributes beyond the limit. Even though he is hiding it pretty well, he knows what he felt," Sera explained, her eyes narrowing a little.
*****
"Um," Li Xin looked at Li Wei, who was now recovered, with a pout and teary eyes.
"It hurts," Li Wei groaned a little as he rubbed his cheek because it was bitten by Li Xin.
Earlier he stopped her from healing him because her mana was running low.
He then purchased three bottles of healing potion to heal himself only to get bitten by her later.
"Why are you looking at me like this?" he asked, seeing the glaring eyes of her.
"How did you kill him?" she asked, looking at the knight's dead body.
"I don't know," Li Wei replied, confused.
When the knight turned towards Li Xin, he lost all his reasoning.
He didn't care how he killed him; he only wanted Li Xin to be safe.
Looking at his confused expression, Li Xin changed the topic.
"Let's go, brother; you should at least change your clothes," she said, looking at his torn and bloodied clothes.
"Okay, let's go," seeing that she changed the topic, he finally felt relieved.
He didn't know how he killed the knight, but he felt something when he did it and he didn't wanted it feel it again.
