Chapter 341: Changing Opponents

Lilith’s skills in battle were the real thing, suddenly changing her target mid-attack. This sort of high speed technique was not possible for someone unskilled in battle. Lilith had undoubtedly succeeded, and she was only an inch away from the Xiao Lin clone; it had become hard to avoid her attack.

Xiao Lin had even already set his target to the cloned Lilith, preparing to distract her to aid Lilith’s attack.

The opening of the battle was perfect, but they were shocked by what happened next.

It looked like Lilith’s battle scythe had been about to hit the clone when Xiao Lin’s clone suddenly dodged to the right at high speed, narrowly escaping the swinging scythe.

“So fast!”

Xiao Lin’s eyes widened, asking himself if he would have been able to avoid Lilith’s attack if it had been him in that position. However, the clone had done it, and Xiao Lin intimately knew what skill his opponent had used: Miracle. That skill should have been unique to Xiao Lin. He had tried it on the virtual battle system before, and had been unable to find the skill despite the wide variety of options.

However, the clone in front of him had managed to completely replicate his skill. No, it was actually even better than his own! Xiao Lin had accurately calculated it before, and even if he used Miracle, he would definitely not have been able to react so quickly.

Xiao Lin’s expression darkened; he knew that this situation would not be solved easily.

With her sure-hit move missing its mark, even Lilith let out a gasp. She then landed in between a joint attack from the two clones after missing, but Xiao Lin would obviously not let Lilith fight alone. He wielded the Holy Soul Sword and charged in, attacking the Lilith clone.

Xiao Lin’s meaning was clear: he wanted to be the distraction, allowing the more skilled Lilith to handle his own clone. Even if he was at a disadvantage, he would be able to hold on for a while using Phantom Steps and Miracle.

The Lilith clone summoned flames around her scythe, using the skill unique to Lilith. However, with the Xiao Lin clone already using Miracle, Xiao Lin was not surprised. He was long since prepared and used Lightsword, dispersing the waves in midair.

By the time the flames dispersed, the Lilith clone had already closed the distance. Xiao Lin did not panic. He could still hold on with Phantom Steps. Lilith lacked a repertoire of long-ranged attacks since she was not great at magic. She used the battle scythe’s long reach to make up for that, so all he needed to do was pay attention to that.

Thinking about that, Xiao Lin suddenly thought something was weird. The Lilith clone’s scythe had disappeared…

The clone no longer held a scythe, but two shortswords. Xiao Lin had seen Lilith wield them before. She used them in Wildfire Town. Lilith’s spatial bracelet had countless weapons, which were all obviously replicated as well.

Xiao Lin’s expression once again darkened; the cave’s replication seemed to be perfect, even managing to replicate all the weapons and unique skills they had. He was not certain, but he was worried that it could even copy their SS-rank talents.

Of course, he was silently cheering that he did not have any amazing equipment with him. Otherwise, it would have been quite precarious.

The Lilith clone’s speed increased with the light swords, and even with Miracle and Phantom steps, Xiao Lin had a hard time keeping away.

Clank!

Xiao Lin’s Holy Soul Sword clashed with the cloned swords. His numb hands allowed Xiao Lin to be sure that the clone had also copied Lilith’s Bronze-rank skills. Bronze-rank could absolutely oppress those at Black Iron, and Xiao Lin had been forced back a few steps with the attack, but he believed that Lilith would have absolutely suppressed him if it was the real her.

SS-rank talents were impossible to replicate!

Xiao Lin suddenly understood. Lilith had completely mastered her scythe, but it did not mean she had the same mastery with her other weapons. Her skill with the other weapons had probably come from her SS-rank talent, but with the absence of that talent, the clone could not unleash her full strength.

Xiao Lin let out a sigh of relief, converting all his Agility into Strength. With that, he stepped forward. With the Holy Soul Sword in hand, his Basic Swordsmanship was at LV9.

If the clone Lilith took out her scythe again, Xiao Lin would not hesitate to switch everything back to Agility and escape her range of attack, avoiding direct confrontation.

In just a short ten minutes, the two of them had entered an awkward balance. A Lilith without her SS-rank talent and Xiao Lin could not do anything to each other.

However, the situation on the other end was not great either. The cloned Xiao Lin was faster than himself, and with Phantom Steps, Lilith could also not hit the other party.

The two fights ended up circling the cave, neither hitting the other. In the end, Xiao Lin and Lilith returned to the center, and Lilith complained, “How are you so fast!”

Xiao Lin smiled bitterly. “I don’t know either. The clone is faster than me. However, I feel like your clone seems stronger than you as well.”

“Let’s switch.” Lilith let out a breath. She was not used to this sort of fight; it seemed like it was the first time she had met such a fast opponent, and the cat-and-mouse chase was frustrating.

Xiao Lin gaped, and immediately agreed after sensing that Lilith’s breath was a little erratic. The situation was not good for them if it continued because he could feel like the two clones did not seem to be tired at all. Lilith and himself would only get worse as time went on. Using their stamina against them seemed to be how the clones planned on fighting.

Since the Xiao Lin clone was so agile, Xiao Lin would just handle it himself, while Lilith should not have an issue with her SS-rank talent.
