Who designed this underworld dungeon?

Stella took out her weapon, a mace as long as her forearm.

She had prepared a strategy. Gargoyles are highly resistant to slashing, stabbing, and hacking, but weak to hitting. Hammers and the like can easily break their defense.

There is nothing to be afraid of!

At this time, she saw Gong Qiying leisurely took out a large shield and a lance, and it seemed that he was going to use these two weapons.

"Uh," Stellan hesitated and asked, "Gargoyles are resistant to gun weapons, right? Isn't the damage from the lance not enough?"

"The damage is not enough, but why do I have to hurt it?"

"Without damage, you can't beat the monster,"

Gong Qiying smiled mysteriously, "Just watch my performance in a while, don't interfere,"

He really left enough suspense, and Stellan just liked it!

Entering the fortress, she obediently stayed near the door and didn't go deep, so that the gargoyles would regard Gong Qiying as the first target.

"I want to see how you fight,"

Stella was still a little unconvinced. From ancient times to the present, what is the most important thing in fighting monsters? All adventurers will answer that it is damage!

Without enough damage, every attack on the monster is just a tickle!

In today's era, adventurers have a consensus - focus on damage, ignore skills, and don't defend.

Even the sword and shield warrior Xiuen, his most common means of attack is actually to hit people with a shield, and defense is only occasionally.

So when Gong Qiying took out a heavy shield, Stellan was a little puzzled. Holding a large shield would affect the battle too much, not to mention that it would affect agility, no matter how you look at it, it is not cost-effective.

"Ahhh!"

While hearing the roar of the gargoyle, Gong Qiying threw a flying knife at the monster on the ceiling, successfully attracted hatred, and the gargoyle opened its wings and rushed over!

"Get out of the way," Stellan whispered to herself.

But Gong Qiying did not get out of the way.

He stood there, just holding up the big shield, waiting for the gargoyle's attack like he was scared!

"Bang——"

The gargoyle's huge claws hit the big shield, Gong Qiying's body trembled, but his posture did not collapse! The big shield took the blow perfectly!

This time he should be able to dodge it, right? Stellan stared at it with eyes wide open. If he dodges now, he can give the gargoyle a surprise attack, which is a very profitable approach.

However——

"I poke,"

Hidden behind the big shield, Gong Qiying poked the gargoyle.

"???"

An exclamation mark appeared above Stellan's head. This attack was weak and only scratched a little skin of the gargoyle!

No wonder Gong Qiying walked around the monsters on the road. It turned out that his hard power did not allow him to open the invincible!

"Let me go!" Stellan shouted.

"No, you stay over there,"

Gong Qiying poked the gargoyle again and again. The latter was stunned. It might be the first time it encountered such a light attack since its debut.

But then, the monster was enraged, and the attack fell like a storm, vowing to smash this weak human!

A magical thing happened.

Although the attack was fierce, the big shield was better, and it took all the attacks of the gargoyle!

"Roar--"

The gargoyle roared, opened his hands and was about to lift the big shield, but Gong Qiying seemed to have seen through his movements long ago, and bent down and rolled lightly to avoid it.

Then he hid behind the big shield and poked.

If the gargoyle could speak, he would have started to curse at this moment.

Poke, poke, roll, poke, poke, roll again.

At some point, Stellan was stunned, she had never seen such a wretched fighting style.

Even if another gargoyle rushed over, both of them were bombarded, and the big shield did not deviate.

As the saying goes, quantitative change leads to qualitative change. Soon after, the gargoyle was already broken, and Gong Qiying passed the lance forward and pierced its head.

The same method was followed, and the other one died as well.

"How is it," Gong Qiying thrust his lance into the ground and proudly said, "What a hearty battle,"

Your battle is a fart.

"It's really eye-opening," Stellan didn't know what to say, and her expression was quite interesting. She held it in for a long time before asking, "May I ask what kind of style this is?"

"Shield-poking style! An invincible style!"

Stellan opened her mouth and didn't speak for a long time.

After beating the gargoyle, Gong Qiying didn't disappear, but continued to take her to explore the sick village.

Encountered a highly mobile dog monster, and used a shield-poking to solve it.

Encountered a monkey monster that could throw weapons, and used a shield-poking to solve it.

Encountered a corner and didn't know if there was an ambush of monsters, but used a shield-poking to solve it.

Stellan was confused.

After seeing Gong Qiying use shield to poke away a bunch of monsters that she thought were difficult to deal with, she looked at the mace in her hand and asked carefully:

"Are you still accepting apprentices?"

Under the helmet, Gong Qiying showed a bright smile:

"If you want to learn, I'll teach you,"

"Come, take my shield and weapon, and you walk in front. Yes, hold the shield like this, and rush over to kill the monster in front of you!"

Stella recalled in her mind how Gong Qiying used shield to poke, and launched an offensive against the monster in front of her in the same way.

The big shield was heavy, but she was an elite among adventurers after all, and she could hold on even when facing the impact of large monsters.

It was not bad at the beginning, but as the battle became increasingly tense, her hand holding the shield began to tremble.

The monster seized this opportunity and pushed forward violently!

Her shield was broken!

"Ah,"

Stella quickly took out her mace and smashed the monster's head.

"Why, why won't your shield be broken?" She was now full of doubts.

Gong Qiying waved his hand cheerfully and said, "Didn't you notice that I would choose to put down my shield to recover my energy when I couldn't hold on?"

"Boom--"

Like a lightning bolt hitting her head, Stellan suddenly realized!

It turns out that shield poking is not something that can be played casually, and it requires some skills!

When the enemy attacks, raise the shield, and when you stop, put down the shield to recover your energy. When the enemy makes a move to lift the shield, roll to avoid it.

In just one or two hours, she felt that she had learned something new that she couldn't learn in the past ten years.

The most important thing is that this knowledge is really practical!

The only drawback is that the damage is insufficient.

But!

If she pokes alone, the damage will seem insufficient. What if there are two, three, or even ten people together?

Stellan's mind flashed with a scene where she and ten of her companions held up a large shield and surrounded the monster in the middle, with a long hard object in her hand stabbing the monster, and all the monster's attacks were ineffective and furious, and she watched herself being stabbed to death.

Her body was trembling with excitement, and she was about to blow it just thinking about that scene!

Seeing Stellan's excitement, Gong Qiying smiled even more.

Celebrate, a great shield-stabbing player is born!

Stella was happily holding a shield in front to kill the enemy, immersed in the almost rogue style of shield-stabbing.

And what about Gong Qiying?

He silently took out a small sickle.
