CHAPTER TEXT:
"Uh, yes, it's just a chapter combining three parts." No one has ever seen the water steward take action, or those who have seen her in action are already dead.
People only know that her profession is related to water, but whether her name has also been changed because of that cannot be confirmed. However, no one is clear about what her profession is or what skills she possesses.
Perhaps the person who knows the most about her is Tong Steward, who has a decent relationship with her. This time, the water steward took decisive action, and it was something she had to do.
That drop of water shot toward Jin Zhongyuan in the air. Although its speed was not fast, the pressure it emanated while moving was immense, as if what was drifting toward him was not a droplet but an entire lake.
Jin Zhongyuan's two door god shields were his weapons, dull and unremarkable, except for the brightly colored door god images, as if they were a pair of antiques. But no one would think they were worthless; otherwise, how could they be used by an eight-star evolver to combat someone of the same level? Clearly, they were equipment of golden grade.
With a thud, it didn't make a sound, but it caused a tremor in the space around it.
Jin Zhongyuan's body remained straight, but he was pushed back a considerable distance by the immense force.
After encountering a powerful blow, the shields could no longer conceal their grade; a burst of golden light erupted as if a child who had just been hit was swearing to take revenge.
The water steward blinked, and another droplet of water appeared beside her.
Jin Zhongyuan spread his arms parallel to his body, glancing at the shield that had just blocked the droplet, and upon seeing no issues, he felt relieved.
This woman’s casual attack was surprisingly powerful!
“&……%……%@￥#” In his panic, Jin Zhongyuan spoke a string of his country's language, but the water steward did not understand it.
She didn't want to understand it either.
When faced with something that concerned her life, the water steward was no longer that gentle woman.
Next to the droplet of water hovering beside her, a second identical sparkling liquid appeared, followed by a third, fourth…
In an instant, dozens of droplets were already floating in front of her.
Jin Zhongyuan fell silent; he knew that the woman in front of him was determined to kill him.
His arms moved back in front of him, and the shields clashed together, producing a crisp sound. A force emanated from them, causing a strange up-and-down ripple around him, as if an energy wall had appeared in front of him.
“Defender?”
Since Jin Zhongyuan had taken out the shields, the water steward had guessed his profession. Now, seeing this man from the Yalu River using a defensive skill, she felt a mix of surprise and annoyance.
Defenders are a generic term for a type of evolver who specializes in defense, far exceeding their own offensive abilities in this regard. Their profession, skills, and even bloodlines are all dedicated to defense.
For example, Shengyuan is such a type of evolver.
Defenders always appear unassuming, yet facing them is something no profession would desire.
These individuals are incredibly hard to deal with, resembling a turtle shell; after fighting for a long time, they might remain unscathed, and when your skills go into cooldown, they can still use brute force to entangle you.
Especially for ranged evolvers, if they can't kill a defender with an attack, the outcome could be dire.
The water steward initially planned for a quick battle, but encountering a defender made her somewhat frustrated.
The space could collapse at any moment; she needed to exit early to be cautious.
The water steward's body began to float, and a light mist of water appeared beneath her feet, lifting her up entirely.
Delicate patterns began to emerge on her white robe, quickly forming a cloud-like design, a light gray but perfectly coordinated with the white gown, appearing seamless.
Upon closer inspection, fine threads of rain were drifting through the clouds on her robe.
