The Armored Dogman Warrior charged, brandishing its longsword. It held the blade high over its head, spun it in a half-circle flourish, and slashed forward.
The moment Fang Zhen saw the Dogman Warrior's posture, he knew it had a combat skill.
'So this is why it's the leader. It actually knows some form of swordsmanship.'
Fang Zhen thrust his spear forward.
Spear against longsword, the advantage in reach belonged to the spear. The Dogman Warrior was at a clear disadvantage.
Fang Zhen thrust his spear toward the Dogman Warrior's neck. The creature had intended to slash horizontally at Fang Zhen, but it couldn't ignore the spear. It was forced to change the longsword's trajectory, bringing it down on the spear's shaft instead.
A jolt ran through the shaft in Fang Zhen's hands, and his spear was knocked off course.
The Dogman Warrior's strength was considerable. It wasn't as powerful as the Goblin Leader, but it was as strong as a human of equivalent height.
