Chapter 127: Chapter 123 When did you get the illusion that I only know fire magic? (Seeking monthly ticket)_1
Translator: 549690339 |
At this time, the competition for the several rare three-star remnant souls was the most intense. Two of them already had confirmed owners, while the elite of the old lords were still competing for the rest…
They’d occasionally look at the competing arena with a serious gaze, then steal glances at their competitors. Their gazes would sometimes collide, sparking tension.
As a Battle Will, especially competing in multiple matches, strength is indeed
the most important aspect, but strategy is also indispensable.
These ‘old lords’ have not been for long, and the number of elite-level subordinates they had was few, ranging from just a couple to a mere one or two. Assessing whether the opponent still had a trump card was what these lords were wracking their brains over at this moment, often waiting until the countdown on the stage was nearing its end before dispatching their own
subordinates.
Mu Yuan shifted his gaze to the two most precious beams of light.
The Hero’s Proof and the Key to the Secret Region.
Perhaps the old lords were still focusing on the rare three-star remnant souls, hence they had not yet started competing for these two.
“The competition for The Hero’s Proof will undoubtedly be the most intense, and it has to do with the lack of more specific information about this Key to the
Secret Region.”
Betting on a secret realm that may not suit oneself is definitely not as good as having the infinitely possible Hero’s Proof.
This is a divine item that many senior lords seek but cannot obtain.
The fact that he could ‘pick up’ one in the wild was truly Ou Huang was a lucky
charm.
“If I let Dead Bone compete for the Key to the Secret Region, it would probably
be a safe choice, but The Hero’s Proof might be out of my grasp…”
He wanted to be greedy!
For this, he could use some small tactics.
“Duo Lai! It’s up to you.”
“Gulu~!”
Mu Yuan walked straight towards the beam of light where the Key to the Secret
Region was stored and lightly touched it.
‘Prompt: Please select your troops.’
‘Devouring Slime-Duo Lai!’
Duo Lai, dressed in an ordinary +3 deep blue robe, stepped onto the wide battlefield in its human-like silhouette, with a complete mimicry posture.
The countdown had already started, the sand in the hourglass was slowly streaming down.
Duo Lai crossed her arms, her clear eyes sweeping around: Who else? I, Duo Lai,
want to fight ten of you!
The sudden activation of the competitive arena startled the old lords who were fighting for the remnant souls on the other side.
“The new lords are dishonorable! They actually opened the arena when we were
unprepared!”
“Young man, the water of the Key to the Secret Region is too deep, you can’t
hold it!”
“First, let’s eliminate this junior of Tianyuan, then we brothers will have a
serious competition.”
“Good!”
An old lord spoke confidently.
Only one person was fully alert.
He was Liu Cheng from the Giant Stone Territory, who had experienced the horror of this ‘Fire Method’.
“However, I was careless in the previous fight. It’s still uncertain who will win
in another battle.”
He had considered how to win.
He needed to be fast, accurate, and ruthless, not giving the ‘Fire Method’ the opportunity to turn into a cannon.
Of course, that wasn’t enough. In order to secure a win against her, Liu Cheng even borrowed a bead that could enhance fire resistance from his friends.
If he faced the fire magic girl again, his chances of winning would be at least eighty-eight percent.
However,
“I wanted to reserve my trump card for the capture of The Hero’s Proof, it’s a
pity that I won’t have a chance to fight again.”
Boom-
The fireballs fell one after the other like cannonballs, and in the tremors and
roars, Duo Lai easily took away the third challenger.
“Hiss!”
An old lord gasped, “Is this the worth of being number one in the national gold list? It’s beyond imagination!”
The three challengers that Duo Lai defeated were not strong, all of them were at
the peak of the Professional Level.
Which was a test by the old lords.
Even so, she, Duo Lai, still displayed an invincible might.
Time ticked away, and for several consecutive minutes, no lords took to the stage. The lords were thinking. To defeat this fire magic girl, who could continuously throw fireballs without interruption, and whose output was extremely exaggerated, they would have to send out their main generals.
But once the main general is defeated…
For a moment, a Halberd Guard who had just entered the Elite Level took action. After tens of rounds of fighting, it still lost to the fire magic girl.
But, it also forced out the girl’s real power—flight.
A powerful lord was about to make a move.
The Lord of Huashui, Lu Hongfei. He was one of the most competitive lords
here, on par with the Looking Sky Lord.
Even so, even when facing the main general of a newbie lord…
The Lord of Huashui was still very cautious.
‘The performance when fighting against the Halberd Guard is still not the full strength of this fire magic girl, her real killer move is a super-large Fireball Technique that has extremely destructive power, which even Energy Armor, can’t defend against!’
In the ear of the Lord of Huashui echoed Liu Cheng’s whisper.
He had a slight friendship with Liu Cheng.
After paying some price, he got more detailed information about the fire magic girl, and borrowed a bead that could enhance fire resistance from Liu Cheng.
Everything is ready, and the chance of winning is full.
“Let me see what the capabilities of the legendary top newbie are.
“Go, my subordinate, tear the enemy apart!”
A grey figure entered the field.
It was over two meters tall, covered in dense grey hair, and had a slightly hunched body, exposing the part at the back of its head, where the hair stood out like spikes.
Its eyes were blood red, the armour was spiked, showcasing its ferocity and
bloodlust.
“It’s the Ferocious Wolf Warrior!”
The rank of the Ferocious Wolf Warrior is slightly lower than that of the Giant, but this subordinate is an old general who has been following the Lord of Huashui through battles. He has remarkable achievements and a high level. He stared fixedly at the shadow in the distance, his bloodthirsty gaze hiding the cunning of an old general.
It had Spiritual Wisdom! It no longer acted simply on instinct, and could also carry out more precise operations under instructions.
When the countdown to the battle on the field reached zero, the Ferocious Wolf Warrior immediately burst forth with energy. Flames rose up and entangled around itself, turning into energy armor that covered its entire body.
Boom—– !
The ground cracked, with spider-web-like cracks spreading out, and the Ferocious Wolf Warrior disappeared.
The next second, it appeared at the side of the fire magic girl, and its large blade, taller than a person, swept past.
But he missed again!
Her rise into the air was so fast! The Lord of Huashui thought to himself.
‘Because it’s a leap da-!1
Standing in the sky above, Duo Lai raised her hand, and in between breaths, she condensed one hot fireball after another, and then continuously threw them down onto the land.
Yet, the Ferocious Wolf Warrior easily broke free from the bombardment of the fireballs, his energy armour hardly damaged.
He pulled out blade after blade from his storage device, his muscles bulging as he threw them into the fray.
The blades tore through the air, emitting a sharp whistling sound. The flying magical girl dodged most of them, but there were still two blades that she couldn’t avoid, and her thin robe was pierced.
Clang——-
The sound of metal clashing emanated from beneath her robe.
“She’s wearing treasure armor!”
“Indeed, these top-ranking commanders from the next generation surely carry three or four pieces of rare equipment!
(Mu Yuan: I apologize, I am the inadequate one, the fault is mine.)
The magical girl continued to unleash her fireballs.
The Ferocious Wolf Warrior kept sprinting, breaking out from the exploding flames, and occasionally counterattacking with hidden weapons.
The two commanders seemed to be at a stalemate.
However, the energy armour took a heavy toll on the user. If this stalemate continues, the Ferocious Wolf Warrior would undoubtedly be the first to fall.
It should have been like this.
“Fortunately, 1 borrowed the Fire Resistance Bead from Liu Cheng. “The Ferocious Wolf Warrior is equipped with rare treasure armor and possesses the Fire Resistance Bead. Even if he gets hit by several fireballs, he’ll only suffer superficial injuries that won’t affect his combat power. If the magical girl wants to use the ‘Super-large Fireball,’ I will let the Ferocious Wolf Warrior activate his energy armour, and there will be enough time.
So judged the Lord of Huashui.
At his indication, the Ferocious Wolf Warrior had already taken off his energy armour, only a faint glow of energy still emanating from him, enough to mislead the opponent.
In actual fact, the Ferocious Wolf Warrior’s energy consumption was quite low. If they continued this stalemate, the advantage would soon heavily favour him.
Victory was at his fingertips!
Such was the strategy of a cunning veteran lord.
Even when the Lord of Tianyuan rises to the top in the future, he would not forget this tough lesson learnt today.
However, the magical girl hovering mid-air suddenly stops her bombardment.
‘Has she run out of energy?’
‘No, it can’t be this soon.’
But then she raises her arms again, her fingertips glowing with a dazzling arc
of electricity.
Similarly, within her eyes, a faint arc of lightning emerges.
A blinding thunderbolt falls from the sky, followed by more unceasingly, much like the previous machine-gun-like fireball technique.
The Ferocious Wolf Warrior was forced to hastily form his energy armour due to these attacks, but he still suffered significant injuries.
Next,
Winds surge, visible, green cyclones of wind swirling around the fiery magical girl. They transform into howling blades of wind, crashing down with a mighty force.
They chop the ground, leaving behind smooth cuts, and also cause cracks to form in the energy armour of the Ferocious Wolf Warrior, leading him to increase his energy output and repair the damage.
But he could only barely hold on, he ran around frantically.
Amongst the fire, lightning, and wind.
Like countless calamities unleashed, chasing the grey figure.
The pupils of the Lord of Huashui contracted abruptly.
He looked at the girl in the sky, nonchalantly raining down disaster as if it were child’s play.
Her seemingly clear but dim-witted eyes looked harmless.
But it was the greatest mockery towards him.
“When did you make me believe that you could only use fire magic?”
Indeed, when was that?
Liu Cheng, you deceived me!
Under the continuous bombardment, the Ferocious Wolf Warrior finally fell, his energy was drained too excessively, leading to defeat.
“I, Duo Lai, am quite powerful-!”
in the spiritual link, Miss Duo claimed, accompanying her words was an emoticon of Slime with hands on hips.
She is just so versatile, without a single weakness, and smart.
Shaking the hearts of the lords.
Liu Cheng fell into self-doubt.
Other lords also hesitated.
The question is not “this child is terrifying,” but rather, do they still stand any chance of challenging and defeating this mysterious girl with an unknowable past?
She’s just too mysterious!
Just like the Lord of Tianyuan, who suddenly appeared out of nowhere and remains a mystery till today.
The combination of flying and quick bombardment was also very troublesome. Most of their commanders would feel stifled when facing this girl.
The Lord of Huashui also hesitated.
He still had an ace up his sleeve, a commander stronger than the Ferocious Wolf Warrior. However, after consideration, he shook his head.
He had reserved this trump card for obtaining The Hero’s Proof. It couldn’t be used here.
“Ding-!”
Far away, someone initiated the capture of The Hero1 s Proof.
Like a spark that lit the fire, it drew the attention of most of the lords.
For the moment, the number of challengers greatly decreased.
After Duo Lai managed to defeat two not very strong elite challengers, she aimlessly hovered mid-air, swaying back and forth.
Time passed by.
“Ding!”
“Notification: You have obtained the special item ‘Key of the Secret Realm , please check the details yourself.
At this moment,
Boom————–
Liu Cheng’s giant fell heavily to the ground, regrettably dropping out of the competition for The Hero’s Proof.
The battle was extraordinarily fierce.
Even the common elite commanders were like mere extras, defeated within a handful of moves.
Despite that, some seasoned lords were still desperate enough to send their own commanders into the fray, grasping at the slim chance.
They were willing to sacrifice other treasures for the remote chance of obtaining The Hero’s Proof.
Because it represented infinite possibilities!
The other lords stood on the sidelines, their eyes filled with envy-they didn’t even have the opportunity to gamble on a slim chance and were destined to be mere spectators.
Being a ‘commander who had already taken the field’, the Lord of Tianyuan, watched from afar, without showing any intention to step forward.
