Chapter 195: Perfection
“…” Feeling his body being involuntarily lifted, Kaiser came up with a plan.
Taking advantage of this force, he stood up directly.
However, Xinyan was taken aback that he would get up voluntarily, and before she could control her momentum, she collided head-on with the Brown Bear.
-1
Its brow flashed with a dark light, but it quickly faded away.
It seemed that this weapon should have a temporary effect of increasing strength.
Kaiser had prepared for this; his right arm slightly bent, and he smashed backward with his hard elbow!
It must be said that the Brown Bear Warrior was deserving of his identity and grade, both in strength and strategy.
If this hit landed, Red Rabbit would probably find herself in a tough spot.
Unfortunately, compared to the agile Xinyan, his actions were still not swift enough.
Miss!
As her foot slipped, her lithe figure grazed past the enemy’s arm to the side, and her dual daggers crossed as she ruthlessly swung down at the right elbow.
-15924
-34088
The second hit even scored a critical hit.
Adding in the occasional corrosive poison damage effect, the Brown Bear’s health had already dropped to 6%.
Victory was decided.
The countdown stopped at the final 76 seconds, as Kaiser howled and collapsed.
Xinyan looked at him indifferently and took out a small vial from her pocket, sprinkling some powder onto the Brown Bear’s poisoned back, she calmly said to the crowd below, “Can someone please take him down?”
“Boss!” Taco rushed up to the stage, knocked Kaiser down, and before leaving the stage, he cast a deep glance at Xinyan, leaving her momentarily speechless.
Just one more minute; if they could hold on a little longer, they could obtain the title of Little Champion. Who knew another unexpected challenger would appear?
The longer this dragged on, the worse it would be.
With the increasing number of battles, the crowd below had gradually figured out their tactics.
You see, when a boss’s skill mechanics are thoroughly understood, proficient players can even get through it without taking damage.
Besides, there’s another point.
As time passed, the number of powerful figures coming to Moonshadow City would only continue to increase.
There were a total of 5 arenas set up in the city; to gain the champion qualification, one naturally had to challenge their way up. If everyone thought like that, the chance of slipping through would greatly reduce.
Perhaps they would need to try a different arena later.
Lulu was about to dash onto the stage but was stopped by Starry grabbing her rabbit ears.
“Non-participants should not go up; be careful, the referee sitting over there might eat you!” Zane said fiercely.
“I’m sorry, don’t eat me…” the little rabbit said with tearful eyes.
Meanwhile, the figure on the stage, Xinyan, looked over here with confusion.
However, the distance was too far, and it was inconvenient to say anything; once the battle started, unless gravely injured, one could not willingly withdraw. This is to prevent someone from coordinating and feeding themselves to the enemy.
But the Wind Wolf and the unfamiliar Red Rabbit bringing her sister was indeed very strange.
Fenghuayue glanced at Kaiser’s injury; the poison had already been cured by the powder, and now it relied on his powerful regeneration ability to recover automatically.
“Are you going to give up on this arena?” she asked in the team channel.
It wasn’t because the rabbit on stage was Lulu’s sister, but because that previously effective attack had easily decimated the tough-skinned Brown Bear.
They might get instantly taken down if they entered the arena.
“…Let’s switch,” Zane nodded; he didn’t want to deal with this kind of guest boss. If he got one-shot by a critical hit and returned to the city, it would be troublesome.
Before coming here, Xia Yi mentioned.
Endless Water Prison—Yularia, is one of the Twelve Kings, the most trusted subordinate of the Azure Water Sorceress—Aivisha.
Rumors say they were both mentor and friend, their relationship even surpassed certain boundaries.
But that was just a rumor; Yularia never revealed her true appearance.
Not even those belonging to Aivisha’s faction had seen her true form.
The arena tournament held in Moonshadow City had been in preparation for a month. The specific reasons, even Xia Yi was not aware.
A more convincing speculation was that Yularia wanted to find a suitable person to be her confidant.
“If you want to learn more profound things… go participate in the tournament; only by obtaining the title of Little Champion can you qualify to know about the subsequent matters,” Xia Yi said thoughtfully.
“Why are you helping us?” Zane asked, quite puzzled.
The Dark Faction and Light Faction had been at odds for hundreds of years; since they encountered a human, there should be no reason to let them off.
“The story you told is very interesting; how about that reason?”
“…Interesting? Please, he merely added a touch to the game’s official materials and his own information… it’s actually quite serious educational storytelling!”
“Hehe, you really don’t need to worry that much; this place isn’t as frightening as the world thinks.”
The so-called Dark Faction is just a term used by humans, elves, and orcs out of their own fancy.
Those who want to invade foreign lands are mostly warlords who only think of war. Of course, even the king is interested in tribes.
What? If that’s the case… the two factions naturally have a huge gap.
Just one Shadow Lord has drawn forces from frontline cities, ending with the Mad Sword and the Guide’s thief.
“If you encounter any difficulties later, feel free to come to the Strange Pavilion to find me, swapping goods, or… some interesting experiences.”
“…Got it.” Juchan nodded and calmly turned to leave.
“Wait!”
The three couldn’t help but feel tense; she wouldn’t be going back on her word, would she?
“You all want to see Endless Water Prison in your current disguise? Hehe, just those warlords can easily discern your identities,” Xia Yi smiled with narrowed eyes.
“…”
…
“Lulu, you stay here and watch your sister; we have to go now.” Starry released Lulu’s grip, instructing her.
“Ah? Starry, are you also going to the arena?” she tugged at Starry’s clothes reluctantly.
“Yeah.”
“Can’t you stay here?”
“…I really don’t want to fight your sister.”
“Okay… then I’ll wait for your good news!”
Lulu hugged her again.
“And Zane, and Sister Fenghua, I know you all are good people… let’s do our best together!”
“Don’t just hand out good person cards!” the two complained in unison.
…
After asking a passerby for directions.
The nearest arena is to the east; it takes about 15 minutes to walk there, then go around three streets to see it.
“Who’s going up next?” Zane asked.
“Let Starry go.” Fenghua said, “Her attack speed is the highest; even when facing a boss, she has a fighting chance. Plus, we can support from below.”
That’s right, although they had seen quite a few Gold Grade bosses take the stage earlier, they were ultimately the minority.
Most monsters’ strength hovered around Silver.
However, with Starry’s vampiric ability, defeating enemies could fully sustain the fight.
After defeating three enemies, they would let Fenghua and themselves take turns entering to buy time, and once it’s close enough, they’d take a dive.
This way, they would meet the condition of surviving for an hour and defeating five enemies, achieving a plan that would be deemed perfect.
