Chapter 1270 - Trying Out
“Tsk, tsk, tsk…”
Once Autumn’s Falling Leaf was knocked off the stage, the spectators became speechless… They appeared as though they were still admiring that alluring moment earlier.
Even though Autumn’s Falling Leaf lost the match, he won in life. The spectators did not feel sorry for his loss and instead, they were incredibly envious.
In fact, many of the male players watching this had wished that this was the way they wanted to die in a game.
Even Autumn’s Falling Leaf’s teammates were incomparably envious of his predicament.
Smooth As Silk even chuckled and asked, “Brother, how is that feeling?”
Autumn’s Falling Leaf replied in a disgruntled manner, “Being knocked out by a lady? What do you think?”
“I’m asking about the earlier incident!” Smooth As Silk even used his hands to act out Yang Nuo’s legs wrapping around Autumn’s Falling Leaf’s neck.
“Scram!” Autumn’s Falling Leaf flew into a rage.
Sacred Mountain and the others even followed up, “Brother, tell us about it…”
“Boss, look at them!” Autumn’s Falling Leaf was helpless so he turned to Boundless Ocean for help.
Boundless Ocean scratched his chin and asked, “How was her strength? Did you see anything you’re not supposed to?”
“I…”
Autumn’s Falling Leaf was utterly speechless.
…
The Quan Zhen Sect had witnessed Yang Nuo’s devastating scissors legs before so they were not as surprised as the others. However, they were completely terrified of how Yang Nuo thrust the two arrows into Autumn’s Falling Leaf’s eyes.
As the saying goes, ‘A woman’s heart is the most poisonous…’ The way Yang Nuo finished off her opponent was truly vicious.
The Quan Zhen Sect started thinking of the times they offended Yang Nuo and their eyes started to hurt.
After a short commotion, it was time for the fourth match.
After careful deliberations, Team A Murder Of Crows chose to send Ming Du.
Even though Ming Du’s moral standing was substandard and was a despicable man, he was still one of the strongest players in the Quan Zhen Sect barring Wang Yu and Yang Nuo.
This was closely related to the nature of his job. Fearless and the others were either engineers or intellects. The best players in the game were usually people who worked their mental capacity on a regular basis.
In real life, Ming Du was a local government bylaw enforcement officer. In terms of his ability to fight, he might be slightly weaker than Wang Yu and co. but in terms of combat experience, he might even be more experienced than Wang Yu.
In a virtual reality game like this, combat experience was undoubtedly a valuable asset. In addition to this kid’s formidable and powerful magic attacks, he wasn’t completely inferior when compared to professional experts. He was one of the few players in the Quan Zhen Sect whose standards could actually match a professional expert.
Ming Du’s opponent was called Innocent Playmate and was also another Magician. However, she was a female player.
Looking at Innocent Playmate, the spectators were slightly at a loss.
This was the first time they had heard of a player called Innocent Playmate in the Kyushu Squad.
In the past, they had a Priest called February Safflower so when did a female player pop out?
“Boss, are you sure she can do the job?” Sacred Mountain seemed slightly doubtful of Boundless Ocean’s decision to send Innocent Playmate.
After all, she was still a newbie who should be trained from the basics. To allow her first appearance to be in the finals might cost them a point if she lost.
“It’s okay…”
Boundless Ocean waved his hands and said, “Anyway, we’ve already won two matches so this point can be a gift to them. I do want to see the hidden capabilities of these fellas.”
One had to admit that Boundless Ocean was indeed a meticulous man. From the start, this fella was already very cautious of Fearless. Ever since he saw that Fearless’ peculiar smile, he felt even more uneasy than before.
Throughout so many years of competition, everyone knew just what type of players the Kyushu Squad had in their ranks.
On the other hand, Team A Murder Of Crows had been either sending out weird but extremely top experts or nonsensical players like Fearless who had no combat ability.
Because of the vast difference in strength, Boundless Ocean still had no clear idea of the true strength of Team A Murder Of Crows.
Therefore, Boundless Ocean decided to send out a newbie who had not appeared before so that she could test the actual strength of the player from Team A Murder Of Crows.
Boundless Ocean did not believe that all the other players besides the three experts were all good-for-nothings.
Innocent Playmate was a new player recruited by Kyushu Squad and her first appearance for Boundless Ocean would be in the finals. Therefore, she was slightly excited.
When Ming Du saw that his opponent was a lady, he teased her, “Little girl, how old are you now? Do you have any boyfriend…”
“No…” Innocent Playmate blushed.
Ming Du pointed at himself and said, “You have one now.”
“F*ck…” Innocent Playmate remained speechless as she held her head down. Evidently, this lady had never seen anyone as shameless as this fella.
The spectators, “…”
They had really never seen anyone as shameless as this person. How dare he flirt with a young girl when he looked so ugly and in front of so many people? Was Team A Murder Of Crows really formed by a bunch of despicable people?
At this moment, a yellow card appeared above Ming Du’s head.
“Team A Murder Of Crows’ Ming Du harassed his opponent with words. Yellow card has been shown as a first warning…”
Ming Du quickly shut his mouth when he saw that.
“Well deserved!”
The spectators felt incredibly satisfied when they saw that.
While everyone was joking, the countdown ended and the match began.
Just when Innocent Playmate took out her staff and was about to execute her skill, Ming Du suddenly pointed towards her back and said, “Eh? What’s that?”
Ming Du’s diversion trick was of the lowest level one could witness in a professional scene like this. Any ordinary professional expert would never fall for it but this was Innocent Playmate’s first time on stage and she was clearly a newbie who had yet to experience the cruelty of the human heart. Once Ming Du did that, she turned around naturally.
“Hehe!”
Ming Du chuckled and raised his staff as a lightning bolt descended towards Innocent Playmate.
While Innocent Playmate might not be experienced, the fact that she was recruited into such a top team meant that she must have exceptional skills.
If it was any other player, the match would have ended after being ambushed by Ming Du in this manner.
However, Innocent Playmate did not even hesitate as she moved to the side the moment she heard the release of thunder.
“Boom!”
Ming Du’s lightning bolt scraped past her.
Innocent Playmate’s face turned red as she realised that she was tricked by Ming Du. She swung her staff and a massive fan of flame was swept towards Ming Du.
Raging Flames!
A rare fire-type magic had incredible damage output as well as speed. The most troublesome part was that this was an AOE magic and the only way to dodge this was to retreat. However, a Magician never had the speed to match the speed of a skill like this.
The two of them were mere metres apart and in a blink of an eye, the flames were already in front of Ming Du.
Just when Ming Du was about to be engulfed by the flames, Ming Du suddenly jumped backwards and upwards with his staff.
“Honglong…”
A loud sound was heard and the ground beneath Ming Du trembled. At the same time, a wall broke through the ground to protect Ming Du.
