Chapter 90 - The Confident Silver Shield, Cheers In The Aren
n

nMike himself did not know about this.
nOnly the player who had forfeited and the player who had been killed by Mike in the previous round knew about it.
nUnder normal circumstances, death would only result in a loss of 10% of EXP.
nMoreover, death in the arena should not lead to the loss of EXP at all.
nHowever, he had lost EXP.
nFurthermore, he decreased by one level.
nJust this reason was enough to make him forfeit.
nHe knew that he could not win, but if he died, he would lose one level. Who would want to bear such a loss?
nThe player left the arena dejectedly and heaved a sigh of relief.
nMike, on the other hand, was not affected.
nHe felt that it was normal for anyone to forfeit.
nThe next moment, Mike was teleported back to the special seats to continue watching the match.
n
"It seems that your opponent is afraid.
"
nThe king commented with a hint of disdain in his tone.
nIn his opinion, even if it was a situation where he was bound to lose, since there was no loss, he should still give it a try.
nMike, on the other hand, answered very calmly,
n
"I can be considered somewhat famous among the adventurers.
"
nThe king did not speak, his gaze remained on the arena.
nHowever, he could understand some things from this sentence.
nIt seemed that all the adventurers knew what he had done.
nThe king narrowed his eyes as if he had a plan in mind.
nMeanwhile, Mike continued to eat grapes leisurely.
nThe second round of the competition soon ended.
nIt only took 20 minutes.
nOnly 54 people were left from the original 216 people.
nIt seemed that Mike's opponent's behavior in the second round had affected everyone.
nIn the next few rounds, Mike's opponents all forfeited.
nMike himself was also willing to see this.
nHe did not want to waste time teleporting to and fro the stage.
nSince he was going to win anyway, it would be better to win effortlessly.
nSoon, there were only four contestants left.
nEach match was extended to 30 minutes.
nAfter all, including the finals, there were only three matches left.
nIt could be said that these three matches would be the three most valuable matches in this tournament.
nThe longer the time, the more strategies the participants could consider.
nThis could also increase the enjoyment of the spectators.
nMike was drawn to be in the first round of the competition.
nAfter being teleported to the stage, Mike did not even take out his weapon.
nAfter all, the opponent would most likely forfeit.
nHowever, this time, it was not like before.
nMike's opponent this time was a knight.
nHis ID was Silver Shield.
nUnlike the other players, Silver Shield did not surrender.
nHe looked at Mike up and down, and his eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
nObviously, he wanted to fight.
nMike naturally saw it and immediately took out his weapon.
nSimilarly, Mike still chose the staff form.
nIn a place like the arena, the Staff of Meredith was definitely the best choice.
nBecause the small fireballs in the staff form and the wind blow could create an area of effect attack.
nLooking at the range of the fireballs that Mike fired...
nNot to mention this stage.
nEven this arena could be completely covered.
nIn other words, the opponent had no room for dodging.
nMike had previously used this move.
nSo logically speaking, there was no reason for this knight called Silver Shield to now know of his move.
nMoreover, the reason why he had not surrendered was probably because he had some kind of skill that could counter this move.
nFor example, invincibility or a shield that resisted spells.
nIn truth, that was indeed the case.
nSilver Shield only dared to challenge Mike because he had a skill that resisted spells.
nIn his opinion, Mike only had a skill with a large area of effect and high damage.
nThis kind of ridiculous skill usually had a long cooldown.
nAfter using it once, it would take a long time to cast it again.
nMoreover, the shield in his hand was not an ordinary one.
nIt was a purple excellent quality shield.
nIt had a special skill.
nMagic Shield: creates a magic shield that can block the next magic attack. Lasts for 3 seconds. Cooldown time: 60 seconds.
nThis was what he relied on!
nAs long as he had this shield, he would definitely win.
nThe cooldown time of God Slayer's wide-range magic attack was definitely more than 1 minute.
nNo, it might even be more than 10 minutes!
nAs long as he activated Magic Shield the moment God Slayer cast his skill, and then take this opportunity to close the distance to fight in close combat, victory would be his!
nThinking of this, Silver Shield revealed a confident smile.
nAt this moment, the referee, who was the deputy commander of the Royal Guards, Lucious, saw that Silver Shield did not intend to surrender and immediately revealed an unhappy look.
n'You adventurers are not afraid of death, but please don't harm me, okay?
n'If I'm not careful, I might very well die on the spot!
nAlthough he was a thousand times unwilling, the king was still watching the match.
nIf he retreated, he might not be able to keep his position as the deputy commander.
nHe had no choice but to bite the bullet and act as the referee.
nHe immediately retreated to the edge of the arena and used the tip of his feet to step on the arena to maintain his posture. His heels were directly suspended outside the arena.
nThe moment he shouted
"Let the match begin
", he would immediately retreat to avoid being affected by Mike's terrifying move.
nAfter making all the necessary preparations, the deputy commander of the Royal Guards, Lucious, took a deep breath, his body tensed up as he shouted,
n
"Let the match begin!
"
nAs soon as those words left his mouth, he immediately retreated.
nSure enough, the next moment, a huge and hot wave of heat assaulted his face.
nThe moment he announced the start of the match, Mike instantly released a small fireball.
nLooking at the raging flames on the arena, Lucious had no doubt that if he was even 0.1 seconds slower, he would probably be cooked by the flames.
nAt least 90% cooked.
n..
nAt this moment, everyone in the arena was fully focused on the situation on the stage. They did not even dare to blink their eyes, afraid that they would miss this scene.
nThe flames gradually dissipated.
nWhen everyone thought that Silver Shield should have been killed by the move.
nA shocking scene appeared.
nSilver Shield was unharmed!
nMoreover, he was running madly toward God Slayer!
nIn an instant, the entire arena was boiling!
nEveryone was cheering excitedly for Silver Shield.
nPeople worshiped the strong, but they liked to see a weak person defeat the strong.
nIn their opinion, Silver Shield was a very weak person.
nHowever, he was about to kill God Slayer and become a real
"god slayer
".
nSilver Shield looked at God Slayer who was getting closer and closer to him, and could not help but laughed wildly,
n
"You can't use that attack just now, right? I'm sorry, God Slayer!
"
nThough in the next moment, the
"god
" was angered.
nMike smiled slightly, raised the Staff of Meredith in his hand, and shot out a fireball.
nThe heat swept through the crowd again.
nThe cheering stopped abruptly.
n
