Chapter 91 - Even Admitting Defeat Was A Competition?
n
n
nAs the heatwave swept across the entire arena again, everyone was stunned.
nWhat happened?
nDidn't Silver Shield clearly have the upper hand just now?
nEveryone was already cheering for him.
nHow could there be such a huge reversal in just one second?
nHow was God Slayer able to launch the same powerful attack again?
nHow long had it been?
nFive seconds?
nFour seconds?
nHow could such a powerful attack have such a short cooldown time?
nObviously, many people were shocked by Mike's methods.
nThis was no longer a question of strength.
nNo one could beat him.
nNo, let alone people.
nNo boss or NPC could beat him.
nFor new players, their impression of bosses and NPCs was very limited.
nThey did not know how strong a truly powerful boss or NPC was.
nIf they knew...
nThey would be even more certain that no NPC or boss could defeat Mike...
nWell, at least Mike knew this very well.
nUnless the opponent was a god, Mike could basically pass through Second World unhindered.
nNot to mention killing a level 25 knight player.
nMike turned around and left the stage.
nThe next moment, he was teleported to the king's side.
nThe king's eyes were filled with fear, and the other spectators could not help but look in his direction.
nNo one cared about the next match.
n..
nAt the church's resurrection point.
nSilver Shield walked out and looked at the chilly street. He could not help but sigh.
nSigh, God Slayer was too strong.
nHe simply could not understand how he did it.
nIt was impossible to win against such an opponent, right?
nThinking of this, Silver Shield could not help but comforted himself.
nAt least the third or fourth place would be rewarded with gold coins.
nAt least he gained some profit.
nAs long as he had his shield, it should not be a problem for him to snatch the third place after defeating the loser in the next round.
nHowever, in the next moment, he suddenly realized something off.
nWhy did he feel as if his left hand was a little... empty?
nHe looked down and was stunned.
n'Where's my shield?
n'Dying in the arena should not drop any equipment right?'
nHis heart almost stopped beating. He quickly opened his backpack.
nSeeing his beloved shield lying quietly in his backpack, Silver Shield let out a sigh of relief.
nThis was his most important treasure. If it really dropped, he might as well not live anymore.
nHe could just jump off the building.
nHowever, just as he was about to take out the shield and equip it on his left hand, a surprising scene appeared.
nYour level is not high enough to use this equipment.
nSilver Shield was slightly stunned.
n'Isn't this shield's level requirement level 25?
n'Didn't I just use it?
n'Why can't I use it all of a sudden?'
nHe subconsciously looked at his level, and then he was completely stunned.
n'How the hell did I become level 24?!
n'We can die in the arena without losing any experience, right?'
nMoreover, even if he did lose experience, he should not have directly dropped to level 24.
nAfter all, he only had about 20% of his experience bar left from leveling up. Even if he lost experience, he should still have 70% left!
nHe looked at his own experience bar and was even more surprised.
nLevel 24.
nThere was still 20% left to level 25.
nAfter he saw his experience bar, Silver Shield completely collapsed.
nIt was not that he had lost 10% of his experience.
nHe had actually lost 100% of his experience!
nHe really went from level 25 80% of his experience to level 24 80% of his experience!
n
"What the hell happened!!!
"
nSilver Shield hugged his head with both hands, unable to accept this reality.
nIf he dropped back to level 24, he would not be able to equip his shield.
nIn other words, his greatest reliance was no longer useful.
nThen, what should he do in the following battle?
nWas he confident that he could defeat his opponent?
nWhy did he suddenly drop in level?
nHe thought about it for a long time but could not come to a conclusion. In the end, he took a look at the battle record and found a clue.
nYou have been killed by player God Slayer. There is no loss if you die in the arena.
nAffected by Curse Power, your level has decreased by 1 level.
n
"Curse Power?
"
nLooking at the two system messages, Silver Shield regained his composure.
nFrom the first message, he could see that the rules had not changed, and nothing strange had happened.
nIt seemed that the cause of his losses was due to this Curse Power.
nAs for where this Curse Power came from...
nSilver Shield's face revealed a hint of fear.
nA bold guess emerged in his heart.
nCould it be... God Slayer?
nThe more Silver Shield thought about it, the more he felt that this was precisely the case.
nOther than it being related to God Slayer, he could not think of any other answer.
nIf it was the arena's problem, this matter would have long spread throughout the new region.
nAfter all, many players had just been killed in the arena.
nHe did not expect God Slayer to actually have Curse Power, a skill that could force people to drop in levels.
nThis was simply a huge piece of news!
nSilver Shield immediately opened the forum and began to type out a post.
nHe had to let everyone know about this!
nAs for the following competition...
nSilver Shield was already too lazy to participate.
nAnyway, he would most likely not be able to get third place. Even if he directly forfeited, he could still get the fourth place reward.
nThe most important thing now was to post quickly.
nSilver Shield, who was standing on the street, immediately got busy.
n..
nOn the battle stage.
nTwo players were currently fighting back and forth.
nOne of them was a fighter whose ID was Explosive Wave Fist.
nAs for the other player, it was Sky Splitting Sword.
nThat was right, it was the player who made a bet with Mike and chose to go offline after he lost.
nAlthough his credibility was a problem, his strength was decent.
nAt least he could stand out among the ordinary players.
nOtherwise, he would not have received the scholarship from the school.
nAt this moment, the battle was coming to an end.
nThe two of them were very nervous.
nBoth of them did not want to make a mistake at such a crucial moment.
nAfter all, this battle could be considered as the battle that decided the second place winner.
nEven if one could not obtain a weapon bestowed by the king, one could at least obtain a skill book.
nCompared to a skill book, the gold reward was much worse.
nTherefore, they had to win!
nThe two of them fought fiercely and switched between offense and defense.
nIn the end, Sky Splitting Sword obtained the victory.
nIt was clearly a very exciting battle, but the audience was not very interested.
nAfter witnessing God Slayer's overwhelming power, it was hard for them to be interested in such an ordinary battle.
nMany people were just interested to see how God Slayer could instantly kill his opponent and win the championship.
nWho would care about the others?
nAfter the battle ended, Sky Splitting Sword was teleported out of the arena.
nThe next second, he was teleported back again.
nOpposite him was a yawning God Slayer.
nHe had waited too long for this stupid skill book and was on the verge of falling asleep.
nFortunately, it was the finals now.
nAs long as he raised his hand and surrendered, the skill book would be his.
nWith this thought in mind, Mike revealed a confident smile.
nJust as he was about to raise his hand, he heard Sky Splitting Sword say,
n
"I give up!
"
nMike was slightly taken aback.
n'What the f*ck?'
n
