Chapter 392: Assassination, Descends! (1/2)
All noise gradually faded away, the entire arena eventually returned to silence, only heavy breathing echoed.
Due to the score being 2:2, every match thereafter was even more important.
“Compared to the Fallen Shadow Valley before, you look more confident and exudes stronger aura...... Normal tactics should not be a threat to you anymore. Since that’s the case, I have to use my trump cards just like Captain Morgan.”
Just as Leonardo announced the start of the match, such thought flashed across Cuswoth’s mind.
His entire face was suddenly shrouded in black light before anyone realized.
His facial features had all disappeared. The entire face became absolutely black, like a smooth black board, yet boundlessly deep!
It seemed that beyond his face, the internal of his body had become a world of black light!
“What’s the meaning of this?”
“Why did his face become black? Teacher Carter, what arcane skill is this?” Ayrin and Stingham stopped their quarrel and shouted with surprise.
“Face of Darkness! One of the strongest forbidden skills of the Dark Elves. It allows arcane particles to be emitted from the face directly. It also reduces the distance between the Life Gate and body surface, improving casting speed. It’s known as the sure-hit target skill. After casting this forbidden skill, any projectile type arcane skill will become the most accurate arrow and lock on to Rinloran’s position, never missing him! Hence, while both of them have high elf bloodline, Rinloran obtained the inheritance of forest ranger and moonlight swordsman. However, Cuswoth’s true secret should be the inheritance of the eternal night hunter from the dark elves!” Carter quickly explained.
Just as he as explaining, the scene on the stage had changed.
Rinloran vanished, leaving only a few flashes on the stage.
However, immediately afterwards, a black crescent light slashed out from the front of Cuswoth’s body. It seemed to have slashed empty air, but with a flash of black and pale blue light, Rinloran’s body suddenly appeared with a sword blocking the front. His body was pushed back by the strong impact.
“Fear Angel Feast!”
With just a single strike, Cuswoth had gained complete advantage. He had the lead in casting arcane skill, maintaining one step faster than Rinloran.
Countless angel monsters with stinger tails constantly flew out from Rinloran’s surroundings, swarming towards him like an army.
“Forest Goddess: Holy Tree of Protection!”
Rinloran quickly chanted. Countless rays of moonlight grew from the ground.
In a mere moment, countless glowing trees stood on the ground.
The incoming fear angels collided with light trees, becoming balls of grey flame.
Rinloran began scuttering between the light trees. The audience could not even see his figure.
“You have already experienced a complete Lunar Baptism and become able to cast such arcane skills.”
Despite the face remaining as a black board, Cuswoth still expressed his surprise and lamented.
“Have a taste of my Dark Night Sword!”
Cuswoth shook his head. The black light on his face instantly increased in intensity. Black light concentrated into a black pillar and spew out from his face!
Hiss!
Sounds of people drawing their breaths came from the stand.
The vision above the entire arena was suddenly blocked by mysterious darkness.
A black longsword peeked out from the void.
Shing!
The black materialized sword also accurately locked on to Rinloran’s position and used unimaginable acceleration to slash at Rinloran as if it was teleporting!
“What speed!” Ayrin could not clearly see the sword flash of that black sword. He just felt that it was even faster than Rinloran’s Moonlight Erosion!
Clang!
A lightning sword flash suddenly hit the black sword flash.
Cuswoth was immediately filled with astonishment.
The Dark Night Judgement of the Dark Night Sword was at a speed of the sudden nightfall. It was absolutely faster than Moonlight Erosion. He believed that Rinloran would never be able to block it!
However, the sword on Rinloran’s left hand properly blocked it at that moment.
Shing!
Just as Cuswoth was feeling astonished, a sharp sword flash had already arrived before him.
“What’s this sword technique!?”
“What sword technique was amalgamated into the Moonlight Sword!?”
Cuswoth immediately reacted and black light surged before him.
Psst!
However, just as his body was flung back, a burst of blood came from his chest.
A cross-shape sword scar was carved on his chest, with moonlight faintly glowing.
It was also a target skill by Moonlight Swordsman. Next, Rinloran’s sword charge would be even faster!
“Darkness Goddess Protection!”
Cuswoth immediately disappeared in a ball of darkness.
Rinloran’s two sword flashes cut through the darkness, but Cuswoth appeared more than twenty meters away. At the same time, the sword scars on his chest was shrouded in darkness. The pale moonlight could not pass through.
“You indeed have great potential. Even at our age, we can only do so much. It’s a pity that you are the enemy of House Baratheon...... So, your time is almost up......”
During the duel which could not be seen and yet so breathtaking, the blue-robed arcane master on the stand smirked in his mind. Then a silent incantation began within him.
Many arcane particles gathered the bizarre arcane energy stored within his body. It appeared like a choir by many tiny people.
However, there was no arcane energy fluctuation visible outside his body.
Even the audience squeezing next to him did not notice any strange phenomenon.
