Chapter 152 (2/2)
“Got it!”
But before Purple Marquis could finish his sentence, Indigo Collar surprised everyone and activated Charge . His target was none other than Purple Marquis himself!
I felt my heart sink inside my chest . Oh no, this is going to be bad . . .
As I thought, Indigo Collar immediately swung his blade twice at Purple Marquis the moment the latter got stunned . It was Blaze and Desperate Gambit!
1245!
1310!
Holy s.h.i.+t! He actually managed to one-shot Purple Marquis?
I had to keep my surprise from showing on my face . Indigo Collar might only be Level 62, but thus far he had proven himself to be a super black horse . It was no coincidence that he was able to kill Purple Marquis in a single exchange . Even if he hadn’t received the two buffs, Purple Marquis would have been one or two hits away from death anyway!
A player’s core strength was defined by several factors like equipment, pet, skills and so on . Just the fact that Indigo Collar had Desperate Gambit deserved my respect already!
But the worst had yet to come . The enemy mage had somehow made his way to the borderline before casting an Ice Dragon Howl at Clear Perfume . It was a direct hit!
Thud thud thud . . .
Clear Perfume fired a Volley and chased the mage away, but her HP was almost empty!

Peach Garden’s archer, Wheel Shadow, acted at the perfect moment and fired a volley of arrows into Snowy Cathaya’s formation . One of the shots unfortunately hit Clear Perfume and killed her there and then!
Swhoos.h.!.+
It still wasn’t the end of Snowy Cathaya’s misery . Faint red light flashed next to Shadow Chanel, and the a.s.sa.s.sin, Moon Scar, appeared and thrust his dagger forward three times in a row!
The first two attacks, Cold Blade and one basic attack tore apart Shadow Chanel’s Magic s.h.i.+eld, and the third and final strike, Eviscerate, hit Shadow Chanel directly . His movement was smooth like water .
MISS!
MISS!
1092!
An a.s.sa.s.sin was the bane of any cla.s.s who donned cloth armor, not to mention that Eviscerate ignored 25% of the enemy’s Defense . Shadow Chanel was only able to cast one Ice Dragon Howl before she was one-shot by Moon Scar .
Crack!
Meanwhile, Lin Yixin finally managed to kill a double-buffed Indigo Collar with Moon Gaze and Extreme Break, but it was hardly enough to turn the tide of battle around . After all, she was the only one still alive in her team!
Meanwhile, Peach Garden still had Moon Scar, Wheel Shadow and Painted Skin . They were all third-promotion players as well .
“Oh no, Beauty Lin is going to lose…” Du Thirteen clenched his fists .
I gritted my own teeth and said, “Not yet . There’s still hope…”
On the stage, Lin Yixin hadn’t given up either . She charged Wheel Shadow as the archer backed away trying to kite her . Behind her, the a.s.sa.s.sin followed her like a shadow, searching for an opportunity to end her life .
Suddenly, Lin Yixin turned around and killed Moon Scar in one strike . However, she also took a shot from Wheel Shadow, and worse, Painted Skin’s Ice Dragon Howl was coming for her!
Roar!
The roar seemed to affect Lin Yixin, slowing her down just enough for her to get hit even though she was already mid-dodge . The spell immediately deleted a huge chunk of her HP!
“Uuuu…”
Lin Yixin groaned unhappily at her failed dodge before lifting the Snow Shadow Sword and charging toward Painted Skin again, but the d.a.m.ned mage was uncannily quick . He actually started kiting her back and forth like he was an archer, toying with her as he worked together with Wheel Shadow to chip away at her HP!
I clenched my fists together and uttered, “f.u.c.k!”
Beiming Xue also opened her eyes wide . “d.a.m.n those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, how dare they fool around with Beauty Lin like this…”
Lin Yixin’s shoulder had at least seven arrows stuck to it . Her snow white cloak was completely drenched in blood . She still hadn’t given up on chasing down her opponent, but she was always one hair away from hitting them . In the end, she was killed by a powerful Devil Piercing Arrow .
I actually felt a twinge of pain in my heart when Lin Yixin collapsed helplessly to the limestone floor .
0:1!
The first round went to Peach Garden .
Beside me, Gui Guzi commented with a frown on his face, “Why do I feel like Lin Yixin isn’t herself today? She’s normally sharper than this…”
I didn’t say anything .
The second match was practically a copy of the first . The experts of Peach Garden weren’t inferior to Snowy Cathaya in the first place, and Lin Yixin herself looked completely out of form today . She was always just one millimeter away from hitting her opponent . In the end, Peach Garden pulled an upset and defeated Snowy Cathaya 2:0!
… . . .
Swhoos.h.!.+
Lin Yixin was the last one to be teleported out of the battlefield . She looked incredibly tired .
I walked up to meet her, and she looked up and gave me a smile . It made me hurt on the inside . I had never seen her looking this forlorn since I knew her .
“are you okay, Yiyi?” I asked softly .
“Mn . I’m fine…” Lin Yixin shook her head slightly before sitting on the steps next to her . Setting the Snow Shadow Sword beside her, she said, “Lu Chen, first place has nothing to do with Snowy Cathaya now… I was going to throw the final and give up the Hero’s Token to you, but I guess I lost my chance to show off…”
Touched, I replied, “You didn’t have to . We will claim the Hero’s Token with our own hands . You don’t have to throw anything . ”
Lin Yixin raised her eyebrows and regained some of her usual vigor . She smiled . “Hah, don’t pretend you weren’t afraid of me kicking your a.s.s . And don’t you get chauvinistic with me, hmph . If I wasn’t out of form today, there was a chance Snowy Cathaya could’ve beaten Peach Garden… Seriously though, they’re very good . Their overall strength is even better than the G.o.ds of Destruction team's . Be careful . If you lose the final, b.l.o.o.d.y Mercenaries are sure to lose face…”
I nodded . “Don’t worry, we will win for sure!”
“Mn . Now go…”
I turned away and left Lin Yixin . If I kept the conversation going any longer, Purple Marquis and Zi Chuanyu were sure to chase me away, and that was if Murong Mingyue didn’t come over herself and take a bite at me .
