Chapter 515 (2/2)

I heard a beeping sound which signified my victory. After that, I was awarded points for my win and sent out of the arena. This match hadn't even lasted ten seconds, arena combat really was fast-paced!

I continued searching for new matches. Soon, I heard a familiar beep as a system notice rang in the air.

System Notice: h.e.l.lo, you have been successfully matched with player ”World-destroying Lunatic”! The battle will commence in 5 seconds!

Whoos.h.!.+

When I entered the arena, there was a Level 121 warrior standing in front of me. He was holding an axe and the emblem on his shoulder showed that he was from Vanished G.o.d City. I didn't recognize his guild emblem, it was a guild I had not heard of before. But it didn't matter, all I needed to do was rush forward and finish him. In my eyes, these weren't even opponents, they were simply points.

”Heh, Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand!?” World-destroying Lunatic exclaimed before he let out a roar of laughter. He whirled his battleaxe in the air as he charged toward me. ”Ah, my luck is really good today. To think that I'd meet a pro like you in just my second match! Bring it on! Let me taste the strength of a CGL Hall of Famer!”

Whoos.h.!.+

Dense and violent flames erupted from his battle axe. World-destroying Lunatic was trying to hit me with Blaze.

I gently slipped to the side before I suddenly retreated half a step, casually moving out of the way of his flaming axe. World-destroying Lunatic's eyes widened in shock, but I wasn't going to wait for him to recover. The Heaven-stealing Sword whirled in the air as a universe formation appeared below my feet. A swirling cone of indigo energy erupted from the tip of my sword as I hit him with a Universe Break!

World-destroying Lunatic's shock multiplied, he knew that he couldn't dodge this strike. He hurriedly s.h.i.+fted his axe in front of him as he activated a guard skill to block my attack. It was too bad that it didn't occur to him that this Universe Break could practically ignore its target's defenses. It would deal even more damage if a player chose to guard against it!

Pffft!

17894!

The heavy blow nearly emptied World-destroying Lunatic's health bar in one go. This fellow's Defense wasn't bad at all! He had actually managed to survive my Universe Break! Looks like he wasn't just any simple player!

However, he didn't have enough health to survive my next attack. Even though he tried his best to retreat and down a health potion, I easily caught up to him. His body slowly crumpled to the ground as I dispatched him with a Pardon + basic attack combo!

The battle was over! It was a complete victory!

As I flew out of the arena, I noted that I had gained quite a few points! Alright, it was time to enter the third match!

Whoos.h.!.+

I entered the arena again and saw that my opponent this time was Level 120 mage. He looked like a grizzled uncle and he had evidently finished his fifth cla.s.s promotion as well. The emblems of Wind City and Peach Garden floated above his shoulder. Ever since Indigo Collar had led his guild to Wind City, I hadn't seen another member from Peach Garden until this very moment. To think that I'd meet one of his guild members in a place like this.

The mage grimaced. ”Darn it, how unlucky can I get!? I'm definitely gonna drop points this time…”

A player was unable to hide his ID during arena matches. Furthermore, my ID was always high up in the China server's Heavenly Ranking and the CGL Hall of Fame, so who wouldn't recognize it?

I didn't waste any time talking. I sprinted forward before coming to a sudden halt. My longsword flashed out as a Dragon Slaying Slash erupted from it and heavily exploded against that mage's Magic s.h.i.+eld. The impact was so heavy that it caused the Magic s.h.i.+eld to bend inward and it even left a crack in it.

Thud!

To my surprise, this mage didn't try to use his fifth promotion skill, Galaxy Storm, to attack me. Instead, he simply used a simple Ice Arrow X to attack me. It only dealt 1783 points of damage, a truly pitiful number. However, it has done its job in slowing me down to the point where my opponent could easily lock onto me.

Another Ice Arrow swiftly followed the first. This skill's cooldown was simply far too short! It almost seemed as if he could fire it off continuously.

Furthermore, it was clear that this mage was very skilled at kiting. He strictly maintained a 20-yard distance from me as he continued to casually cast spells at me. Hmmm, if his opponent had been someone else, that person may have very well been kited to death already.

As I stared at my opponent's wide grin, I suddenly let out a bark of laughter as I activated Thunderous Charge without any warning. I shot past the area that the mage was supposed to step into next, instantly messing up his movement patterns. The mage's face turned red as he started waving his staff vigorously. That was the opening sequence for Galaxy Storm! Was this punk finally getting serious!?

I leaned forward as I rushed toward the mage, a frightening power swiftly coalescing around my right arm. A vortex of b.l.o.o.d.y energy was swirling around my fist as I pounded it straight into his Magic s.h.i.+eld—Magic Piercing Punch!

Bang!

MISS!

I didn't do any damage, but I had successfully interrupted his Galaxy Storm. My Heaven-stealing Sword shot toward him before he even had a chance to react. A cone of indigo energy swirled around it as it cut straight through my opponent's Magic s.h.i.+eld!

Pffft!

14902!

Ah, this mage was beyond pitiful. Universe Break and Barrier Break were truly a nightmare for any high-level mages, because they could ignore a large percentage of their Magic s.h.i.+elds' tenacity.

Furthermore, my attack power, which was in a cla.s.s of its own in the China server, could more or less one-shot a mage already. This also meant that no mage could allow me to get close to them during combat because I only needed one chance to hit them with Universe Break and send them to their grave.

Whoos.h.!.+

I noted that I had gained quite a few points as I flew out of the arena. Let's continue! I will enter the Heavenly Ranking of the champion arena with a perfect record!

The next dozen matches were all yawners to me. I faced a bunch of mages, archers, warriors, and a.s.sa.s.sins who hadn't even hit their fifth cla.s.s promotion, so it was a walk in the park. This was especially true when I was matched against an a.s.sa.s.sin or an archer. They were completely helpless in front of my metal armor and Defense, it was simply a tragedy for them.

Those were the rules of the game. If a player didn't have enough Attack to break their opponent's Defense, they would barely even tickle them. Even if they had a high enough Attack, these physical damage cla.s.ses also needed weapons which had a chance to ignore Defense. If both conditions were not fulfilled, they could forget about ever beating a powerful metal armor player.

I had been engaged in fierce fights for over an hour, and I hadn't been defeated yet. A feeling of euphoria surged through my body and I felt like an invincible war G.o.d. But this feeling only lasted until I checked the arena rankings.

What the h.e.l.l! I'm only ranked 1178!? Just how many people were partic.i.p.ating in the champion arena? My undefeated streak hadn't even gotten me in the Top 1000...

Ah, whatever! Let's continue! I'll kill my way into the Top 10 before I stop. I refuse to believe my no-loss streak won't take me straight to the top spot if I keep it up!
