Chapter 339: New Set Items (2/2)
This was why Shevchenko won.
After four hours of continued and persistent suicidal and repeated strikes from Shevchenko, Fei clearly saw some anxiousness and impatience in [One Sword]’s eye.
Fei also felt like [One Sword] was bothered by something from the beginning; it felt like [One Sword] couldn’t unleash the full power of his Sword Energies as if he was distracted from this match.
Fei stopped inject energy into the Divy Crystal at this moment, and the images on the white cloth disappeared.
Without having to continue to watch the full match, Fei already had a good grasp of Shevchenko’s strength and characteristics. From looking at the performance of Shevchenko, Fei knew that [One Sword]’s loss wasn’t too tough to take. Shevchenko was clearly a powerful participant; he was a super warrior who hid his strength, and he had his own distinct style.
It was probably Shevchenko’s strange battle style that caused both Fei and Matt Razi to misjudge him.
Shevchenko was the biggest dark horse of the competition!
Of course, Fei also knew that [One Sword] was stronger than Shevchenko in terms of pure strength. But for some reason, [One Sword]’s performance wasn’t stable and wasn’t in the zone. He didn’t use his most powerful strikes, and that was why he lost to Shevchenko.
……
The second match in the afternoon was simple.
[Goddess of Archery] Elena didn’t show her bow. In fact, she didn’t even show up and was automatically disqualified. The king of Chambord moved onto the final.
If this happened to any other participants, all the audience would reject this outcome and ask the officials to look into it. The judges themselves would also investigate to see if cheating was going on.
Since everyone knew that the king of Chambord and [Goddess of Archery] was from the same kingdom and the latter was a subordinate of the former, everything made sense. On the Azeroth Continent, the subordinate couldn’t raise his or her weapon against his or her master. In addition, the power the king of Chambord showed in the match between him and Princess Cindy was far beyond the level of Elena. Even if the match took place, her chance of winning was too low.
The king of Chambord’s strength made others feel devastated.
[One Sword] who people thought could potentially rival against the king of Chambord was unexpectedly taken out by Shevchenko. From the look of it, the king of Chambord was the champion. Unless….. Unless the Luck Prince Shevchenko could surprise everyone again. However, that chance was too low.
[Sky Covering Fist] VS Super Dark Horse Shevchenko.
This was the final of the kingdom ranking matches.
The final was going to take place on No.1 Sword-Testing Stage three days alter.
Shevchenko was severely injured by [One Sword]. It was heard that after [One Sword] fainted on the stage, Shevchenko also fainted after he let go of his huge sword. Shevchenko needed the two days to recover.
But can he fully recover in two days? No one knew.
After all, the war at the south of Zenit was urgent, and the battle between the two Martial Saints was happening soon. Therefore, getting a champion to become the commander of the new legion was more important. Since the situation around Zenit was chaotic, no one knew if more issues were going to come up. Time was the most valuable asset!
From this perspective, Fei actually got the advantage. After all, the king didn’t do anything in the semi-final.
……
The two days flew by.
In these two days, Fei finished all the quests on the Third Map [Kurast Docks]. In Fei’s memory, the last quest [The Guardian] where he had to defeat the boss [Mephisto] was very difficult; this [Mephisto] who was powerful enough had a few strong subordinates!
If Fei was only as powerful as a normal character, it might take a while to complete. However, his strength was now so strong that he tilted the balance of the “game”. Except for [Mephisto] who took a bit longer, Fei and Elena easily conquered the quest.
After [Mephisto] was killed, Fei got the helmet component of [Natalya’s Odium], [Natalya’s Totem].
[Natalya’s Odium] had four components that were all level 7 green Set Items for assassins. The set was powerful and was one of the few Elite Set Items in Diablo World. [Natalya’s Totem] was a great reward, but Fei wasn’t sure when he would be able to collect the other three components which were boots, mail, and scissors.
