As he heard the shocked gasps behind him, Mike subconsciously looked back. However, he found that he could not see past anything apart from the sea of humans in front of him.

What Mike could not see was the astonished face that was on Timus. Timus had clearly hit Arthas just now. However, the attack felt as though he had just hit a phantom. This was something that Timus had never expected.

Right as that happened, Arthas returned the attack with a sinister smile on his face. Then, he waved the giant scythe in his hand with all his might and slashed at Timus.

Timus’s eyes focused on his movements and he immediately reacted. He raised the Greatsword of Meredith in his hand and slashed at the giant black scythe from the bottom up.

At this moment, everyone held their breath and looked at the two fighters. However, something strange happened. When the Greatsword of Meredith and the black scythe almost came into contact, everyone prepared for the collision to cause a great shockwave. However, with great anticipation, the moment fell short as both the weapons seemed to have passed through each other.

The Greatsword of Meredith swung in the air once. Timus was slightly stunned as his mind went completely blank.

What just happened?

How did this happen?!

While Timus was still in a daze, the giant black scythe did not stop and locked on to Timus. Right as the blade of the giant black scythe was about to hit Timus, he recovered from the shock and tried his best to move his body to dodge the attack.

Due to the swift movements from the scythe, Timus had been completely unprepared for the attack. He relied on his battle experience and reflexes to dodge this attack, but he was still one step too slow.

The crowd once again cried out in surprise.

Timus’s body and head had already moved to the side as fast as possible, but the scythe still managed to get a hit on Timus’s shoulder.

The sound of the blade cutting through the skin that embedded in the bone could be clearly heard by the soldiers. Red blood immediately gushed out of the wound, dripping past his elbow.

Even if the pain was intense, Timus did not make a sound. He gritted his teeth and swung the Greatsword of Meredith in his hand again, sweeping it from right to left. His attack was extremely fierce. Timus did not hold back at all and used all of his strength.

Even the soldiers 100 meters away could feel how powerful his attacks were from afar.

However, an incredibly strange thing happened again. The Greatsword of Meredith once again passed through Arthas’s body without any hesitation. It was as if Arthas did not exist in this world!

Timus’s eyes widened in exasperation. He did not understand why this had happened. He had clearly hit Arthas, but all it did was pass through his opponent’s body. Moreover, his opponent’s hit managed to wound him!

Why was this?

This baffled Timus to no end, but Arthas did not intend to give any explanation. He immediately raised his hand and pulled the black scythe out of Timus’s shoulder.

This action caused a lot of blood to rush out from Timus’s body, and his arm dyed red from his blood immediately.

However, Timus did not have the extra energy and time to deal with this wound, because Arthas had already planned his next attack!

Arthas held on to the black book in his left hand and the scythe in his right. His scythe slashed horizontally at Timus with great force.
