Chapter 98: Absolute Zero (1/2)
”Who is the boss?” Zerze asked once he stepped into the cave.
His hand held the near-dead brother who was giggling as the job was done! This dude's laughter quickly halted after he barreled into the wall due to Zerze's high strength!
He turned into a thousand red particles, then died.
Zerze knew that he was being lured, but that didn't stop him from entering this place. If before he would consider some thoughts, he no longer cared about others in the Regional Tournament.
It was because the organizers had already contacted him and his system had a counter for 'Invader's Deaths'
This counter was always going on, so Michu and others were doing their job.
And Zerze believed in himself, his confidence and strength originating from the powerful and unique title!
It was just a mere title, but he had been blessed with so many skills already.
Was it turned into the class, what kind of grade would he get? Surely, Mythic was a possibility!
Zerze's voice was deemed arrogant by Pyrobro!
He appeared out of the shadows in his outfit and stats exposed!
”Pyrobro?” Zerze narrowed his eyes and rummaged through his thoughts.
There was a small incident with Pyrobro who ventured into the depths of unique flame quests, but the information was vague and Zerze couldn't pay much attention to people from other regions.
Many monsters dwelled in his region too!
Some were ruthless... Some had exuberant and positive vibes around them!
”Seems like you have heard about me. I didn't expect that since I am not so flashy, but I have also participated in our regional tournament and ranked high.” Pyrobro explained.
But Zerze didn't even think of regional tournaments, so his face remained expressionless with eyes shining blue.
This silence was taken as yes by Pyrobro!
He dilated his red eyes and said, ”Excalibur is one of the weapons we need, but I couldn't care less about this weapon! A weapon with a sealed ego is nothing, but a weapon! My brothers' cries and tears are what funnels my flames right now!”
Pyrobro's spear crazed with flames! The flames spread across his shaft while the other hand grasped a red crystal ball. This ball increased his flames output by at least a hundred times as the cave trembled in cries too!
Donned in his flame armor from top to bottom except for his head, Pyrobro was like a reincarnation of a sun warrior!
Zerze didn't stay idle!
He dropped his spear from the Regional Tournament, then his main weapon, The Ice Spear appeared out of his inventory!
A silent and cold whisper spread across the cave to appease the cries brought up by the flames.
In an instant, the flames' howls diminished by half.
And Zerze's equipment began to appear across his body too.
The long blue robes fell onto the ground. He clenched his hands a few times while checking his black gloves while boots and other accessories equipped themselves on him! As the fur from his robe scratched his neck, Zerze closed his eyes in content.
”Let's get over it quickly. I still have some points to gather,” Zerze clenched his spear, then rushed forth!
Pyrobro belatedly reacted, then mimicked the rush! Their steps brought their element with each other, then these two clashed in advanced and far from newbie battle!
Loud bangs and tremors conjured white steam around them as two elements danced and clashed against each other!
It was the battle of proper spearmanship with a thrilling fantasy tinge, then two warriors separated and let the fantasy prevail!
”Ice Shards.”
”Fire Spears.”
Two long-distance techniques swept through the cave! Precisely aimed at each other, these two drew flashy trails mid-air, then erupted in the middle, bringing another explosion that shook the cave!
From this explosion, Zerze was the first one to emerge!
His spear drew a few more trails that turned into weapons to assist his assault!
Pyrobro wasn't alone either. He immediately summoned more of his flame spears as if the cooldown meant nothing to him!
