Chapter 268 Warm-up Match 7 (2/2)

”This…”

As they heard Rhode's question, they were surprised. From the dialogue between Nancy and Lize, they obviously knew each other. This was the first time the Starlight mercenaries had seen Nancy, so they were not clear about the situation.

Rhode naturally also didn't know about it. However, seeing the way Lize fought her, she was using one of the meanest, most shameless, and most hated method of 'treating foes as friends'. The regular 'treating foes as friends' method was to disrupt the opponent's rhythm and use spirit power to give the killing blow. But this non-mainstream method was used without having to exert any physical strength because the damage given was almost zero. This kind of method was used to force the opponent to admit defeat. In the past, a player called 'Big Bubble Gum' particularly liked to use this method—she was the one who invented the Cleric PK method. Many people underestimated her, and in the end, she used this method to torture those people for 30 minutes to one hour to make them admit defeat themselves after experiencing a mental breakdown. Although there had been no special changes in her expression, Rhode was clear about this. He was judging her intention based on the skills she used. Lize had been using this method constantly, and it was enough to explain the situation. She didn't intend to attack the opponent directly as Marlene did. Instead, she used the most annoying, most cruel method, which took up a lot of time. This meant that there was a grudge between Lize and that woman, or else, based on Lize's character, she wouldn't do something like this.

Did that guy teach her something bad in the Mirage?

Rhode thought for a while and soon gave up that thought. The image in the Mirage had no self-awareness and no ability to speak. Even if he wanted to teach something bad, he was still unable to do so. It was just that…

Thinking until here, Rhode shrugged his shoulders. He turned his head once again to look at the ring.

Why do women make things difficult for other women?

Lize was, of course, unable to hear Rhode's thought. She carefully kept her distance from Nancy and constantly used her spirit power to interrupt Nancy's rhythm. As Rhode had guessed, she hated this woman. When she had just arrived at Deep Stone City, she had been unfamiliar with the place and the people there. When she felt at loss, Nancy appeared and pretended to introduce a mercenary group to her, but she actually meant to sell her to a merchant. At that time, that feeling really made her felt an abnormal fear. If her former leader didn't pass by and saved her, she would have become a merchant's concubine by now.

Since then, Lize had been hoping to take a revenge, but as a Cleric with no fighting ability, Lize didn't want get everyone involved just because of her personal matter. Moreover, Nancy was an important member of a mercenary group, which was why she had been patiently waiting. Whenever Nancy met her, she always ridiculed her with a mocking tone, which made her very angry. Now that Nancy was in the ring, Lize soon realized that it was a good chance to avenge her grudge.

Because of that, Lize chose to fight with this method.

In fact, it also seemed to be effective.

In the constant battle, Nancy had completely fallen under Lize's control. She was no longer the old Lize. Not only did she learn how to use the buff, now she could even use it to bind and suppress the opponent. With her new knowledge, she was able to firmly suppress Nancy below her. Though Nancy, who was waving her lance around, looked aggressive, her movements were a complete mess as she fell to the ground and lost her balance. She was yelling in anger like a crazy woman, but it wasn't like she had a lion's roar skill. So yelling around was basically useless since it wouldn't give Lize any damage.

At this moment, the other mercenaries also finally realized that something was wrong. No matter how stupid Nancy was, there was no way that she would make mistakes one after another.

She didn't come here just to be a laughingstock, right?

That was obviously impossible. Then the reason she fell into that state was because of that Cleric?

Could a Cleric even do something like that?

The mercenaries had begun to talk about it. At this time, Lize finally lifted her head and quietly looking at Nancy.

”I'll give you a chance to concede defeat, Nancy…”

”You b*tch, you want me to concede?” ”

Nancy coldly snorted. She was already feeling really angry, but after hearing Lize's words, she couldn't hold it anymore.

”Tch! Who do you think you are? You're just a spoiled goods! Want me to give up? Go die first!”

Followed along with this remarks, Nancy's body suddenly emitted a light. Then, she shouted while rushing forward with her lance. The sharp tip heavily hit Lize's Guardian Shield at full speed. Accompanied by the crisp sound, the shield, which had suffered a strong attack, suddenly shattered. The huge impact made Lize slightly stagger, while Nancy clenched her lance and rushed straight forward.

”Be careful!!”

Seeing this scene, a lot of people were surprised and shouted. However, Lize's expression was calm and she didn't seem to be surprised by the incoming attack. She only stretched her right hand and aimed to the front.

A dazzling light suddenly burst out.

Countless golden beams came out of her fingers and whistled forward.
