Solitary Snow, what a nice name.
Ding Dong…
An eye-catching new match pairing was shown on the giant monitor.
Einherjar Wannabe (TPA) versus Solitary Snow (IPA)
Venue: The 59th Arena, the match starts in 10 minutes, open for betting.
Betting was crucial to IPA players, they were able to trade points or golds for better equipment or enhance their Sol value; however, it was useless for TPA players. Nevertheless, as a game company, DREAM Corporation emphasized on financial profit, and IPA players were obviously their biggest source of income.
What happened to his pick?
TPA players were startled, was Einherjar Wannabe out of his mind? Why would he pick a worthless piece of IPA trash who had no Soul Energy in reality?
Was he afraid?
It caused another uproar on the TPA forum, Einherjar Wannabe didn’t pick anyone from the TPA real-deals but chose an IPA weakling instead. The players were insulted and felt like they’ve wasted their time, spending a whole day to wait for this nonsense.
Skyscraper felt strange as he saw the words on the monitor. In fact, he was looking forward to today’s match, even though Einherjar Wannabe might not pick him from the crowd. Still, he had hoped to see an interesting fight, yet he had no idea why Einherjar Wannabe would pick a futile IPA player.
Skyscraper then decided to go through Solitary Snow’s player profile and was shocked by what he had seen.
That person was wearing the Golden Marksman, a Dream-rank Level 4 METAL Suit… an ultimate god-like equipment! No wonder Solitary Snow had a 100% winning rate. Every Dream-rank METAL Suit came with “glitchy” abilities unless the opponent was strong or equipped with the METAL Suit that counters it, or else no one wouldn’t have stood a chance against it. Moreover, the guy had to be overflowed with high amount of Soul Energy since he was able to equip a Level 4 METAL suit… Soon, Skyscraper and the other fighters came to realize that Einherjar Wannabe’s decision to “update” his winning record had become a suicidal act! What on earth was he thinking?
Luv Ma unconsciously gave a weird smile when he saw the data on his screen. Poor Miao Xiu had left, yet Luv Ma didn’t plan to call him back, as he was too eager to see how Einherjar Wannabe would handle the invincible Dream-rank METAL Suit!
Normally, TPA players would never accept the challenge if they knew their opponent had Dream-rank Suits because the fight would be meaningless.
Yet Einherjar Wannabe’s decision to challenge Solitary Snow had caused a ruckus amongst IPA community. No one had predicted that this could happen, it was definitely a superb moment for the IPA players, not only had Einherjar Wannabe chose to fight someone from the IPA but also he chose to fight Solitary Snow — the one who was ranked number 9 amongst 4th Class IPA fighters!
Solitary Snow might be too unrealistic in the eyes of TPA community and also in reality, but the person was a legend to IPA players; unlike Wang Ben’s METAL Suit, the Golden Marksman was THE super armor containing “glitchy” abilities.
“Those who know nothing fear nothing,” that summarized Einherjar Wannabe’s decision to fight against Solitary Snow.
Most of the IPA players were betting on Solitary Snow because the game of PA wasn’t about how tough you were in reality; in the world of PA, you reap what you sowed. Einherjar Wannabe might have the Soul energy of a 4th Class fighter, but if he was up against the Bug version of a 4th Class fighter, the chance of winning was very slim.
It felt different than choosing a TPA player as the opponent.
