Chapter 907: Pink
Translator: alyschu
"That bastard!"
For the second time, Stranger of Three Lifetimes tossed her scepter to the floor so hard that sparks actually came off it. "Bone Wall? A skill that prevents Blink? I can’t believe such a shameless skill exists! Disgusting, disgusting! Soul Battle Robes’ players are so shameless!"
Eyes Like Water consoled her. "Calm down, Momo. We can still win this. If we win the next two solo matches, you’ll be able to take revenge in the final duo match!"
Lasting joined in. "Yes, she’s right. I’m fighting next turn, and I promise I’ll destroy whoever my opponent is for you!"
Stranger of Three Lifetimes nodded. "Then I’m counting on you girls. Please win me the chance to fight again no matter what..."
Her teammates nodded back in unison.
......
The second match was between Lasting and the undead mage of Soul Battle Robes, Ringwraith!
Ringwraith looked like a gloomy and passionless guy, which I supposed fit his class pretty well. He wielded a scepter that was made of dragon bones and murderous energy, and the moment he went on stage wisps of dead energy immediately surrounded his body. It was the Frost Bone Shield, a skill similar to Origin Energy Shield in that it greatly increased Magic Shield’s durability.
Lasting let out a soft snort and summoned her three pets. She then positioned the Ghost Chariot at the forefront so she could order it to attack the mage at first notice. Tamer was hardly the best class for PvP, but Lasting still supported her team all the way to the eighth-finals of the WEL. It was a testament to her strength, a strength that no ordinary mage could withstand.
Unfortunately, Ringwraith was anything but ordinary. The one and only undead mage in the entire competition planted the shaft of his scepter on the ground before growling, "Spirits of hell, heed my call and come out!"
Bang bang bang...
Cracks appeared across the floor, and several undead warriors with rotten flesh and exposed bones climbed out of the hole. They were so ugly that Lasting shivered in fright and exclaimed, "What a disgusting pet!"
Unlike her reaction, Ringwraith licked his lips thirstily and said, "Well, I think they’re pretty cute. Say, little girl, your ghost umbrella pet seems pretty interesting. Is it the legendary Ghost Chariot Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls captured at Bloody Shield Domain? I would like to test out its might if it is."
Lasting said, "Oh, you’ll know it the moment the battle begins!"
The countdown hit zero, and Ringwraith immediately took action. He ordered his undead puppets to attack Lasting while firing several Black Dragon Waves from the distance himself. Lasting was just a tamer, so she was incredibly fragile. Two Black Dragon Waves were all it took to bring her to low health.
"Ah..."
She ran backward to put as much distance as possible between herself and the undead mage. At the same time, she ordered the Crimson-eyed Mantis to attack Ringwraith. The pet ran right up to the undead mage and landed a devastating blow to the waist with its gigantic, scythe-like claws, but the Frost Bone Shield was keeping him alive!
It wasn’t the only pet Lasting had though. The Ghost Chariot spun like a top and rammed its bladed tips into the undead mage’s flank next, executing Ghost Chariot Slash, which bypassed Magic Shield by 50%!
40928!
Ringwraith immediately paled when he realized that he had lost a third of his HP in one hit. He hurriedly waved his scepter and shouted, "Bone Cage!"
Countless bony hands burst out of the ground and surrounded the Ghost Chariot, keeping it from attacking Ringwraith any further. At the same time, he Blinked behind Lasting and landed another Black Dragon Wave on her!
Lasting hurriedly drank a health potion and swung her fiery leather whip at her attacker. It left a bright red mark across Ringwraith’s face.
Unperturbed, the undead mage simply let out a chuckle and raised his palm. "Night of the Undead Dragon!"
It happened in an instant. Countless bone dragons suddenly burst out of the earth Lasting was standing on, cutting her into ribbons with their sharp armor. She died immediately. She was just a tamer, so there was no chance she could’ve survived such a powerful magic spell.
......
"Night of the Undead Dragon?"
Lin Yixin murmured with widened eyes. "Heavens! How is that skill so powerful? And where the hell do these people even come from? Lasting is one of, if not the best, tamer in the entire China right now, and she got instakilled like it was nothing!"
I let out a hum before saying, "Soul Battle Robes is just too strong right now. It’s already too late for Momo..."
Not far away, Stranger of Three Lifetimes shivered a bit in helplessness. "Did we underestimate Soul Battle Robes?"
He Yi replied, "No, you didn’t. No one was expecting Soul Battle Robes to have become this powerful..."
Lasting was killed again even as we spoke to one another. Again, the skill used to kill her was that Night of the Undead Dragon. According to the rules of WEL, any skill with over a 30-minute cooldown exceptionally imbalanced skills such as my Resurrection Art were unusable. However, this Night of the Undead Dragon was just a big AoE spell, so Ringwraith could use it as much as he wanted to.
The score turned to 0:2. At this point, Blazing Hot Lips had completely fallen behind.
During the third match, Song of Cloud and Water lowered her voice and said to her iron knight, "End this with a 2:0 score, God Bone. It is the only score I will accept from you!"
The iron knight gave her a smile and nodded. "Worry not, little lord. I will win this match for Soul Battle Robes!"
Soon, God Bone clashed against Eyes Like Water on the battlefield, and after five minutes of intense battle the iron knight was ultimately able to defeat the warrioress with powerful skills such as Iron Bone Armor and Coldblood Flurry, ending the third match with a 2:0 score, exactly as his guild leader had ordered. Blazing Hot Lips, the strongest guild in Vanished God City right now, was eliminated at the eighth-finals just like that. It was a result no one had expected for sure.
After the overall score turned 3:0, Song of Cloud and Water said to Fei’er, "Sister, can you please tell everyone that we wish to skip the remaining matches? We’ve already won, so..."
Fei’er nodded before turning to Stranger of Three Lifetimes, "Friends from Blazing Hot Lips, Soul Battle Robes wishes to skip the remaining matches since they’ve already won. Thank you for the exciting show you’ve given all of us..."
......
Stranger of Three Lifetimes turned green with anger. Clenching her fists and gritting her teeth, she glared angrily at Song of Cloud and Water before muttering to herself, "Hmph, Soul Battle Robes wants to go that far? Very well! I shall remember this humiliation for eternity!"
I shivered a little when I heard this. God damn, I had no idea that she’s such a grudge-bearing person. Will she chase me to the ends of the world when she realizes that I have no intention of returning her 1000 mages?
As if she could sense my glance, Stranger of Three Lifetimes turned toward me and asked, "Why are you staring at me like that?"
"N-nothing..." I hurriedly shook my head.
"Oh really? Then why do I sense something unpleasant from your gaze?" The mage refused to let it go.
Li Chengfeng immediately said, "He’s just looking at your 34Ds. Right, Lu Chen?"
I would’ve bitten him to death if I could. I hurriedly explained myself, "I, er... I was admiring your 34Ds, but it’s the kind of admiration you use when you’re looking at a piece of art, you get me? Right! I don’t mean any vulgarity at all, so you can rest easy Momo..."
Stranger of Three Lifetimes replied expressionlessly, "You say that it’s not vulgar, but I can’t help but recall the many, many, many times you called me Third Wheel. Pooh! Just you wait, Lu Chen, I swear I’m going to annihilate your ass one day!"
Chiang!
Unfortunately for Stranger of Three Lifetimes, that was the trigger word for Lin Yixin. She immediately unsheathed her Seven Star Veluriyam Sword a little and observed the mage closely. "You’re joking, right Beauty Momo? You would never try to hurt Lu Chen, right?"
Even Lian Xin had planted her scepter on the ground and summoned her Telekinetic Shield. At the same time, the brilliant magic circle that was Ice Spiral Matrix appeared soundlessly beneath Stranger of Three Lifetimes’ feet. She didn’t say anything, but her intention was as clear as day.
For the first time ever, Lin Yixin and Lian Xin actually cooperated on something.
......
Stranger of Three Lifetimes’ face turned as white as paper as she stumbled backward. Then, she pouted and complained, "God dammit, just what is so good about Lu Chen anyway? I can’t believe he got so many beautiful girls to protect him, pooh!"
Both Lin Yixin and Lian Xin blushed a bit when they heard this.
At the side, Gui Guzi shook his head with equal astonishment. "Damn, if one day I have these many beautiful girls to protect me, I can die happy..."
Sitting on the handrails, Li Chengfeng smiled lazily at him and joked, "What do you mean? Yamete loves you like a lover, doesn't he? He always hollers at you in the corridor with a boxed lunch with him, ‘Little Gui, come out and eat already! It’s red braised pork belly today!’ If that isn’t true love, I don’t know what is..."
"True love your sister—" Gui Guzi roared from the bottom of his heart before kicking Li Chengfeng right off the stand!
Swhoosh!
The dragon warrior fell like a meteor and crashed at the edge of the stage and right next to Fei’er’s feet. It so happened that a hexagram was imprinted on the ground where his face was, so his face had a hexagram mark on it.
Shocked, Fei’er looked at Li Chengfeng and asked, "Ah? Aren’t you Legendary Brave of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls? What are you trying to do?"
Li Chengfeng raised his head, gritted his teeth and clenched his feet tightly. "Gui Guzi, you bastard! I will destroy you!"
After he climbed back to his feet and jumped back to the stand, he exchanged a punch with Gui Guzi before threatening, "Just you wait, you fucker! My surname ain’t Li if I don’t drink you to the bottom of the table!"
Gui Guzi laughed. "Bullshit! How dare you complain when you landed right next to the host’s feet!"
Blue veins started popping across Li Chengfeng’s head. "I’m the one who should say that! I’m a righteous and stand-up person, I’d never do the dirty things you wish you did!"
A gullible person would’ve fallen for the farce, but not me. I faced him and asked, "Alright, cut the act and tell us the color already."
Abashed, Li Chengfeng rubbed his nose before revealing the answer, "It’s pink..."
On the stage, Fei’er turned as red as an apple. She glared at Li Chengfeng as she declared, "The next match is between Thunder and Snowy Cathaya! Contestants, please get ready for the match!"
......
Thunder was a super guild in Wind City with over two hundred thousand players. Although their quality sucked, they made up for it with sheer numbers. At the same time, they were one of the six major allies of Candle Dragon. Today, Candle Dragon had formed an alliance with the three great guilds of Vanished God City, Hall of Immortality, Rose of the Holy Domain and Throne Seeker, and the three great guilds of Wind City, Thunder, Silver Soul and Wings of Awakening.
Lin Yixin had never liked Candlelight Shadow, and Snowy Cathaya’s relationship with Candle Dragon could only be described as hostile. There was only one response she could’ve given considering that her current opponent was one of their allies.
Chiang!
Beauty Lin pulled out the Seven Star Veluriyam Sword and declared, "Snowy Cathaya, we will destroy Thunder with a 10:0 score!"
