Chapter 197: Stealing chicken but losing rice
Lin Xin’s message was not only to Long Haochen, he also did not avoid Ye Tian.
After learning about this situation, Ye Tian looked at Yang Wenzhao and Duan Yi calmly, with a playful curve on his lips.
Someone is going to suffer next!
"It's about time. I'll go over to compete first."
Long Haochen didn't say much, he just stood up and walked towards the trial field arena.
"Come on, boss!"
The members of the general-level No. 22 Demon Hunting Group cheered for Long Haochen.
"Come on, little brother Haochen, give him a good beating!"
Li Xin and Lin Jialu were not idle either.
As Long Haochen left the field, the attention of all demon hunters in the entire trial field was drawn to him.
For this gambling fight, the staff of the Knight Trial Field also specially invited a seventh-level Templar Knight to serve as the referee of this competition.
Of course it’s not in vain.
The winner of the bet needs to pay 500 merits as a reward to the Knight Templar.
"It's finally starting!"
Li Xin whispered softly, but her eyes never moved away.
Although it was not her turn to compete, one could see nervousness on the girl's face.
Ye Tian couldn't help but smile faintly at this.
"Don't be nervous, Sister Xin. Haochen's current cultivation level is only a hair's breadth away from his opponent. As long as nothing unexpected happens, he won't lose."
Although Long Haochen is definitely weaker than in the original due to the lack of the light elemental elf and the Tower of Aion, not everyone can challenge him.
If he were to face an opponent of a higher level, the outcome might still be uncertain.
But he is only at the peak of level five, so he can still handle it easily.
I don’t know if Ye Tian’s comfort worked, but Li Xin was obviously much more relaxed and even had the mood to joke.
"That's for sure. After all, back in Haoyue City, Brother Haochen once defeated me."
"hehe."
Ye Tian smiled and shook his head.
He knew that what Li Xin was talking about was the time when Long Haochen went to Haoyue City for knight certification.
Defeating something is still too exaggerated.
It was just a competition at that time. If it came to a serious fight, Long Haochen would not be a match for Li Xin.
"Xin'er, stop interrupting us. The competition is about to begin."
Lin Jialu called out softly, drawing everyone's attention back to the ring.
The fifth member of the No. 8 Demon Hunting Group walked onto the stage.
Looking at Long Haochen, who had already put on the Holy Spirit Armor and had an indifferent expression on his face, he still felt somewhat ashamed.
Perhaps he felt guilty and Lao Wu couldn't help but speak.
"Little brother, have you thought it through? It's not too late to reduce some of your merits now."
Long Haochen shook his head, "No need, since we are here, we might as well give it a try."
"Fine!"
Seeing this, Lao Wu didn't try to persuade him too much.
Just think of it as letting Long Haochen spend his merits to learn a lesson!
Seeing that both of them were ready, the seventh-level Templar Knight standing beside them slowly spoke.
"Since both parties have no objection, then transfer all the merit points you bet to me!"
Long Haochen and Lao Wu transferred their merits one after another.
The Templar Knight then continued, "Let me make it clear in advance that this is just an ordinary competition. If one party admits defeat or loses the ability to fight, they will be deemed the loser."
"You are not allowed to injure or kill your opponent. Once I find that one party cannot withstand the opponent's attack, I will stop the match."
"Not only am I the referee of this competition, all demon hunters present are notaries."
"Do you understand everything?"
Long Haochen and Lao Wu nodded at the same time.
"Well, then both sides should distance themselves and the competition will officially begin!"
The Templar shouted.
After they saluted, they slowly distanced themselves from each other.
The rest area suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at the two people on the ring expectantly.
Long Haochen was wearing the Holy Spirit Armor and holding the Holy Spirit Sword.
If nothing unexpected happens, this set of equipment should also have been given to him by Han Qian.
On the other hand, the opponent, Lao Wu, was wearing heavy armor, which looked much thicker than the Holy Spirit Armor to the naked eye.
Although it is just a magic equipment, its defensive power is obviously much stronger.
In addition, the weapon is a pair of battle axes.
The battle axe was quite huge, and the axe blade was like half a wheel, emitting a faint cold light. There was a diamond-shaped blue gem inlaid on each axe face, and the magic fluctuations were quite strong.
"Be careful!" Lao Wu had a wild laugh on his face.
Long Haochen still had a calm expression on his face, but he did something that no one expected.
Take a step forward and take the lead in charging.
"Well done!"
Lao Wu did not dodge or evade, but strode forward to meet him.
With his tall and strong figure, and the heavy armor he wore, he looked like a steel beast.
He raised the axe high in his left hand, swung it in a circle and chopped it down.
Long Haochen suddenly stopped, raised the sword and shield in his hands, and assumed a standard defensive posture.
"clang!"
A golden light and a loud crisp sound appeared together.
The axe in Lao Wu's hand was directly lifted up by the shock.
God blocks!
All the demon hunters present exclaimed at the same time.
Is this a skill that a new demon hunting group can master? !
Including the fifth player on the stage, he was also surprised and couldn't help but put away his contempt for Long Haochen.
Ignoring other people's reactions, Long Haochen moved again.
Such a rare opportunity to attack will naturally not be easily missed.
The Holy Spirit Sword in his right hand suddenly stabbed out, and countless sword shadows instantly appeared and covered Lao Wu.
It was the lightning thorn.
Lao Wu did not dare to be careless. He waved the axe with one hand and tried his best to block the oncoming sword shadow.
However, the attacks were so fierce that he couldn't block them all.
"Clang clang clang!"
The sound of dense metal collision was heard.
The lightning thorns with the revenge of light were quite powerful, and they instantly left dents of varying degrees on Lao Wu's heavy armor.
But it was also thanks to the amazing defensive power of the heavy armor.
Although I suffered a loss, I did not suffer any substantial harm.
It is precisely because of this that Lao Wu's evaluation of Long Haochen has greatly improved.
A guardian knight who not only masters the divine blocking skill but can also use lightning stabs is obviously not simple.
After putting aside his contempt, Lao Wu also decided to give his all.
Axe Warriors are a type of Berserker, completely focused on attacking, somewhat similar to Retribution Knights, except that they don't have mounts.
The attributes of knights are all based on light attributes, but this is not the case for warriors. Their attributes are ever-changing.
The fifth one is of wind attribute.
The battle became intense as soon as it started.
However, the strength displayed by Long Haochen far exceeded everyone's imagination.
No matter how fierce Lao Wu's attack was, he could deal with it calmly and easily resolve it.
Even as time went by, Long Haochen had already gained the upper hand.
"Isn't it?!"
There was some commotion in the lounge area.
Many demon hunters who bet on Lao Wu to win have begun to panic.
"It's just as Xiaotian said, Long Haochen is even more powerful than before!"
Wang Yuanyuan couldn't help but sigh softly.
Based on the strength that Long Haochen has shown so far, Shield Girl has no confidence that she can defeat the opponent.
Mina smiled foolishly, "Doesn't that mean it's stable?"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the situation on the ring suddenly changed.
Lao Wu roared loudly, and his already strong body suddenly swelled up, giving people a sense of powerful pressure like a mountain.
The berserker's frenzy skill.
Not only that, a ball of silver light flew out from Lao Wu's hand.
A figure suddenly enlarged and turned out to be a tall warrior covered in armor.
It turned out to be a metal puppet made by the secret art of alchemy. It held a heavy sword in both hands and had infinite strength. Its strength was comparable to that of a peak fifth-level warrior.
"Oh my god, using this kind of thing is really shameless."
Li Xin couldn't help but curse.
Thanks to '阿w呆d正s传' for the reward of 100 book coins!
