Chapter 128 Arena

Holding a map of Samsara Paradise, Xinghan explored the location of the arena.

It has to be said that the internal area of ​​Samsara Paradise is too large. After half an hour of searching, Xinghan finally stopped in front of a towering building.

This building is quite spectacular, and it is impossible to estimate the actual size of the arena inside just from the appearance.

The entrance to the arena was crowded with people, with an endless stream of contractors coming in and out.

There are many product stalls arranged around, with a dazzling array of products.

"The latest ranking updates in the arena!"

"Secrets on how to win quickly in close combat with a knife."

"Victory celebration poses fully included."

"In-depth analysis of the release and actual combat application of legal skills."

Facing these various product introductions, Xinghan felt his eyes widened. However, he did not come here just to hang out. His stay in the park was limited, and this was his only chance to compete in the first-level arena.

Xinghan walked through many stalls and entered the threshold of the arena. In an instant, the familiar feeling of teleportation appeared, but it was much shorter than the process of entering the world.

[System prompt: You have successfully entered the arena, please select your participation mode. 】

[Options: Competitive Mode/Spectator Mode]

What follows is a series of detailed explanations:

【spectate mode】

You can pay to watch the fierce duels of other contractors. By spending 2 points of paradise coins per hour, you can watch any ongoing match at will. The 12365th match is currently in progress.

If you want to watch the duel between the top 10 players in the arena, you need to pay park coins per hour;

If you want to watch the fierce battle of the top 10 masters up close, the fee is 50 park coins per hour;

If you want to see the top 3, you need to spend 100 park coins per hour.

【Competitive Mode】

In this mode, the hunter himself participates in the competition, and Samsara Paradise will be ranked according to whether the hunter has participated in the competition.

The competitive mode is divided into [individual battle] and [team battle].

Individual battles are in 1v1 mode, and team battles are in 10v10 mode. The two ranking mechanisms will be calculated separately.

If you die in the arena, you will return to the rest cabin. You will not actually die, but the feeling before death will still exist.

Xinghan has long heard of the name of the arena, and he has three main purposes for coming here this time.

First, break the shield/weapon that meets the requirements to help "Broken Star" advance;

Second, hone his combat skills. He doesn't have much actual combat experience, and one of his talents, "Star Walker", will cause a surge in physical fitness. He needs to adapt to this change, otherwise it will sometimes have the opposite effect in combat.

Third, try to get an arena ranking. I heard that there are rewards for being ranked high in the arena. In the next world, he will be promoted to the second level. If the advancement is successful, he will not have the chance to play the first level arena.

"Choose competitive mode: individual battle."

[Beep..., started to check whether the hunter participated in the competition. After the check, the hunter has never participated in any form of competition. 】

[Beginning to assign rankings to hunters, the current ranking is 185743 (first-level ranking). (This ranking has nothing to do with the hunter’s strength. It is the number of times the hunter has participated in competitions and the victory or defeat.)]

[Hunters are asked to actively participate in the arena. The top 10 in the arena will be given special rewards. 】

[It was detected that the hunter is in possession of a very high-risk item: the original sin item "Dark Emperor Blade"]

[According to the balancing mechanism, this item has been temporarily banned! 】

[The compensation mechanism is activated, and the hunter’s initial ranking is improved, now ranking 10000. 】

[The hunter has chosen to participate in the competitive mode: individual battle, and will be transferred to the rest cabin in three seconds. 】

As soon as his eyes flashed, Xinghan had appeared in a rest cabin.

The rest cabin is fully equipped with comfortable seats and beds.

On the wall directly opposite is a display screen occupying a quarter of the area.

His current competitive ranking and the real-time changes of contractors near his ranking were prominently displayed on the screen. Various game information and statistics were also scattered around.

Occupying the top position of the display screen are ten avatars of different shapes, neatly arranged from top to bottom, representing the top ten players in the arena.

These avatars are all disguised, hiding their true appearance.

Moreover, in addition to providing the necessary rest environment, this multi-functional rest cabin also provides any other needs. Just call and employees in the arena will respond quickly and come to serve you.

[Matching opponents for Hunter..., matching completed. 】

[Since this is the first battle, hunters are asked to choose their appearance. 】

A large number of appearances appear, as diverse as the skins in the game. Even the prices are just like in the game. Some weird and bizarre appearances even charge paradise coins.

Generally, contractors tend to change the shape of their facial features, either to make themselves handsome and beautiful, which is pleasing to the eye; or to make them extremely ugly, to achieve a shocking effect, commonly known as scaring the enemy into tears.

Xinghan chose to hide his true identity in the arena. Since there were so many people in the audience, his fighting skills and habits would be remembered by interested people if he didn't hide them.

Xinghan carefully selected a mask of Monkey King, covering his entire face.

The equipment on his body was covered up by special effects and transformed into the simplest moon-white short-combat suit.

[The hunter has chosen his outfit and started teleporting. 】

Xinghan's vision blurred for a moment, and after his vision returned to clarity, he began to examine the surrounding environment and the upcoming opponents.

Because the Original Sin Object was banned, his ranking was raised to 10,000.

For the park's huge base of first-level contractors, it would not be too weak to be among the top 10,000, and Xinghan would naturally not take it lightly.

At this moment, he was in a wide circular arena with a diameter of about three to four hundred meters.

The ground beneath his feet was made of non-slip metal. Xing Han stepped hard on it without any movement, and the entire edge of the arena was surrounded by an energy barrier.

Looking around, the stadium is designed with a stepped auditorium layout, like a basin shape. The flat and open competition area in the center sinks slightly, while the surrounding auditoriums rise step by step, forming a hierarchical viewing pattern.

This ingenious design not only allows every spectator to have an excellent perspective to appreciate the fierce competitive showdown, but the cheering sounds from the audience will also converge at the bottom of the arena, stimulating the fighting spirit of the competitors.

With Xinghan's current ranking of 10,000, it has attracted many employees and contractors who are keen to watch battles.

[The opponent is ranked 9971, please prepare both sides! 】

Xinghan carefully looked at the opponent in front of him.

This is a mage, and obviously the outcome of the battle between the two will depend on the distance between them.

Looking at the staff in the opponent's hand, Xing Han frowned.

I don’t know if the staff is considered among the “weapons”.

A long stick appeared in Xinghan's hand.

"Ding!"

The long stick made a crisp sound when it hit the metal ground.

[Competition begins! 】

At the beginning, Xinghan's legs were slightly bent and he rushed towards the mage at full speed.

"Shh!"

The mage raised his staff and was preparing to cast a spell. A fireball was slowly forming at the front of his staff.

The next second, a snow-white stick shadow appeared in front of him.

"boom!"

The mage's figure flew out upside down, and the weak fire in front of the staff was extinguished instantly.

"Is this "repelling"? "

Xinghan was very satisfied with the effect of this blow.

At this moment, he didn't activate any bonuses. Just an ordinary sweep could have such significant consequences. It not only knocked the opponent away, but also interrupted the opponent's skills.

The mage spat out a mouthful of blood, and while his body flew in the air, he felt doubtful about life.

Does he lack combat experience? Don't know how to keep distance when facing close combat? Not so. As one of the top 10,000 contractors in the arena, his combat IQ would certainly not be so low.

The so-called fireball technique and the undefended body are both naked traps.

As early as the beginning of the battle, he instantly cast two psychic traps in front of him.

This is a skill that comes with his staff, and can be activated instantly by consuming mana.

He relied on this tactic to trap and kill many strong melee fighters.

Just now, he watched helplessly as Xing Han stepped on the spiritual trap, and he was secretly happy in his heart.

Then a stick hit him on the waist.

"Damn it! Where is my trap? Has the skill failed?"

The mage flying in mid-air struggled and looked in the direction of Xinghan.

When he found that the other party was standing still and didn't move, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Such a powerful melee fighter among first-order contractors should not have any long-range damage capabilities...

"boom!"

A flash of light and shadow flashed by, and the mage felt that his waist had received another heavy blow.

"what happened?!"

The contractor's life value returned to zero. Before his figure disappeared, he looked at Xinghan in confusion and found that the other party was standing 20 meters away without moving even an inch.

……

"call!"

The mage woke up in his rest cabin and immediately contacted his teammates in the stands.

"Why has he mastered the ability to release mana? Are you kidding me?! He is a melee fighter! First-level melee fighter!"

The mage smiled bitterly when he saw that he had fallen below 1 in the arena ranking. It seemed that he had encountered a serious problem this time. He was immune to mind control and even had a broken staff.

Xinghan, who defeated his opponent, also returned to the rest cabin.

[The hunter’s ranking has been improved, from 10000 to 9983 (first level). 】

In the last blow just now, he used the "Gun Gang". The mage suffered a heavy blow with all his strength without being prepared. Most of his health bar had fallen. A "Gun Gang" hit emptied the opponent's health. .

After checking the condition of "Broken Star", I found that there was no change in the long stick in my hand.

"Is the staff not considered a weapon, or is the level of the staff too low?"

He chose to continue matching his opponents.

[Making an opponent for the Hunter...]

【Matching completed! Opponent ranked 9609...]

Xinghan entered the arena again. This time, his opponent was a melee fighter with a gun.

Both sides showed their weapons and stood facing each other.

[Competition begins! 】

Both sides used long weapons, and they slowly approached each other without making any rash moves.

When the distance between the two reached a critical point, the gun-wielding contractor took the lead.

Xinghan's long stick is more than two meters long, and the opponent's long spear is nearly four meters long, which gives him a certain advantage.

I saw the other party's spear flicking, and a bit of cold light shot directly into Xinghan's face.

Xinghan remained calm and steady on his feet. He moved slightly and dodged the opponent's thrust.

The gun-wielding contractor did not use all his strength with this spear. The moment Xing Han dodged, his hands pushed in the opposite direction, and the spear turned into a long stick and slashed vertically towards Xing Han.

The opponent temporarily changed his moves and used only 50% to 60% of his strength. Xinghan completed the parry with one move of his long stick.

The gun-wielding contractor only felt a powerful burst of power under his hands, and his hands could hardly hold the handle of the spear.

The "Knockback" effect is triggered again.

The gun-wielding contractor certainly didn't want to lose this fight. He pressed down on the handle of the gun with all his strength, hoping to take advantage of attacking from top to bottom and suppress Xinghan in terms of strength.

The consequences of doing this are...

The contractor with the gun spurted out a mouthful of blood and quickly took two steps back to distance himself.

Seeing that Xinghan did not pursue the victory, he glanced at the battle prompts.

[You suffered the knockback effect]

[You forcibly suppressed the knockback effect]

[You suffer backlash damage]

[You took 86 points of damage + 8 points of real concussion damage]

……

"Repulse skills..."

As a melee fighter, he certainly knew that knockback skills were generally reserved for stronger contractors.

He immediately adjusted his tactics, gave up competing with Xinghan for strength, moved his feet, and circled around Xinghan, trying to find an opportunity to attack.

Xinghan obviously would not give the opponent such a chance. He rubbed his body forward and struck down with a long stick from top to bottom with all his strength, exactly the same as the opponent's move just now.

The gun-wielding contractor didn't want to have a head-on confrontation with Xinghan, so he moved quickly, trying to dodge.

However, after dodging Xinghan's first strike, a continuous barrage of crazy sticks followed.

In the end, he had no choice but to raise his gun to fight.

"Bang! Bang!...Crack!"

After receiving the Star Hanshu Strike attack, the durability of the spear in his hand returned to zero and turned into pieces.

"I surrender!"

Before Xinghan's long stick fell on his head, the gun-wielding contractor shouted the word "admit defeat."

The long stick passed through the shadow of the gun-wielding contractor and fell to the ground, leaving a shallow white mark.

[The hunter’s ranking has been improved, from 9983 to 9901 (first level). 】

[You have achieved two consecutive victories. The more consecutive victories you have, the faster your ranking will increase! 】

[Y/n continue the challenge? 】

Xinghan did not choose immediately, but checked the situation of "Broken Star".

[Grownable weapon ‘Broken Star’, current quality: blue, growth rate 1%]

After "Broken Star" grows to blue quality, its basic attack power increases and its true swing damage increases to 8%.

However, just smashing a spear of unknown quality only increased the growth rate by 1%.

Xinghan had some enlightenment in his heart.

The two prompts are "Soul/Life" and "Shield/Soldier".

The first word should be the preferred option, and the last word should be the alternative option.

Xinghan shattered a "Soul Crystal·Large", which directly upgraded the broken star twice.

And breaking a spear is only enough to increase the current level by 1%.

Xinghan expected a shield-wielding tank contractor to appear and verify his idea.

"Keep matching!"
