This assassin is upright

Chapter 165: Players Like Boss (asking for monthly tickets!)
The scene suddenly changed, and Yu Zhun appeared on a circular arena with a diameter of only ten meters. The arena was surrounded by insurmountable chaos, and in front of him, a blood-red countdown appeared.

【30: 00】

Can it only exist for thirty seconds?

Yu Zhun understood it in his mind, and at the same time quickly glanced at his own attributes.

Sure enough, the feeling that he became weaker after entering this place was not an illusion. Now all his attributes were reduced to half of their original values.

It is equivalent to losing the title of [Lord of the Netherworld] out of thin air.

It’s worthy of being an SSS-level talent.

The range of the arena itself is a great suppression for ranged professions such as archers and mages, which is beneficial to Rayman as an assassin. In addition, the arena can also reduce player attributes.

No, it should be more than that.

Since there is a reduction, there will naturally be an increase.

Yu Zhun looked at Leiman who was rushing towards him.

How much have this guy's attributes improved?

The accessory equipment effect [Grab] is activated!

Use on the designated target to reduce the target's physical attack and magical attack by 20%, and increase the reduced value to the target's own physical defense and magical defense by the same amount!

【Physical Defense +542300】

271w physical attack? !
Seeing the increase which was higher than his peak physical defense, Yu Zhun's heart skipped a beat. Facing the rapidly enlarging cold light in his field of vision, he stomped his foot.

The gray area instantly covered the entire arena area.

[Thorn of the End] exclusive skill, [Assassin's Field]!
"Ping—"

The two weapons collided instantly. Leiman frowned and looked at Yu Zhun with a cold look in his eyes. "Your attributes..."

"wrong."

The [Life and Death Arena] talent can increase all of Leiman's attributes by 100% and gain 50% of the opponent's attributes. Therefore, Leiman instantly determined that there was something wrong with Yu Jun's attributes based on the abnormal increase in life, physical defense, and magical defense.

This guy is an assassin who focuses on tankiness!

This means two things.

First, the assassin in front of him most likely has multiple defensive equipment effects, which can be seen from the opponent's amazing shield amount and ability to steal his own physical attack.

Second, this assassin's talent is definitely not a conventional one.

In addition, Leiman also felt the strong suppression on his agility from the opponent's [Assassin Field] that covered the entire field.

This suppression was further strengthened at the moment when the weapons of both sides collided.

Two weapons...

The opponent also has [Unparalleled Sword Dance]!
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. Leiman couldn't help but ask, "You..."

"clang--"

[【The Thorn of the End】Yu Zhun, I have sounded the death knell for you! 】

Along with a line of scarlet text appearing before his eyes, a blood-red dagger logo appeared above Leiman's head.

A death knell interrupted Leiman who seemed to want to say something, and the two daggers in Yu Zong's hands attacked more and more fiercely.

"Ping ping ping -"

In the successive collisions, Leiman's movements became slower and slower. When the eighth collision ended and the equipment effect [Cangyuan] of [Netherworld Instant Magic Blade] reached its upper limit, reducing Leiman's agility by 40%, Yu Zhun turned around in the air cleanly and switched weapons instantly.

Weapon changed: [Netherworld Mourning Demon Blade +25]!
Weapon equipment effect [Soul Capture], activated!

The physical and magical attacks of targets facing the holder are reduced by 40%!

With the help of [Grab] used before, Yu Zhun reduced the opponent's physical attack, which had soared to 271w due to his talent, to 108w!

Weapon equipment effect [Elegy], activated!

Agility increased by 200%, lasts for 10s!

At this moment, Yu Zhun, whose agility had reached the extreme, moved as fast as lightning. When Leiman was caught off guard, he stabbed the opponent fiercely with the dagger in his hand.

"Chong-"

With a sharp sound of metal clashing, the blade of the dagger was blocked by an invisible force in Leiman's chest.

Leiman came back to his senses and his expression instantly darkened.

Boots equipment effect [Rescue]: When attacked with an attack that reduces your health to zero, you will become immune to this attack. This effect only takes effect once per battle!
The activation of the equipment effect means that even if the attribute is reduced by 50%, the assassin in front of him still has enough output capacity to kill him instantly!

Just as I thought, the opponent has an output talent that does not rely on attack attributes.

"You are qualified to let me remember your name."

Looking at Yu Zhun who turned the situation around in a very short time and almost killed him, Leiman spoke slowly.

The next moment, his aura suddenly became dangerous, the suppression on his own agility was swept away, and he took the initiative to attack Yu Zhun.

For God-level players, hidden professions are almost standard.

And Rayman's hidden profession is extremely consistent with his own talents.

Hidden profession, [Dueling Dead Apostles]!
This hidden profession has an extremely strong passive [Duel Mastery].

When facing 1 enemy target, the damage itself increases by 50%, and the damage type changes to true damage!

Even though his physical attack was greatly reduced by Yu Zhun at this moment, Rayman's current output could still instantly kill Yu Zhun, whose health was halved!

The exclusive skills corresponding to this hidden profession are also impressive.

[Duel with Dead Apostles] exclusive skill, [Peak Moment].

Attack speed increased by 300%, agility increased by 200%, dispelling all negative states, lasting for 5s, cooldown of 30s!

The 5-second [Peak Moment] combined with the inseparable [Death and Life Arena] and the passive [Duel of the Dead] can give Rayman the capital to kill his opponents in the arena in a short period of time!
This is also the reason why no player has ever left the ring alive after being pulled into the ring by Rayman!
After realizing the threat from Yu Zhun, Leiman did not dare to be careless at all. In that brief moment, he activated all the effects of his output equipment and used [Peak Moment] to kill Yu Zhun!
"Give me, die!"

The dagger in Leiman's hand suddenly stabbed towards Yu Zhun, and in a brief moment it broke through the defense of Yu Zhun's two daggers and stabbed towards Yu Zhun's shoulder!

【Life-460065】

Helmet equipment effect [Fearless], activated!

The health value decreases by no more than 50% of the maximum health value per second!

The next moment, two lines of text, one white and one green, popped up above Yu Zhun’s head.

[Shield-460065]

【Life+460065】

The protective gear equipment effect [continues] is activated!

When the health value is not full, if there is a shield, the shield will be automatically consumed to restore the same amount of health!
Looking at Yu Zhun’s full health bar, Leiman’s face darkened.

Although he had anticipated that the opponent before him would be quite tough, it was still beyond his imagination that an assassin would be so difficult to kill.

Without waiting for him to make any further move, Yu Zhun had already thrust out his dagger and stabbed it fiercely into Leiman's abdomen.

【Life-2439943】

This time, there was no immunity to attack effect.

Rayman's health bar was emptied instantly by the fatal blow, leaving only the last drop of blood locked unchanged.

"One strike kills..."

There was a hint of realization in Leiman's eyes when he looked at Yu Zhun.

No wonder this guy dares to stack tankiness so willfully.

Because no matter how you attack, the opponent only needs to hit you once, and that's enough.

Thinking of this, Leiman shook his head and put down the dagger in his hand.

"Don't continue?"

Yu Zhun looked at Leiman and spoke slowly.

"It's meaningless." Rayman shook his head calmly, "I know better than anyone what kind of opponents my talent can restrain." In forced duels and attribute confrontations, the mechanism of [Life and Death Arena] can crush everything, but when facing talents that do not rely on attributes, its restraining effect will be greatly reduced.

A single strike kills, something Rayman cannot overcome.

Especially when he couldn't kill Yu Zhun easily.

"This time, I'm screwed."

"But..." Leiman looked at Yu Zhun deeply, "You shouldn't be so complacent."

"On the Blood Killing List, there are two talents that I know of that can restrain a one-hit kill."

Yu Zhun's heart moved, "Thank you for your reminder."

Rayman shook his head slightly.

"I'll watch this one after it's over."

“I hope you’re the one who has the last laugh.”

"This way, it won't be too embarrassing to lose to you."

The blood lock time ended quickly, and under Yu Zhun's attack, Leiman disappeared from the spot, and the ring collapsed, sending Yu Zhun out early.

After licking the bag, Yu Zhun looked around.

By the time he and Rayman entered the arena of life and death, many new players had teleported over, targeting them as prey.

A death knell sounded, and a new killing began.
-
In the viewing area, countless players who were eagerly awaiting the outcome of the duel between the two players on the Blood Killing List could not help but exclaim in surprise.

"He actually came out alive?"

"That was a God-level player from the 85th God Zone. He had never failed since entering the [Purgatory Arena]. How could he lose?"

"This player named Yu Zhun is quite impressive. I've never heard of him before."

"I have been watching him. Although he is from a relatively backward server, this player has a very rare one-hit-kill talent among SSS-level talents. He is very powerful."

"... "

Listening to the discussions of other players in the viewing space, everyone in the [Killer God] Guild suddenly looked proud.

"What Son of God? I told you that Yu Zhun would definitely win." Yu Zhu said with a smile, showing great confidence in Yu Zhun.

More than 20 new professional players who had just joined the guild were also watching the battle. At this moment, they all showed an expression of amazement, and it seemed that the image of the young president had suddenly become much taller.

This is a former Son of God-level player in the Hundred Gods Zone, and he will almost certainly become a god in the future!
If such a powerful player was killed by the guild leader, then doesn't that mean the guild leader is also...

Thinking of this, their eyes were filled with excitement, and they felt like they had found the right person.

Salaven quietly returned to the crowd, and when she heard the news that Yu Zhun had killed Leiman, her tense expression relaxed a little.

"As expected of you, the president."

"Shalavin, where did you go to investigate just now?" Su Hong asked curiously.

"I went to see what was going on with Early." Salaven pushed her glasses and spoke slowly.

"I told you, Sha Le Wen must have gone there." Ji Xiaoyu looked as if she hadn't expected it, and smiled, "How's the situation?"

However, Salaven did not answer immediately.

The smiles on everyone's faces faded a little.

The familiarity they had gained during this period of time had given them a certain understanding of Salaven. Generally, Salaven not speaking meant...

Very tricky.

"Early, he looks no different from the [Evil Maniac]," Shalevin said slowly, "but he has a very unusual ability. I can't be sure whether it is a talent or a hidden profession."

"It seems that his blood lock can be used multiple times in a battle."

Hearing this, everyone's faces instantly tensed.

As long as the players have the conditions, they will not hesitate to use one or two equipment effect positions to save their lives. After all, only by being alive can they output.

Therefore, locking health is an ability that most players have.

But generally, this ability only has one chance in a battle.

If Early could lock the enemy's health multiple times in a battle as Salaven said...

How should Yu Zhun fight against the opponent?

"The president is now ranked 8th, but the gap in kills between him and Early is widening." Su Yue on the side spoke softly.

Yu Zhun's kill count has exceeded 20, but Early's kill count is already heading towards 40.

The higher you rank, the easier it is for others to target you.

If one has extremely strong strength, the number of kills will increase faster in this case.

Therefore, the gap in the number of kills between different rankings will continue to widen.

The greater the gap between your kill count and that of others, the easier it is for others to target you, causing your kill count to grow faster and faster.

This is a positive cycle.

The only way to break this cycle is for the targeted player to be killed.

嗏

As things stand, Early is very difficult to kill.

"My concern now is..." Salaven looked at Yu Zhun and spoke slowly, "The president will directly choose Early as the opponent."

Having seen Early's moves, Salvin knew very well that Early's multiple, unclear blood-locking moves had a considerable restraint on Yu Zhun.

But he was unable to pass this important news to Yu Zhun.

From Yu Zhun's perspective, a target whose kill count is rapidly increasing is undoubtedly the one that needs to be killed first.

Therefore, there is a great probability that Yu Zhun will actively choose Early.

"Don't worry." Xila said softly.

Almost the next moment after she finished speaking, Yu Zhun, who had killed all the players present, disappeared on the spot.

This time, everyone saw his choice clearly.

Early.

Salaven: “…”

He couldn't help but give Sheila a strange look.

Since I've already chosen it, I don't have to worry about it, right?

"Go, go, go, change the perspective quickly!"

Ji Xiaoyu's exclamation brought everyone who were petrified on the spot back to their senses. The players who were watching the game quickly left and switched areas to continue watching the game.
-
"Om-"

With a flash of light, Yu Zhun appeared near Early. He grasped two daggers tightly and subconsciously prepared to attack, but after seeing the scene in front of him clearly, he couldn't help but shrink his pupils.

Under a huge blood-red beam of light, a white-haired young man with a blood-stained cloak laughed crazily, holding a dagger and fighting against many enemies alone.

Every blow drew blood, and the player was on the verge of death many times, struggling on the edge of low health, but every time Early attacked, he would take a player's life.

If it weren't for the dagger in his hand, almost no one would think that this madman was an assassin. He looked more like a berserker.

Before and after Yu Zhun appeared, players teleported in one after another.

Among them were many players on the Blood Killing List, and there were even several whose blood-colored light pillars were as thick as Yu Zhun’s.

After seeing the crazy killing on the field, all the players showed expressions of fear and solemnity, and for a moment no one dared to step forward rashly.

"Hehe~" Early laughed, his scarlet eyes full of madness and violence, "They are all here~"

"Then let's play together~"

Almost all the players who were watching this dungeon came to this area at this moment. Looking at the extremely bloody scene here, they were dumbfounded and silent for a long time. I don’t know who couldn’t help but murmured.

"This Early is like a dungeon boss."
