Arad's Sword

Chapter 377 Start the game

A few years ago, during the civil war in the Kingdom of Belmar, Midi went to the burnt Gran Forest to search for the inheritance of the Elven Royal Court.

During that adventure, he got to know the sisters "Double Sparks" Odell and "Double Butterfly" Irene, and gained the support of mercenary groups such as Iron Blood, Mountain Wolf, and Morning Star.

In the end, it was also based on these mercenary regiments that Midi got rid of the army model at the time and created a high-level army composed entirely of professionals——

Falcon Group!
And in that same adventure, he also encountered a hostile force called the Blood Blade Mercenary Group.

In the process of competing with Midi for the inheritance of the Elven King's Court, the blood blade mercenary group was completely defeated by Midi, and was finally defeated.

And the number one expert of the Blood Blade Mercenary Group, a level 45 dark elf roaming gunner named Mason, was chopped off by Midi and finally fled.

During the long battle, Midi has encountered countless enemies. However, when he was at a low level, he encountered a powerful enemy with a level of 45, and it was a long-range class that restrained melee. Naturally, Midi was deeply impressed.

Of course, originally, this Mason only existed in Midi's memory.

But at this moment, Midi was a little surprised to find that the dark elf, whose appearance, movement and expression were very similar to those in his memory, was actually in another team at this moment!

Moreover, he is actually the number one big shot among the slave fighters?

In order to confirm his guess, Midi asked Zaknafein specifically.

The answer I got was that this person was indeed that "Mason"!
I haven't seen him for a few years. Not only has the dark elf's hands returned to their original state through magic, but he has also been awakened, and his level has reached the peak of level 61. It can be said that although he lost to Midi, he was not defeated at all. It was defeated by itself, but revived.

Although I don't know why this person is a slave fighter here, Midi can be sure that the situation will become very complicated next.

Fortunately, Mason and his partner have been away on missions for a long time. Therefore, there was news of a new human being in the Tarantula tribe. They didn't know about it, so they directly entered the scene of the points competition.

Therefore, Mason still looks cold as if no one else is there. He stays in his team and doesn't look sideways, and he doesn't try to find human behavior.

However, after all, Midi is going to play, and at that time, there must be no way to hide it.

Zaknafein just wants to beat No. 5 and No. 1, but now, since No. [-], who even he can't suppress, has grievances with Midi. To be precise, there is only resentment but no kindness. When, what will happen?

Not even Midi herself had an answer.

And soon, before Midi had time to think about this issue further, the points race started quickly.

When the team entered the arena, each slave fighter got a number in their hands.

Midi's number is Red Nine, which means that he is the last slave fighter of the Red Team.

And the dark elf mage "Ice Hand" is naturally Hong Yi.

However, the order of the points race is not due to the fixed number, it is completely drawn by lottery.

After all, this is a point match, and the winner will not be determined in one round. A person must have played against eight other players in the same group before he can determine his own result.

Obviously, the Tarantula tribe is also very clear that these slave fighters often engage in various "sniper battles".

For example, let the slightly weaker younger brother consume the stronger challenger as much as possible, so that the top defending champion can save a lot of energy and other small actions.

Therefore, after this selection system is gradually perfected, the order of all battles will be determined by drawing lots.

In this way, there will even be a situation where a strong challenger will encounter the defending champion as soon as he comes up.

Moreover, this lottery system is not only used in the selection of slave fighters, even the selection of fighters of the Tarantula tribe itself is the same.

No matter where it is, as long as it is the strongest, this is the style of the Underdark.

Soon, as the rounds of lottery proceeded, the selection of each group also began.

"Red four versus red five!"

"Green to green seven!"

"Black Friday vs. Black One!"

For each group on the field, the referees' announcements sounded.

In the first few rounds of competition, the winner was quickly determined.

The referees are all warrior captains of the Tarantula Clan. They have rich experience and sharp eyesight. They can quickly give judgments on the obvious gap between good and bad.

For example, in the match between Black Five and Black One, just looking at the rankings, you can tell that the gap between the two sides is not small, and the dark elf ghost swordsman "Blood Hand" who is Black One even beat the opponent in just a few moves. Injury, there is no suspense at all.

However, unlike the bloody battle in Heishan Cave, here, the slave fighters were more measured in their strikes, and did not engage in any life-and-death battle, but mostly held back.

After all, this is a points match, not a game to determine the outcome.

Even if it is the defending champions at the top, if they come up and kill them, then in the next battle, their opponents will resist desperately, and even have the idea of ​​dying together, and it will be much more difficult to obtain points.

Even if they can still maintain a complete victory, or even kill the other eight people, they will still have to face the champions of other groups. At that time, their physical strength will be unsustainable.

Therefore, no one will exert their full strength at the beginning, let alone expose their hole cards.

"Red Nine vs. Red Six!"

Finally it was Midi's turn.

With a light leap, he landed on the ring in the arena.

Hongliu is a gray dwarf. He looks like a wine barrel. He is covered with heavy armor and holds a big ax in his hand. He looks into Midi's sight, but he is full of fear. .

The gray dwarf's speed is relatively slow, and its main advantage is its powerful attack and defense capabilities, as well as the extremely stable center of gravity brought by its height.

It can be said that under normal circumstances, they are the nemesis of agile opponents like dark elves.

However, the gray dwarf's magic talent is very poor, and most of them can't even do contract ghosts and gods. They can only appear as heavy armored warriors with a single method, that is, relying on brute force to attack.

And Midi has just shown a hand in brute force.

The record of directly blowing away the most powerful flesh-body warrior, the Lizardman, made the gray dwarf fearful.

"Crashing!"

The gray dwarf heavy armored warrior gritted his teeth, gathered all his strength, and slashed forward with one charge.

However, although this move looks menacing, his Mountain Collapsing Strike does not contain the power of ghosts and gods. It is just a rough use of magic power. How could Midi take notice of it?
Midi took a step forward lightly,
The two swords in his hands were unsheathed like lightning, and the real ghost swordsman skill "Collapse Mountain Strike" has been cut out.

There was a crisp sound of metal colliding, and sparks overflowed where the blade of the sword and the blade of the ax intersected.

Then there were faint golden-red rays of light all over Midi's body, and the two swords slashed from all directions like raindrops.

Facing the powerful gray dwarf heavy armored fighters, Midi still carried out the domineering way of "frontal combat".

However, his domineering is not pure strength, but also the superb sword skills and the monstrous aura honed on the battlefield.

Every blow is powerful, extremely fast, and smooth. How can an opponent like the gray dwarf who can only use brute force resist it?

In just two rounds, the gray dwarf was beaten wide open by Midi, and then Midi rushed forward, reversed the hilt of the sword, and slammed down on the gray dwarf's abdomen.

"Wow!" The gray dwarf let out a shrill cry, flew out, and rolled down the ring like a ball.

"Red Nine wins."

The referee was slightly taken aback, and quickly gave a judgment.

It was Midi's first game, and she won so easily.

Because his opponent is not strong, so it is not too noticeable.

Whether it was Galantis who came earlier this time, or other dark elves who had seen Midi's fierce and brute force, they all seemed to be expecting him to defeat this gray dwarf.

However, there was still a trace of worry that could not be eliminated in the eyes of the priestess.

Because this time, Midi will definitely face the ice player no matter what.

In the Tarantula Tribe, although the dark elf prisoner made outstanding contributions, he and his brother Bloody Hand didn't have a very good reputation. Both of them were said to be quite brutal.

"Red Nine vs. Red Eight!"

After a while, it was Midi's turn to play for the second time.

The sixth gray dwarf was kicked out of the ring by Midi, and the eighth black dwarf naturally couldn't resist the opponent's attack even more.

Midi's twin swords didn't even stop at all, as if a gust of extremely sharp cold wind rushed towards the black dwarf.

Bang!
The sword hilt hit his stomach again, and the black dwarf let out a muffled grunt, dropped his weapon and rolled down the ring covering his stomach.

"This kid actually used such an ordinary move to win..." The one time might have been taken advantage of the trend, but the two times might have been deliberately done. The dark elves who watched the battle began to whisper to each other.

As for the referee, this time he was mentally prepared and announced directly: "Red Nine wins!"

This is already Midi's second win.

His performance attracted the attention of many members of the Tarantula Tribe, but the "watching the fun" mentality that his human status brought to the Dark Elves has actually decreased a lot.

But in the next two matches, Midi was still the same as usual, first broke through the opponent's defense with a stormy and brutal offensive, then bullied him, and ended the battle with the hilt of his sword.

Four in a row!
"Red Nine vs. Red Three!"

Finally, in the fifth round, Midi's opponent changed from a low-ranked opponent to a high-ranked one.

The person who ranked third in the red group was a half-giant.

He has the blood of the rock giant in his body, so his figure is extraordinarily strong, even taller than the lizardman by a head.

Not only that, Midi also clearly remembered that this half-giant was one of the younger brothers of Ice Hand and Blood Hand, the one who yelled the loudest in yesterday's verbal confrontation.

"Go and kill him, don't show mercy." Bingshou gave instructions on the spot without any scruples, his voice was very loud, as if he wanted Midi to hear him on purpose.

"Weak human being, you will be crushed into flesh by me in no time!"

The half-giant's tall body stood in front of Midi like a mountain, blocking his entire vision.

The powerful dark magic power surged from his body, gushing out from all his limbs, filling the entire arena with a suffocating pressure.
