After the archive is damaged, I live in another world

Bang!

He slammed the door shut and left.

Xu Mu had a blank expression on his face as he took out the latest volume of "The Magic Princess Manipulator" and began to read it silently.

Chapter 48 #048 Breaking into the Library

In the Adventurer Cup main competition, the two games in the left half will be played first.

About ten minutes later, the staff member reappeared and said, "Contestant Canglan, your match is your second today. The first match has already begun. I'll take you to the waiting area."

"Thank you."

The two walked one in front and one behind towards the entrance where the contestants would enter.

On the way, the commentator's voice came: "The battle has begun, the battle has begun, and the first to attack is Scissor Man! It's a lightning triple scissor!"

Click, click, click!

Three thunderous sniping sounds came through the walls of the passage.

Upon hearing the noise, the staff member excitedly said, "So strong! Looks like a fierce fight! Canglan, how about we hurry up? The battle has already started over there."

Xu Mu had no objection: "Okay."

"Nice lightning triple scissors! Coach Sun, the Scissor Man seems to be much stronger than in the regional competition. Is this my illusion?"

Another mature and steady voice echoed, "It wasn't an illusion. Scissor Man's attack just now was incredibly aggressive and truly remarkable! I suspect he's betting all his chances of victory on this one strike. The potion he drank beforehand must have been something like 'Final Battle' or 'Victory or Defeat', which significantly strengthens the player for a short period of time. However... Frosha is incredibly agile, and even Scissor Man's attack, which surpassed his limits, was ineffective. It seems the suspense of this battle has already ended—"

"Ohhh! What happened? Scissorman fell down! Unbelievable!"

Before Coach Sun finished speaking, the commentator's voice sounded again.

"Amazing! Scissor Man was killed with a single sword strike. His defeat was so sudden! Froza proved his ability with a clean and decisive fight, telling everyone that there are experts among the judicial and law enforcement teams! Coach Sun, what did you think of that sword strike?"

"It's truly astonishing. It seems many people misjudged him before the match. Froza is a strong contender for the championship..."

Barbara.

Barbara.

"Ah! It's over..."

The staff clapped their hands in frustration, seeming to be very regretful.

In comparison, Xu Mu was a little surprised - that day, he had a fight with Frosha.

From what I felt at the time, Froza's abilities weren't particularly impressive. The Adventurer's Cup was fairly strong, so he shouldn't be able to just walk around in it.

While he was thinking, Frosha came down from the arena and passed by Xu Mu. The old man was very friendly and nodded with a smile.

In this regard.

Xu Mu remained indifferent.

The previous match ended quickly and without much noise. The arena's maintenance staff simply cleaned the field, and the host stepped forward and said, "The first match ended with lightning speed. Let's cheer for the winner, the Military Police Buddha—Losha! Next up is the second round of the day. Let's welcome contestant number three, the Blue Bandit!"

The staff member gestured and said, "Contestant Canglan, it's your turn! I wish you success!"

"I accept your good words."

Xu Mu straightened his clothes, walked out of the passage and went to the duel cabin.

During this process, the whole audience——

Silence!

To be honest, out of enthusiasm and goodwill, the audience will not hesitate to applaud and cheer even for contestants whose names they have never heard of.

but……

The mask on Xu Mu's head was really too weird.

There was some applause at the beginning, but after Xu Mu appeared, the applause gradually became sparse, and then there was complete silence.

"Puchi-"

No one knew who laughed first, but a lot of discussion suddenly broke out!

Xu Mu looked around and saw everyone pointing at him...

brute.

We'll turn this place into a library later.

Although most of the audience were just there to watch the fun and had no prior knowledge of the details of the regional competition, there were still some enthusiasts among them.

A man looked on and sneered, "A bunch of ignorant outsiders! You know nothing, and you come here to see what's going on? The Blue Bandits are definitely top-tier in terms of strength, and should not be underestimated!"

Someone beside him heard this and laughed, "Brother, I agree with you. But... the monster is different from the Scissor Man. He's also a strong man! I think the outcome of this battle is still uncertain."

VIP room.

"Aha……"

Anya yawned and looked at the blue bandit who slowly entered the room: "Oh. It's him..."

Violet gave him a questioning look. “Anya, do you know him?”

"Yeah. I went to the regional tournament a while ago and met him."

"How strong is he?"

"Hmm? I don't know. I didn't see him make a move."

"That's it..."

Anya slept very late last night and was dragged by her teacher to watch the game early this morning. Of course, she felt a little reluctant and confused.

She looked at Violet and asked, “Teacher, why are you interested in the Adventurer’s Cup?”

Violet smiled. “It was just a whim. Seeing the young and powerful men fight would be good for you.”

what……

Anya tilted her head, looking uninterested.

Seeing Xu Mu standing next to the duel cabin, the host said again: "Now, let's welcome contestant number four! Known as the 'Wild Beast', the favorite contestant of this Freedom Cup, the leader of the Wild Adventure Group, Weird Weird Weird - Beast!"

Oh oh oh.

Woo woo woo.

A strange cry rang out amid the applause. It was the members of the Wild Adventure Group building up momentum.

The huge body of the monster appeared from another passage. He was wearing a silver helmet, a red cloak on his shoulders, a golden belt around his waist, and a two-handed sword as big as a door panel across his hips.

Just this look.

That's the momentum.

what?

In comparison, Xu Mu is simply here to make people laugh. This is what a warrior should be.

The monster was obviously very accustomed to the arena. After he entered, instead of standing obediently next to the duel cabin, he ran around the arena and kept greeting the audience.

This sensational act heated up the atmosphere, and the audience's cheers grew louder and louder. The members of the Wild Adventure Team also shouted a unified slogan at this moment: "Monster! Victory! Monster! Victory!"

Ugh……

Xu Mu held onto the duel cabin with his hands and waited patiently.

After a while, the monster finally stopped in front of the duel cabin. He looked at Xu Mu from afar, raised his chin, and made a beheading gesture.

strong.

The host saw the contestants take their places and announced, "Please drink the potion, both contestants."

Tons tons tons.

Xu Mu drank "Sage Time" and "Boiling Blood Potion".

His mind became clear and his health slowly decreased.

The monster opposite also took out three or five bottles of potion and drank them down with a gulp - this guy's potion seemed to be specially made and the quantity was particularly large.

Think about it too.

With his height of 2.5 meters, the dosage should be different from that of ordinary people.

The host continued, "Please enter the duel chamber, both contestants! The second round of the Adventurer's Cup quarterfinals begins immediately!"

Xu Mu lay in the duel chamber, feeling the rising level of the blue liquid.

He slowly closed his eyes, and then—

Soul out of the body.

Chapter 49 #049 I don’t understand the explanation

"Both players have entered the Holy Spirit state, and the match will begin soon. Coach Sun, what are your thoughts on this match?"

"I'm personally very much looking forward to this match. Some viewers may have watched the recordings of the regional tournament. Both Blue Bandit and Monster were the big winners in their respective regions, each winning with an undeniable and enormous advantage. Therefore, this duel is sure to be a formidable clash, and I'm confident these two players won't disappoint us."

The commentator nodded and agreed, "Indeed. According to the data center's analysis report, Blue Bandit has achieved an unprecedented and likely unmatched feat—he won the regional tournament without using any skills! This feat speaks volumes about his formidable strength!"

wow——

As soon as he finished speaking, cheers broke out from the audience.

After hearing this, Anya perked up a bit: "Winning the championship without any skills... Teacher, is this considered strong?"

Violet remained calm and said only two words: "Very strong."

Coach Sun responded, "Yes, Blue Bandit is a very competitive player, but according to the data center's report, he also has a clear weakness: his rapid depletion of mental energy. If Monster had studied the report, he would have taken targeted measures."

Bang!

While the commentary and instructions were warming up the audience, a flare was fired into the sky.

Game start.

The players at both ends of the field did not take action immediately. Xu Mu stepped on the yellow sand with a calm expression.

The Holy Spirit Duel is an away game.

During the game, the Hades Fighter's "Dark Rebirth" will not take effect. If his mental strength runs out, he will lose immediately.

but.

The strength of the Hades Fighter lies in his inhuman attributes that rival those of the Demon King. Do you want to kill Xu Mu?

Let’s break through his almost ironclad defense first!

Xu Mu didn't think that the "monster" in front of him could pose a threat to him, even though he looked very strong.

only--

In order to win other games more smoothly, Xu Mu did not plan to just do it blindly. He wanted to be undefeated and win, and he had already planned how to play the first game.

corresponding.

The monster on the other side would not give up victory. He raised his door-panel-wide broadsword, held it across his body, and said, "Blue Bandit, you are very strong. It will not be easy to defeat you."

Xu Mu laughed and said, "I think that's impossible."

"...Don't be so complacent, take a look at this first!"

hum!

A strange roar sounded, and a dark green light emanated from the monster's golden belt, spreading throughout the entire venue!

"Here it comes! It's the withering force field!"

Xu Mu didn't understand what this was, and the monster didn't explain either.

But there were still some discerning people at the scene. Coach Sun stood up and shouted excitedly, "That's right! The Blue Bandit is a formidable opponent, but he has flaws! His flaw is his lack of mental strength! The Monster player has indeed come prepared. Audience, this green light is 'Withered Stand', a field magic that accelerates the consumption of mental strength! The Blue Bandit is in danger!"
