The magic power was very weak, so weak that it was almost negligible. However, it was obvious that Yu Huan could not have sensed it wrong. The real roar coming from those cracks and the faint magic power coming from their bodies fully told Yu Huan that these enemies that were about to appear were not wild beasts of nature, but magical beasts with magic power in their bodies, which were likely to release magic!
“Ho ho ho~~~”
"Ouch~~~"
"Ow~~~"
Finally, amid cheers, more than thirty cracks suddenly opened like doors, and snow-white wolves, pitch-black gorillas, ferocious tigers, snarling black bears... countless beasts broke free from their cages and rushed towards the more than a hundred orcs in front of them. The number was only a rough estimate, and it was not less than the number of orcs present, or even more.
In other words, if you rate the monsters on the scene at this moment, one orc is about to deal with more than one monster... This is when everyone needs to unite. However, having just experienced the killing alone, will the orcs, whose eyes are red, cooperate as expected?
The answer is of course... overthinking!
“Ho ho ho~~~”
The orcs, who also picked up the blood-stained weapons in their hands and had red eyes, roared again and then rushed towards the nearby monsters like crazy.
Orcs and Warcraft both belong to the category of beasts, so their fighting style is extremely simple: that is to use their sharp claws, teeth and powerful beast instincts to win.
However, compared to wild beasts, orcs possess intelligence. Although it is not high, it is enough for them to make weapons, traps and other alternative ways to defeat wild beasts.
Steel is always sharper than claws, and armor is always harder than fur. Only under such circumstances can the orcs possess the powerful strength to completely crush the monsters... However, those were just wild beasts after all, but the orcs present now are facing a group of monsters.
What are Warcraft? Naturally, they are beasts that can wield magic. Although those magical powers are obviously not a concern in the eyes of Yu Huan, a magical girl who can wield nuclear bombs, it is completely different for the beastmen who only know how to wield sharp blades!
"Ouch~~~~"
"Shua~~"
"Ah~~~"
The snow-white frost wolf opened its mouth wide, about to make contact with the lion-man in front of it, but suddenly, dozens of ice blades suddenly spewed out from its mouth, piercing every corner of the lion-man's body without warning. Before he could even let out a scream, the lion-man, with not a single piece of flesh left on his body, was frozen solid... blood-red ice!
"Bang~~~"
Almost at the same time, the pitch-black bear paw slammed down, and without a word, it smashed the lion man into pieces of ice. However, this was not the end, because immediately after this attack, the pitch-black giant bear suddenly stretched out both hands and slammed them hard on the ground.
"Boom boom boom~~~"
With a sound like an earthquake, cracks appeared on the ground. At first, it only made the orcs a little unstable, but they soon stabilized their bodies and continued to charge. However, at the same time, Yu Huan's expression changed slightly, and he jumped out of the ground without thinking.
“Swoosh~Swoosh~Swoosh~~~”
"Ahhhh~~~"
"Wh…what is this?!"
"Don't get close to the cracks, get out of the way!"
"No, don't puff~~"
Sharp stalagmites suddenly shot out from the cracks, and just as Yu Huan left the ground, they extended upwards almost close to her, narrowly passing by her. However, Yu Huan's luck did not mean the orcs' as well. The orcs' bodies were pierced one by one, and blood flowed everywhere. Even if some orcs managed to dodge it by chance, they would face the attack of the approaching monsters in the next second.
Stalagmites, weapons, whirlwinds, flames, flying sand and rocks... violent explosions accompanied by roars, cries for help and screams continued to ring out in the arena. The number of people had obviously been reduced tenfold, but the fierceness of the battle at this moment was obviously even worse than before.
Those who could survive the melee of more than a thousand people were undoubtedly not easy to deal with. Except for a few impulsive ones, almost everyone reacted quickly after the Warcraft released the first round of magic. After dodging the first wave of impact, they immediately began to organize a counterattack.
Warcraft is still Warcraft after all. Even if it possesses magic, its brain is still not very smart. Therefore, after a round of magic attack, it fell into a brief daze. The orcs saw the opportunity and immediately began to fight back.
Magic raged in every corner of the air, and the orcs roared and thrust their weapons, teeth, and claws into the bodies of the monsters one by one. The bloody battle seemed to dye the entire arena red. In such a scene, Yu Huan naturally could not escape death.
"Bang~~~"
"Ouch~~"
The brown earth buffalo fell to the ground with a thud under Yu Huan's fist. He paid no attention to the corpse on the ground and immediately sent a roundhouse kick to the fiery red monkey behind him. He kicked the monkey in the mouth, causing it to swallow the fireball that was about to be in its mouth. Then...
"Boom~~~"
Amidst the violent explosions and flames behind him, Yu Huan landed lightly on the ground. Looking at the seven or eight tall magical beasts that had surrounded him and the magical light that began to shine around them, Yu Huan's originally cherry-pink eyes began to change inadvertently, becoming... as red as blood!
36. Abnormal
How much time has passed?
do not know!
How many times have you thrown a punch?
do not know either!
Is Warcraft still around?
It should still be there!
Is the battle over?
It seems... it's over!
"?!"
At some point, Yu Huan suddenly came back to her senses. Her originally blood-red eyes had unknowingly returned to cherry blossom pink. However, at this moment, she was obviously unaware of the change in her pupils. She just looked around her with a dazed look, then slowly raised her hands and looked over.
His hands were as white as jade, as soft as cotton, and still spotless. This was one of the benefits of the Brave System. Because he was always wrapped in the power of the sacred tree, Yu Huan's body would not be stained by the blood of battle.
However...this is not a reason for her to ignore her surroundings!
The corpses of Warcraft, the corpses of orcs... after a battle that had ended at who knows when, countless corpses were lying on the ground. Some had been disemboweled, some had their parts separated, and some had been completely eaten away, leaving only bloody skeletons, with no recognizable trace of their original appearance.
These were scenes left over from previous battles, the traces of existence left behind by the Warcraft and orcs in the arena after the killing. Above these traces, the only remaining witnesses were a group of orcs who had already collapsed on the ground, licking their wounds... mixed with the blood on their bodies.
The arena will not provide them with medicine to heal their injuries, and once they enter the bonus challenge, they cannot quit at will unless they die. In this case, the only way to survive is to win the game and live to the end to get the bonus!
Although the hope is so slim, those who can reach this last step are obviously not weaklings, and there are only... ten such people in front of Yu Huan at this moment!
The sturdy and strong pig man's hands were wrapped in thick steel, and the parts that should have been claws had long been bent. On those bent blades, one could see not only dark brown blood stains, but also some vomit-inducing colors like red and white.
The thin mink was still crouched in the corner, his cold eyes like an assassin in the night constantly scanning every footstep and every opponent around him. At the same time, to replenish his energy, he kept stuffing food into his mouth... This food was obviously not provided by the arena, but came from the monsters on the ground, or even...
The black panther man who was as strong as an adult and the catwoman in tight adventure leather armor were huddled together in another foot camp. Compared with the others, these two people had obviously less blood on their bodies. Especially the catman, there was almost no blood on his body, only dust and other substances produced by the battle. This situation was somewhat similar to Yu Huan's, which made Yu Huan take a second look.
Looking around, he saw that his team consisted of only ten people, and this was only the number of people left after passing the second level... From a thousand people to ten people, with ten people dead after only two levels, no one would think that the remaining third level would be easy. Therefore, it was no surprise that the eyes of these people were flashing with solemnity and a hint of deathly light, which was a color that only Yu Huan could see.
“Ohhhhhh~~~”
“Ohhhhhh~~~”
“Ohhhhhh~~~”
The cheers continued, they were the hysterical shouts from the surrounding spectators. The previous bloody battle had obviously aroused their greatest enthusiasm. The bloody battle was always the (orc) people's favorite carnival. That's right... in their eyes, it seemed as if the people who had died before were not their own people, but just tools for entertainment.
Blood and killing, yes, these are the best wine and banquet for those sitting in the arena!
"So... is the second level considered over?"
Yu Huan muttered this question to herself, knowing that it was already over. However, precisely because she knew it, she felt that this moment was so... unreal!
Yes, it is unreal... He had clearly experienced battles, he had clearly experienced killing, he had clearly killed countless monsters with his own hands, he had even torn apart the claws and teeth of countless sneak-attack monsters, he had even once directly sent his fist directly into the opponent's brain, and then he watched the opponent die before he mercilessly threw him away, and then he took advantage of the situation to punch a bloodthirsty orc beside him and sent him flying.
Everything about the battle was so clear, so vivid, yet Yu Huan surprisingly did not feel any disgust or nausea. Instead, he only felt a strong sense of unreality.
"Did I really do this?"
There is no doubt that Yu Huan also clearly remembers how he looked when he was fighting just now, and even remembers every move he used from Xiao Ya's teaching, every attack and dodge. Without a doubt, these are deeply engraved in Yu Huan's memory like images, even in his physical memory.
It was natural that all of this was done by her. The broken bodies of monsters on the ground around her, the remains of monsters and even... the corpses of orcs, all of these, without exception, died at the hands of Yu Huan.
but……
"Who just now... no, just now... what happened to me?"
That was not his own thought, although he had a clear consciousness; that was not his own killing, although it was indeed him who ruthlessly reaped the lives of those around him; that was not his own memory, although it was also imprinted in his mind like an engraving.
It was as if... there was someone there, not controlling his body, but just giving him a small push from behind as if to add fuel to the fire while he was fighting, or just whispering softly in his ear.
"Go fight, go kill, taste more life...end!"
Then at that instant, Yu Huan felt... his blood burning, his thoughts becoming uncontrollably violent, his limbs and body seemed to be infused with endless energy, and he was eager to vent it out, to spread the fire in his heart that had ignited at some point in time to all directions around him, and to ruthlessly burn all the enemies within his sight.
Fighting, burning... At that moment, his eyes turned blood red, and Yu Huan... lost control!
37. Darkness is a must for the protagonist?!
(Xiao Yu is really not good at writing about state of mind, but I want to lay a foreshadowing, so... please bear with me!)
There is something wrong with my body!
This was the fact that Yu Huan clearly felt and discovered after the battle, and the evidence for this fact did not come from his strange state during the second battle, but when after the second battle, Yu Huan returned to the lounge and casually took out a mirror and saw himself... behind!
Thread, pure white thread, that was originally Yuhuan's unique thread, representing Yuhuan's pure heart and spotless spirit. It was the most innocent and purest color, like a newborn baby, which had not yet been dyed into colorful colors by the complicated world and human hearts.
However, under this color, there were indeed some tiny changes at this moment... It was really small, so small that it was almost invisible, just like the slightest change like a hair in the dazzling incandescent light. However, it was such a subtle change that could not be more subtle, but it actually appeared in Yu Huan's eyes and was noticed by her.
Bright red as blood, black as ink, lines that seemed to be watered by blood and darkness were attached to the pure white silk thread, like a reflection under the light, although not obvious, but it would never disappear!
When did the lines appear?
Yu Huan doesn’t know!
How did it come about?
Yu Huan didn’t even know!
What do even these tiny lines represent?
Yu Huan still doesn’t know!
Everything is unknown. The only thing Yu Huan can be sure of is that his previous battle was obviously directly related to this thin black and red thread.
She wasn't a bloodthirsty person, yet she had been killing since she came to this world. Although it wasn't her original intention, Yu Huan found that she felt absolutely no resentment or guilt. Even though she had taken someone's life with her own hands, even after experiencing such a bloody battlefield, she was able to accept it all so calmly.
Of course she felt disgusted, of course she felt it was cruel, of course she felt that what she did was not the right thing to do, but she took it as a matter of course and accepted it.
Yu Huan obviously couldn't figure out what was going on with her. She finally shook her head and could only choose to forget about it temporarily. After all, although she felt okay, her subconscious told her that this inexplicable change didn't seem to do any harm to her. So after sitting in the lounge for a while, Yu Huan packed up and walked out.
When Yu Huan came out again, the arena with only ten people left had shrunk from the size of two football fields to the size of one football field. Although the venue was shrunk, it was still a little empty because there were only ten people left on the field. This was obviously the venue for the third level. As for the content of the third level... Yu Huan didn't know.
Not only her, the other nine people were also looking at each other warily. Except for the two leopard men and catwoman who were still standing there as if nothing had happened, everyone else kept a distance from the people around them intentionally or unintentionally; this made Yu Huan take another look at the leopard man and catwoman over there.
Those who have survived until now and are standing here are undoubtedly people with strong strength and firm minds. After all, trust is definitely the biggest death warrant in such a chaotic battlefield. In such a situation, even with Yu Huan's temper, it is impossible for him to trust others casually, let alone fight side by side with anyone... If Sang also came, it would be a different story.
However, the Leopard Man and Catwoman, who were just a few dozen meters away from him, seemed to have no such worries at all. They leaned against the wall like strangers, seemingly having no connection with each other. However, their unintentional actions of being alert to their surroundings but turning their backs to each other without reservation were enough to prove the trust that existed between them.
"It's great to have a companion!"
She made such an exclamation, but since she was the one participating in this competition, Yu Huan was only a little envious and did not pay too much attention to her. Instead, she looked towards the platform above the arena and waited silently for the arrival of the third level with everyone else.
"Curious? Very curious, right? Curious. After all the fighting between humans and monsters, and between humans and monsters, what will happen next?"
"Disappointed? Of course I am! Disappointed that there are only ten people left on the field. It seems impossible to put on a bloody and exciting match!"
"Then... don't worry, don't be disappointed, because what you will see next will be... the birth of a legend!"
"Of course, the premise is that they can survive the next battle!"
It has to be said that the ratman standing on the high platform at the top of the arena at this moment is obviously very talented in livening up the atmosphere. With his excited voice, the popularity that seemed to have weakened suddenly exploded in the next second. The shouts one after another turned into sound waves and rushed into the ears of Yu Huan and others. However, the ten people seemed to have not heard them and just looked at the ratman at the top in unison, waiting for him to announce the content of the third level of the competition.
However, the Rat Man, contrary to expectations, did not make his announcement as direct as before, catching everyone off guard. Instead, he looked at Yu Huan and the others for the first time. After lingering for a while at Yu Huan, Black Panther, and Catwoman who were not far away, he suddenly spoke:
"Ahem~ Because there was a minor incident with the opponent needed for the third stage, after discussion with the higher-ups, we've decided to replace him. However, the replacement opponent is a bit...powerful!"
In other words, the already difficult third level will become even more difficult here. As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of everyone except Yu Huan changed slightly. On the contrary, Yu Huan stood there nonchalantly. After all, the system had already scouted it out. The highest level of combat power in this world was only S-level. Although Yu Huan's own strength was only A-level, it was obviously a very simple matter for him to deal with an opponent in the arena!
Of course, although Yu Huan didn't care, it didn't mean that others didn't care. Just when the fat orc with a toad face seemed to be about to ask, he heard the rat man speak again the next second:
"Of course, in view of this, this arena has decided to make an exception and allow begging for mercy. After the battle begins, you only need to hold on for ten minutes before you can actively beg for mercy. Those who beg for mercy can leave the battlefield on their own, but they will also lose their qualification to challenge!"
In other words, the difficulty has increased, but at the same time, an option to exit has been given, which is obviously a good way out for those who originally had no choice but to fight to the death.
38. A beast in the shape of a dragon!
Agreeing was almost a no-brainer. After all, this was the arena's territory. Yu Huan and the others had already signed a life and death agreement, so even if they wanted to refuse, it would obviously not be an easy task. Therefore, they had no choice but to agree to the arena's request... At least it left themselves a way out. Although no one showed interest in this before the real battle began, Yu Huan vaguely noticed the slight relief in the expressions of several of them.
Then, after they nodded in agreement, the final boss of the third level finally appeared. And how can I describe the behemoth that appeared...it actually had some connection with Yu Huan!
Do you remember what Yu Huan first discovered when she first arrived in this world, completely clueless? It wasn't the Walled City...and certainly not Sang. The little girl had come to her own door!
It was a footprint, a huge footprint. The hole left by the footprint was big enough for Yu Huan to use as a bed.
Originally, Yu Huan was following the footprints and thought that the other party was her target: the Beast King. However, after finding the city, Yu Huan immediately gave up this idea. At the same time, she also lost her enthusiasm for the huge mysterious creature that she had been tracking all the way. Of course, she was still curious about whether that thing was a dragon.
It's a pity that because he was busy looking for clues to the mission, Yu Huan later neglected to track down the other party. When Yu Huan realized it later, there was no trace of the other party.
