Chapter 1255: Icy Seal
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Hundred Gold Wood’s stun effect was dismissed the moment the [Rising Dragon Fist] was executed. Hundred Gold Wood stomped his foot on the ground and Universe Desolate was sent flying.
Following which, Hundred Gold Wood raised his shield and smashed it towards the ground onto Universe Desolate’s body. Universe Desolate couldn’t avoid it in time as he was smashed firmly.
“Boom!”
Universe Desolate was smashed to the ground by the shield as a coil symbol appeared above his head.
Hundred Gold Wood raised his shield with both hands and smashed it towards the ground once more.
“Boom!”
A loud sound could be heard as the ground trembled and the shield landed on Universe Desolate’s waist.
At the same time, a row of words appeared above Hundred Gold Wood’s head – [Profound. Desperate Broken Dragon Stump.
The simple-looking smash was actually an awakening skill.
Universe Desolate’s HP was immediately decreased by a third and was trapped on the ground by Hundred Gold Wood’s heavy shield.
With one foot firmly locked on Universe Desolate’s head, he slowly pulled out a single-handed sword from his waist to stab it through Universe Desolate’s neck.
Universe Desolate was a fragile Pugilist and was one who deviated towards the more nimble type. He was naturally not going to be able to withstand blows from a player like Hundred Gold Wood so he was turned into a white light soon after.
When the spectators saw how quickly Universe Desolate was killed, they couldn’t help but gasp.
This was the true way of a bold and powerful Guardian in which all jobs with weak defenses wouldn’t be able to escape death once trapped by a Guardian.
One could also say that Boundless Ocean was smart and fortunate enough to guess that Black Sky Yellow Earth would send Universe Desolate up for this round. It was probably the reason why he sent out Hundred Gold Wood.
After killing his opponent, Hundred Gold Wood smiled as he jumped off the platform.
The other members of Kyushu Squad looked unperturbed as though they had already expected this victory.
They were not arrogant, not hot-tempered and looked extremely unflustered by the occasion. They truly had the aura of the number one squad in the country.
When Black Sky Yellow Earth realised that he had lost the second match, he pointed at Boundless Ocean agitatedly, “Despicable fella, do you dare to fight me solo in the third match?”
“Sure!” Boundless Ocean smiled faintly as usual.
“You’re a b*stard if you lie again!” Black Sky Yellow Earth pointed his middle finger.
Boundless Ocean nodded, “Sure!”
Following which, Boundless Ocean clicked on his choice.
Even though Black Sky Yellow Earth wanted to win, he was unwilling to be a b*stard so he selected himself.
The white light flashed as the two players were transported to the platform.
Black Sky Yellow Earth was a professional Warrior and a dual-wielding one. The sword on each of his hand was emitting alluring radiances.
A dual-wielding Warrior was a common classification among Warriors. One had to be proficient in the dual-wielding talent at level 40 to activate it.
In terms of attacks, two swords were much stronger than a single sword but it was also much more difficult to control two swords.
After all, <<REBIRTH>> was a virtual reality game which was vastly different from ordinary online games.
In <<REBIRTH>>, the usage of weapons required a certain level of skills too.
Two swords meant two different stratagems simultaneously and the level of difficulty was not just twice using a single sword.
It was already not an easy feat for an ordinary Warrior to coordinate well with one sword, let alone two. Even a martial arts prodigy like Wang Yu wouldn’t find it easy to manage two swords. Even if he did choose to use two swords, he would choose to use one long and one short sword for attack and defence respectively. The fact that Black Sky Yellow Earth dared to play this specific job meant that he probably had an immense innate talent for it.
On the other hand, Boundless Ocean was a Magician.
This fella had a pretty decent demeanor and his attitude was tranquil and calm. He was emitting an aura of self-confidence especially with his sky blue robe and faint blue staff. Standing there, he really did have the outlook of a king.
In terms of jobs, a Magician would have the advantage over a Warrior. However, a small arena like this might not favour a long-distance job like the Magician.
In order to win the competition, Black Sky Yellow Earth really did not care about his pride anymore. To think that he would actually call out a Magician to fight in such a small space.
Of course, a competition was similar to life. Once someone cared about saving pride, half the battle would have been lost.
...
When these two enemies met, anger flashed through Black Sky Yellow Earth’s eyes as he recalled how Boundless Ocean made him a reserve back then. Additionally, he also lost to Boundless Ocean’s squad over the past few years. Therefore, he was incredibly self-motivated and excited to exchange blows with Boundless Ocean now.
The match begins!
Black Sky Yellow Earth called out arrogantly, “Hey! You will definitely not be champion this time!”
“Really?” Boundless Ocean smiled, “Don’t tell me you’re going to be the champion?”
“Of course!” Black Sky Yellow Earth lowered his head and charged towards Boundless Ocean with a sword in the front and back.
Naturally, Boundless Ocean was not a weakling. He pointed his staff to the ground when he saw Black Sky Yellow Earth charging towards him, “[Ice Mirror]!”
At the same time, the cold air rose.
“Ka ka!”
A layer of ice appeared beneath Black Sky Yellow Earth’s feet.
“Haha!” Black Sky Yellow Earth jumped up as he laughed, “You fell for it!”
Following which, Black Sky Yellow Earth executed [Charge] in mid-air. In a blink of an eye, he appeared right beside Boundless Ocean and swung his sword towards his body.
“Dang...”
Boundless Ocean broke into pieces.
[Ice Clone]!
After executing his [Ice Clone], Boundless Ocean retreated immediately.
After missing his strike, Black Sky Yellow Earth thought that Boundless Ocean would appear behind him for an ambush so he quickly turned around. However, Boundless Ocean appeared on the other side of Black Sky Yellow Earth as he pointed his staff to the ground, “Whirlpool!”
Following that, the ice beneath Black Sky Yellow Earth’s feet turned into a pool of water which quickly turned into a whirlpool. Black Sky Yellow Earth was directly absorbed by it.
Black Sky Yellow Earth was struggling to get out but in the end, the more he struggled, the deeper he sunk. It didn’t take long for him to be left with only a head above water.
“Haha! I guess you’re the one who fell for it!”
Boundless Ocean laughed when he saw that Black Sky Yellow Earth was only left with a head above ground but was still trying to climb out. He swung his staff towards the ground and said, “Icy Seal!”
“Ka ka ka!”
After a series of terrifying sounds, the whirlpool on the ground turned into ice. Black Sky Yellow Earth, who was stuck inside, lost all ability to fight back.
“Hua!!”
The spectators burst into cheers.
Initially, they thought this fight between the leader of the number one and number two squads in the country would end up in a 300-blow fight. Who would have thought that Black Sky Yellow Earth was frozen by Boundless Ocean in this manner less than half a minute into the match?
The difference in strength between the two of them was simply too vast.
It was no wonder people always mentioned that Kyushu Squad was number one only because that was the highest possible ranking. Great Desolate Squad was second because they only had the strength of a number two...
Even Ming Du couldn’t help but exclaim, “Only Boundless Ocean could think of using [Icy Seal] like that.”
[Icy Seal] was a sealing magic skill and even though it was capable of freezing the opponent, the frozen opponent couldn’t be attacked.
Boundless Ocean was smart in the sense that he trapped his target using the whirlpool first. After which, he used [Icy Seal] on the ground so that he could expose a part of his opponent for him to attack.
Indeed, there was always an advantage in having an intelligent brain even in games.
