Chapter 22 The Competition Begins
The sound of the bell was deafening.
As the bell rang, overwhelming cheers rang out from the mist-shrouded stands.
Bloodthirsty roars and shrill screams were also mixed in with the cheers.
The huge crystal hourglass in the sky starts timing as it swings backwards.
The shimmering sand passes through the leak, and a luminous line of sand falls toward the bottom.
Although the fallen sand grains remained at the bottom, the shimmering light attached to them continued to slide downward.
The shimmering light fell in the middle of the arena, intertwining and solidifying.
It condensed into a faceless man about 2 meters tall, with a tall and thin body, and the joints of its limbs seemed to be movable.
Holding two daggers in both arms, he staggered towards Kane.
A puppet construct?
Kane didn't hesitate and shook his wrist directly at it.
Two spider threads wound around the puppet's legs.
Pull hard
The puppet fell down in response, raising a puff of smoke and dust.
The fallen puppet used his mechanically stiff limbs to struggle to stand up, but the joints of his legs were tied together by the spider silk just now, making his already stiff movements even more mechanical.
It's so weird, so weak?
Although the figure of the puppet is thin, it is made of steel after all.
Kane didn't exert much force at all, but the puppet fell down.
But now we are in a battle. Since we have fallen, we should leave quietly.
The magic power was released, and a transparent bow appeared in his hand.
He bent his bow and aimed an arrow at the puppet who was struggling to get up on the ground.
Transparent arrows pierced the sky and pierced the puppet's head.
The puppet, which had just adjusted its position and was about to stand up, was knocked upside down by the force of the arrow. A hole suddenly appeared on the smooth face without facial features on its head, and dark liquid flowed down the smooth face.
The puppet seemed to have a short circuit, the joints of its limbs twitched for a while, and then stopped completely as if it was out of power.
But the body didn't disappear.
Why?
Forget it, never mind, more puppets gathered on the arena.
This time, 5 puppets appeared directly in the open space, 2 holding shields, 2 holding guns, and the last one holding a crossbow.
Reasonable classic configuration.
But if they are still as weak as the puppets just now, having a few more will only give them a little more flying power.
Kane still launched the attack first this time.
He waved his hand and threw out a large web of spider silk. A ball of spider silk shot out from his wrist and then spread out in mid-air. The tough spider web stuck firmly to the four melee puppets in front of him.
The gun-wielding puppet, which was half a step behind, was caught in the net and tried to break free. The force of the backward breakaway pulled the shield-wielding puppet in front of him down, and he was also crushed to the ground.
The disorderly struggle of the four puppets caused the spider web to wrap them up perfectly.
However, Kane did not immediately touch up the puppet that had fallen to the ground. Instead, he bent his bow and fired a flurry of arrows at the person holding the crossbow.
Remote output should be given priority.
The long-range puppet was slowly loading the crossbow, not caring whether the teammates in front could keep themselves safe.
A sudden impact interrupted his movements.
Three holes appeared directly on the head, and some fine pieces of iron flew out along with the black liquid.
Seeing that his attack hit the target, Kane directly used magic power to create a sledgehammer in the air.
He rushed towards the melee puppet who was still struggling in place.
With the help of tempered steel, the transparent sledgehammer is like a heavy hammer to the enemy.
Kane can swing it easily because the weight of the hammer seems to be inflated to Kane.
The four puppets in front were trapped by spider webs, and they were still waving their mechanical arms in an attempt to break free.
Kane was not polite.
Aim at the two shield-holding puppets at the front with a powerful swing of the hammer.
The cobwebs dissipated at this moment, and the puppet tried to avoid it, but it was already too late.
The two puppets were directly connected to each other with their shields, and were smashed into the air.
The puppet in mid-air used its thin body to withstand the huge impact, let alone the shield in its hand.
The puppet that fell to the ground had long lost its human form, and was surrounded by parts scattered in the air.
Just like a assembled Gundam that was thrown out, it was smashed to pieces on the ground.
Kane ignored the two puppets that flew out.
Instead, he hit the other two puppets who were getting up and smashed them down from top to bottom.
The impact brought by the huge hammer hit them hard.
There was a heart-wrenching sound, and the two puppets were smashed to the ground without any resistance, causing a puff of smoke and dust.
Because it was a transparent hammer, the miserable condition of the two puppets was clearly visible, like Lego toys that had been smashed to the ground and stepped on hard.
Without the main body, only the parts are left.
Violent cheers came from the surrounding viewing seats.
It seems that he was stimulated by such cruel methods.
The voice exuded bloodthirsty and cruelty.
Such cheers are really jarring.
I feel like I'm being admired like a wild beast.
What a nasty sound.
Slowly retreat to the seat where you were, quietly waiting for the next wave.
This time the hourglass did not rush to cast the light, but waited for a while before continuing.
It's really considerate to give people some time to rest.
A powerless beast cannot bring about a wonderful performance.
The blue glimmer fell again.
The strong figure of more than 3 meters tall is gathering.
The thick armor on his body began to solidify, and the puppet carrying two giant axes appeared in full view.
It had just revealed itself, holding the ax in its hands, striding forward, and rushing towards Kane.
It seems like the opponent is attacking first this time.
Kane stood there without worrying, but raised his spear towards the giant ax puppet.
The giant ax puppet raised the ax vigorously, preparing to chop Kane's head as soon as he got close.
Of course, if he can get close.
With a loud bang, the charge of the giant ax puppet was interrupted, and he hit the air hard.
The shock waves are visible to the naked eye in the air.
Withstanding such an impact, the air wall was broken up for the first time.
Of course, the giant ax puppet also paid a corresponding price. Part of his outer armor was directly knocked apart, exposing the fragile parts inside.
For such reckless enemies who like to go straight, air walls always work well.
But the opportunity Kane has been waiting for is just around the corner.
Step forward, raise your waist, hold the spear in your hand tightly with both hands: cover the sky.
Concentrate all your strength on this attack.
A sharp stab at the puppet that had been marked with the traitor's mark.
The ultimate penetrating power and unprotected flanks make it possible to cover the sky without any obstruction.
just a moment
The white spear tip penetrated all the way and finally protruded from the back of the puppet's head.
The tip of the gun was still stained with a black liquid that looked like engine oil.
Draw out the spear
The giant ax puppet knelt on the ground, supporting its body with its double axe, while liquid and metal fragments spurted out from the huge holes.
"I don't know if you understand, but you're not strong enough."
Swing the gun barrel to spill the black liquid on it.
