"Ahahaha…" I laughed callously "Hahahaha, I’m not scared I’m not scared! Hahaha!"
"Looks like Prince is really scared…" Ugly Wolf looked helplessly atmaniacally in a corner for a while now
"Well, he’s always been the one who slaughters everyone in his path Now that the time for retribution has arrived, obviously he’d be scared!" Lolidragon responded indifferently
"What do we do, then? With things like this, how are we going to compete?" Yu Lian asked, her voice filled with anxiety "Don’t tellto have to forfeit!"
"Haha, it’s okay; don’t worry about him Prince has always been like this! He’s routinely scared half to death before the fight, but once the battle actually commences, he’ll become their most enthusiastic opponent by far Don’t worry, don’t worry!" Lolidragon replied, laughing heartily
"Is that so…?"
"It’s ti that, I stood up and turned, holding Black Dao in my left hand "It’s time to kill people," I said emotionlessly
I’m not really sure why, but no e to calht of the spectators’ gaze on h I still can’t think of a way to defeat the two dragons using a meat bun and a disobedient fire phoenix…didn’t we still win even though I couldn’t think of a way to defeat a fire phoenix with a ood guys"… (Actually, it’s more like "God looks out for fools, drunks, and little children"!)
As usual, I was the first to enter the arena Hell’s Murderers had only just earbed in a blood-red , a frost-type iant icicles He’s the on explained
"Skewer? So the worst that could happen is that I’d get a hole through uys nearly scared ht he would XXX out my intestines and stuff them into my mouth, Then XXX my heart from my chest as it dripped with blood After that, he would crack round with the soft white brain XXX as it spews froh of relief All that talk about the!
"Your Highness! I beg of you, please don’t say any htfully pale as he listened toher ritted teeth, "If you say any to puke up even my breakfast!"
"Heheh, sorry about that! It’s just that I’ve been watching tooback to the horror otten those ideas frohtered his victi so – as standing across from me – suddenly spoke In an o to turn Odd Squad into a barbequedto skewer each of you one by one and then letto acquaint you with REAL TERROR!"
I in?"
My indifferent attitude seee, and several veins popped on his forehead…
"What’s there to be"Wait until after I XXX open your stomach, XXX out your intestines, and then use them as a rope to tie you up with Then I’ll XXX up your skull, extract your brain, and get Fire Phoenix to roast it into a crisp usingHeaven’s Blazing Flame I’ll XXX it in your mouth and, finally, drench you in a sauce made of your own fresh blood! It won’t be too late for you to be mad then!"
Wahaha, it would be just like the movie I watched the day before yesterday That day, after watching it with my brother, I even deliberately created soh quality tofu that was as white as brain XXX and fresh red beans that were as vibrant as fresh blood, I made red bean tofu soup for him That was the first time in his life my brother skipped dinner…
Was I too evil? Well, who asked hiht that Dark Emperor had already made it past the preliminaries, and were now in the finals? Stupid brother, do you knoveins on Blood-soaked De’s face disappeared without a trace Instead, his face had becohtly He was probably i helplessly as his own brain was sliced up and roasted to a crisp then XXX down his throat, before finally being drenched in his own blood… (I don’t think you’d still be alive by that ti the ed for theft of intellectual property? Or why don’t we…
"Gouge out his eyeballs and stuff them up his ass?" Nope, can’t do that; that was froo
"Bury him alive and then flay his skin?" If I recall correctly, this was one of the tenDynasty!
"Cut off all four li to find a cesspit?
"Carve his flesh slowly off hi flesh from bone"?
"Castration?" …I don’t think he can die fron, that area isn’t a weak spot for attacks…right?
"Stuff my blade up his ass? No, that’d be filthy" How can I sully h "I never realized that co up with new et it, I’ll just pick one of those methods and use it Let’s start! Referee…eh? Where did everyone go?" I looked everywhere around e, I’m the onlyperson left in the whole arena?
"Where’s Blood-soaked De?" I looked at the deserted arena in front of me Our opponents have disappeared? I turned to ask on? Wolf-dàgē? Gui? Dàsăo? Doll? Where have they all disappeared to?"
Just then, an announce syste "Everyone…this is your commentator, Xiao Li As the competitor Prince’s descriptions were siruesome-- BARF …It has caused all of the competitors to flee fro There are still five le member from Hell’s Murderers has returned before the five minutes are up, the victory will be awarded to the team that still has a member in the arena, Odd Squad… BARF"
At this moment, in the restroo loudly as one "Prince, you’re dead meat! BARF"
Thefro back there! BARF"
"BARF Odd Squad, victory!" the referee announced
Standing alone in thein a small voice, "I didn’t do it on purpose…"
I had only just left the arena when Lolidragon approached lint in her eyes "Prince, you’re DEAD MEAT!"
"You caused rave;săo said, and her terrifying shadowy se, Doll is very scared!"
Scared? If you’re truly frightened, why is the expression on your face reet that delicious roasted ht of you as a younger brother…" said Wolf-dàgē
Then please don’t wave your twowarē, don’t you kno huhtered by a priest using sheer brute force?
"Your Highness…" Gui looked worried
Seeing that a dagger, twodown on ically cry out, "Gui, save hurt, Gui ihness!"
A small brawl ensued, in which fists and feet were not the only things used -- even slippers, forks, and knives ca my way I hid beneath Gui, protected securely by his body, narrowly escaping the storer bore any resee, why isn’t he dead yet? Actually, co spells have been leveling up largely because of Gui’s "assistance" In my heart, I silently vowed not to beat Gui up too badly next tion panted, worn out froht
"How is that true? You had an enjoyable ti someone into a pulp, I didn’t have to endure any pain, and Gui’s masochisle stone, so why not? Hahaha" I really a, heh heh!
"I wonder why the tourna, I want to eat"
A moment before, the system had broadcasted out of the blue that the tournao see the with us…
Don’t tellto count our victory just now? Do we have to fight again? I don’t want to… I’ve already been dealt with so harshly by my team members If they nullify our victory, I will really use the tendynasty on the tournament committee members
"You really love to eat It on suddenly realized that she had rave;săo and Doll
"…A girl’s dreaon! I let out a relieved sigh
"Wolf is back!" Yu Lian-dàsăo had spotted hih Everyone, I have soē furrowed his brows together "We still have to fight one ry…
"To be precise, we have twenty more minutes"
"Gui…" We all looked worriedly at Gui, as lying on the ground like a misshapen luē said, before adding, "These injuries are nothing compared to the ones he receives when Prince beats him up"
…I pretended not to hear that
"Spirit Spirit Tea twice in a row is because we’re one of the last re teams in the preliminaries The tournament corave;gē said, his voice troubled
"The da information about our opponents out of random passersbys However, our opponents know exactly what they’re up against, since they probably saw everything that transpired in our previous match The situation is clearly very unfavorable for us"
"Bat’s beri unhayeraber hor arshe," I said indistinctly through a ht not be true Luckily for us, there was no fighting at all during the match just now, so at rave;săo said with a co smile
"I hope that’s true…"
In the arena…
"Those are…our opponents?" I forced ē’s broere knitted even ether than before
"Are you serious? You’re saying that flower, that blade of grass, that tree, that rock, that pool of water, plus so that we can’t see – they’re our opponents?" The corner of ht, Isn’t this a bit over-the-top?
"No wonder they’re called Spirit Spirit Tearass spirit, a tree spirit, a rock spirit, a water spirit, and a wind spirit This is bad; spirits have ories and their abilities vary widely Plus, very few players choose to play as spirits We have never encountered a player of the spirit race before, so our knowledge of theh battle," Lolidragon explained worriedly
"Sigh! And here I was, thinking I could try repeating the horrifying descriptions I used during the last fight, but now…" I sighed "Lolidragon, do you think it/he/she/they will have intestines for uess After all, we still have to fight anyway," I said I didn’t really care whoposition, readying ht Let’s wipe the floor with theh wildly and unsheathed my Black Dao The last in!
The mo to get rid of one or two of the opponents first However, I suddenly discovered that so lanced at rass for rass with my dao, but just as I was about to clirass suddenly sprouted all around rass had twined aboutme immobilized
"Prince!" Odd Squad’s ē rushed forward to where I was and began to yank at the hindering grass while Doll directed her skeletons to cover us Lolidragon -- who had been about to burroards the opponents -- ran over as well, desperately hacking away at the grass with her dagger
As I struggled, I saw that the rock spirit was charging at us from the corner of et about me -- quick, defend yourselves!"
"Skeletons, hurry forward to shield them!" Doll hastily dispatched her skeletons to bar the rock spirit’s path However, with each sweep of its thick branches, the tree spirit next to it easily sent a skeleton flying Although it wasn’t enough to destroy the skeletons, the attack hindered their led to crawl back on their feet
Seeing the hefty tree spirit surge forward, Yu Lian i back to the Spirit Spirit Team The rock spirit was unaffected, however, and instead threw a punch at Doll Intent on pushing Doll out of harē was struck by the heavy blow Even with his large fraē was sent flying
"Wolf…!" Yu Lian-dàsăo cried out in alar Skeletons! Quick! Fall back to defend everyone!" Doll urgently coainst the rock spirit’s onslaught
"Gui! Berserk Melody! Hurry up and cast Berserk Melody!" I bellowed
"Right," Gui replied, i Berserk Melody on th increase With a heroic effort, I struggled and finallySword!" I sliced, hewed, cleaved, stabbed, slashed – in mere morass ensaring ently towards the rock spirit…
Suddenly, a pillar of water ca up in front of me Surprised, I took a hurried step back Unfortunately, having no eyes in the back of my head, I did not see the second pillar of water behind th of the current in the one behind er than the one in front I was trapped
"AHHH!" I was immediate swept away by the currents Just as I was about to be washed right out of the arena, I stabbedon for dear life, Iflushed out of the arena However, as soon as the water receded, I found rass
This is darass, only to be washed away to the edge of the arena; when the torrent of water finally stopped, I’d once rass…
In the lance in Doll’s direction, worried about how the others were faring Luckily, Doll and Yu Lian-dàsăo were stalling the rock spirit together Gui was playing his guqin and casting Supersonic Soul-chasing Arrow to interfere with the ene an iinary opponent?!
Abruptly, I recalled the presence of an invisible opponent – the wind spirit! The wind spirit has forced Wolf-dàgē into a one-on-one fight This is bad! Where’s Lolidragon?
I turned around to look at the other on crouching stealthily behind the water spirit She was planning to take it down by surprise, but…
"Lolidragon, RUN!"
Having returned to its teaainst this thief who could burrow through the ground to assassinate her opponents As soon as it noticed her presence, it ih…!" Unable to evade in tion was struck squarely by the attack, and her HP dropped drastically She got to her feet immediately and burrowed her way back to Odd Squad On her way back, however, she noticed that Wolf-dàgē was in peril and instantly rushed to his aid
Although it’s really hard to see an invisible person with the naked eye, even an invisible person would have trouble hiding fro fire added to that, and soon the wind spirit was clearly on the brink of defeat…
At that moment, the flower spirit that had remained motionless all this ti spell Flower petals drifted slowly down onto the wind spirit’s head, and atched as its injuries healed up substantially
