A Trial Wagered with One's Life
After a dizzying, spinning sensation, Fang Li was teleported into the Trial Tower.
When his vision returned, Fang Li was greeted by a vast desert.
"Call----!"
As the wind howled, sand and dust began to spread, causing Fang Li to close his eyes briefly and raise a hand to shield his face.
Looking around, Fang Li was somewhat taken aback.
"It seems that this is a space that has been set aside separately."
Otherwise, Fang Li should have been able to see the other Main God Envoy.
In this situation, the system notification sound begins to play.
"Enter the first floor of the Trial Tower to begin the trial."
"Number 11273, you need to kill 100 Fifth Level opponents within one hour. If the number of kills is not met after one hour, this trial will be declared a failure."
"Note that the opponent you need to kill has the same attributes as you. If you are killed by mistake, you will die permanently and will not have the chance to revive."
When such a system notification entered Fang Li's mind, Fang Li was completely dumbfounded.
Kill 100 opponents with the same attributes as yourself?
If the requirement is not met after one hour, it will fail?
If you are killed, you will die instantly?
Are you kidding me?
Are you kidding me?
This is the first floor!
Ignoring Fang Li's feelings, the system's cold notification tone delivered its merciless verdict.
"The trial begins."
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire vast desert trembled.
"Shh..."
Amidst the sounds of sand rubbing against each other, dark figures emerged from the desert.
Looking at those dark shadows, Fang Li felt a chill run down his spine, and goosebumps rose all over his body.
Because they were enormous scorpions.
The scorpion is as big as a calf.
Its entire body was jet black.
Its tail, with its sharp hooks, swayed back and forth in the air.
In his eyes, a scarlet hue rippled, making a lifelike ferocity surge within.
These enormous scorpions emerged from every corner of the desert, instantly surrounding Fang Li.
The next second, pairs of reddened eyes turned to Fang Li, filling the arid desert with a terrifying atmosphere.
Time stood still at that moment.
When it started spinning again, the giant scorpions with red eyes swarmed in from all directions like spiders, rushing towards Fang Li's direction.
"Tsk!" Fang Li couldn't help but click his tongue, and suddenly gripped a sharp dagger in his hand.
Then, like a tidal wave, the enormous scorpions instantly engulfed Fang Li.
"Grumble----!"
With an unpleasant screech, like glass being scraped by a sharp object, a scorpion rushed in front of Fang Li and pounced on Fang Li.
As the scorpion grew larger in his field of vision, Fang Li shifted his Fang Li and, with a sudden movement, his Moon Blade flashed and stabbed fiercely at the scorpion's body as it lunged forward.
"Clang—!"
With a crisp clash, Fang Li's dagger did not pierce the scorpion's body as expected, but instead rubbed against the scorpion's skin, sparking intense sparks.
Upon seeing this, Fang Li's eyes widened, and he almost wanted to curse.
"This is what you call having the same attributes as me? You're kidding me."
Fang Li had no idea when he would be able to withstand the stabs of sharp weapons with his bare body.
Of course, the scorpion in front of us defended Fang Li against Fang Li's sting by covering its body with scales. To some extent, that was due to the characteristics of its species, not its own attributes.
Just like a cow, even if its attack power is exactly the same as a human's, you can easily imagine what would happen if a human used their fist to collide with the cow's horns.
That's why humans need weapons, while wild animals use claws and fangs.
"Very good..."
Fang Li closed his eyes slightly.
When they opened their eyes again, the Ice-Blue Demon Eyes had already appeared.
"Laugh----!"
With a whooshing sound, Fang Li's dagger flashed again, slashing towards the scorpion that had not yet fallen to the ground.
"Pfft—!"
A burst of blood mist shot out from the scorpion's body, cleaving it in two mid-air.
"No matter how strong the defense is, it's no match for the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception!"
Fang Li turned his gaze, his Ice-Blue Demon Eyes fixed on the remaining scorpions.
"Grumble----!"
"Grumble----!"
Each scorpion let out an angry hiss and lunged toward Fang Li.
Instantly, the area Fang Li Fangli was covered by swarms of scorpions that pounced on him, leaving no gaps.
In other words, Fang Li had no way to dodge.
"No way to dodge?"
Fang Li's lips curled into a smile.
In the past, the current situation would indeed have been unavoidable.
However, this idea is outdated for Fang Li now.
"Flash Run - Water Moon..."
Fang Li's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.
Like a flower in a mirror or the moon's reflection in water, it disappeared without any warning.
Under these circumstances, the scorpions that were swooping in from all directions collided violently with each other.
"Bang bang bang bang bang--!"
With a heavy thud, the scorpions bounced off each other like balls colliding with each other, and fell to the ground.
In that instant, a figure silently swooped down from above and suddenly swung a knife at the scorpions that had fallen to the ground.
"Pfft—pfft—pfft—!"
The sounds of sharp weapons piercing flesh rang out one after another.
The sharp dagger easily sliced through the scales of the scorpions, sending sprays of blood flying into the sky.
Fang Li, like an inverted moon reflected in water, appeared and disappeared intermittently, his pair of Ice-Blue Demon Eyes wide open, weaving through the encirclement formed by giant scorpions.
Only then did Fang Li begin to understand the setup of the first level of the trial.
"Although they share the same attributes, these scorpions have neither skills nor intelligence."
In other words, they were just a group of wild beasts with the same physical abilities as Fang Li.
Despite having tough scales and a seemingly venomous tail hook, just like Fang Li before, it possesses only the ability to kill with a single blow and a powerful physique, but lacks any skill.
Back then, when Fang Li Tohno Shiki, he was instantly defeated.
Now, if Fang Li facing such a group of enemies, the outcome would naturally be the same.
Not to mention, Fang Li also has skills and equipment.
With the boost from skills and equipment, Fang Li's speed still far surpasses that of his opponents.
so...
"We can win!"
