I'd Have a Hard Time Fighting You Looking Like a Comedian
"You dare to oppose me under the night sky? You're the bravest one." Watching the corpse dressed in Night-walking clothes slowly disappear into the mist, the mountain landscape before him instantly returned to the familiar stairwell.
Whether it was luck or some other special factor, Feng Xue won six consecutive challenges with ease. The archers and snipers were completely suppressed by the Arrow Protection, and the spellcasters, facing the speed boost from Feng Xue's Bu Tiange and Heavenly Sphere Star Shifting Technique (beginner level), couldn't even lock onto their targets. They were completely bewildered when Feng Xue used his Ghostly Evasion combo in the Misty Field to get close to them.
The warrior type was a bit more difficult to deal with; even with Feng Xue's Martial Force prowess, she couldn't successfully defeat it. However, as the Disassembly Madonna gradually destroyed all of the opponent's weapons and armor, the advantage of fighting unarmed with weapons immediately became apparent.
The All-rounder was even more disappointing than he had imagined. Although he seemed to be a versatile fighter who could handle both melee and ranged combat, he was bad at everything and was easily defeated by Feng Xue, who used brute force to cut him and his armor in two.
The only one who was truly interesting was the assassin guard. His ability to conceal his presence was so high that even Feng Xue couldn't detect him—if his Golden Finger could not see the elements.
Just as Feng Xue could observe lurking Omen directly through the mosaic sphere when walking in the wild, in his field of vision, a bright [Guardian] element was blatantly hanging on a tree where no one could be seen hiding.
Furthermore, since the assassin's main stage was set in the jungle at night, Feng Xue had no choice but to let the opponent experience what a true "Disassembly Madonna" was like.
As she stepped onto the Stairs leading to the eighth floor, Feng Xue suddenly felt a strange sense of confidence, a feeling of "Well, I'm pretty strong after all" involuntarily rising in her mind.
As he reached the end of the last step, he slightly adjusted his mindset and entered a state of Breath Concealment.
The environment was quietly changing, but this time, Feng Xue was surprised to find that she was in an arena.
Surrounding the spacious, flat ground were sturdy-looking railings, and beyond that were tiered platforms resembling stadium seating. Men and women of various appearances and attire sat around the arena, frozen in place like insects encased in amber, creating a terrifying, wax museum-like atmosphere.
"A gladiator arena? Superpowers, knights, and swarms all seem quite suitable."
Feng Xue pondered the remaining three types of guards for a moment, then looked somewhat dissatisfied at the "fireball" hanging high in the sky and said helplessly:
Let's begin!
The moment the consciousness was transmitted, a strange figure appeared in the arena.
It's not that the other party is Cannot Be Named, but rather because—
"What kind of comedian is this?"
Although he realized it was probably the filter's fault, he couldn't help but throw the salt that had appeared out of nowhere at his opponent thirty meters away. The opponent was a knight dressed in heavy black armor, his head completely covered by a perforated metal helmet, holding a long spear, and with Nail Head Hammer and Single-handed sword hanging at his waist.
If that were all, it wouldn't be so bad. The problem is that beneath her is a tall, magnificent Horse girl wearing only a corset (or saddle?).
She remained on all fours, her head held high, wearing a bridle made of bit and reins, and a support on her back connected to her waist for holding up a long spear. It was hard not to think of her as a piece of junk.
Such a top-heavy scene gives people an extremely unstable feeling, but both the large-sized Horse girl on all fours and the female knight in the tin can on her back are perfectly stable.
Seeing Feng Xue throw a bag of salt from afar, the female knight immediately pulled on the reins, and the Horse girl beneath her raised its head and charged towards Feng Xue at a speed inconsistent with its posture.
"Spin!" Seeing that her opponent had launched an attack, Feng Xue didn't bother to complain about the bizarre scene. With a forceful swing of her left hand, the salt that had been thrown more than ten meters suddenly drew an arc and landed steadily on the female knight's head.
The female knight used the support on the Horse girl's back to maintain the balance of her spear with one hand, and with her left hand she raised the Single-handed sword at her waist and swung it forcefully at the salt. As the plastic bag tore open, clumps of fine salt drifted away like willow catkins in the wind.
Having already prepared, Feng Xue used the Heavenly Sphere Star Shifting Technique (beginner level) to rush towards the female knight. As she flicked out her Sleeve Blade with her right hand, her left thumb pressed down hard on her index finger joint as if pressing a detonator.
"Gather!"
In an instant, a small clump of salt, as if suddenly awakened, condensed into a thin white needle no longer than a toothpick, shooting from the salt dust toward the hole in the knight's mask.
Although Feng Xue's Mindless Divine Power was only at the initial stage and far from reaching the level of Law Has Spirit, he had become extremely proficient in the technique of manipulating external objects by using his Internal Force to carry various energy paths to create magical dishes over a long period of time.
Although salt as a carrier cannot cause much harm, as long as it can be applied to the face, even if it cannot cause blindness, you will not be able to see clearly for a short period of time!
At this moment, the two were seven meters apart, the tip of the spear was five meters away from Feng Xue, and the salt needle was 0.03 meters away from the female knight's mask.
Just then, a sharp gaze suddenly flashed through the mask that was supposed to severely restrict vision. The female knight deftly lowered her head, and with a crisp sound, the salt needle shattered on the forehead of her helmet. In that brief moment of delay, the Horse girl charged forward several more meters.
The spear was already upon him!
Misty Field!
In an instant, white mist suddenly filled the air, and a cold light rose from Feng Xue's left arm, slicing the spear in front of her in two. At the same time, she exerted force with her right ring finger and wrist, and the Blade of Suffocation transformed into a streak of light that shot towards the female knight.
"Hoo hoo hoo hoo..." A horse's neighing, almost anthropomorphic, came from in front of her, and the Horse girl, standing on her hind legs, slapped Feng Xue's forehead hard with her large, fan-like hand.
Fortunately, Feng Xue was already used to this kind of monster-girl transformation scene. Although she still found it dazzling, she did not lose her composure for a moment.
The Ghostly Evasion was launched almost the instant the two hands slammed down, but Feng Xue did not choose to regroup. Instead, she appeared directly beside the Horse girl.
Life-taking sword —no regrets once drawn.
In the instant that Killing intent solidified, Feng Xue's eyes blazed with ferocity. She wielded her sword and thrust it towards the Horse girl's side.
Compared to the fully armed Iron Can Knight, the Horse girl with only a bridle and a belt has a pitiful defense. The feeling of Sharp blade piercing flesh is accompanied by splattering blood, but a strong sense of crisis also comes from above.
That was a Nail Head Hammer!
Regarding the Grave of Resurrection...
This is a guaranteed effect; once activated, it will resurrect an enemy unit, choosing the nearest target. However, the problem is that the only death within the Tower of Babel occurs in the Challenge Space. So, when Feng Xue triggers the effect, based on the principle of proximity, it resurrects a dead unit within the Challenge Space. Then, because the resurrected unit is in a defensive position, it cannot immediately attack or escape, and unlike Feng Xue, it doesn't know what happened to it. Therefore...
P. S.: I don't know if this will pass the review...
