Chapter 1278: I'll let you run a marathon
When the smoke cleared, everyone saw Su Xiao gasping for breath.
Every time he took a breath, it felt like a blunt knife was cutting through his lungs.
A hole as thick as a bowl appeared in Su Xiao's chest. Through this opening, the space behind him could be seen. The muscles, bones, and internal organs that were previously located in this part of his body had evaporated due to the high temperature, and what was most unpleasant was that the flesh around this hole was badly burned.
The battle between Su Xiao and Hufe could only be described as terrifying. It wasn't the power that both sides used that was frightening, but the seemingly ordinary fight between the two guys that turned into a fight to the death in an instant.
Usually fighters put off their strongest moves until the very end? That wasn't the case in this fight. As soon as they saw the chance, they immediately decided to take it. If the "Demon Hunt Time" was still not on cooldown, Su Xiao would have activated this skill at the very beginning and shown Khufa kuzkin mother.
Su Xiao's situation wasn't very good, but Hufe's condition wasn't much different from Su Xiao's. One of his arms was twisted several times, all the ribs on the right side of his chest were broken, and some of the ribs had sunk into his internal organs.
Khufe's resilience was his strong point. Because of Su Xiao's punch, he wasn't torn into pieces and immediately started to get back on his feet.
— Seeing Su Xiao's condition in the distance, Hufe laughed for some reason. "You... come to me!" Khufe shouted.
Su Xiao, who was still squatting on the ground and trying to clear his throat, was stunned and looked at Hufe in surprise.
He thought he might have misheard.
Su Xiao originally thought that Hufe was a gloomy and serious man, but at this moment, he discovered that it didn't seem like that was the case. At least in combat, Khufe was quite a fun guy.
If Khufe really was a gloomy person, how could he have awakened such an unusual flame in himself?
Su Xiao got to his feet, took a few steps forward, and then stopped. Khufe's blow was too strong. If he didn't have the survivability of a main tank, this one hit would have killed him.
— Then I'll come myself, " Khufe said, and took a few steps forward with difficulty, but before he had taken five steps, he began to vomit blood.
More than half of his internal organs were torn to pieces.
In the arena, with the exception of one's own regeneration, it was impossible to use third-party tools for recovery. Even if the contractor found a suitable potion, they wouldn't use it. They were not in the derived world and it was impossible to die in the arena.
Both sides looked at each other. The atmosphere became a little awkward. Both sides ' attacks were too powerful. After the first skirmish, they lost the ability to stand properly on their feet, not to mention the continuation of the battle.
The dragon flash spun in Su Xiao's hands and stabbed into the ground beside him. His feet immediately pressed against his sword.
Seeing this, Khufe decided to release the remnants of the remaining flame, but his condition was too bad.
Realizing this, a golden-colored revolver appeared in Hufe's hands and he immediately fired several shots towards Su Xiao.
A few extra holes appeared on Su Xiao's body, but with his left hand, he blocked the bullets that flew to his head, and with his right hand, he blocked the bullets that flew to his heart.
Hufe's six shots made Su Xiao's situation significantly worse. His strength was rapidly draining from his body and he had one foot in the grave.
Khufe began quickly loading new rounds of ammunition.
While Hufe was loading his revolver, a pitch-black sniper rifle appeared in Su Xiao's hands.
Hufe glanced at the sniper rifle in Su Xiao's hands, then looked at the thirty-centimeter revolver in his hand.
The corners of his mouth twitched.
Su Xiao took a deep breath and aimed at Khufe.
Hufe's revolver also headed towards Su Xiao.
Stan in the spectator stand stood up and immediately disappeared.
— Suddenly, a desperate roar rang out from the audience stands. It wasn't issued by someone from Blood Gate, but by a middle-aged fat man.
This fat man was the founder of the Black Sails Chamber of Commerce».
His face was pale, and he was stunned.
In the next moment, Su Xiao and Hufe pulled the trigger at the same time. Compared to the Duke of Nirvana with a+13 sharpener, the gold-grade revolver in Khufe's hand looked too pale and weak.
This duel looked as if one of them came to it with a stick, and the other with a huge machete.
*BOOM!*
One figure disappeared from the arena, while the other fell to the ground.
Su Xiao lay on the dry ground and felt the raging flames ignite beneath him.
*BOOM!*
Incandescent flames shot out from the ground and enveloped the entire swamp, but Su Xiao didn't feel a drop of pain. The fight came to an end. He had won, and he had defeated one of the people he had considered too strong in the past.
Under the fat man's desperate gaze, Su Xiao disappeared from the arena. Bubtni and Amu simultaneously raised their middle fingers towards the Blood Gate members. They felt very satisfied. The expressions of the Blood Gate members changed endlessly, until they finally started to get up and leave. They all realized one thing — from now on, they would have to tread carefully in the future. Some fourth-rank contractors were secretly scared when they witnessed such an exchange of attacks.
What was even more terrifying was that Su Xiao was a loner. Once Su Xiao was promoted to the fourth rank and they met up with him, if there were no other companions nearby… The outcome of such a meeting was not difficult to imagine.
Of course, only a small number of fourth-rank contractors were concerned about this, mostly just those who had recently moved up to fourth-rank. The Blood Gate skeletons, such as Iron Rat and Gray Smog, were not afraid of Su Xiao at all.
Su Xiao himself eventually disappeared from the arena. When he returned to the break room, the wound on his chest had disappeared and only fatigue remained in his body.
[
Due to the fact that you reached the second place, you received the following rewards: 3 free points of characteristics; Improvement of the "Victory badge" tag».
[
Do you want to improve the " Victory Sign»?
yes/no.
Reminder: If the Hunter takes first place and only then decides to improve the tag, the resulting title will have better stats..
Su Xiao now had two options. He could either improve the mark right now, or he could challenge Mad Fox and only then improve it, which would allow him to gain slightly more benefits.
Su Xiao didn't see the point of improving the mark right now. He was already ranked second, so couldn't he try to take the first place? It would take him ten hours to prepare for the fight.
These ten hours will be enough to recuperate and recharge the Wood Spirit skill.
Su Xiao didn't immediately visit Black Sails for the sake of getting the bet played. There was no need to rush this matter. They signed the contract anyway, so even if they wanted to, the Black Sails wouldn't be able to refuse to pay the debt.
As a result, he began to clean himself up. The battle with Khufe was quick, but it was very dangerous.
Ten hours passed in the blink of an eye.
After checking out everything necessary, Su Xiao decided to challenge the strongest third-rank contractor in the arena, Mad Fox.
[
The opponent accepted the challenge.
[
Preparation is complete, your opponent occupies the 1st place of the third rank arena.
Mad Fox accepted the challenge almost immediately, and teleported them to the arena a moment later.
They found themselves in an arena that was designed as a stage for performances. The battle format was semi-public.
The arena was about half a kilometer in size, but this time it was flat and its foundation was made of stone.
At the moment, there were only four people in the audience besides Bubtni and Amu, namely the Holy Emperor, Goat, Guild Treasurer, Matcha, Two-tailed Healer, and Crazy Priest.
With the exception of Matcha, Su Xiao already knew all the other people.
— Brother, teach the Fox proper manners, " a shout suddenly rang out from the audience seats. The Mad Priest shouted it. Mad Fox was actually his teacher, but there was no teacher-student relationship in Paradise as such, so they were brothers to each other.
— Byakuya, blow that stupid Fox to smithereens! Hearing this shout, Su Xiao was surprised.
The cute girl who shouted this was from the Sacred Emperor Guild, and judging from her clothes, she was a healer, but she was actually really rooting for him...
