Chapter 193: The Battle
[The hunter chose a competitive mode, subspecies: Individual battles. The hunter will be moved to the break room in three seconds.]
Soon, Su Xiao appeared in the break room. There were seats, a bed, and so on. There was a large screen on the wall with a table of the best, and most of the contractors whose numbers were not far from his were displayed on this screen.
At the very top of the screen, the top 10 best fighters in the arena were displayed along with their avatars, however, their avatars clearly did not display their true faces.
In the break room, you could not only catch your breath after a hard battle, but also call employees if necessary..
[Selecting an opponent... selection completed.]
[Since this is the first Hunter match, you have been given a free opportunity to change your appearance.]
Immediately after reading the last notification, many windows appeared in front of Su Xiao. Su Xiao quickly found even Iron Man's armor, an ultraman suit, in the lists... naturally, many famous costumes had to be purchased for a fee.
Usually, the contractors would hide or change their faces, making themselves look super-beautiful or super-ugly, but Su Xiao decided to just cover up his face. At his matches, sooner or later, there will be spectators. If he doesn't hide his face, his enemies will be able to learn his fighting style and use the knowledge gained against him in the future.
Su Xiao chose a metal mask that covered half of the lower part of his face. The metal mask was dark red in color and covered the nose and mouth, but it did not have any effect on breathing.
[Hunter finished changing his appearance, starting the teleportation process...]
For a second, everything in front of Su Xiao was blurred, and when he blinked, he was in a completely different place.
He was in a circular field. The arena wasn't small — only about three or four hundred meters, the ground was solid and was covered with a special anti-slip ground, and there was an energy barrier at the edges of the arena.
Their current arena was surrounded by an auditorium. The arena itself was located at the bottom, and the spectator seats were located on top.
Given this location, it will be quite convenient to watch the battles, and the screams of the audience will encourage the fighters to fight even more fiercely..
Since Su Xiao was currently ranked '165.743', there were only three people in the audience.
— Brother Peach, I believe in you! A beautiful girl shouted out.
— Peach, kill him.
— If you win, I'll buy you a drink.
There were no spectators as such in this battle — among the spectators there was only the" support group " of the enemy.
Su Xiao's opponent was a guy of seventeen or eighteen years old.
The teenager was dressed like an anime character and was holding a Colt M pistol.1911».
[Three... two... one... The battle has begun!]
— Very good, I've already won two battles, if I win three times in a row, my ranking will increase significantly, " Peach said, twirling his gun in his hands. His eyes were full of confidence.
— Just give up, with only one sword and an arena of 370 meters, you won't be able to get close to me, " after these words, Peach stood up in a standard shooting pose, but he didn't shoot.
This guy just liked to show off.
Su Xiao stood in his spot and looked at his opponent doubtfully.
No, his opponent wasn't too strong — he was too weak.
This guy wouldn't even be able to kill an A-class ghoul, so why did the matching system throw such a weak opponent at him?
— Finish up early, I want to celebrate quickly!
Peach grabbed his gun with both hands and fired three times.
— Kill him!
Su Xiao looked at the three bullets that were flying at him.
*Ding-ding-ding!*
Three bullets were cut, and this scene silenced the "audience" .
— What kind of jokes? the audience was stunned, and their mouths were slightly open.
They were level 1 or 2 contractors, so this scene looked too magical for them.
Peach looked at Su Xiao blankly and fired a few more bullets.
*Whew!*
A black shadow flashed across Peach's field of vision...
A bright glare briefly entered his field of vision, and when Peach regained consciousness, he was already in the break room.
— Did I lose? Peach sat down on the floor and couldn't understand what had just happened.
----
Su Xiao's first fight ended too quickly.
— Why were we assigned to one match at all? Su Xiao muttered as he sat on the bed in the break room.
That arena was perfect for him.
With the help of this arena, he will be able to face strong contractors, and once this happens, he will be able to gain unique combat experience, but the first fight was too easy for him.
[The individual battle has come to an end, you have won!]
[Hunter rank increased from 165.743 to 154.703 (First Rank).]
[A message was received from the opponent.
Do you want to view it?
yes/no]
Su Xiao was surprised to see that it was also possible to send messages to each other.
Naturally, he decided to read this message.
«You must have cheated, you garbage cheater».
Su Xiao frowned. This guy was a bit strange, but with a shrug, he set out to search for another battle.
Since his ranking was low, the speed of picking up opponents was very fast. His new opponent was picked up in less than ten seconds.
He found himself in the same arena, but this time the audience was slightly larger. About a dozen people were sitting in the audience seats, which was probably due to his increased ratings.
[Three... two... one... The battle has begun!]
Su Xiao's opponent this time was a tank with a shield.
— Sword brother, don't lose, I bet you 50 coins! Hearing this shout from one of the onlookers, Su Xiao was surprised.
«You can place bets in the arena?»
After asking Paradise about it, Su Xiao was a little disappointed. Indeed, it was possible to place bets on fighters, but the fighters themselves could not place bets on their own battles, and they also could not place bets through others on their own battles. If any murky scheme is revealed, the contractor will immediately be executed.
To avoid the occurrence of unfair matches, Rai simply executed such contractors.
After the battle started, the tank in front of Su Xiao took up a fighting stance and began to slowly advance, clearly intending to starve his opponent out.
But since Su Xiao's current ranking didn't match his strength, all the contractors he would be meeting now would be rookies.
Rushing forward with great speed, he simply cut down his opponent with a single slash of his sword.
[Two wins in a row!]
A line of golden text appeared above Su Xiao's head, and all the onlookers were stunned.
— He... won? the corners of the contractor's mouth that had bet on Su Xiao's victory twitched.
Su Xiao's body gradually disappeared and he returned to the rest room.
Su Xiao felt that this situation would continue for a while longer.
[The individual battle has come to an end, you have won and this is the second victory in a row!]
[Hunter rank increased from 154.703 to 123.703 (First Rank).]
When he opened the message, he saw a very ordinary sentence.
«Do you want to join our group? We have good ones...»
After deleting this message, he looked at his rating. Two wins in a row raised his rating by about 30,000 points.
Su Xiao went back to looking for a match. Ten seconds later, he appeared in the arena. This time there were about a hundred spectators.
Most of these viewers were likely employees of Paradise, and only a very small number were contractors.
This time, his opponent was a mage. When the fight started, he started running back, and Su Xiao calmly took out his gun and fired a few shots.
[Three wins in a row!]
Su Xiao reappeared in the break room.
For the next ten minutes, Su Xiao would appear again and again in the arena and cut down his enemy if he was a melee fighter, or kill his enemy with a pistol if he was a ranged fighter.
[Four wins in a row!]
[Five wins in a row!]
[Six wins in a row!]
[Seventeen consecutive wins!]
Sitting on the bed in the break room, Su Xiao looked at his current ranking.
«13.400»
A streak of 17 wins had changed his ranking from six figures to five figures, but Su Xiao still didn't have any feelings fighting an opponent of even that rank.
He was much stronger than his opponents, so the fight basically lasted no more than ten seconds.
Right now, he was spending more time looking for a new match than the actual fight itself.
[The match was found, but since the Hunter has a winning streak of 17 matches, the Hunter was selected an opponent with a rating of less than 10.000.]
Su Xiao appeared in the arena.
— Red side — melee fighter, blue side-mage, swordsman unlucky.
— Guys with a rating below ten thousand are not weak, I think this fight will be very exciting.
— Start quickly, I want to see the show!
There were about a thousand spectators, and the atmosphere was unusually hot.
Su Xiao's opponent was a sexy witch in a long red dress. The slit in her dress was very vulgar, and her beautiful white thighs kept peeking out from under the fabric.
Unlike normal witches, she didn't have much mana, but her spells dealt a huge amount of damage.
— Little brother, if you lose, don't say I'm shameless, it's just that you're too weak.
— Su Xiao immediately rushed towards his enemy.
