They had seen arrogant people before, but they had never seen someone this arrogant!
A little beginner acolyte actually dared to challenge a group of elite law enforcers, whose lowest rank was an advanced acolyte. This was undoubtedly something that provoked everyone's nerves.
The elite acolytes grinned as they accepted the challenge. They continuously cheered Blackwood on, encouraged him, and threatened him. They urged him to teach this arrogant brat a lesson. As more and more bets piled up on the side of the field, the crowd's interest grew. They even pushed the bald-headed Ah Fu to the side and crowded around the two people who had bet on the fight as they entered the field.
Looking at his excited companions, bald Ah Fu's expression became strange. He secretly pulled the black-handed Kevin to the side.
"Brat, this person is recommended by you. Don't make a big mess for me. Do you really think he has a chance of winning? "
"Err … According to the soul memory that Wizard Angus extracted, this Grimm has an earth element puppet creature that's quite powerful. Perhaps … perhaps … if he were to display his full strength, it would be possible for him to remain undefeated. But if he wants to defeat Hei Mu, that would be impossible! "
After getting a satisfactory answer, bald Ah Fu couldn't help but become excited.
"Little ones, spread out and make room for them. Don't let that brat go back on his words. Come, Mensa, tally up the bets. Remember to add in my bet. I'll bet 200 magic crystals on Blackwood's victory! "
Bald Ah Fu's roar echoed through the arena, and the atmosphere in the arena instantly exploded.
Strange yells and roars rose one after another, and the name "Blackwood" floated everywhere.
At this moment, Grimm and Blackwood had already entered the arena. They stood in front of each other about a hundred meters apart.
Looking at Grim who was calmly preparing for battle, Blackwood grinned, revealing his incomplete yellow teeth. He sneered and said, "Brat, you've got guts! But I hope that you won't be lying in a pool of blood and howling in pain later. Don't worry, as long as you're willing to lie on the ground and admit your ignorance, I'll consider sparing your life! Kekeke … "
Facing his opponent's verbal attack, Grimm coldly threw out his summoning crystal core.
Today's location was very suitable. Although the ground beneath his feet had been hardened by magic, it was still mud!
In the next moment, a huge amount of earth element gathered, and a hazy, illusory figure gradually appeared in front of everyone.
Uh … isn't this a little too big?
Seeing the gigantic Demon Crocodile Hunter gradually appear in the field, the cheers from the sidelines began to die down, and the crowd began to feel a little restless.
This kid is a Summoner? Why did they summon such a big guy?
As the Earth Element gathered, the Demon Crocodile Hunter's body became more and more solid. Its huge body and ferocious appearance began to appear in front of everyone. Grimm stepped forward and sat on the crocodile's back.
Damn it, this kid really has some skill!
Blackwood cursed inwardly as he quickly prepared his own witchcraft.
As this was a duel under the watchful eyes of the crowd, both sides could prepare support spells in advance, but they could not attack the opponent beforehand. Therefore, Blackwood's witchcraft was mainly for support and summoning.
As Blackwood's ebony staff shook, the many small ornaments tied to the end of the staff collided with each other, emitting a crisp sound. The ornaments that resembled the sharp teeth of magical beasts and the skull of a human exploded with white light, quickly condensing into two terrifying white bone shields around his body.
The white bone shields were made up of countless white bones, and on the surface of the shields was a malevolent and distorted skull. Two balls of green flames floated in the skull's eye sockets, and its upper and lower jaw constantly opened and closed. It looked terrifying, as if it was about to choose a person to devour.
Blackwood quickly chanted an incantation, and an extremely strange black halo appeared in his empty right palm. Its purpose was unknown.
"Are you all ready?" Fu's roar reverberated throughout the field.
When he saw the two nodding silently, Fu roared loudly, "Then I announce the start of the duel!"
As soon as the duel was announced, the black halo in Blackwood's hand trembled inexplicably. On the other side, Grimm, who was already on guard, sensed the incoming attack through his elemental sight.
A curse-type attack!
Only curse-type attacks could be so formless and difficult to defend against.
Grimm stood high on the crocodile, his short apprentice robes fluttering in the breeze. Under the exquisite noble headband on his forehead, a pair of eyes flashed with blue light as he stared unwaveringly at Blackwood who was a hundred meters away.
If it was someone else, perhaps they would have been hit by Blackwood's sneak attack while they were still baffled. However, with Grimm's elemental sight that could see through all magical elements, he could see everything clearly. A formless and strange black lasso was thrown out from the halo in Blackwood's hand, following a strange arc as it flew towards him.
At this moment, the Shrieking Twig in Grimm's bosom that he had prepared beforehand sounded continuously.
However, Grimm's attention was not diverted by the Shrieking Twig at all. Instead, he focused on the A.I. Chip's prompt in his mind.
[Warning, warning … Malicious spiritual force has been detected … Please leave immediately, or else you will suffer a curse-type attack … According to the current spell database, there is a 71% chance of mental confusion, a 26% chance of mental retardation, and a 3% chance of a soul worm …]
It turned out that curse-type spells required one to first use spiritual force to lock onto the target. Only then could one establish a hidden spiritual channel and use the curse on the target, saving the time needed for the spell to manifest. This was probably the main reason why curse-type attacks were so hard to intercept or counter halfway!
Understanding dawned on him. The crocodile under Grimm's feet was connected to his mind, and it immediately chose to take half a step back the instant the black lasso was about to reach him. The native hunter took the black lasso in place of Grimm.
In the next second, the black halo in Blackwood's hand exploded and disappeared. A ball of smoke erupted from the native hunter's body, turning into a black skull that circled around its body and entered its body.
Damn it, it was ineffective!
That fellow was a summoned elemental puppet.
Blackwood immediately sensed that his curse attack had not landed on the spiritual body. He cursed angrily in a low voice, his claw-like right hand gesturing as he prepared to cast the next spell.
However, at this moment, Grimm's attack had already neared him.
The native hunter on top of the crocodile waved its hands, condensing earth elemental spears into the air and hurling them at Blackwood, causing the white bone shield around him to tremble. Immediately after, a flame spear condensed from pure fire elemental energy pierced through the air and pierced the white bone shield.
In the next second, the frantic elemental flames engulfed the small area where Blackwood was standing.
"Eh …"
At the same time, many elite acolytes could not help but look at each other in astonishment. The strength of this attack and the form of this spell did not seem to be at the level of a beginner acolyte! Such a rapid casting speed and an attack strength of 32 points … Was this something a beginner acolyte could do?
The crowd could not help but fall silent, and began to treat this slightly joking bet more cautiously.
The acolytes outside the arena could sense that something was wrong, and Blackwood, who was surrounded by the earth and flame spears, felt it even more deeply. Damn it, it's actually a three-way siege of earth, fire, and physical attacks! As the violent flames spread around his body, the White Bone Shield, which had been struck until it was trembling, showed signs of collapsing.
Blackwood's expression darkened, and he hurriedly used his consciousness to replace the one in front of him with another white bone shield. He gritted his teeth and took out a few pieces of black rotten meat from his waist pouch, casually throwing them at his feet.
In the next moment, just as Grimm was about to charge forward with the huge Demon Crocodile, intending to crush his opponent with its huge body, a strange figure rushed out from the lingering flames. The figure crawled on the ground and pounced at the Demon Crocodile in a completely different way.
This was a terrifying two-metre-tall patchwork corpse. It had a deathly pale body, two heads, five arms, and seven legs, and its entire body looked like a monster that had been randomly pieced together from a few human corpses. It crawled on the ground, its five arms and seven legs moving at the same time, and its running trajectory was unpredictable. It nimbly dodged a few earth spears thrown at it, and quickly closed in on the advancing crocodile.
The heavy front limbs of the crocodile landed heavily on the ground, causing the ground beneath its feet to shake and ripple. The patchwork corpse that had just charged in front of it was immediately hit, its entire body swaying unstably.
* Whoosh … *
A strong gust of wind blew, and the crocodile opened its mouth wide, pouncing forward and biting the patchwork corpse. It closed its mouth, and its sharp barbed teeth instantly crushed the corpse.
With a muffled sound, the patchwork corpse exploded into black blood that covered the crocodile's entire head. Under Grimm's horrified gaze, the earth element that had been pieced together to form the crocodile's head instantly collapsed. Tons of soil lost their restraints and fell to the ground.
Damn it, what a powerful corrosive black blood. It could even corrode and neutralize elemental particles!
However, the control crystal of the crocodile was clearly not in its head. Otherwise, if the black blood had contaminated the crystal, Grimm's trump card would have been destroyed.
The crocodile that had lost its head was still moving forward with all its might. Dense earth element once again gathered in front of its body, and the outline of a new head was now clearly visible.
