As Isabella expected, the mysterious Samman still didn't show up until the end of the potioneer contest the next morning. Of course, the same was true for the "cunning human".
The finals of the potioneer contest were full of ups and downs. The presidents of the Potioneer Alliance of the 3 empires were really more skilled. Angello's buff potion was extremely excellent with amazing purity and efficacy; Wilson was known as the strongest poison master and he even created a very violent poison; Aldas seemed comprehensive and stable. The 3 of them couldn't compete with him for a while.
In the final contest, Angello of the Shadow Empire performed beyond his level and formulated the powerful Iron Wall Potion with minimal side effects.
According to the comments of the arbitrator, Pannu, this kind of potion was extremely close to the black potion, "True Iron Wall Potion". In other words, Angello performed extremely close to the threshold of a grand master, which was the quasi-grand master level. Of course, this was just a performance beyond his level. His state wasn't stable, so he couldn't be called a quasi-grand master.
With this bottle of potion, Angello finally defeated two strong opponents and won the champion of the potioneer contest.
The potioneer contest was over, and the public's focus was on the last and most exciting game of the contest, the mechanic master contest.
Since the potioneer masters were low-key, and many of them were notorious for developing poisons, relatively speaking, people were more familiar and fond of the mechanic masters.
After a master-level mechanic made a successful or satisfactory work, he would usually name and engrave the name of the maker. A good piece of equipment could often be passed down through the ages. Meanwhile, the potion formulated by a potioneer, even if it was just a bottle of black potion, it was just an empty bottle after drinking it.
The preliminary of the mechanic master contest began in the afternoon. Watching the famous masters who had only heard of their names but never seen them enter the arena one by one, the atmosphere of the arena suddenly became high. When Master Fonsaq, the president of the Fallen Angel Empire Mechanic Alliance, entered the arena, it attracted loud cheers from the home audience.
When Anderson, Rummenigge, Turia, Mavina and others of the Bloody Empire saw Fonsaq who had "disappeared" for a long time, they all stepped forward to greet or nod. Especially Turia. "Richard" was once accepted by Turia as a disciple, but he "betrayed" his master in order to expose Nate's true face and finally "sacrificed". Turia and his wife were sad for a long time. Turia's daughter, Beluan, even became silent because of this.
Hearing Turia's words of 'you've accepted a good disciple', Fonsaq took a while to realise that he was talking about someone disguised as' Richard 'and not the new champion of Group B. His expression suddenly became a little strange, and it was the embrace of his old friend that brought him back to reality.
Contrary to Fonsaq, the top mechanic master Nate's appearance was met with a lot of boos. Even Turia and others, who also represented the Bloody Empire, showed contempt. Fonsaq didn't even hide the hatred in his eyes.
The mechanic master contest was divided into a single contest and the finals. The single contest was a single proficiency contest. After elimination, the top 3 in each contest would enter the finals, and then they would compete in the finals.
Coincidentally, the numbers that Nate and Fonsaq drew were consecutive. Their mechanics platforms were very close. Nate seemed to completely ignore the boos around him and Fonsaq's hatred. He seemed very indifferent, but his slightly trembling eyelids showed his inner uncalmness.
Being notorious and losing his reputation was a true portrayal of his current situation. If it weren't for the halo of the top mechanic master, he wouldn't even be qualified to participate in the contest this time.
The winner is king. In any case, this halo must be kept. Now there were 3 contests in the contest. The champions of the potioneer contest and the master contest were won by the Shadow Empire, and the winner of the mechanic contest belonged to the Fallen Angel Empire. The Bloody Empire, which had almost won the championship in multiple fields in the past, had not won anything so far. This was equivalent to slapping the face of the top powerhouse, the Bloody Empire, who personally supervised the battle.
Once he failed in the mechanic master contest, he didn't know what kind of punishment the other mechanic masters would receive, but he, Nate. Mammon, would definitely die.
In order to regain glory and future, in order to save my life, I must win this battle! Nate's eyes suddenly glowed with a strong light. He concentrated all his attention and truly restored the state and confidence of the top mechanic.
"Fonsaq, you didn't die back then because you were lucky." Nate looked at Fonsaq contemptuously, "No matter what, I will always be the first."
This sentence was actually more of a psychological tactic to deliberately provoke the opponent. Many audiences heard this arrogant provocation, and the boos became louder. Fonsaq stared at Nate. His hateful gaze was almost about to devour him.
At this time, Tetenis, who was walking to the mechanic table at the back, suddenly touched Fonsaq. Fonsaq seemed to wake up and looked at the distant grandstand. There was his current wife, Sally, and his two beloved daughters, Eve and Alian. The dark elf master took a few deep breaths, and the hatred in his eyes was restrained. He sneered, "Let's not talk about your despicable means to improve your skills. The so-called 'first' is just taking advantage of the rules. When it comes to specialization in single specialization, your metal proficiency is not as good as Master Anderson, and your leather proficiency is not as good as me. As for accessories … you are not qualified to be compared with the master at all."
"Win is win, lose is lose." Nate said proudly, "I am still the first now, after this game, and I will still be the same in the future."
According to the rules, the biggest threat was the trio-specialized genius "Arthur", but "Arthur" did not appear in this competition. The remaining duo-specialized master, Horford, was once his disciple. His strength had not yet reached the senior master level, so Nate was very confident in the championship this time.
"You are wrong." Fonsaq suddenly showed an unfathomable smile, "Even if you have the rule advantage of duo-specialized mastery, you can't get first place today. Do you dare to make this bet?"
Nate looked at the participating masters around him. They were basically familiar faces from the previous masters' competitions. He didn't think these people could surpass his strength in a short time, "What do you want to bet?"
"Bet my life."
"Okay!" Fonsaq's answer was within Nate's expectation. No matter what tricks the other party had, in this kind of competition, strength was always the only factor that determined the outcome. Moreover, there were 3 empire leaders in charge, so it was impossible to resort to trickery or fraud. Anyway, it was a competition with a high winning rate, and he would die if he didn't win. As long as he won, he could take one more life from Fonsaq. It was a great contribution no matter how he looked at it, so Nate agreed without hesitation.
Under the witness of many mechanic masters, the two sides signed the soul contract. Before the competition began, such an exciting scene was staged. The atmosphere in the arena once again reached a climax. Most people supported Fonsaq, but some people thought that Fonsaq was too impulsive because Nate was still the most popular person to win the championship according to strength and rules.
After signing the contract, Fonsaq did not pester anymore. He quickly adjusted his state and prepared for the real challenge. Master Xingxing seemed to have a well-thought-out plan for his close friend's bet because he was one of the few people who knew the quasi-grand master strength of Tetenis. Even if the cunning "Aguile" was not there, Nate would definitely lose with Tetenis's attack.
It was just that Tata didn't know that not long ago, Tetenis had successfully surpassed the quasi-grand master realm and became a real grand master.
After the interlude of the 2 masters betting their lives, the mechanic master competition officially began.
As expected, after the elimination round, the names of Nate, Fonsaq, Anderson, Rummenigge, Tetenis, Tata and others appeared on the list of the finals.
The first place was leather mastery Fonsaq, metal mastery Anderson, and accessories mastery Tetenis. Nate chose leather mastery for the elimination round. His result was second only to Fonsaq. He was not in a hurry because the rules of tomorrow's finals were extremely favorable to him. He was confident that he could stage a scene that would turn the tables.
On the day of the finals, the sky was very clear without a trace of clouds. The 2 moons emitted bright light.
The rules of the finals adopted a points system. Each master made 3 works within the specified time. Each work was scored. The one with the highest total score was the champion, who was also the first mechanic master.
In addition to quality, craftsmanship and attributes, the multi-specialization would have additional points bonus. Of course, if the corresponding standard was not reached, the bonus obtained was not as good as the works of a single specialization. To be fair, Nate's metal mastery and leather mastery had reached a fairly high senior master level which was second only to the top level of Anderson and Fonsaq, so the bonus was very high. This was also the most important reason why he could win the previous masters competition championship in a row.
The finals began. After a relatively long wait, the masters finally completed their respective works. The atmosphere in the arena suddenly reached a boiling point. Most of the audience were laymen. They couldn't understand the mysteries shown in the mechanics process. What people cared about most was that as the audience, they could witness the birth of legendary grade equipment.
Anderson's first work, "Slash", metal long sword, quasi-legendary grade, increased strength by 31%, increased slash damage by 32%, and added "Sharpness Skill". 75 points.
The second work, "Darkness", metal dagger, quasi-legendary grade, increased movement speed by 35%, increased waving speed, doubled poison effect, 77 points.
The third work, "Radiant Moon", small metal shield, legendary grade, increased flying defense by 35%, resistance to melee attacks by 40%, slow physical recovery, 91 points. The final total score was 243 points.
Fonsaq's first work, "Shadow", leather cloak, legendary grade, increased movement speed by 41%, increased wind magic by 40%, scored 92 points.
The second work, "Guardian", leather armor, quasi-legendary grade, offset magic damage by 31%, increased blunt weapon defense by 35%, and added "Mirror Skill" to greatly increase the chance of bouncing off attacks. 79 points.
The third work, "Battle Will", leather gloves, quasi-legendary grade, increased weapon swing speed by 30%, increased magic resistance by 30%, poison isolation, 78 points. The final total score was 249 points.
Tata's total score was 223 points; Rummenigge's total score was 217 points …
Although Fonsaq was temporarily ranked first in the rankings, Nate seemed calmer because whether it was Anderson or Fonsaq, although their skills were indeed outstanding, the 3 works were still single mastery. His production process just now was very smooth, and he had reached the peak state. Among these 3 works, 2 were metal mastery, and 1 was leather mastery. Even if the basic score was slightly lower than Anderson and Fonsaq, there was an additional 50 points bonus. He was still the safe first place.
Sure enough, Nate's score came out. The basic score was 229, the additional 50 points, and the total score was 279, surpassing Fonsaq and ranking first.
"Haha! I said that I will always be first, whether it is now or in the future! " Nate's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and he showed undisguised ecstasy, "Fonsaq, you lost! I'll take your life! "
The audience present was restless for a while. The top mechanic master, Nate, really deserves his reputation. He actually surpassed Fonsaq. Then, according to the contract, Fonsaq's life …
Fonsaq didn't show any panic, but he glanced at Nate very disdainfully, "Don't forget the content of our bet. I bet that you can't get first place, not that I want to get first place. This game is not over yet."
"Do you want to struggle on your deathbed?" Nate laughed insolently, "Besides me, who else …"
Before he finished speaking, the exclamation of the appraisal master suddenly came from the arbitration seat. Nate was shocked. He happened to catch a glimpse of Fonsaq's sarcastic sneer, and an ominous premonition suddenly surged in his heart.
He saw many masters flocking to the arbitration seat emotionally. That almost rude gaffe almost ignored the top leaders of the 3 empires.
The leaders of the 3 empires were also surprised because a name appeared on the big screen.
Tetenis.
The first work, nameless, metal knife, excellent grade, score 107.
The second work, nameless, leather hat, excellent grade, score 109.
The third work, nameless, magic ring, excellent grade, score 103.
The basic score is 319, plus 100 for trio-specialized proficiency. The final total score is 419.
Tetenis, who has always been known for being proficient in accessories, is actually trio-specialized! And the score is more than 100! The most incredible thing is that these equipment are only excellent grade!
The originally noisy arena suddenly became quiet. The audience's first reaction was shock- Cheating?
Impossible! Who dares to cheat in front of the 3 empires?
That's right, no one dares to cheat so blatantly. Nate immediately denied this conjecture. According to the scoring standards of the appraisal masters, even the top legendary grade equipment cannot exceed 100 points, but quality is not the only criterion for scoring. If this score is not fake, then there is only 1 possibility … Nate suddenly shuddered.
A master had already shouted here, "Grand master! It's a grand master! "
In an instant, the audience was boiling. The Demon Realm has not had a grand master for nearly 10,000 years. Now there is actually a mechanic grand master!
Compared to the fervent atmosphere in the arena, Nirvana felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. Whether it was triple-specialized or double-specialized, they were all overshadowed by the word "Grandmaster". He finally understood why Fonsaq had been so confident in betting his life with him.
