The instant the pitch-black chains bound Hell Fiend, Hell Fiend bellowed and activated a Control Removal Skill, breaking free from the chains. He then instinctively brandished his staff and used Frost Ring.
A frosty aura then spread into the surroundings.
However, the frosty aura did not stop the figure that had suddenly ambushed him. On the contrary, the figure closed the distance between them.
In the next moment, a streak of blue light streaked across the room.
Unable to use Blink immediately, Hell Fiend disappeared from his original spot and reappeared 20 yards away from the corridor.
Only then did Hell Fiend discover his attacker.
It was a man wearing a Black Cloak. Under the hood, which obscured his face, was a pair of pitch-black eyes. Silver flames flickered in those eyes, and just looking at those flames sent chills down one's spine. Even though this man was right in front of Hell Fiend, it was as if he did not exist. Hell Fiend's five senses could not sense any tension or pressure from this man.
"Who are you?" With a single glance, Hell Fiend could tell that this man's strength was not the slightest bit inferior to his. A hint of fear flashed in his eyes.
If not for his perception of his surroundings, allowing him to discover the chains and figure that had suddenly appeared, he would've most likely died already.
Praying Lotus, who sat inside the room, was similarly dumbfounded.
She had never seen such a foolish expert before.
She had never imagined that someone would actually dare to kill Hell Fiend here.
Setting aside Hell Fiend's combat standards, what was this place?
What kind of place was this? This was King's Return's main headquarters. Moreover, this was the Divine Colosseum. The NPCs guarding this place were even more powerful than the NPCs guarding the streets of Light City. Every one of these NPCs was a Level 200 NPC. Trying to kill Hell Fiend was simply suicide.
However, Praying Lotus reacted quickly and hurriedly cast a Spell to provide cover for Hell Fiend.
Meanwhile, in Praying Lotus's opinion, this foolish expert was none other than the Shifeng himself.
Shifeng naturally knew that taking action in the Divine Colosseum was extremely risky. However, it was precisely because of this that he had a higher chance of succeeding.
Moreover, he had chosen to kill Hell Fiend in the narrow corridor on the second floor. This place was extremely disadvantageous for magical classes. Compared to killing Hell Fiend on the streets or in the fields, his chances of success were much higher here.
In addition, the Divine Colosseum's NPCs were all in the first-floor hall. From the time they discovered him to the time they arrived in the corridor, it would take them at least ten seconds. Compared to attacking him on the streets, NPCs would take much longer to arrive.
"Not going to speak? Then go to hell! " When Hell Fiend saw the motionless and silent Shifeng, he started chanting an incantation. At the same time, he fired several Frost Arrows at the Shifeng.
In the Divine Colosseum, he had an absolute advantage. Although the terrain was extremely unfavorable to him, he did not need to defeat the Shifeng. He only needed to stall for time and wait for the NPCs to arrive. Then, the battle would be over.
He didn't believe that the Shifeng alone could kill him in a short period of time. Moreover, with the help of the Ancient Book, he wasn't afraid even if he had to fight those old monsters, let alone a brainless person.
The Frost Arrows pierced through the Shifeng's body and slammed into the wall one by one.
Meanwhile, Hell Fiend's expression darkened when he sensed that someone had appeared behind him. However, as Shifeng had not revealed any killing intent at all, even though Hell Fiend had long since reached the Void Realm, he had been a step too slow to notice the Shifeng.
Not only were they so close to each other, but his reaction was also half a step too slow. He had also used quite a few of his Lifesaving Skills. It was impossible for him to dodge the Frost Arrows.
Just as Hell Fiend was about to activate Ice Barrier to protect himself …
The Shifeng had unsheathed the Abyssal Blade and executed Blade Liberation and Chop at Hell Fiend's back.
Originally, the mental pressure the Abyssal Blade exerted when it was unsheathed was extraordinary. After activating a Skill, the mental pressure increased by several times. If an ordinary player were in Hell Fiend's shoes, their minds would most likely freeze instantly and they would fall into a state of fear. Even standing would be difficult for them. However, for an expert like Hell Fiend, although the mental pressure was not so severe, it would, more or less, cause his mind to feel stuffy.
Although the mental pressure only affected a portion of the Shifeng's enemies, before activating the Abyssal Blade, the Shifeng had activated the Soul Fire's power, allowing his mind to remain incomparably calm and clear. Even when facing the mental pressure, the Soul Fire's power made the mental pressure feel like a gentle breeze. The Shifeng was not affected in the slightest.
Hell Fiend was already half a step slower than the Abyssal Blade. In addition, this momentary delay allowed the Abyssal Blade to slice through the Oracle's Magic Shield and the Elementalist's Ice Shield. The Abyssal Blade did not even manage to activate Ice Barrier.
The power of Blade Liberation doubled the Shifeng's Strength and Agility Attributes. Although the Shifeng's Attributes had already been weakened, after the upgrade, their Attack Power was still much higher than before.
Although the Magic Shield and Ice Shield had absorbed a significant portion of the damage, the critical hit from Chop still dealt -13,418 damage to Hell Fiend. To Hell Fiend, who only had a little over 11000 HP, this amount of damage was more than enough to devour all of his HP.
"Just … who are you?!"
When Hell Fiend saw his HP rapidly decreasing, he turned to glare at Shi Feng, his eyes filled with reluctance. If he had activated Ice Barrier right from the start, he could have waited until the NPCs arrived. However, due to the fact that they were in the Divine Colosseum, he had underestimated his opponent's strength. However, no matter how unwilling Hell Fiend was, he still collapsed to the ground, dropping a piece of equipment and an ancient tome.
At this moment, Praying Lotus's gaze towards the Shifeng was incomparably solemn. She no longer looked down on him as before.
Everything had happened too quickly.
She had never imagined that Hell Fiend would die so easily. He had not even managed to activate Ice Barrier in time. If she were to tell others about this, nobody would believe her.
However, it had indeed happened.
Although killing Hell Fiend in the Divine Colosseum was an extremely foolish action, the truly foolish ones were herself. She had completely forgotten that an expert of Hell Fiend's standard would not dare to act recklessly without something to rely on.
Moreover, the mental pressure that had suddenly appeared was simply too frightening.
Even Praying Lotus, who was relatively far away, felt her mind go blank. If she allowed herself to get close, only death would await her.
The reason why experts were experts was because of their fast reactions. However, that kind of mental pressure caused her thoughts to slow down …
In a fight between experts, a moment of hesitation could be fatal, not to mention a moment of stupor.
"Just who is he?" Praying Lotus looked at the cloaked Shifeng, her mind constantly comparing him to the famous experts of God's Domain. However, she could not find an expert with an aura as cold and ethereal as the man before her. He was like an emotionless robot.
Just as Praying Lotus was guessing Shifeng's identity, Shifeng hurriedly stored the equipment and ancient tome Hell Fiend had dropped. He then used Space Movement and silently left the Divine Colosseum.
After Shifeng left, a team of Level 200 spear-wielding guards arrived at the scene.
However, aside from Hell Fiend, who was lying on the ground, and Praying Lotus, who was in the room, there was no one else in the corridor.
Not long after the guards arrived, some players who were curious about the commotion among the guards also arrived at the scene.
When these players discovered Hell Fiend lying on the ground, none of them dared to believe their eyes.
Lord Hell Fiend, King's Return's Adjudicator, had actually been killed in the Divine Colosseum …
