After activating a Taboo Skill, Lethal Gale's Attributes were frightening. His speed had also skyrocketed.
With Charge's movement speed, Lethal Gale crossed a dozen yards in the blink of an eye. Everyone could only see the afterimages Lethal Gale left behind.
"Fall!"
Lethal Gale shouted, his eyes bloodshot. Without waiting for the Fainted effect of Charge, he used Beheading.
The entire process took less than a breath's worth of time.
Meanwhile, Gentle Snow was no ordinary player. Immediately, she activated a Control Removal Skill and countered the attack with Chop.
Boom!
The sound of metal clashing echoed throughout the forest, dazzling sparks erupting from the clash.
This time, however, Lethal Gale was not sent flying like before. Instead, he was only forced to take a step back, and a damage of over -100 points appeared above his head. To Lethal Gale, who was at full HP, this amount of damage was nothing.
Lethal Gale did not mind that his attack had failed. He had long since realized just how powerful Gentle Snow's Attributes were. He had only used this attack to test the gap between their Strength and Gentle Snow's.
Following which, Lethal Gale's figure blurred, taking advantage of the opportunity to attack Gentle Snow's side. He then abruptly raised his greatsword, slashing at Gentle Snow's blind spots.
Gentle Snow could not control her body's sudden increase in Strength very well. After taking the attack head-on, her posture had crumbled. Practically every part of her body was covered in weak spots.
If Gentle Snow had already reached the Refinement Realm, she would've been able to control her body to the smallest detail. Unfortunately, Gentle Snow had yet to reach the Refinement Realm.
Lethal Gale's greatsword split into four, each of which aimed for Gentle Snow's four weak spots.
Caught off guard, Gentle Snow no longer had the time to adjust her stance. Hence, she forced herself to use Whirlwind Slash. In the next moment, a silvery-white whirlwind suddenly appeared around Gentle Snow. When the four sword lights came into contact with the whirlwind, they scattered. Meanwhile, Lethal Gale was forced to take a step back, giving Gentle Snow a chance to catch her breath.
This Lethal Gale really is a frightening expert. After Gentle Snow put a safe distance between herself and Lethal Gale, she could not help but break out in cold sweat.
The difference in the combat level of both sides was clear at a glance.
She clearly had the upper hand in terms of Strength, and she was also the one who had forced Lethal Gale to retreat. However, Lethal Gale was still able to maintain a steady stance, ready to receive or launch any attack at any time. It was already difficult for her to control the sudden increase in Strength, so it was impossible for her to maintain her posture after the clash.
Virtual reality games were different from normal games. They were no different from real battles.
Most of the time, when facing an opponent's attack, one could clearly see that the attack could be blocked under normal circumstances. However, if the opponent's posture was out of shape, it would be very difficult to block the attack, even if the attack was normal.
Battles between experts were all high-speed battles. The outcome of the battle was a matter of an instant. If one's fighting posture was out of shape, it would be a very fatal thing.
Although Lethal Gale had repelled Gentle Snow, the Berserker had no intention of stopping his assault. Immediately, he charged forward once more, unleashing a barrage of attacks.
As the sword and saber collided, the crowd could only see a series of afterimages.
"Is this a battle between true experts?"
For a time, none of the players in the hall dared to blink, afraid that they would miss the moment of victory.
If any other player were in Gentle Snow's place right now, they would've most likely died before they could even react.
Inside the combat room, Gentle Snow appeared to have the upper hand. Be it in terms of speed or strength, Gentle Snow could repel Lethal Gale every time. However, in reality, Gentle Snow was at a disadvantage. To maintain her combat stance, Gentle Snow constantly retreated. Otherwise, Lethal Gale would have an opportunity to take advantage of her.
Time passed quickly.
When Lethal Gale saw the Starlight Saint's Starlight Saint's three pairs of silvery-white metal wings begin to wither, both their Strength and speed weakening, he could not help but reveal the joy of victory.
"I can't hold on any longer?"
Gentle Snow glanced at the three pairs of silvery-white metal wings. Only the final pair remained.
The outcome of the battle was already obvious. With Lethal Gale's combat techniques, even if she did not fall into a Weakened state after the Starlight Saint's Starlight Saint ended, she would still lose.
However, she refused to give up just like that.
Ever since Lethal Gale had used the Tier 1 Taboo Skill, Life Return, she had realized just how powerful the Berserker was.
The reason she had fought until now was to land the final blow.
In reality, the Starlight Saint's three pairs of metal wings had not started to wither to warn her of losing their Attributes. Instead, once the three pairs of metal wings disappeared, the Starlight Saint would reveal its true power, releasing its final glory.
However, this final power was only enough for one attack.
If Lethal Gale diverted or dodged the attack, the outcome would be self-evident.
To achieve victory, Gentle Snow needed to be even calmer than usual. She needed to have more precise control over her body. She also needed to push her concentration to its limits. Hence, as the metal wings withered, Gentle Snow deliberately weakened her Strength to a point where she could control it. Meanwhile, from Lethal Gale's point of view, Gentle Snow's Strength was continuously decreasing.
Seeing the last of the metal wings disappear, Lethal Gale used the Tier 1 Skill, Sword Aura Slash.
Not only did Sword Aura Slash increase Attack Power, but it also increased the user's attack range by five yards, making dodging attacks much more difficult.
"Six Ultimate Flash!"
Meanwhile, Gentle Snow gave up on all of her excess Strength and focused all of her remaining Strength into this one attack. She then abruptly swung her sword at Lethal Gale.
When the two weapons clashed, a dazzling light blossomed in the air.
Peng! Peng!
As the dazzling light dissipated, the sound of metal armor being pierced echoed throughout the forest. At the same time, the sound echoed throughout the Divine Colosseum's main hall.
Five sword cuts appeared on Lethal Gale's armor, and his HP plummeted to zero.
Meanwhile, the victor was Gentle Snow, whose complexion paled slightly.
Instantly displaying an unimaginable level of concentration took a toll on Gentle Snow's mental strength. In fact, Gentle Snow was currently feeling somewhat exhausted. In addition to the side effects of the Starlight Saint Robe, the current Gentle Snow appeared very delicate.
However, this outcome caused a commotion in the Divine Colosseum's main hall.
"It's over!"
"What happened in that instant? How long did I not see it?"
"Gentle Snow won, just like that?"
"Is this a lie?"
"All hail the Goddess!"
Everyone was utterly confused by the final scene. Lethal Gale had clearly gained the upper hand and was about to defeat Gentle Snow. Yet, such a shocking turn of events had occurred. They didn't even get to see how Lethal Gale had lost before the match ended.
Following the end of the match, Gentle Snow and Lethal Gale left the combat room. Due to their previous agreement, even though Lethal Gale was reluctant, he no longer had the face to cause trouble for the Shifeng. He could only watch as Gentle Snow slowly walked towards the Shifeng, who had been waiting for her.
"Lost. Lethal Gale actually lost, just like that. Moreover, he lost in front of the Starmoon Kingdom's various large Guilds!" Abandoned Wave threw the Witch's Tear, which was worth 5,000 Battle Points, to the ground when he saw the outcome of the match. "Notify Lethal Gale and the others immediately. Since they have humiliated the Blackwater Consortium, they need to make up for it! Find a way to kill Gentle Snow in White River City!"
Gentle Snow's complexion was pale, and she looked very weak. It was obvious that she was suffering from the aftereffects of using a Skill. With Lethal Gale's party's strength, even if the city's guards stopped them, killing Gentle Snow would be a piece of cake.
As long as the Blackwater Consortium killed Gentle Snow in White River City, they would regain all the face they had lost. As for the capture of Lethal Gale's party, it would no longer matter.
"Understood. I'll get it done right away!"
When Lethal Gale heard the command, a cold glint flashed in his eyes as he glared at Gentle Snow, who was chatting happily with Shi Feng.
