After Blackjack left, Angor began to think about the previous match. Although he won easily, if Blackjack didn't use the Tongue's Kiss at the beginning and used the offensive cards in his hand, the result might have been different.
All four of Blackjack's cards were instant-cast, and their effects were outstanding.
Blackjack's carelessness and fixed thinking caused him to miss the only chance to turn the situation around. Angor gained some valuable battle experience because of that.
"I wonder which school Blackjack belongs to. Those cards are really good. They're almost as good as magic scrolls," Angor muttered to himself. Maybe he should ask Sunders about it. After all, the two of them were quite close.
The second match was between Baron Milk and Ashen Warrior.
Judging from the name, Angor knew that Ashen Warrior was a Bloodline apprentice. Bloodline apprentices were unrivaled among their peers, but they had to acquire a powerful bloodline to improve themselves first. Ashen Warrior was a level-1 apprentice who had not found a suitable bloodline yet. His punches and kicks still carried the air of mortals. Angor only needed to cast a Frost to control the field and defeated the opponent with his alchemy weapon.
Angor gained 13 merit points for defeating Ashen Warrior, which was not as good as Blackjack's loot.
Angor's third match was against an Elementalist apprentice who was good at using cold fire. Again, he won easily.
Angor won three matches in a row, which made the other contestants in the backstage area look at him in a new light. Angor's fighting style was a bit shameless, but alchemy weapons were also a part of one's strength. No one complained about Angor's victory.
However, most of the contestants were curious about Angor's alchemy weapon.
Some guessed that Angor's weapon was a long-range weapon like a bow because they saw a small golden arrow shot out from Angor's sleeve. But if it was really a bow, could he use it with one hand?
Others guessed that it was a mechanical alchemy weapon similar to a blow dart, which could release small arrows at will.
However, blow dart did not deal much damage, so more people assumed that it was a high-speed and explosive weapon similar to a crossbow.
Their guesses were close, but they were all wrong.
Angor won all three matches on the first day, and his score was fixed at 9 points.
After the match, everyone went back to their homes.
Angor put on his robe and left the Sky Tower. Soon, he noticed that someone was following him.
Angor frowned. He knew someone would try to steal the treasure, but he didn't expect someone to act so fast. Angor sighed and ignored the little tail behind him.
With Toby on guard, the actions of the people behind him could not escape his grasp. He planned to go straight home, but since someone was following him, he decided to take a detour around the underground market.
There were many shops and people in the underground market. Angor was sure that they wouldn't dare to do anything here, so he chose to move boldly. He wanted to get rid of his pursuers by choosing the most convenient places to hide.
If the man was a normal human being, it would only be a matter of time before he got rid of him. However, Angor had underestimated the abilities of supernatural beings. Even a level-1 apprentice could learn some strange secret spells.
There was an apprentice who was an expert in canine summoning. With the canine's keen sense of smell, Angor could not get rid of him easily.
Angor walked around the underground market several times and still could not get rid of his pursuers. He shook his head and decided not to hide anymore. The alchemy weapon he made wasn't just a simple golden arrow. He also made a special weapon that was more powerful. With Toby's power and the alchemy weapon he made, as long as there weren't any rank three apprentices, it shouldn't be a problem to deal with two or three people.
With that in mind, Angor stopped playing hide-and-seek and walked to the ground.
The people behind him seemed to have noticed Angor's change of attitude. They stopped following him and stayed about ten meters behind him. They did not try to hide their ferocious and savage expressions when looking at Angor.
Angor noticed that there were four people following him, all of whom he saw in the contestant area on the first level of the Sky Tower. Since they were all from the first level, they should be at most level-1 apprentices. Angor calmed down even more.
After returning to the apprentice town, Angor did not go back to his home. Instead, he headed to the forest outside the town. Since he was going to fight anyway, he might as well find a secluded place to settle it.
The mirror world looked like a paradise, but only if you were willing to live as a hermit for the rest of your life.
Tree Spirit Garden was never a safe place. There were countless conflicts between apprentices. Life and death could be decided with a single word. Every inch of the ground could be a burial ground.
Angor moved quickly. The four people behind him also followed him with evil grins on their faces. Angor even heard them discussing how to divide the loot after killing someone.
Unscrupulous. This was the real Brute Cavern.
Angor walked into the forest and was soon surrounded by the four people behind him.
"Baron Milk, right? Give us your alchemy weapon, and we might spare your life," said a bearded man with a headscarf. There was a yellow-and-white hunting dog nestled by his feet.
A half-naked, sexy woman was holding a lace folding fan. Her two large water balls swayed up and down as if they were free from gravity. "Hey, cutie, I really like that weapon."
The last two people were twins wearing black and white Magus robes. They were not wearing hats. They looked almost the same except for some details. The man in the white robe was wearing a water-colored earring, while the man in the black robe was wearing a flame-patterned earring.
"Your weapon suits my big brother well. This is my birthday present for him tomorrow," said the man in the white robe.
"Your weapon suits my big brother well. This is my birthday present for him tomorrow," said the man in the black robe.
"Big brother."
"Little brother."
The twins looked at each other affectionately.
"I don't care who you are. Let's fight." Angor did not want to waste time talking. He did not want to know who these people were.
Angor suddenly waved his hand, and a shadow descended from the sky and rushed toward the bearded man with the hunting dog at a speed that no one could see clearly.
At the same time, small golden arrows were shot out from Angor's sleeves. The golden light from the book looked like falling petals.
"Kid! Don't you dare! " Before the man with the hunting dog could finish his threat, the black figure tore his throat open and killed him along with his dog.
Of course, it was Toby who was helping Angor.
Toby did not stop after he succeeded. He used the momentum to jump and dashed at the half-naked woman again.
Angor was not worried about Toby at all. His main target was the brothers on the other side. For some reason, he had a feeling that the brothers were not easy to deal with.
Under the barrage of golden arrows, the brothers actually grabbed each other's hands and held each other's hands tightly. Angor could not bear to watch. A fire screen emerged from the elder brother's body, while a water screen emerged from the younger brother's body. The two elements, water and fire, intertwined together just like that.
They formed a barrier of fire and water. The golden arrows could only break through the first layer of the barrier and were bounced back by the second layer.
"Brothers united, Water and Fire Barrier!"
"Brothers united, Water and Fire Barrier!"
Angor felt that something was amiss when he heard the brothers shouting the same slogan. Why did they have to shout the names of their skills? What kind of feeling was this?
Angor complained in his mind, but he did not stop. He had more than two hundred golden arrows prepared. He did not believe that the brothers could last forever.
They spent their magic power to resist, but he only needed to move his fingers. Who was good and who was bad was immediately clear.
Angor kept shooting arrows. Suddenly, he heard a woman's scream from behind, followed by a loud explosion.
Angor glanced around, and the two brothers noticed the battle as well.
The man with the hunting dog was dead, while the half-naked woman was kicked into the ground by a shadow. The loud explosion was caused by the woman's fall.
"What's that? Was that Baron Milk's familiar? How can it be so strong? "The man in the white robe exclaimed.
"Brother, I saw it!" The man in the black robe said.
"It's a bird!" The two shouted at the same time.
Why did he feel like he was watching a TV drama when the two brothers were talking to each other?
The Fire and Water Barrier was indeed powerful. Angor could not break it in a short time. On the other side, Toby finished his battle quickly and dashed toward the brothers like an arrow.
"Shit, brother! I'm running out of mana!"
"Me too!"
Just as Toby was about to break through the barrier of the two brothers, a surprised voice sounded from the side.
"To- Toby?"
Toby stopped and looked at the source of the voice. Angor looked over as well.
A freckled young man wearing a pair of goggles on his head was following a middle-aged man who looked luxurious and elegant. They slowly walked out of the forest path.
"Davy?" Angor called the young man's name in surprise.
The freckled young man was indeed Davy. Angor did not recognize the middle-aged man beside him.
Due to Davy's interruption, Angor and Toby did not pay attention to the brothers.
"It's Master Prome. Did Baron Milk's alchemy weapon come from him?" The brothers seemed to have recognized the middle-aged man.
They exchanged a glance and nodded at the same time. "Run!" They shouted at the same time.
The brothers ran in different directions. One ran toward the deeper part of the forest, while the other ran toward the outer edge.
Angor was alerted by the wind behind him. When he looked back, the two brothers were already far away. Toby waved his wings. Should I go after them?
He considered for a moment and shook his head.
