In the arena, two swift figures were fighting back and forth.
One of them was a masked man wearing a wide black cloak. If Angor was not mistaken, this was the culprit behind the Paradise Game Benson mentioned, the Masked Man.
The other one was a middle-aged female wizard who was dressed in a very unique way.
She wore a wide-brimmed white gauze hat on top of her golden hair. Her face was covered with a thick layer of white powder, golden eyeshadow, and golden lip gloss.
She looked like some kind of shiny white machine. Her clothes matched her veil and makeup very well. Her upper body was still white and gold with an open collar and a lot of golden lace. Her waist was abnormally thin. Below, she wore a baroque-style white and gold tutu skirt. The skirt was straight in front and full at the back.
Even if she kept moving, the shape of the skirt did not change at all. From this, it could be seen how tough the support inside the dress was.
Her outfit was not too flashy in the wizarding world. Many mortal ladies of noble families dressed more exaggeratedly than her in order to compete with each other.
The only thing that made Angor complain was that the color was too bright.
Pure white and pure gold, plus the faint light from the dome and the light from her energy release, she looked like an artificial light source. She was so dazzling that it was difficult to look at her directly … Well, literally dazzling.
According to Dorcas' introduction, this dazzling female wizard was Elder Yue of the "Tree, Sun, Moon" of the Biros Family.
"The two in the arena are not bad. They're fighting back and forth. Looks like they're evenly matched …"
It was Dorcas who spoke. However, before he could finish, Elder Yue was hit in the chest by the Masked Man. She fell straight down from the sky onto the arena.
Dorcas did not feel like he was slapped in the face. He still maintained his "All-Mouthy King" persona and continued to babble, "It's fine.
Elder Yue was just careless. I believe she'll counterattack soon. "
As soon as he finished speaking, the Masked Man's figure flashed and appeared beside Elder Yue. Elder Yue's pupils shrank. He was about to raise his blood aura to defend himself, but the Masked Man was too fast. He kicked Elder Yue's waist.
Elder Yue was sent flying for more than twenty meters. He finally hit the dome and fell to the ground.
"Ah … so bad." Dorcas looked at Elder Yue who had fallen to the ground and he could not help but shake his head with a sigh. "But, it's alright. He was only kicked once and at most, his outer layer of defense was broken. The injury shouldn't be too serious."
In the next second, right before Dorcas's eyes, Elder Yue immediately vomited out a large pool of blood.
Judging from the amount of blood on the stage, this was definitely not what he meant by 'not too serious'.
This was because Dorcas had no intention of hiding anything.
A group of people were waiting around.
Even the three official Magi who were trapped in the spatial seal heard his' explanation '.
At this moment, everyone was glaring at Dorcas, the jinx.
Dorcas's expression didn't change as he said, "There was a slight error in judgment."
"You call this a misjudgment?" Yakee looked at Dorcas angrily.
Dorcas glanced at Yakee. "Why are you mad at me?
All of you being imprisoned and Elder Yue being beaten up was not done by me. "
Yakee said, "You can shut up if you don't know how to talk!"
"I can shut up, but you can lend me your leg to play with for a while. I promise I won't say anything." Dorcas stared at the sickle-shaped leg in Yakee's hand. This was the leg of a Blade Shadow Monster and was very valuable.
Yakee's eyes suddenly turned red and he was furious. "Are you provoking our Bilos Family?"
Dorcas snorted. "So what if I'm provoking you? Believe it or not, if you say one more word, I'll dismember all your limbs right now. "
"You!"
Yakee wanted to say more, but before he could speak, Sea Hawk interrupted him. "Yakee, now is not the time to quarrel."
After a pause, Sea Hawk looked at Dorcas. "I apologize to Red Sword Magi on behalf of Yakee."
Dorcas said, "I don't accept verbal apologies. If you want to apologize, show your sincerity."
The corner of Sea Hawk Adept's eyes twitched. He ignored Dorcas' words and continued, "I believe that Red Sword Adept is also someone who has been dragged into this game of paradise. We are all on the same boat now. There is no need to argue over such a small matter."
Dorcas snorted. "Who's in the same boat with you? I'm just here to watch the show."
Sea Hawk frowned. "You want to leave, right? If you want to leave, you'll have to fight with this masked man."
"If I want to leave, I'll leave. No one can stop me." Dorcas sneered.
Sea Hawk naturally didn't believe him. He only thought that Dorcas was arrogant and thought he could easily deal with the masked man. After all, bloodline Magi all had this problem. They were confident and arrogant.
Yakee was the same. He had just become an official Magus not long ago and hadn't fought with many Magi, but he had already been brainwashed into thinking he was invincible among his peers.
Even the Sea Hawk Adepts had to admit that bloodline Adepts were the most powerful of their peers. However, it didn't mean that they were invincible.
The masked man's strength was unfathomable. He cut off Yakee's leg with a spatial spell. If he hadn't admitted defeat for Yakee, Yakee might have been cut into pieces.
If Dorcas also underestimated the masked man's strength because of his arrogance, there was a high chance that he would be defeated by the masked man.
If they wanted to leave, one of them had to defeat the masked man.
Now that Elder Yue was showing signs of weakness, Sea Hawk naturally placed his hopes on the newcomer, Dorcas. Although he didn't know why Dorcas had appeared in Paradise, it wasn't the time to delve into it. Moreover, Dorcas was a powerful bloodline Magus. He was more suitable than Elder Yue to fight the masked man.
"Red Sword Magus, please don't be careless. This masked man is very strong. Moreover, his spatial spells are very strong. It's enough to make up for his weakness against a bloodline Magus." Sea Hawk said sincerely.
However, Dorcas still looked indifferent. "I don't care who he is. Don't keep changing the topic. You should apologize. Even if you want to apologize, you should at least look like you are apologizing. "
Yakee heard that Dorcas was still thinking about his leg and looked at him with anger.
However, Yakee didn't dare to make a sound.
Dorcas's threat was still effective. He was now heavily injured and trapped in the spatial seal. Even if Dorcas couldn't break the seal, he still had plenty of ways to kill Yakee. Dorcas wouldn't be afraid if he really wanted to kill Yakee. After all, he was a wandering wizard with no background. He could leave at any time.
Yakee wouldn't dare to compete with Dorcas in terms of shamelessness.
Sea Hawk remained silent for a moment. "Please believe that we have good intentions. If Red Sword Magus really wants something, as long as you can defeat the masked man, the Bilos Family will do our best to fulfill your request. I believe Elder Yue will agree as well. "
Dorcas humphed. "If you really have good intentions, you should give me Yakee's leg right now. Don't just make promises without giving me anything in return."
Sea Hawk didn't know what to say when he saw how greedy Dorcas was. Whatever. He already said what he needed to say. Dorcas didn't need to rush him. If he wanted to leave, he would have to face the masked man first.
With that in mind, Sea Hawk chose to remain silent.
When Sea Hawk didn't say anything, Ullus spoke up. However, she wasn't talking to Dorcas. She was talking to Angor.
Ullus didn't recognize Angor, but she could tell that he was also a wizard.
Compared to Dorcas, the brute, Angor seemed more rational. It would be easier to talk to him than Dorcas.
"Sir, I don't think we've met before. Do you mind if we get to know each other?" Ullus spoke in a roundabout way. She wanted to know who Angor was, about the tricks the masked man used, and about why they were in Paradise.
Angor didn't pay attention to Ullus' complicated words at all. However, it just so happened that he wanted to find someone to ask about the Spirit Speed Clone. Wu Lusi's conversation gave him a good opportunity.
"We can talk about that later. Before that, I want to ask you a question, beautiful lady. May I have the honor of it? "
Ullus tucked her hair behind her ear and gave Angor a charming smile. "Of course."
"Did you see any invisible but living wind elemental spirits nearby, Madam?"
Ullus didn't know what to say. That's it?
Angor blinked. Yes, that's it.
Ullus remained silent for a moment and shook her head. "I don't know. If you're looking for wind elemental spirits, I can introduce you to the Elysium Fields. "
Angor shook his head again. "I'm not looking for wind elemental spirits."
Sea Hawk suddenly spoke up. "I think I know something."
Angor quickly looked at Sea Hawk.
Sea Hawk didn't beat around the bush. "I don't know if I saw a wind elemental spirit or not, but I did see wind elemental spirits around the masked man."
"You're saying that on purpose, aren't you? Trying to trick us into going to the arena? "
Sea Hawk shook his head again. "No, I did see wind elemental spirits around him. Like a Breeze Spirit. About five or six gusts of wind. "
There were six gusts of wind elemental spirits that disappeared from Paradise, which matched the number mentioned by Sea Hawk.
Therefore, Angor began to believe the old man's words.
"What happened next?" Angor glanced at the masked man who was still fighting Elder Yue and Sea Hawk. "There's no wind around him now. Do you know where the wind elemental spirits went?"
Sea Hawk replied, "I don't know about that. But I was the first one to go to the arena, and I still sensed wind elemental spirits around the masked man. "
Sea Hawk meant that the masked man came into contact with Speed Spirit's clone before going to the arena.
"If you're looking for wind elemental spirits, the masked man might have taken them into his space," Sea Hawk suggested.
However, he wasn't right.
The masked man's space was either a storage space or an exile space. Either way, the masked man had already left his current space.
Speed Spirit was currently hiding in Elmi's shadow. Through the connection, Angor could tell that Speed Spirit's clone was still nearby and did not enter another dimension.
This meant that Speed Spirit's clone was still here.
As for its exact location, Angor could guess from Sea Hawk's words that it was in the arena.
Speed Spirit's clone should be in the arena. Or rather, on the masked man's body.
Angor felt a headache coming on. If he wanted to find the clone, he would have to fight the masked man.
So he had to go to the arena?
Angor wasn't afraid of fighting the masked man. What troubled him was that if he had to fight the masked man, he would have to enter the masked man's contract.
It wasn't a fair fight to begin with.
Besides, could he really use the masked man's body to fight? Angor was doubtful about this.
Was there a way to find the Speedy Doppelganger without entering the arena? Angor thought about it carefully but couldn't come up with a solution.
Going to the arena meant entering the contract. If he didn't go to the arena, he wouldn't be able to find the clone.
In other words, as long as he insisted on finding the Spiritual Speed Clone, he would have to enter the arena no matter what. He would have to face the masked man and enter the contract.
Was there really no other way?
…
On the arena, Elder Yue and the masked man were still in a stalemate.
For apprentices like Karel, they probably still felt that the battle was too intense to determine the victor.
However, all the wizards here knew what was going on.
They might be confused at first, but after such a long stalemate, they could tell that the masked man was completely dominating Elder Yue.
But what confused them was that the masked man didn't do that when he could have won the battle. Instead, he kept going back and forth with Elder Yue. Why?
Was he toying with Elder Yue?
Or was the masked man trying to buy time so that he could observe Angor and Dorcas?
However, no matter which one it was, there would be an end to it eventually.
The masked man might still be able to hold on, but Elder Yue couldn't hold on for much longer.
After being kicked several times, Elder Yue coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed on the ground.
There was no need for a judge to announce this. Everyone knew that Elder Yue lost.
Fortunately, Elder Yue didn't lose an arm or a leg like the others. Unfortunately, Elder Yue fainted.
After Elder Yue lost, the masked man sealed Elder Yue with a space seal just like he did to the other three wizards. Next, the masked man waved a hand and teleported Elder Yue to the bottom of the arena.
With that done, the masked man closed the dome of the arena.
He looked at Angor and Dorcas.
He didn't say anything, but the look in his eyes said it all.
He was asking for a fight!
