Sheyan panted heavily as he leaned against a nearby pillar, wiping off the sweat and blood on his face.
Sweat rolled down his back, leaving a mark on his naked and dirty back. The sweat then seeped into the wound, and there was a burning pain.
Venter's corpse was shockingly 3 metres in front of him.
Sheyan couldn't help but admit, his previous battle strategy was a mistake.
He had previously calculated, if Venter didn't manage to crush him, then even if both parties exchanged blows, with his axe exchanging blows, the one who wouldn't last till the end would be Venter. But Sheyan quickly realized, a battle wasn't a math problem, and that wasn't the way to calculate. Currently, Venter was in his peak condition, he probably had the same basic ability: Dual Wielding Weapon Mastery or Dual Wielding Sword Mastery. Not only was his damage much higher than before, his movements of drawing and retracting his sword were as smooth as flowing water.
The battle hadn't even gone on for 2 minutes, but Sheyan immediately realized something was amiss. Although his HP was higher than Venter, Venter's damage output and attack range were far above him. Furthermore, Venter's attacks were all aimed at his legs. If they were to exchange blows, then Sheyan would be the first to be crippled! His speed was already his weakness, if it really reached that stage, then it would be one disaster after another.
Of course, the reason why Sheyan was in such a predicament was because he hadn't used his trump card 'Ambition'. If not, his current weakness of lacking explosive power would immediately be improved! Once the enemy knew of the existence of 'Ambition', they would naturally have more misgivings in their attacks. Under such circumstances, he would naturally be able to gain the upper hand.
But, just as Sheyan was hesitating on whether to use 'Ambition', he received a helping hand! Venter roared as he raised his two-handed sword to attack. From afar, a scorching hot bullet flew in and struck his wrist! His two-handed sword immediately slanted, slashing past Sheyan's left shoulder, leaving a deep scar on the ground!
This was Mogensha's mysterious ability to envelop the battlefield! Very obviously, Venter's momentum was disrupted, and Sheyan easily dodged it before returning with a hatchet. Mogensha who was battling with Diaz on the rooftop was actually able to divert his attention to lend a helping hand. This was sufficient to show that Mogensha had already occupied an absolute advantage in that battle!
At this moment, Sheyan said seriously.
A sentence that went straight to Venter's heart.
"Dani's seed should be in your body."
This sentence caused Venter's fighting spirit to drop by eighty percent!
To Venter, he was already used to charging at the front like a hot knife through butter, watching his enemies crumble under his 28 points of strength! After 3 slashes and 2 slashes, Sheyan had thoroughly eliminated his foe. However, he had already used his' Berserk 'ability today, his strength was unable to deal any additional crushing damage! Therefore, it was inevitable that they would enter an unfamiliar war of attrition. As time passed, the vigor in his heart, as well as his fierce and untamed Berserker style, began to slacken.
Furthermore, Sheyan's words caused Venter to think of Dani …..
"Dani's seed is still with me! This is her only hope of resurrection! "
This sentence was something that Sheyan didn't say out loud, but Venter couldn't help but recall it! Thus, Venter's intention to retreat was born. However, his dual handed sword was a classic example of an offensive but not a defensive one. Sheyan obviously sensed Venter's intention to retreat, but he didn't push him too hard. Instead, he didn't allow him to easily escape. Furthermore, he constantly forced Venter towards a spacious area, so that Mogensha could launch a surprise attack from afar.
Naturally, when the Banks Syndicate set up this ambush, they had already prepared an escape route for them. Venter's target was an unremarkable little house on the east side of the battlefield. Yet when he was about to approach that little house, Mogensha who was supposed to be dueling with Diaz on top of a distant skyscraper, had mysteriously appeared at a building's window 20 metres away! The golden AK in his hands shockingly spat out a glaring tongue of flame!
Venter was stunned by this sudden attack, he gritted his teeth and attempted to escape. But Sheyan rushed forward and chopped down on his thigh with his axe!
Although Venter was only 10 metres away from that house, these 10 metres were like a natural moat! He furiously brandished his dual handed sword, Sheyan would immediately retreat a few steps. Instead, Mogensha would unleash a torrent of bullets from his AK. Whenever Venter attempted to advance, Sheyan would rush forward and entangle him.
Thus, Venter died. For someone like him who focused on advancing courageously, once he had the intention to retreat, it would be the start of his own calamity. Especially for someone like Venter who was purposely created for a party. His strengths were extremely obvious, but his weaknesses were also extremely prominent. If he had a party member, he could compensate for his weaknesses. But if he didn't have a party member, once his weakness was grasped by others, then he would fall into a perilous situation!
*****
Sheyan leaned against the wall and panted for a moment. He picked up the blood red key that Venter dropped after his death. After taking a deep breath, he lifted his head and smiled towards Mogensha.
"Beautifully done, you got rid of Diaz? Honestly speaking, 80% of the credit for this key belongs to you. Come and take it. "
Even though they were situated at the intersection between two buildings, and the surviving contestants outside couldn't see the situation inside. Mogensha stood 20 metres away, vigilantly surveying his surroundings. His gaze was complicated as he asked.
"Diaz escaped. That guy's ability is indeed not bad, the Ministry of Magic's barrier was ineffective against him ….. you know, I'm the leader of the Symbiosis sect's long range team."
Sheyan shrugged his shoulders unconcernedly.
"Seventy-two hours ago, I heard from Gale – God bless his soul – so what?"
"So, if I tell you, I've already received news from the Metals professor and Fanu, would you believe me?"
Sheyan replied.
"I believe, what did they say?"
Mogensha replied.
"They will arrive in 5 minutes."
Sheyan's expression instantly changed.
"What are you trying to say?"
Mogensha paused for a moment, retreating behind his cover.
"My perceptive sense is 18 points, and I've acquired an ability called 'True Insight'. I can gather the battle data of other contestants. "
Sheyan calmly replied.
"So it's like that. If that's the case, you can check the battle records without me noticing ….. hmm, no wonder you had such a huge contrast at the start. So what do you want?"
Mogensha's reply was rather unexpected.
"I don't know what your intentions are, and I don't wish to know. But I don't wish to be your enemy. If you promise not to attack me, I previously obtained an item called 'Special Floo Powder'. It can be used in a non-combat state. Its effect is to immediately reach train No. 5972 which is parked at platform 9 and 3/4 towards Hogwarts, and immediately return to the nightmare realm. I definitely won't meet with the Metals professor and divulge your secret. "
To return to this world, one had to board the Hogwarts express. Mogensha's words, obviously meant he intended to immediately return to this world, and not involve himself in this matter. In actual fact, with Mogensha's scheming and shrewdness, if he wanted to harm Sheyan, exposing this matter at this moment was the most foolish decision. Previously, he should have concealed this matter without batting an eyelid. He only needed to delay for 2-3 minutes, and wait for the Metals professor and Fanu to arrive. Then he could secretly expose this matter! Naturally he would have the upper hand. From this, one could see Mogensha's sincerity in not wanting to be Sheyan's enemy.
Of course there was another possibility. Mogensha had already betrayed Sheyan to the Metals professor, and now he turned around to express goodwill to Sheyan. This seemingly well-rounded method was actually the most foolish. Because as long as Sheyan met with the Metals professor, there was a huge possibility that Mogensha's lies would be exposed! This would definitely cause both sides to despise Mogensha. Based on Mogensha's current shrewdness, he wouldn't choose such a method.
Sheyan had already considered the possibility of someone seeing through his attributes. Although there was no way to check other people's battle information in this world, but everything has an exception. He had already guessed that there could be someone who could check his attributes. According to his current understanding of the rules of the realm, the most likely person to have such an ability was definitely a long range physical attack profession. Because perceptive sensing was their secondary attribute apart from agility!
Hence when they were ambushed by the Banks Syndicate, Sheyan purposely led the support type contestants to delay. His main objective was to hope that the more long range physical attack professions of the Symbiosis sect died the better. But his main objective was to fish in troubled waters, and see if he could get a share of the loot from the Metals professor's plot for the philosopher's stone. If he allowed all the long range professions of the Symbiosis sect to die here, then it wouldn't be in line with his plan.
Moreover if Sheyan didn't act, then after Mogensha and the rest died, he didn't have the confidence to rely on those support type contestants to deal with the remaining Banks Syndicate members. But he didn't expect a small probability event to really happen.
There was actually someone in the Symbiosis sect who possessed this ability, and even survived that chaotic battle. No doubt this was a small probability event. But fortunately, for some unknown reason, Mogensha actually abandoned his loyalty to the party, and wasn't willing to be Sheyan's enemy! (To be continued.)
