Chapter 548: The Arena of Life and Death
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Everyone once again returned to the arena. Kyle and Jero sat on the high platform. They were waiting for the competition to start.
Kyle’s face was full of smiles, while Jero’s face was full of endless worry and fear.
The city looked like ruins at that mont because Sir Ian who was originally the city wall had collapsed. anwhile, the Phantoms gathered were like hyenas. They looked at Vincent and Kurt with greedy and fierce eyes as they were the most perfect prey in their hearts!
Kyle suddenly said, “Since the competition rules have changed today, there is no need for so many arenas. Only two arenas will be used. Third brother’s n can guard one each. The rest of you can go up and challenge one another. Whoever is stronger will be able to devour the other!”
“Long live His Highness, Kyle!”
All of the Phantoms cheered excitedly and rushed into the arena impatiently. So of them even began to secretly use so small tricks to obstruct their companions beside them in order to stand out from their competitors.
Vincent and Kurt exchanged glances amidst the chaotic scene. They walked to one of the arenas calmly and waited quietly for their opponents to show up.
“Boom!”
A loud sound suddenly ca from below the stage, and a terrifying aura instantly filled the entire arena, causing the Phantoms to calm down. They turned their heads to look in the distance.
At the back of the crowd, there stood a withered old man. His cold gaze caused everyone to shudder, and the crowd subconsciously took the initiative to make way for him.
“Hillock is one of Prince Kyle’s guards, and he has long been promoted to a level 50 Holy Phantom. If he makes a move, then we will have no chance of winning!”
Everyone was shocked. They could not help but discuss the old man’s extraordinary background.
The old man did not pay attention to the others. His gaze was fixed on Vincent who was on the stage. He then slowly walked up to the stage.
Vincent’s eyes could not help but narrow when he saw the old Phantom. This was because the Phantom in front of him looked like the Dragon King who was once trapped outside of Black Hole Zero for decades!
This ant that the Phantom Race had discovered the existence of the Dragon King over the years. However, they did not care and left him to deal with monsters every day. In addition to that, they also stole his appearance.
Vincent retracted his gaze and turned his head to ask Kurt, “Since you are able to build the teleportation array of the Esville Race, can you activate the teleportation arrays left behind by other races?”
Kurt imdiately said, “Teleportation arrays are not classified as high-level technology. The teleportation techniques of any race are similar. As long as there is a way to activate an array, I will find it and complete it!”
Vincent nodded and said in a deep voice, “Okay, then let’s have a good fight today. After that, there are more important things waiting for us to do!”
Kurt imdiately covered himself with illusory dragon scales and shouted proudly, “Anyone who wants to die, co up and face !”
As the other Phantoms did not dare to face Hillock, they all turned their gazes to look at Kurt.
However, Hillock suddenly said, “Today, these two are mine. Whoever dares to snatch them from will be killed!”
Every Phantom imdiately lowered their heads with ugly expressions. They did not dare to make a move against Kurt and Vincent.
On the high platform, Kyle was leaning against the back of his chair. He said to Jero with a casual expression, “Third brother, although Hillock is only a level 50 creature, he’s one of the top few experts under in terms of combat strength! This is because the target he replicated is a very powerful genius among humans, and he also has a unique special ability. The only flaw is that his strength is slightly lower. Fortunately, you sent two such suitable tonics today, which can help improve my subordinate’s strength!”
Jero forced a smile and complinted Kyle, “Big Brother’s subordinate is indeed very awe-inspiring. Little brother is very impressed in his heart!”
Jero’s only hope at that mont was for Hillock to devour Vincent and Kurt as soon as possible so that he can win over Kyle’s favor. Perhaps that would let him off the hook.
However, Vincent, who was on the stage, was destined to create more surprises for Jero!
Vincent pointed at Hillock below the stage and cursed with disdain, “How dare you boast so shalessly? Today, I will make the third prince proud. I will beat you and leave you for half dead. After that, I will completely devour you!”
“Kid, don’t be so arrogant. You will die today!”
Hillock roared and jumped onto the stage. Without waiting for the referee to announce the start of the match, he directly launched an attack on Vincent.
“Divine Dragon Transformation!”
Hillock knew that Vincent’s strength was not weak. Although he showed hatred for Vincent, he did not dare to underestimate him in the slightest. He used the strongest ability that he had copied from the Dragon King.
Vincent looked at Hillock transforming into a five-clawed golden dragon that soared into the air. He could not help but feel even angrier.
The special ability that the Dragon King had developed with his outstanding talent had fallen into the hands of the Phantom Race. It was truly a humiliation, and he had to take revenge for his senior!
Vincent raised his hand and pointed, “Fire dragon!”
A streak of flas spiraled along his arm toward the sky, transforming into a fire dragon in the air, roaring as it charged toward Hillock.
Hillock, who had transford into a golden dragon, originally wanted to fight with the fire dragon. However, the mont he got close to the fire dragon, he panicked and fled to the horizon. The terrifying temperature of the fire dragon’s body had almost caused him to ignite on the spot. At the sa ti, he had lost the confidence to fight head-on with Vincent!
However, Vincent did not give Hillock any chance to escape. The mont Hillock escaped, he stretched out his left hand and grabbed forcefully across the air.
The Hand of God was a trump card that the Protoss had left behind for Vincent. In addition to his high status and the God’s Punishnt skill that needed to be recharged regularly, he also had the ability to grab targets that were in the air.
However, the conditions for grabbing soone in the air were very harsh. The chosen target must be a cultivator below Vincent’s level. However, through many fortuitous encounters, Vincent’s own strength had long surpassed that of cultivators of the sa level, and it was usually a one-hit kill. There was no need for him to use telekinesis at all.
However, Hillock, who had fled before the battle started, had just helped Vincent re-learn this divine skill!
Hillock, who had just stopped in mid-air, thought that he was safe. However, he suddenly felt a terrifying suction force, pulling him down toward the stage.
“No, no, no! I admit defeat and surrender. I’m not your match! Quickly let go!”
Hillock finally realized that he was no match for Vincent. He instantly lost the deanor of an expert from before and repeatedly begged Vincent for rcy in mid-air.
However, Vincent was determined to kill him. No one could change his mind!
Vincent used his right hand to draw a line. Flas once again ignited around the stage, obscuring everyone’s vision. The other Phantoms could not see that Hillock had been burned into ashes by the fire dragon. They thought that Vincent had devoured him.
“Your Highness Kyle, save …”
Before he died, Hillock did not forget to shout for help to his master. However, Kyle, who was watching the battle from the high platform, did not react in the slightest. His eyes were even filled with disdain.
If Hillock had not begged Vincent for rcy earlier, perhaps Kyle would have chosen to help his subordinate escape from Vincent’s hands. However, Hillock had disregarded his image and begged Vincent for rcy. This aroused Kyle’s disgust toward him, and he could not wait for him to die as soon as possible so that he would not embarrass him any longer!
As the fireball above the stage entered Vincent’s mouth once again, the Phantoms below the stage were all dumbfounded and looked at Vincent. The arena was dead silent.
Vincent had previously devoured a level 50 Phantom earlier too. This kind of strength was not an existence that ordinary characters could challenge.
It was only because Jero was too servile in front of Kyle that everyone mistakenly thought that he was no match for Kyle. They assud that Jero’s subordinates could not possibly be a match for Kyle’s subordinates.
Hillock, who had stopped everyone from entering the arena, just happened to use his life to prove the truth to everyone. A misunderstanding had led to the end of one’s life. Fortunately, Hillock was the first to act as that idiot!
Vincent crossed his arms in front of his chest and looked around the stage. He shouted in a deep voice, “Who else wants to co up and face ?”
There was still a deathly silence below the stage. Most of the contestants had not even reached level 50, so how would they dare to go up and challenge such a terrifying opponent?
On the viewing platform, when Kyle saw this scene, his expression finally darkened. He said coldly to Jero, “Third brother, I didn’t expect the subordinate you recruited to be so amazing. It seems that your taste in picking subordinates is far better than mine. No wonder father has always praised you for being the most like him. It seems that he has long regarded you as his successor!”
When Jero heard Kyle’s malicious words, he was so scared that he almost lost control of himself on the spot. He quickly shouted to the arena, “Justin! If you’re really loyal to , then pay attention to the limits of your attacks. Sotis, dying for is also a way for you to express your loyalty!”
When Kyle heard this, the gloominess on his face finally eased by a lot, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up into a playful smile.
When Jero saw this, he felt slightly relieved. He quickly said, “Big brother, don’t worry. The two Phantoms I’ve found are just gifts to you and your subordinates as nourishnt to advance. They don’t have the slightest bit of improper thoughts! In terms of inheriting the throne, no one in the world is more suitable than big brother. I hope big brother doesn’t misunderstand !”
Kyle raised his chin slightly and said softly, “Don’t worry, third brother. Didn’t I give you a chance to explain the misunderstanding? Next, it’ll depend on the performance of these two subordinates of yours!”
In the arena, Vincent, who had his back to Jero, sneered disdainfully. He naturally knew that Jero was hinting at him to die. He wanted Vincent to voluntarily sacrifice his own life to beco soone else’s nourishnt so that Kyle would show rcy toward him.
However, in Vincent’s eyes, Jero was just a chess piece to help him cause chaos in the Phantom Race. Why would he care about the order of a chess piece?
Kyle, who was on the viewing platform, waved his hand downward, hinting at a few figures in the crowd.
Suddenly, a rough voice said, “There’s no need to be so arrogant after killing that old trash, Hillock. I’ll fight you!”
A tall and sturdy figure rushed onto the stage and stood in front of Vincent.
What surprised Vincent was that the Phantom in front of him did not have a human face. Instead, it was a strong Phantom who had the head of a tiger and the body of a human. It was a beast from the Beast Race.
“Look, isn’t he the genius who rose to fa a few years ago, Prague?”
“It is said that he is already a level 55 creature. I didn’t expect that he would beco Prince Kyle’s subordinate!”
The Phantoms below the stage started to recognize the identity of the Phantom who had copied the appearance of the Beast Race. It instantly attracted the anticipation and cheers of the Phantoms.
Since a level 50 creature was no match for Vincent, then Prague, a level 55 creature, should be able to successfully devour Vincent!
Vincent looked coldly at Prague and revealed a cold smile. He suddenly disappeared from where he was standing.
This ti, it was Vincent’s turn to attack without waiting for the referee’s order!
Prague had no confidence to beat Vincent. He only dared to go up against Vincent after receiving a hint from His Highness Kyle. He was ready to collect this rare nourishnt.
However, he did not expect His Highness Kyle to give the wrong order. Vincent did not surrender.
In his panic, Prague did not take the lead to look for Vincent. Instead, he raised his head to look at Kyle on the high platform, eager to seek help.
However, before Prague could even speak, he suddenly felt heat on the back of his neck. It turned out that Vincent had quietly appeared behind him and grabbed his neck.
“With your little battle experience, why would you co up and embarrass yourself? You’re really courting death!” shouted Vincent coldly.
Countless flas shot out from between his fingers, turning into countless fire snakes, completely engulfing Prague.
Vincent then did the sa trick again, igniting flas around the ring. He then sucked all the flas into his stomach, pretending to engulf Prague.
After the flas subsided, Vincent happened to see Jero on the ring with a pale face. He could not help but say loudly, “Your Highness, please rest assured. Today, on this stage, I will fight to the death for Your Highness. I will not embarrass you!”
Jero could no longer care about his image at that mont. He cursed at Vincent in a crazed manner, “What the f*ck? Hurry up and die!”
However, the mont Jero opened his mouth, Vincent turned around and looked below the stage as if he did not hear Jero’s roar.
Vincent continued to ask the Phantoms below the stage in a deep voice, “Anyone else who is not convinced, feel free to step forward and give it a try!”
After hearing Vincent’s arrogant and fearless voice, the Phantoms below the stage all had ugly expressions on their faces. They continued to remain silent. No one dared to continue challenging Vincent.
When Kyle saw the scene from the viewing platform, he said to Jero with a murderous aura, “I didn’t expect your subordinate to be so loyal. I still don’t understand. Did he really not understand what you ant, or did you guys maintain a special tacit understanding?”
Jero naturally realized that Kyle had the intention to kill him, but he could not do anything at that mont because Vincent was no longer under his control.
Jero knew that he could not escape death so he decided to calm down. His expression beca much calr and he turned to look at Vincent. He said indifferently, “Not only you, brother, but even I seem to have just t this guy! His origin, ability, and his goal, co to think of it, are really a little hard to figure out!”
Kyle could not be bothered with Jero’s feelings at that mont. He stood up with an angry face and shouted to the crowd below, “From now on, let’s change the rules of the competition! Everyone, go up on stage! Whoever can devour this guy will get this half-finished universe-level equipnt!”
A small, exquisite box appeared in Kyle’s hand. He raised it high in the air and showed it to everyone below.
All the Phantoms’ passion was ignited. If hundreds of Phantoms attacked Vincent together, they naturally had a high chance of victory, and one of them would beco the lucky one to swallow Vincent!
Plus, they would also receive a piece of half-finished universe-level equipnt as a reward. This made all the Phantoms go crazy.
“Then what are you thinking about? Let’s attack together!”
“Let’s devour Justin and beco the champion of the competition!”
Hundreds of Phantoms shouted their slogans and rushed into the arena where Vincent was.
Kurt, who had yet to et his opponent, did not bother to hide his identity and rushed in front of Vincent. He was preparing to block the wave of enemies for Vincent.
However, Vincent, who was in the middle of the disaster, did not panic at all. He only pressed on Kurt’s shoulder with one hand and snapped his fingers with the other.
Following that, a fla lit up on Vincent’s back. He spread out his flaming wings from within the fla. He raised a huge curtain of fire and enveloped all the Phantoms around the ring.
As the divine fla slowly sprinkled down, the area covered by the fla was completely isolated from the outside world. Not a single sound could be heard.
“Leave these small fries to . Go and help with a big matter!” said Vincent.
Vincent pulled Kurt behind him and casually took out a tal disc. He then stuffed it into Kurt’s hand.
Kurt asked in a daze, “What is this?”
“This is the disk that opens the teleportation array. Wait and act according to the situation. Find a hidden place and build a teleportation door! The Phantoms are about to fall into chaos. I believe that Gajero is about to break through the Black Hole’s restrictions. It’s ti for us to prepare to leave!”
“Alright, I’ll do it now!” said Kurt.
He nodded and turned around to rush toward the fire curtain that Vincent had set up. Under the cover of the monstrous flas, he left the arena.
Vincent then turned his gaze toward the other Phantoms. He flipped his hand and took out the Cup of Fate. He sneered and said, “Do you think you’re so great just because you have more n? I’d like to see how many of you can survive. Die!”
The Cup of Fate exploded with a black and purple light. It spread out like water waves, killing all the Phantoms below level 50 on the spot..
