Chapter 254: Chapter 219: I Want to Fight 15
The mont Su Ze finished speaking, five halos of light lit up above. The exits were about to open again!
Those who had wanted to leave at the end of the first round but couldn’t were now eager to try. Others who had nearly died in the second trial were also determined to leave.
The difficulty of the second trial was still tied to one’s "age," which made all the older Trialists aware of the danger.
If they continued to stay in the Divine Dice, they, the older ones, would surely be the first to die in the next trial, or the one after that.
Therefore, quite a few Trialists wanted to leave this round!
This included Firoz, and it included Zhang Tai.
To leave, they had to first resolve the battle at hand, and it had to be done quickly. The exits would only stay open for three minutes at most. Including the second wave of random slots, they had six minutes at most.
To leave this round, they had to disengage from combat within six minutes.
Zhang Tai and Li Yongguan retreated to Su Ze’s left and right sides. At the very back, Mr. Ya was pacing anxiously, just hoping the extract in his body would finish absorbing quickly.
And in front of the four of them, fifteen people were closing in step by step.
"Mr. Zhang, Yongguan, fall back," Su Ze said. "Let
try out a new move."
"By yourself... can you handle it?" Zhang Tai asked hesitantly.
Li Yongguan didn’t speak, but his eyes held the sa doubt.
"Don’t worry. If I really can’t handle it, adding the two of you wouldn’t make a difference anyway."
’What you said might be true, but it’s still a little hurtful...’ Zhang Tai and Li Yongguan exchanged a look and actually did retreat so distance.
’The stage is all yours. Go on, put on a show!’
’This is all we two useless guys can do. Whether you can get fifteen kills is all up to you.’
Su Ze’s fifteen opponents were also stunned. ’Is this kid looking for a death wish? One versus fifteen?’
But they didn’t have ti to overthink it. They just wanted to quickly finish off the people from Dongli and then fight for the exit slots.
Just then, the five exits above finally opened.
It was as if a battle horn had sounded. All fifteen of them charged at Su Ze.
As for the others not involved in this fight, who might have otherwise quietly watched the show, they now shot upwards as if spring-loaded.
So wanted to take advantage of Su Ze and the others being locked in battle to snatch an exit slot while the competition was less fierce.
Others went to stop their rivals and help their teammates secure an exit.
In an instant, the battle below erupted, and the brawl above began.
The entire Dice Space descended into chaos.
Facing the overwhelming onslaught of enemies, Su Ze imdiately used his "Liquid Life" skill, turning himself into a pool of liquid. He then continuously split, dividing himself into ten equal parts.
These ten pools of liquid instantly transford into ten crude, featureless humanoid figures—ten water-n, each only knee-high.
Su Ze could have sculpted the water-n’s features and bodily details more perfectly, but he couldn’t be bothered. As long as they could fight, aesthetics didn’t matter.
Just like that, the one-versus-fifteen situation instantly beca a ten-versus-fifteen. The numbers on both sides were suddenly much more balanced.
This was the trump card Su Ze had been holding back.
It wasn’t that he hadn’t had a chance to kill Firoz before. But if he had used his ultimate move from the start and killed Firoz, the other enemies would have beco wary of him and wouldn’t have dared to make a move.
Su Ze didn’t like enemies who held back, so he decided to draw them all out and wipe them out in one fell swoop!
He made this bold decision because his Spiritual Power had taken a quantum leap. Before, his Spiritual Power could only sustain four divisions. Now, he could split into ten and control ten Liquid Clones simultaneously without feeling strained.
"What kind of skill is that?"
"Who cares what skill it is? You think the fifteen of us can’t beat one of him?"
"Exactly! Weird, flashy skills are usually all for show and no substance!"
"Go! Focus fire on one of his clones first!"
The fifteen people unleashed all kinds of attacks, a cluster of skills hurtling toward one of Su Ze’s clones.
Faced with the overwhelming barrage of skills, Su Ze’s ten clones didn’t dodge. Instead, they chose to counterattack. All ten clones used Gravity Chain at the sa ti!
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
Ten Gravity Chains shot out, instantly hooking ten people!
Firoz, Tao Qian’s father, Yarlin... he didn’t hook any of them. The ones he pulled over were all people he didn’t recognize.
’It’s one thing for people who have a grudge against
to co after , but what’s the deal with you lot?’
’Just joining in on the fun?’
’Jumping into any old commotion will only get you killed!’
Su Ze showed no rcy to this group of naless people. After pulling the ten of them over, his ten Liquid Clones simultaneously discharged electricity within the space filled with Perception Tentacles!
In an instant, all the electrical energy stored in Su Ze’s body was depleted!
Having ten clones use a skill at the sa ti was powerful in every way, but the cost was imnse.
But the power was truly ferocious!
The ten people who were pulled in were all electrocuted into charred husks.
Watching from behind, Mr. Ya and the others were dumbfounded. Without a second word, Zhang Tai flew upwards.
"Mr. Zhang, where are you going?" Mr. Ya asked, puzzled.
"I’m going to grab an exit," Zhang Tai said with a blank expression.
The reason he had stayed behind was to rember his duty: to protect Su Ze and the others.
But now, after seeing Su Ze’s combat prowess, he just wanted to ask: who was protecting whom?
’My staying here is truly a bit redundant.’
Li Yongguan pursed his lips, constantly telling himself, ’He’s a monster. I don’t need to compare myself to a monster...’
Fifteen Butterfly Stage experts, and in an instant, only five were left.
Firoz, Yarlin, Tao Qian’s father, and two people from the Evolution Divine Teachings.
Luofan Country lost two people, Ancient An Country was left with only Yarlin, the Tao Family lost one, and the Evolution Divine Teachings had three of theirs killed at once.
Poor Mu Country only had two Trialists in total. Because they waded into these muddy waters, Su Ze wiped them out completely.
Just like that, the tables had turned.
The faces of the remaining five turned pale...
’We thought the fifteen of us had surrounded him, but it turns out he had surrounded the fifteen of us!’
How could Firoz not know by now that Su Ze had been deliberately holding back at the beginning? If Su Ze had used this move earlier, how could he have lasted this long?
Yarlin was also filled with regret. ’Why did I have to jump out?!’
The two zealots from the Evolution Divine Teachings looked at Su Ze as if he were a demon, clutching the idols on their chests and praying nonstop, ’Oh god, save !’
Only Tao Qian’s father still glared at Su Ze with rage.
In reality, instantly killing those ten people wasn’t as easy as he made it look.
The one clone among his ten that had been focus-fired was already destroyed. The other nine clones had also sustained varying degrees of damage, and the electricity stored in his body was completely drained, making him unable to use "Thunder God Body" again for a short ti.
In other words, Su Ze was currently maintaining his liquid state. If he reverted to his flesh-and-blood form, it would be roughly equivalent to losing one-tenth of his body.
However, this wasn’t a major issue. With a little ti, his "Regeneration Body" could repair the lost parts.
Although Su Ze’s condition wasn’t great either, the remaining five had long since been scared out of their wits.
As if by unspoken agreent, the four, excluding Tao Qian’s father, flew off in different directions.
Only Tao Qian’s father charged toward Su Ze with a bitter smile, already resigned to death.
Su Ze showed no rcy to his enemies. A few of his clones each fired a "Needle Strike," blasting Tao Qian’s father into pieces on the spot.
Then, Su Ze looked at the other four fleeing figures... Although they flew in different directions, they all shared the sa destination: the exits above.
The four of them knew they had offended Su Ze and could no longer stay in the Divine Dice, so they planned to leave directly through an exit.
However, the fight for the exits was exceptionally fierce. By the ti the four of them flew up, the first wave of five exits had already closed after people passed through. Even Zhang Tai hadn’t made it out in ti.
The four could only wait for the second wave of random exits to open.
The second wave’s number of exits was determined by a random roll of the dice. The number rolled would directly determine the difficulty of competing for an exit.
If there were many exits, the competition would naturally be smaller. But if a "1" was rolled... a lot of people were sure to die.
Su Ze’s nine Liquid Clones rged back into one, and he was about to fly up to deal with those four when several figures suddenly blocked his path.
They were a few geniuses from the Lin Hua Country governnt, though Wan Qizhi was not among them. The leader was a young man with triangular eyes.
The triangle-eyed man smiled. "Brother, that’s about enough. You’ve killed plenty of their people already."
"What did I say before we started? I said if you stayed silent then, you’d better keep your mouth shut for !" Su Ze laughed in anger. "You didn’t say a word when more than ten of them were ganging up on the four of us, but now that I’m about to kill them, you co out to serve ’justice’? Who the hell do you think you are?"
The people behind the triangle-eyed man berated him angrily, "Su Ze, what’s with your attitude! Mr. Chuan is trying to discuss this with you nicely, that’s him giving you face! Do you have any idea who Mr. Chuan is?!"
The triangle-eyed man wasn’t angry. He waved his hand to silence the people behind him and said with a chuckle, "Brother Su Ze, sotis a person needs to have a bigger perspective, to see the whole picture. Do you know why I’m stopping you? Because among those four, two are from the Evolution Divine Teachings!
"You’ve already killed three of the Evolution Divine Teachings’ five Trialists. If you kill the last two as well, they will surely bla my Lin Hua Continent, which will be detrintal to the cooperation between our two sides!"
The triangle-eyed man wore a profound smile, awaiting Su Ze’s reaction, as if to say, ’You didn’t think of that, did you? You’re welco for the reminder!’
"Oh, right, right, right! You’re the one with political awareness! You’re the one with the grand perspective!" Su Ze looked at the triangle-eyed man as if he were an idiot. He couldn’t be bothered to talk to this self-proclaid genius. "So, do you want to die in their place?"
The triangle-eyed man’s face turned cold. "Su Ze, what do you an by that!"
"Are my words that hard to understand? If you keep blocking my way, I’ll just have to kill you first. If Lin Hua Country loses a peerlessly intelligent figure like you, I bet the Evolution Divine Teachings would feel much more balanced, even if all five of their Trialists died, right?
"And another thing. You’re so smart, surely you’ve considered what you would do if I just ignored you, right?"
What would he do? The triangle-eyed man admitted to himself that he really hadn’t considered it. He never expected Su Ze to be so dismissive of the bigger picture and so ungrateful.
