The Newbie Is Too Strong's
208. The Top 16 Participants
All the spectators had distorted faces. It seemed that everyone gasped in shock about the assassin they watched from behind the scenes of the virtual world having summoned a sword.
An assassin wielding a sword is a rarity or even unprecedented in the history of vrmmorpg Indonesia. Although the sword was not very large in size, but it did not change the fact that an assassin had used a sword, especially the character of the sword was a light-type holy sword, very contrary to the image of an assassin who fused into the darkness of the shadow.
‘Skill: stab judgment’
Luca, the assassin also issued his ultimate skill. With a single puncture, the shield of the Forest Friend High School shields instantly broke into pieces. Then in one follow-up slash, the shielder was immediately game over in the arena.
“It seems, I don't need to step in to help you here huh, Luca.”
“I lost quickly apparently from Senior Areka. Instead of that, let's help Egi.” immediately
The assassin along with his fellow shielder also ran quickly to save their fellow archer who was still temporarily facing the opponent.
“Ukh! It's annoying. The hamster's respawn ability is getting out of control along with the decrease of opposing players. In that case, they were the same as one party member. Four black hamsters as the assailant, two male white hamsters as the tank, as well as two female white hamsters as the healer, with the leader a tamer beast that has an unusually crazy buff. What should I do to destroy their combination?”
Egi began to lose stamina and panic by that prolonged fight.
“Quiet, Egi. We have arrived.”
Egi's face immediately brightened again when he found Luca with Areka behind him had arrived to support him.
“Let's execute a one-way straight formation.”
With a warning from Luca, they prepared to attack.
“Now.”
Luca advanced first and quickly got rid of the four black hamsters. Followed by Egi behind him who immediately raised his arrow to two male white hamsters.
The six beasts instantly disappeared from the arena. However, their attacks did not stop there, Luca once again floated his cross-dimensional slashing skill.
As expected, the two female white hamsters who replaced the tamer were attacked. However, the game will soon be game over when the beast tamer is knocked out of the arena, while if the beast is full, they will only immediately respawn.
But that was enough to make the tamer temporarily lose the extraordinary buff ability that came from the female white hamsters.
‘Skill: mistake makes Lutfi angry unforgivable, accept punishment holy whip’
The tamer also received the same torture from Areka as his fellow assassin. But this time, it didn't just get there.
“Hiyaaat!” Luca suddenly floated in the air with his griffon shoes then slashed at the tamer.
Who would have guessed, that was no ordinary slash. Luca no longer used his holy Astaroth sword, but his basilisk's poisonous fang dagger with poison strengthened by the alchemist Chika.
The rapid decline in HP was immediately experienced by the tamer. Without having time for the beasts to respawn into the arena, the tamer has game over first.
Victory for Luca and his team from Pelita Harapan High School. And it was not just a win, but they have managed to beat the 3rd champion of the tournament last year.
Seeing that, all the spectators felt disbelief. Many of the spectators were frustrated. Unfortunately, it is not their sincere spirit in supporting the former champion 3, Friends of Forest High School Team. They felt frustrated was none other than because the money they had bet under the name of the Forest Friend High School Team had to drift in vain.
But rather than that, more spectators cheered the sudden appearance of a new dark horse in the arena that managed to get rid of the 3rd champion.
@@@
It was an easy win. As expected of the former 3 tournament champions last year. If only they used their maximum ability, instead of underestimating us and instead lowering their two newbies, who knows what the outcome of the game will be. Well, although I certainly still believe that our team will still come out as the winner even though it will be a little more difficult.
More than that, the match in our room was over and now we are waiting for the members of our scout group to come together to be able to watch Chika, Diana, together, and Kak Nina in their individual tournament that will soon be held.
It did not take long for the first team to arrive, the team formed between Lia and Asti, following behind them in a row Kak Andra-Zevan team and Kak Shea-Evan team.
“How about another match, Lia?”
I tried asking Lia. However, it was Brother Andra who finally answered my question.
“Papua's first representative team, the champion 1st year ago, Phoenix High School Team, really is not an arbitrary team. They really looked like the young incarnation of Team Shadow Park. Apparently they have a talented alchemist other than Krimson at that High School.”
Additional information soon came from Kak Shea, “So did the champion 2 years ago, the first representative of Sulawesi Island, Rooster Senior High School Team. Although their arrangement is standard, but each of them has strength that is beyond the limit.”
“Sometimes the standard arrangement is actually dangerous. They do not need to win through tricks because they have been very confident in their abilities.”
“Yes, there you go, Asti. Not just great, but very super duper great. If you are alone, how are your reconnaissance results against Eden Foundation High School and Puncak Bakti High School?”
“Yes, they both got away. Not only that, their abilities far improved greatly, could no longer be compared to when they entered the competition early in the academic year at that time.”
“Oh yes, by the way, there are only 4 schools apparently yes from the Central Area that seems to qualify for the second preliminary round.”
I was immediately shocked by the sudden information provided by Evan. Because to my knowledge, there are two more schools in the Central Area besides us and the two schools mentioned above that can be categorized as talented schools, namely Mulya Kasih High School and Angkasa Jaya High School.
However, if you look at the statistical development of each of their members, it must be Mulya Kita High School that passes all the members of the main team are on the guard of the Black Joker professional team.
Curiously, I asked, “What team that escaped was Mulya Kasih High School, Evan?”
The moment I was shocked when Evan shook his head signaled a negative answer.
“Viandra and his colleagues are indeed very great, but those who are as great as that are not able to dwell in front of the fourth representative of the island of Papua.”
Not the first or second representative, but the fourth representative who has beaten a great team like them? The team that all its members are the result of the construction of the eighth-ranked professional team in Indonesia? If their fourth representative is as good as that, what do you know with the third, second, especially the first representative of Papua Island, Phoenix High School, the school where Kak Krimson took shelter.
“Then, SMA Angkasa Jaya yes who escaped?”
“No, not them either. They were easily defeated by representatives of both Sulawesi Island.”
“Lantas who?”
“SMA Mulia Karsa. I don't know the details either. Hey, Zevan. You and Brother Andra were the ones watching it live? How exactly is the state of the match there.”
To his twin sister's question, Zevan just shook his head and answered slowly.
“They qualified only because their opposing team came from a weak Southeast Area. You can see for yourself that all representatives of the Southeast Area have been eliminated from the first round of their problems are all weak. You could say, the passing of High School Mulia Karsa was purely due to luck.”
Amidst the heated discussion, it was Lia who suddenly stopped the tense situation.
“Already, already. There's no point in talking about that right now. Let's talk about that when we get home. Now, let's focus on supporting our team-mates who will soon be competing in individual matches soon.”
Lia's right. Free to talk about Phoenix High School Team, Rooster, Eden Foundation, Bakti Peak, and all the strong opponents for now. We have to concentrate first on the opponent who is in sight. It was also waiting later about the game Chika will soon start.
“Yo, Luca. Long time no see.”
“Ah, Brother Krimson?”
A nail-haired senior suddenly walked up to me, but he was not a senior from my school, but rather from the school of one of the potential opponents, the 1st-champion High School team in the previous year, Phoenix High School.
“Sister is here to watch Big Brother's friend also yes to compete?”
“Yes, that's it. He was my junior at High School who was the same age as you and Chika as well as a direct student of the master of the field of Nostalgia, the headmaster of Nostalgia, Crevon de Lowrence. Unfortunately he only enjoys gaming as a hobby and has absolutely no intention of joining Shadow Park.”
“Is that?”
“This will definitely be an exciting match between Professor Bruntall's direct disciple and Professor Crevon's direct disciple. Who among them is stronger?”
“According to Brother Krimson who?”
“Yeah, it depends on the theme as well anyway. If it was about potions, then it would definitely be Chika who would win, but if it was about poison, then it was my junior who would win.”
Well, Kak Krimson's opinion is not unfounded. Chika is actually an all rounder alchemist, only her teacher, Professor Bruntall, specifies on medicine. It was only natural that his knowledge of poison was much less, even though it had been very supportive of the team.
Just look, we previously managed to defeat the opponent tamer, thanks to one of them thanks to the poison made by Chika.
When the race announcement is made,
“Monster Loudly Bear is an aggressive monster, but the skin on the back of its legs is very useful for making elastic bags. However, when the monster is in a state of emotion in his death, absolutely his skin will contract even after his death so that the skin of his hind legs is no longer usable.”
“The only way to obtain that part with the best quality is to kill monsters in the peaceful state as possible, one of which is with poison. But if one were to choose the poison, the monster would only die in a state of pain and the result would be the same. The longer the process of killing monsters, the better the product.”
“The theme this time is how to make a poison that is able to make instant kill as fast as possible on the Loudly Bear monster, even without the monster being able to realize that he is dead.”
As if betraying my expectations, the theme this time was apparently about poison.
