Chapter 692: SCAM!!
Chapter 692: SCAM!!
"Candidate Yoring took 54 seconds to defeat the monster!" shouted Sinish, the middle-aged man overseeing the battle game.
After defeating the monster, Yoring came out from the large portal through a portal that appeared in front of him inside the trial domain.
"Not bad! He managed to defeat it under one minute; that's above-average performance according to all statistics from previous battle games."
"Too bad that the betting limit is only 20,000 Etons. Welp, I still won some despite his small scaling odds on winning, so it's good."
The audience started walking while Sinish spoke the second name.
…
One by one, candidates went and defeated the monster.
After an hour, It was finally nearing the end as Huarin's name popped up before Athan's and Lily's.
Seeing her walking towards the portal door, the audience remembered that she was one of the three candidates who arrived here very late.
Some started booing, but Huarin rapidly entered the portal door and appeared one kilometer away from the monster that respawned again despite being killed so many times.
By now, it was obvious that the monster was a puppet of some sort but very lifelike. It seems that they had a large stock of these lifelike puppets that also had a soul.
Huarin didn't waste any time as she flew towards the monster with light blue and emerald wings materializing behind her back; this was one of the skills from her genome power known as Ruination Twilight of Rinoxis.
Rinoxis Wings.
The monster conjured four powerful star-shaped disks to attack Huarin in his four hands after seeing how Huarin came close to him.
However, Huarin easily dodged the attack before muttering as she used one of the abilities she shaped from her chaotic powers, "Hoxus Spears of Stillness."
Her soul energy and stamina depleted as five shining spears of silver, blue, and red patterns materialized in front of Huarin before they shot towards the monster's two heads.
After conjuring the spears and releasing them, Huarin flew high in the sky before using her most powerful ability that she shaped from her mythical-grade Cynrailic Orchos Genome's power during her enlightenment.
Prison of Orcudames.
A hellish cage burning with dark purple, pale yellow, and crimson red materialized and trapped the monster.
After trapping the giant monster, the three colored flames burned with tens of times the intensity from their initial state and completely obliterated the monster.
Outside…
Everyone became silent.
"What the heck? How did she finish off that monster so fast? How many seconds was that? Five? Six? Seven?"
"Why that giant didn't use his defense?"
"Those fast spears! They probably had the effect of confusing the giant and preventing it from using its power. I noticed that it couldn't move after that despite seeing that powerful prison on top of him."
"But…what's going on? How come she came late despite being this powerful?"
"Hehe, actually, I bet on her because, with my superficial inspection, I found that she had a more potent aura around her than other candidates, it's the same with the other girl, but I don't know about the guy."
"Fuck! This is a scam!"
"Hahaha, this is a record! No candidates of the past had killed that monster this fast before."
"Damn! I lost my money T-T."
"Hehe, her winning odds are going to become abysmal in the next round. Even if we bet on her, we won't win much, sigh…"
At this time, Sinish smiled faintly and shouted, "Candidate Huarin defeated the monster in 5 seconds. She currently holds the no.1 rank!"
Huarin arrived from the portal door and smiled wryly after hearing the words of Sinish, 'No.1? Not for long.'
The ten kings floating in the edges of the stadium high in the sky didn't say anything. They already knew those last three candidates were abnormal after they did their superficial inspection on them, finding two of their auras much more potent while finding nothing about the third person.
"Cough, I am afraid one of the King Polu's candidates will fail," said the King of Zonik Empire with a smile.
King of Polu Empire snorted but didn't say anything. Even though he taunted King Zonik previously, he hadn't seen those last three candidates at that time.
"Humph, the real question is, why did those arrive late despite possessing such powers? Those two girls definitely built Mythical grade Cynrailic Orchos Genome, making them top tier powerhouses in Raisor-stage."
"That guy with the gray and black outfit is strange. I can't check his aura and how potent power he possesses. Cough… So…is it only me or you all are also unable to check him?"
"I can't as well."
"Same here."
Everyone looked at the King of Limbark Empire, who maintained his indifferent expression.
"Hey! Say something. He is your Empire's candidate."
King Limbark's lips twitched a bit before he spoke, "No comment."
"Boring old man!"
"Anyway, let's see the performance of that other girl now. She just entered the Trial Domain."
…
Lily entered the Trial Domain after Sinish called her out.
After arriving inside the domain, Lily used her abilities and skills right off the bat as two strange silver/mercury doors appeared. One in front of Lily while the other behind the giant monster's head.
The monster roared as it sensed the door behind it, but three golden beams struck his head from the portal as Lily used her most powerful control-type skill, which was from her genome power that is called Ambience of Divine Aurelion.
The monster was stunned and couldn't do anything.
After that, Lily stepped into the door and appeared behind the giant monster before using her most offensive skill from the Mythical grade Cynrailic Orchos Genome.
Crescent Moon Death Slash.
Outside…Everyone saw a sparkling crescent silver slash flashing before it cut off all three heads of the giant monster, killing it instantly.
*UPROAR!*
Everyone in the audience went nuts and started shouting.
"DAMNNNN! WHAT A SCAM. This is a scam!"
"Yeah! Playing pig to eat tiger! Our money is eaten by the betting house now!
