The opponents are in a team like ours, but their levels and equipment are far inferior. With me, the King of Luck, around, everyone's equipment is not a problem. Now that my luck is seven points, I clearly feel that how I wield the equipment is nearly two times better than Xiaomao and the rest. Without any suspense, when the opponent mage saw the two Level-44 warriors charging towards him, he was so frightened that he almost surrendered on the spot. Their warriors wanted to insta-kill me, but I smiled. A Ring of Fire Resistance sent them far away, and the Thunderbolt sent them back to their hometown with a few hits. There was no challenge. The rest of the competition was also like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. It was only a little troublesome when we encountered the God of War Alliance. These abnormal warriors were all Level-48 warriors. How terrifying. I didn't know how they trained. As soon as they came up, three warriors pounced at me, and two charged at Snow. I got Double Fools to help Snow. Xiaomao fought freely. I dealt with these few. This was the first time I used Level-55 magic—Thunder God's Descent (a small range, super strong wind-attribute magic). I opened my magic shield (only a Level-50 can learn this, but I'm a Level-3 one). I blocked 3 attacks. Horrible, my shield almost burst. That kind of impact could only be created by warriors. I released a Ring of Fire Resistance, bounced them away. Thunder God's Descent, a small patch of dark cloud suddenly gathered in the sky. A magic array appeared on the ground. Boom— thunder suddenly appeared, and a few guys who had been poisoned had most of their blood knocked out. Xiaomao took the opportunity to make a fortune by sending them to their death. The battle over there had also stabilized. With Snow's help, Double Fools made up for the inadequate levels. Under the attack of Snow's Fire God Talisman, and seeing that I was walking over, 2 guys admitted defeat right away.
This battle also made our team famous: the beautiful goddess-like Snow, the mysterious and terrifying ancient mage Soul Eater, the tall and mighty iron-blood Duo, and the strange elf Thief Xiaomao. Of course, no one could ignore our most adorable cheerleader, Little Snow. We were completely an idol team. In the future, every time we appeared, we would cause a wave of cheers. We were the first team to qualify for the finals. We could rest for a day and prepare for the finals with all our might.
Today was a break, and everyone enjoyed the rare peace before the finals. Snow and I took a walk in the bustling Yan Huang City. Babe (everyone's nickname for Little Snow) insisted on following us. Sigh, this little lightbulb, Babe was very clingy to me, making Snow jealous. The two of them, one was on my left, and the other on my right. The three of us were already very eye-catching on the streets. Coupled with our performance in the competition, we were almost like monkeys in the zoo. We quickly found a teahouse to drink tea. There was nothing to do, so we could only chat and talk about what we had seen at the competition. So-and-so's equipment was really abnormal, so-and-so was really handsome, so-and-so… It would take only three women to make a show. Fortunately, there were only two now. I casually told them about the strange ring. With the strong pleading from the two curious babes, I gritted my teeth to have it appraised.
The group found the chief appraiser. When the old man saw that it was me, he smiled happily. However, while we were familiar with each other, the amount was not small. He put in a splendid appraisal spell. The ancient ring emitted a halo. The old man began to get excited. A divine artifact, a divine artifact. Light spread into it. The ghost head on it disappeared and the image of a mage with a sword appeared in its place. "What is this?" I asked the old man who was getting befuddled.
"Ignorant lucky boy. Some call it a gift from the God of Magic, or God of War's Compromise. It transfers damage to magic when a mage is attacked. Surely you understand what it represents?"
Heavens, I've hit the jackpot! Generally speaking, although powerful mages had shields to protect them, there was no guarantee that they wouldn't be instantly killed by a powerful warrior's chain of skills, especially in a group battle. If there was not much difference in levels, the mage would be at a disadvantage. With it, although the mage could not be said to be invincible in the world, at least it would be difficult for him to die. No wonder it was called the God of War's Compromise. Under normal circumstances, if he wore it, he would suffer a 40% reduction of health points and 60% reduction of magical power. However, after chanting the code word, he would only lose magical power. The magical power of a mage could only be described as abnormally high.
Snow and Babe were overjoyed, as if we were the best in the world. However, it was better to keep a low profile. If I had such good luck, who would know what fortuitous encounters I would have? It cost me another 5 gold coins to celebrate. Sigh, the prices of goods were really high.
Our team's next opponent was the Everlasting Ancient Mage Team. They were all Level-51 mages and were famous for their strong attack power.
The tournament took place in the two arenas at the center of Genghis Khan Square at the same time. The other match was between the Beauty Team and King's Return.
The tournament officially began. The moment the opponent started, I filled the entire arena with Hellfire, and then I opened my shield and released Thunderbolts. Even though we were prepared, poor Xiaomao was still instantly killed on the spot. We originally thought that they would kill me or Snow first. It was a mistake. Double Fools rushed up and prepared two slashes of fire. A Level-1 shield was still not enough. With Big Fool's two slashes, that mage's shield was gone, and Small Fool's two slashes took his life. Although each team had lost one person, the opponent's attack power did not decrease much. Under the torture of the fire and lightning, Double Fools finally could not hold out any longer. They died. The opponent also had a mage killed by me, and now it was two against three. It looked like I had no choice but to use a ruthless move. Snow used a Fire God Talisman to restrain two mages, and I took the opportunity to attack the other. If it was a one-on-one battle with me, there was no hope. Without me losing much health, he was instantly killed by my Thunder God's Descent. Although Snow could not kill the other two, they could not do anything to Snow. If they continued to waste time, it would be disadvantageous for them. However, killing me was a fat hope. In the end, out of despair, they admitted defeat, which was better than dragging on. The semi finals ended with the Gunfire Rose Team standing victorious.
