Chapter 106

~7 min read 1,384 words

The surrounding space was a vast expanse of white; nothing at all could be seen.

Before his eyes was only a virtual panel.

【Nickname: Undetermined】

【ID: 9881314 (Can be hidden)】

【Title: None】

【Rank: Black Iron Zero Star (0/100)】

【Win Rate: None】

【Points: 0】

"Ding, please confirm your nickname as soon as possible!"

Luo Chenyu thought for a moment, then wrote down two bold characters!

Reckless Bear!

"Ding, this nickname is not taken, confirmed!"

As the mysterious prompt tone faded, Luo Chenyu discovered that three new functions had appeared on the virtual panel before him.

【Shop】, 【Arena】, 【Friends】!

"Heh, it finally feels like I'm playing a game."

Luo Chenyu smiled, opened the 【Arena】 function, and immediately joined the matchmaking queue!

According to the arena rules, matchmaking is generally done within the same rank, with a small probability of being matched against an opponent one rank higher.

In the 【Eternal Arena】, there is no such thing as matchmaking based on strength.

Therefore, Luo Chenyu had no idea what his opponent's actual strength was.

The matchmaking process was very slow!

Luo Chenyu didn't just sit idle; he checked the items inside the 【Eternal Arena Shop】 one by one.

Suddenly.

Three mysterious notification tones rang in his ears.

"Broadcast: Contestant 【Night Emperor】 has killed contestant 【Void Shadow】 in an Epic-rank match, earning an additional 10,000 points!"

"Broadcast: Contestant 【Night Emperor】 has killed contestant 【Void Shadow】 in an Epic-rank match, earning an additional 10,000 points!"

"Broadcast: ..."

Luo Chenyu sighed slightly; the matchmaking mechanism was actually almost as dangerous as a deathmatch!

You can surrender in matchmaking.

You cannot in a deathmatch.

The danger level of the 【Eternal Arena】 is indeed very high!

Sometimes, you are killed before you even have time to surrender!

………………

A few minutes later.

Finally... the match was successful.

His vision shifted.

As far as his eyes could see, there was an endless plaza, the bluestone floor bearing the marks of time.

A hundred meters away stood a bizarre creature.

Seeing this, Luo Chenyu immediately frowned.

The opponent... was not human!

It had a humanoid shape but possessed a head similar to a centipede; what left a deep impression on him were the eight pairs of emerald eyes and its pincer-like mandibles.

At the same time.

The opponent's basic information appeared before his eyes.

【Nickname: Thousand-Foot Face】

【ID: Hidden】

【Title: None】

【Rank: Black Iron Five Star】

【Win Rate: 81%】

……

"An 81% win rate, not bad strength!"

If he guessed correctly, the trials for every contestant who could participate in the 【Eternal Arena】 should be similar, and their strength would definitely exceed that of a Seventh-rank ferocious beast.

While Luo Chenyu was muttering to himself.

A strange scale of tones entered his ears.

It was indeed the opponent, Thousand-Foot Face, speaking.

Even though he couldn't hear the words, he understood its meaning in his mind.

"Looks like my luck is quite good; the first match today and I run into a newbie, a Fifth-rank human, and a defensive warrior at that... Hahaha..."

Luo Chenyu was slightly stunned; from the tone of Thousand-Foot Face, he could feel its contempt for humans.

Eye of Insight!

However... what left Luo Chenyu speechless was that he still couldn't see any information.

So the question arose.

How did Thousand-Foot Face discover his information?

Logically speaking, his information should have been hidden by the 【Eternal Token】.

"Not simple at all!"

Luo Chenyu sighed inwardly, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly as he said, "I hope you can still laugh later, little bug!"

Strength unknown.

But when facing a contestant of the same rank, one cannot fall behind in momentum.

"Humans should all die. You are unlucky to have met me; I will take your Eternal Mark!"

"You have 10 seconds left; any last words?"

Thousand-Foot Face laughed wantonly, its eight pairs of green eyes rotating, finally focusing on Luo Chenyu's body.

"Boring!"

Luo Chenyu couldn't be bothered with nonsense; more talk was useless. Whoever has the bigger fist is the boss!

He gathered his focus.

He added his skills one by one; for his first "PK," the priority was stability.

The countdown ended.

Luo Chenyu instantly turned into a bolt of purple lightning, as if crossing time and space, appearing in front of Thousand-Foot Face in an instant.

Boom!!

A violent collision sound rang out.

Luo Chenyu was slightly stunned; was his 【Savage Charge】 actually countered?

Not only did it deal no damage, but it also caused his own shield to drop by over 700,000 points.

What kind of bizarre ability was that?

Meanwhile.

Thousand-Foot Face was also filled with horror; was its life-saving ability forced out just like that?

What the hell!!

That was a divine artifact's life-saving ability, and furthermore...

The rebound effect of the divine artifact didn't cause any damage, only reflecting some negligible amount!

This newbie defensive warrior had such strong offensive capabilities.

Could it be that he also had a divine artifact?

And an offensive-type divine artifact at that?

Everything was unknown, but it knew that if it didn't use its trump card, it would likely lose this time.

In an instant.

Its eight pairs of emerald eyes condensed eight beams of light, hitting the human in front of it directly.

"Hmph, under my innate talent ability, you are just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered!"

However... the next moment, Thousand-Foot Face collapsed.

Its innate talent ability still didn't cause any damage; even the true damage and destruction damage it carried didn't take effect.

The damage was still absorbed by that bizarre shield.

"You..."

Before Thousand-Foot Face could finish, a massive black spiked club had already struck its head.

Boom!!

The heavy, powerful blow knocked Thousand-Foot Face to the ground, and more than half of its health vanished.

"I... surr..."

Before it could finish, the power of lightning suddenly struck, paralyzing it so badly it couldn't even say the word "surrender."

What greeted it was the violent spiked club.

Locked health?

Facing the violent continuous output and the continuous paralysis effect, it was of no use at all.

Thousand-Foot Face felt dead inside.

Before dying.

It had only one question in its heart.

You call this a defensive warrior?

………………

"Ding, you have defeated the Black Iron Five-Star contestant 【Thousand-Foot Face】 in a match, gaining 5 Eternal Arena points and +1 win!"

"Ding, you have killed the target in the match, gaining 10 Eternal Arena points, +1 Eternal Mark, and randomly obtained two items from the 【Thousand-Foot Face】 space backpack!"

Luo Chenyu wiped away some non-existent sweat.

Finally, he smiled.

Don't let the ease of killing Thousand-Foot Face fool you.

In reality.

It was indeed easy; aside from being slightly stunned after his 【Savage Charge】 was broken and getting hit by one skill, he hadn't faced any threat at all.

But just that one skill.

Had broken his 【Eternal·Lightning Barrier】 shield.

"These guys have quite mysterious methods."

After returning to the mysterious space.

Luo Chenyu didn't immediately go to match again.

Instead, he opened his backpack to check the items dropped by Thousand-Foot Face.

There were only two.

【Magic Energy Bomb】

Quality: SSS-rank

Type: Engineering Creation

Unique Effect: Deals massive mixed damage to all targets within a 10-meter range, guaranteed to add 1 million absolute damage that cannot be mitigated.

Usage count: 1/1

Note: This item cannot be used in the Eternal Arena.

……

【Thousand-Foot Ghost Centipede Summoning Scroll】

Quality: SSS-rank

Type: Summoning Item

Unique Effect: Summons a Level 150 Ninth-rank Void Zerg 【Thousand-Foot Ghost Centipede】, lasting for 30 minutes.

Usage count: 1/1

Note: This item cannot be used in the Eternal Arena.

………………

Looking at the two items before him, Luo Chenyu couldn't help but be overjoyed.

SSS-rank one-time items.

They would definitely provide some unexpected surprises at critical moments.

At this time.

Luo Chenyu also discovered another restriction of the 【Eternal Arena】: except for treasures, nothing else in the backpack could be used.

For others, this might not be good.

But for him, this was fantastic news.

If Thousand-Foot Face could have used these things, he would have lost without a doubt.

Just one 【Magic Energy Bomb】 could have killed him instantly.

Absolute damage!

Unless one possesses absolute damage mitigation, damage is damage.

Even a locked-health ability could be broken directly.

After resting for a moment.

Luo Chenyu continued to match!
