Chapter 321 Brain Demon Derivative Body, Blood of the Gale Feather Envoy!
Chapter 321 Brain Demon Derivative Body, Blood of the Gale Feather Envoy!
A brain demon suddenly sprang out of the shadows, attempting to deliver a fatal blow with a death kiss.
Fortunately, Ark's keen intuition allowed him to activate his skeletal shield in time, thus avoiding damage.
But the sudden attack still left his face covered in sticky fluid, and the sticky feeling made him extremely uncomfortable.
The feeling of his face being covered in slime made Ark even more disgusted with these special and mutated monsters.
Even under the protection of the Undead Sky, he still could not escape the detection of these demons.
Outside the arena, the students watching the game were already laughing so hard they were doubled over.
Fangzhou, who was usually calm and composed, was now covered in slime.
This was the first time they had ever seen Fang Zhou in such a disheveled state; the scene was both comical and dramatic.
Just then, Liu Diewu's voice rang out amidst the noise, saying, "I finally understand Fang Zhou's plan."
Her words immediately drew everyone's attention, and everyone stopped laughing and turned to look at her.
"What?" Lu Renjia looked puzzled, clearly still not fully understanding Fang Zhou's intentions.
Liu Diewu explained, "Didn't you notice? The Ark has a very methodical approach to clearing out monsters."
Although I don't understand why he cleared out a few monsters here and a few more there.
But look, he's actually moving the stone pillar at the gate; it looks like he's digging a hole.
Lu Renjia and the others followed Liu Diewu's gaze to the light screen and, sure enough, found that Fangzhou was busy.
He seemed to be adjusting the position of something, his movements appearing both practiced and purposeful.
"Are you saying that the Ark boss has already turned this place into a battlefield?"
"That can't be right, look at these."
As Lu Yiyi spoke, she lightly tapped the light screen with her finger, and the data displayed on it was clearly visible.
More than fifty students are now gathering in this direction.
The thirty people closest to the ark have been searching the area for any trace of it.
The students watching the competition gasped in shock when they saw these statistics.
This number shocked them and made them realize the immense value of portable concentration meditation arrays in the eyes of the participants.
Liu Diewu mentioned that Fangzhou wanted to "dig a hole," but the question is, how should this "hole" be dug?
There are already fifty people here, and with more arriving later, the number is simply unimaginable.
"Yes, we acknowledge that Ark is indeed very strong, but the other participants are not to be underestimated either."
Even if he couldn't defeat him one-on-one, with so many people, they could overwhelm him by sheer numbers.
Some commented that their words were filled with concern about the impending predicament of the Ark.
"Ark has gone a bit too far this time," another student exclaimed, clearly finding Ark's actions unbelievable.
"It feels like they're courting death, do they really think they're gods?" someone echoed, their tone laced with mockery.
"What are you babbling about? Why weren't you saying anything when you were displaying your divine power?"
Faced with dissenting voices, supporters were equally assertive.
The spectator stands were in complete chaos, with all sorts of voices mingling together.
"I know this sounds unbelievable, but look what he's doing right now."
Liu Diewu pointed to the ark in the picture.
Upon closer inspection, everyone saw that Fangzhou was busy preparing something.
"Is this a trap?" Lu Yiyi hesitated for a moment and asked uncertainly.
"It's clearly a trap."
However, since these traps don't have any skill effects, how effective are they?
Lu Renjia frowned, clearly suspicious of these seemingly ordinary yet inexplicable arrangements.
"That's a question for Fang Zhou; who can guess what he's thinking?"
Liu Diewu shook her head helplessly, her tone filled with a mixture of admiration and confusion.
"Look, he doesn't clean up monsters at fixed locations. If he just wanted to rack up points, he could just do it directly. Why bother running around like this?"
He then made some simple traps, but these traps didn't seem to have any special purpose.
"What else could this be but digging a hole?"
"But this pit" is a bit too big, isn't it?
If it were big, it would have buried me.
Lu Yiyi glanced at the time and reminded him, "We've been preparing for half an hour already, and Fangzhou's points have already been caught up by others."
"This further illustrates that he wants to go big."
I smelled the stench of bloodshed.
Although I still can't believe he could handle so many people.
Liu Diewu said, her tone revealing a mixture of nervousness and anticipation.
"Let's take a look."
Lu Renjia harbored a faint sense of anticipation.
Not only him, but all the spectators were holding their breath, eager to see if Ark could turn the tide and how it would deal with this major crisis.
Within the manor, Ark carefully navigated every corner.
He proceeded with extreme caution, even though these brain demon derivatives posed little threat to him, he still dared not be careless.
He has already cleared out a lot of monsters and set some seemingly simple traps.
These traps don't have flashy skill effects, but they all have some special purpose.
Fangzhou checked the time; most of the day had already passed since the recruit competition.
"Everyone in the family is working so hard, I can't fall behind."
Fang Zhou shook the sealed bone bell in his hand, and with a crisp sound, the pearl bird Gugu appeared in mid-air, then flapped its wings and soared into the sky.
The cooing bird kept calling and circling high in the sky.
Its presence was quickly spotted by the students around the manor.
The regional channel immediately erupted in discussion.
Any participant who knows anything about Ark knows that this pearl bird, Gugu, is the Ark's "eye in the sky".
The pearl bird is here at the manor, so Fang must be nearby too.
The outer wall of the manor is actually a sturdy city wall.
For the trainees, it was like an insurmountable barrier.
The walls were covered with mutated monsters that served as guards.
Besides the main gate, the other three directions are bordered by a moat that reeks of foul odor.
The river water shimmered eerily under the dim yellow lights, and occasionally, huge shadows could be seen flashing across the surface.
The trainees could even see large fish covered in barbs swimming in the river, their very appearance enough to inspire awe.
After observing from outside the wall for a while, the participants quickly gave up the idea of climbing the wall and instead began to look for the main gate.
However, the huge metal door of the main entrance was tightly closed, and only the side door had a crack, as if it had been torn open by some force.
Through this gap, one can vaguely see a narrow passage more than twenty yards long, only wide enough for one person to pass through.
Before long, a dozen or so students had gathered here, clearly those who had been searching for the Ark in the vicinity.
Through the narrow crack, they could see the ark in the distance, but no one dared to act rashly.
The gap is too narrow; once you enter, you'll be putting yourself under the guns of the Ark.
"Crack—Snap—"
With a soft thud, a hidden spike trap suddenly exploded, and the sides of the cracked passage were instantly covered with sharp spikes.
An assassin trainee who was sneaking into the crevice was stunned.
He looked up in the direction of Fangzhou, only to see Fangzhou waving at him and saying, "Goodbye, buddy, don't bother seeing me out."
Immediately afterwards, with a few sharp cracking sounds, the three skeleton archers summoned to the edge of the passage instantly shot and killed the assassin on the spot.
The moment the assassin fell, blood splattered onto the stone walls of the passage, appearing particularly glaring.
"As expected, there are pioneers. I admire these people."
"What, is anyone else coming to their deaths? I don't have enough points yet."
Fangzhou shouted at the students outside, his tone provocative.
That's too arrogant. That's the feeling of the students outside, and also the feeling of the students watching the battle.
Kill people directly, then unleash a map-wide attack.
Fangzhou's actions completely conveyed the attitude of "You're all trash, and instead of just fighting amongst yourselves, you're giving me free points."
"Fangzhou, do you really think you're invincible?" a mage student said coldly, his tone full of dissatisfaction.
"Exactly, what's with the smugness? If you're so tough, come out and fight me one-on-one. What kind of skill is it to hide inside?" a soldier cadet said disdainfully, his voice full of contempt.
"What kind of man hides in the shadows?"
As more and more students gathered outside, their voices grew louder and louder, as they shouted angrily, trying to provoke Fang Zhou with their words.
Faced with these provocations, Fang Zhou raised the necromancy orb in his hand, pointed it at the crowd, and said loudly: "You all came to besiege me, wanting to kill me and destroy my portable concentration meditation array, and you still want me to talk about morality?"
I only have two words for you: Come and fight.
"You ambushed my friend, and I'm here for revenge. It has nothing to do with any portable meditation array," the mage said with a disdainful look.
"We're here to avenge our friend," someone chimed in.
"You're dreaming. Portable concentration meditation array?"
Fang Zhou sneered, "Ridiculous, it's a waste of my breath to talk nonsense with you."
"Didn't you want a one-on-one fight? Come on, I'll give you a chance to come in. Do you dare?"
The mage student stepped forward and said, "Alright, I'm here. Watch me kill you. Everyone, cast shields on me!"
He cautiously entered the passageway through the crack, and after walking about ten yards, he reached the area where the first assassin trainee had triggered the spike trap.
The monk student revealed a confident smile, seemingly not taking these traps seriously.
"You think you can stump me with these things?"
The mage student smiled slightly, then his figure shifted and disappeared from his original spot, reappearing beyond the range of the three skeleton archers.
"Don't forget, I have a lot of movement skills."
However, just as he shifted his position, Fangzhou's arm suddenly turned and accurately captured the point where he would land.
With a crisp sound, the bone spear shot out from Ark's hand!
The moment the mage students appeared, the bone spears flew towards them with lightning speed.
He reacted quickly and swiftly cast a magical shield.
But the power of the bone spear was so great that it shattered the shield and then plunged deep into the mage student's throat.
The mage student clutched his neck, his smugness still lingering in his eyes, staring straight at the ark in disbelief.
However, his life had already ended, his soul turned into a white light, and he was eliminated from the competition. The words he wanted to say were forever stuck in his stomach.
"Who else?" Fang Zhou raised the crystal ball in his hand again and pointed at the people outside.
The sound echoed through the empty corridor, carrying an air of resistance.
Because of the angle, the students outside did not see the entire process of the monk student flashing inside.
However, as everyone knows, he is a rare mage class called "Swift Feather Fall," renowned for his skill in movement and evasion.
Although many people believe that he will definitely be Fang Zhou's opponent for a long time, he can at least be Fang Zhou's equal for a period of time.
As long as Ark can control the situation, even if it's just for a few seconds, as more and more students join the Butterfly Sect, the situation will eventually be decided by Ark alone.
Even the mighty Ark, once it crumbled, would still perish in bitterness.
But the current situation has left everyone dumbfounded.
Why did this Dharma student become silent as soon as he entered the temple?
Only the students watching from the sidelines throughout the entire competition could clearly see the whole process.
From the camera lens, everyone clearly saw that the moment the mage moved, Ark quickly adjusted its direction and launched the skeletal spear.
The mage student had barely appeared in his new position when the spear pierced his throat.
After a while, others started talking about it, and everyone realized it.
The moment the mage teleported, Ark had already determined the mage's new location using the trajectory of the Soul Vision.
This gave the mage no chance to teleport a second time; he was accurately shot in a vital spot and killed instantly.
"Another god-like prediction?! This is incredible!"
In the spectator area, a student exclaimed in astonishment, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"Damn, is this even human? Humans can predict movement skills, but how did he judge them so accurately?"
Another student couldn't help but complain, his voice filled with shock and resentment.
"The Ark master is invincible! I just want to ask, who else is there?"
Someone shouted, their voice filled with worship and awe.
Applause and cheers echoed over the viewing area of Haicheng Military Academy, as the spectators were completely captivated by Fang Zhou's performance.
Fang Zhou quickly cleaned up the battlefield, making sure no traces were left behind, before finally showing his face and addressing the students outside: "I'll ask again, is there anyone else who wants to come in and fight me one-on-one?"
Meanwhile, the number of participants outside has increased from just a few to more than a dozen, and the number of participants is still growing.
Many students felt their faces burning with embarrassment. They had been provoking each other for so long, only to have one of the students who was best at dodging walk in and spout nonsense.
As a result, he looked cool for less than three seconds before collapsing.
Everyone looked at each other, wondering what to do.
This slit-mouthed slave is truly alone; he can only live a life of shame.
The Ark's attack power is notoriously abnormal; trying to overpower the Nunan by swarming them would only result in certain death.
