Chapter 802 - 629 Heavy Hammer
Amidst the cheers of the audience, Long Yi, holding the shorter brother, flew towards the sky. Then, he suddenly dove toward the "Darkness Descending" Array from above, and the moment they touched the Array, Long Yi kicked him toward the center of it. Almost simultaneously, a mass of dark matter was summoned from within the Array, swallowing up the shorter brother instantly, and then collided with the larger man, who was lying on the ground utterly unable to struggle.
The black Crystal Stone shattered, and the dark matter vanished. Along with it, the brothers disappeared without a trace, completely devoured by the dark matter.
Clearly, this method of victory was not what the audience had initially wanted, but it was even more thrilling!
"So, what’s next..."
Long Yi, with a smile, was about to point his finger at someone.
"I surrender!"
Someone shouted loudly.
"I also surrender!"
"We all surrender!"
Everyone was scared witless, these people were originally brought in to help the brothers, and now that the brothers were gone, would they stay and court death? Although surrendering didn’t sound good or look good, it was certainly better than carelessly courting death!
"Shh..."
The arena was instantly filled with hissing sounds. People were here to watch a bloody battle, not to see cowards surrender. The audience’s dissatisfaction was clear and would greatly affect the warriors’ future prospects, but obviously, they didn’t care about their futures—they cared about their lives right now.
In the luxurious box, Ai Lin also smiled.
"This Long Yi really has some ability, his way of fighting is exactly like the one I imagined."
Having a similar fighting style means he has some ability?
The three Crown Princes by Ai Lin’s side were somewhat speechless. If they hadn’t brought Ai Lin here themselves, they would have thought this was a scenario pre-arranged between Ai Lin and Long Yi. But the fact was, neither Long Yi nor Ai Lin could have coordinated this. Not to mention Ai Lin, who had been under the watchful eyes of the Crown Princes for a long time. She simply did not have the time or opportunity to coordinate with Long Yi, who was in the Stellar Realm’s Arena. Furthermore, it had been the First Prince’s idea to come here.
They didn’t know that during the battle, through a contract unknown to everyone, Long Yi and Ai Lin had already exchanged a lot of information. Although Long Yi was busy fighting, Little Zi had already briefed Ai Lin on the events that had occurred since Long Yi arrived in this world. As for Ai Lin being able to accurately predict Long Yi’s moves, it was certainly not simple tacit understanding, because such understanding could allow Ai Lin to guess Long Yi’s fighting style, but would not allow her to predict specific actions.
Ai Lin’s spot-on predictions were undoubtedly informed to her by Long Yi himself!
But to the three Princes, it was viewed as Ai Lin’s terrifying insight.
"Alright, we’ve watched enough, shall we go?"
Ai Lin stood up, clapping her hands, preparing to leave. She had already exchanged enough information with Long Yi just now, and it was not the right time for a reunion. So, leaving to avoid showing any flaws seemed like the best option.
"It’s not over yet. According to the old rules, since Long Yi has completed the match so briskly, he definitely won’t simply step down like that," the First Prince quickly said.
"Is there another match?" Ai Lin asked.
"Yes, listen to these hisses, the officials certainly won’t allow the audience to watch the next match amidst booing," said Saint Cassio.
Indeed, just then, on one side of the Arena, lights suddenly blazed brightly, and a warrior with heavy footsteps walked out slowly!
"Hammerer Brick! It’s Hammerer Brick!"
The crowd, which had just been hissing, erupted into cheers.
Hammerer Brick was like an enlarged version of a Dwarf. It was evident that his body was almost as wide as it was tall, yet his height was not below Long Yi’s. This meant his width was far greater than Long Yi’s, at least his arms were thicker than Long Yi’s thighs.
Brick was wearing a heavy set of armor, equipped with gears and mechanisms, and maintained by Arrays. And the most conspicuous feature of Hammerer Brick was the huge hammer almost the size of his body that he carried behind his back.
As soon as he arrived at the Arena, Long Yi had already reviewed all his potential enemies. Hammerer Brick had also left a strong impression on him. He was a Highlander Dwarf, and although known as a Dwarf, it was only in comparison to the Mountain Giants that also lived on the same planet. In terms of height alone, Highlander Dwarves were taller than most humanoid beings on this Plane.
The Highlander Dwarves were most famous for their strength, possessing nearly unrivaled brute force in the entire Plane. Their ability to craft equipment was also outstanding. Brick had custom-made this Power Armor for himself. Aside from having strong defense capability, it could also multiply his brute force. The result of this enhancement was naturally the solid hammer on his back.
"Long Yi! I know you are a Mountain Giant, and your Rock Armor is sturdy. But we Highlander Dwarves have opened up many mountain ranges, and not a single mountain can stop us! Today you will see how my war hammer will smash your Rock Armor!"
Brick took out his huge war hammer, its runes twinkling, indicating these Runes helped him swing his hammer faster.
"I thought it was the King of the Arena who came down in person, turned out it’s just you, a Nameless nobody. Since you want to try, then I’ll give you the chance to get a taste of my guidance!"
The power of the rocks surged, and the solid Crystal Stone Armor promptly encased Long Yi in tight protection. At the same time, Brick, with heavy steps, charged forward. His body was so heavy that each step left footprints on the already sturdy ground. Meanwhile, Long Yi’s Crystal Stone Armor continued to thicken and became heavier. Simultaneously, a huge Crystal Stone war hammer slowly formed in Long Yi’s hands and directly collided with Brick’s hammer.
Boom!
The crystals burst, and the Crystal Stone war hammer in Long Yi’s hand was directly shattered by Brick’s hammer!
After one collision, Long Yi realized that the opponent’s hammer was not only big and hard but also vibrated at the moment of the impact. This vibration would instantly find the attacked party’s frequency, causing resonance, and eventually leading to their disintegration.
This could be described as an almost perfect form of offense.
"Good!"
Long Yi stepped back a few paces and roared. His Crystal Stone Armor shattered completely, and the sturdy fragments left countless scratches on Brick’s armor but did not harm the fundamentals.
The next moment, Long Yi’s body was covered with a layer of Magma Armor.
Unlike the Crystal Stone Armor, the Magma Armor was very flexible and hardly affected agility. With the Magma Armor on, Long Yi’s control over magma improved by another level!
After dodging Brick’s strike, Long Yi pounded the ground with several consecutive punches. Although the ground was solid rock, as long as it was still rock, it could be affected by the strength of Mountain Giants.
The rock began to melt slowly, and Brick suddenly felt the ground beneath his feet becoming unstable. His heavy armor and heavy hammer now became a burden to him.
"Damn it!"
Brick hurriedly stepped back a few paces.
"Kid! Come out if you dare! Stop setting traps!" Brick yelled from a distance.
"You come in if you dare!" Long Yi burst into laughter.
"You come out!"
"You come in!"
"You come out!"
"You come in!"
"Are they acting like children fighting?" Miss Ai Lin suddenly chuckled.
The three Princes couldn’t help but smile.
Then, the Third Prince suddenly asked, "Miss Ai Lin, how do you think Long Yi can win?"
Ai Lin shook her head and then said, "Easy, just burn those cumbersome metal armors with fire."
But the Second Prince, Saint Julio, shook his head and said, "That might be difficult. Brick’s armor is inscribed with Runes that can defend against fire attacks. Previously, a fire mage tried to burn Brick to death, but Brick withstood in that armor for a full twenty minutes, eventually exhausting the mage’s Mana and counter-killing."
Miss Ai Lin giggled and then said, "Then use lightning."
The First Prince also shook his head and said, "Although Brick’s armor cannot defend against Lightning Magic, there is a special insulation layer inside that can prevent lightning from reaching his body, which makes it tough."
Ai Lin shook her head and said, "Just watch and see."
The three Princes certainly did not believe her because Brick was an old soldier. He had encountered numerous enemies, and fire and lightning were not rare. As a bulky warrior, if he had no special defense against Magic, he might have long been played to death on the battlefield.
But seeing Ai Lin so confident, she did not seem to be bluffing; could it be that Long Yi still had some special method?
At that moment, however, Long Yi suddenly dissolved the Magma on the ground and his armor.
He flashed a radiant smile at Brick and said, "Although you’re too cowardly to attack, I, Long Yi, cannot learn from you. Come on, under the watchful eyes of the entire audience, I will cripple you today!"
Clearly, Long Yi’s bravery ignited the audience’s enthusiasm, and the childish squabbling between Long Yi and Brick was seen as a mere interlude.
Brick did not care about appearing cowardly; he was here to win. Blind bravery was definitely the display of a rookie!
Brick burst into laughter, hefting his hammer with one hand while pointing at Long Yi.
"Rest assured, kid. I see you have talent, and today I’m just going to teach you a lesson; I definitely won’t kill you! I want you to learn what happens on the battlefield when you underestimate your enemy!"
As he spoke, Brick charged again. But Long Yi did not dodge; his whole body’s Fighting Aura soared to its highest, and he even raised his fists high as if he planned to withstand Brick’s hammer with his bare hands?
Seeing that Long Yi intended to catch his hammer bare-handed, Brick burst into laughter and put even more strength behind his attack. But at the same time, Long Yi suddenly leaped high, Brick’s hammer nearly grazing his body as it fell and slammed heavily onto the ground.
The solid ground was directly smashed apart, revealing the soft Lava beneath!
"Damn! It’s a trap!"
Brick stood on the edge of the Magma, just about to retreat, but Long Yi had already charged to his back, his body clad in heavy Crystal Stone Armor and slamming heavily into Brick’s back.
"You might as well go in!" (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to qidian.com to vote for recommendation tickets, monthly tickets; your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read at m.qidian.com.)
