Chapter 869 - 105: Territory Nemesis · Khorne’s Chosen One · Ganser_2
Hilude watched the fierce battle between the two on the field with a heavy expression. After equipping perfect-level weapons and armor, the momentum of their battle became exceptionally powerful.
Based solely on momentum and destructive power, their performance even surpassed that of Elite Knights using training weapons. The difference only lay in the mastery of Bloodline Abilities and the refinement of Martial Arts. But these finer things require a higher level of talent to discern. For the audience, who are the absolute majority, this immense spectacle is what thrills them the most, so the cheers on the field quickly reached unprecedented heights since the start of the match.
This, in turn, further fueled the competitive hearts of the two men on the field, determined to win this battle at any cost.
Their breaths were burning hot, and their lungs felt like they were on fire. From afar, the summer air around them appeared distorted, like blazing flames, rising with a fiery aura.
On Hilude’s heroic face was a look of gravity. She replied to Su Li, "The state of both is not good. Their spirits are too excited. The loud cries and noises have ignited their thoughts. Right now, their emotions are extremely driven toward victory, which could more easily attract the attention of the Evil God."
Almost as soon as the words fell, the situation on the battlefield changed. Orlando suddenly used the fire he had planted, causing Ganser to endure a massive explosion almost instantaneously, collapsing into a pool of blood.
This was Orlando’s Bloodline Ability. Every attack left a spark of Fiery Sun Fire within the opponent, making their inner fire burn fiercely. As for when to ignite these sparks, it was up to Orlando’s choice.
As a Knight of the Sun Goddess, undoubtedly, his choice was impeccable. When Ganser’s life state dropped to a dangerous level, as he hesitated about using his Bloodline Ability to purify his state and restore his life line, Orlando decisively seized the moment to defeat this formidable enemy.
This meant Orlando took the match point in advance. Ganser could only redeem himself one last time. If he lost the next match, there wouldn’t be a seventh round, and Orlando would lock in the victory early.
A dense iron tang spread throughout the center of the arena. Ganser, ignoring the fresh blood on him, roared angrily as he stood up again from the thick pool of blood, with blood beads flowing out from his armor.
This scene instantly incited the spectators on the field into a frenzy. Even the gamblers supporting his opponent couldn’t help cheering for him. This is the powerful combat strength of the Imperial Knight, with extreme resilience and strength, and an almost maxed-out resistance to attacks. Once a Knight successfully steps into the extraordinary, their life energy becomes very strong; no matter how severe the injury, it’s difficult to kill them.
But they did not notice that Ganser, who was being celebrated and cheered, had his armor bulging, and his throat could no longer make any sound.
Hilude furrowed her brows, grabbing the Sword by her feet, and left the room. As she waved her hand, nearly a hundred Golden Armor warriors entered the arena in advance, surrounding the stage tightly.
This scene of clashing metal and horses made the surrounding crowd feel a bit puzzled, but they didn’t think much of it, assuming it was a preparation for the championship award ceremony.
But soon everyone realized something was wrong. The battle, which had been evenly matched before, suddenly turned into a one-sided beatdown!
Orlando’s Thrusting Sword struck Ganser, and the powerful White Wolf Knight didn’t even flinch. Even though his chest blocked the Thrusting Sword’s attack and blood streamed down, he didn’t waver for a moment. Then he lifted a hand and broke Orlando’s sword-wielding arm, nearly fracturing it at 90 degrees. With a kick, Orlando flew out like a cannonball, shattering the chains on the stage and falling into the dust.
Ganser’s Shin Guards also shattered from this blow, revealing a clawed foot that had turned blood-red, with five sharp talons as sharp as blades.
Ganser then threw down his helmet, revealing his scarlet eyes like a jackal’s, with sharp fangs already grown in his mouth.
A burst of exclamations swept through the arena, as they saw the Chaos Eight-pointed Star, the sign of Khorne’s blessing, on his forehead! This was Khorne’s blessing.
The nearby referee immediately rushed into the arena, and as a Champion Level Knight, he swung his Warhammer towards Ganser’s head.
Under normal circumstances, an Official Knight facing this attack would have no chance of blocking it, the disparity in level was simply too great.
But Ganser suddenly swung a War Axe, standing still to block the strike of the Golden Warhammer, the loud clash of metal echoing terrifyingly throughout the entire arena.
After a brief silence, an even more heated cheer erupted within the arena! Witnessing a battle between the Champion of Khorne and the Sun Goddess Champion, this match was worth every moment!
Hilude had no intention to duel with the Champion of Khorne and decisively ordered, "No need to duel with Chaos Warriors, use our advantage to quickly kill him."
With her command, all the referees left the field, and as many as six Champion Knights surrounded him, their golden light dazzling and their momentum overwhelming, drawing continuous cheers and applause from the spectators. Even those gamblers who had already lost didn’t have time for tears of regret, their eyes firmly fixed on the center of the arena.
