Chapter 676: 676. Knives Against Bullets

"He truly didn't use his arms," Jack said.

"Show-off," Paytowin uttered.

"He has the right to show-off since he has the ability," Domon said, he then turned to Leavemealone, "Should we leave?"

Leavemealone stood up without saying anything. Domon stood as well. The two then left.

Wong and the revived Kill Order walked back to their seats as the next participants entered the arena.

Archer Section Match 4

Ronald Dreary, level 46 Gunner (ethereal) Vs Anotherday, level 46 Hidden Weapon Specialist (elf)

*

Anotherday's expression looked deadpan but Jack could see the tense glints in his eyes. He bore the same burden as Handsome Joe in his previous match, he couldn't afford to lose this match.

Both men stood opposite each other in the arena. Both wore a long coat that covered most of their bodies, concealing their weapons. Ronald swiped his coat aside, revealing his two revolvers. As before, he didn't take them out. His hands simply hung beside the weapons. But everyone who had seen his match before understood that his stance now had no difference with the guns already in his hands, ready to shoot.

"Begin!" Pallas declared.

At the same time as Pallas' word was heard, Anotherday's coat moved and a knife shot out. It was a flying knife that was thrown using Archer's skill, Precise Shot. Aside from enhancing damage, this skill also increased the speed of the projectile. The throwing dagger zoomed with blinding speed, almost as fast as a bullet.

*BANG*

Yet, a gunshot was heard and the speeding flying knife was knocked out in the air.

Ronald had made a shot from the hip using his left revolver. Almost instantly, his right hand turned into a blur and the right revolver also fired from his hip.

*BANG*

Followed soon after the sound of that last gunshot was the clanging sound of metal hitting metal. Anotherday was holding his knife right in front of his forehead. He had predicted the gunner to target his forehead the same as the previous match. The bullet had hit the knife instead.

At the same time, Anotherday moved to the side as four flying knives were thrown.

Ronald made two simultaneous shots. Two of the flying knives were hit in the air, and they flew at an angle that hit the two other flying knives, canceling all four flying knives. The spectators' eyes were bulging seeing the display.

"F*ck! Is he playing a pool game using his bullets?" Paytowin uttered.

Anotherday who was on the move was no less shocked than the others, but he didn't let his assault stop. His enemy's accuracy was too inhuman. He needed to keep the offense to stand a chance. It's a good thing a Hidden Weapon Specialist had the highest attacking rate among the range classes. His hands never stopped throwing weapons while his legs never stopped running.

Anotherday took a chance when his Flying Dagger skill was off cooldown to throw four knives again. At the same time, he threw a boomerang that targeted Ronald from the side. Ronald would have to move if he was to avoid all the attacks.

Yet, Ronald insisted to stay on his ground. In exchange, he used his first skill in this tournament, Rapid Shot. Five shots were fired consecutively from his right gun, indicating his Rapid Shot was at least level 15. His left gun fired a shot to the side, hitting the boomerang in the air.

The five Rapid Shot's bullets hit the four flying knives without fail while the fifth bullet hit Anotherday's leg.

Anotherday endured the pain but never slow his movement down. Against such a highly-skilled shot, staying still was identical to a shooting dummy. He continued his assault and threw another knife using Precise Shot.

Ronald fired simultaneous shots again. One bullet hit the knife in the air while the other hit Anotherday's other leg.

The gunner, however, was surprised when he saw that after the throwing knife in the air bounced away, there was a small round ball flying towards him. The small ball had been flying behind the knife, out of sight.

The small ball was Anotherday's Exploding Bullet, the ball was already close to Ronald by then. It then exploded.

Ronald could no longer insist on staying on the same spot. He moved to the side in an attempt to dodge the explosion, but he was still hit and damaged by it.

Anotherday wasn't going to let this chance go. He immediately rushed forward and unleashed Concealing Needle.

Thirty needles came at Ronald from all directions, sealing his escape. Seeing there was no way to escape, Ronald used his Throw Grenade skill. The grenade, however, was thrown just a little bit above his head. The grenade exploded, damaging himself in the process.

The force of the explosion, in the process, struck all the flying needles coming his way. The needles were thin and weak. All thirty needles couldn't bear the explosive wind and were swept away. Everyone who was watching was in consternation seeing the gunner using such a self-harm way to save himself. But when they thought about it, if the thirty needles hit, the damage would be much more than the grenade damage. Not to mention the paralyzing effect, it would open up Ronald to further attacks.

That was actually Anotherday's plan. He didn't expect his opponent to use such a suicide move to ruin his plan. But he couldn't afford to stop. He threw his knife into the smoke from the grenade explosion. A normal Throw Grenade skill wouldn't have left that much smoke. Anotherday guessed it was a skill modified by a seed.

He had also summoned his Grey Sharp-winged Eagle when he threw the Concealing Needle. It was currently flying above and was swooping down at Ronald who was still inside the smoke.

A shadow shot out from the smoke and snapped the flying knife in the air. When the shadow landed, Anotherday found it to be an odd creature that looked like a cross between a dog, badger, and raccoon. It had black-ring eyes and a body covered with white and grey striped fur.

"That's a Boom Hound," Peniel uttered when she recognized the creature. "It's a rare elite beast monster, but small enough size to be an archer's pet."

The Boom Hound made a shrilling sound. The sound created a sonic bullet that shot out from its mouth. The Hound's accuracy and attack speed were not as good as its master's, so Anotherday could still easily dodge its attack with his speed.

Its movement was fast though, it ran forward amongst Anotherday's knife throws. Its hide was thick enough to endure the knife attacks.

Ronald, who had Anotherday's eagle swooping down at him, aimed his revolvers up. Two bullets shot and hit accurately at the eagle's wing bones. The eagle's HP was high enough to tank the damage but the hit to its wing bones caused it to lose its ability to fly for a moment. It fell to the floor as Ronald moved away.

Anotherday used Powder Throw to the Boom Hound that had come near.

"He shouldn't have let that Boom Hound comes so near," Peniel commented from the spectator seats.

"Why?" Jack asked.

The Boom Hound itself answered the question. When it was blinded by Anotherday's skill. It opened its jaws wide and released a deafening high-pitch sound. A shockwave radiated from the beast. Anotherday was hit by this sonic shockwave.

He received small damage, but that was not the problem. At the same time, he was also inflicted by Curse and Confused effect. Both negative effects prevented him from using skills. He could only make a normal range throw for a duration.

Due to the surprise of suffering from the negative effects, Anotherday's movement had stopped. Ronald's bullets came then. Two bullets hit almost at the same time at the side of Anotherday's head, scoring critical damage.

Without the ability to use skills added by the critical hits just now, Anotherday's heart sank. He wanted to run again but the mood affected his movements. He was not as fast as before. Another two shots came and hit his head again, claiming his life.

Match four of the Archer section ended with another victory for the heavenly enforcer.

Handsome Joe slammed the side of his seat. He didn't blame Anotherday. He was blaming himself for not being strong enough. He looked over to where Darkradiant and Blackhole. Even if Darkradiant could win her match, another heavenly enforcer still needed to be defeated. Could it be done by the other participants? Were they to lose getting the item they came here for and even had to watch the enemy get what they after?

Anotherday, after reviving, had the same gloomy expression. His cold face that was as if nothing could bother him, was now having a frown.

"You are good," he heard a voice from his side. He looked over and saw it was Ronald who was talking to him.

"Good enough that I deem you a worthy target. I will put you on my list. See you again in the wilderness, hehe."

The ethereal gunner went away after that.
