Chapter 957: Death from Chest Pain

Translator:Sean88888Editor:Elkassar1

Merely 35 seconds later, the dimensional portal opened again, and two figures fell out. Our dear Mr. Rambo appeared to be unhurt, but he looked as if he had seen a ghost. He covered his chest and ran away frantically. He didn't even have the courage to look back.

On the other hand, Fate was covered in wounds. However, the blue magic barrier around him shone bright, and even had some flames faintly burning on its surface. It was as brilliant as the sun in the sky, forcing others to avert their gazes!

Hi eyes swept around and stopped on Sheyan. Then, he moved over with large strides!

Fate seemed to have the confidence to kill Sheyan now!

"You're currently plagued by misfortune! During this period, everything will go against you!"

"You're in an open area, which is totally disadvantageous for someone like you who lacks ranged attacks!"

"Fate, your only backup is currently being pursued by even more people than you are, while my backup is coming. I have the advantage in terms of personnel."

"You're at the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong people. You will lose this battle for sure!"

(TL: Sun Tzu's Art of War: Only launch a battle when the time is right, and the geographical and social conditions are favorable.)

The voice of Fate reverberated directly in Sheyan's mind. Sheyan smiled in a relaxed manner.

"If victory were decided by words, you would have won for sure. Unfortunately, it's not the tongue that decides victory, but the fist!"

Fate narrowed his eyes and he suddenly laughed.

"What a stubborn man!"

Before Fate had even finished his words, he had already took a step forward.

As soon as Fate was within two meters of Sheyan, Sheyan immediately found out how Fate could beat Mr. "Rambo" into fleeing.

An unbearable heat transmitted over as Fate got close. However, the heat seemed to be generated from the inside of Sheyan's body and spread to the outside, so there was no visible abnormality. The heat felt very viscous, as if the surrounding air had melted like magma and stuck to the surface of Sheyan's body, restricting his movement. Sheyan found that his movement speed had been reduced!

This was the final card up Fate's sleeve, the 'Raging Flame of Magic', which would continuously burn a large amount of his MP to attack the enemy. It was extraordinarily powerful, but it also had two major drawbacks. Firstly, when MP was burned, the upper limit of MP would temporarily reduce too. He must wait until he returned to the realm before he could recover from the effect. Secondly, the range of the attack was only about two to three meters.

For contestants like Sheyan, an attack range of two meters was more than enough, but for a mage-type contestants, it was worse than useless! Their opponents would be really happy to see them get so close! However, Fate had integrated it into his own offensive system to bring out its maximum power.

First, he had the ability to carry out ultra long range attacks and could kill the enemy before they realised what happened.

Even if he was somehow discovered by the enemy, Fate could usually escape by virtue of the distance between them. In this stage, gunmen posed the greatest threat to Fate, so this guy got himself a titanium mesh magic barrier that was extremely effective against long-range attacks! This would force those who were good at long range attacks to have no choice but to engage in close range fights with him, after which he would give them a taste of his 'Raging Flame of Magic'! Such a combination of abilities was guaranteed to be a great success!

The few seconds when Sheyan was being burned by the 'Raging Flame of Magic' saw his HP drop like water leaking out of a bucket. In addition, the 'Raging Flame of Magic' also carried a speed reduction effect. Running away was no longer a viable option after getting caught in it. Don't forget that Sheyan was also plagued by misfortune at the moment, so even if he tried to run away, the world would throw hurdles in his way.

Therefore, the only way to survive this predicament was to kill Fate before Fate killed him. This was practically the only choice left to anyone who had fallen into this trap of Fate's. But Fate knew this as well, so given his shrewdness, how could he not be prepared?

The titanium mesh barrier on his body underwent a slight change. Initially, the inner titanium mesh consisted of numerous little squares, but they had now become rhombuses. The barrier had shifted from specialising against long ranged attacks to specialising against close ranged attacks.

With an angry shout, Sheyan pulled out '+ 7 West' and executed a slash, but the result was pretty meagre. It wasn't because the power of '+7 West' had shrunk, but because the titanium mesh magic barrier had provided Fate with thousands of points of additional HP. If Sheyan did not break the barrier, he wouldn't be able to harm Fate.

Fate had appeared right in front of Sheyan by now. His did not have high Strength and Agility but it was evident he had put in a lot of work on his basic footwork and body movement. It was a great pity that "Rambo" managed to run away. Considering that Sheyan was ridden with bad luck and did not specialise in Agility, Fate was confident that Sheyan could never escape from his 'Raging Flame of Magic'!

Sheyan clenched his fist. Although the heat made his breath heavy and he felt like his innards were burning, his mind was as cool as ice. Fate could not see Sheyan's eyes because Sheyan had his head buried low, but at that moment, he saw Sheyan smirk.

An ominous feeling gripped him.

Sheyan took a deep breath, and a sudden mass of red fog coiled around his body. A layer of light as blue as a clear sky enshrouded his hands and his weapon!

'Strength of the Sky'! That's right, this was Sheyan's powerful new-found ability, 'Strength of the Sky'! Meanwhile, the 'Zergling Rush' effect had long been triggered.

[Strength of the Sky: Perform a Strength check for every successful hit on the enemy. If you pass the Strength check, there is a 25% chance to interrupt a random beneficial effect on the target (including, but not limited to, attribute buffs, protective layers, and aura effects). Lasts for 30 seconds. This ability can be repeatedly triggered, but there will only be one interrupted effect (unable to stack). This ability has domain precedence.]

The two men were so close that Sheyan only needed to take a step forward to hit Fate with the three-punch combo. The effect of the 'Strength of the Sky' was successfully triggered on the first punch. The titanium mesh magic barrier covering Fate instantly cracked.

When the second blow fell, the sky blue energy landed entirely on Fate's body. The cracked titanium mesh magic barrier shattered like broken porcelain into large pieces and disappeared when they touched the ground.

Without the protection of the titanium mesh magic barrier, no matter how strong his 'Raging Flame of Magic' was, there was no way Fate could face off with Sheyan in a direct confrontation with his meagre HP!

Fate, however, still looked unperturbed. As soon as his barrier was broken, a strange buzzing sound came from all over his body. His body lost its solidness, becoming illusionary - even now, he still had tricks to save his life!

Unfortunately for him, Sheyan would always make sure he got the job done. Once the titanium mesh magic barrier broke, a projection of the 'Stairway of the Sun' immediately emerged behind Sheyan with its tendrils flailing about threateningly. It then evaporated like mists and turned into the form of an ordinary-looking black snake.

Those who hadn't seen this snake before wouldn't understand its horror.

This was an illusionary image of an Ouroboros.

Sheyan's 'Beast of Corrosion' ability would automatically choose the most effective way to attack according to the current enemy and environment. At this moment, it chose to turn into the strange and mysterious ancient snake of evil. It rushed out and chomped down on Fate's thigh!

Fate finally screamed in agony despite himself! The pain from the bite of the Ouroboros would multiply when it acted on the pain receptors. The intense pain almost unraveled Fate's body. His bitten thigh immediately blackened, the muscles on it rotting and emitting a foul smell. Pus appeared everywhere on the thigh. If he could see the bones inside, he would realise that even the bones had turned black!

But Fate's last resort managed to show its effect. His whole body began to turn into particles and then be teleported to a pre-designated place. Sheyan had seen this before in the Pirates of the Caribbean world. It was called a high-energy short-range teleportation device and could be bought with reputation points.

The difference between the this one and the one Sheyan had seen before was that the latter was a team version which could send a certain number of people in non-combat state to a fixed location within five kilometers. The one Fate used was an individual version which could transmit the user to a fixed location within 500 meters even in a combat state. It's hard to say which version was better.

"Within five hundred meters?" Sheyan narrowed his eyes.

"I have pursued Fate all the way here, during which time he has not left my sight. That is to say, he has no chance to specially arrange a transmission point, so his transmission location is obviously somewhere on his escape route.... Behind me! Within five hundred meters on the path he took to come here!"

Sheyan abruptly turned around and immediately saw the limping figure of Fate running away. Sheyan naturally couldn't let Fate escape. He instantly gave chase.

But he forgot that he was still plagued by misfortune. He stepped on a banana skin and almost fell on his butt. However, there was no way Sheyan was going to give up because of that. He still gritted his teeth and pursued desperately. He would not give up even if the world decided to go against him.

Sheyan's movement speed was originally about the same as Fate's, but Fate had suffered a heavy blow to his thigh and was also plagued by a disease. They symptoms would flare up from time to time, slowing him further. Even with Sheyan being delayed by various misfortunes, he could still keep pace with Fate.

The distance between them was maintained at about 500 meters throughout the chase. Under such circumstances, there was no doubt that Sheyan was optimistic with his chances. The two of them kept up the run and pursuit relentlessly.

After turning a corner, Sheyan lost sight of Fate, but ten seconds later, he received some notifications from the nightmare imprint:

[The symptom of your disease: chest pain has caused 97 damage.] (the damage of the 'Stairway of the Sun' had increased after it grew.)

[You have killed Awakener No. ???? code-named Fate.]
