Chapter 159 Battle at Level 5
Orario, Underground Passage.
In the open space cleared by the crowd, Ryu and Dix walked toward each other and stopped five meters apart.
"Swift Wind, I'm getting sick of hearing your name lately," Dix said.
Roy and Ryu are undoubtedly among the most prominent adventurers in Orario over the past six months, having wiped out multiple Familias and broken records in their leveling up.
If it weren't for the "Berserker" who suppressed the Freya Familia, the "one of" could be dropped.
The strongest LV.7 adventurer is too dazzling.
Even now, people are still searching for each other.
"Brutal Thug, I haven't really heard of you before," said Liu, who was as cold as an ice queen.
"That's truly your misfortune!"
Dix was not angry at all; on the contrary, he was happy. Not having heard much about him meant that the other party did not know his information. Wasn't that a good thing?
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the battle between Ryu and Dix, two LV.5 adventurers, was about to begin.
Suddenly, a loud explosion ripped through the air!
Dix took a single step forward, his figure carrying immense momentum, forcefully smashing through layers of darkness, charging straight towards them like a tumbling boulder. His blood-red spear brought with it a muffled whistling wind; even before the spear arrived, the fierce gust of wind pressed down first, causing Liu's cloak to flutter wildly, and the water beneath his feet to ripple.
The spear tip transformed into a streak of blood-red light, like a crimson lightning bolt piercing through the twilight, aiming for Liu's head.
Liu's figure swayed slightly, like a green bamboo leaf startled by a strong wind, drifting away lightly.
With a swift, silent strike, the sword tip lightly touched the heavy spear's spine, not as a direct hit, but with a slight, deft touch. With a clang, the sharp blade grazed past, deflecting the incoming crimson spear and sending it crashing heavily into the ground to Dix's left.
boom!
With a deafening roar, the water surface and floor that were touched by the gun tip shattered, and debris shot out like a torrential rain!
It left behind a crater more than ten meters deep.
The two figures shot out so fast that their movements were barely visible to the naked eye.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The weapons were wielded like a storm, countless afterimages intersecting, sparks exploding, and the crisp sound of metal clashing echoing in the silent underground passage, incredibly clear.
This is the power of a LV.5 adventurer!
Both have entered the realm of the non-human.
Even an army of thousands of ordinary people is nothing more than clay chickens and earthen dogs in front of them.
Sword blades and spear tips clashed with a resounding clang! A clear dragon's roar and a deep tiger's howl collided violently, their sound piercing and deafening. Sparks flew through the dim underground passage, mingling with blue and gold, instantly illuminating the two faces.
Liu was as still as an ancient well, while Dix's eyes were bloodshot, as if a terrifying poisonous flame was burning inside.
As the battle intensified, Ryū gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.
Simply put, Dix has higher stats and has been using man-made mazes to capture monsters in dungeons for years, so he is more experienced and skilled.
There's no reason why they can't suppress Ryu, who recently upgraded.
"Captain, take her down!"
"Dix, if you lose, we won't let you off the hook!"
The members of the Ikeros Familia shouted and clamored.
"Miss Ryu won't lose!" Daphne said with a worried expression, clenching her fists. All of her skills were taught to her by Ryu herself. To her, Ryu was both a teacher and a friend, and she was more nervous than anyone else at this moment.
Cassandra murmured, interpreting the "prophetic dream".
The goddess Astraea stared at Ikeros, vaguely sensing something unusual.
Roy also focused most of his attention on the duel.
Ikelos and Dix may have thought they could defeat them through a duel, but little did they know that this rule was also extremely advantageous to him and Ryu.
This is two against one!
Synchronization Contract!
Roy's mind stirred, and he activated the power of the contract.
Ryu, who was in the midst of a fierce battle, glanced at Roy without leaving a trace, and finally accepted the connection.
In a normal duel, Ryu might not care about winning or losing, but if she loses now, it could cause her clan to suffer huge losses, and Roy would have to cut off his own arm.
Roy clutched his lower back. During the Synchronization Contract, the other person's stats dropped by 30%, making him feel as if his body had been hollowed out, giving him a feeling of kidney deficiency.
The situation is quite the opposite in Ryukyu.
Having received Roy's power, new strength surged within Liu's petite body.
Liu Tian's blue eyes flashed as his original (1) ability value was upgraded to E level.
Her aura underwent a dramatic change. The increase in this value was enormous. It was astonishing that Roy, who had worked hard for two or three years and reached LV.3, could provide her with such a terrifying boost. Liu was also incredibly surprised.
This suggests that Roy's stats have likely exceeded their limits with each level up, and right now.
Ryu was shocked to learn that this young man's talent was enough, no, even surpassed that of the witch Alphia he had encountered two years ago.
Ryu composed herself; her priority now was to protect her fellow members and prevent anyone from harming Roy.
With her belief and ability stats boosted, Ryu switched from defense to offense, and her fierce attack instantly startled Dix.
Liu's wooden sword, with its wild and untamed aura like a mad tiger, crisscrossed the floor within several feet, causing it to groan under its weight and leaving deep marks in the mist.
The raging sword shadows seemed to transform into an elusive streak of light, forcing Dix to retreat.
The blade flashed and flickered, like a serpent emerging from its hole.
Each thrust was precisely aimed at Dix, and although the tiny, hair-like flaws in his opponent did not cause serious injury, they left long, narrow tears on his light, tight-fitting clothes, from which blood seeped.
In the heat of battle, Dix finally realized something was wrong: "Your stats are higher than mine?"
These words caused an uproar in the room.
However, they couldn't imagine that such a magical thing as "synchronization contract" existed in the world; they only thought that Ryu possessed some special skills that enhanced his abilities.
This is Orario, a place that never lacks geniuses!
With higher stats, Ryu began chanting as she attacked, "The forest and sky that have now faded into the distance. The endless night sky inlaid with countless stars!"
Upon seeing Ryu's incredibly fast parallel chanting, Dix was undoubtedly startled and became extremely agitated.
Once the magic is unleashed, the outcome of the battle will be decided in an instant!
"Don't even think about it!"
Dix roared and unleashed all his strength. His blood-red spear, with a roar that seemed to split mountains and shatter rocks, shot out like a dragon, aiming to pierce through Liu! Wherever the spear tip passed, deep trenches were plowed into the ground.
Just as the spear was about to strike her body, Liu sighed softly, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.
With a light touch of her toes, she moved forward instead of backward, like a weightless willow leaf, drifting towards the devastating crimson spear.
Lord of Thunder!
Ryu then used Roy's incantationless magic.
Golden lightning crackled around the wooden sword, which then stabbed fiercely at the incoming spear tip, their sharp edges clashing.
