Chapter 676 second match (ii)

CAI HONG also known as Razor by everyone here moved his neck from side to side as if cracking it. What he said earlier was true. The deep wound he sustained really 'woke' him up.

It's not that he was really asleep. His focus was just not on the things that were happening right now. That's why his reaction was a bit too dull. His avatar was simply giving the appropriate reaction on every action that was thrown at him. Like a robot moving on auto-pilot.

But because of the wound inflicted on him, his mind cleared and he was now completely awake. So, he hadn't really made an effort since earlier. He really should not have stayed awake until morning. Because of that, he only had a couple of hours of sleep. So, this wound was pretty much well-deserved for not taking things seriously.

Before Cai Hong could decide what his next move would be, he saw his opponent rushing towards him. He raised a brow. Seeing the red glow on the other's sword, he understood that this guy was most likely using some kind of skill and was now on a time limit to finish everything before the effect of that skill ended.

He could tell that the skill had something to do with increasing the other's overall stats. Even though he wasn't quite 'awake' since the start of their fight, he could still feel the difference with the other's attack from when the match started to the attack that caused the wound.

His opponent's attack became much faster, heavier, and stronger. This type of skill would most likely end within a minute at most. That's why the other wanted to end this match before the effect of the skill disappeared. Because after that skill, it would probably take a while before he could use another skill of the same magnitude. Unless, of course, he still had something hidden in his sleeve.

Seeing the other already getting close, instead of jumping and running away until Wild Rock's skill entered cool down, Cai Hong also rushed forward. Obviously, trying to face the attack head on.

As he moved, he quickly took out a low-grade potion to restore a bit of his dwindling HP because of the wound on his shoulder. It would probably be better to use a high-grade potion. But he only had three of those. He decided to only use it during an emergency. And this situation barely counted as one.

The reason why he only had that much high-grade was mainly because of its price. It was too high in his opinion. And he simply found it a waste of crystal coins. He'd rather have those crystal coins converted into real money than used it to buy such things.

Well, it didn't really matter. Cai Hong just had to make sure that he wouldn't receive another blow like this again.

The two then met at the middle of the stage, their weapons clashing. Cai Hong frowned a bit after feeling the heaviness of his opponent's blade. His feet once again sunk on the ground.

Now, that he's more 'awake', he really could feel just how much increase there was on the other's strength. It's almost miracle that he was able to survive until now with the bare minimum amount of effort he put through so far.

He knew he couldn't fight this Wild Rock head on in terms of strength. So, he just had to fight using methods he was good at.

Cai Hong dashed to the side, his movement was much more fluid and even much faster. That's why even when Wild Rock's sword slashed down, it did not graze him. There was a short period of time before Wild Rock could raise his sword again after his attack. But that time was probably only for a short two seconds.

That was enough for him.

He moved at lightning speed and aimed at the other's neck. Wild Rock must have felt the dagger coming for his neck because he quickly turned his body to the side. But that was not really what he was aiming for. He just did that to camouflage what he really wanted to do.

He activated one of his skills [Butterfly Mark]. While his opponent hadn't still returned to his normal battle posture, he stretched out his hand and touched the other's back.

The other didn't feel anything but a butterfly symbol had already appeared on his back. Wild Rock spun around at that moment with his sword and he almost cut off Cai Hong's hand that he just pulled back.

He then jumped back, putting distance between them. There's no reason for him to fight melee because he had already accomplished what he had to for his skill to work. He took out five small knives that were holstered on his thigh and threw them consecutively towards Wild Rock.

The other easily dodged them and just rushed towards Cai Hong. But what he didn't know was that those knives that he had just dodged swerved and followed his trail.

Cai Hong decided to just stand where he was. Because there's no point anymore in running away. The moment he did, Wild Rock reached him and slashed at him. But before he could do so, he grunted and froze in place. His hold over the sword loosened and it fell on the rink with a thud. Then, black marks started to appear on his skin that was already turning gray.

He looked at Cai Hong with an unbelieving expression on his face before falling down face first on the floor. Behind him, the five small knives formed an 'X' shape on the place where the butterfly mark was before.

That was how his skill [Butterfly Mark] worked. Once he touched something, a butterfly mark would appear and it would act as a homing mark. Whatever weapon he would throw then would follow that mark relentlessly until they reached the target.

Of course, that wouldn't be enough to eliminate someone. But it just so happened that he coated his knives with a highly poisonous toxin. Any monster or player that was stabbed by his knives would die in a second.

Seeing the other slowly turning into light spot, Cai Hong knew that he had won.
