After David left Master Prome's laboratory at noon, he went straight to the Sky Tower to buy tickets for Angel's game.
But even David only had a vague guess about Toby's strength. He had seen Toby's speed and the scarred body of the dog herder when Toby killed him. Based on comprehensive inference,
Toby should have considerable strength.
But he never thought that Toby would be so strong.
David suddenly felt a cold sweat on his back. When he and Angel first met, he had tricked Toby once... If he had known that Toby was so powerful, he would not have provoked him in the first place!
In the center of the ring, Angel pointed at Selena with a machine-wrist crossbow.
"What? You still won't admit defeat?" Angel said in a low voice.
Selena said nothing, with an inexplicable obsession in her eyes, and no intention of admitting defeat.
However, she had multiple fractures all over her body, especially the shoulder blade that was kicked by Toby. The injury was almost crushing, causing her to completely lose her fighting ability. It was almost impossible for her to fight again.
But Selena still didn't admit defeat. She held her shoulder with one hand and stumbled to her feet. Even when she stood up, she was shaky and uncontrollable.
The physical tremors were not reflected on her face, which was blurred by dust and blood, and remained expressionless.
"So stubborn?" An inexplicable thought flashed through Angel's mind. Isn't it just a loss? It's just a deduction of 4 points. I didn't kill you. Why do you and I have a deep hatred and have to beat you down again and again?
Angel originally had a good impression of Selena at the beginning. There were too few players in the Sky Tower who didn't talk nonsense, and Selena was the only one. But at this time, he felt a little unhappy.
Life and death are not taboos in the Sky Tower arena, especially in the third level of death, where countless players were killed or injured.
I have no intention of killing, but you don't know what's good or bad. It makes him look like a villain, and opposite him is the protagonist who refuses to admit defeat. How can Angel be happy?
"In that case, then—" Angel raised his mechanical crossbow, and his magic power began to fluctuate.
"No! She admits defeat, she admits defeat!" At this time, the audience, who was so surprised by the scene in the ring that they were in a trance, suddenly burst into a roar.
Angel looked over, and Selena looked over when she heard a familiar voice.
I saw a black man rushing down and coming to the edge of the ring, looking at Angel with a pleading look on his face.
The black man is Dupont, Selena's brother.
Angel didn't speak, just turned his head and continued to look at Selena.
When Dupont saw this, he quickly turned to look at the sister who couldn't turn the string.
"Selena, give up now. It's my brother's fault. I don't want you to teach this brat a lesson... ahem, Mr. Milk Baron."
Angel: "..." It turns out that the reason why she didn't admit defeat was because her brother sent such a shameless mission.
Selina looked at Dupont, and after a long while, she vomited blood and said lightly: "Oh."
"Oh what, throw away the information card!" Dupont urged from the side, fearing that Angel would change his mind.
Selina nodded obediently and threw the information card out with difficulty.
"The game is over! Milk Baron wins!"
…
Back to two minutes ago, Dupont had just rushed to the edge of the ring.
"As the supervisor, won't you stop the off-site interference on-site?" Baroque looked at Melanza.
Melanza shook her head: "As long as he doesn't get on stage 6 and runs naked outside, we have no right to stop him. But I'm curious about what choice Angel will make."
Baroque chuckled, with a playful expression on his face: "As a disciple of Sanders, I haven't killed anyone along the way. It's really a pity."
After hearing this, Melanza smiled and said: "It's not that I won't kill, it's that I haven't reached the bottom line yet."
As the director of the Sky Tower Management Office, Melanza knew the contestants very well. How the Dog Shepherd and Red Butterfly disappeared may not be known to others, but she knew it very well.
Know how to be self-possessed, understand the bottom line, and not be foolish or arrogant or greedy. These are the basic qualities of a wizard.
But why do wizards still have a bloody and cruel impression to the outside world? It’s just that most wizards have a relatively low bottom line.
"If it's true as you said, then Sanders has taken on a good disciple." Baroque said noncommittally, then turned around and waved goodbye with his back to Melanza: "Let's go, the game is over. I guess
This kid is going to the lottery area soon. Speaking of which, the 'Parasite Girl' hasn't lost a battle for a long time. Maybe we should let her go and meet this kid, so that she won't stay on the thirteenth floor and bother me."
"Sir Baroque, operating behind the scenes is very unfair to the players." Melanza frowned.
"Alright, alright. You don't want to see this kid just have a smooth journey to the top, right? Only by training with various opponents can you grow faster." Baroque had already walked away, but his voice was still clear.
Whispered in the ear: "Even if Sanders knew about it, he wouldn't blame me. Instead, he should thank me."
Melanza shook her head and said no more. She turned her head to look at Angel, who was slowly coming off the ring, with a slightly pensive look on her face.
…
Until Angel left, the audience was still discussing what happened under the dust.
Even Dupont, who was supporting Selina, took the opportunity to ask this question.
Selena was silent for a moment, seeming to remember.
She deliberately chose to appear diagonally behind Milk Baron to catch him unawares. As a member of a family of killers, Selina knew very well how to choose the enemy's visual blind spots. Just when she thought she could kill with one strike, she suddenly
Attacked by a black shadow.
To be honest, she didn't even know what was attacking her at the moment, because the attack was so fast and fierce, and the speed and reflexes she was proud of were not worth mentioning in front of the opponent.
Looking back now, she had a vague guess.
Selina motioned to Dupont to pull down her tattered coat.
When the coat was slung over her shoulders, Selina carefully observed the wounds on her shoulder blades, and unexpectedly found several sharp claw marks that penetrated the bone.
"This is..." Dupont also saw it, and surprise flashed in his eyes: "Is it that bird?"
"Yeah." Selena nodded.
"Before the game, I clearly sensed that the bird was just a low-level monster...it was a little inappropriate to even call it a monster. I didn't expect it to be such a powerful bird," Dupont said.
Selina didn't reply. After all, Dupont was just a bystander, so he didn't know the real horror of the bird.
"It's strange to say that until now, I don't know which side of the three major structures Milk Baron belongs to. From the information I searched, he almost never used any specific spells, and his victory relied entirely on alchemical weapons. Previous
Most of the players who lost to him on several levels privately called him the 'Rogue Baron'." Dupont thought: "Could it be that he is from the summoning system?"
Angel returned to the backstage and prepared to go to the lottery area.
We were surrounded halfway down the road. There were so many people, that was the current situation.
Players who were familiar with him, or players with ulterior motives, all surrounded Angel and asked various questions they were concerned about: How did he win, and who was the maker of the alchemy weapon?
Fortunately, although they surrounded him, they did not block the way. Angel was still able to move forward smoothly.
When he arrived at the draw area, the old man with pigtails, Baroque, smiled at the contestants surrounding Angel: "Are you going to compete? That's great. I'm just worried that there are not many people in the competition pool."
As soon as this question came out, everyone left in a hurry.
As soon as Angel stood in front of the lottery area, Baroque said to him with a smile: "Are you here to draw lots?"
"kindness."
"Winning two games in a row today proves your strength. You can draw more lots if you want, but..."
Baroque said to Angel with a hint of regret: "Because it's too late today, there are only 4 players left in the pool, and two of them are on the ranking list. Are you sure you want to choose?"
4 players? So few? Angel frowned, even if he ranked them all, the points would be too few.
"Then I won't draw lots. I will compete with all four players." Angele paused and then said: "Also, I want to enter the competition pool."
The so-called pool is actually the lots in the lottery box.
There is no compulsory competition in the Sky Tower, but if you want to keep your level up, you must compete once a month. Unless you climb to the top of the Sky Tower, you will not lose your level due to not competing for a long time.
These players who compete regularly every month are the basis of the competition pool. Most of them enter the competition pool on the same day, wait in the player area, and come back next month after the competition.
Angel had never thought about entering the pool before, because most of the matches in the pool were not independent and all depended on the opponent's time. He used to play one game and then the next, and there was no need to enter the pool at all.
But when you reach the third level of death, there is no harm in entering the competition pool.
Because even if someone else is drawn to compete with you, it will only start the next day, so Angel chooses to enter the competition pool.
"It's no problem to enter the competition pool." Barok narrowed his eyes and said, "At eight o'clock in the evening, the bulletin board will refresh the schedule for the next day. Then you will see which players you have been drawn."
After entering the competition pool, it is naturally impossible for someone to draw him immediately. His match tomorrow has been confirmed, and only the information of the four players in the current competition pool is confirmed.
Of the four players, three of them have been collected by David. There is also a strange player, but like Angel, he has just been promoted to the thirteenth level. It is normal that David did not record it.
Among these four contestants, the name that Angel noticed first was: Fox Shepherd.
If he remembered correctly, this person seemed to be the player who loved to be cool?
…
Athletes in the third level of death are the focus of the Sky Tower. Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of the players, the ropeways in the third level of death are very numerous and wide, and you can get off the ropeway midway, effectively avoiding being tracked.
Angel left in the cable car, so there was no tail behind him.
After he left, he went to the mortal market in the underground market and hired a few mortals to help record the schedule of the Sky Tower at night before returning to the Apprentice Town.
