Chapter 272: Frightening Mausoleum
“Ah!”
The shriek was accompanied by the sound of barfing, shortly after which everyone panicked and broke into chaos.
The body of a male student was smashed backward like a cannonball, and he did not make it back in one piece. Half of his arm had been severed!
Blood dripped all over the dark stone-paved ground, and the male student wailed miserably, adding a touch of horror to the gloomy Ancient Imperial Mausoleum.
“Ahhhhh!” The male student’s face was flushed, and he was holding onto his severed arm with one hand while gasping continuously in pain. He spluttered, “Is there... any, any doctor, doc... tor! Help, help me.”
A girl couldn’t help but take action in the end.
Even though they were competitors, the boy looked too miserable. After all, that girl was rather kindhearted. Hence, she decided to give him a hand.
When the girl was treating the wounded contestant, the sounds of shrieks, accompanied by the output of fire-series Star Techniques, were heard. Everyone managed to see the figures battling in the distance vaguely.
Team battle!?!
A Rules Awakened, a melee fighter, and a Medical Awakened?
Among them, the Rules Awakened and the melee fighter were clearly trying their best to resist the enemy’s attacks. In other words, the young man who had his arm severed was a Shield Warrior?
The three Awakened students were faced with a bombardment of arrows that were clearly not ordinary. They seem to be Ice Arrows transformed from Star Power?
The three of them were injured, but their speed was declining linearly and rapidly! Their lives were indeed at stake.
The more frightening thing was that the Ancient Warrior Warhammer that was in contact with the melee fighter was already far quicker and agile than him!
How are we supposed to go on?
“Call for aid! Hurry and call for help!”
“Retreat! Retreat! Don’t fight with them anymore, don’t... Damn it!”
The pupils of the Medical Awakened at the back of the team constricted a little, and he saw an Ancient Warrior Tomahawk bending over and picking up the severed, bloodstained arm of his teammate!
The Ancient Warriors were all tall, powerful, and strong. Regardless of gender, they were all between 1.85 meters and 1.88 meters tall. The males were mostly warriors, while the females were mostly archers.
The Ancient Warrior wielding the Tomahawk was a male with a pale face and glassy and murky eyes. Under the bright light of the flashlight, he looked just like a zombie.
He bent over and picked up the severed arm before biting it.
So crunchy and crispy. Tastes like human flesh!
What kind of teeth did it have?
Why could the sounds of bones cracking be heard?
While chewing, the Ancient Warrior chuckled and waved the food in his hand, seemingly showing off his battle spoils.
Shall we eat some arms?
The kind that will burst?
The kind that will spurt blood that will be splattered all over your face, okay?
Whoosh!
Amidst the terrifying scene, a black arrow transformed from Star Power darted out precisely and quickly, piercing through the Rules Awakened’s throat!
Yes, it pierced through the Rules Awakened’s throat!
While fighting, the Rules Awakened retreated. Yet, it was continuously darting out.
The black arrow pierced through his throat and exploded...
At this moment, the Medical Awakened’s and Melee fighter’s hearts skipped a beat!
Ouch!
It hurts so much!
It was not physical pain but excruciating emotional pain.
It was so painful that it made others want to rub their hearts, even though everyone knew that it was not their beating hearts that hurt.
The heart and soul of the Rules Awakened were also trembling. However, he couldn’t be bothered anymore. He placed both hands on his neck with disbelief written all over his face.
Is this the so-called “having a strong heart and a life that’s as fragile as paper”?
The competition has only begun for five minutes, and yet, there are already casualties?
The Rules Awakened was bleeding from his mouth and neck. His eyes widened and filled with despair and indignation. Soon, he lost all signs of life.
Everyone realized that it was not an insignificant provincial league, but the National High School League!
They were in the Ancient Imperial Mausoleum!
People might die here!
The four participating teams at the back could no longer bear with it and quickly gave them some help.
It was originally a competition between teams, but just a few minutes after the competition began, the students realized that it would be impossible to defeat the well-trained killers sent by the organizers!
The three Medical Awakened hurriedly took action and cast various Medical Star Techniques on the Rules Awakened, who had had his throat pierced.
“Go, go!” The two Rules Awakened hurriedly joined forces and used wind-series Star Techniques at them.
At the same time, the guardians rushed over and left with the shocked contestants.
The remaining two teams also hurriedly evacuated. Jiang Xiao thought, You still want to hunt down the Ancient Warriors? You still want some Star Beads!?!
You guys probably have doubts about your own abilities, don’t you?
Flee and hide in a safe place.
Otherwise, ask for aid while it’s still early and quickly leave this hell hole.
Jiang Xiao and the rest kept themselves pressed against the wall while staring at the chaotic battlefield. Because it was too dim and they were too far away, they couldn’t see too well. However, they heard the miserable cry.
“No! Be careful!” Li Weiyi suddenly exclaimed. He had the Star Technique Perception, and he had clearly sensed that something was wrong. Standing in front of everyone, he immediately activated his Black Shield.
Da!
With a loud, crisp sound, a black arrow was stopped by the dark shield.
The force was absolutely shocking. While carrying the shield, Li Weiyi slid backward by half a meter.
The pitch-black bow and arrow transformed from Star Power fell to the ground. However, it did not disperse properly and instead exploded.
To be more specific, the black bow and arrow turned into a black halo that extended outwards.
The team of four was completely affected by the dark halo, and horror seemed to fill the air.
Li Weiyi’s legs trembled, and he gritted his teeth while breaking out in cold sweat.
Xia Yan held onto her giant sword, making others feel afraid that she might crush the handle because of excessive force. She even squatted down and covered her chest with one hand, gasping for breath.
Han Jiangxue’s expression was terrible, and she could feel her soul trembling. The pain was excruciating, but it could disrupt her rationality and affect her behavior.
Ring-ring-ring...
A bouncing ray of medical light connected itself to Han Jiangxue’s body and leaped towards Li Weiyi before refracting back to Xia Yan’s head. It then continued to pulsate on Jiang Xiao’s body.
No one from the team of four was injured, but Jiang Xiao nonetheless threw out a shot of Bell.
Why?
Gold Quality Bell soothed the senses!
Even if the sound was not as loud as the morning bell, it was absolutely deafening!
The team of four that had had their senses disturbed, quickly resumed to normal and stared at the stunned guardians in the monitoring room.
What happened?
Is that Bell? The Medical Star Technique from Beijiang Province? Why does it have such effects?
Who is this guy?
The almighty Goddess Xue’s teammate from Jiangbin High School, the Medical Awakened Jiang Xiaopi?
At the mention of Jiangbin High School, the first person that came to everyone’s mind was naturally Han Jiangxue. Jiang Xiaopi, with nine star slots, had a reputation that was neither good nor bad. However, it seemed now that he was really something?
Why did the Guardians pay so much attention to this team?
Because the four teams in front of them were already “crushed” by the Ancient Warriors!
At the seventh minute after the competition began, a team had been attacked and the other team got a massive shock. At this moment, they were resting at the supply point, while the other two teams fled.
The runner of the Ancient Warriors was still charging forward, and no one could stop it from moving towards the team from Beijiang Province.
The guardians were already ready to give them aid.
However, they did not expect to see such an incredible scene.
“Gold Quality Ancient Archer General. It must have been a Memorial Arrow just now.” Jiang Xiao hurriedly exclaimed, “Let’s retreat!”
Jiang Xiao would rather face the Ancient Warriors than the Ancient Archer General because its remote output was way too explosive. If it were a melee fighter, Jiang Xiao could at least see him and carry out some control.
The Ancient Archer General would carry out sneak attacks. If he were to bring any archers and launch poisonous arrows, no one would be able to stand it at all.
There was a huge difference between the Ancient Warriors and the Savages in the Arsenal. Although they were both of Silver Quality, the Star Techniques of the Ancient Archer were clearly more practical. The most important thing was that they were a combat team.
The Ancient Warriors had a leader, and the combat power they exhibited was not on the same level as the Savages at all.
The Savages were at most skirmishers.
The team of Ancient Warriors could be called an army!
“Retreat.” Han Jiangxue walked towards Li Weiyi and said, “Use your Perception. If you discover any arrows coming your way, we’ll use Sky Smasher to store them. Regardless of what arrows they may be, they will not affect us.”
Li Weiyi nodded in agreement. It was the plan they had decided on before entering. The incident just now was way too sudden. Hence, they did not have the time to implement their plan.
Everyone stayed in their teams and quickly retreated. Right behind them, a team pressed themselves against the wall, seemingly having yet to decide the direction to advance in.
“Did you guys hear the shriek just now? The team in front of us is retreating to our side, let’s leave as soon as possible!” a contestant suggested.
All of a sudden, the team members echoed, “Let’s find a place to hide and watch the situation. Let’s go... let’s go. Xiaoqi? We should go now!”
“Xiaoqi? Xiaoqi? Why are you in a daze and spacing out? Hurry up,” a girl said while grabbing Xiaoqi’s arm and retreating.
Xiaoqi looked at the familiar figure from a distance and noticed the tall and slender figures of both girls.
Xiaoqi licked her dry lips as if she was determined to do something. Staring at the team from Jiangbin High School approaching, she smiled peculiarly.
