  “What happened?”

  It had only been a split second just now, and no one had been able to see clearly what had happened. They had only seen a white light appear in front of Warhead Iron to block the Lightning Spear.

  The white light disappeared as if nothing had happened.

  Clutch King furrowed his brows tightly. The situation just now had been too strange.

  What exactly was that white light? Could it have been a player that blocked that attack?

  Clutch King looked over at Kesha City and found that there was indeed one person missing from the original team.

  Clutch King took out his two blades and instantly became cautious. He looked around, but could not see a single person.

  Could it be that he had the same ability as Dream Seeker?

  Clutch King looked at the ground, but could not find any shadows.

  He was very anxious now. He had just escaped from a near-death situation, and now that he was being targeted by an invisible enemy, he did not know what to do, he did not have much MP left because he had used it on his Shadow Clone skill.

  Although Shadow Clone was easy to use, the constant consumption of MP was very troublesome, so every time Clutch King chose to end the battle as quickly as possible. However, he had consumed too much MP this time, and the current situation was very disadvantageous for him.

  Li Yi, who was standing to the side, had long since held the magic sword in his hand, but he did not make a move. He was on guard against the three people on the other side who had not made a move yet. If he did not know their background and rashly made a move… the other three would also make a move together.

  When the time came, they might be held back and would not have an advantage over his side, which had Snow Chaser and Winnie.

  The two of them were not good at close combat. If the other side was good at close combat, Li Yi would not be able to move quickly enough to save Clutch King while protecting the two of them at the same time.

  So he could not act rashly now, and could only wait it out.

  “Are you looking for me?”

  A soft voice suddenly rang out in Clutch King’s ear. It was bone-chilling, and even colder than that were the two blades on Clutch King’s neck.

  “Warhead Iron, come back!”

  The black masked player called Warhead Iron back, and the numbness on his body made him walk slowly back to his teammate.

  The double blades on Clutch King’s neck withdrew, and the masked man with the double blades in his hand turned into a white light and disappeared from Clutch King’s side. Then, the masked man with the double blades walked out of the white light next to Kesha City’s squad.

  “W-what?”

  Suddenly, a flock of birds flew out of the jungle, and then there was the sound of an explosion.

  A thick smoke mixed with the smell of gunpowder floated out of the forest, and a man wearing a mask walked out.

  The man slowly walked out with a dagger in his hand.

  The figure Dream Seeker also appeared behind Li Yi.

  “How did it go?”

  “I was discovered by that person. He was setting up a trap at that time, and I conveniently destroyed one.”

  “Well done.”

  The black masked player folded their arms.

  At this time, Clutch King also retreated to Li Yi’s side.

  Dream Seeker glanced at Clutch King and asked with concern, “How was it? You didn’t die, did you?”

  “How could I die so easily? I’m amazing and I’ve come out unscathed.”

  How could Dream Seeker still be willing to quibble with him?

  The black masked player on the other side shouted at Li Yi.

  “Are you still going to fight?”

  “Either way I’m fine with anything.”

  “Then let’s continue.”

  The masked player walked out and twirled the two blades in his hands. These blades were different from ordinary double blades. They were shaped like crescent moons and looked like sickles. The man held them in his hands like the arms of a praying mantis.

  Li Yi glanced at Dream Seeker. “You okay to go?”

  “No problem.”

  A long blade appeared in Dream Seeker’s hands. It was his own. Dream Seeker walked unhurriedly towards the double bladed masked player.

  “Do you want to tell me your name?”

  “Seems fair.”

  “Dream Seeker.”

  “Illusive Mystery.”

  “Hah, what a childish name to have.”

  Clutch King ridiculed him on the side. Even Li Yi found him a little too talkative.

  Snow Chaser went up to him and asked, “Do you understand any of Illusive Mystery’s techniques?”

  Li Yi shook his head. Divine Revelation was so huge that there were countless skills in it, and not everyone knew all of the skills.

  “Maybe Dream Seeker will know.”

  Dream Seeker knew. He had used this skill before, and it could be considered a displacement skill. One could move within a range of 20 by 20. Originally, he wanted to learn this skill as well, however, this would clash with his Chameleon skill, so he decided to resell it.

  “Spatial Gate.”

  When Illusive Mystery heard Dream Seeker call out the skill, his mask trembled slightly, as though he was a little surprised.

  “I didn’t expect you to actually know. I spent a lot of money to buy this skill from your Emperor City.”

  “Oh, that must be fate then.”

  “What do you mean?”

  “I once sold this skill to someone else.”

  “Hehe, then it’s all thanks to you. However, other than me, it’s a waste for others to take on this skill.”

  “I’d like to know why, if I may.”

  “You’ll know in a while.”

  “Hey! Are you guys still going to fight or not?”

  Clutch King could not wait any longer.

  Dream Seeker turned around and glared at Clutch King as he thought to himself, ‘This hothead, I’m trying to get some information here, read the room?’

  Dream Seeker sighed and shook his head, then took a step back. “Let’s begin.” Then, he disappeared.

  “Oh! This is interesting.”

  Illusive Mystery conjured up a white light and walked in. Then, he walked out from a white light in an empty space not far away.

  “This place is spacious enough. You can start now.”

  Illusive Mystery heard the sound of something buzzing and turned around. His double blades had already planned to cut him off like a leek. However, when he turned around, he only saw a bomb approaching him.

  “-2140!”

  “Holy heck, I didn’t expect you to be so sinister.”

  Illusive Mystery came out from another white light. His body was filled with the thick smell of gunpowder. It seemed that he had dodged the attack at the last moment.

  “-2100!”

  “What!” ……

  However, the moment he came out, another bomb floated in the air in front of him. He quickly jumped back into the white light.

  The next scene was very strange, even more strange than the previous things that have happened. No matter where Illusive Mystery came from, a bomb floated in the air in front of him.

  Even if he had checked in advance that there was no bomb in the location he was going to go to, when he got there, there would be a bomb there.

  This bomb moved like magic, as long as he appeared, the bomb would appear.

  It floated in front of him with great precision.

  All of this was too coincidental. The entire process revealed a strange feeling that made one’s back turn cold.

  “B*stard! Where the h*ll are you!”

  Illusive Mystery began to panic. He even began to shuttle endlessly in the white light. He did not dare to stop for even a moment. As long as the white light appeared, the bomb would appear first. It was as if these bombs had already been located.

  Illusive Mystery began to think. Even if the other party was invisible, they would not be able to keep up with the speed of the white light displacing him in different areas.

  If that was true, how could he make the bombs appear in front of the white light at the first possible moment?

  Illusive Mystery looked around for an angle, but he could not find a suitable location until he found a better place.

  “This time, the cat-and-mouse game is about to change people.”

  A white light appeared in the air. At some point, a balloon appeared in the air. Illusive Mystery slashed at the balloon .

  A long blade appeared out of thin air and blocked Illusive Mystery’s double blades. Dream Seeker appeared and put the balloon away.

  This was the floating balloon that he had spent a lot of effort to find.

  “Do you think that a single blade of yours can block my double blades?”

  Illusive Mystery spun around in the air. The attack that was originally blocked by Dream Seeker long blade was instantly split into two, becoming a two-way attack.

  “-1,210!”

  Even if Dream Seeker used his full strength, he could only block one side of the attack. Therein, the other curved blade pierced into Dream Seeker’s right arm.

  As fresh blood flowed out from Dream Seeker’s arm, his body fell onto the ground like a stone that had been thrown.

  “-2,410!”

  “Uh……”

  Blood flowed out from the corner of Dream Seeker’s mouth, but his chest had long been dyed red by the blood that he had spat out. A white light appeared beside his feet. Illusive Mystery walked out from it and leisurely licked the blood that was left on the tip of the blade.

  “Now… Let’s see where else you can hide.”

  “Fool.”

  “What!”

  Along his feet were riddled with bombs as he tried to step away.

  “Boom!”

  “-2,100!”

  Along with the explosion, the place where Dream Chaser and Illusive Mystery were at was covered by thick black smoke. Not too far away, Illusive Mystery walked out from a ray of white light.

  The black smoke dispersed, and Dream Chaser disappeared again.

  “Don’t think I can’t find you if you hide!”

  Illusive Mystery threw his double blades into the white light at the side, and then white light appeared everywhere, one after another. The double blades that were thrown shuttled back and forth in the white light, created arcs as it went.

  This technique was amazing.

  The double blades connected seamlessly through the white light, turning the entire open space into their own hunting ground. Very quickly, the two blades cut a bloody mark on the open space.

  “-1,010!”

  “I’ve found you.”

  Illusive Mystery caught the two blades from the white light. White light flashed again and appeared in the open space. Dream Seeker appeared, holding a long knife to block the oncoming attack.

  However, now, Dream Seeker’s other arm has also been cut. Both of his hands were now powerless, and he had no time to deal with the oncoming opponent. The long blade in his hand was sent flying by Illusive Mystery.

  Illusive Mystery spun in the air again, and his figure seemed to be dancing. Unfortunately, the next dance was about to take away his life. He gritted his teeth and another long blade appeared in his hand to block the attack.

  “Yo, you really have a lot of magical equipment.”

  He quickly took the opportunity to drink a mouthful of Health Potion.

  “You are quite strong.”

  After throwing away the Health Potion, Dream Seeker looked at the long saber in his hand.

  “I never expected to use such a precious weapon… Up until now.”

  Li Yi smiled. “Dream Seeker has won.”

  That’s right, the long saber in Dream Seeker’s hand was the perfect grade weapon that Li Yi had specially made for him.

  In between fights, Dream Seeker no longer retreated. Instead, he took large strides forward and rushed towards Illusive Mystery.

  “A frontal attack? Then we’ll do as you wish.”

  “Illusive Mystery is getting carried away again. He hasn’t been like this for some time. The last time was when he fought with the captain.”

  The squad from Kesha City started discussing and looked at the black masked player. Under the mask, a certain someone revealed a smile that he had not experienced for a long time.

  Illusive Mystery was a person who lacked a sense of security, but he also yearned for those warriors who fought in duels.

  He had always used strange methods to execute players, and after a long time, his methods became chillingly cold.

  He felt that killing players was now a common occurrence.

  Thus, he became the famous night killer in Kesha City. It was not until he met his captain that his interest in dueling was ignited once again.

  This was the second time he’s felt such a rush.

  Dream Seeker held a long saber and stabbed forward. However, Illusive Mystery once again displayed his dance-like posture.

  The long saber quickly cut through and went straight for Illusive Mystery’s head.

  How could Illusive Mystery let him succeed so easily? Therefore, he lowered his head and crouched down as he cleverly dodged the attack.

  Then, he turned around and slashed mightily with the blade, once again creating sparks from the impact.

  At this moment, Dream Seeker looked at Illusive Mystery with a firm gaze and said coldly, “It’s over.”

  The long saber was thrown out by Dream Seeker with a great swing.

  “Are you stupid? You really don’t want that?”

  A white light appeared behind Illusive Mystery. After the white light brightened, another white light appeared behind Dream Seeker. Illusive Mystery had been waiting for the fallen saber from Dream Seeker.

  “I said it’s over.”

  Dream Seeker held a bomb in his hand and pushed it into Illusive Mystery’s chest.

  “Are you going to die together with me?!”

  Illusive Mystery’s double blades pierced into Dream Seeker’s waist. He could have killed Dream Seeker in an instant, but at that moment, Dream Seeker disappeared from his sight. What awaited him was a bomb in his chest.

  “-2,140! Vital strike!”

  “-2,133! Vital strike!”

  “You b*stard!”

  “-5,480! Critical hit!”

  “Illusive Mystery!”

  [System notification: Player Illusive Mystery has exited the quest.]

  “D*mn it!”

  Looking at the squad in front of him, Illusive Mystery unwillingly beat the ground in defeat.

  Dream Seeker trembled slightly as he picked up the long saber that had dropped earlier.

  Dream Seeker returned to the squad with two long sabers in his hands.

  “Captain, what exactly happened just now?”

  In front of his squadmates, he replied, “Spatial Art? No, this must be the ability of that daber.”

  [Weapon: Traceless]

  [Rarity: Perfect]

  [Physical Attack: 58]

  [Attribute Enhancement: Stamina +10]

  [Perfect Skill: Spatial Coordinates is an active skill. Allows the weapon to teleport regardless of distance. Consumes 100 MP per use. Cooldown time is 60 seconds]

  [Equipment Conditions: None]

  This was the elusive weapon that Li Yi had created for Dream Seeker. It could teleport like how lightning strikes on after another. However, the cooldown took too long, and it consumed a lot of MP, during a battle, one would only have one chance to use it.

  However, one chance was all Dream Seeker needed.

  “Are you alright?” Snow Chaser began to cast healing spells onto Dream Seeker.

  “The opponent wasn’t weak, but I won.” When Dream Seeker said this, he looked at Li Yi as if he was trying to prove his worth to Li Yi.

  “Yes, you deserved the win in this battle.”

  Li Yi was not stingy when it came to praising Dream Seeker. Although Dream Seeker appeared to be fine on the surface, there was a hint of joy on his face when he lowered his head.

  At this moment, Li Yi looked at the time. There was only an hour left before the battle.

  If they continued to waste time like this, they would not get to go in.

  They had to think of a way to complete the mission quickly.

  Li Yi held the magic weapon in his hand and pointed at the black masked player of the opposing team.

  “I’ll fight with you. How about we decide the winner in one round?”

  The masked player walked out of the team and took off the mask.

  The face under the mask surprised Li Yi.

  The person under the mask was a girl.

  Her face was cold and her eyes were deep, as if she had seen through the world.

  Under the cold surface, he saw a face that Li Yi had seen before.

  The face that had fought with him before.

  Now… that very face appeared in front of him.

  The other players that wore their masks had taken the initiative to take them out as well.

  They were players he knew.

  These were the players that he had fought with.
