No, he has to go back to his teacher.
The teacher will definitely find a way to alleviate the effects of the medication in his body, and the teacher will definitely find out who that damned guy is.
The arena, in the end, is the teacher's arena.
He will never stand idly by.
With that thought in mind, he ran toward the arena gate.
Just then, a figure emerged from the stairs beside the arena gate, humming a tune. Upon seeing Kelda, Luo Xiu paused, then spoke:
"You haven't left yet?"
As Kelda saw Luo Xiu appear before her, the remaining effects of the drug kicked in, and anger surged through her head. She roared and charged towards Luo Xiu.
Luo Xiu smiled slightly.
It was impossible that he had met Kelda by chance; he had been secretly observing Kelda's every move.
When Kelda's figure began to shrink and her emotions shifted to panic and tension instead of pure anger, he immediately realized that the effects of the drug were wearing off.
Then he walked out.
He had just made a fortune in the dungeon where the demon bats were imprisoned.
He hadn't expected the arena to be so powerful, with a full 11 second-tier magic bats and 53 first-tier magic bats.
With a total of 161 points to add, it's an absolute steal!
Seeing that he had regained 235 points to add, he decided to conduct an experiment.
So he took out 100 points and added them to his physique and strength, 50 points to each, and 10 points to each of the remaining three.
Balanced development has been proven to be the best option, but with the monstrous Kelda around, he wanted to test whether what Old White had said before was true.
That means the strength of the lower fourth tier wouldn't be too different.
He planned to use his strength and constitution, which had now reached 370 points, to see if he could fight against Kelda now, given that his attributes exceeded the fourth-tier baseline by a full 70 points.
Faced with Kelda's terrifying lunge, Luo Xiu stepped back with his right leg, gathered his strength, and then...
A punch was thrown!
boom! ! !
It was as if ripples were emanating from between their fists, carving a deep trench in the arena floor.
Next second,
With an incredulous look in his eyes, Kelda was blasted into the air!
Luo Xiu's eyes flickered, and he leaped high into the air, landing above Kelda. Then, he clasped his hands together in a fist!
It crashed down hard!!
"puff!!!"
Kelda was struck, blood splattered, and her heavy body fell to the ground like a meteor.
It crashed to the ground with a loud bang.
It created an enormous crater in the ground.
Luo Xiu's eyes flickered slightly.
Old White is right.
In other words, he should be able to deal with ordinary lower-level fourth-tier opponents without any problems.
Chapter 109 The Change of Power in Kanriel (Includes main plot and minor climax)
"Cough...cough..."
Within the deep crater in the ground, Kelda's body had returned to its original form.
At this moment, he looked extremely miserable. His bright red clothes had turned into strips of cloth, and large patches of dark red blood covered his entire body.
That once wicked and unruly face was now covered in bruises, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, and with each light cough, another mouthful of blood gushed out.
He looked at Luo Xiu standing there, and the gaze behind the raccoon mask stung him deeply, because that gaze wasn't looking at him at all.
It seems that defeating him was just a matter of course.
"A sneak attack... I refuse to accept this..."
Kelda managed to speak with great difficulty.
He had encountered many opponents who said similar things to him, accusing him of using alchemical potions. At the time, he dismissed them with disdain. Losing was losing, and there was no point in talking to losers.
But when he found himself in this situation, he suddenly understood the inner thoughts of those defeated opponents.
Because he can't do anything right now, saying these words is the only way he can express his pent-up frustration.
Upon hearing this, Luo Xiu glanced at him, and then...
He raised his hand and slapped her!
"puff!"
Kelda coughed up a mouthful of blood from the slap and stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
"Keep your voice down, Lord Kelda. It is impolite to speak while others are thinking."
Luo Xiu spoke softly.
What she said almost made Kelda faint with anger.
Luo Xiu wasn't lying; he was indeed thinking.
Before coming, my teacher said that I could cause as much trouble as I wanted in the arena, and the bigger the better.
Although Tata didn't say it explicitly, he felt that Tata hoped he would make some noise.
Almost everyone in the arena is dead now. Although he didn't kill any of them, the commotion has been quite significant.
But Luo Xiu always felt that something was missing.
He looked at Kelda on the ground, and the look in his eyes beneath the mask gave Kelda an ominous feeling.
Kelda was all too familiar with that look; he often had that look in his eyes when he killed people.
"You...you want to kill me?"
Kelda spoke with difficulty, his lips turning even redder with each word.
He suddenly laughed.
A bloodied mouth turned up in a smile:
"You...can't kill me. Even if you...win against me, you still can't kill me."
He didn't know where the strength came from, but he managed to sit up slowly by supporting himself with one hand on the ground.
He pointed breathlessly to the corpses strewn across the arena and said with a laugh:
"See these dead guys? All of them combined didn't kill as many people as I have, but they're dead, and I will live."
"Even if you dislike me, even if you want to kill me, you can't."
"Because my teacher is Shek, Earl Shek! The true master of this city, and the master behind this arena! No one can kill me!"
"If you don't believe me, you can try it."
Luo Xiu fell silent in response to Kelda's words.
When Kelda saw this, his smile became even more maniacal.
Tonight, he finally got his revenge for the first time.
He felt an immense sense of joy and burst into laughter.
"That's the difference between insects and humans. Insects can be crushed at will, even if they make the slightest mistake. But I can do whatever I want without any consequences, because I'm a human!"
"After tonight, when the sun rises tomorrow, the arena will still be open as usual, the gamblers will still flock there, and I will still be me!"
His maniacal laughter echoed in the center of the arena, lasting for a long time.
After laughing, he stood up and waved to Luo Xiu:
"Sir, you are welcome to come to the arena to watch the duel tomorrow. I will not charge you for admission."
After saying that, he prepared to turn and leave. The side effects of the drug were about to appear, and he had to get back to find his teacher before they took hold.
But the sudden laughter made him stop in his tracks.
That wasn't his laughter, but a forced laugh, strained and seemingly full of sarcasm.
He glanced at Luo Xiu, whose lips were curved in a smile, his eyes narrowed, and he stopped in his tracks.
The next second, Luo Xiu rushed over, his gaze fixed on him.
Like a ghost, Luo Xiu flashed directly in front of him, grabbed his neck, and lifted him high in the air.
Kelda felt like she couldn't breathe, her face turned red, and it felt like something was blocking her chest.
He could feel Luo Xiu's hand tightening its grip; he really wanted to strangle him!
As Luo Xiu withdrew the power in his hand, a slight cracking sound was heard from Kelda's neck.
Then Luo Xiu clenched his fist tightly!
bass! ! !
At that very moment, a blood-red light shone from Kelda's body and rapidly expanded.
This force carried immense pressure, forcing Luo Xiu to release his grip and retreat repeatedly.
A dazzling crimson light filled the entire arena, and a tall, majestic figure emerged from within that red light.
It was a figure resembling a projection, with a mustache, slicked-back hair, wearing an impeccably tailored uniform, and a fringed vest draped over his shoulders, sitting on a sofa.
Luo Xiu looked up at the familiar figure. He had seen him before among the stone statues in the outer city of Kanriel: Earl Shek.
Kelda, who had been thrown to the ground from Luo Xiu's grasp, was overjoyed to see the figure that had appeared:
"teacher!"
