Chapter 2728 The Inevitable Ending
The Sunlight Temple will resist the external evil, but it will not stop Dox from leaving.
When Dox, who was no longer affected by the curse and had recovered to his peak strength, and even his inspirational talent had reached the peak, stepped out of the shelter of the temple again, although the feeling of comfort all over his body disappeared, his self-confidence reached its peak.
At this time, Dox even felt that he could challenge the Gray Merchant.
In fact, it is indeed possible to just "challenge" the Gray Merchant; but the final result is whether he wins or loses, that is another matter. However, Dox's inspirational talent has been strengthened in all aspects. If he really fights with the Gray Merchant, he still has a slight chance to win. Even if he loses, he will definitely hold on for much longer than before.
After all, the Gray Merchant's bloodline naturally restrains Dox. One is a land dragon and the other is a sandworm. This degree of suppression can even make Dox less than half of his strength after activating his bloodline.
But the evil woman is different. Without bloodline suppression and at the peak of his state, Dox is not afraid at all.
Wrapped in countless sword stabs, Dox rushed straight towards the evil woman.
…
“He came out of that cover, should the evil woman have a chance to win?” On the other side, Pink Mo saw Dox leave the Sunlight Temple, and her eyes lit up immediately.
In her mind, it was the appearance of the light cover that made the battle change, otherwise the evil woman would have won long ago. Now that Dox has left the light cover, it is equivalent to cutting off his own retreat. The evil woman should be able to win... right?
Gray Merchant pondered for a moment, and still shook his head: "My conclusion is the same as before, the evil woman has already lost. Now it depends on..."
Fen Mo: "What to depend on?"
Gray Merchant sighed softly: "It depends on whether Dox wants to win, or... fight to the death."
Gray Merchant sighed, obviously with worry. Now the evil woman has full blood, and her reason is almost occupied by blood instinct, and she can't even admit defeat.
This is also the shortcoming of the transformation lineage. The transformation lineage rarely has full blood, because the mixed blood will cause a certain degree of confusion in thinking. Even if there are improvements in magic, the rationality is not as flexible as usual.
Only after reaching the legendary level can the new blood fusion technique be used to eliminate this shortcoming.
But how difficult is it to become a legend?
There is not even a single legendary in the Southern Region at present. Therefore, almost everyone in the transformation system will achieve the "reduced intelligence" achievement in full-strength fighting. Therefore, the wizards of the blood source lineage are very disdainful of the same-side wizards who become stupid in a battle. In addition, the different concepts make the blood source wizards look down on the transformation wizards.
And pure-blooded wizards are very similar to blood source wizards. Even if the bloodline is fully opened, there will be no behavior of reducing intelligence.
Based on this point, Gray Merchant does not think that the evil woman can defeat Dox.
The evil woman has completely given herself to instinct at this time. This kind of combat power that gives rationality to combat instinct is indeed very strong. But if there is no rationality to control, everything is just for winning, and the combat instinct will actively touch all the bottom lines of the fighter.
The evil woman may not even be defeated by Dox, but dragged to death by the combat instinct. Even if she wins, the evil woman may lose further possibilities because her potential is consumed too much.
Fen Mo: "Master Gray Merchant, is there any difference between the two?"
Gray Merchant: "Of course there is, and the difference is huge. If Dox just wants to win, he can use the rules of the arena to beat the evil woman out of the circle. Even if she is surrounded by void monsters outside, we still have the possibility of saving her."
"But if Dox decides to fight to the death, the evil woman will not admit defeat, and the final result is likely to be... Dox wins miserably and the evil woman dies."
To kill a wizard with full blood, even Dox, you have to pay a great price.
At this time, the shepherd whispered: "If it were you, would you choose to win or fight to the death?"
Gray Merchant looked at the shepherd. Among all the apprentices brought by Gray Merchant, the shepherd's mind is the deepest. Although he always looks lazy, when it comes to the critical moment, his eyes will become extremely sharp, and he can even find the key point quickly at a speed no less than that of a formal wizard.
The shepherd must have a secret. Perhaps this secret is not hidden in his body, but in his heart or even in his soul.
Gray Merchant is not afraid of people with secrets. As long as the shepherd can be loyal to him, what's wrong with a little secret?
Gray Merchant: "If I were in Dox's position before, I would probably choose to just win and not fight to the death. But now, I will choose to fight to the death."
The shepherd fiddled with the green hair hanging on his eyelids and whispered: "Is it because of the light shield?"
Gray Merchant nodded: "With a shelter that can quickly recover from injuries, even if the result of the fight to the death is a tragic victory, Dox can still be treated in the shelter."
It can be said that the existence of the shelter completely changed the situation of the war.
It broke the curse of the evil woman and also backfired on the evil woman, making her unable to cast curses for a short time.
It defended against the most powerful attack of the evil woman and consumed her blood.
It provided Dox with an all-round recovery effect and became the most powerful backing.
Without it, the evil woman would have a great chance of winning, but now everything is too late.
Gray Merchant is even thinking about how to deal with Dox, who has a shelter, in the next game.
"Then we have no way to save the evil lady?" Fen Mo asked excitedly.
Gray Merchant glanced at her calmly: "Just now when Dox was cursed and pierced by the blood spear, did you see anyone on the other side move?"
Fen Mo: "But, but..."
"You are thinking, Dox has a trump card, right? This duel itself is beyond your control. In fact, what the Cangjingren wants to see is their trump card." Gray Merchant said this, and whispered softly: "The identity and background of the person on the other side are extraordinary. It is impossible for me to easily give the mysterious leather scroll to Dox."
Not to mention that it can't be done, in the case of knowing that there is still a glimmer of hope, Gray Merchant will never use the mysterious leather scroll.
"Watch it, no matter what the outcome is, this is the bitter fruit we need to swallow."
Gray Merchant also wants to save the evil woman, but the rules are there. The black-clad referee is looking down from the sky. In this case, he has no choice.
The only thing he can do is...watch it. See what choice Dox will make?
...
What choice will Dox make? In fact, he already had a plan in mind.
Countless rapiers followed Dox, and every time Dox manipulated the rapiers, he madly chopped at the barbed tentacles of the evil woman.
These tentacles were originally made of the hair of the evil woman, so they were naturally not fatal weaknesses.
The reason why he chopped these tentacles to death was because Dox found that every time he cut off a tentacle, the evil woman would scream in extreme pain.
At the same time, the evil woman would be forced to retreat several steps.
Dox didn't know why cutting off the tentacles would cause such great harm to the evil woman. Maybe it was because... women valued their hair?
Anyway, no matter what, as long as he found a way to repel the evil woman, it would be fine.
Now that the evil woman can't curse him, her body has become extremely heavy, and even her thinking has begun to become unclear, then the simplest way to win is to repel the evil woman and push her out of the arena.
That's right, Dox didn't choose to fight to the death, he chose to win at the lowest cost.
Dox also wanted to kill the evil woman completely. This woman who could transform herself into a deep-sea creature was absolutely ruthless and decisive, and from her words, it can be seen that she was also very narrow-minded. If she was not eliminated once, she would definitely become a disaster in the future.
But even so, Dox did not intend to fight the evil woman to the death this time.
He also knew that if he wanted to completely judge the evil woman on the field, he would be seriously injured. This was like a trapped beast fighting. The evil woman had a weak mind and relied on instinct to fight. The field was only so big. Dox wanted to fight and kill her, so he could only face the enemy head-on.
Facing an evil woman who had become a war machine, he could not be unscathed.
Once Dox was seriously injured, even if he was restored through the Sunlight Temple, according to Angel, the effect of the Sunlight Temple would be greatly reduced. At that time, if he wanted to "sell" the experience tickets again, they would definitely be discounted.
Therefore, even if Dox was for his own "interests" this time, he could not be injured again. As long as he won, other floods or endless troubles would be put aside.
Of course, in addition to this reason, Dox also wanted to repay. He had felt before that the evil woman's ten blood-colored light spears were not aimed at the real fatal point, which meant that the evil woman had the intention of letting him go. In this case, Dox also used this method to repay.
However, if Wai heard this reason, he would probably say: This is just Dox's self-consolation for not being able to kill the evil woman.
Based on Wai's understanding of Dox, the truth will not be too far off.
…
Every tentacle that was cut off would cause the evil woman to scream miserably.
And the pain of the evil woman would make her further crazy. Although this kind of madness deepened the toughness of the body and the strength of the power, her thinking would become simpler and stupider.
If the evil woman faced a head-on opponent, she might have beaten the opponent into a pulp with her constantly increasing ability. But Dox did not collide with the evil woman head-on at all, dodging and waiting for an opportunity.
The evil woman had a lot of hair, and the tentacles that turned into hair were flying all over the sky, so Dox didn't have to think about how to cut or which one to cut.
As long as the sword could reach, he could just cut it at will.
The evil woman continued to grow bigger and more ferocious, but he still had no way to deal with him. The tentacles were cut off one by one, and the arena was piled with withered tentacles and sticky and dark blood.
In the next few minutes, everyone only heard screams on the arena.
The level of shrillness was so terrible that even a heartless person would be moved.
Seeing this, even Wai couldn't help but say: "Dox is too inhumane. It would be enough to kill with one sword, but he still tortured his opponent like this. Was he so deeply injured by Yuna? Has he become so perverted to women?"
Wai's complaints were not concealed at all, and they were directly heard by Dox.
Now, Dox only needed to dodge and hack to hit the tentacles, so he still had the energy to fight back against Wai's complaints: "You call this a woman? Then I hope all the women you find in the future are like this!"
Dox's words had no effect on Wai, but it dealt a serious blow to the evil woman's remaining IQ.
She became even bigger and more brutal.
However, this was more beneficial to Dox. Before, the evil woman would occasionally move left and right after her tentacles were cut off, but now her IQ was completely in arrears, and every time she cut off her tentacles, she would retreat again and again.
Don’t say that Wai was tired of hearing it. In fact, Dox was also tired of hearing the constant screams of the evil woman. Fortunately, they were not far from the edge of the arena.
On the other side, Fen Mo and others actually couldn’t bear to hear the screams of the evil woman. However, they now understood that Wai did not choose to kill the evil woman, but was prepared to force her out of the arena and win through the rules of the competition.
This made them feel a little relieved even though they couldn’t bear it.
“It seems that Lord Bai Shang is right.” The shepherd returned to his lazy look at this time. He summoned a black-faced sheep from somewhere, leaned against the soft sheep body, and sat cross-legged on the ground.
How could everyone not understand what the shepherd meant? Before Bai Shang took Hei Shang away, he once said that they should try to solve the problem with the intruder through communication, because from all signs, the intruder did not seem to have any malicious intentions. He also left some messages, which might be well-intentioned.
No one replied. They knew in their hearts that what Bai Shang said might be right, but sometimes, they really couldn’t help themselves.
The shepherd smiled, not caring about the silence around him. He touched the black-faced sheep behind him, then tilted his head back, leaned on the sheep's back and closed his eyes: "I'll rest for a while, I still have to fight later."
Fen Mo looked at the shepherd who seemed to fall asleep in the blink of an eye, and whispered: "You just want to sleep."
The shepherd had no more echoes, and the black-faced sheep curled up and accompanied the shepherd to sleep quietly.
At the same time as the shepherd fell into a deep sleep, the black-robed referee in the air also announced the end of the game.
No more accidents happened, and the irrational evil woman was forced out of the arena by Dox.
As soon as the evil woman left the arena, the monsters in the void began to boil and rushed towards the evil woman.
At the same time, the figure of the gray merchant disappeared from the arena.
When he appeared again, he was already in front of the evil woman.
The energy aura created by a large number of void monsters was extremely terrifying, and even set off gusts of wind.
The hem of the gray merchant's clothes fluttered in the wind, and the mask on his face rustled in the wind.
Facing the terrifying energy storm, the gray merchant did not retreat. He half-bent his body and slowly pulled out the purple long sword covered with a large number of crystals from his waist.
With a swing of the blade, a half-moon.
This shining half-moon, with unparalleled sharp energy, swept into the energy storm.
The energy storm created by the void monster exploded violently after contacting the half-moon.
The explosion even affected the edge of the arena, causing cracks in the solid ground.
"If you damage the arena, you will be compensated according to the rules."
The voice of the wise master was swallowed by the explosion. But the gray merchant heard it, raised his head and nodded gently to the wise master, and made a lip language of "understanding".
Then, the gray merchant took advantage of the energy shock wave during the explosion to directly drag the already confused evil woman and bounced back to the arena in the direction of the shock wave.
Gray Merchant's behavior obviously angered the monsters watching in the void. They howled in anger, and some even wanted to charge into the arena.
However, the wise master snorted coldly, and the monsters around him became quiet as if they were electrocuted.
At this time, the wise master made another judgment, this time it was no longer a sound, but solemnly said:
"The battle is over!"
