Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 186 The Soul of the Stars
When Angel left the management office, he was still a little dizzy.It felt a little unreal for Melansha to agree to revise the competition system so easily.Although in the end Melansha put forward a request: "Every game is less than the surrender point, and you must not voluntarily abstain."

But this requirement is still very loose for Angel.

Even though the competition system that Melansha revised for Angel did not affect the fairness of the competition, he still found it a bit strange.

He and Melansha have never met before, so why is the other party willing to sell him a favor?
Angel thought for a long time, but couldn't think of an answer.In the end, I can only come to the conclusion: I think too much about people's utilitarianism, but in fact there are still kind-hearted people who don't ask for anything in return.

But Angel forgot one thing. Sanders must have communicated with the top management of the Sky Tower to get the video of him during the game.As one of the top executives of the Sky Tower, Melansha must know Angor's true identity. Knowing the relationship between Sanders and Angor, her concession is actually normal.

Sanders doesn't just accept apprentices at will.Angle can be seen by Sanders, there must be something unique.You know, Sanders had only accepted two students before, and all of them were promoted to official wizards.

Because of this, Melantha actually has expectations for Angel.

——Without affecting the fairness of the competition system, she can still make a "quasi-future wizard" owe a favor, and she is not at a loss.Even if Angel did not qualify as an official wizard in the end, it would have no effect on her. The competition system she modified for Angel would not affect the fairness of the game at all.It will even increase the risk of players, and will not be criticized.

Melansha's calculations were very good. It can only be said that Angel is still too immature to think of this level.

……

Melansha had already agreed to the modification, and when Angel returned to play on the fifth floor, the staff no longer refused, and simply changed his game interval to 5 minutes.

Since then, Angor has embarked on a more crazy journey of climbing towers.

In such a high-intensity, high-intensity game, Angel must control the magic power more precisely.After all, he is only a first-level apprentice, and the total amount of mana is not much. Every ounce of mana must be used sparingly. If mana is consumed without any scruples like before, it is easy to run out of mana after two or three games. .

Under such circumstances, it is even more difficult for Angel to maintain an absolute winning percentage.

He saw many different types of players, and several of them posed a great threat to him.For example, the puppeteer who controls the puppets, the master who uses mental power to attack, and the word spirit who uses language to attack... In the contest with these players, Angel often needs to consume a lot of magic power, and even finally uses the golden magic pattern engraved Only small arrows can win.

At this time, he remembered the meaning of what Melansha said, "Until the point of admitting defeat, you must not voluntarily surrender."

This kind of strong player can consume a lot of energy and magic power, and it takes a long time to win. Even if he wins in the end, he won't even think about the second match for most of the day.Therefore, if he can consciously screen his opponents, admit defeat when encountering these strong opponents, and quickly queue up for the next game, then he will climb the tower faster; obviously, Melansha foresees this situation, so Get vaccinated in advance.Because if he really does this, the fairness of the competition system will be destroyed.

It took Angel a week to reach the tenth floor.

On the tenth floor, the auditorium is no longer absolutely empty, and occasionally two or three people can be seen watching the game together.However, the games they watched were basically the most popular players, and Angel's games were still ignored.

Until this day, Angel drew a lottery for a contestant named "Soul of the Stars". Before the game started, there were already people in the auditorium. By the time Angel stood on the ring, [-]% of the auditorium was already occupied The seats are filled.

This was the first time that there were so many audience seats after Angel left the first floor of the Sky Tower.

Angel did not think that the audience came to see him.Then there is only one possibility, and it is for his opponent, the soul of the stars.

So, the soul of the stars is very powerful?

This doubt gave Angel a clear answer within 2 minutes after the start of the game.

Soul of the Stars is really powerful!
It was the kind of fierceness that Angel didn't understand, and it was also the most surly opponent he encountered.

During the match, he would spit at the slightest disagreement, his expression would be ferocious and exaggerated, and he would laugh like ghosts howling. He was obviously a decadent and melancholy handsome man before the match, so why did he change so much when the match started?
The reason why it is said that the soul of the stars is so powerful is that the method he used is something Angel has never seen before, and it is a vague female shadow.

Angel didn't know what the shadow was at the beginning, but after a few brief encounters, he not only understood the truth about the female shadow, he even remembered the identity of the soul of the stars.

In the Sky Tower seed list passed to him by David, the information of the souls of the stars is clearly recorded.

Angel didn't think about it at first, because in the picture that David passed to him, the image of the soul of the stars was still an image with a shawl and long hair. Although it also had a decadent temperament, the image of the soul of the stars in the crystal ball connector was even more Leaning towards artists, the soul of the stars is like a... crazy.

The soul of the stars, whose real name is Saka.A second-level apprentice of the soul department on the mysterious side, under the tutelage of "Necromancer Redemption" Ness Byron.He is good at soul manipulation and carries a powerful soul with him, and is called "Three Stars" by him.

In the information that David compiled, there are only two stars out of the three stars, namely "Virgo" Sylvia and "Daisy Star" Herrington.According to records, Saka's strength has already reached the top level, but it seems that the pressure is waiting for someone.

Regarding Saka's description, Angel was not only concerned about his attack methods, but also cared more about his mentor: 'Death Redemption' Ness Byron.

The same teacher as Hook Dick.

In fact, it also makes sense, after all, both of them belong to the mysterious side of the soul system.

……

The female shadow beside Saka is the soul of Sylvia, who is called "Virgo", a powerful female wizard apprentice.

Sylvia used to be a contestant in the Sky Tower, but later died at the hands of Saka in the arena, and was taken under Saka's command.

Angor's strength is far from that of Saka. All physical defense methods are unable to resist Sylvia's footsteps. Even the erected ice wall, Sylvia can pass through the wall.

On the other side, Saka was also bound by an unknown chain, and Angel's little golden arrow couldn't break through that unknown chain at all.

However, fortunately, Sylvia didn't do much damage to him.

Angel is actually very puzzled by this point. The "virgin star" Sylvia recorded by David is good at howling in shock, can shock the soul, and make people enter a dizzy state for a short time.

Sylvia had already screamed several times, but Angel didn't feel any soul shock at all.He was a little skeptical that Sylvia's previous screams were just to scare people, not the frightened screams in the rumors.

Not long ago, Sylvia seemed to be irritated.

Angor was still a little baffled, he couldn't even attack Sylvia, why was he so angry?
Anger filled Sylvia's weak cheeks, and her soul burst into red light.

When the red light suddenly appeared, Angel immediately recalled David's record. In addition to screaming in shock, Sylvia also had a trick: soul absorption!

The soul absorbs the Dacheng realm, which can directly extract the soul from the body.But Sylvia's display can only make people feel the pain of tearing the soul.

But even if there is only the pain of tearing the soul, it is enough to make people want to die, and they will be caught without a fight.

Angor has nothing to do at this time, he has never learned the defensive technique of the soul, and he is a little annoyed in his heart, so he can only attack Saka non-stop.

He didn't call Toby during the game today, otherwise he would have directly asked Toby to attack Saka.

At this critical moment, Angel used the small golden arrow with the armor-piercing magic pattern. He couldn't believe that the armor-piercing arrow could not break through Saka's chain defense.

During Sylvia's attack on Angor, Saka never made a move, but just looked at Angor with a ferocious face, spitting at the side from time to time, full of insanity.But when Sylvia used Soul Drain, a red light flashed in his eyes, and his expression became more and more distorted.

boom--

Gale wind and sound barrier, small armor-piercing arrows shot from Angor's cuff.

A golden light flashed, and the target reached Saka's chains.

As Angel thought, the chains could resist ordinary golden arrows, but they still couldn't resist the small armor-piercing arrows.

When the chain was broken, Saka's face immediately turned pale. The chain was not a real chain, but a defense method of the soul system, called the soul chain.The strength of the chain is closely related to his soul, and at the same time, once the chain is broken, his soul will also be damaged.

The chain was broken, and Saka did not expect it at all.

But the damage caused by the small armor-piercing arrow was not only in the soul.After breaking through the soul chain, the small armor-piercing arrow still didn't stop, and continued to rush towards Saka's body.

In the end, the armor-piercing arrow shot into Saka's shoulder, and blood flowed out of a blood hole.

Angel, who has practiced bow and arrow since he was a child, seldom makes mistakes in his aim, and what he hit was Saka's shoulder.Angel did not intend to take human life.

David once described Saka in the data. Saka only "manslaughter" Sylvia in the Sky Tower match. Since then, he has never killed anyone in the Sky Tower match, even if the opponent provoked him , The words are rude, David just let Sylvia shake his soul, stunned the opponent, and then left quietly.

In Angel's heart, Saka seemed to be one of the few good people in the wizarding world.Even if he was a little crazy, Angel didn't intend to really harm him.

So the target was Saka's shoulder, not Saka's vitals.

Angel believed that his armor-piercing arrow should have deterred Saka, and then Saka should admit defeat on his own, right?
Angel thought well, but the reality did not go as he thought.

Sylvia's soul absorption has not stopped, and Saka has no intention of admitting defeat, even——

Saka's eyes turned red, and his expression became more ferocious and frightening. Angel even faintly saw a hint of excitement in Saka's expression.

There is a big gash on the shoulder, and the blood is not only bleeding but also excited?

At this time, Sylvia's soul absorption seemed to be coming to an end, the red light was shining brightly, and a trace of annoyance flashed across Angel's face.

Strange ripples emanated from Sylvia's body.

Saka's eyes became even more excited.

Angel thought that he would definitely be stunned by the soul absorption, and he was ready for his "first defeat".

but……

The ripples absorbed by the soul oscillated wildly, and Angel only felt a tingling pain in his spirit for a moment.

Then, nothing else.

When Sylvia's red light disappeared, Angel still stood upright.

In the surprised eyes of the audience, and in Saka's excited and suspicious eyes, Angel murmured and asked uncertainly: "Is this the end? Is this soul extraction?"
