Chapter 130 - Part 1: Zack Versus Daniel

"I don't know who will be my opponent," I mutter as I walk towards the same dome arena. It's just that I'm intrigued about it. Except for my classmates, I never met any other students. It'll be a fascinating match. I soon arrived at the arena. Mr. Arthur and Ms. Key are in the monitor room as usual.

They instructed me to wait here earlier. I came here the last time for the Blood Kill test. I'm about to engage in a life-or-death battle. As I was pondering it. My Sci - fi wristwatch beeped. Ms. Key is on the line. I answered the phone. Above the screen, her hologram face appeared.

"Zack, Prepare yourself. In addition, a participant was chosen at random to battle alongside you." Ms. Key expressed herself in a calm manner. When I heard that, I realised what was going on. So it's possible that my first opponent will be different. "Seems like the management did something again," I thought to myself. She also informed me about the current time.

There will be no time limit imposed. Unless one of the parties is deceased, the dome will not open. I'm paying attention to her explanation. It seemed extreme to me. I was the one who proposed a life-or-death fight. Our privacy rules, on the other hand, are very tight. If both are discovered to be alive.

It is then simple to reveal the other party. We had already been given permission to use our elements. So long as there's one survivor, he'll be able to keep his secret. Then, as a mentor, she gave me some counsel. Before that, it's duelling time.

"Creak" The metal door slid open.

I walk into the arena at a steady pace. The door automatically shut behind me. I took a peek around and discovered that the arena was in the same condition as before. Only A. I system is installed above. At the top, there are many panels and sensors to keep an eye on the situation. I'm thinking about it.

"Creak," The door slid open on the opposite side.

Daniel Haynes was the first to speak up. His face has a unique expression. He has a happy and enthusiastic grin on his face. When He first saw Zack, He was ecstatic "Right, your name is Zack. I'm not sure what kind of good luck you've had. That is why our institutions have chosen you to represent them." Daniel expressed his displeasure. Zack, he believed, had more luck than ability.

I scowled a little when I heard that. I reasoned that our training centre's seniors wouldn't be so pompous. However, it appears that this is not the case. His clothes appear to be those worn by adventurers. It appears that he has already made up his mind to defeat.

He's probably imagining himself triumphant. That made me smirk in my heart. Rather, respond to him. I make my way over to the platform. There is still a "X" mark in the area. Ms. Key's explanation follows. As long as we're inside the dome, I believe. To eliminate the opponent, we can employ any strategy. I make the decision to use the entire arena.

"I'm not sure what level he's at." As a result, he appears to be older than me. He's probably a Mid-level." In my head, I made a remark.

"Humph," Daniel muttered. He conveyed his dissatisfaction. He hurried to the platform's middle to teach him a lesson. The door is shut behind him. Confirming that he had a sheepish grin on his face. He noticed Zack approaching the platform. He decides to execute a sneak attack in order to finish the fight fast.

He pulled his weapon from his lower model storage ring and drew it out.

<<Grade one 8mm- Energy Hand Gun>>

<<This is a high-tech, modern weapon.

Adventurers, spies, and patrol squads are the most common users. It necessitates a great level of precision and weapon handling ability. Elemental energy is used to fuel all modern weaponry technology. The Hand Gun was powered by the warriors' elemental force. As a result, energy bullets appear in the magazine. >>

Daniel Haynes wields two weapons. However, he believed that one handgun would suffice. The handgun is powered by fire elemental energy. "Ssshh," a warm energy gathers around the handgun. His control was impeccably fine. There is no energy wastage. In the magazine, it quickly generates energy bullets. Then he takes aim at Zack's brow and fires a shot.

"Bang" "Bang," two rounds fired in rapid succession. The sound reverberated across the dome. Outsiders, fortunately, were not able to see or hear it. The noise and images are blocked by the dome.

Two fire energy bullets, each measuring 8mm in diameter. Arrives at Zack at rapid speed. After that, one after the other.

As I stepped forward onto the platform. Instinctively, my perceptual ability activated. I'm aware of two lethal threats directed at me. Even utilising perception, I'm having trouble understanding it. Since then, it has gotten closer. Mr. Arthur taught me a movement technique.

I had undergone training as a result of it. I took enough of a stride to the side to evade the first bullet. The initial energy bullet misses Zack's skull and lands in space. However, it was quickly followed by another round of energy bullets.

My senses were amplified. The second energy bullet was heading straight towards my heart. He did a meticulous calculation. I moved rapidly to get away from it. Regardless, I'm defending my deadly points. My left elbow is still struck by the energy bullet.

I yelled in pain, "Aaaarrrgggghhh!"

My elbow was ripped open. It didn't end there, though. The fire energy has entered my veins and is ravaging them. I'm in excruciating pain right now. To fight the hot fire energy, I quickly ran my lightning energy through my veins.

When the two energies collided, it was a big bang. I was in significantly more discomfort. I clenched my teeth to get it through. I broadened my field of perception. Around me, I can perceive a range of about 10 metres. I can clearly see his motions in this space.. "I was careless," I thought to myself when I saw him carrying an Energy Hand Gun.
