Chapter 706 - Sharp Shooter III

When it comes to the sensitivity of detecting things then Vayu would be on the top when it comes to their group. If it comes to changes in space, then Adrian would be the most sensitive but if it is in general then Vayu would win hands down.

He could detect things that are a kilometer away from him as long as the wind shifted a bit. This is only possible because of Vayu's innate skill to perceive changes in his surrounding in the real world. The body of a half elemental is basically acting as the magnifier of his own skill.

His unique body gives him the edge in detecting small changes in the shifts of wind. This ability is also true for Soleil that can detect the sudden change of heat in the surroundings, but she is easily distracted which is why she does not always notice it.

The players of the event suddenly noticed that a series of points suddenly started to be gained by Team Japan as Vayu started to move swiftly in a one-kilometer radius near his team. Even Hou Yiwei frowned upon seeing that the points that he gained is now being drowned by one of the players in Blade's team.

Although Hou Yiwei does not say it outwardly, he does not view Blade as a rival since he never once lost a battle against him. The only people that Hou Yiwei views as his rivals are Eldritch, Frey, and Equinox as he could actually imagine losing against them and some have defeated him inside the game.

"Everyone move now. Frey would also start to move after this assault from the team from Japan." Hou Yiwei stated as he started to use a skill that dealt damage in a large area.

"Heavenly Punishing Arrow Rain!" Hou Yiwei stated as he charged an arrow with great amounts of mana and launched it in the air.

A large magic circle then appeared in an area that covered about two kilometers. Every player saw the magic circle that suddenly formed in the sky. They all knew this skill as it is the greatest area of effect skill that an archer class job could use but it should have only be able to cover an area of 500 meters.

A few seconds later, the magic circle suddenly started to manifest arrows made of light and launched them directly in the area affected. Millions of arrows made of light rained down on the area that dealt a little bit of damage on the area, but it is an effective skill that destroyed the lowest point targets.

[Player Hou Yiwei (China) has successfully destroyed a target. He earns one point for his group.]

[Player Hou Yiwei (China) has successfully destroyed a target. He earns one point for his group.]

[Player Hou Yiwei (China) has successfully destroyed a target. He earns one point for his group.]

…..

With just one skill, Hou Yiwei managed to amass fifteen points for their team. The leaderboard shifted to his team's favor with just one skill. The skill still has five seconds left before it fully deactivates but he noticed that something is amiss as the system notifications stopped.

[Your spell has been erased due to the intervention of someone.]

[Your mana has been reduced by 15% of the total mana used on the magic spell that was erased.]

Hou Yiwei then looked at the sky and saw that his magic circle is already disintegrating as if the mana is losing its power. He could only think of this as the work of someone from Team United States as she would be the only person capable of doing something like destroying magic circle.

"The Anti Mage is actually here." Hou Yiwei stated as the focus of the entire crowd shifted to a beautiful woman in gray robes.

"The Anti Mage has done it again and has easily deleted the enormous spell that player Hou Yiwei created which made him unable to gain anymore points. As expected of player Null! She will definitely have a factor in the decision of who will reign supreme in this event!" The announcer stated as the crowd focused on the beautiful lady.

The player Null is actually from the rare class of Anti Mages which is very difficult to find or even be a part of. They are a secret society that rules some part of the continent and would condemn wizards or witches that use their magic for cruelty. Although some kingdoms only see them as outlaws or vigilantes.

She is also a very famous player, but she would rather play by herself as she deemed having a team would be a shackle to her growth. This is the reason why the United States team decided to split up in the very first start of the event as their egos will clash with one another.

It is basically fine to say that they are helping each other by not actually helping each other. With the deletion of the large magic circle a decent amount of mana has been deleted from Hou Yiwei and he would be unable to cast that skill again for the time being as the cooldown will increase.

"This is actually the first time that I have seen the Anti Mage in action as they rarely move as an organization. I actually wanted to be part of it but the fact that they are considered outlaws in different kingdoms is a big downer." Marlon stated as he wanted to be an Anti Mage as first.

"Being an Anti Mage is great but they also have a severe weakness and that is their doctrine. Anti Magic is still magic, but they actually advocate for the erasure of all magic but the class if very good if they are against magic class centered fights.

The obvious weakness would be the fact that they are rather vulnerable against opponents that only uses skills of warriors rather than spells.." Adrian stated as this job class is great but has a large drawback as well.
