Chapter 28 - Demon Race's Target

Aika had a very clear understanding of her own strength, so when she said these words, it meant that the arena matches in the next few days were meaningless to her.

A golden light suddenly appeared on the screen. Zhuo Bufan knew that it must be Tripitaka using that move that he was most proficient in. But the strange thing was that after the golden light, Tripitaka did not return from the arena immediately like the previous times. This abnormal action made Zhuo Bufan somewhat curious as to what exactly was happening.

When he refocused on the screen, he realized that Tripitaka was holding his staff and running around the edge of the arena, with a demon chasing after him.

Up until now, almost every human had encountered the demon race. While the victory and defeat numbers were somewhat even, those who had lost had all lost their lives.

Moreover, when the demons themselves fought against each other, they did not care about friendship or kinship.

Almost every move was fatal.

“Is the Demon Race crazy?” Zhuo Bufan muttered in a low voice. Aika and Anasu walked forward, breaking out in a cold sweat for Tripitaka who was fighting.

Although he was usually long-winded in the channel and always said some meaningless things, it was still useful at crucial moments. If he died at the hands of the demons, it would be a great loss for the human race.

However, the rules on the arena were fixed at one-on-one. Even if Zhuo Bufan wanted to go up and help, it was absolutely impossible.

Therefore, the only thing everyone could do was pray that Tripitaka would have a chance to seize a loophole to exploit the demon and win.

But from the looks of it, the two sides would remain in a deadlock for a while before the results were out.

“It’s been twenty-five minutes. The Immovable Radiant King Armor’s defensive effects are about to end,” Aika commented.

Zhuo Bufan’s heart skipped a beat. Until now, Tripitaka had already taken at least three direct hits. But because he had Immovable Radiant King Armor’s 100% defense, he was not injured.

However, once the armor lost its effect, regardless of whether it was a direct or indirect attack, Tripitaka would suffer.

However, since many of the demons’ attacks were fatal, Tripitaka would only have a narrow chance of surviving by then.

As time passed, the Immovable Radiant King Armor’s defensive time was up. The effect ended.

As for Tripitaka, he had finally used his ultimate move once again. From the way he fought with all his might, it was clear that he did not want to lose in the arena today.

Fortunately, his ultimate move this time managed to injure the demon. While it was trying to evade, Tripitaka managed to exploit its weakness and successfully won the battle.

The moment the outcome was revealed, Tripitaka immediately used the teleportation portal to return to the arena.

“Aiyo, my mother, this Demon Race is really too powerful. I almost lost. The defense power of Immovable Radiant King Armor is not enough.”

“You wasted too much time trying to outrun the demon. You could have used Buddha’s Light a few more times.”

Zhuo Bufan said without batting an eyelid. Tripitaka actually had the same idea regarding this, but it was somewhat difficult to actually execute. For a big move like Buddha Aura’s Illumination, using it once would consume more than half of one’s energy. It was extremely challenging for Tripitaka to execute such a move twice in a short time.

This was like the cooldown time for skills in the game. Only when the cooldown time was up could the skills be used a second time.

“I hope that we will not be matched with the demons in the arena tomorrow. In fact, what I hope most is to be matched with the dragons. In this way, we will win without fighting!”

This manner of winning without fighting was only obtained thanks to Zhuo Bufan.

Speaking of which, the arena matchups today were strange. Tripitaka matched up with the Demon Race in the arena, barely eking out a win. When it was Zhuo Bufan’s turn, he coincidentally matched up with one of the demons as well.

Fortunately, he had experienced a match with them before, so he had some countermeasures to deal with it. However, for some reason, this opponent today was a little stronger than the previous one.

It seemed to constantly counter Zhuo Bufan’s moves, as if it had already figured out his attack style, and could ingeniously respond and defend before he made a move. As a result, after suffering two losses, Zhuo Bufan had no choice but to change his attack strategy.

The so-called strategy was merely to change his previous mode of attack. The moves were still the same, but the method used was no longer just the icicle or fireball, but the continuous attacks of the two. In the blink of an eye, the entire arena area was ruined.

But after a few rounds, Zhuo Bufan discovered that this Demon Race seemed to have come prepared. At the same time, he developed a kind of strange conjecture, seriously suspecting that besides his fights in the arena, the Demon Race had spent a lot of effort studying him.

Otherwise, it was impossible to grasp his attacks so precisely. For a time, Zhuo Bufan also faced the same predicament as Tripitaka.

According to usual times, victory and defeat could be determined within ten minutes. This time, it actually took twenty minutes. When he thought of how the Demon Race was his race’s sworn enemy, Zhuo Bufan did not show mercy, but directly dealt a ruthless blow and ended his life!

In just a few days, two demons had already died at his hands. This was something worth celebrating for the Human Race, but for the Demon Race, it was different.

Zhuo Bufan’s two matches against them had already become targets to be countered by the Demons. Each one wanted to kill him, and at the same time, increase their own abilities.

While the idea was there, Zhuo Bufan’s ability was already above average among the human race quite a long time ago. Although he could not be as skillful as Song Chenxing in a short period of time, wanting to hurt him was also not an easy thing.

After returning from the arena, Zhuo Bufan fell into deep thought. Merely a single arena match against already made the Demon Race have the intention to kill him. If he were to wait until the territory’s gate was completely opened, the Demon Race would probably send out their entire race to slaughter the Human Race, thereby obtaining the abilities they wanted.

When he thought about this, Zhuo Bufan opened the chat channel.

[Ten Thousand Races Battlefield World Channel]

Within the [Human Race Channel]…

[Zhuo Bufan: In a few days’ time, once the arena competition ends, the gates will open. I hope everyone can treat it cautiously and be on guard against the demons’ attack on us.]

[The Demon Race is too scary. But how do I guard against them?]

[I didn’t even participate in the arena this time. Will my territory’s gates open too?]

[Then I’d better find a safe place to hide. When the time comes, as long as I’m not discovered by other races, I’ll be able to survive.]

[Song Chenxing: What did you think of?]

Zhuo Bufan immediately answered when he saw Song Chenxing asking.

[Zhuo Bufan: I also matched up with the Demon Race today. I can clearly feel that they already understand our attacking methods very well, so I guess they must have conducted a very detailed analysis of the Human Race, and the goal is to wait for the territory gates to open after the arena matches. At that time, they can come to our territory wantonly and start a large-scale massacre. But at present, we have a fixed ally, that is the Dragon Race.]

[Aika: If we have allies, does that mean the Demon Race will have them too?]
