Chapter 86: Wil's preparations

Llyne City;

After hearing the announcement, people who were online started to rush towards Battle Arena to register themselves to not lose the opportunity. 

As more than a hundred thousand players are in a rush, no one cared about the appearance of Time Traveler inside the city. Not to mention, he is bound to enter the tournament when there are such excellent rewards.

As for why Wil is in the capital city instead of Eldershore or East Ocean city, it's because he was here for something else. 

Before going to Battle Arena to register himself, Wil roamed the streets of the city and found a small weapons store that seems to have a good flow of customers.

It was only when he entered the store did people realized the appearance of Wil and they sent messages to their higher-ups as a part of the norm.

Meanwhile, the manager ignored everyone else and greeted him respectfully, "welcome. May I know what you are looking for? We have gold to epic grade equipment; augment stones, resurrection scrolls, pet scrolls, Hp and mana scrolls.

I see that you are an Archer. We have arrows with special effects like poison and fire, which increases damage, and lightning effects which paralyze your opponents. It is extremely helpful in the upcoming tournament.

Each set of poison and fire arrows cost only 8 silver, two silver less than NPC shops while normal arrows are just 1 silver per set, 33% less than NPC shops. As for lightning effect arrows, it cost 20 silver per set, five silver less than NPC stores. You can get more discount if you buy in bulk."

If you are interested in bullets, we have poison bullets that not only paralyze your opponents; it increases your damage too."

Looking at this man who was focusing on Time Traveler while ignoring them, the rest of the customers cursed him inside as a Shameless man, who was only caring about the rich...

While different thoughts are going in everyone's minds, Wil, on the other hand, asked indifferently, "do you have level-150 epic grade equipment?"

The entire shop went silent for a while and everyone just stared at him while wondering whether he was serious or just kidding.

Looking at the manager's expression, Wil sighed, "figured. Just give me 10 sets of poison arrows, 10 sets of lightning arrows, and another 10 sets of normal arrows."

As Wil ordered just a very normal amount, the manager can't help but turn disappointed, "Yes, 2 gold 90 silver please."

Looking at his expression as the other players sneered and thought he deserved it for ignoring them, just then, Wil added, "Oh, also give me all augment stone you have in your shop."

"Eh? Did you just say all?" The manager who walked a couple of steps to fetch the arrows suddenly turned around in a surprise, "did you really mean to buy everything? We have a total of 2289 augment stones in our shop." 

Wil looked at him indifferently, "am I flinching?"

As the manager shook his head while being dumbfounded, Wil said, "then, what are you waiting for. Get to work."

As he started placing sets of arrows one after one on the table and then makes a heap of augment-stones in the end, the manager said, "each stone costs 5 silver. The total cost including the arrows is 117 gold 35 silver. Since you make such a large purchase, how about 100 gold? If you are dissatisfied with the price, I can give you more discount…"

"It's enough," Wil placed a pouch containing 100 gold coins on to the table without care and then, he threw everything into his inventory before leaving the store and the stupefied customers and an ecstatic manager, who made 100 gold, which is almost equivalent to 20 million credits just like that.

After exiting the store, Wil looked at the time, "Hmm, it's still 1 o'clock. Registration will be closed at 5 p.m. So, there are four hours left. Since I'm the only level-150 player in the Kingdom, I won't get any equipment in any store.

Let's hit the dungeons and wild right now. As long as I can make it back four hours before, I can just pay the late fees and enter. 

But, before that...

Three hours later, Level-150 zone;

Five level-250 Royal knights are overpowering the level-150 wild boss, Giant Moon Rabbit while Wil was comfortably attacking it with normal arrows from time to time while flying around it.

As it died and dropped the items, Wil raised his fist, "yes. Finally..."

Moon Rabbit's Bow

Level: 150

Attack: 219398

Crt. rate: 39.9%

"Aw... critical rate is low. If the opponents have a high critical resist, it'll be tough to activate crt.damage. Well, it doesn't matter. My damage is high enough even without crt damage. 

After enhancing the weapon to +15, and the rest to +9, Wil returned to the city and went to Battle Arena.

As soon as he entered the lobby, a notification sound rang in his ears.

*Ding. Do you like to register for World Battle Tournament?

Wil clicked yes and paid the late fee of 10 silver.

30 minutes later;

*Ding. A portal is opened at the Battle arena in all cities. 

*Ding. Battle Tournament is going to commence in an hour. Enter the portal to participate in battles.

As Wil entered the portal, he found himself in a white space and a large screen appeared before him that has info on the right and a big start button on the left.

Info:

"Start"

As Wil clicked on the start button, he received a notification on the screen.

*Ding. You are matched with Galaxy Cry. The match is going to start in 5 seconds.

As 5 seconds countdown is over, the surroundings changed.

Wil stood on a large platform and saw a demon race player before him.

As Wil raised his bow, Galaxy cry dashed towards him with a long katana in his hand.

Looking at his action, Wil looked at him in pity, "too bad that you met me in the first round…"

Just when Galaxy Cry reached Wil and about to slash him with the sword, the latter mumbled, "Heavenly push, 0 mana."

All of a sudden, a huge gust of wind pushed him away and by the time he landed a hundred meters away, Wil dashed forward 30 meters and hit a normal arrow on him and crt appear on the opponent's head. And that's it...

*Ding. Your Hp reached zero. You lose.

Galaxy Cry just stood there in a daze, "What just happened, right now?"

Meanwhile, Wil received a score of 2950 and returned to white space.

The info was changed and one win and 2950 score appeared.

Wil once again pressed start.

*Ding. You are matched with Lost Woods.

Five seconds later, the match started.

This time, the opponent is a gunner.

Looking at Wil, He arrogantly said, "just withdraw. I don't want to waste time..."

*Swoosh* By the time he finished the dialogue, an Ice arrow appeared in his vision.

"Hmpf, looks like you have some skills," commented LostWoods as he jumped back to dodge the arrow.

But to his surprise, as the arrow reached its range limit after traveling 35 meters of distance, it fell on the ground, and suddenly, the freezing effect activated.

All the forty meters around the arrow were frozen along with the opponent.

"What!!! I'm frozen. What kind of Ice arrow is that? I can't move... what's happening..." As the opponent continued to struggle, Wil spoke, "do you know why you cannot move?"

Since there was no response from LostWoods because even his mouth is frozen, Wil said with a smile, "because I'm a lot stronger than you, simple. Don't worry, I won't waste too much of your time. Goodbye, little woods..."
