Chapter 247 Team Battles! Part-5.

*Bam!*

Two punches collided, causing massive shockwaves in the air; the ground cracked, and nearby trees were immediately uprooted due to the massive air pressure.

“Hahaha! Amazing! To be able to keep up with me like that!” (Link)

Link landed on the ground and took his stance once again, A crazy smile hung over his face as if he were thoroughly enjoying this battle.

[Dragon Arts: Overload: Medium!]

Condensed mana whirled around Link’s body as he used his skills.

Vanya wiped the blood from her mouth with the back of her hand and took her own stance.

[Elven Style Imperial Arts: Enhance: Speed!]

Vanya stretched out her hand and a smirk appeared on her face.

“I can see that you are holding back for some reason, but don’t underestimate me either!” (Vanya)

*crack!*

The ground under Vanya’s feet cracked due to sheer force and she immediately launched at Link like a cannonball.

“Don’t try to compete with me in terms of speed! I have fought a guy much faster than you!” (Link)

A smirk appeared on Link’s face as he side-stepped instantly and counterattacked with an uppercut to her shoulder.

[Elven Style Imperial Arts: Enhance: Defense!]

Vanya had to concentrate a lot of mana on defense, as she knew she couldn’t dodge that attack.

The attack landed on her left shoulder and she immediately flew away like an arrow, Her body crashed with many trees and boulders before finally stopping.

But obviously, Link wasn’t going to let this opportunity go so easily.

He immediately pursued and attacked her with a kick as he came flying down at her from mid-air.

[Dragon Arts: Falling thunder!]

Vanya barely dodged that attack as she jumped away on time, but the flying debris still gave her a few scratches.Discover 𝒏ew chapters at novelbi𝒏(.)co𝒎

(Don’t underestimate the stray debris; even the stones that fly in the air after Link’s attack have five times the speed of sound.)

Link glanced at Vanya with an amused look as he said in a doubtful tone:

“Forget about me; you are the one who is holding back, I think… ‘transformation’ is likely not the only thing you have, right?” (Link)

Link and Vanya started to slowly walk in circles as they stared at each other as if they both wanted to see through their opponent’s mind.

“Heh, so you can sense that?Well, I am trying to save my other tricks for the individual phase of the competition, so I can’t reveal them right now.” (Vanya)

“Hah! Do you think you will make it to the individual phase? If you can’t defeat me right now, will you even be able to leave?” (Link)

A smirk appeared on Vanya’s face as she heard Link’s words.

“Well, you don’t need to worry about that; I have my ways.” (Vanya)

…

Around the same time.

Above the Lake.

*Swish*

Following the sound of a sword being swung in the air, a hundred sword strikes came down at a Murloc martial artist.

The speed of those sword strikes was so fast that none of its fellow teammates were able to react in time to save the guy.

[Elemental Sword Art: Water type: Flow of a Hundred Streams!]

The sound of meat being cut resounded throughout the area and the Murloc martial artist lost its four limbs in an instant.

Blood flowed like a fountain and a teleportation circle appeared below him instantly.

Fortunately, an S-rank healer will heal him to full health soon.

But what made the other Murloc warriors so shocked was the fact that Rio looked totally unconcerned and indifferent after nearly killing an innocent person.

‘I used too much strength there.’ (Rio)

[Elemental Sword Art: Thunder Type: Thunder arc!]

Rio raised his sword above his shoulder and swung it down towards a nearby Murloc spearman.

A massive thunder arc shot out of Rio’s sword and instantly hit the Murloc Swordsman.

Thunder-type attacks have a more severe effect on the Murloc race, as their resistance to thunder is lower compared to other races.

Rio’s attack was really inhumane; the Murloc spearman immediately got burned black and fainted because of that condensed thunder arc.

Seeing Rio’s inhumane way of defeating his opponents, the other Murlocs stepped back in fear; to them, Rio looked like a cold-blooded murderer at that moment.

But unlike the fearful Murlocs, Rio wasn’t even thinking about them in his head.

‘Hmm, it seems I have become proficient at walking on water now…’ (Rio)

Indeed, Rio’s proficiency over his sword has been honed so much that he can even walk on water now.

He is literally fighting the Murlocs while standing on the lake’s surface as if it were solid ground!

Usually, Murlocs have a higher advantage when the battle takes place near water bodies like lakes, rivers, etc.

Most of their skills are related to the water element; thus, they get a significant boost by staying near water during battles, but this major advantage was completely useless against Rio.

Unlike ordinary A-rankers, Rio could walk or run on the water just like he does on the ground, so it was nearly impossible for him to get hit so easily.

Currently, he can run at the speed of Mach 7 as if it were nothing.

Moreover, he uses sword intent to cover his body, so he doesn’t disturb the atmosphere around him, which means no waves are created in water or air when he runs at that insane speed!

Which makes him nearly invisible to detection without great proficiency in detection-type skills.

‘I should finish this early… I want to have some tea later.’ (Rio)

[Elemental Sword Arts: Thunder Type: Spreading Thunder Pulse!]

Rio placed his sword beside his waste and swung it horizontally.

A massive shockwave made of condensed thunder launched from his sword swing and burned the cowering Murlocs to crisp in an instant.

The entire Murloc team would have perished in that single attack if it weren’t for the barrier the seven mermaid people put up from behind.

Only two Murlocs were left standing with half-burnt bodies as they were covered by the magic barrier on time; the rest of them were already teleported away from the scene.

‘hmm, how many of my attacks can that barrier take? I wonder… hundred? Thousand?…’ (Rio)

While contemplating in his mind, Rio’s face remained as expressionless as ever, and his eyes remained devoid of life. (Rio is being a real menace right now.)

…

Around the same time.

*flink!*

Following the sound of an arrow being launched, a massive explosion happened on the ground.

Debris flew into the air, reducing the visibility, but that was not a problem for Liam’s bats, as they could easily use detection to compensate for the lack of visibility.

[Advanced Fire Magic: Ray of Boiling lava!]

A gigantic beam of condensed lava fired at the elven archer standing on the treetop.

The speed of that lava ray was faster than sound itself and it was so hot and concentrated that you could feel the heat from far away.

Liam blasted off all the trees in a hundred-meter range ahead of him.

Even the ground seems to have melted from that insane heat.

The Elven Archer had to dodge desperately in order to survive that attack.

By barely escaping the attack, she was not injured and only a light burn mark had appeared on her right shoulder.

That wasn’t going to stop her from attacking.

She stretched out the string of her bow and used her skill to condense a fire arrow out of thin air.

[Companion Style: Condensed Fire Arrow!]

She fired the arrow at Liam while still in mid-air.

Liam was not to be outdone by her either.

He placed his wand on the ground and did what a summoner does—he summoned!

[Summon: Titan Mammoth!]

A gigantic mammoth appeared out of the summoning circle and instantly blocked the arrow attack for Liam.

*bahruuuuuhhhaaaaa!!*

The condensed arrow landed on the mammoth’s stomach and it did cause a wound on the mammoth’s body, but the wound started to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Liam smirked as he glanced at the shocked Elven archer’s face.

“I have no shortage of summoned beasts… I wonder how long you will be able to keep me busy.” (Liam)

This mammoth is the third-strongest summon in Liam’s arsenal.

First is obviously Ellie, second is the wyvern he uses most of the time, and third is this ‘tanky’ guy, this mammoth has exceptional self-healing capabilities.

‘Unfortunately, I can’t summon Ellie in this competition; otherwise, I wouldn’t even have bothered with using any other summons.’ (Liam)

Ellie is an S-rank Summon, that’s why Liam is not allowed to summon her during the competition, otherwise, he would have summoned her long ago.

[Master, I can still do basic things like ‘blessing’ or ‘barrier’ though.] (Ellie)

‘Yeah, but still…’ (Liam)

Ever since the group survival test, Liam hadn’t de-summoned Ellie even once; he has become so used to being beside her that it feels weird now that she isn’t near him.

‘My chances of winning this whole competition would have been very high if I could summon Ellie, but now I am not so sure about it.’ (Liam)

Liam waved his hand and ordered the Mammoth to pursue and attack the Elven archer.

Using the bats, he could easily pinpoint her location and thus there was no way for her to run away from the range of the Mammoth.

The Mammoth’s heavy steps made the ground crack under his feet and its imposing aura made the Elven Archer feel a bit intimidated.

(Liam usually gets overshadowed by Rio and Link, but he isn’t weak either.)
