“Yes,” the quiet voice sounded again.

“Haha, now there is a good show in store for us!”

Watching the room, a sudden excited clamor broke out.

There was a perverted Botanist who was about to hit a hundred consecutive win streak with a dagger, and a more perverted guy who had maintained a winning streak of more than two hundred battles. This battle was really worth seeing!

“Who is the Queen of the Night? What is her profession?”

For the spectators within the viewing gallery, many adventurers were obviously very foreign to this username and couldn’t help but ask curiously.

“Hey, wait a minute, and you will find out! You will not be disappointed!”

But those adventurers in the know gave a mysterious laugh.

“This Page of Lingering Dust is using random challenges, so even though the Queen of the Night is matched up against him, it is not a definite thing that she would win,” seeing no one answering his question, the man said unconvinced.

“Stupid, ignorant! Adventurers with such a long winning streak will definitely be able to meet within three games inside the Arena. Especially now that Page of Lingering Dust is at ninety wins in a row, as long as the Queen of the Night comes online to the Arena, there is a 100% chance that they will meet!” the veteran player replied angrily.

Although the Random Challenge System in the Arena randomly selected opponents for adventurers, specific rules applied to this system. Outstanding adventurers with excellent challenge records would often face opponents with similarly stellar records.

Everyone was waiting with bated anticipation, and during the waiting period, many adventurers called for their close acquaintances to come and see the fun. Most of these adventurers were stuck in between Level 10 and Level 20, specializing in the battling within the Arena and polishing their challenge records. Since they got wind of such an exciting battle, even if they were levelling in the wild, they all hurried back at breakneck speed, afraid of missing the fight.

In the Arena, unless it was the two opposing parties themselves, else for spectators like them, who were watching in the viewing gallery, they were unable to record videos of other people’s battles. This translated to the fact means that they will never see the battle again if they missed it now.

There were more and more spectators watching the room, soon reaching a view count of seven or eight hundred people.

“Fuck! With so many people watching the room in the Level 10 Arena, even if it is not unprecedented, it would be in the top ten in the history of the game!”

Looking at the continuously refreshing notifications in the channel of the room, some old-birds couldn’t help feeling emotional for a while, and this simultaneously raised their expectations for this battle.

Under the expectant gaze of everyone in the room, Ye Chen had won two consecutive games, setting a record of 92 successive victories!

“Why isn’t the Queen of the Night coming yet? Could it be that she is afraid?”

After waiting for two games, some people couldn’t help but fret, worrying that even if they were to continue waiting, the Queen of the Night might not come, and this perverted Botanist would be gone.

“She is here. If there is no accident, then in the next game, the two will play against each other,” the quiet voice spoke with firm determination.

“A new round has started, it really is the Queen of the Night!” some adventurers shouted excitedly right after the quiet voice spoke.

“Blade, how do you feel about this Botanist?” Watching the ongoing proceedings within the room, Iron-Blooded Bunny asked the Bloodthirsty Blade, who was standing beside her, his voice very clear and sweet.

She and Bloodthirsty Blade were the core elite members of the Iron-Blooded Guild. Their levels were approaching the max level of 120. Under normal circumstances, they would not appear in a low-level Arena like this. However, a while back, the two overheard people speaking fervently about how in the low-level Level 10 Arena, a perverted Botanist appeared. There was even a high likelihood that he would face off the Queen of the Night, so they all came over to satisfy their brimming curiosity.

When the Queen of the Night was almost about to hit her two hundred consecutive victories, the two had rushed over upon hearing the news. But to think, it didn’t take a long time for this low-level Arena to have yet another powerful figure appearing within its midst.

Being able to win dozens of games in a row was definitely a manifestation of real strength. Still, for those who could win a hundred games in a row, they could basically be regarded as monster-level figures!

“Judging from the two battles just now, this Page of Lingering Dust is undoubtedly very formidable. I think he used to be a melee-type technical player before. Otherwise, his reaction would not be so swift and instantaneous.” Bloodthirsty Blade’s cold voice seemed to cut through the air. Although he had a name that seemed crazy and bloody, in actuality, Bloodthirsty Blade was a relatively calm person.

After the two arrived, they only watched two rounds of battles, but they already had a clearer understanding of the Botanist who used a dagger to cut people.

“I think so. The strange thing is why did he choose the Botanist? Preparing two sets of equipment and alternating between physical daMage and the Botanist Attack to produce output is indeed not bad. But now he is only taking advantage of the fact that other adventurers are still low in level and have few skills in their arsenal. When reaching more advanced levels, he’ll definitely be unable to keep up this kind of playstyle. With such an amazing skill set, he should understand this fact too. So, why did he choose to play a Botanist?…Well, forget it, it’s others’ matter on how they like to play. Blade, do you think it’s possible to recruit him into the guild? When his level becomes higher, he will definitely become a formidable figure!”

“Depends on luck,” Bloodthirsty Blade lightly said in response.

Iron-Blooded Bunny could only smile bitterly. When she discovered the Queen of the Night before, she contacted the Queen of the Night excitedly, expressing her willingness to recruit her to become a core elite, yet the Queen of the Night refused her in no unclear terms.

“It’s starting! It’s starting! When they arrive, they will walk to the central area of the map!” An excited voice on the channel sounded, and the two refocused their concentration back to the match.

The Arena map was a flat green grassland, and Ye Chen and the Queen of the Night were gradually approaching each other.

“Spatial-Type Mage?”

Looking far away at the familiar, gleaming pitch-black profession-specific clothing of the Queen of the Night, Ye Chen’s face slightly twisted.

Spatial-Type Mage was a profession that could compete with the Botanist and was also known as a “self-torturing profession” and “newbie killer” profession.

For Mage professions of any other element, many skills had the ability to lock-on and track the enemy, but for the Spatial-Type Mage profession, practically none of its skills had the auto-aim function. If the Spatial-Type Mage wanted to attack his target, he must obtain the specific spatial coordinates of the target before launching an attack.

There were two ways to get the spatial coordinates of the target. The first and easiest method was to automatically calculate the target’s coordinates using the auxiliary guidance system of the Spatial-Type Mage profession. However, the auxiliary system did not give the coordinates of the target in an instant but required at least one second of calculation time to get the coordinates of the target. And as long as the target deviated from his original position, the calculation result was directly invalidated.

As for the second method, the adventurer could directly deduce the coordinates of the target. In this case, within a few meters of the target, according to the terrain, one or several coordinates would appear randomly. Based on these coordinates, the player can guess the specific coordinates of the target and then launch an attack.

Hence, although the Spatial-Type Mage had the highest Skill Attack and destructive power among several Mage systems, few adventurers played the Spatial-Type Mage. With the auxiliary system that comes with the Spatial-Type Mage profession, killing some monsters was okay, but it was basically a joke to use in PK.

However, if one were to choose to guess the target coordinates by themself, then one would have to be extremely sensitive towards spatial coordinates, which was definitely not something that ordinary adventurers could do. And even if they had this ability, playing this profession was simply too tiring, and few people could bear it for a long time. With this ability, it was much better to pick other professions and have an easier time.

When Ye Chen looked at the Queen of the Night in the distance, she had a tall and slender frame, with a head of flowing, black hair and Queen of the Night similarly looked back at Ye Chen, the Botanist.

Ye Chen didn’t know her yet, but she already knew that Ye Chen was an expert, and especially rushed over.

The two rapidly approached each other, and in the blink of an eye, Ye Chen had entered the attack range of the Queen of the Night.

Although Ye Chen also had Withering Light to cover his long-range attack capabilities, and could be considered half a long-range attacker, compared with the orthodox magic-related professions like a Mage, especially the Spatial-Type Mage, his attack range was much smaller.

However, Ye Chen didn’t pay much attention to it. When fighting against a Spatial-Type Mage, constant movements were the biggest weapon in countering them!

After all, just by relying on the guidance system of the Spatial-Type Mage profession, it was basically impossible to lock-on to his position. As for the Spatial-Type Mage personally deducing the coordinates, without a certain threshold of strength, it was impossible to achieve!

SHUAH!

Ye Chen continued to run forward, but in a flash, a black ball of light suddenly tore through space and pierced through his chest. Ye Chen instantly lost more than fifty HP at once!
