CHAPTER 423: CHAPTER 402: FIRE DRAGON SOARING TO THE HEAVENS

"Famous Clan Handsome?"

Zimmerman looked at the name above Handsome and mocked:

"Are all you Hua Country people this ’confident’?"

Listening to Zimmerman’s clearly sarcastic words, Handsome smiled slightly as if he didn’t catch the meaning:

"Maybe I’m an exception."

"I’ve always been confident in handling dogs."

While speaking, the two of them were already standing at the edge of the safe zone.

Once they stepped out of the row of green bricks on the ground, outside would be the free combat zone.

Behind them had already gathered players from various battle zones, whispering to each other.

Some of the later arriving players, after hearing the discussions around them, quickly understood the story.

Among these voices, the vast majority were clamoring:

"Kill this Hua Country idiot."

"Don’t think that just because there’s a Feng Hua, you’re invincible. Give this kid a hard lesson for me."

"Go Zimmerman, take him down!"

...

Such were the words, and there was almost no support for Handsome.

Even a few Hua Country War Zone players chose silence amidst the overwhelming noise.

However, choosing silence did not mean backing down, because they firmly believed Handsome would definitely show them that the Hua Country War Zone is not to be insulted by anyone.

Just then, a man dressed as a knight named Keruk walked between the two and said:

"Allow me to introduce myself, I am Keruk from the Russian War Zone."

This man, at least 1.9 meters tall, looked at both of them and said:

"For the sake of fairness, I think you might need a referee, and I can just do this job. You don’t mind if I act as your referee, do you?"

Handsome looked at him, shrugged indifferently, and said:

"I don’t mind."

Keruk looked at Zimmerman, who naturally had no objections, looked at Keruk, and smiled:

"Oh, of course, however..."

Zimmerman looked at Handsome beside him, the contempt on his face was obvious, and said:

"This is probably the most boring duel you’ve ever witnessed."

After speaking, Zimmerman had already stepped out of the safe zone, heading to one side.

Handsome moved to the other side, chuckled once, and agreed:

"He’s right."

Afterward, Handsome and Zimmerman stopped at a position about ten meters apart, while the maximum distance for a Mage (public) skill was eight meters.

Keruk stood between the two and said:

"Before we start, let me make this clear."

"When one side’s life value falls below 10% or dies, it counts as a loss."

"Understand?"

Both of them nodded to indicate they understood.

After all, it was just a duel, not a life-and-death battle, determining the winner was enough.

Of course, if someone ’accidentally’ killed the opponent, it was within the rules, and no one would say anything.

After briefly explaining the rules, Keruk then said again:

"I think you can start preparing your best skills now."

As soon as the words fell, the Flame Staff in Handsome’s hand was already rising with raging flames.

Opposite him, the Magic Staff in Zimmerman’s hand also emitted a glaring and dazzling light.

It was clear both had already started preparing their magic at the same time.

In the safe zone, hundreds of eyes stared at the two in the arena. Under Keruk’s indication, the noise gradually quieted.

Keruk raised his hand to signal:

"Prepare!"

Although this duel had not yet begun, perhaps due to longstanding prejudice from Western countries against Hua Country, at this moment, most of the onlookers were already imagining the scene of Handsome being beaten.

Then Keruk started the countdown:

"3"

"2"

"1"

A sudden burst of enthusiastic shouting erupted from the crowd, with nearly everyone shouting excitedly:

"Zimmerman, kill him!"

"Kill him!"

A loyal friend couldn’t hold back any longer, followed by a hysterical shout:

"Go Handsome!"

The players from the Hua Country War Zone joined in the chorus of shouts:

"Go!"

At this moment Keruk already gave the order:

"Start!"

Keruk quickly retreated back into the safe zone.

But what surprised everyone was that Zimmerman had already attacked Handsome in the distance before Keruk even said "start":

"Go to hell, Hua Country chick."

This scene directly stunned all the players in the Hua Country War Zone, who were furious in the safe zone:

"This is not fair, he attacked early!"

"Cheating!"

"Be careful, Handsome!"

Even Keruk did not anticipate this. But by the time everyone realized it, it was already too late.

Zimmerman pointed his Magic Staff at Handsome:

"Thunder Shock"

In the blink of an eye, several bolts of lightning descended from the sky, directly engulfing Handsome, continuously striking the location where Handsome stood:

"Bang bang bang~"

Watching Handsome being engulfed by the dense Power of Thunder, everyone was speechless, astonished at the unexpected scene.

Everyone felt a shock in their hearts; everything happened too suddenly. They also didn’t expect Zimmerman’s magic range could reach ten meters!

By the time someone reacted, Zimmerman had already raised his hand again to launch a second skill at that area:

"Thunder Net Coverage"

A net woven by thunder struck down from the sky, rapidly covering that thunder zone:

"Crackling"

The chilling Power of Thunder made everyone’s scalp tingle, further eliminating any chance for Handsome to escape.

Everyone stared dumbfounded as Handsome’s location turned into a thunder zone, dust swirling around.

At this moment, the thought spontaneously came to everyone’s mind: one-hit KO!

They were confident Zimmerman would definitely win, but they didn’t expect Zimmerman could win so ’easily,’ albeit a bit disgracefully...

However, apart from the players in the Hua Country War Zone, no one cared about this point.

Because they only saw Handsome being ’KO’d,’ Zimmerman won!

No one believed Handsome could survive such terrifying skills, including the players in the Hua Country War Zone.

...

After casting two skills, Zimmerman did not attack again, but stood at his spot with a face full of pride, looking at his ’masterpiece.’

He was confident that this Hua Country little mage couldn’t possibly be unscathed under the combination of his two skills.

However, when the thunder receded and the dust settled, everyone was once again stunned by the scene before them!!!

Handsome was standing safely in place, looking at Zimmerman with a smile and teasing:

"This... is your strength?"

At that moment, everyone felt a chill down their spines, taking a deep breath.

They were all stunned at the sight of this calm and composed figure:

He was unharmed? How could this be possible!

Zimmerman looked at Handsome as if he had seen a ghost:

"How can you be unharmed?"

Though shocked, Zimmerman, being a high-level player from the United States, quickly adjusted his mindset, ready to strike again.

However, at this moment, everyone felt a wave of heat emanating from Handsome, followed by Handsome’s light chuckle:

"Now it’s my turn, right?"

A furious dragon of flames suddenly soared into the sky from Handsome’s body:

"Roar~"

The roar of a giant dragon echoed, and everyone stared in shock at the fiery dragon:

"What skill is this?"

At this moment, Handsome pointed angrily at Zimmerman:

"Go!"

"Fire Dragon Soaring to the Heavens!"
