Volume 2: The Church of Light Chapter 184 Golden Concert Hall
Everyone stared at each other for a while, and then the middle-aged leader of the Nightingale District came out. He was humble and looked polite: "Miss Xue, let me learn from your tricks."
The woman surnamed Xue looked indifferent and said, "Finally, there is someone who is a little courageous. Please come in. I will restrain my strength."
The others had blank expressions on their faces, but their eyes were gloomy, and it was obvious that they were unhappy to hear such words.
"Zhao Rui from the Nightingale District has reached the limit of the second state. He is a veteran ruin slayer who has been in charge of the Nightingale District for 8 years..."
Yue Ling's eyes flickered as she stared at the elegant-looking middle-aged man.
When she first emerged in the Sleepless District, the latter was already a two-state powerhouse in the Nightingale District. He was extremely powerful, leading the team to sweep across the area, and also came to the aid of the Sleepless District, strangling a B-level Xu, which left a deep impression on her.
"The limit of the second state..." The young man next to him changed his expression slightly. When he stepped into the second state, he also learned all kinds of information about the second state.
The combat power of the second state mainly comes from three points.
ability.
The degree of strength.
Ruins of the army.
Both the Xu soldiers and their abilities are unknown. Abilities are fixed, while the Xu soldiers are the foundation. If the two are not much different, the victory or defeat will be determined by the degree of Xu power and combat experience.
If one masters the Jixu state, it will be even more difficult. Unless one's ability is extremely abnormal and can crush the opponent with his ability, it is basically impossible to win.
Without a real confrontation, it is rare for the two states to be confident that they can definitely kill the other.
Unless you have investigated the opponent's abilities in advance and confirmed their ability to suppress them.
Under the calm gaze of the queen ant, the two came to the center of the hall. In order to avoid destroying the hall, they mobilized their virtual power and escaped into the virtual world inside the hall.
But it does not affect other people's observation. It is only in the first level of the Xu world, even if it is in its initial state, it can be seen through the Xu Eye.
The woman surnamed Xue didn't say much. Without any greeting, she just said "please" and then drew her sword and walked out.
Zhao Rui was not polite either. He was the first to draw his sword and kill the woman named Xue.
whoosh!
His figure was as fast as the wind, more than ten meters passed in an instant, and the blade suddenly fell.
But Xu Shen could see that this knife was obviously a test.
The woman surnamed Xue's eyes turned gray, and she opened and closed them. When the blade approached, she suddenly stepped forward. Her figure was as nimble as a rabbit, and she slashed at Zhao Rui's arm with her sword, quickly, accurately and ruthlessly.
Zhao Rui smiled and quickly drew his sword.
puff!
A scratch appeared on the arm of the woman surnamed Xue's combat uniform. Although it did not cut her, she was hit.
Everyone was surprised. They saw that Zhao Rui had clearly put away the knife and did not touch the other person at all...but the woman surnamed Xue was injured!
Xu Shen narrowed his eyes and stared at the two of them intently.
Soon, his eyes flashed and he saw a very faint shadow.
The woman surnamed Xue took a few steps back and saw the scratches on her arm. The indifference in her eyes subsided a little. This was just a sparring in front of the hall. If a real fight broke out, the opponent would most likely aim at the neck instead of the arm.
This means that she is in danger.
The woman surnamed Xue stared at Zhao Rui and said softly, "Very good ability."
Zhao Rui smiled and said, "Ms. Xue should know that my ability is 'light', which is the manipulation system."
"It's the first time we met, and it's really good..." The woman surnamed Xue had long known the situation of other second-states in each branch from the information of the General Administration. Except for some new second-states who have not yet shown their abilities, old second-states like Zhao Rui have had many mission experiences and have long shown their abilities.
"Miss Xue, don't you want to let me see your abilities?" Zhao Rui said with a smile.
The woman surnamed Xue said softly, "I'm afraid something will happen to you."
After saying that, he attacked again with the sword in hand.
Zhao Rui also swung his knife, but the woman surnamed Xue suddenly swung down before his blade reached him. Surprisingly, there was a clanging sound in the air and Zhao Rui's arm trembled, as if the blade was hit.
There was a hint of surprise in Zhao Rui's eyes. After just one confrontation, he was able to determine the true position of his blade?
He actually has two swords, and the other one has been made invisible by light distortion.
Zhao Rui did not stop and attacked again with a serious face. At the moment of the confrontation, there was a sudden flash of light. Although the woman surnamed Xue was prepared and closed her eyes in time, she still made a slight mistake and a scratch appeared on her shoulder again.
She was injured twice in two encounters.
The woman surnamed Xue opened her eyes and stared at Zhao Rui in front of her. Fighting with the opponent meant that she had to give up her vision, otherwise the strong light or light changes that appeared at any time would put her in danger.
But since she was fighting without her vision, no matter how quickly she adapted, it would be difficult for her to defeat a mature and experienced two-state opponent with her eyes closed.
"It's true that he should not be underestimated..." the woman surnamed Xue sighed.
Zhao Rui smiled and said, "Ms. Xue is admirable."
He was speaking from the heart. The second time he attacked, he aimed at the throat, but the opponent dodged it and only injured his shoulder. If it had been someone else, the fight would have been over.
The woman in front of me has an awe-inspiring sense of combat .
"You have to be prepared..." The woman surnamed Xue stared at him: "I may not be able to fully control my abilities, so don't be careless... and kill you by mistake."
As she spoke, there seemed to be sounds around her.
It's music.
At the same time, everyone saw that the light in the hall around them seemed to become brighter, with a hint of gold in the brightness.
An amazing scene appeared. The hazy golden particles formed into vague figures, like an elegant band, surrounding the woman named Xue.
There are violinists, cellists, and double bass players.
The three musicians are a graceful woman, a middle-aged person, and an old man.
Beautiful music floats out along with the string music.
This beautiful scene is shocking.
As the music played, Zhao Rui suddenly felt a tingling sensation on his face. He reached out to touch it and saw bloodstains on his face. All the numb places were cracks.
Blood is flowing!
In an instant, his face was covered in blood and he looked extremely miserable.
Although the wound was not deep, Zhao Rui already felt fear. He suddenly released his ability, covering the area within ten meters, forming a dark cage.
Light blocking!
In the darkness, only Zhao Rui could see the enemy's position, and he suddenly rushed over.
But at this moment, a heavy sound suddenly appeared in the golden music shrouded in darkness.
Like the evening drum and the morning bell, it vibrates in my heart.
Boom! Boom!
Along with the drumbeats, one low sound after another rang out, and in the surrounding blocked area with a diameter of 10 meters, the darkness was fluctuating like waves, and it seemed to be trembling and collapsing.
As the fifth drumbeat sounded, the darkness shattered, and the cracked area inside could be seen, and the scene emerging.
Next to the three musicians was a drummer with a hunched body and wearing strange clothes.
The drummer was beating the golden drum stand in front of him, while on the other side, Zhao Rui's body froze in place, covering his head and kneeling on the ground.
Blood gushed out of his mouth, nose and ears, and his face was covered in blood. He looked completely different from his previous gentle and elegant appearance, and looked extremely miserable.
The golden light in the eyes of the woman surnamed Xue gradually faded, and the golden band playing in the surrounding hall also gradually dissipated.
The eyes of those playing figures seemed to be glowing with ghostly lights. They stared at the fallen Zhao Rui with a half-smile, and then dissipated like a golden breeze until they disappeared into nothingness.
The battle is over.
Everyone was shocked to see Zhao Rui, who was the only one left kneeling on the ground with a look of pain on his face.
What are the abilities of this woman named Xue?
Could that strange vocal music be a means of attack?
"This should be a special ability... the most bizarre type of ability."
Many of the two-states had solemn eyes, and looked at the cold and arrogant woman with more fear. Although the latter showed her ability, they still couldn't know what this ability was. They could only see that the method of attack seemed to be a piece of music being played?
"This is my ability, Golden Concert Hall..." The woman surnamed Xue had a dazed look in her eyes, as if she had just come back to her senses from a beautiful piece of music. She sighed and said, "It's a pity that I can't play the teacher's music perfectly..."
Xu Shen's eyes flickered. He had tried to cover his ears during the performance, but found that the music still penetrated into his mind.
Cannot be isolated.
This seems to be some kind of spiritual power penetrating.
He thought of what Mo Xiaoxiao said, that the core sequence of the high-ranking clans in the inner city all had special abilities.
At that time, Xu Shen didn't care too much about it, but now he feels that this special ability is very different from other abilities.
Even if he went into battle, Xu Shen was not sure of victory. After all, they were just bystanders and had not personally experienced the opponent's attack capabilities.
"Help him get treatment."
The queen ant's calm and elegant voice came.
A royal guard in silver armor walked out from the back of the hall, came to Zhao Rui, helped him up, and was surprised to find that the other's pupils had ulcerated.
He held Zhao Rui's palm and used his ability to reconstruct and regenerate his flesh and blood. Soon, Zhao Rui's eardrums, pupils, ulcerated tongue in his mouth, etc. all gradually regenerated.
The pain also subsided.
Zhao Rui opened his eyes, and the recovery of his senses made him feel like he was reborn.
Although it was a sparring match, he felt as if he had died once before. Looking at the cold and arrogant woman of about twenty-four or twenty-five years old in front of him, the previous trace of disdain in his heart turned into deep fear.
He is able to be so arrogant, he really has the ability to do so.
No wonder even Mr. Zhao was squeezed out.
"Who else?"
The woman surnamed Xue looked at the others with indifferent eyes.
Everyone looked at each other and no one said a word. Even though the opponent's ability had been exposed, they were still unsure.
Xu Shen glanced at the Queen Ant and saw that she did not stop him. As the Queen Ant, she must be aware of this woman's abilities, but she allowed her to be so arrogant. Did she want her to test everyone's results?
If that's the case, it might be normal that I can't beat her.
When selecting the personal guards, in addition to combat power, other aspects are obviously also taken into consideration, otherwise this woman would have been chosen directly.
When Xu Shen was thinking about whether to go up and give it a try, the queen ant seemed to see that no one had the desire to challenge, so she asked the woman named Xue to step down first.
Without the huge obstacle of the woman surnamed Xue, everyone else breathed a sigh of relief. Then another middle-aged man from the Nightingale District led the team and challenged everyone to a fight.
This time the others did not retreat and went into battle one after another.
