A lucky charm!
"How is this possible!!"
In the Duel Arena lounge, Battle Dragon, having just resurrected from death, was filled with disbelief.
He had actually... been one-shotted by a single arrow!
Recalling his arrogant words before the battle, Battle Dragon felt so embarrassed that he wanted to use his toes to dig a two-bedroom apartment into the ground and move into it.
It was laughable that he had even called the other party an ant before the battle.
Now it seemed that he was the one who was the ant.
At this moment, in Battle Dragon's mind, Chen Ming's status had jumped directly from the "ant" level to the "do not provoke" level.
"To be able to one-shot me so easily, his strength is absolutely unimaginable."
"It's very likely a powerhouse intentionally smurfing."
As he muttered to himself, a surging fighting spirit burned in Battle Dragon's eyes.
As the young master of the Dragon Kin Race, he was a famous battle maniac among the sub-Dragon Kin.
Born to fight, fighting until death!
Not only that, the talent he awakened was the SSS-grade [God of War].
[God of War]
[Quality: SSS-grade.]
[Effect 1: Every time you fight, you can gain additional attribute improvements; the stronger the combat target, the more terrifying the attribute improvement gained.]
[Effect 2: You are a born God of War; every battle is guaranteed to yield gains, and every death will bring a great improvement in attributes.]
[Effect 3: For every 1 second of combat time, your damage will increase by 1%.]
[Effect 4: When you defeat an enemy you consider invincible, you can receive generous rewards. Current defeat target: Calamity.]
[Introduction: Born to fight, fighting until death!]
Battle Dragon's talent belonged to the classic conceptual, idealistic type of talent.
And at this moment, under the influence of psychological factors, Chen Ming had suddenly become the goal for Battle Dragon to surpass.
"As long as I defeat him, my strength will definitely see a huge improvement."
"By then, during the Tier 3 Advancement Trial, I might be able to challenge the abyssal level difficulty."
Muttering to himself, Battle Dragon decisively sent another battle invitation to Chen Ming.
And sent a private message: "Brother, can you accompany me in another fight? It won't be for free; I'll give you one million gold coins per match."
The message was sent, but there was no reply from the other side.
"Is the price not satisfactory?"
"Right, how could a powerhouse like this lower himself for a mere million gold coins."
Battle Dragon was immersed in self-PUA, and after pondering for a moment, he sent another message to Chen Ming.
"Brother, I was being stingy just now."
"Accompany me in a fight, and I'll give you one hundred million gold coins directly."
Battle Dragon directly offered a sky-high price.
As descendants of the dragons, although their bloodline was thin, the Dragon Kin Race inherited part of the dragon clan's legacy after the dragons disappeared.
And it is well known that the dragon clan had an almost paranoid obsession with shiny gold coins.
Before the dragon clan disappeared, they were recognized as the richest in "Eternal".
There were even rumors that the wealth possessed by the dragon clan could even buy half of "Eternal".
The Dragon Kin Race, having inherited part of the dragon clan's legacy, although not as wealthy as the vanished dragon clan, possessed unimaginable wealth as well.
Especially since a freak who didn't like fighting but only loved business appeared within the Dragon Kin Race a hundred years ago, causing the Dragon Kin Race's wealth to rise even further.
Now, they faintly had the trend of becoming the richest race in "Eternal".
As the young master of the Dragon Kin Race, for Battle Dragon, a mere one hundred million gold coins was just pocket change.
On the other side, Chen Ming quickly ended the battle in a flash.
The opponent was an assassin player from the Orc Race, as everyone knows.
Assassin classes are the bane of Rangers.
Under normal circumstances, if a Ranger encounters an assassin enemy, they basically only have the fate of being slaughtered.
But Chen Ming was clearly not a normal Ranger player.
Not to mention anything else, once that health bar of several billion was revealed, it was enough to make all assassin players of the same tier feel despair.
Chen Ming only used one arrow throughout the entire process to easily resolve the battle.
[Current Rank: Platinum. Tier 1 (45 Victory Points).]
"The further you go, the harder it is to raise your rank in the Duel Arena."
"Fortunately, winning streaks provide additional Victory Point bonuses."
Chen Ming muttered, and just as he was about to start the next duel, a private message from Battle Dragon was sent over.
Chen Ming glanced at it, and a strange look immediately appeared on his face.
One hundred million gold coins for one match? The Dragon Kin Race is indeed extravagant and wealthy.
For this kind of gold coin delivery, Chen Ming naturally wouldn't refuse. He immediately agreed to Battle Dragon's challenge.
A milky white pillar of light descended from the sky. When Chen Ming opened his eyes again, he had arrived once more at the familiar temple ruins.
However, this time, there were no observing players around. At the other end of the temple ruins, Battle Dragon was poised and ready.
"Calamity, thank you for giving me the chance to challenge you again. This time, I will give it my all."
In Battle Dragon's dark golden vertical pupils, an intense fighting spirit flashed.
Chen Ming just calmly gripped the [shore of the other side. god] in his hand, proficiently took out a lightning-attribute arrow from the [elemental quiver] on his back, and then began to charge.
"Just remember to transfer the money."
The moment Chen Ming's voice fell, the ten-second countdown ended. [Duel Start].
Accompanied by the prompt sound, Battle Dragon rushed out fiercely like an arrow off a bowstring.
However, this time he didn't rush directly at Chen Ming, but charged in an S-shaped curve, attempting to use this to dodge Chen Ming's arrow.
"Useless little tricks."
Chen Ming shook his head, then released the arrow in his hand. "Swish!!"
The arrow flew out, the terrifying thunder rubbing against the air, emitting bursts of bird chirping sounds.
The familiar crisis of death lingered in Battle Dragon's heart; his dark golden vertical pupils shrank slightly as the lightning-flashing arrow was infinitely magnified in his field of vision.
"Thwack!!" Accompanied by a piercing sound, the ending was without any surprise. Battle Dragon was instantly one-shotted.
[Battle End, Private Duel, will not increase Victory Points.]
[You have obtained the prize for this battle — Gold Coins + 100,000,000.]
Two consecutive prompts popped up before his eyes, and Chen Ming's figure disappeared from the spot.
On the other side, in the Duel Arena lounge. Battle Dragon, who had recovered from death, had lingering fear of death in his pupils.
"One-shotted... again!!" "Continue!!"
Taking a deep breath, Battle Dragon initiated another challenge to Chen Ming. Still with one hundred million gold coins as payment.
However, this time Battle Dragon learned to be smart; he changed the Duel Arena mode to [Balanced Mode].
In [Balanced Mode], the attributes of both sides of the battle would be forcibly pulled to the same level.
"Interesting! I've encountered a money-giving boy."
Chen Ming looked at the challenge before him, a smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of his mouth, and he immediately agreed to the challenge. As for the Balanced Mode, it had almost no effect on him.
After all, in [Balanced Mode], both sides' attributes would be leveled, but skills would not be affected.
The [Source of All Evil]'s poison damage was now over one hundred thousand, and after stacking to the maximum level, the damage per second reached an astonishing three million plus. It simply wasn't something a Tier 2 player could withstand.
