105: Chapter 105 A Deadly Battle! Target Annihilation!

Japan, BHD, deep in the mountains of a certain scenic area...

A tall red Torii gate stood at the mountain entrance, and not far inside, an ancient temple could be seen, said to have a history spanning a hundred years (survival maintenance system complained: You had to cut off your own legacy, sigh, I should praise you, haha!).

Two swordsmen were sparring, with real swords and blades. The residual force from the Japanese Swords cut through the rocks of the rock garden and the old trees in the forest. The roar overshadowed the regular dripping and striking sounds of the 'Shishi-odoshi'.

"The challenge has been replied to, Uesugi-kun!" The slightly shorter Japanese swordsman wiped his beloved sword with a white cloth, excitedly telling his sparring opponent.

"A despicable challenge, not in line with the samurai spirit, but I quite like it!" The face of the slightly taller Japanese swordsman was obscured by the shadows of the mountain foliage, making his expression unreadable, but the playful tone that followed completely revealed his wicked taste.

The beautiful face of the young girl kneeling on the veranda was as pale as paper. Her black hair reached her waist, and she wore a faded Hihakama Miko Outfit. Her eyes were a rare Heterochromia—the left eye golden, the right eye blood-red. "I heard from Shimazu-kun that their captain is a girl, and she also has Heterochromia?" As she spoke, the girl's hand caressed her pretty face, making it feel as if she wasn't touching her own face, but rather the touch between lovers...

A ninja lay on the eaves, his face covered by a black cloth. He let out a strange laugh, "Hahahahaha, you should be called Fujiwara Chiyo now, right? You just fancy her body and want to make it your own. No need to beat around the bush." With that, he rolled over, found a comfortable position, took out the Wine Gourd from his waist, and took a swig...

A rumbling sound, like an earthquake, came from the Chozubachi. As the ground trembled, a Monk, fat as a mountain of flesh, entered their sight. He wore tattered Monk robes, and around his neck hung a string of prayer beads made from human finger bones. A strange 'benevolence' always hung on his smiling face.

"Kukai! Your smile won't work on us. You won't get a chance to break my bones. As for that guy on the veranda, at worst, we'll just find another body in a dungeon and swap. No big deal." The ninja's Wine Gourd hit the Monk's head, but the Monk's smile remained unchanged.

The Southeast Asia Paradise Lost Division, the Europe Paradise Lost Division, and the North and South America Paradise Lost Divisions all received the Level 1 war dungeon revenge challenge announcement from the Yazhou Paradise Lost Division. Paradise Lost would broadcast the battle live. Some were intrigued, others scorned it. Such a disgraceful challenge was inherently shameless!

Xia Kingdom, LN, BX, in the basement of the "Sweet Dream Flower Shop" next to the university...

Ryan poured the equipment He Xuan brought onto the table from his pocket. "The Coordination Office has pulled out all their trump cards!"

[Dragon Scale Soft Armor] (Immune to one fatal blow)

[Demon-Breaking Arrows x3] (Special effect against spirits)

[Blood Rage Potion] (+50% strength for 30 seconds, side effect: spitting blood)

Mia stared at the tactical board, drawing a red circle around "Fujiwara Chiyo": "Be careful of the miko. Japanese miko are always a bit eerie, and miko aren't necessarily female, although they might appear to be. I once played a game where the final boss was an ancient demon possessing a miko..."

At this point, Mia suddenly remembered something and looked down at her toes to ease her embarrassment, but she couldn't see them at all, which only made her more embarrassed.

Tuaner played with Mia's newly drawn [Golden Light Talisman]. "Don't worry, I'll make sure her bell can't even ring~ Oh, right. Those free combatants, occasionally bring them out for a stroll, consume them a bit, you know what I mean, Mia? A deathmatch dungeon is still a dungeon, after all, isn't it? The church doors are wide open for them, no problem, didn't they all say—God loves the world?"

Mia rubbed Tuaner's head, giving it a somewhat doting tap. She was still a little worried about Xiaoya's first battle and glanced at Sister Loran. Sister Loran clearly understood Mia's concern and nodded, indicating everything was foolproof. Mia's peripheral vision caught Sister Loran secretly re-tying the substitute doll she had tied to her own lower back back onto her daughter Xiaoya's skirt, and she felt a pang of sadness. She gritted her teeth; although the qualities of decisiveness and ruthlessness had been taken from her, love and unity would still make her and her teammates invincible!

Japan, BHD, deep in the mountains of a certain scenic area...

Uesugi Ryosuke leisurely wiped his demon sword. "Those Xia Kingdom nobodies, their average level isn't even Lv14."

"Don't be careless." Fujiwara Chiyo gently shook her kagura bell. "The data shows that woman controls some kind of [Church-type Abnormality]." In her hand, she was still fiddling with a strange, blood-stained camera.

"Kill her, and the abnormality will be ours!" Hattori Hanzo emerged from the shadows, excitedly licking the tip of his blade.

Kukai Numoku still wore his unchanging 'benevolent' smile, twisting his human bone prayer beads in his hand, and softly chanting scriptures with his head bowed.

Shimazu Hayato silently wiped his door-wide greatsword, [Fudo Myoo], with Shochu. "Just split them down the middle, don't worry."

Arena Opening!!

The Roman-style coliseum was shrouded in blood-red moonlight. The Japanese five-person team emerged from the east gate. In the center of the arena was a huge circular stone platform, and standing on it was—Bugs Bunny?!!

On the giant background LED screen on the arena wall, the previously confidential levels of both teams began to scroll:

Japanese Team:

1. Swordsman, Uesugi Ryosuke (Lv18)

2. Swordsman, Shimazu Hayato (Lv16)

3. Miko, Fujiwara Chiyo (Lv15)

4. Ninja, Hattori Hanzo (Lv14)

5. Monk, Kukai Numoku (Lv12)

Xia Kingdom Team:

1. Priest, Mia (Lv19)

2. Ranger, Jiang Tuaner (Lv15)

3. Paladin, Ryan (Lv15)

4. Druid, Loran (Lv14)

5. Ghost Whisperer, Luo Xiaoya (Lv4)

Adventurers watching from various regions exploded.

[Southeast Asia Adventurer, Nasi Lemak's Counterattack: What the heck is (Lv4)? Who can tell me how this level can cross the chasm of a war dungeon? Is this a Paradise Lost System bug?]

[Europe Adventurer, Holy Light Be With Me: Am I the only one who noticed that the Xia Kingdom team's professions are all from Europe? The Paradise Lost Coordination Office in the European branch should all be shot, reinstate the death penalty! Where have these guys let our talent drain to?? Tell me why??]

[North America Adventurer, Cowboy Not Busy: Oh my goodness, this is not gentlemanly. How can Japanese Adventurers lay hands on a (Lv4)? This is too dishonorable.]

[South America Adventurer, Voodoo No Poison: Why does the Japanese miko look a bit like a body taken over by voodoo magic? I need to rub my eyes and look again.]

[Africa Adventurer, Baobab Tree Not a Tree: I'm just watching, not talking. A bunch of noobs pecking at each other. Come try it here? Those who survive to adulthood are the greatest hunters.]

[Oceania Adventurer, Kangaroo's Boxing Gloves: Exactly! Africa Adventurers, first in individual competitions, but last in all team national wars. We can't commend you for anything except your intelligence, which is off the charts!]

(The battle, or rather, the deathmatch! Is about to begin!)
