270 The Spellcaster of Curse That Counters Agility-Type Professionals (II)

‘So,’

‘I have to take care of his face in today’s match. I can’t crush him at the speed of light so as not to be hated by him in the future.’

‘After that,’

‘When the tournament is over,’

‘I can use the excuse that he’s strong to get close to him.’

‘A round of praise, in addition to the crushing strength, the initiative to express goodwill, and the rolling eyes of the people around… This guy will definitely see me as a close friend.’

‘At that time,’

‘I’ll be able to make good use of this guy’s connections and background.’

*Sigh*

‘That’s why mediocre people remain mediocre people. Such a good resource-rich person, instead of quickly thinking of a way to befriend him and squeeze out his value, they publicly belittled him in the group, calling him an idiot.’

‘I think you’re more of an idiot than this new kid.’

He didn’t have much ability, but he was quite arrogant. He looked down on this and that.

He deserved to be mediocre for life.

‘I really looked down on him… Only people like me who have both strength and background can look down on him and call him an idiot!’

‘What’s the name of the trash among the trash?’

‘Are you even worthy to call me that?’

After making up his plan, Xu Fu smiled at Lin Ye and said in a friendly manner,

“Brother, my name is Xu Fu, and I’m a curse spellcaster. I’d like to learn some of your combat techniques today. If I’ve offended you in any way, please forgive me.”

“Hehe.”

Even though Xu Fu looked down on this idiot who only knew how to scrape sand from the bottom of his heart,

However, he could not be lacking in the necessary friendliness.

Character setting.

‘This is the biggest reason why I, Xu Fu, can do so well at Tianqi University. All the teachers and senior students are friendly to me, and they don’t believe that anyone will be bullied or threatened by me.’

‘Aiya, hey.’

‘I feel like I’m a genius.’

‘If those mediocre people in the stands had half of my intelligence, they would not be so useless…’

Just as Xu Fu was immersed in his narcissistic thoughts, Lin Ye politely replied.

“I’m Lin Ye, and I’m a Priest. You don’t need to go easy on me. You just go all out,”

Xu Fu was speechless.

‘Tsk!’

‘This idiot is quite arrogant!’

‘Does he really think that he is invincible just because he defeated Chu Meng with his full agility skill?’

‘I don’t even know if your scraping damage can even reduce my HP by half!’

‘Do you not know?’

‘Was it not clear, Trash?’

Although Xu Fu didn’t like Lin Ye’s calm expression and how he looked like he had everything under his control, he suppressed his unhappiness and smiled to squeeze out all of Lin Ye’s.

“Alright,” he said.

“Don’t worry,”

“I’ll do my best.”

“Let’s start.”

After that, the match officially began, accompanied by the ringing of the bell outside the arena. Xu Fu immediately took out his Cursed Pearl weapon and cast the Curse Warlock’s debuff skill on Lin Ye.

However, he didn’t show his true strength, nor did he move. Instead, he deliberately created an opportunity for Lin Ye to attack. He stood there stupidly and started to chant a spell to count down the seconds.

Although the effects of high-level curse skills were outrageous, giving the enemy a large number of debuffs and causing a large amount of continuous damage, it required a few seconds of the countdown, and it was easy to be interrupted by crowd control skills during the period.

So,

A curse spellcaster would usually start with a low-level curse skill that could be cast instantly. When the opponent’s movements were restricted, giving them an opening, they would then cast a high-level curse skill and use all kinds of disgusting debuffs to exhaust the opponent to death.

For example, Xu Fu’s incantation-reading tactic.

He was either an idiot.

Or was he deliberately throwing the game?

It was obvious that Xu Fu was not a fool to be able to enter Tianqi University. At the very least, he would not do such a stupid thing during an important tournament.

In that case, he could only do it on purpose and go easy on him.

Lin Ye was speechless.

*Sigh*

‘Didn’t I tell you not to go easy?’

‘I was afraid that you guys would be arrogant and look down on my priest class, so I specifically reminded you guys before the match began.’

‘Forget it.’

‘I’ll just wait for him to finish his countdown.’

With that thought in mind, Lin Ye started to take steps back to increase the distance between himself and Xu Fu, just like how he fought against the Archer, Chu Meng, in the morning.

Xu Fu: “???”

‘No way…!’

‘Can’t you f*cking see that I’m casting my ultimate?’

‘Why didn’t you rush up to interrupt me?’

‘Even if you don’t have any crowd control skills and can’t interrupt me, you should at least hit me and take more HP from me, right?’

‘Why are you retreating?’

‘Is he crazy?’

The other audience members who didn’t know what was happening were also dumbfounded.

“F*ck!”

“This cruel hostility!”

“You play with that Archer by moving your position and messed with Chu Meng’s mentality,”

“But when you’re fighting against a curse spellcaster that counters your high mobility, yet you still take the initiative to retreat and even let the other party use his big move. Aren’t you thinking that you’re not going to die fast enough and giving yourself a boost?”

“What are you thinking?”

“Is your brain rotten?”

“I don’t believe that you can avoid a curse spellcaster’s AoE curse by moving around!”

Lin Ye ignored Xu Fu’s speechless babblings and the doubts of the audience. He continued to retreat until he reached the curse spellcaster’s best attack range. Then, he suddenly stopped.

‘Alright.’

‘This position was about the same.’

‘Next up, I’ll experiment to see if the special skill “Magic Breaker” that can block magic and curses can be imitated by my “Qi”.’

Imitation. Magic-Breaker!

Block!

[You’ve been cursed by Xu Fu’s worsening curse! Movement speed decreased by a medium margin! Its defense had decreased by a large margin! Attack power decreased by a medium degree!]

[The block is a success!]

[However, the skill did not take effect!]

[You’ve been cursed by Xu Fu’s worsening curse! Movement speed decreased by a medium margin! Its defense had decreased by a large margin! Attack power decreased by a medium degree! -35 HP! -35 HP! -35 HP!]

Lin Ye was speechless.

‘Fine, it seemed that my ‘Qi’ was unable to imitate this kind of special energy-type skill. It was just like how I was unable to use the elemental abilities that Mages used.’

‘Currently, I could only use skills that are related to Melee Physical Damage.’

‘For example, Knight’s Charge, Uppercut, Acupoint Striking, Block, Sweep Kick, Sand Dance, and so on.’

He thought.

Lin Ye raised his head and looked at Xu Fu, who was not far away.

Xu Fu also looked at him reflexively.

‘???’

‘Are you still waiting for me to cast the second curse skill?’

‘What the hell?’

‘Am I your lab rat?’

‘Or are you trying to play me for a fool?’

‘Like Chu Meng?’

‘Crawl to hell!’

‘Since you’re so arrogant, then I won’t waste time with you. Watch me go all out!’

Curse skill. Corrosion!

Curse skill. Pain!

Curse skill. Evil Fire!

…

Lin Ye’s heart tightened as he looked at the series of curse skills that were flying towards him. Like a small animal that sensed an earthquake, he pulled his body crazily, forcing him to dodge to the side and try to avoid the curse power that was coming at him.

‘Hehe.’

‘A sixth sense that could detect the arrival of danger.’

‘Those incoming abilities are really dangerous.’

‘Thinking back to the time when I first felt this power, it was when I was dealing with the primordial ‘Three Lost Guards’.’

‘Those three spear-wielding creatures had not only a strong body but also superb martial arts and breakneck speed. Like Zhao Zilong1, they could use a set of spear techniques to hit you without any power to fight back.’

Not to mention.

These three brothers were fighting together.

If you hit one of them, the other two would hide in the blind spot and go around to grope your butt. They would never fight you face to face.

They were simply the most immoral people in the world.

At that time, Lin Ye had already been tortured by the previous bosses for a long time. His normal swordsmanship had almost reached the level of a land sword God with the help of his terrifying talent.

If he were to fight them one by one, he would be able to kill the three guards so badly that even their mothers wouldn’t be able to recognize them.

However, if he was attacked by three powerful Professionals together, not only would he not be able to suppress the other party’s attributes, but the other party would even suppress him. Even a true sword saint would be defeated in seconds.

As the saying goes:

It’s like killing the old master with random punches.

At that time, Lin Ye was like that poor old master.

Fortunately, after hundreds and thousands of deaths, he had gradually unlocked his “sixth sense of danger”, a special ability that he didn’t know if it was a skill or something else.

It could sense danger and let the body react subconsciously.

This was how he managed to withstand the three “brothers’” lack of moral integrity.

Including the bosses after that, Lin Ye only used this bug-like perception ability to clear Primordial Hive in four months.

But unfortunately…

This ‘passive’ ability that was like a command was overpowered, but it was restricted by Lin Ye’s body and couldn’t avoid all the skills.

For example,

It was the curse skill that Xu Fu had just cast.

All of them were true. Once a lock-on skill was used, it would hit no matter what. Even flash couldn’t avoid them.

It was futile no matter how he dodged…
