Chapter 2459: Chapter 1109: Xia Hongyao Enters the Arena!

The atmosphere in the hall was heavy.

Ever since Lin Baici entered the Qin Palace Divine Ruins, his influence had surged, and with Dudek’s backing, even Chestnut medal, a Dragon-level warrior, dared not utter a word of opposition.

It was absolutely frustrating!

This Sword Saint hadn’t been humiliated like this since ascending to Dragon-level, and he was certainly feeling the pressure now.

Who would have thought that people could actually be so infuriated that their brain vessels felt like bursting?

"Huh? Can one person fight twice?"

Xia Hongyao was rather naive, not intending to trap Chestnut medal, but merely wondering whether it was possible to fight twice.

Chestnut medal hoped the king would dismiss him from the battlefield, but the king did not. Instead, he casually pointed, "Centurion!"

Immediately, a young eunuch stepped forward, holding a wooden fork, and placed a bronze soldier into the groove on the chessboard.

Smoke erupted and dissipated, revealing a bronze soldier, standing two meters tall, wearing a helmet and armor.

"A centurion is a military officer leading a hundred soldiers, you can also understand it as a Centurion!"

San Miyairi explained to Chestnut medal.

Chestnut medal had lost an arm and was not in good physical condition, so he didn’t want to engage in a battle where one would stabilize their position first, probe the enemy’s weaknesses, and then deliver a fatal blow.

Staring at the Centurion opposite him, Chestnut medal aggressively charged forward.

He charged, then drew his sword!

Swish!

Chestnut medal rushed past the Centurion.

Just as the Centurion raised his shield, his whole body stiffened, followed by bronze-colored blood spouting from his body, as he fell dismembered to the ground.

"Bravo!"

The king shouted and clapped.

Compared to a gory battle with swords clashing against flesh, this kind of instant kill was also quite spectacular and dazzling.

"Deploy a Left Division Chief!"

The king made another move.

Chestnut medal’s face turned dark.

He had fought quickly to preserve his energy, worried that Lin Baici would continuously order him around. But unexpectedly, it was the king who became interested in him.

What an unfortunate turn of events!

The Left Division Chief appeared.

This time, Chestnut medal learned his lesson. Instead of killing the opponent quickly, he opted for a defensive tactic.

"How strong are these monsters? Even Dragon-level warriors struggle against them?"

"Then if we enter the fight, aren’t we just fodder?"

"You’re overthinking it. We might not even qualify as fodder!"

Watching the tense battle, everyone’s expressions were bleak.

"Chestnut medal is trying to be sly!"

Xia Hongyao was furious, "He could clearly win quickly!"

Even among Dragon-level God Hunters, there are differences in combat power.

Dragon-level only represents a minimum standard, just reaching it is enough.

Someone like Chestnut medal is clearly a combat type, stronger in force than in strategy.

Though Dragon-level God Hunters cherish their lives, having achieved high social status, wealth, and power, who wouldn’t want to live longer?

Therefore, most Dragon-level God Hunters exploring God’s ruins prefer working in teams, usually partnering with one or two strategic minds.

Eaters of Gu Qingqiu and San Miyairi, who rely on their intelligence, are always prized in the Dragon-level Hunter circle.

Having brains, yet not being strong enough to pose a significant threat to Dragon-level hunters, means not worrying about internal betrayal, making such teammates very desirable.

Even Lin Baici, a genius with Eater God, hopes for more teammates like Gu Qingqiu and Xia Hongyao.

After all, life is singular, and having a talented teammate is additional insurance.

"He might fail trying to be clever!"

Gu Qingqiu glanced at the king, chuckling.

Chestnut medal took five minutes to kill the Left Division Chief.

’The timing this time should be acceptable, right?’

Chestnut medal was internally mumbling, preparing to check the king’s expression to see if he was satisfied, when a loud bang was heard.

The king slammed his palm hard on the table.

"Are you mocking me?"

The king was very angry.

He played chess for fun, and this civilian executed a dazzling instant kill, which was visually stunning, so the king wanted to see it again. But what had this civilian done?

He had started defending!

How absurd!

"Deploy a Court Commander, a Left Division Chief, a Right Division Chief, and a ten-man squad."

The king snorted coldly, "Turn him to pulp!"

The young eunuch saw the king was angry and dared not hesitate, quickly deploying the chess pieces.

Chestnut medal turned green upon hearing this.

It was over!

Things had backfired!

Such a large group of enemies was certainly difficult to handle!

Chestnut medal glanced at Lin Baici and Dudek. Neither had any intention of advising the king to let any more members join the battle, clearly determined to push him to his limits.

Since you are heartless, I will be unscrupulous!

"King!"

Chestnut medal clasped his hands, "I’ve fought three rounds already, and now it’s one against many, isn’t that unfair?"

"I’m not afraid to fight. I just want to..."

Before Chestnut medal could express his desire to ask for more teammates, to offer a thrilling battle spectacle, the king interrupted him with a roar.

"I don’t care about fairness. I just want excitement!"

The king engaged in chess, not for victory, but for the thrill of battle.

Just like watching an action blockbuster, logic and depth aren’t necessary, only the thrill.

The battle began, one against thirteen! 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

The Court Commander, fully armored like an iron can, charged first, flanked by the Left and Right Division Chiefs, protecting its sides with a group of soldiers following behind.

Some soldiers even carried crossbows.

Knowing he couldn’t avoid it, Chestnut medal resolved to fight fiercely.

Using his rich combat experience, he first took a big step, rushing to confront the Savior Marquis.
