Boom!

[-1!]

The wind blade landed on John.

However, only a pitiful damage number appeared above John’s head.

With the defense he possessed now, he was absolutely the person with the highest defense in the entire All-race Battlefield.

The Wingborn captain’s attack was no different from scratching an itch to him.

More importantly, the Heart of Thorns counter-damage talent John possessed had already stacked to a terrifying degree.

The moment the Wingborn captain’s attack struck John, the counter-damage erupted instantly.

[-12.77 million!]

The counter-damage was incomparably terrifying.

The Wingborn captain’s HP was instantly emptied.

However, at that moment, when the two teammates beside him saw this scene, their expressions changed drastically.

The feathers covering their bodies rapidly fell off, then swept toward the Wingborn captain, who was about to disappear.

In just a few breaths, the Wingborn captain, who had been on the verge of death and dissipation, was actually revived in an instant.

This was the Wingborn’s unique protective support talent.

No matter who died, the other two members could consume their origin power to revive them.

When John saw this, his eyes shifted slightly.

"Interesting. They actually have a talent like this."

...

At this moment, the revived Wingborn captain’s eyes were filled with horror. He retreated several steps in succession, staring at John in terror.

His heart was filled with disbelief.

"How could this be? My attack actually couldn’t break through his defense."

"Where did this human’s counter-damage talent come from? How can it be so terrifying?"

"Even with my HP, I couldn’t withstand a single counter-damage attack?"

"This definitely isn’t a human! There’s no way a human could be this strong!"

At this moment, the Wingborn captain felt both fear and relief.

He was relieved that he had brought two teammates with him into this battlefield.

Otherwise, if he had been here alone, he might have inexplicably died on the spot.

Even their captain had been frightened to such an extent, so there was naturally no need to mention the other two teammates.

Right now, all three of them were filled with extreme regret.

Why had they targeted this human who was pretending to be weak?

At this moment, John swept his gaze over the three of them, and his eyes gradually turned cold.

"I’ll be taking the points that delivered themselves to my door."

Two terrifying rays of light erupted from John’s body.

One was Deathlight, and the other was the light of dragonflame.

The two rays instantly blasted toward the two team members.

In the blink of an eye, two terrifying damage numbers appeared above their heads.

[-9.8 million!]

[-9 million!]

The two Wingborn team members did not even have time to let out a scream before their bodies gradually decayed or were burned away.

From beginning to end, John did not even move his feet.

Just like that, he easily killed the two Wingborn team members.

[You have killed Wingborn Contestant A. Points +1!]

[Congratulations, you have obtained 100 million EXP, 1 million gold coins, and 1 million Fame!]

[You have killed Wingborn Contestant B. Points +1!]

[Congratulations, you have obtained 100 million EXP, 1 million gold coins, and 1 million Fame!]

John’s points instantly jumped to 2.

But he was not satisfied with this. His gaze shifted and landed on the captain.

If he was not mistaken, the captain should have the most points on him.

In situations where multiple contestants from the same race entered the All-race Battlefield, they would usually give their points to the strongest person.

That way, they could ensure the strongest member had a place on the Points Ranking.

John immediately prepared to make his move and harvest the Wingborn captain’s points.

However, in the next moment, the Wingborn captain did something that even John found unexpected.

Thud!

With a muffled sound, the Wingborn captain dropped to his knees directly in front of John and began kowtowing frantically.

"My lord, please spare me! I am willing to serve you! Even if I have to become your servant, I am willing!"

Because of the All-race Battlefield’s special rules, John could understand the other party’s language.

John remained expressionless, while dragonflame gradually rose in his hand.

When the Wingborn captain saw this, he was so frightened that his soul almost left his body.

"My lord, spare me! I have already been in the All-race Battlefield for seven days, and I understand this place very well.

"I am still useful to you. Please don’t kill me!"

When John heard this, the dragonflame in his hand dimmed slightly.

He frowned and said, "I’ll give you ten seconds. If you can’t tell me a benefit that satisfies me, you’ll die all the same."

The Wingborn captain seized the opportunity and hurriedly spoke at an extremely fast pace.

"My lord, you may have just entered this place, so you probably don’t know much about the situation here.

"The All-race Battlefield settles once every month as a cycle.

"The person who has been here the longest has already been here for fifteen days.

"I only entered seven days ago, but I already know some of the rules here.

"For example, whenever you kill a contestant whose accumulated points exceed 10, your position will be exposed.

"That is because this place will notify all other contestants within a five-kilometer radius of your exact coordinates.

"So once you kill me, the other contestants will also receive the news and rush over immediately.

"That would be extremely disadvantageous for you."

After saying this, the Wingborn captain seemed to think that John would be afraid of this.

His tone unconsciously relaxed quite a bit.

After listening, John fell into thought.

"So it actually notifies all other contestants within a five-kilometer radius?

"In other words, your current points have already exceeded 10?"

The Wingborn captain nodded repeatedly.

"Yes. So for the sake of your safety, you absolutely must not attack.

"Otherwise, I cannot guarantee—"

Sizzle!

A terrifying dragonflame suddenly appeared in front of him.

Before the Wingborn captain could react, the feathers on his body were ignited by the dragonflame in the next instant.

He immediately let out a painful wail, and his HP rapidly hit rock bottom.

In just a few seconds, the Wingborn captain was completely reduced to ashes.

Even before his death, he could not understand why John still dared to attack him after learning the rule.

Logically speaking, anyone would choose to hide their name, keep a low profile, and develop steadily. They would not make a move here.

But this human simply refused to act according to common sense and directly made him die miserably in this place.

[You have killed the Wingborn captain. You have obtained 11 points!]

[Congratulations, you have obtained 1 billion EXP, 10 million gold coins, and 10 million Fame!]

[You have plundered the S-rank talent: Wingborne Aegis Physique!]

[Wingborne Aegis Physique]

[Effect]: Consume 1 billion EXP to revive one creature or player whose level is less than 10 levels below your own!

...

[Because this tournament contestant’s total points have reached 10, your exact coordinates and information will be announced to all other contestants within a five-kilometer radius!]

Listening to the notification ringing beside his ears, John remained expressionless.

He did not even bother moving. He simply stood where he was and waited for the other contestants within five kilometers to appear.

To John, this threat could not be considered a threat at all.

Instead, it was a reward.

Because John had already planned to hunt down other contestants. Once this announcement was made, it would instead actively attract the contestants he needed to hunt.

So the Wingborn captain had thought he could use this point to hold John in check.

But in reality, to John, it had instead become one of the reasons he had to kill him!

John stood in place and patiently waited for the other contestants to arrive.

He wanted to see just how many contestants within five kilometers would take the bait!
