Chapter 576 Pressure
Even Stephen looked flabbergasted. That was his finishing move. Shouldn't the fight be over? When he looked down to kick Liam's corpse, only then he noticed that the corpse was no longer there.
"So your daggers are legendary weapons?" A voice sounded behind him while at the same time, a dozen sword slashes landed on his back.
The thief immediately moved back, dodging most of the attacks. "You are a cockroach, aren't you? You just won't die." After retreating, he bounced back towards Liam once again to attack him.
As a thief class player, he was fully able to demonstrate his speed and agility. He wove in and out of the darkness and brandished his two daggers flawlessly.
However…
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!
Every single one of his attacks was still blocked. Liam's raw speed matched his and was even slightly faster than his. How was this possible?
But Stephen was not done yet. He hadn't even begun yet. He vanished into thin air and concealed himself to get a better start.
He then once again launched at Liam from a dead angle where he wouldn't be able to react properly. The pair of daggers danced in the air viciously, and their gleam contained a new color.
That's right. This time they were not merely daggers, they were poisoned daggers. Now all he needed was one hit, and Liam would 100% be down after that.
Stephen huffed and sent out one blow after another, but this time as well… it just wasn't enough. Every single attack was either blocked or dodged.
"If I am correct, your weapon shouldn't just be legendary grade, it also possesses a spirit, a serpentine spirit?" Liam smirked.
Stephen's movement, for the first time, faltered. Not only was he able to make any advances, but he was also being studied by the opponent.
He could suddenly feel the pressure of Liam's gaze suffocating him. It was like being cornered by a beast waiting to strike. Sweat dripped down his forehead.
"Are you going crazy? You must be very desperate to talk crazy shit like this?" He blurted out.
The plan was to make Liam feel defeated and desperate even before this match began, and he also looked the part. So far, everything seemed fine, but now Stephen was beginning to question everything.
Who was the one that was getting pushed back here?
He didn't want to let this fight prolong any longer because the stakes were too high! He couldn't lose here! His life depended on it!
Clang! He tossed his daggers up and caught them back, gripping them in a very different manner compared to before. Now we will see who is the one getting pushed back.
He blasted forth from his spot with his daggers dripping with poison and unleashed a flurry of attacks at Liam. The two daggers danced mysteriously. Their movements were profound.
This was the same technique that he had used back on the battleground, and he was quite confident about it. No one in the game right now would be able to figure out his technique. Not even Liam!
This was because… the technique that he had obtained was an S-rank assassin class technique which contained several powerful skills that could do critical damage in the blink of an eye.
"Die!" He gritted his teeth and slashed away at full speed. This was it. There would be no more surprises.
As he rained down the attacks on Liam, once again person he was attacking disappeared and reappeared at another spot. "Damn it, what is this? Some sort of clone technique?"
Stephen continued to attack. However, each time Liam slipped away like an eel, only leaving behind after images. "How many times can you do this?"
He did not give up and continued attacking recklessly. His technique was ultimately supreme, there was simply no way for Liam to figure it out.
Stephen retreated and clashed, retreated and clashed, retreated and clashed, but the match continued going on. The fight that should have been finished in under a minute had now gone on for three whole minutes.
And Stephen was running out of air! Thief class players possessed amazing burst potential, but they were not suited for long-drawn combat.
This was mainly because the skills put tremendous pressure on their body, taking a significant toll. The better a technique, the better the toll.
And considering that Stephen was obviously using a high-grade technique, he was reaching his limit quickly.
The guy's movements started to slow down, and his attacks began faltering. He needed to end this now. So he threw all caution to the wind and started attacking more recklessly.
Liam grinned. This was what he had been waiting for. Up until now, he boosted his speed and agility using his mana core and continued to play defense. Finally, his window of opportunity had arrived!
"You know it's not enough just to have a good weapon or technique. You need to master it." Liam's voice echoed in the silent cave where only sounds of daggers could be heard. "It is my turn now."
BOOM! He conjured a huge fireball and sent the little thief flying away. This single attack was enough to stop his movements and blast him away.
And right at this critical juncture, another creature in the cave also opened her mouth.
Fire blast! Luna sent her attack as well. Liam asked her to hide, and she did, but now it was time to attack.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Several fire-type attacks started flying left and right in the cave, lighting up the whole place. Finally, things were visible to the players gathered around the PVP tower.
Alex looked at the display anxiously. Even Mia clenched her robes. This was because she had personally faced this opponent, and he was not the usual enemy.
"Mia, will he win?"
"I don't know."
The two sisters and every other player in Yleka city watched the screen as the fireworks finally calmed down, and a burning corpse could be seen on the ground.
And next to his burning corpse was a man with a fox curled around his neck. Liam had won!
