Chapter 82

In the personal king's battle, what stands out is the individual's ability on the battlefield. Those who dare to participate in the king's battle are all confident in their skills and equipment.

In the battlefield mode, experience can also be earned, allowing for leveling up. Therefore, if you are a natural battle enthusiast, you can level up here, although there is no equipment to drop. It's worth noting that in the low-end king, slaughter, and capture-the-point modes, the equipment level is based on the player's level when they enter the battlefield, which remains unchanged. However, in the siege mode, the system adjusts both players' equipment and levels to an appropriate level. Otherwise, the battlefield mode would only be about equipment and levels, not skill, which would undoubtedly greatly reduce the game's fun.

However, even the first three modes have limitations. For example, in the king's mode, levels 31 to 35 are one stage, and levels 36 to 40 are another stage, separated by level to prevent a level 30 player from suddenly facing a level 100 player, which would be impossible to win! Of course, the battlefield is not open to low-level beginners; players must be at least level 20 to enter.

Yang Ye was assigned to the 31-35 level stage, where most players had already completed their first class change, and those who hadn't had mostly upgraded to equipment above level 30.

Ignoring the bustling crowd, the noise, and the team-up requests, Yang Ye directly spoke to Hu Ke and then chose the "King Mode" with the golden border, confirming it!

[**System: You have chosen to enter the battlefield—Personal King's Battle! The King's Battle tests individual ability. Please rely on your own efforts to survive. The first place will receive a generous reward! Time until entry: 6 minutes and 22 seconds. Current waiting players: 5,831!**]

With 6 minutes left, the number of waiting players was approaching 6,000, and more were joining every second. These 6,000 were not all the players in the King's Battle; that would be too few. The 6,000 were just for one battlefield. The exact number of battlefields open was probably only known by the game operators.

Time ticked by, and Yang Ye was getting bored. He pulled out his communicator and started chatting with Taozi—

"Taozi, which mode did you choose?"

"Slaughter mode. Damn, I thought it meant killing everyone, but it turns out it's divided into two teams, and you only kill the other team! Damn, I should have chosen King's Battle."

"How's the military points? How many?"

"I don't know yet. This is one of the earlier matches, and it's not over yet. I'll try King's Battle later. What did you choose?"

"King's. I need to earn military points quickly to buy land!" Yang Ye said excitedly.

"Alright, I'll do it too!" Taozi hung up, apparently getting back into the action.

To earn military points quickly, one must choose the mode that offers the fastest points. Fortunately, with the teleportation arrays between main cities, guild leaders had chosen their respective main cities to settle in. Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult for Yang Ye to snatch a shop from their grasp.

By the way, he hadn't even asked who owned the Rainfall City territory.

[**System: The battlefield is ready. The charge has sounded. Advance for your honor!**]

The system's dramatic prompt appeared again, followed by a countdown. After three seconds, Yang Ye and Lilina vanished from their spot.

[**System: You have entered the ruins of Deva Ancient City. This area is full of danger. Please be cautious. Good luck!**]

[**System: King Mode activated. In the next hour, try to kill as many enemies as possible. Death does not drop equipment or experience. You will respawn in a random area after 3 seconds.**]

He had entered!

Yang Ye was excited. He turned around and found Lilina still standing behind him, smiling foolishly.

Lilina could enter the battlefield too!

Yang Ye, thrilled, rushed over and picked up Lilina, kissing her on the cheek. Lilina giggled happily and blushed, kissing Yang Ye on the cheek in return. The sweetness was nauseating.

Lilina being able to enter the battlefield was a huge advantage for Yang Ye, but others could bring companions too, though it was uncertain if they were as powerful as Lilina.

Calmly, Yang Ye and Lilina crouched in a bush to hide, then carefully observed their surroundings—

The ruins of Deva Ancient City were a vast expanse of ancient ruins. The area around the ruins, where Yang Ye was now, was the outer perimeter. Looking around, the view was lush and green. In the distance, a towering structure could be seen, the remains of Deva Ancient City. Despite being in ruins, it still exuded a powerful aura that made one shudder. The surrounding green plants, seen from afar, looked like a dark green carpet, the result of years without human presence.

Expanding outward, a few small, low stone houses could be seen, possibly used as outposts, though they seemed a bit too close. Further out, on Yang Ye's right, was a large lake, with a river flowing through the vast ruins of Deva Ancient City. The lake was surrounded by lush trees, and the land around it was much more open and flat, with fewer large plants.

It was a perfect place for cavalry battles.

Putting other thoughts aside, Yang Ye drew his Xuan Yang Zhi Xie and looked at the dense network of dotted lines above his head, feeling a chill. This miner's helmet was too powerful, marking everything.

Choosing one of the lines, Yang Ye and Lilina quickly moved toward the target...

Fusheng, a high-level archer from the Northern Fog Snowfield, had chosen the Agile Archer class. Relying on his good reflexes, awareness, and decent equipment, he was considered a top player among his friends. His goal in the King's Battle was to be first!

"Damn, I've been running for so long and haven't even seen a rabbit. What the hell!" Fusheng cursed, feeling unlucky. He checked the kill leaderboard and saw that the first place had already killed 12 people!

"Damn, are those 12 people noobs? They were so easy to kill. Why didn't I run into them? I could have killed all 12 with one arrow!" Fusheng cursed, put away the leaderboard, and crouched, moving along the low bushes. Despite his frustration, Fusheng remained calm and continued his methodical approach, which was commendable.

Fusheng cautiously moved forward, not missing any suspicious sounds and making no noise that would reveal his position.

Suddenly, he heard rustling sounds ahead—

"Someone's there!"

Fusheng tensed, drew his bow, and aimed forward.

Heh, come on! Fusheng thought, after so long, I finally found a noob. The way they're moving, only a fool wouldn't see me! Ah, a newbie, with no sense of danger. How can they survive in such a dangerous environment? Well, I'll teach you how to play this game, how to play this mode...

Suddenly, the plants were torn apart, and a particle-effect-laden katana slashed toward him, full of menace!

The wielder was a girl!

Fusheng's pupils dilated. He didn't care if it was a girl. His chest muscles contracted rapidly, and he drew his bow to full string, barely aiming. He released the arrow, which whizzed forward with a sharp sound. His arm didn't stop, and he quickly drew the bow again, releasing a second, third, fourth, and fifth arrow in rapid succession.

Five arrows, in less than half a second, thanks to the system's assistance, using the Agile Archer's skill—Rapid Five-Shot.

The five arrows almost hit Lilina in quick succession, but she didn't dodge. The arrows struck her, interrupting her charge...

"Heh, this girl is pretty quick, but old hands are still the best..." Fusheng smirked, raising his bow again and aiming at Lilina, who was now standing still. Fusheng's skill, Spirit Arrow, was an AOE skill, so there was no way to dodge. Heh, just stay still and die...

"Tch..."

Suddenly, a disdainful voice rang in Fusheng's ear, making his hair stand on end—

He had been ambushed!

Despite the shock, Fusheng didn't give up. He frowned, spun on the spot, and saw a smiling face. Without hesitation, he shot an arrow, then took two steps back and planted a flower on the spot.

Flower Spirit: Spirit Blood Flower. A one-second channeling skill that plants a flower that heals allies and himself, with the healing effect based on his attack. The flower lasts 10 seconds and cannot heal outside its range.

Fusheng wanted to buy time, hoping someone nearby would come and take advantage of the situation. However, he was thinking too much—

"Gravity Control!"

A golden rainbow surged out, landing on Fusheng's head. A powerful force lifted him into the air, interrupting his flower skill.

"Thud!"

A dull sound, and Fusheng landed in front of Yang Ye. Yang Ye didn't hesitate, working with Lilina to finish off Fusheng.

"Trouble..." Yang Ye muttered, then found a closer target and rushed over.

Fusheng, after respawning, was still dazed. After a while, he looked fierce, his jaw muscles twitching, and said unhappily, "Promise Battle! Damn, that was harsh."
