  Chapter 93 The Knight and the Female Gunner

  Lin Yi's eyes blurred slightly, and his vision quickly returned to clarity after a brief blur.

  He found himself in an unfamiliar environment, standing in the center of a huge circular field.

  This area was extremely spacious, with a diameter of three to four hundred meters, as if it were an arena tailor-made for fighting.

  The solid and non-slip metal floor underfoot provides firm support even in fierce combat, preventing combatants from making mistakes due to the slippery ground.

  The edge of the venue was surrounded by a huge energy shield that emitted a faint but steady light, isolating the entire battle area from the outside world.

  Lin Yi looked up and saw that the venue was surrounded by stepped auditoriums. The entire arena was shaped like a huge puddle, with a flat circular arena in the middle and gradually rising auditoriums around it.

  This design not only makes it convenient for spectators to watch the game, but also allows the audience's shouts and cheers to be more concentratedly transmitted to the competitors, thereby inspiring their fighting spirit.

  What surprised Lin Yi was that nearly three-quarters of the seats in the audience of the arena where he was sitting were occupied.

  You know, his ranking was not very high, and such attendance rate was completely beyond his expectations.

  He couldn't help but glance at the audience curiously and found that the crowd there was bustling and lively.

  "Ohhhh! Shield Mountain! Shield Mountain!"

  Accompanied by the cheers of the audience, Lin Yi's opponent finally appeared.

  He was a knight wearing full plate armor and holding a heavy shield in his hand, named Shield Mountain.

  Hearing the cheers from the audience, Shield Mountain bowed to the people around him, obviously enjoying the feeling of being the center of attention.

  The employees in the audience seemed to be very familiar with Shield Mountain. They cheered and shouted, cheering for Shield Mountain.

  Shield Mountain is known for his mentality in the arena. He specifically chooses novice contractors as opponents and enjoys watching their frustrated expressions because they cannot break his defense.

  Over time, he has also accumulated a lot of popularity in this arena.

  Once his ranking was too high, he would deliberately lose games to keep his ranking at a very low level.

  In this way, he can continue to select novices as opponents and continue to enjoy the pleasure of being in control of the overall situation.

  Following two roars from Shield Mountain, "Stand firm as a mountain! Bless you with holy light!" a layer of dazzling light suddenly lit up on his armor and shield.

  Dunshan looked at Lin Yi provocatively, "Come on, kid."

  This move instantly made the atmosphere on the field tense, and the audience also felt the upcoming fierce confrontation, and the cheers became more enthusiastic.

  Lin Yi's body flashed flexibly, and the black and white rose in his hand drew a strange trajectory in the air, and quickly turned into a pentagram shape that flashed a faint light.

  Within half a second, the pentagram had hit Shield Mountain's shield.

  Shield Mountain was caught off guard by the swift attack and his arms felt numb.

  However, his defense was indeed extraordinary. Although Lin Yi's attack was powerful, it still failed to break through his defense.

  After the attack, Lin Yi did not rush to launch a continuous offensive, but chose to step back a few steps and re-observe Shield Mountain's condition from a more comprehensive perspective.

  After observation, Lin Yi found that although his first round of attacks did not cause significant damage to Shield Mountain, it was by no means in vain.

  He noticed the subtle changes in Shield Mountain after he took his attack, as if he was readjusting his posture to better deal with the next battle.

  Dunshan pointed his shield firmly at Lin Yi, his body tense, ready to face new attacks at any time.

  In full view of the crowd, more than a dozen bright halos suddenly appeared under Lin Yi's feet. These halos were like bright stars, instantly lighting up the entire arena and grabbing the attention of all the spectators.

  There was a flash of shock in the eyes of Dunshan on the opposite side. He obviously did not expect that Lin Yi was actually a priest.

  Lin Yi bent down slightly and made a thrusting motion like a cheetah aiming at its prey.

  Immediately afterwards, the metal ground where he was suddenly collapsed, forming a deep pit, and his figure appeared in front of the knight at lightning speed, like an arrow shot from a bow.

  It all happened so fast that the Knights had no time to react.  

  He opened his eyes wide, and could only watch helplessly as Lin Yi's attack approached. His heart was filled with astonishment and helplessness, but he was unable to take effective defensive measures.

  A soft "puff" sound was particularly harsh in this silent arena.

  The knight lowered his head in astonishment, only to see that Lin Yi's attack pierced through the shield in his hand and the plate armor on his body, and penetrated deeply into his heart.

  His heart was filled with disbelief. You know, the equipment he was wearing had been carefully strengthened in the equipment strengthening hall, and its defensive power was so strong that even the bombardment of cannons seemed powerless.

  However, now, Lin Yi relied on the power of a single blow to penetrate his defense and directly hit the vital point.

  The passing of life made Dunshan feel weaker than ever before. With his last bit of strength, Dunshan raised his right hand, gave Lin Yi a thumbs up, and said with difficulty: "Brother, awesome."

  After saying this, the knight's figure gradually became blurred and finally disappeared on the ring, leaving only silence.

  [The individual battle is over, victory! ]

  [Hunter's ranking has been raised from 175,463 to 164,703 (first level).]

  [Received a message from the opponent in this game, yes/no to check. ]

  Lin Yi clicked on the message and saw only a simple sentence on it, which made him chuckle.

  "Brother, please show some mercy to the Derivative World when it encounters trouble. Consider this 100 Paradise Coins as my invitation to tea."

  Lin Yi didn't expect this unexpected gain and put away the 100 Paradise Coins attached.

  Because of the low ranking, the opponent is matched very quickly, and the next opponent is matched in less than ten seconds.

  [Three, two, one, the battle begins.]

  This time, Lin Yi's opponent was a female gunman.

  She was wearing a denim suit with two revolvers slung casually around her waist. She looked heroic and had a bit of the style of a western cowboy.

  When the female gunman saw Lin Yi's outfit, a strange expression appeared on her face.

  Apparently, in her previous matches, she had rarely encountered opponents of the priest profession.

  "Priest?" The female gunman muttered with some playfulness, as if she was thinking about how to deal with such a special opponent.

  Then, she raised her eyebrows, blew a kiss to Lin Yi, and said jokingly, "Little brother, don't let me beat you to tears later."

  This sentence instantly ignited the atmosphere on the field, and a burst of laughter came from the audience.

  Upon seeing this, the female gunman pulled out the two revolvers from her waist without hesitation, flexibly made a gun flower, and pointed the muzzle at Lin Yi.

  Then, she pulled the trigger, and more than a dozen bullets whistled towards Lin Yi.

  Faced with this swift attack, Lin Yi did not show any sign of dodging.

  He stood in place, and suddenly a dazzling shield of light appeared on his body, protecting him firmly.

  This light shield was exactly the "Holy Light Defense" skill he had just learned.

  The bullet hit the light shield, making a crisp sound, but not leaving even a trace.

  The female gunman saw that her attack was easily blocked and an expression of disbelief appeared on her face.

  The unconvinced female gunman did not give up. She raised her two guns again and fired twelve bullets.

  However, the result was the same. The bullet seemed to have hit an indestructible wall and was instantly bounced off. The light shield still covered Lin Yi intact.

  The next second, the female gunman disappeared from the ring, breaking her defense and choosing to surrender.
