Chapter 517: Anyone Is Terrifying!
Looking at the full view of 'Ice-Fire Island' on the large Virtual Screen, and listening to Stella's pleasant introduction, Im's mood was completely satisfied.
This was the fun of being a Transmigrator!
If there were another Transmigrator from the same place as him participating in this Rematch competition mode, they would definitely understand what Im was finding Joy in.
Isn't this just 'Multiplayer-Online-Battle-Arena'?
And a live-action version at that!
Actually, the previous Selection Trial was also like this; wasn't it just 'battle royale'?
He just hadn't thought it through in such detail back then, and the World Government below, being inexperienced, hadn't considered everything properly, leading to so many Casualties.
Getting back to this Rematch.
This was something Im had constantly been thinking about before he transmigrated.
It was just that back then, he fantasized about how great it would be if there was some kind of high Technology virtual reality that could allow real Human to play as 'Heroes' in a five-on-five 'MOBA' competition.
Now, this is a variation of that form, letting the participants of the Combat Power Competition put on an Arena Competition where real Human act as 'Heroes'.
Moreover, Im intends to make this Competition mode permanent. Every future Multiverse Combat Power Competition will have its contestants compete on Ice-Fire Island!
"Hahahahaha!"
A strong sense of dark amusement surged in his Heart. On the surface, Im maintained a calm, even indifferent Expression, but internally, he was already laughing loudly, maniacally, explosively...
"This is what's interesting! A World that's becoming more and more fun is the World I want!"
"And it's the World that belongs to me!"
At the same time,
The Audience from the four Worlds were also attracted by this novel Competition mode. Everyone was discussing animatedly, talking about the harsh Environment on Ice-Fire Island, and how they should play according to the rules to win.
Naturally, the four hundred participants on the Deck of the Cruise Ship were also looking out at the distant Island while discussing in low voices with their newly formed teammates.
"They don't let us kill Human, that makes it boring."
"Exactly, if we can't kill, isn't it just like Child playing games?"
"I think it's pretty good. At least our lives are guaranteed. This is the great Era of Conquest of the Multiverse, I don't want to die prematurely. At least I have to taste the women from Otherworld!"
At this moment, the Loudspeaker above sounded a Broadcast again.
"In one hour, Squad 1 and Squad 2 will have the first Competition. Please, the players from both sides, under the guidance of the Marine Soldier, proceed to the Warship you need to board. They will take you to the Castle Dock on both sides of the Island."
Immediately, everyone's Gaze focused on the ten Human in those two Squad. The most noteworthy was Squad 2, because there was a Fish-Man Tribe member among them!
It was Chew from the Arlong Pirates, a Kissing Gourami Fish-man over two meters tall, with blue skin, large red lips, and dark gold hair.
According to the records in that booklet.
This was a Strong Fish-man skilled in Fish-Man Judo, capable of controlling water flow to a certain extent, and even spitting water Gun!
However, just like Arlong, he was quite disdainful of the four Human teammates beside him.
The relatively tall Chew didn't even bother to look at them, just stood with his Right Hand in his Pocket, looking at Ice-Fire Island.
For him, neither the Volcano High-Temperature Environment nor the Iceberg Low-Temperature Environment was comfortable, because Fish-Man Island was a place that was warm all year round.
"Looks like we need to hurry to the Lake in the Center, slurp~"
Soon, two Squad Human were led by several Marine Soldier onto a Warship. After deciding the Court by tossing a Coin, they quickly sailed towards the two ends of Ice-Fire Island on their respective Warship.
As for the remaining participants, most chose to return to the Cabin and discuss more specific Matter in a Member's Room. As for the Situation of this Competition, they could watch it inside the Room through a small Visual Den Den Mushi.
A portion also noticed that there were fewer Human on the Deck, so they simply stayed there, found a corner Position, and discussed in low voices while enjoying the Sea Breeze.
These basically belonged to the type who were bold due to their high skill, completely unconcerned about potential 'leaks'.
Just so.
Squad 5, Squad 10, and Squad 12 were all like this.
However, compared to the latter two Squad whose Atmosphere was harmonious, Squad 5 seemed to be full of Conflicts.
"Huh?"
"You lowly Race, it is already a tremendous Glory to be able to become teammates with me, a noble Fish-man. How dare you disobey me?"
Arlong clenched his fist and raised it, baring his mouth full of sharp teeth, glaring fiercely at the four Human in front of him and threatening them.
Although he had been dealt with by that Marine Colonel a few years ago, his nature hadn't changed much because of it. Instead, as his Fish-Man Karate level increased, his confidence became even more inflated.
In the previous Selection Trial, he had used the Lake and River in the Center of the Island to slaughter hundreds of Human Expert.
"Huh?"
When Krieg heard this, he suspected his ears had deceived him. He subconsciously used his finger to pick at his ear canal, and picked out a small piece of yellow earwax on his fingertip.
He saw him flick his finger casually, flicking it onto Arlong's face, then sneered, "How come I remember that a few hundred years ago, you were always classified as Fish?"
"If we're talking about being lowly, isn't the Fish-Man Tribe the lowest among all Race?"
Krieg's two rhetorical questions and that piece of earwax caused a red light, condensed with Killing Intent, to flash in Arlong's eyes.
"Shorty, you dare to insult Fish-man in front of me, Arlong?"
"Are you looking for death?"
Speaking of which, Arlong's Height was two meters sixty-four, while Krieg was 'only' two meters forty-three. There was indeed a noticeable Gap of twenty centimeters, equivalent to Human in confrontation.
"Stinky Small Fry, it seems I need to teach you what kind of Attitude you should use when Speaking to noble Human."
Because of his innate Monstrous Strength, Krieg had lived a life where he only bullied others, and others dared not bare their teeth at him, ever since he was born.
Moreover, his Personality was a combination of arrogance, ruthlessness, and baseness.
If Arlong still had some affection and loyalty towards his own Race, then Krieg was truly vicious at Heart. At this moment, his Gaze towards Arlong was also narrowed, with a sinister Cold Light flashing within.
He knew that his Strength probably wasn't enough to defeat this Fish-man, but to kill a Human, you don't actually need to be Strong than them...
"You!"
Just as Arlong was about to say something else, he heard Beckman, who was holding a Cigarette, exhale a puff of Smoke and gave a Warning in a deep voice, "Shut up. Be careful of trouble coming from your mouth."
Meanwhile, Yasopp just stood there with his sniper Gun, not saying a word.
"Huh?"
Arlong was so angry he laughed.
Alright, he hadn't read that 'Player Manual' at all, because in his Heart, after mastering advanced Fish-Man Karate, most Human couldn't be his Opponent.
As for that small portion, they were all in the World Government's Military!
Suddenly.
Arlong attacked without Warning. He clenched his massive fist and smashed it towards Krieg's Head.
The next second.
A muffled thud sounded.
Arlong's Head was struck by something so fast it was impossible to see clearly. The entire Human flew out like a Cannonball, then slammed heavily into the Ship railing on the other side, unable to get up for a long time.
Beckman, with a Cigarette in his mouth, held the Gun Barrel of a Pistol in one hand and said indifferently, "I gave you a Warning, be careful of trouble coming from your mouth. If there's a next time, four Human can participate on our side."
It turned out he had hit Arlong with the Gun stock just now, but his Speed was so fast that Krieg didn't see anything at all. Only Yasopp and Mekko, who had already Awakening Observation Haki, clearly felt it...
"So Strong!"
Mekko stared at Beckman with her small mouth agape in astonishment, thinking to herself, "There was no Haki Aura just now, so he completely relied on his own Strength to send that Fish-Man Tribe member flying?"
She felt even more awe towards this World. It was truly terrifying that any Human you randomly pulled out was this Strong!
[Author's Note: Everyone, please Speaking more. Without anything, it feels very boring. Don't you have any thoughts or Suggestion about this Book?
