MMORPG: Martial Gamer

Chapter 1874 1874: The Terrifying Duo

Before the smoke could clear, a layer of golden holy light enveloped Fearless as he burst forth from the mist.

Holy Light Shield!

Seeing the golden glow on Fearless, everyone couldn't help but exclaim.

Just as everyone was astonished, Fearless had already rushed in front of Rockabye, shouting loudly, "Settlement!!"

"!!"

Rockabye had always been wary of Fearless's self-exploding style, and at that moment, hearing Fearless's shout, he instinctively spread his arms wide, causing the air around him to warp.

"Bang!"

Fearless was sent flying by the immense gravitational force.

However, at the same time, Fearless raised his staff, and a white flame floated toward Rockabye.

Divine Flame!!

It turned out that Fearless's loud shout of "Settlement" was merely a feint; the Divine Flame was the real skill he intended to release.

As everyone knows, Divine Flame is a targeted skill—once locked on, it cannot be evaded.

Although Rockabye's gravitational wave could repel all attacks, the Divine Flame slowly floated above his head and burrowed into his body.

At the same time, an ellipsis appeared above Rockabye's head...

Silence!!

After being hit by the Divine Flame, Rockabye was silenced.

Once silenced, players cannot cast any skills, and for a magic-oriented class, all their abilities depend on skill casting, especially for Rockabye.

The reason Rockabye is hard to deal with is that this guy's skills are very peculiar; no one knows their weaknesses, so contestants fighting against Rockabye are usually very passive.

But with Fearless's Divine Flame, Rockabye was instantly crippled by more than half.

In a silenced state, Rockabye's empty gravity technique naturally couldn't be maintained, and he swayed in mid-air before plummeting down.

During his fall, Rockabye was in a state of weightlessness, and Fearless grinned before pouncing on him...

At this moment, Rockabye was silenced and had lost his balance; not only could he not use skills, but he couldn't even perform the most basic normal attack. As Fearless lunged at him, no amount of struggling was of any use.

In the end, Fearless tightly embraced him.

The moment Fearless held Rockabye in his arms, a dazzling holy light burst forth from Fearless.

Settlement!!

The Settlement skill deals true damage; no matter how high the opponent's defense is, the damage dealt will not be reduced... even if the opponent possesses invincibility skills, it would be futile.

After all, invincibility is a unique skill of the priest class. If Settlement is ineffective against invincibility, would it not be cheating for the priest to self-destruct while using the Holy Light Shield?

This seemingly strengthens the priest, but in reality, it also protects other classes to some extent.

Poor Rockabye, who had dominated the matches effortlessly, now found himself brutally obliterated by a support class with such underhanded tactics.

Seeing this scene, the audience gasped in shock.

No one expected that such an apparently unbeatable class like Rockabye could be countered so thoroughly by an ordinary support class.

"I can't believe it... A priest, a support class, has countered Rockabye."

"Yeah, that kid is quite the talent for discovering that."

"Isn't that right..."

...

In the audience, people were buzzing with discussions, while the Holy Temple team had a gloomy Rockabye.

To be fair, Rockabye was quite confident in his class. Even he didn't foresee that he would be countered by a support priest.

As the saying goes, "Every profession has its nemesis." No profession is invincible, and while Rockabye could tolerate being countered, everyone has their dignity. At that moment, Fearless exposed the weaknesses of his profession in front of everyone, and one can imagine how frustrated Rockabye felt.

After all, Rockabye was once considered invincible, and now he had fallen from grace; only he understood the disparity of this fall.

"Nice going, Fearless... How did you discover this guy's weakness?"

As soon as Fearless left the stage, he was surrounded by members of the Crowd of Misfits team.

Rockabye had previously clashed with the Quan Zhen Sect, so everyone had a strong impression of his strength. Now that Fearless had managed to defeat Rockabye in a one-on-one, the Quan Zhen members were naturally very surprised.

"Weakness?" Fearless pretended to be nonchalant and boasted, "Encountering me is his weakness; it has nothing to do with the profession."

"Go to hell!"

Everyone raised their middle fingers. The admiration they had felt was utterly extinguished by Fearless's forced arrogance.

If Wang Yu had said that, everyone would have believed it wholeheartedly, but when it came from Fearless's mouth, it always had a hint of shamelessness.

...

The Holy Temple team consisted of heavyweight experts, with both mentality and strength at their peak.

The loss in the first round had minimal impact on the Holy Temple team; in the second round, the spatial mage Jeff was still on the field.

On the other hand, the Crowd of Misfits team sent out Yang Nuo.

"Hoo~~"

When Yang Nuo took the stage, a round of whistles erupted from the audience.

Since <<Rebirth>> is a holographic simulation MMORPG, player combat is a real test of fighting ability.

In this regard, female players are relatively disadvantaged; even with the same attributes, female players are at a significant disadvantage against male players of the same level.

Thus, in top-tier professional competitions, female competitors are quite rare, and those with real skill are even fewer.

Yang Nuo, however, is an exception in this competition.

Although she is a woman, her strength and tactics are quite formidable. People still vividly remember her impressive performance yesterday when she forcibly blinded her opponents with a physical attack. Such an exceptionally strong woman naturally earns the audience's admiration.

Moreover, Yang Nuo is also quite attractive... she is undoubtedly a powerhouse as well as an idol.

However, Yang Nuo's opponent, Jeff, is no pushover either. He doesn't attack often, but so far, no opponent has lasted more than two moves against him.

In yesterday's matches, Jeff faced opponents twice; the first time he eliminated one with a single blow, and the second time he wiped out the opposing team in one attack.

Such terrifying performances earned Jeff the nickname "The Warlord of Waist-Cutting", as his attacks always split opponents in half.

At this moment, both players on stage were terrifying figures that had left a psychological shadow on the audience; who was stronger and who was weaker was naturally the focus of everyone's attention.

Since Yang Nuo was not present during the last encounter against the Quan Zhen Sect, she and Jeff did not actually know each other. However, they both watched yesterday's matches and were acutely aware of each other's strength, exchanging cautious glances.

As the match began, Yang Nuo narrowed her eyes, raised her hand, and fired a Shock Arrow at Jeff while lunging toward him.

"Duang!"

As a mage, Jeff was naturally not as agile as an archer. Yang Nuo's arrow hit him, causing him to take a step back, and Yang Nuo quickly closed the distance, rushing right in front of Jeff.
