Chapter 483 Demon Tiger
Five demonic giant tigers, with wisps of eerie black smoke emanating from their bodies, stared hatefully at all living things with their pitch-black eyes.
Wherever they go, the yellow earth fades to gray, becoming lifeless, as if its future has been permanently taken away.
Leo, on the other hand, needs to kill them.
Otherwise, he himself would be the one to die.
The terrifying roars of the monsters continued to reach his ears.
Although the dark and corrupted demonic creatures corrupt the will of other creatures, they still retain their own biological instincts.
The tiger's bloodlust and caution have also been preserved.
Their formation began to disperse, attempting to encircle Leo from different directions before launching an attack.
This is definitely the most difficult battle Leo has ever faced.
He couldn't remember how long ago it was when he first stepped into the dueling arena.
The opponent was also a novice, wearing heavy plate armor and a full-face helmet.
Although Leo had never actually fought anyone one-on-one before, he had witnessed many battles.
He immediately concluded that his opponent was a novice, and that armor was actually a burden to a novice in a duel.
Leo, wearing only a chainmail, moved with remarkable agility.
He easily maneuvered into the opponent's blind spot, and before the opponent could turn around in a panic, he had ample time to insert his blade into the gaps in the opponent's armor.
Leo won the first battle without even drawing his gun.
For the losers, death is the only outcome.
That was the first time Leo had killed someone, and he was breathing heavily because of it.
But he also understood that if he didn't kill the other person, he would be the one to die.
They are all helpless victims of enslavement and should not bear too much psychological pressure for the sake of killing.
Leo has always been rational; once he understands the pros and cons, he never hesitates.
After that, Leo fought his way through the ranks, defeating stronger warriors, more enemies, hordes of beasts, and strange and unusual opponents.
The fact that Leo is still standing in the dueling arena shows that he is always the one who has the last laugh.
His swordsmanship was only at a beginner level, but his mechanical gun always managed to save Leo's life at crucial moments.
If he encounters an invincible enemy, Leo uses the power of the contract to exchange for the power to defeat the great being at a slight cost.
And the enemies he faced became stronger with each passing day.
The remaining spices and bullets will allow him to use the machine gun a few more times.
However, the process of loading ammunition is extremely tedious.
Once a battle begins, it becomes difficult to find the time to reload.
"I must take down an enemy before I can fire," Leo thought, "otherwise I will surely die here."
While observing the positions of the five demonic tigers, Leo pondered his battle strategy.
Suddenly, Leo lunged forward, charging straight at one of the demon tigers.
The monster roared and charged straight at Leo.
Leo smirked and drew his machine gun.
"Bang!"
The bullet struck the opponent squarely in the head.
The Demon Tiger fell.
The loud noise stopped the other demon tigers in their tracks, and Leo seized the opportunity to reload.
But soon, another one charged in.
Leo could only interrupt and parry with his weapon.
The demonized beasts are often enormous. Although Leo blocked the claws with his sword, he was still knocked back several feet.
Although he reacted extremely quickly and slashed the opponent's foreleg, flesh and blood immediately grew back from the wound.
A lump of flesh was attached to the wound, as if it had already healed.
Leo was astonished. Could it be that attacking any part of the monster other than its head was ineffective against it?
When Leo was still a traveling merchant in the kingdom, he almost fell victim to a monster. Fortunately, a patrol was nearby, and Leo was saved.
That team, however, suffered heavy losses.
It was that experience that made Leo realize that creatures, after being corrupted, would gain different abilities.
The key to defeating Warcraft is to understand its abilities and counter them accordingly.
The ability of these magical beasts is clearly healing.
This is undoubtedly a very troublesome ability for Leo, who is completely clueless about physical combat.
To make matters worse, the remaining three monsters also launched an attack at the same time, giving Leo no time to catch his breath.
Leo immediately channeled his magic and quickly drafted a contract on his pupil.
In the blink of an eye, the contract was completed, and Leo immediately activated his ability.
The contract was signed, and a great being formed an alliance with Leo.
Leo suddenly realized that a gem he had been carrying at his waist had vanished.
That was the reward Leo was asking of his "patron".
Sponsors are the people who bring Leo into the arena, and they receive a cut of the ticket price for every duel Leo participates in.
Therefore, he was happy to pay when Leo asked for the "bonus".
It wasn't that the other party was generous, but rather that once Leo died in battle, everything would be returned to the sponsor.
The other party believed that Leo would die in the killing sooner or later, so they granted Leo's every request.
He certainly couldn't have imagined that anything could become Leo's funds, used to trade with the Great Being.
At that moment, Leo realized that the space in front of him had suddenly become distorted, as if something had descended upon him.
Suddenly, a semi-transparent, columnar object hurtled toward Leo and grazed his earlobe.
He knew that a great being had intervened.
Turning around, the two demonic tigers were found to be pierced through.
One head was missing, while the other was trying to heal the large hole in its body.
Leo immediately rushed forward and plunged his iron sword into the man's forehead.
Then, loading continues immediately.
The remaining two demon tigers seemed hesitant, so Leo quickly seized the opportunity to continue loading.
When the two demon tigers moved again, Leo finally finished reloading.
The instant the monster pounced, Leo pulled the trigger.
"Bang!"
Another one solved.
Only one is left.
But that one also appeared behind Leo—
"what!"
Leo screamed as the demon tiger attacked his back.
He rolled twice on the ground and then quickly got up.
He looked at the monster's claws, where two large, bloody pieces of flesh were hanging.
The intense pain nearly made Leo faint.
But he still burst into laughter: "Hahaha—"
Leo refused to give up, even though he was only a few steps away from his ideal.
The demon tiger charged again, but Leo didn't dodge; instead, he gripped his longsword tighter.
The sharp claws, like three steel knives, swept in from above at an angle.
Leo did not parry, but allowed the tiger claws to slice through his skin and penetrate deep into his flesh.
At the same time, he seized the opportunity and pierced the Demon Tiger's chin with his sword, reaching straight to the top of his head.
Since Leo didn't know swordsmanship, he could only use this clumsy method to get an effective attack.
Looking at the five monster corpses on the ground, Leo knew he had won again.
The entire arena erupted in thunderous cheers.
Countless coins were thrown down from the stands, while Leo, enduring the pain, opened his arms and savored the victory.
At the same time, he scanned the stands and finally found the most luxurious seat.
Before going on stage, he heard that the city's most distinguished people were also there to watch the duel.
Leo has been fighting all this time, waiting for this opportunity.
Victory cannot buy him freedom; to make deals, he must establish connections with those who have more influence.
Leo stared in that direction, then raised his hand and pointed there.
After maintaining this pose for a moment, Leo turned and walked toward the exit of the arena.
As soon as he left the scene, doctors immediately surrounded him to treat Leo's wounds.
He also felt his consciousness was blurred, as if he might faint at any moment.
But the good news was that he received the long-awaited message: "Can you still walk, champion? Someone wants to see you."
