Chapter 242 An Inescapable Showdown



Ning Hai lowered his eyes, his gaze falling on the gleaming scimitar pressed against his neck. He said irritably, "Tsk, even at this point, you're still as stubborn as a leech. Can't you be a little more perceptive?"

Ning Xiluo said coldly, "Give me back my things."

Ning Hai chuckled, feigning ignorance, "What is it?"

"Give it to me." Ning Xiluo frowned.

"No."

"Give me."

"You think you can just give it to me like that?"

"......"

Ning Haizhi's shameless behavior infuriated Ning Xiluo, who, without saying a word, stomped hard on Ning Haizhi's foot.

"hiss--"

Ning Hai cried out in anguish.

Yu Xiangnan's alarm bells had already gone off, and she subtly took two steps back. Seeing this, Ning Haizhi assumed she was trying to slip away and quickly called out to her, "Wait!"

Immediately afterwards, he quickly took out an exquisite music box from the card album and shoved it into Ning Xiluo's hand without saying a word.

"Here you go, okay?"

Ning Xiluo took the music box and put it into her album, but she didn't leave immediately. Instead, she turned around and looked at Yu Xiangnan, who was not far away.

She stood in front of Yu Xiangnan, her face flushed red, making a few indistinct sounds in her throat, but she couldn't utter a complete sentence.

Yu Xiangnan looked at Ning Xiluo with a puzzled expression. Just as he was about to ask a question, Ning Xiluo took a deep breath, as if using all her strength, and finally squeezed out two words through her teeth: "Go for it!"

After saying those two words, Ning Xiluo seemed to have completed a difficult task. She turned around abruptly and quickly disappeared from Yu Xiangnan's sight.

Only Yu Xiangnan, who was standing there in astonishment, and Ning Haizhi, who was furious, were left behind.

"Hey, you expressionless guy, who's your brother here?!"

Of course, the only response Ning Haizhi received was the chirping of birds from afar.

Yu Xiangnan was stunned.

Her thoughts suddenly drifted back to the past.

At that time, the university held a welcome party for new students, and their college's student union also needed to put on a performance. After some discussion, they finally decided to perform a play. Ning Xiluo took the initiative to participate, even though she was playing an eagle that didn't need to speak. However, she kept having problems and making frequent mistakes during rehearsals.

Seeing this, he often went to cheer Ning Xiluo on. Fortunately, the performance went smoothly that night, and the audience response was quite positive...

[Note]: [Normal Battle Card] successfully used.

The walls were as white as snow, and in the very center stood a huge arena that was particularly eye-catching.

The arena is a regular square, with sides about twenty meters long. The ground is paved with a strange and extremely solid material, and a faint transparent barrier surrounds the arena.

Ning Hai's face was full of dissatisfaction.

He raised his hand and snapped his fingers with a crisp "snap." In an instant, the entire scene twisted and changed.

The surrounding area seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, expanding rapidly at an astonishing speed, and the field of vision became extremely wide. In the blink of an eye, the scene before them transformed into a magnificent ancient Roman amphitheater.

A gust of wind blew by, and suddenly a deafening cheer erupted in my ears.

Yu Xiangnan looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the audience seats were full of people, but upon closer inspection, the faces of those people were all blurry, as if covered by a thin veil, and only the outlines of human figures could be vaguely seen.

Clearly, these blurry figures are merely meant to create an atmosphere of intense, adrenaline-pumping combat.

Yu Xiangnan couldn't help but ask, "Why did the scene suddenly change?"

Upon hearing this, Ning Haizhi put his hands on his hips smugly and replied with a face full of pride, "That's because I've used enough battle cards. With that accumulation, I've also gained the authority to switch battle scenes. How about that, impressive, right?"

Yu Xiangnan: "......"

Okay, okay.

The next second, a cold, mechanical sound suddenly rang out in the space.

Welcome to the dedicated battle space for battle cards. Here, you will engage in a fair duel.

The battle rules are as follows: Both sides can use their class skills, extra skills, and weapons to fight in the arena. Items such as health/mana recovery cards and defense cards are locked. There is no time limit for the battle; it continues until one side's health drops below 30% or they voluntarily surrender.

After the battle is decided, both players will be teleported out of the independent battle space. Time inside the independent battle space is the same as outside time; please pay attention to the time changes.

[Countdown: 3, 2...]

During guild wars, she witnessed Ning Haizhi fighting against players from other guilds, gaining a deep understanding of the class. Even now, Ning Haizhi remains number one on the Shadow Dancer rankings, a force to be reckoned with.

The Shadow Dancer class is renowned for its high attack power and exceptional agility. Of course, agility here doesn't simply refer to speed; its core lies in a unique skill—the player can slip into the shadows undetected.

More importantly, this skill can be used almost without limit. As long as the player releases the skill properly and the timing of the attack is clever, it can be used frequently in battle.

This gives Shadow Dancers not only astonishing explosive power on the battlefield, but also unpredictable speed. Once targeted, opponents often find themselves in a predicament that is difficult to defend against, making them an extremely troublesome class.

However, things are different now.

She now has two jobs.

As long as the Death Mark can be successfully used, even if Ning Haizhi disappears into the shadows, a conspicuous skull symbol will appear above his head, following him at all times and helping him to determine his location.
