Chapter 39: Persecution of Potential
Kordak's body flew upside down again, his body of more than 1.9 meters dragging puffs of smoke and dust on the ground, and the sound of his body colliding with the stone made people feel painful even if it sounded.
But he stood up anyway, albeit reluctantly.
Kordak's left ankle was sprained by Rego, and the iron chain mail he had worn was now in tatters. In some places, the rings had cracked, and sharp parts had been embedded in Kordak's body, leaving his entire body covered in wounds.
And Rego is also not happy, he has a lot of knife wounds on his body. His right arm was trembling slightly, and the flesh on his left rib had turned out, and Sen Sen's white bones could be faintly seen from his hideous wound.
Half an hour into the game, Kordaq was fighting Rego like a mad beast. He seemed to have a complete oblivion of his own pain, and he never had fear of this formidable foe, and his only thought was to fight.
"Do you want to fight?" Rego did not have the playful and casual tone at the beginning, but replaced it with respect and solemnity from the heart.
Not only did the audience not expect to play for so long, but he himself did not expect it. Kordak's will to fight was completely beyond anyone's imagination, and it was common sense that he could fall into a coma at any moment with such a serious injury. But Kordak hadn't fallen until now, and even his eyes were still sharp and clear.
"I've said it all, don't think I'll throw in the towel unless you knock me down. Cordak said, his voice revealing his weakness despite his best efforts to control himself.
"Kordak! Kordak! Kordak! Kordak! Kordak......" Many spectators in the venue are calling Kordak's name, and up to now, almost ninety percent of the audience have begun to support Kordak, although they still don't think Kordak can beat Rego, but now, it doesn't matter whether you win or lose, for Kordak, the most important thing is how good you can do. And for the audience, the most important thing is that this game is very enthusiastic and exciting.
Rego looked around, and said, "Hear me? they're all cheering for you." ”
"I'm not deaf, of course I can hear. Kordak said coldly, because there was pain all over his body, so he was almost numb to the pain.
"Cheers for the weak, only you humans can do it. Rego sighed and said, "I have to say that some human cultures are indeed more gentle and friendly than ours. ”
"Weak?" Kordak's eyelids jumped, even though he had tried his best, was he still a weak person in Rego's eyes?
"Yes, you are no match for me. Rego said that although he had great respect for his opponent, the barbarians valued strength almost as much as the orcs, and since Kordak could not beat him, then he was qualified to call him weak.
Kordaq wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then smiled hard: "Well, I admit that I may not be your opponent. But remember what I said earlier?"
"What's that?" said Rego.
"I told you you're going to find a priest after you're done fighting me!" Kordak rushed up again, roaring as he rushed.
Rego's heart skipped a beat, he didn't expect this Kordak to burst out with such vitality even to this extent.
"Boss!" Regner stood up nervously, he had expected Kordaq to give up after that short break, but he didn't expect him to rush up again. As a companion who has been with Kordak for many years, Regner knows exactly where Kordak's limit is, it stands to reason that he has already exhausted his physical strength, but why hasn't he fallen yet, why is he still fighting?
A pair of hands drenched in cold sweat grabbed Regner, who he knew was Vera. Because Innellis and Erin's hands are soft and boneless, only Vera's hands have grown a thin callus from years of holding a bow.
"Let me stop him. Regner turned to Vera and said, "If he fights any more, he may die." ”
A flash of struggle flashed in Vera's eyes, and she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, then shook her head firmly.
"Sister Vera!" Regner immediately became anxious.
"He'd rather die than be stopped at this time. Vera sighed and said, "This is his battle, and it's his chance." ”
Regner was stunned for a moment, and he muttered, "Sister Vera, you mean...... Burst of potential?"
"Yes. Vera said.
The potential of each individual creature is incredibly powerful, even the weakest human has a terrifying potential, and if it is fully exploited, this person can even have the strength of a high-ranking warrior!
There are many ways to force potential, and taking medication like Balor is the most stable, the quickest, and the most costly. In order to rapidly improve his strength in a short period of time, he took the special potion of the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild and forcibly promoted himself to level eighteen. And the price is that his progress will be extremely slow in the future, which is a side effect of the drug.
There is also a way to do this, through a grind, a very cruel and painful grind. In this way, creatures push their limits, and the end result of this breakthrough is to awaken the deepest potentials that lie dormant within the body. This method has few side effects, but it is extremely painful and dangerous.
Obviously, Kordak has no way and does not want to use that kind of potion, and now if he wants to improve his strength quickly, he can only rely on this extreme training to force himself.
"Let him come. Vera said softly.
Regner looked at Kordak, who was still fighting on the battlefield, and then at Vera, and finally nodded reluctantly: "Okay, but if the boss's life is in danger, then I will definitely stop it." ”
At the same time, Annelot also adjusted her sitting position to the most conducive position for casting spells. As soon as Rego threatens Kordak's life, she will not hesitate to throw an instantaneous spell over, human immobilization, dissociation, deep freeze, ...... When necessary, she will also choose the Finger of Death.
......
"Drink!" Kordaq leaped, his two-handed sword slashing straight above his head.
Rego took a step back, his two-handed sword leaving a shallow scratch on his skin, but it didn't hurt him in any way. He stepped on his two-handed sword with his left foot and kicked his right foot directly at Kordak.
Kordaq didn't choose to resist this time, he decisively gave up his two-handed sword, and then ducked Rego's kick. Then he pulled out the last dagger he carried, and quickly sprang behind him from under the barbarian's crotch.
Despite being quite tall, Kordak was still a head shorter than Rego. Kordak gripped his dagger tightly, and then stabbed it into Rego's body with the last of his strength.
"Ah!!h
"Ah!!!h But he didn't care about any of this, and just pulled his dagger so that it could cut through a little more of Rego's flesh.
Rego finally turned, punched Kordaq in the head, and then lifted his kick and kicked him out again.
Kordaq spat out a few mouthfuls of blood in the air, and when he hit the ground, his whole body could only convulse violently, but he could no longer stand up. There is no doubt that Rego's blow just now has completely deprived him of his ability to fight.
"Kordak!" Vera immediately panicked. She desperately wanted to run to Kordak's side, but it was hard for her to move in the bustling auditorium. Similarly, it was impossible for Regner to use the Shadow to teleporte over in broad daylight. Only Annelot rushed to Kordak's side with an instantaneous displacement after seeing him fall.
"Annie?!" Several people were stunned, and the staff of the arena did not stop them after seeing that it was Annie Lott who was approaching Kordak, after all, she was a member of the Palace Mage Association, and it was impossible for her to jump out and make trouble at this time.
"The sternum and skull were shattered, the bruise area occupied 20% of the body, the two muscles were severely broken, and the heartbeat was disordered. Annelot used her magic to check on Cordak's injuries as she silently estimated in her mind. She casually cast a few spells to ease Cordak's injuries.
Although not a priest, the mage also has several spells that are biased towards healing effects, and although they are not very strong, they are now undoubtedly the key to saving Kordak's life.
Yes, even though Rego didn't kill Kordak, Kordak's long and bitter battle still put his life in danger. If it weren't for the support of the werewolf blood in his body, I'm afraid he would have died ten minutes ago.
After Anne Lot's emergency treatment, she used a teleportation spell on Vera: "The boss is not in danger of life, don't get excited. ”
After Anne Lot had done all this, she performed the teleportation technique again and returned to the private room.
It didn't take long for two staff members to carry Kordak out, and Rego dragged his badly injured body out of the arena.
Annelot looked over the audience, only to find that Regner had left at some point, and Vera was preparing to leave with Erin and Iniris.
"Do you know that Kordak, and why did you help him?" asked Joffrey, though the two of them were a little unpleasant just now, but it was very easy for a personable man to forgive a lady for her faux pas.
"I just admire his courage. Anne Lott said casually.
......
Ragner stood outside the contestants' tunnel at some point, and it wasn't long before Rego's stumbling footsteps rang out.
"Are you waiting for me?" Rego asked first when he saw Regner.
"The Kordak you wounded today is my friend, a very good friend. Regner said coldly.
"He's a warrior, but he's still no match for me, I defeated him, so what?" replied Rego grinning in pain, Kordaq had fulfilled his promise, and now he really needed a priest to heal his wounds.
Ragnar's fists were clenched, and he struggled to resist his urge to make a move with Rego here. Then he gritted his teeth and said, "If nothing else, your next opponent will be me." ”
"Oh, I'm looking forward to it. Rego nodded.
"You're going to lose that one. Regner said lightly.
"I'm looking forward to your attribute abilities. Rego said nonchalantly.
