Chapter 207: Chapter 177: No Martial Virtue_1

[You have slain a Level 19 Mysterious Man, experience points +9, lifespan +1, Evil Camp reputation +19.]

Twenty-four minutes into the battle, Mu You finally claimed his first kill against the black-robed people.

Others who assisted with the Reaper’s Pact would share experience points proportionately according to the amount of magic power they lent.

Seeing the notification in his mind, Mu You quickly calculates and roughly guesses the distribution of experience points.

In the battle just now, his own magic power still took the lion’s share, the 19 experience points were divvied up, and he received 9, while the other five people shared 10 experience points, each receiving roughly two points.

It seemed insignificant and easy to overlook, but don’t forget, this was just the first kill.

The number of lives this man had was the number of kills Mu You could rack up.

And the night was still long...

At this moment, the black-robed man on the opposite side was still staring at Mu You incredulously.

He still couldn’t accept the fact that he had lost to his opponent in a magic duel.

He was an elite among the younger generation in the Wizard Association, had over ten thousand magic points, and mastered hundreds of spells.

His opponent, on the other hand, was just a newly evolved rookie, who only had a dozen or so types of magic to use repeatedly. How could such a person manage to exhaust him first?

"Your trump card is used up, now it’s my turn!"

Mu You instructed the Battle Eagle to guard the doorway, then with a magic wand in one hand and the Vampire Claws in the other, he charged towards the black-robed man.

The black-robed man was now completely drained of magic power, so he quickly stepped back, sliding his fingers swiftly and pulling out a scroll.

[Mana Swap: Exchanges your leftover magic power with your opponent’s, no magic consumption required for usage.]

This scroll was the black-robed man’s real trump card, and the reason why he dared to deplete his magic power to its last tenth before deciding to retreat.

As long as he had this scroll, he had the hope of turning the tables at any time!

The black-robed man swiftly tore open the scroll. He knew that his opponent had some denial spells, but this should be the cooldown period for his denial. There was a high probability that this scroll could take effect!

Sure enough, as the scroll tore open, a faint blue link instantly formed between him and Mu You, signaling the successful casting of the spell.

Seeing Mu You charging towards him, the black-robed man had his magic wand at the ready and the spell on his lips, waiting for the moment his magic power returned to blast his opponent to smithereens!

In a flash of light, the remaining magic power in both of them was instantly swapped, and then...

There was no ’then’...

Until the effect of the scroll dissipated, the black-robed man found that his magic power was still emptiness.

"How is this possible?"

The black-robed man was stunned for nearly half a second before he reacted, looking at Mu You in both shock and delight: "You’re out of magic power too!"

"No shit, why else do you think I had to run over here?"

By the time Mu You’s voice sounded, he had already quickly charged to his front, not saying a word before launching a tackle.

The black-robed man, who initially had lower attributes than Mu You, and was presently surprised, couldn’t evade in time and was hit straight on. He felt as if his internal organs had been misplaced by the impact, causing him to fly into the air.

In mid-air, though in pain, the black-robed man was somewhat thankful. At least his opponent was also out of magic power, rendering them both powerless, putting them in the phase of a purely physical duel. It was still uncertain who would die...

However, just as he was thinking this, he saw Mu You, who was on the ground, raise his wand again. On the tip of the wand, an enormous fireball rapidly took shape.

"You!"

The black-robed man’s eyes widened, a whirlwind of questions swirling in his mind: what happened to the physical duel?

The next moment, he was engulfed by the surging flames.

This time there was nothing to shield him, he ate the full brunt of the fireball.

Aside from the initial explosion damage, the Small Fireball spell also resulted in continued high-burn damage. The longer one stayed within the fire’s range, the more damage they would take.

By the time the black-robed man, bearing the pain of being scorched, rolled out from next to the fireball, he had lost a third of his health points.

But it wasn’t over yet, just as he landed and was about to steady himself, a rapidly expanding snowball was hurled right at his face, exploding on impact, as if perfectly timed with his performance.

"Bang!"

Amidst the flurry of snowflakes, the black-robed man was frozen in place. Around him, the scattered snowflakes quickly condensed into a big snowman more than three meters tall.

This was the effect of the Black Magic Snowball Curse.

The original Snowball Curse could only freeze the enemies it affected after rumbling more than 80 meters. But Black Magic had no range limitation, it could freeze the target directly wherever it exploded.

Moreover, after the Snowball Curse of the Black Magic exploded, it would form a snowman with impressive attack power at its original location. The creature that the snowman slapped would continuously slow down. After multiple stacks of slowing down, it would be frozen again.

At this moment, the Ice Man had appeared directly next to the black-robed man, raising its frosty arms impolitely aimed at the black-robed man. Each slap would cause a huge drop in his HP.

But Mu You still wasn’t satisfied, he summoned a Fire Giant on the spot.

The two elemental creatures, one of ice and one of fire, both taking turns to slap the black-robed man from side to side, giving him an exquisite experience of the Destinies of Frost and Flame.

The black-robed man’s life was already under threat, and at this moment, unable to fight back due to freezing, he couldn’t withstand the torment of both beasts and quickly exhausted his HP, dying once again.

Mu You specifically made sure that the Fire Giant delivered the killing blow.

After the Fire Giant completed the kill, it roared in anger, its body suddenly enlarging from three meters to over four meters high, and the flames all over its body burned with greater intensity.

Every time the Fire Giant killed a creature, it evolved once. If it evolved a few more times, Mu You wouldn’t need to lift a finger; the Fire Giant alone could torment the black-robed man enough to make him wish he was dead or alive.

"That’s impossible, this isn’t white magic!"

Elsewhere, the resurrected black-robed man, completely ignoring his own situation, once again looked at Mu You in shock.

He hadn’t paid much attention before because of the distance. But just now, when he had personally experienced the feeling of being burned by a fireball, he finally recognized it: With such strength, this definitely had to be black magic!

"You...you’re actually a Dark Wizard?"

The black-robed man looked at Mu You in horror, unconsciously taking a step back.

He finally started to understand why he was losing: He’s actually been fighting a Dark Wizard!

Dark Wizards can harness natural magic power, their combat power isn’t as simple as it seems on the surface.

If he had known that this person was a Dark Wizard, he would definitely not have boldly trapped them both in a bottle.

Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets, he severely underestimated the opponent’s strength, which resulted in him being forced into a desperate situation...

However, Mu You didn’t give him time to dwell on this. As soon as the black-robed man was resurrected, he promptly ordered the Fire Giant and Ice Man to chase him, and summoned a Netherworld Demon Child for good measure.

With the blockade of three high-level summoned creatures, the black-robed man couldn’t escape and could only keep retreating while trying to find some more magic potions to use.

Unfortunately for him, Mu You was watching from the sidelines. He might ignore other things, but he had to strictly guard against all kinds of magic potions!

As soon as the man showed any intention of using a potion, he would immediately shoot an arrow at him. If he missed, he could always rewind time and try again. In any case, he couldn’t let him drink any potions.

This made the black-robed man extremely angry, but he couldn’t do anything about it. With that layer of ’Mana Drain’ negative buff, his magic power recovery even slower than the drain. Without magic power, he couldn’t even match Mu You’s attributes let alone fight against three high-level summoned creatures.

It took less than half a minute for the black-robed man to be hit by Mu You’s Bone-Breaking Knife, entering a disabled state, and was then brutally beaten by the three summoned creatures. He died again, and the Fire Giant grew even taller.

Next, the fourth time, the fifth time...

In the midst of the black-robed man dying again and again, the Fire Giant grew bigger and bigger, making the battle easier and easier.

After the tenth kill, the Fire Giant had evolved into a gigantic fire creature which could kill the black-robed man with only three slaps!

Unfortunately, the Fire Giant was also a summoned creature with a time limit. After five minutes, the Fire Giant that was more than ten meters high immediately dissipated into melted lava on the ground.

Seeing this biggest threat disappear, the black-robed man finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, before he could even relax for a second, he saw Mu You wave his magic wand and summon another Fire Giant...

The black-robed man almost vomited blood. A magic spell of this level had no cooldown? Black magic can actually be this unreasonable?

Little did he know, Mu You was also complaining in his heart, a Fire Giant that had finally been raised to a decent size had disappeared just like that, and he had to start raising it all over again, what a hassle!

Seeing this situation, the black-robed man could no longer muster any battle intention and charged recklessly in the direction of the bottle’s mouth. Unfortunately, the Battle Eagle was squarely blocking the bottle mouth. If he dared to get close, it would be met with a thunderstrike.

In the end, the black-robed man didn’t succeed at all, Mu You blocked him every time, and then was repeatedly beaten to death by the summoned creatures.

"Have such a strong will to fight? How many more times can you die?"

After dying for the twelfth time, seeing that the black-robed man was still charging stupidly at the mouth of the bottle like a dumb kid, Mu You suddenly asked.

These words made the black-robed man pause, cold sweat instantly pouring down his forehead.

That was something he had said to the other party not long ago, he didn’t expect it to be turned back on him so quickly...

He had already died continuously twelve times, the experience penalty had accumulated to a terrifying twenty thousand points, and would continue to double in the coming deaths.

The black-robed man took a look at his remaining experience points and found to his shock, if he died again, he would drop straight down to level 18!

Moreover, because the experience points for each level will be halved, while the death penalty would keep doubling, the subsequent decrease levels would be faster and faster.

The seventeenth death, he will drop back to level 15. Not only will his attribute points decrease sharply, but he will also lose the rank pressure, he will die even quicker.

What was even more terrifying was that after the eighteenth death, the death penalty would reach a horrifying 1.31 million points!

Just that single time would be enough to drop him from level fifteen directly below level ten!

At that time, he would be the one under the other’s rank pressure...
