Chapter 845: Chapter 845: Between Victory and Defeat

Prosperous Era’s Mage’s brain was operating at its limit. Turning the tide was extremely difficult with the crucial skills on cooldown, but as a professional player, he absolutely couldn’t give up before he was taken out.

Just like Tonton, who had reversed seemingly certain death situations so dramatically that it left people speechless.

And the audience had barely had time to react. Damn it, this was like a heart-stopping moment; they had just thought Tonton was a goner, but then there was another turnaround in the blink of an eye, which was really too much for the eyes to take in.

In fact, if it weren’t for the sky-high bets, this match wouldn’t have attracted so many viewers. However, they realized that this was truly a high-level match, not a no-class brawl between two weaklings pecking at each other.

Boom…

“Now is the time.”

Tonton saw the buff turn fiery red and immediately unleashed Lava Eruption.

At that moment, Prosperous Era’s Mage, due to the reduced sensitivity of his totem behind him, moved as slow as a crawling turtle.

Prosperous Era’s Mage used Roll, but the difference in sensitivity prevented him from accurately timing the invincibility frames.

Lava Eruption still hit him, triggering its effect and instantly shattering his Ice Shield, while his health dropped to less than one third.

But Prosperous Era’s Mage still didn’t give up. When he stood up, three other Mages, exactly like him and with the same health, appeared beside him.

“You little girl, die.”

All four Prosperous Era’s Mages spoke together, lining up to cast Ice Arrow, their movements, tone, and casting perfectly synchronized. Because they had risen after rolling, it was impossible to tell which one was the real Prosperous Era’s Mage. Obviously, Prosperous Era’s Mage had enhanced his Mirror Skill, allowing the Mirror Images to look exactly like him.

And to achieve this effect, including his real body, he cast Ice Arrow simultaneously, aiming to focus fire and instantly take Tonton down.

“You’re not qualified to kill me.”

Tonton made a decisive move and directly interrupted her second Lava Eruption.

Her arm flashed, and a fiery red glow enveloped one of the Prosperous Era’s Mages.

Fire Sacrifice!

One of the Prosperous Era’s Mages disappeared immediately, proving that he was not the real one but just a Mirror Image.

Pop…

Ancestor Totem!

Tonton finally revealed another one of her trump cards.

Ancestor Totem, a blessing from the spirit of the ancestors that increases the Spellcasters’ casting speed by 70%, lasting ten seconds, with a cooldown of three minutes.

Zzzap…

Tonton’s hands sparkled with dazzling Lightning Chains. Although she started casting late, with the blessing of the Ancestor Totem, her Lightning Chain was the first to strike.

The Lightning Chain directly hit one of the Prosperous Era’s Mages; then the lightning bounced onto the other two. Two of the Prosperous Era’s Mages instantly vanished, and the last one’s eyes were filled with an expression of disbelief.

At the same time, three Ice Arrows rushed towards Tonton but directly bombarded the ancestral totem that Tonton had placed in front of him, causing the totem to shatter into pieces.

With that, Prosperous Era Mage collapsed onto the ground, unwilling to accept defeat. He was so sure of victory; how could he have been overturned by his opponent?

What was crucial was that he was acutely aware that he had studied his opponent’s tactics, while Tonton clearly hadn’t seen his battles. This was what he found most unacceptable—losing even with the element of surprise on his side, leaving him no face to show to others.

Even more critical was the fact that he had just caused Prosperous Era Young Master to lose ten thousand Gold Coins and a legendary Golden Dress. He knew very well what kind of price Prosperous Era Young Master had paid to acquire that equipment.

He also knew how much Prosperous Era Young Master treasured the Golden Dress, and yet, he had lost it.

Moreover, his own rank in the district competition was higher than Tonton’s. Remembering Prosperous Era Young Master’s past deeds, Prosperous Era Mage felt sad for his own future; he didn’t know how Prosperous Era Young Master, in his furious state, would deal with him.

Prairie Fire and Starfire were figures that neither the guild leader nor Beast Speaker wanted to provoke temporarily. Although Prosperous Era Young Master appeared very arrogant, he understood the deep-seated fear of Li Yao that lingered in Prosperous Era Young Master’s heart.

Unable to retaliate against Li Yao for the time being, Prosperous Era Mage would inevitably have to deal with his own punishment.

Beast Speaker looked at Prosperous Era Mage silently. He knew full well that Prosperous Era Mage was already very strong and had tried his best. But seeing the vicious expression on Prosperous Era Young Master’s face, Beast Speaker could only sigh.

Meanwhile, Li Yao continued to converse intermittently with the others while savoring the delicacies, as if none of this was unexpected. It seemed as though ten thousand Gold Coins and the Golden Dress were not such a big deal to him.

But the viewers weren’t concerned with those intricacies; their hearts had been in their throats since the start of the match. The rapid exchanges and continuous twists and turns in the situation, the scales of victory and defeat swinging back and forth—although they found it hard to keep up, they also found it extremely thrilling.

This high-quality match left them wanting more and feeling that the ticket price was well worth it. The splendid battle also caused quite a stir in the real world, convincing many hesitant players to join the ranks of the Old Gods, to experience such exhilarating combat for themselves.

“Hee hee, big brother, how about it, I’m amazing, aren’t I? Killed that guy without even using my trump card,” Tonton said proudly upon being teleported back, seeking praise.

Li Yao handed an exquisite pastry to Tonton with a smile, saying, “Of course, Tonton is amazing. Who else could you be learning from?”

Tonton giggled continuously, nodding her head while the others were left with speechless expressions—this felt too much like a mob boss.

But Beast Speaker was somewhat taken aback, pondering what could be Tonton’s strongest ability if she didn’t even use her trump card.

Angel turned around and spoke indifferently, “What’s with the daze, Prosperous Young Master? The match is over—are you still pretending to be confused? We wouldn’t be thinking about bad debt, would we?”

Prosperous Era Young Master finally snapped back to reality—his facial muscles twitched uncontrollably, clearly struggling to accept the fact.

He forced a smile and said, “Ladies and gentlemen, the amount of Gold Coins is too large…”

Angel sneered, “Oh, the System is fair. You wouldn’t dare not pay, would you?”

Although Prosperous Era Young Master was in pain, he wouldn’t lose face, especially in front of so many guilds. Even if he had the intention of reneging, he wouldn’t show it; the disgrace wouldn’t be limited to him but extend to Prosperous Era as well. Moreover, with the System’s contract, legally binding, he couldn’t welch on the bet.

Beast Speaker said, “Ladies and gentlemen, the sum is indeed too large. Even collecting Gold Coins will take some time, right?”

Angel curled her lip disdainfully and said, “Heh, to think how wealthy and powerful Prosperous Era seemed, boasting boldly when making the bet. But now, it seems like nothing more than an empty show.”

Enraged, Prosperous Era Young Master declared, “I’ll give you the legendary Golden Dress right away, and I’m representing myself personally, not Prosperous Era. I will buy Gold Coins with my own money. If I can’t return it within three days, you can sue me.”

Li Yao accepted the legendary equipment, “Alright, I’ll give you three days.”

Everyone turned their attention to the legendary Golden Dress, curious about the amazing attributes of this treasured piece of equipment belonging to Prosperous Era Mage…
