262 Game Start!
[Countdown started]
Hiro looked at his surroundings. Everyone had taken out their weapons. No one discussed, and no one had time to make strategies. What was the point of splitting them into two big teams if the players were not given time to have a discussion? Hiro was sure it was all because there would only be one winner from that game.
[3…]
[2…]
[1…]
[Game started!]
The thin translucent barrier that had been glitching in front of them suddenly broke with a loud boom and turned into pixels that vanished in seconds. No one attacked before one of the human team members shouted loudly.
“Attack!”
A middle-aged man holding a long sword in his left hand up high managed to make the others shout and ran to attack their opponents.
“Attack!”
The people who had been at the front, side, and behind Hiro had already rushed forward to attack the opposing team as well, while Hiro watched the situation from where he stood for a bit longer.
A clash of forces between the demon team and the human team ensued, and the sound of weapons colliding with each other and the loud thud of explosions filled the Colosseum.
Not a single one of them wasn’t serious about fighting their opponents. They fought as if they were in a real war. Some who weren’t strong enough were instantly killed on the spot and simply vanished after their bodies turned into pixels in the air.
Hiro wasn’t interested in those who were fighting on the front lines, instead his eyes moved to where the spectators were and looked for a possible point where the special orbs were hidden.
[Demon’s eyes]
“Argh…” Hiro felt his head throb violently as he activated the demon’s eyes. When he looked at a point in the spectators’ area using the demon’s eyes, his vision seemed to move like zooming in and out continuously. It was not normal, so it was a bit of a hassle.
While the others continued to fight against each other with the aim of destroying the power generator, Hiro instead drew back the Blood-eater vampire to his back and then ran towards the edge of the battle arena.
Kwak!!
Spyro followed Hiro, not joining the fight like the other pets.
Boom! Kabooom!
A huge explosion managed to make the ground of the battle arena vibrate for a second, and Hiro checked who the culprit was. He saw someone he knew, and that person was on the human team. LostSoul, that powerful knight just stomped a large coffin shield from underground and made the ground with a radius of 10 meters around him seem to fall down. It made anyone who was considered an opponent by him in the arena staggered down.
Besides LostSoul, Hiro saw that all the Immortal Knights guild leaders were on the human team. Although he was relieved to see that they were all right, remembering that this time his position as their opponent made him feel a little difficult.
However, Hiro focused on his goal, and he was sure that the demons on his team could still last a little longer.
Out of everyone’s attention, Hiro had already jumped onto a high wall, walking there horizontally using his buff dash acceleration until he managed to jump to where the spectators were. It made them suddenly startled and walk away, as if they thought Hiro came to kill them.
“Ahhh! What are you doing here, demon? Hurry down and get back there!”
“Don’t run away from the game or you will be punished!”
Hiro ignored the ignorant people who only focused on that classic mode battle. They had probably forgotten that there was a power they could gain by searching for the special orbs scattered in the Colosseum. That was right, in the Colosseum, not just in the battle arena.
[Demon’s eyes]
Once again, Hiro felt an extremely uncomfortable throbbing as he used the skill. Even his vision was still abnormal. However, Hiro still forced himself and broke his limit.
With the help of Demon’s eyes, everything he saw now looked different. And Hiro finally saw objects that were invisible to the normal eyes or deliberately camouflaged with the environment so that they were difficult to find.
“Got them.”
Hiro saw three dots nearby which gave off a strange thin aura like smoke. It kept appearing from nothing. The three points were close to each other, and Hiro immediately approached the former. The dot was under the feet of a female spectator who was restless because one of her chosen fighters had just been killed.
“Excuse me, I’m sorry,” Hiro said, then lifted one of the woman’s legs without waiting for her to respond.
“Kyaaa! What are you doing? Perv!”
Hiro tried to feel the dot that continued to emit smoke, and his hand suddenly gripped something small, like a marble.
Ding!
[You got a special orb]
[Critical Hit has increased by 25% (physical damage only)]
[duration 10 minutes]
Hiro immediately went to the second dot. This time, it was located in front of three men who were cheering for the fighters they had chosen.
Ding!
[You got a special orb]
[Kill enemy using any type of guns will give you extra HP for 10 minutes]
And the third special orb was hidden under the ear of a girl who was already anxious and pale when Hiro suddenly stood in front of her and stared at her .
“I’m sorry for this, but it’s on your hair.”
Hiro reached the dot to retrieve the third orb.
Ding!
[You got a special orb]
[Accuracy for ranged-attack has been increased to MAX]
[duration 3 minutes]
“What?”
Not wanting to waste the last buff he had just got, Hiro suddenly jumped onto the wall in front of the girl who was still in shock at his appearance. He faced the battle arena and observed the ongoing battle. He searched for a point where the human team was. They were far more numerous and dominant than the demon team, so it shouldn’t be hard to find them. And he found it.
“What are you doing?! Hurry down! You’re blocking the view!”
Hiro turned to see the person who had just shouted at him. He saw a large man who seemed to be very lousy, so he didn’t dare to join the fight in the duel.
“System call.”
[Vulcan Gatling Gun Machine Level 70 – (Tier A) has been equipped]
When the huge Gatling gun appeared in Hiro’s hand, the people behind Hiro who were annoyed fell silent.
“Let’s try this out!” Hiro muttered with a faint smile on his face. The three buffs he got from the orbs really supported the weapon. And he wanted to try it right now.
Hiro raised the weapon in his hand, facing the spot he had marked. He was ready to shoot, delivering a surprise attack that none of the targets noticed that they had been locked as targets.
Dratataataatata!
