Surviving As An Extra In Fantasy World Isn't Easy

Chapter 122 122:Provocation

?

CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!

Without missing a beat, Frederick unleashed a furry onslaught of spear thrusts towards Sheldon who hid behind his shield.

Azure-coloured mana erupted from the shield making it bigger which deflected rapid spear strikes. Defending skillfully, he placed his hands on the waist and pulled out a mace.

As soon as he got the chance, with a swift motion he pulled out his mace and with a swinging motion slashed at Frederick.

CLING!

Frederick was quick to block the mace with his spear. From that position, Frederick spun the spear around and performed a rapid thrust at the opponent's chest.

Sheldon swiftly sidestepped while raising his shield to block with a calculated movement. He then used the momentum of pulling back to swing his body to deliver a roundhouse kick aimed at Frederick's chest.

TANG!

His feet kicked off the shaft of the spear pushing Frederick a few steps back.

"You surely have some skills."Frederick acknowledged Sheldon.

"Hmph! What did you think of me? I am ranked 6 for a reason. I always wondered how you get that position but after getting hit before I realised that you might have used your bloodline power to slow down the time to attack me."Sheldon then smiled, casting a mocking smile.

"Let me tell you something. Without using your bloodline power, you can't defeat me. My house is called Turtle of Wales. Our defence is impenetrable so I don't think you can break my full-force defence."Sheldon commented with an arrogant expression.

"I see!"Frederick lowered his spear, sinking into deep thought.

"My next attack. If you can block my next attack, I will step back."

"Are you mocking me?"Sheldon roared angrily.

"I am just stating the facts. And I promise, I won't use my bloodline power."

Without speaking further, Frederick took his stance.

Shifting his centre back a bit, Frederick locked his fierce gaze on Sheldon and chanted"Evil Piercer!"

[Azure Dragon Art First Form]

In an instant, a bluish flame swiftly materialised over the spear tip. The flame setting the spear ablaze took the shape of a blue dragon behind Frederick.

Lightening flickered over the flames and an intense pressure radiated from Frederick. Frederick's eyes shone with excitement as he launched himself.

Feeling goosebumps all over his skin, Sheldon places his shield before him, using his bloodline ability.

[Body Hardening]

The shield in his hand glows with a brownish haze. Hard scales emerge from his skin covering his body, solidifying his skin and making it as hard as iron. The shield before him enlarged and covered him with a bluish hue.

Even if he used his best defensive move, his heart felt unsettled.

The energy flowing out of Frederick's body coiled around the spear and Frederick gripped it tightly, ready to strike.

In a split second, a devastating scene unfolded before everyone's eyes.

THWOOSH!

The air whistled and crackled with a sickening crunch as the spear dug a hole in the shield and struck Sheldon.

"Ahhhhhhhhh!"With eyes filled with disbelief, Sheldon let out a cry of pain and the vision before his eyes turned white.

As the spear collided with the shield, the energy compressed over it burst out with a terrifying explosion.

Blood spurted out from his lips and a crackling sound was heard as the spear passed through the flesh and bone. The scales over his body were torn apart and everything was lit up for a moment.

When vision returned to everyone's eyes, all of them gawked at the scene.

Except for the pair of legs everything above the waist was missing and behind him, a large crack extended for many metres.

After a moment, Sheldon's remaining corpses fell on the ground with a loud thud following which everything plunged into silence for a moment.

...

Keep aside the Top 3, five individuals will stand out the most during the Tournament.

Dual Wielder Ezekiel, Magician Monica, Steel Fist Axel Steel, Priestess of Life Ella, and Parth.

Yeah, it might look unbelievable but Parth was really that formidable. Especially if he fights at night with his bloodline powers. If he gives up on hiding his shadow power, you will face a menace for real.

As for Ezekiel, he was already a foe to contend with. During the Tournament when he was forced into a deadlock, he finally showed the world his true prowess.

For Lucas, the chances of winning were almost 30% even if he went all out. However, that would be if Ezekiel fought him in his prime state but now his condition was quite battered. And Lucas's goal wasn't to win but rather to humiliate and destroy his future plans. For the egoistic, getting pushed to this stage was already humiliating enough.

Once Ezekiel exposed his dual wielding, his performance would be affected in the Tournament as his enemies would have prepared quite well.

"I have already shown mercy on you. These grenades were Grade 1 with an effective explosion radius of 5 metres. If I used Grade 2, even that barrier of yours would become useless."

He wasn't lying. Sadly, he used all the Grade 2 ones in the mission otherwise this entire area would be laid to waste.

"Good...Good.."

"You managed to infuriate me."Ezekiel then bursting into laughter pulled out his gauntlets and keeping them inside the ring, pulled out two swords.

His sudden manoeuvre startled everyone who was watching the scene. When Lucas came, most of them didn't even know who he was and now Ezekiel changing his weapons gave them another blow.

Ezekiel who was about to move suddenly heard a loud blast and on witnessing the scene, his eyes popped out of the socket.

Lucas did not attack but rather waited for Ezekiel to recover his senses.

"Sheldon!"Ezekiel's dazed eyes finally moved and fell onto Frederick who looked like a monster in human skin. He knew just how tough Sheldon's defensive scales were but it was blown away by a single spear strike.

This was unbelievable

Frederick noticing Ezekiel's gaze just gave a smug smile infuriating him further.

"I have underestimated you greatly," Ezekiel murmured faintly.

"But not anymore. I am gonna tear you all into pieces and you filthy commoner, you will be first to bear my wrath."With a scream, Ezekiel finally pulled out two blades and dashed towards Lucas.

"I was waiting for that."Lucas smirked.
