Chapter 300: Rule Cards
"What dark plot? Can’t you handle it?"
"Is someone forcing you to gamble?"
"This is not a dark plot; my treasure is just too amazing!"
"If you bet on my treasure to win, wouldn’t there be less to argue about?"
Some accused of a dark plot, while others cheered for Karoso, causing a loud uproar in the audience.
Alita sat outside the arena, crossing her legs, with a smile on her face.
She knew when she made these cards that they would create a storm; she didn’t expect it would happen so quickly.
A consulate member from the Knight Association furrowed his brow and looked at the person next to him from the Wizard Association, "What happened here?"
That wizard was an eighth-tier wizard, the strongest in the arena, belonging to a commanding position.
Seeing Karoso change the opponent’s spell, this wizard also furrowed his brow deeply.
"That knight isn’t using some kind of blessing, right? At first, that spell had harmful power," the wizard replied.
"That’s right," the consulate member nodded. "He must be using an epic attack card, Hammer of Light. This kind of spell has strong destructive power and is very effective against undead and demons."
"Perhaps that’s the secret reason. We wizards have a Secret Card that counters spells; it reflects the enemy’s spell and can change the spell… This involves the rules. Which master created this card? It has never appeared on the market before," the wizard said seriously. "Not only this card, but the servant he summoned, which must be dealt with, also touches on the rules. This Karoso, his backing is quite extraordinary…"
This type of card is a huge shock for wizards!
You must understand, it is very difficult for wizards and Nature Mages to engage in close combat. Changing spells like this…
If on the battlefield, if a wizard releases Flamestorm and it is countered by such a secret, turning into a group blessing, that would be laughable!
Moreover, the wizard had no idea what that card of Karoso’s really was.
If Karoso were an ordinary person, they could be captured and asked, but clearly, Karoso is not.
The son of Grand Duke Osiris also lives in the Church of the Dawn Goddess, so…
The focus returns to the arena.
When Karoso rushed closer, the knight finally reacted.
Unfortunately, it was already too late; Karoso was always the type to take advantage of a weakness.
Bang!
Karoso’s great sword clashed with his longsword, and the knight was pushed back four or five steps due to his slow reaction and weaker strength.
He was about to use another spell, but the four glowing points above Karoso’s head made him think twice.
Just at that moment of hesitation, Karoso moved forward again.
Bang!
With a strike of his sword, Karoso made the knight step back, his armor beginning to lose its shine.
With another swing, the knight instinctively fought back…
The familiar attendant, the familiar Holy Shield, the familiar middle finger, the knight struck the attendant with his sword.
Seeing this, Karoso quickly swung his sword and launched a fierce attack.
In less than ten breaths, Karoso knocked the knight out of the arena.
"Oh, my goodness!" the host exclaimed, "Karoso Colloa has once again finished the battle first! Let’s pause the broadcast and have Karoso come up to say a few words!"
If the audience continued to shout for darkness, he wouldn’t know how to host the show.
Although all four screens were showing images of the battle, the audience’s attention was clearly no longer on them.
Soon, Karoso came to the host’s side.
"Karoso, I would like to interview you. How did you win just now?" the host handed the microphone to Karoso.
"Are you trying to make me reveal my weaknesses?" Karoso shot a glance at the host.
"No way, I can’t reveal!"
"A win is a win; if you can’t take it, don’t play!"
Karoso didn’t say much more, and the female audience members were not pleased.
"Okay, let me guess. Is that secret card able to turn his attack spells into blessings?" The host looked at Karoso with a pleading expression.
"No comment," Karoso replied calmly.
"Ahem…" At that moment, the steward of the Wizard Association stood up and quickly spoke above the crowd, "Silence."
His voice seemed to have magic; as soon as he spoke, the hum of the audience grew quieter, and everyone settled down.
"There are no hidden tricks in this match. The changes in the spells are the secret skill of contestant Karoso," the steward said calmly. "Revealing his ability would be unfair to him, so please, do not press for answers."
……
After the match, Karoso and Aileen went to Moonlit Beauty to have some drinks.
In this battle, both of them successfully made it into the top sixty-four.
"Karoso, do you really think those knights are that desperate for money?" Aileen said with a frown. "For an entire afternoon, people who know it’s the Knight Tournament might think they’re actually choosing an idol! Those knights were strutting around like peacocks, showing off all sorts of nonsense."
Throughout the afternoon, all kinds of fancy competitions took place.
One after another, knights who fought on the battlefield started to showcase their talents that afternoon, and surprisingly, many of them impressed the audience.
Aileen felt very upset, really upset; her idea of a knight was not like this.
Knights can indeed have their own talents, their own lives, and can participate in events like this, but combining them with fighting felt very strange to Aileen.
What are those people really fighting for to win honor, their own strength or their six-pack abs?
And those female knights too, don’t they know to be a bit more modest?
Watching some female knights dress revealingly while singing and dancing, Aileen wanted to rush up and chop them down; she felt they were tarnishing the name of knights!
Um…
However, the netizens really love watching this; this afternoon was a treat for them.
"That’s why I keep saying, the Knight Tournament has really changed," Karoso shook his head and took a sip of his drink. "Don’t think too much about it; you can’t change it for now."
"Hmph, I will definitely complain afterwards, complain, and make this Knight Tournament return to the way it was before, not like a clown show!" Aileen said angrily.
Seeing Karoso’s gaze start to drift, Aileen followed his eyes and looked over.
There, just a few days ago, was the young woman dressed in revealing clothes, still drinking, while keeping an eye on the tavern. Aileen immediately felt anger rising within her.
"Why are you acting like this?!" Aileen said, puffing up with anger. "Isn’t she just wearing less? You big young master, are you going to go flirt with her?"
"Excuse me, is this Lord Karoso Colloa?"
Just then, a person dressed in black came over and interrupted Aileen.
"That’s me," Karoso nodded.
"There is an auction later. I’m not sure if you are interested?"
