Chapter 88: An Unfair Duel!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Summoner was a Class with an extremely special ability in the Mythical Continent.

Compared to the powerful Melee abilities of warriors, and infinite variety of elemental control techniques over the Elements, the most intriguing or fascinating things about Summoners would be their ability to summon monsters or beasts, their ability to perform Beastform Fusion, and also their ability to capture monsters and beasts, called Monster Capture…

As the name suggested, Monster Summoning was a process where the Summoners used a contract and reached the required level to obtain their ability to summon monsters for their own use.

Beastform Fusion was a process in which players fused together with their summoned monsters and acquired the shared abilities of a human as well as a monster. There would be a minor increase in their final total battle power based on a certain scale of proportion to make up for the insufficient combat effectiveness of the Summoners.

Last but not least, Monster Capture…

Having weakened the state of a monster, Summoners could use Mana Cores of the same level and attributes with the monsters to seal them into the cores. Afterward, the Summoners would only need to pump some magic energy into the cores to summon the monsters out and have them battle on their behalf!

That skill was the most powerful force the Summoners had. However, it was also the skill with the least value…

It required a person to exhaust a tremendous amount of energy to capture a monster. Other than that, Mana Cores with the same attributes were not easy to come by. Not to mention, it would be extremely costly just to get them. Finally… it would still be worthwhile if they succeeded in capturing the monster, but if the attempt failed, the Mana Cores would also get reduced to ash and dust.

Basically, except for a very small number of high-level Summoners who had the financial means to train in the skill, or circulating legends among members of the Summoner Guild, when the skill of Monster Capture was maximized to the highest level, there would only be a certain probability for Summoners to seal a Boss monster…

As for most of the normal Summoners, if there had not been complete products of Monster Summoning Mana Cores crafted by the NPC Summoners in the guild, perhaps they would have completely forgotten about the skill.

***

The Viridian Giantflame Wolf, also known as the monster “summoned” by Crackpot, should be a product that was meticulously crafted by the NPC Summoners in the Summoner Guild.

The Summoning Mana Cores for Tier 4 monsters cost five times more than a Tier 4 Prototype Mana Core, which was already known to be 6,000 gold coins!

So, when Qin Ruo saw that Crackpot had summoned a Viridian Giantflame Wolf regardless of the cost, he finally kept the casual look on his face to himself as he held his breath and fixed his gazed on his opponent. Without even the slightest delay, he rapidly controlled his Frostramparts as they rose from the ground…

The support acquired from such a Monster Summoning Mana Core was at full strength while the monster still lived. Even its HP remained the same. One Level 40 Viridian Giantflame Wolf probably had 3,500 HP. It was not possible for Qin Ruo to take it out. Not to mention, he had yet to cast even one Aquabarrier up to that point of the battle. In the face of a Tier 4 monster, Qin Ruo was exposed to the kind of danger where he could be instantly killed by a multiple magic attack from the Viridian Giantflame Wolf!

By the time he waited for Qin Ruo to activate a Barrier, Crackpot would have shaken off the four-second Frozen Effect… With a Tier 4 Radiant Priest and a Tier 4 monster joining forces, they could gain an absolute advantage over the battle. If Qin Ruo refused to handle the battle seriously, he would definitely end up dead!

In the meantime, far away from the battlefield, Violetmoon Devilite was protesting to Ironjail River Imprisoner and the others.

“Not fair! That’s not fair!

“You guys said that it was going to be a one-on-one duel! He! How could he actually use a Summoning Mana Core?! That’s not fair at all!”

Her voice was loud and clear as she sounded urgent as well as anxious. Some of the men around the area actually felt envious of Qin Ruo after they heard her voice.

‘That brat… Even if he dies, it’ll still be worth it. Having such a pretty girlfriend worrying about him, how is that not happiness?’

However, the surrounding crowd did not respond to Violetmoon Devilite’s efforts…

The people from Netherspirit’s Claw had obviously seen how Qin Ruo used the terrain of the Snow Domain as he almost completely oppressed Crackpot. Not only did he show everyone extremely powerful control, but he was also able to precisely grasp onto the situation and flow of the battle. There was no doubt that he was a very powerful Tier 3 Elementalist…

Crackpot would have lost the duel earlier on if he did not have that Summoning Mana Core with him.

It would be quite a blow to the reputation of Netherspirit’s Claw if Crackpot ever lost to a Tier 3 Aquamancer. As members of Netherspirit’s Claw, they were naturally unwilling to see a situation that did not favor Netherspirit’s Claw unfold before their eyes…

Furthermore, what was wrong with him using his Summoning Mana Core?

It was only a way of showing another one of Netherspirit’s Claw’s strengths—their financial resource!

If he could use it and defeat his opponent through financial means, then it would also be a show of strength. After all, Crackpot was a Radiant Priest. Having a Radiant Priest team up with a monster could really render a lot of people speechless…

Hearing Violetmoon Devilite attempting to protest for him, Qin Ruo felt a warmth in his chest. But he remained vigilant as he did not dare let his guard down even for a moment. He knew that it would be impossible for Ironjail River to interfere with Crackpot’s actions at such a time.

After he calmed his mind, Qin Ruo stared at Crackpot who had come out of his Frozen state. At the same time, the ninth and the tenth Frostramparts also swiftly rose up from the ground around them as Qin Ruo chanted.

Seeing ten Frostramparts standing still in their midst, everyone was shocked…

They had no idea what agenda Qin Ruo had behind his actions, but they saw how calm Qin Ruo got as he relaxed his face in the middle of the formation of Frostramparts. Even though they did not have a solid reason, the crowd suddenly felt that he, who found himself in the face of grave danger because of the sudden change on the battlefield, seemingly gained the strength to pit himself against Crackpot again!

None of them could tell why they felt that way. However, it seemed that Qin Ruo’s tremendous confidence deeply infected everyone in the vicinity…

Much more so for Crackpot who was standing on the opposite side. While he was originally enraged to the point that he wanted to immediately command his Viridian Giantflame Wolf and have Qin Ruo killed, he could not help but sense that he had a wrong impression of Qin Ruo. His opponent was growing stronger by the second when he saw the Frostramparts being summoned up from the ground one after another right behind Qin Ruo.

The unease made Crackpot refrain from immediately commanding his Viridian Giantflame Wolf to lunge over at Qin Ruo. Instead, he decided to choose a safer tactic—he rapidly cast several buffs onto the Viridian Giantflame Wolf to roughly increase its strength. Only then did he command the Viridian Giantflame Wolf to pounce on Qin Ruo.

“Let’s see what sort of deceitful trick you can pull this time!”

At that moment, Qin Ruo had already made use of the extra time he got to cast his Aquabarrier, Aquashield, and also three Aquaramparts… Just as the Viridian Giantflame Wolf and Crackpot made their move, Qin Ruo went up to engage the both of them with his formation of eleven Frostramparts and three Aquaramparts in reserve!
