Chapter 981: Chapter 612: The Competition in the Hall_1
At this moment, looking at the expectant expression on the pale face of Benson, the subordinates present all frowned, each showing a solemn expression.
Just as Hod had once said, this Dragon’s Lair city lord, nicknamed “Skull-Crushing Madman,” had a strength only at the peak level of Tier 3.
However, he exuded an unorthodox air of brutality and even vaguely possessed a scent of death.
Taylor, Gideon Black, Randall, and the battle-hardened Burt and Joshua were all familiar with this kind of brutality.
It was only after countless times of crawling out of piles of dead bodies on the bloody battlefield that one could forge this unique death energy.
Although there was no killing intent in this aura in front of the Lord, it was filled with a desire for battle.
“Although the Lord’s strength is also at the peak level of Tier 3, he is a powerhouse of Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation. His energy reserves are far beyond Benson’s,”
At this moment, Burt’s aged face, with furrowed white eyebrows, pondered, “However, Benson’s years of battlefield experience, coupled with his almost pathological craving and remarkable talent for battle, make him nearly invincible among Tier 3 powerhouses.”
“Because of this, even if he encounters a Tier 4 powerhouse whose strength is far beyond his own, Benson can still pose a certain threat through his unusual combat instincts and skills, which is why Hod is wary of him.”
Thinking about this, Burt’s wrinkled face became even more serious.
In summary, although their strengths were the same on paper, the Lord still needed to further hone his combat experience.
On the other hand, Benson had almost maxed out his potential, and the outcome of a one-on-one fight was obvious.
“Our Lord is worth a fortune. How could he take part in such a competition?”
The somewhat angry clear voice rang out. Among the subordinates present, Bianca White, who was also at the Tier 3 peak level like Leo Ray, took a step forward with furrowed brows and said, “If you want to fight, fight me!”
“A little girl from the Snow Wolf Clan, huh?”
Looking at the fluffy, erect ears atop Bianca White’s head, Benson’s pale face revealed a hint of disdain as he smiled and said, “If it’s in human form, I’m confident that I can defeat you within 2 minutes without harming you. If it’s in wolf form, then at most 3 minutes.”
Seeing the smile on Benson’s pale face growing stronger, he continued, “Unfortunately, you are not a match for me.”
“As for the others in the same field, they have all reached Tier 4 level. If they go all out, there is no possibility of me winning.”
Before Bianca White could retort, Benson shrugged his shoulders and continued.
Of course, he was being somewhat modest.
Among the subordinates, Taylor and Red Night – two Tier 5 powerhouses – were not to be mentioned, as they could kill Benson instantly.
Leah, Randall, Burt, Joshua, Gideon Black, and the elusive Serena Clark and Stella Clark (seven people in total), could also easily defeat him.
However, it remained uncertain whether Ariel Watson and Scarlett, just breaking Tier 4 level, magic-type powerhouses, would win unless they maintained a considerable distance.
“Furthermore, I’m not asking the Lord to be able to defeat me, just as long as he can withstand me for 3 minutes, it counts as the Lord’s victory,”
Benson then graciously smiled at Leo Ray and the other subordinates before continuing.
However, due to his scarred face and the faint air of brutality that emanated from him, the smile appeared uglier than a cry.
“You just said that you could defeat me in 2 minutes, but now you need the Lord to hold on for 3 minutes. What kind of strange logic is that?”
Bianca White’s white-tail tip brushed the ground in agitation, and her azure-blue pupils were filled with fury.
“Don’t be impatient, little girl from the Snow Wolf Clan. As you said earlier, our Lord is worth a fortune. Naturally, I will not give it my all, so the time will be relatively longer. Of course, I won’t use any weapons either,”
Showing Bianca White another ugly smile, Benson then turned back to Leo Ray.
He bowed and said, “My Lord, I have no other intention, but only want to remind you that even though there are many powerful people around you, the Lord cannot lack self-preservation ability.”
“Only when I am assured that the Lord has some self-preserving strength can I focus on fighting and killing the enemy at the front.”
After his words, Benson bowed again, his gaze unwavering.
“I see,”
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly.
Without saying more, he already had a considerable amount of hidden trump cards.
Even if he only used Absolute Elemental Defense Barrier scrolls, he could remain unscathed for 15 minutes.
Although a costly Absolute Elemental Defense Barrier scroll could only protect him for 10 seconds, he still had 92 of them in his possession.
Moreover, he was also carrying 24 Earth Guardians with Tier 3 Seven-Star skills, 2 Sky Guardians with the same strength, 18 Tier 3 Peak Ice Knights, and 20 Divine Archers of the same strength.
These alone would be more than enough to cope with the joint attacks of several Tier 4 powerhouses and dozens of Tier 3 powerhouses.
