Chapter 1283: Chapter 1191: Encountering the North Mountain Evil Fire Again

"This kid is really unlucky, just lost a million, and now he’s blown another piece of equipment. He must be cursing his mother out of frustration right now."

Su Ran picked up the helmet with a chuckle, glanced at it, and felt instantly delighted to find it was level 40 golden equipment.

"Next time we meet, I’ll try to make the black armor blow out, then sell it to him at a high price. It’s a no-lose deal!"

Su Ran couldn’t help grinning from ear to ear. With the boss Overturning Water being so rich, how could his gear be cheap? It was sure to fetch a high price! Not only that, the remaining members of the Earthly Fiend Group were elite players with meticulously chosen top-quality equipment. Just blowing up one of these pieces meant hitting the jackpot. This was truly a great place to strike it rich!

However.

The comments section below the live streaming platform, where a group of players had been viciously trolling Su Ran, suddenly went silent. Even the hired commenters employed by Overturning Water didn’t know what to say.

The comments section fell into a silence as dead as the grave for half a minute; not a single comment appeared.

Another half-minute passed, and the players’ messages started to trickle into the comments section again, all sorts of things being said, and the discussions heated back up.

"Look at this Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained guy, how shameless can you get? Gets a million in his hands and immediately turns his back, is that human behavior? I really feel that million wasn’t worth it!"

"Black, totally ruthless. Overturning Water must be about to faint in the bathroom. Even with all that money, you shouldn’t waste it like this!"

"Even this kind of person can become a director of Wei’s Group, what kind of top enterprise is that? Psh! Looks like that company isn’t far from going under!"

"Tsk tsk, earning a million in a few minutes, no wonder Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained would forfeit. If it were me, I’d forfeit too!"

...

Who knows what Overturning Water would think upon seeing these comments, but those paid commenters never posted again and mysteriously vanished from the section.

But for Overturning Water, today was his unlucky day, with his luck hitting rock bottom. Not only did the million vanish into thin air, but he also lost a level, and even his helmet got blown out—this scene was so pathetic he couldn’t help but compose a poem to match his mood!

And as for Su Ran, one of the parties involved, he was completely oblivious, not giving Overturning Water a second thought, happily standing on the arena stage waiting for the next prey to appear.

In his view, this tournament was like having bosses delivered to him, with players being just like bosses whose defeat would result in looted equipment—and all of it finely crafted and ready to use, without needing any appraisal. What a great situation!

Since the system was being so generous, Su Ran wasn’t one to feign politeness and certainly wouldn’t miss out on this opportunity. He was counting on these players for a windfall during this period. If he could blow some special equipment like the Ancient Relic or something, that would be so comfortable, roar!

Speaking of the Ancient Relic, the image of a person popped into Su Ran’s mind, especially the green hat on top of his head which seemed to emit a green glow in his thoughts.

"Green Hat guy, I wonder if I’ll encounter you in the arena. Please don’t get knocked out in the Heavenly Gang Group, you have to wait for me!"

You see, this Green Hat player was Su Ran’s lucky star; thanks to his introductions, Su Ran had the chance to own several Ancient Relics. How could he not properly thank him?

"Whoosh!"

Just when Su Ran was distracted, an invisible fluctuation occurred opposite him, and a player dressed as an elf appeared not far away, locking eyes with Su Ran. The player’s gear, all woven from leaves, and a baby-faced roundness, clutching a Golden Crossbow in hand; by looks alone, it seemed quite out of the ordinary.

Without a doubt, this player was Su Ran’s friend, Banana.

"Damn, Spilt Water bro, how did I run into you? The system must be up to something!"

Upon seeing Su Ran, the fighting spirit in Banana’s eyes instantly vanished without a trace, and he became listless, complaining to Su Ran, "I had a hard-earned winning streak of nine games, just one more win to get a revive chance. And now this, all for nothing, sigh, my life is so hard!"

"There’s nothing to be done, it’s the system’s random allocation; if anyone’s to blame, it’s the system. Besides, there aren’t many players left in the Earthly Fiend Group; it was only a matter of time before we ran into each other."

Su Ran helplessly curled his lips. The tournament didn’t care whether contestants knew each other or not; once matched, they had to fight to determine a winner. When he noticed the Golden Crossbow in Banana’s hand, a flash of delight crossed his eyes, "Banana, you’ve leveled up to 40?"

Su Ran had obtained the Golden Crossbow from a treasure chest and remembered clearly that it was a level 40 golden weapon. He was impressed to see how much progress Banana had made in just a few days.

"Heh, thanks to the experience charm you gave me, Brother. Otherwise, it would’ve been tough to equip the Golden Crossbow before the tournament started."

Banana was quite pleased with the crossbow, evident from his excited tone. After flicking the crossbow in his hand, he continued, "You have no idea, Brother. Not only is the firing rate of this crossbow high, but the attack range has also increased a lot. Fighting with it is just so cool!"

"Haha, congratulations!"

Seeing Banana’s happiness, Su Ran genuinely felt happy for him. Thinking about levels, Su Ran reflected on his own situation. He had all the necessary equipment but was behind in levels. Even his pets’ levels were suffering. After finishing the event and storyline, he’d have to buckle down and level up. With his special item, the Experience Hourglass, leveling up would indeed be like adding wings to a tiger!

"Spilt Water Bro, I really don’t want to be your enemy. Hopefully, I won’t run into you again next time. I need to show off more in the tournament!"

Eager to move on to the next match, Banana didn’t wait for the system prompt and directly forfeited, leaving the arena.

"With Banana’s strength, he could be ranked near the top in the Earthly Fiend Group, and it’s very likely he’ll make it into the top ten."

Su Ran highly regarded Banana’s prospects, especially since he had a hidden class, which gave him an advantage over regular players. Looking at the vacant arena, Su Ran muttered softly to himself, "Who will my next opponent be?"

"Whoosh!"

The familiar spatial fluctuation occurred again, and a figure slowly materialized, standing opposite Su Ran—a mage player clad in fiery red, even the hair was burning red, a conspicuous symbol of identity. Su Ran recognized the person at a glance; it was undoubtedly North Mountain Evil Fire!

"Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained, we meet again."

North Mountain Evil Fire, upon seeing Su Ran on the arena, paused for a moment, viciousness gleaming in his eyes as he said with a chilling tone, "This time, I won’t give you the chance to summon your pets!"

"I hope so."

Seeing his opponent was North Mountain Evil Fire, Su Ran unexpectedly felt exhilarated, and the slight regret in his heart dissipated. Having interacted with him in a previous match, Su Ran understood this guy’s arrogance and didn’t take his words to heart. He retorted, "How do you manage to cast instantly?"
