Shock! The Spell Is In English! Chapter 344 - Battle Invitation

Chapter 344: Battle Invitation

The light green source energy in Beck’s body had an innate affinity with plant-type source beasts, making them easier to tame. It could also speed up the advancement of an item-type source beast’s realm.

What surprised Beck wasn’t the strange-colored source energy he was exuding, but the fact that the source energy in his body was actually so rich. This made him extremely surprised.

That was because the quality of the source energy emitted from Lugh’s body was already comparable to that of a high-level source beast Beast Master.

This kind of talent was rare even in the Beast G.o.d Sect. For a time, Beck valued Lugh even more.

Actually, Beck didn’t know that this was the result of Lugh being able to conceal his strength and s.h.i.+ft his pet.

Since he had to reveal his talent, he had to keep his true trump card. This was the most mature method.

After achieving his goal, Lugh withdrew his source energy and looked coldly at the furious Oliver.

Oliver knew that he had no chance of becoming the champion this time. He could only clench his fists and glare at Lugh.

“Lord Beck, I think what Oliver said makes sense. If his strength doesn’t match his position, I believe that this operation will be suspected by others and will be disliked by the Beast G.o.d.

“Whether I am wronged or not doesn’t count for the time being, but this kind of suspicion will affect the rationality and fairness of the a.s.sessment in the village, thus damaging the reputation of the Iron Cloud Village.”

“Then young man, what do you mean?” At this time, Beck’s att.i.tude towards Lugh had changed a little. His tone had become extremely amiable, and his address had also changed to that of a young man.

“Oliver is the second place in our Iron Cloud Village. Since he has questioned my strength, I will console him by proposing a source beast duel to him today to prove myself, to show fairness!”

Lugh’s voice was much louder. Most of the people present heard Lugh’s request for a duel, and they could not help but burst into an uproar.

Beck looked at the somewhat thin young man in front of him, but his thin and small body displayed an extraordinary bearing. Beck nodded in his heart.

“Sure, I have the authority to act freely with a Guardian’s permission. I will allow this duel.”

Oliver didn’t expect Lugh to make such a request. He was ecstatic, and his gaze towards Lugh gradually became fierce. He thought to himself, ‘Lugh, you asked for this. I will kill your source beast cruelly and make your beast s.p.a.ce empty.’

Seeing Lugh taking the risk to request for a duel, Eddie was a little anxious. He quickly pulled Lugh over and said in a low voice, “Lugh, you are too reckless. You could have won the champions.h.i.+p steadily. Why did you make such an unfair duel?”

“Village Chief, don’t worry. I am just using my own method to fight back against those who want to harm me.”

Lugh had made the suggestion of a duel after careful consideration. Oliver had directly sent someone to attack him. There was no direct evidence for their hesitation. At most, they would make their family spend money to eliminate the disaster.

If that was the case, it would be hard to appease Lugh’s hatred. He decided to kill Oliver’s source beast on the spot under everyone’s gaze.

Earlier, he had displayed a little bit of his strength. At the very least, he could guarantee that Beck would be unbiased against him. After all, no one was willing to offend a young man who could become a powerhouse in the future.

Moreover, Beck’s presence could also prevent Oliver’s family from acting out of desperation after Oliver was crippled. This was another consideration.

Soon, both sides arrived at the colosseum set up in Iron Cloud Village. The colosseum was a large round-shaped dueling arena. It was divided into several dueling arenas, where Beast Masters usually competed against each other or gambled.

There were more than a dozen colosseums, and usually, there wouldn’t be many people. Now that Lugh had issued the dueling application, it attracted the attention of the people in the village, causing the seats in the colosseum to be filled with people.

The village chief, Beck, and the others had already taken their seats in the grandstand. The staff of the colosseum began to make preparations quickly.

Soon, after the preparations were completed, Lugh and Oliver walked to their respective positions and stood still.

Both sides were ready. The duel was about to start.

After the staff standing around the colosseum confirmed the preparations of both sides, they used the power of the unknown crystal source in their hands. The patterns on the stone plate emitted a dazzling blue light.

This light quickly turned into a quadrilateral energy s.h.i.+eld, and the four stone plates became fixed quadrilateral points.

There was a favorite red dot on the round sphere. The place where the red dot was aimed at was immediately projected into a large image and projected into the air, giving the audience a full viewing experience.

Different from the rustic exterior, the inner part of the arena was still very complete. This arena was the crystallization of human source energy technology. All technology served source beasts, and it was also born from source beasts.

It could be seen how much people valued source beasts.

“Lugh, thank you for your stupidity for giving me such a good opportunity. I will also properly thank you in the battle later.” Oliver looked at Lugh with a mocking expression, emphasizing the word ‘thank you’.

“A dog that bites doesn’t bark. I will take what you owe me,” Lugh said coldly.

“Hmph, I’ll see how you can still be so arrogant later.” Oliver’s expression also turned cold.

“Don’t hurt the other party’s life.”

“Don’t attack the other party.”

“Don’t use items and equipment.”

“Above, let the duel begin.”

The staff member in charge of the referee announced the start of the duel after loudly reading out the precautions.

“You will soon pay the price for your stupidity,” Oliver said slowly as he looked at Lugh with a cold smile.

After saying that, Oliver activated his source energy.

A light green pattern appeared behind Oliver, and a swift figure jumped onto the battle platform like an afterimage.

A mantis-type source beast with a dazzling and colorful appearance appeared. Bright five-colored patterns crisscrossed all over its body, and its slender scythe appeared incomparably sharp. The insect wings on its back carried a colorful phosph.o.r.escence, making it look like an elegant n.o.ble.

When he saw this source beast, Lugh’s eyes finally changed.

At the same time, his expression also became gloomy and cold.

He remembered that this impression was extremely deep. It was the kind that was engraved in his bones.

Oliver had ordered this source beast to heavily injure him. All the information about this familiar appeared in Lugh’s mind.

[Name]: Magic Flower Saber Mantis

[Race]: Bug Clan

[Innate Ability]: Camouflage, Sharp blade speed

The Magic Flower Saber Mantis was the strongest type of mantis-type source beast raised by Oliver’s family. It enjoyed the reputation of being a blade dancer in the Source Beast World. This type of mantis were all outstanding hunters. They had survived the slaughter of their own kind since they were young.

“It’s already reached Mid-tier Gold. If we leave aside its character, I have to admire Oliver’s talent.” After seeing through the Magic Flower Saber Mantis’s level, Village Chief Eddie revealed a worried expression once more.

‘It looks like Oliver really has some tricks up his sleeve when it comes to nurturing mantis-type source beasts,’ Beck thought to himself after seeing the level of the Magic Flower Saber Mantis that Oliver had nurtured.

“Oliver managed to nurture the Magic Flower Saber Mantis to level-10 at such a young age, and the Magic Flower Saber Mantis at the same level far surpa.s.ses the ones trained by ordinary Beast Masters in the outside world. It’s all thanks to Oliver’s family’s secret technique.”

Oliver was indeed an outstanding junior in Iron Cloud Village, but outside of the village, geniuses of this level were already common.

Following that, Beck looked at the cold-faced Lugh with some curiosity and antic.i.p.ation. He paid more attention to this genius with outstanding talent.

Lugh also released his subdued beast s.p.a.ce, releasing the pet beast in his body.

The scarlet source energy was like flowing blood. The rich source energy almost condensed into a liquid. The terrifying compound eyes of the source beast that came out of the subdued beast s.p.a.ce emitted a scarlet light.

“Roar!”

The scarlet compound eyes let out a huge roar. They constantly rubbed against each other, producing hook claws and deafening roars. It emitted an intense belligerent aura from its body.

Oliver looked at the formidable enemy’s source beast and was stunned for a moment.

Following that, a mocking smile appeared on his face as he said, “Scavenger Fly? Your first source beast is actually a weak Scavenger Fly. Hahaha, even I feel a little sympathy for you.”

“Scavenger Fly? No way, it’s actually a Scavenger Fly known as the environmental cleaner.”

“This difference is too big…”

“This is too surprising. I don’t doubt that his brain was filled with water.”

The spectators on the stage had strange expressions on their faces. After all, Scavenger Flies were famous source beasts of trash. To the champion’s first source beast, it was actually a Scavenger Fly. All of them looked at each other in disbelief.
