Ye Zi did not argue with Mei anymore, but asked, "Then you must know where we are?"
"This is the Arena of the God of War. The God of War sets the rules and people fight to the death. The most powerful thing about the Shadow Gun is that it can suck people who are fighting within a certain range into this space. Any space magic and escape props are useless here. Everyone will be separated according to their camps. When the light curtain falls, both sides must fight. Only when all the people on one side are dead or kneel down and surrender, can the remaining people leave the battlefield."
“It’s a brutal place.”
"It is also a place of honor. The Valkyrie has led us to countless victories here. Now it is your turn."
"Fighting? I'm not afraid of that. Javier, you stay out of the way. Let's defeat them." Ye Zi touched Javier's head.
"No, no." Mei waved her hands and said, "Little Leaf, this is your battle, not mine."
Ye Zi looked at her in surprise. Originally in the carriage, Mei was obviously prepared to take action herself, but now she seemed to have changed her mind.
"Although you are holding the Anti-Shadow Gun, your current strength is still far from that of us former subordinates. Therefore, I, Metatron, the Valkyrie's former right-hand man, will naturally let you grow up as quickly as possible. Otherwise, you will not be able to tame those guys in the Tower of Shining Wings. Today is a good opportunity for practice." Mei's expression and appearance now do not look like a subordinate, but like a mentor.
"But I never wanted to tame you, and I never wanted to get anything from you. I don't even know why I have to fight to the death with these people in front of me."
Mei's gaze shifted from Ye Zi's face to the Shadow Gun. Countless fine runes on the gun were jumping, as if the Shadow Gun was full of expectations for the next battle. She said, "It's too late. When the Shadow Gun recognized you as its master, you were already in this position. Even if you don't want to be the leader of the Tower of Shining Wings, do you think those self-righteous war angels will tolerate a weak person standing in this position? They would rather this Valkyrie not exist than see a weak person like you fall easily in front of a strong enemy, right
Or do you think the Temple of Nature will tolerate the return of the Valkyrie? You must know that after the death of the God of War and the slumber of the God of Nature, the Temple of Nature and us have a basic truce: we will no longer participate in any affairs related to God and will no longer reveal our identities to the world. But your appearance is likely to break this balance.
Not to mention the paranoid guys in the Temple of War God. They have always believed that we War Angels are traitors to the God of War. You are the last symbol of the spirit of the God of War. It would be very attractive to capture you and make you a decoration in the room of the high priest!"
Metatron's words contained a lot of information, but no matter what, they were all warning Ye Zi that she must become stronger quickly.
Ye Zi held the gun and took a starting stance, then turned back and said to Mei: "If I am willing to fight, it is not because someone put me in a certain position, but because I think this fight is right."
"These people are just the scum of the Shadow Group of the Temple of Nature. I guess their target may not be Javier, but you. Does this give you a reason to fight?"
"That's enough."
"There is a high-level assassin, three mid-level assassins and one low-level assassin on the opposite side."
"OK."
"Aren't you surprised and worried? You are still a step away from the intermediate level. Even with the help of a divine weapon, you can only deal with an intermediate-level opponent at most."
"No matter how much you say, the result will be the same, that is beating!"
Metatron laughed, "Then get ready. The light curtain is about to fall."
—————————
Orva and his four men stood in a circle with their backs to each other, weapons in hand.
They didn't even have much time to pay attention to the enemies opposite them, but were overwhelmed by the changes in the surrounding scenes.
"Lord Orva, have we fallen into the enemy's trap? Where is this place?" asked a subordinate.
"No matter where this is... We are involved in something serious. Don Sancho is right. These people are very problematic." Orva looked around and finally his eyes fell on the three people opposite.
"My Lord. What shall we do?"
"There are many strange things in this world. But one thing is true, that is, whoever has the force has the final say. I feel that this arena is for us to fight with the opponents. We will knock down the three opponents first and interrogate them clearly. I don't believe that the five of us can't deal with two women and a child!"
"Yes!" Seeing that Orva had a plan, the others calmed down.
——————————
As soon as the light curtain fell, Ye Zi burst out with fighting spirit and leaped out like a meteor. The anti-shadow gun in her hand also burst out with light, which complemented the light on her body. Waves of warmth flowed from the gun into her body, making her feel that her strength, agility and perception had been greatly improved.
What's even more amazing is that as long as she holds this gun, she seems to have a kind of battle-hardened intuition. She can understand the purpose of the opponent's actions with just one glance. And the weaknesses and flaws in their actions are like bright lights in the dark night in her eyes.
Is this the power of the awakened artifact? The feeling she had with the Shadow Gun was much stronger than when she and Serinda were practicing.
Orva on the opposite side gave a short command.
The two mid-level assassins behind him flashed magic halos in their hands and disappeared on the spot.
Another mid-level assassin ran quickly, preparing to go around Ye Zi's side to attack. The last low-level assassin raised the crossbow in his hand, pulled the trigger, and three crossbow arrows shot at Ye Zi's chest and abdomen at the same time.
Orva pulled out a short knife and held it in his backhand. With a sneer on his face, he blocked Ye Zi's way. Ye Zi knew that this was the high-level assassin that Mei mentioned. He probably believed that no matter how powerful a low-level warrior was, he would not be a match for a high-level assassin in a hand-to-hand fight, right
The three crossbow arrows only slightly interfered with Ye Zi's progress. She shook the tip of her gun and shook the three crossbow arrows away. The tail of one of the crossbow arrows hit her arm, but a layer of light film rippled on her body, which easily bounced the crossbow arrow away.
The Anti-Shadow Gun actually has a layer of protection on itself
Without time to think, she had already rushed in front of Orva, nodded like a phoenix, and the tip of the gun shook out an afterimage, and stabbed towards the opponent's chest.
Orva blocked with his knife, and after seven or eight crisp sounds, he actually took a step back. Ye Zi then stabbed the opponent in the heart with a single killer move.
Orva dodged hastily. He had not expected that this low-level warrior's strength and skills were far beyond his expectations. If he fought her in a one-on-one duel, he might not be able to win.
Fortunately, he was not alone.
