The Ultimate Evolution

The short man nodded . "Deal . Now, who"ll go first?"

The people on Sheyan"s side started getting excited . They all stood up and asked to go first . None of them seemed to take the fight seriously at all .

Of course, there were many reasons for this, the biggest of which was because the previous conversation Sheyan had with Cyborg No . 1 was through telepathy, so the content of the conversation did not leak to the others .

Sheyan"s response was to turn around and gave the group an ice-cold stare until they sensed that something was wrong and calmed down . He told them word by word, "There"s no need to argue . I"m going first!"

"Do you know why I"m going first? Because you f*cking b.a.s.t.a.r.ds are taking the enemy lightly! I have no idea how you guys managed to live for so long . Haven"t you realised how terrifying this world is? You actually made the mistake of getting overconfident at such a crucial time! If it wasn"t for the fact that I need to preserve everyone"s strength for the rest of the mission, I would be really tempted to just let you dive headfirst into the fight and lose miserably!"

Some of the team still did not think much of his warning, but Sheyan"s authority in the team had already stabilised by now, and every word he said had the moral high ground, so no one refuted him . More importantly, all of them realised that if the enemy really was dangerous, then Sheyan, being the first to face them, would face the biggest risk!

When they thought about this, some of them even had a trace of respect in their eyes .

　　***

Sheyan stepped forward and looked at the short man as he said, "I"ll go first . Who"s my opponent?"

"You? Are you sure you want to go first?" asked the short man .

Sheyan remained standing where he was and replied calmly, "I"m sure . Are you my opponent?"

The short man shook his head as a middle-aged man stepped forward from behind him . The middle-aged man looked very dispirited, like he was someone who carried a large amount of debt and the debt collectors would find trouble with him everyday .

But when the middle-aged man raised his head slightly to look at Sheyan, he truly gave Sheyan a shock, because this man"s previous ordinary and low-key demeanor was only the dark clouds that covered the blazing sun . At this time, his gaze were like the glaring sunlight that pierced through the gaps between the dark clouds, s.h.i.+ning brilliantly and revealing its sharp edge!

As the middle-aged man raised his head, the bones in his entire body cracked, and a natural armour formed on the surface of his skin . The most bizarre thing was that his face was completely covered by his skin, except for a spot which was originally between his eyebrows . There, the muscles twisted and crisscrossed, forming a spiral-shaped hole! It was so dark inside the hole that it seemed to surge with endless darkness .

This middle-aged man"s limbs became slender and muscular . Several crystals were embedded deep within his skins and muscles, obviously providing him with powerful strengthening effects . The crystals were all embedded in key areas such as the temples, the chest, the navel and the knees . Sharp bone protrusions grew out from his elbows and other joints; with one look, Sheyan could tell that they were extremely lethal weapons!

"A complete transformation of this degree . . . !" All the contestants could not help but feel shocked .

The man bent down slightly, and the next second, he was already in front of Sheyan . He raised his elbow high up and smashed it down hard! His strength and speed did not feel inferior to a Growth Hunter at all! The sharp bone spike on his elbow seemed to be filled with great power as it slammed down!

Sheyan raised his hand to block, and the bone spike immediately pierced through his palm, causing a large amount of blood to gush out . A spiral pattern could be seen at the tip of the bone spike . Evidently, it could also be shot out in a spiral when necessary .

The reason Sheyan decided to take the attack was to gauge the opponent"s attributes . The encounter only lasted for two to three seconds before Sheyan pushed the enemy"s elbow away with a shout . Then, he took large strides forward and sent a knee to the enemy"s lower body .

However, the knee hit nothing but air . The enemy had higher Agility than Sheyan and had quickly retreated more than twenty meters away . But Sheyan had also noticed after the short exchange that the frequency at which the enemy"s chest rose and fell seemed a little high, and on his seemingly smooth flanks were two neat rows of holes that looked like fish lips, which seemed to help him breathe .

"Was he also testing me with that attack?" Sheyan could not help thinking .

In the next second, Sheyan was amazed to discover that the muscles around the only eye on the enemy"s head had distorted, and the deep darkness within had suddenly turned into a blank white . The whiteness was eerie and terrible, like a dead man"s eyes!

Then, the enemy touched the tip of the middle finger on his left hand to his eye . But nothing seemed to happen .

However, when everyone"s attention was drawn to the man"s head, a transparent ray of light shot out from a crystal in the middle of his chest!

Those weird actions as well as the strange eye were all a feint to cover for this blow!

The ray of light was very faint . If you concentrate on it when it was just emitted, you could still vaguely discern it, like you were looking through a layer of extremely clean and polished gla.s.s .

But after the sharp transparent light shot forward for two or three meters, it completely vanished in the air, until it landed squarely on Sheyan"s body! Sheyan did not react to the attack at all . Even with his amazing Perceptive Sense, he did not notice anything out of the ordinary, say nothing of the audience .

At the moment the ray landed, Sheyan did suddenly have a very bad premonition, making his hair stand on end and causing chills to creep down his spine, but he could not find the source of the problem at all!

The enemy would not give Sheyan any time to think . He was already charging straight at Sheyan with a terrifying momentum and extreme confidence, as if he was already certain of his victory!

Sheyan was still standing in place . He crouched low with his hands slightly bent on both sides of him . This was a posture that was both offensive and defensive, and also the most secure tactic he could use right now .

While the enemy was sprinting over, he suddenly leaped up and curled his body into a high-speed spinning ball . A crystal on his body exploded, and three spiralling spikes were shot out of him . When the spikes cut through the air, they made sharp hissing noises which were so strong that it felt like the noises themselves could cause an area of effect damage!

Because Sheyan had already had his palm pierced through by a sharp spike before this, he was not too concerned with these three spikes . He only raised his left hand to protect his eyes while paying full attention to the enemy"s every move, because not only had the ominous feeling in his heart not faded away, it had gotten even more intense .

With a soft thud, the three sharp spikes pierced into Sheyan"s skin at the same time, and then . . . . penetrated into his body and drilled out of the back, dragging along with them a huge amount of flesh and blood!!

"What . . . . What"s happening?" The shock Sheyan felt at this moment was hard to describe . The intense pain was only secondary to him . The key was the following information which appeared on his battle log:

[ You received a piercing attack from the enemy, your HP is reduced by 438 points! ]

[ You received a piercing attack from the enemy, your HP is reduced by 412 points! ]

[ You received a piercing attack from the enemy, your HP is reduced by 459 points! ]

But Sheyan clearly remembered that when the same sharp spike pierced through his palm before this, it only did a few dozen points of damage . Now, the three sharp spikes had combined to give Sheyan a staggering damage of 1200 points!

How did the enemy"s tentative attack become so terrifying???!!

The enemy was already close to Sheyan by now . Sheyan was just about to instinctively fight back when a large amount of sticky yellow substance was ejected from the enemy"s dead white eye to bind Sheyan . The enemy then approached Sheyan while roaring deafeningly from his chest .

"Turn to ashes under the greatness of The Fool, ye lowly ant!"

Then, the man stretched his hands out and tightly held Sheyan, who was unable to break free of the restraint . At that instant, the two people abruptly burned with a green flame which spread two to three meters around them, then shot straight into the sky . They streaked across the night sky like a shooting star to disappear in the jungle hundreds of meters away, causing a huge explosion when they landed!

The man who called himself The Fool was obviously a sly one . Fearing that the rest of the contestants would intervene, he had changed the battle ground! Pokan and Aldaris immediately stepped forward to protest .

"Hey, what"s the meaning of this?"Sheyan turned around to look at his companions . They did not look like they had any objection . On the contrary, they all seemed rather impatient and had started talking to each other . Sheyan thus told the little man, Dont worry, as long as they dont do anything stupid like attacking us unprovoked, Im not interested in killing the weak . . . . . The short man nodded . Deal . Now, wholl go first? The people on Sheyans side started getting excited . They all stood up and asked to go first . None of them seemed to take the fight seriously at all . Of course, there were many reasons for this, the biggest of which was because the previous conversation Sheyan had with Cyborg No . 1 was through telepathy, so the content of the conversation did not leak to the others .
