Chapter 522 Rapid Progress
The Reptile was killed with one overwhelming slash!
This region of Planet Crimson Curtain was silenced!
"The Shadow Mage is dead!"
Looking at his dead body lying on the streets, the frightened onlookers could not believe it, they felt like they were dreaming.
"The Shadow Mage is dead!" They repeated it to convince themselves.
Cheers erupted across this street the next moment as they celebrated the death of this notorious thief and assassin.
The highlight fell on a single Pugilist with his sword.
Standing with his Lightsaber, Blade looked down at the corpse that he just killed with an indifferent look on his face, he flicked the blood off his blade before keeping it back in its sheath.
"Yo! That was some sick sh*t you just pulled bro!"
"I don\'t think you\'re from the hoods around here nigga, I\'ve never seen you before". The black Mechanic came closer. "Nice to see you brother, I\'m Tom!"
He extended his hand for a handshake.
Blade looked at the hand, he seemed to hesitate for a moment but he took it in the end. "I\'m Blade".
"Damn! So scary!" Tom reacted exaggeratedly, forming a scary face.
Uranus finally arrived at the scene, panting. "Not fair Uncle!"
"You took all the credit!"
Blade looked at him. "The mission is completed, let\'s go back".
"Wait!" A loud voice called the next moment.
Blade recognized him, this was the Grade B guard of the Planet Mayor.
"Thank you young man, the Shadow Mage has been a terror across all neighboring planets for a long time, we\'ve tried countless times without being able to kill him so we kind of gave up".
"We never expected him to grow the guts to attack the mayor though".
"Thank you".
Blade nodded in reply.
"The Mayor is interested in seeing his savior, do you have time to…"
"No".
"Huh?"
"No, I don\'t have time; I need to report to my master".
"Oh, ok, he just wants to see your face then".
"Ok". Blade finally went to meet the mayor who heaped praise on him and thanked him profusely before giving him his contact details.
"Whenever you\'re chanced, visit, I hope to take care of you".
"We will!" Uranus answered excitedly.
While in the process of leaving the planet, the black Mechanic met him again. "Yo, nigga, I see you\'re on your way to submit the bounty?"
"Yes".
"Mind if I tag along?"
Blade simply looked at him without answering, he instead nodded.
Entering the same transport ship, they finally started their journey to Planet Crimson Ring. "So, I noticed something, it seems you\'re not yet in an official mercenary group, what do you think about partnering up with me?"
"You see…"
"Not available". Blade interrupted him.
"Umm…, ok, let me just tell you the benefits to partnering up with me first". He rubbed his hands excitedly.
"You see, I worked in my father\'s workshop all my life until he died, that was when I was unleashed and pursued a career as a mechanic in the mercenary union".
"I\'ve been successful alone so far".
"I\'m extremely resourceful. With me, we can never be stuck in space, I can work with the tiniest of metals to create something out of nothing that can save us from most life-threatening situations, it\'s OP right? I know". He laughed.
"If we combine this quality of mine with your incredible power…" He shifted closer to Blade. "Just imagine how OP of a mercenary duo we\'ll make".
Blade turned his head to glare into his eyes. "Not available".
"…"

The hyperactive activities of the players fattened Legolas\' coffers.
His experience points were increasing with rapid efficiency as this gave him all the motivation that he needed to laze about and watch the tournament.
Compared to the National tournament, the International Dominator tournament was even played faster. The individual battles were already in the quarterfinal stage where 8 players would stage it out in a battle to the death.
Only 1 Chinese player made it to this stage, Desert Gust.
As for the team battles, it was already the Semi-final which was being fought today and it was between the only surviving Chinese team vs an English team.
[International Semi-Finals:]
[Team Blue Autumn vs Team Manchester Warriors!]
The battle was intense and exciting!
Seated in his room with a bucket of popcorn beside him, Legolas enjoyed the thrill of this exciting semi-final alongside millions of players all over the world.
Like usual, the Sword God Raining Sword was the cornerstone of his team as he led them to put up a good fight against the imposing English side.
After multiple versions of growth, Ghost Sentry was no longer the naïve newbie who just made his debut in the professional scene, he was the undisputed 2nd best in the Blue Autumn team as he gave his best to support his captain.
Despite trying their best to get the first kill which they succeeded at, they sacrificed too much as the aggressive counterattack of their English opponents made them lose 2 teammates in quick succession.
The battle was being fought inside a complicated rain forest.
As soon as Blue Autumn lost 2 players at once, they lost momentum. They tried to follow their original plan to retreat and regroup with their 6th player after losing a player but the aggressive English opponents did not let them.
They lost their 3rd player during their retreat, leaving only 2.
Those 2 desperately retreated to meet their 6th player.
Their 6th player was Horny Assassin, the battle already seemed to be lost, this famous player clearly couldn\'t do anything right? So they thought but Horny Assassin proved them wrong in the grandest of stages.
[You have made use of Character Summon Card: Grandmaster Beast Tamer!]
>Grandmaster Beast Tamer: All your beast taming attempts on beasts weaker than you succeed 100% of the times. For beasts of the same grade, they succeed 90% of the time whole for stronger beasts, there is a 45% success rate<
Horny Assassin was unleashed as soon as he activated this character summon card, he transformed his entire battle style on the spot!
Running around the massive rain forest, Horny Assassin tamed every beast on sight. By the time that the duration of the character summon card was finally exhausted, Horny Assassin already tamed 8 Grade D Beasts.
Adding those 8 powerful Grade D Beasts to the remaining 3 players in team Blue Autumn, it became 11 vs 5, the English side stood no chance.
Team Blue Autumn steamrolled their way to a famous victory.
At the end of it, only one\'s player\'s name was sang in poems.
"Horny Assassin!"
"Horny Assassin!"
Seated inside his room in the old Commander\'s home, Legolas stuffed more popcorn into his mouth, he had a wide smile on his face.
"That\'s my boy".
