The venue for the new match was a large artificial grass field, on which there were also dry, leafless trees.
The reason there are no leaves is to prevent them from obstructing the audience's view.
These trees are all made of hard sandalwood, and although they are dry, revolver bullets still cannot penetrate their trunks.
There were also some marks of being cut and chopped on the tree trunks, indicating that the contestants had fought fiercely against these trees in this arena.
The stands here are higher than the previous arena, and once the match begins, a sealed artifact will create a barrier to protect the spectators from being hit by stray bullets.
Tonight, a special match is being held here.
To be precise, Lelouch is the most special character among them. He carries a large backpack full of weapons and also has a shield that seems to be of little use.
The reason it was said to be of little use was that the shield was simply too small to stop the bullets fired by his opponent Alva's revolver.
However, after the two sides started fighting, everyone saw a magical scene: "Lelouch" was carrying such a big backpack, yet he moved with incredible speed.
The shield was so small that it couldn't even cover his face, yet it completely blocked the bullets fired from Alva's revolver.
Some extraordinary individuals in the audience clearly saw that it wasn't Lelouch's shield that blocked the bullets fired from Alva's revolver, but rather that the bullets, regardless of their angle of attack, were all drawn into the shield!
If your eyesight isn't good enough, it would look like Alva is aiming at Lelouch's shield.
Alva realized that his opponent was not as reckless as he appeared. His equipment had a purpose, and the revolver would hardly be able to hurt him.
Alva then stopped his charge and instead quickly retreated.
At this moment, his entire aura changed rapidly, and his eyes became entirely white, losing the color of his pupils.
A sudden chill ran through the arena, making Odis shudder. He knew that Alva was beginning to use his extraordinary abilities.
This is a "spirit medium" who can summon spirits to fight for him.
Odis also stopped charging. He opened the backpack on his back and took out a long, golden metal rod.
This metal pole is over a meter tall and has a very bright color.
Audrey, sitting in the audience, lacked sufficient knowledge to fully understand how the two players clashed on the field.
But she didn't ask any questions; instead, she listened attentively to the conversations of the people around her.
Sure enough, Audrey vaguely heard someone behind her explain: "...that metal rod must have been made with a lot of spiritual materials from the 'sun' pathway, so it looks bright and warm."
"Look at Lelouch's opponent again. The colors in the space around him seem to have dimmed. He must be using some extraordinary ability related to the undead."
"It is well known that spiritual materials from the 'Sun' pathway are very effective against the spirits of the dead."
At this point, someone asked, "There's no point in them fighting like this. It's like they're just swinging weapons into thin air. And they were so far apart before, they couldn't even hit each other with a revolver, right?"
This was also the question Audrey had just asked. At that moment, Alva was pacing back and forth with heavy steps, seemingly chanting a spell.
Meanwhile, Lelouch was swinging his sword at thin air, which was not as intense as the previous match. It was more like the two of them were doing a comical dance on the field.
However, after listening to the explanation from that person, Audrey realized that she needed to use "spiritual vision" to understand exactly how the two people were fighting.
Sure enough, the voice that had explained earlier laughed and said, "That's because you can't see it."
Audrey remembered the voice, because this person must also be an extraordinary being. Then, using the method she learned from the Tarot meeting to open her "spiritual vision," she activated it.
She immediately saw "Lelouch" wielding a longsword, fighting against several illusory figures.
The illusory figures seemed wary of the golden metal pillar behind Lelouch. Although they outnumbered him, none of them dared to launch a sneak attack on Lelouch from behind.
Moreover, the sword in Lelouch's hand often emitted crackling lightning, so it was definitely not an ordinary sword. The illusory figures also seemed hesitant to approach the sword.
At this moment, Lelouch swung his sword to force back the illusory figures around him, and suddenly took out a red javelin more than a meter long from his backpack.
He pointed at Alva and then threw the javelin.
The javelin made a strange "humming" sound. Even though Lelouch didn't seem to exert any force, it flew a long distance and aimed precisely at Alva.
Alva realized the javelin's sharpness and quickly dodged it. A miraculous scene unfolded: the javelin suddenly turned around and exploded not far in front of Alva.
Boom!
The huge explosion startled the audience. No one expected that a javelin could produce an explosion similar to a small-caliber artillery shell, creating a large crater in the arena.
But what's even more surprising is that the javelin exploded right in front of Alva, yet Alva didn't die! He didn't seem to be seriously injured, but rather took cover behind a tree in a very disheveled state.
At this moment, even those in the audience without supernatural vision realized that the match had gone beyond the realm of fighting; the two fighters were engaged in a fierce battle that they couldn't understand!
Many viewers suddenly felt that this kind of competition seemed a bit terrifying.
On the field, Odis used his "spirit vision" to see that just as the javelin was about to pierce Alva, he summoned a spirit to block in front of him, thus avoiding the explosion caused by the javelin and only suffering minor injuries.
Odis's javelins were similar in principle to "fire bombs," but their power was far less than that of "fire bombs."
The difference is that these javelins have excellent armor-piercing capabilities and the ability to target specific objectives.
Odis only needs to point out the target, and the javelin will fly toward it, with the ability to change direction twice.
However, in terms of "economic efficiency," the javelin is not as cost-effective as the "flame bomb," but the "leader" has already used the "flame bomb," so "Lelouch" obviously cannot use it again.
At this moment, Alva, who was hiding behind the tree, recovered from the explosion and continued to manipulate the undead she had summoned to attack Odis.
Odis took a yellow can from his pouch and threw it toward the undead not far away.
The canned item hit the ground with a soft "thud," and golden powder sprayed out of the can, scattering everywhere.
This is "sun powder" that Odis himself concocted. Although he did not pray to the "Eternal Sun" for His power to enhance the effect of the "sun powder," sprinkling it on the dead still caused them unbearable pain, making them writhe on the ground.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Odis quickly rushed towards Alva.
Although "Spirit Summoners" can summon the dead to fight for them and can also damage the spirits of their targets, they are considered relatively strong in Sequence 7.
Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!
However, their disadvantages are equally obvious: the abilities of the "Sun" pathway and spiritual items are very effective against the undead they summon.
Therefore, the weapon Odis is carrying today was specially made by him to deal with these undead.
He threw another javelin in Alva's direction.
Boom!
The tree was blown in half. Alva quickly dodged the explosion and drew his revolver, firing at Odis.
The explosion was met with enthusiastic applause from the audience. The shock of the explosion excited them greatly, making it even more thrilling than watching previous fighting matches.
Meanwhile, on the field, Alva changed tactics, drawing his silver sword and charging towards Odis.
At this moment, his attack method of summoning the dead had been neutralized by "Lelouch". He had no advantage from a distance, so he planned to fight "Lelouch" while summoning the dead to ambush "Lelouch".
But Alva clearly underestimated Odis's intelligence gathering capabilities and the preparations he had made for this battle.
Lelouch held a shield in one hand and drew his sword, seemingly ready to spar with Alva. But when the two got close enough, the outer shell of the shield suddenly fell off.
On the fallen outer shell, there was an exquisite magic circle. Before Alva could see the structure of the magic circle clearly, the outer layer spontaneously combusted. The flames quickly covered the magic circle, burning away all traces of it.
At this moment, the golden shield that Odis was holding had turned into a silver shield.
Alva thrust out his sword very cautiously, and Odis, who was not very good at swordsmanship, managed to parry it somewhat awkwardly.
Just then, the shield in Odis's hand suddenly flew towards Alva like a projectile.
The two were too close, and the attack was completely unexpected. Alva didn't even have time to grab a spirit to shield himself before being struck in the shoulder by the shield.
The "Gravedigger" path also has a good physique, and Alva is prepared to withstand this attack.
To his surprise, the shield's impact wasn't very heavy, but it seemed to be hanging on his shoulder instead of hitting the ground.
At this moment, when Alva saw Lelouch turn and run away, he immediately realized something was wrong and quickly reached out to remove the shield, only to find that the outer layer of the shield was very sticky and could not be removed at all.
Immediately afterwards, Alva heard a soft "thud" sound. Realizing the danger, he quickly threw away the silver-white sword and reached for it with both hands.
Sizzle~
His clothes were torn, and his shield was taken off, but it stuck to his hands!
At this moment, Odis suddenly fell to the ground.
Boom!
Almost the next second, the shield exploded violently, turning Alva completely black and blowing off both of his forearms!
But he didn't die; he just fainted.
Odis rushed forward and stabbed Alva to death with his sword, then took the "psychic's" silver sword, revolver, and dagger.
He knew perfectly well that the explosion just now wouldn't kill a Sequence 7. After Alva recovered from his injuries, with the help of the undead, he would still be a very difficult enemy to deal with.
Odis couldn't carry a large bag of weapons to subdue the undead every day like he did today, so he simply killed the opponent to eliminate any future trouble.
The audience gasped twice in quick succession. The first gasp came from the unexpected explosion. The second gasp came from Odis's astonishment at killing his opponent right before their eyes.
Suddenly, a loud round of applause, like a solo performance, rang out in the stadium.
The doors to the fighting arena opened, and Manager Bishop walked toward Odis while clapping.
