Summoning the Holy Sword

Chapter 272 - Warm-up Match (11)



As the leader of the White Robe mercenary group, Hubert had always been confident in himself.

As one of the top five mercenary group in the Paphield area, he had always believed that he and his men were qualified. They had the strength to compete for the mercenary guild quota in Paphield. Even if the Burning Blade or Dark Fang mercenary groups were before him, he still wouldn’t be shaken. In his opinion, those two mercenary groups didn’t maintain the top position because they were strong. Currently, Hiller’s Burning Blade was just living off its past glory; they were gradually declining, so he would certainly have the opportunity to surpass him. As for Dark Fang? They were just a group of killers. Were they even qualified to represent the mercenaries in the entire Paphield area?

Hubert always thought that it would be a matter of time before his White Robe mercenary group became the mercenary guild that represented Paphield. However, now, it didn’t seem to be the case anymore.

Starlight had shattered his dream.

But he didn’t give up.

“Everyone, gather your spirit!”

Hubert angrily shouted. He was wielding his sword while looking at the surroundings vigilantly. The other two mercenaries who were wearing the same white robe as Hubert were also looking around cautiously, trying to find the Thief that suddenly disappeared after going up.

After Lize walked down, the next elite groups changed their battle method. They didn’t intend to fight one by one anymore. They realized that based on their individual ability, it was impossible for them to win. However, if there were more people, then those people from Starlight wouldn’t be able to deal with them, right?

It was absolutely impossible.

“Be careful; don’t rush forward!”

Hubert subconsciously reminded his two subordinates so that they would keep their distance and guard each other’s back. They slowly advanced forward, holding their weapons while cautiously looking at the empty ring.

Where the hell is Joey?

“Sigh…”

Joey was crawling on the ground while watching the three people in front of him. He carefully took a breath and slowly moved his body to avoid their sights, staying hidden. If it was the usual, no matter how exquisite his movements, he absolutely wouldn’t be able to stay invisible like this. But now was different, because, in his hands, there was an equipment that able to change the situation.

The Secret Cloak. This was a magical equipment that Rhode had previously acquired in the Rock of Lament. It was able to change color according to the surroundings, concealing the wearer’s body in order to blind the enemy’s eyes. Before Rhode activated Dark Dance Swordsmanship, Rhode often used this equipment to perform a sneak attack. But after he learned Dark Dance Swordsmanship, this equipment didn’t really have much use for him, so he gave it to Joey. Now Joey was able to get away from the three of them by using it.

At this moment, Joey was crawling on the ground, holding his breath, while moving his body slowly from his opponents’ peripheral vision.

Soon, he appeared behind them.

It was a little bit crowded inside the huge Colosseum, so a lot of people were unable to see what happened in the ring. They only saw a person suddenly disappeared, and then, the people from the White Robe mercenary group began to look for him carefully in the direction he had disappeared. This scene also made a lot of people feel some doubt. Joey’s action was also very careful. When he was training in the Mirage, he didn’t learn any special skills like Lize. Because Thief skills were just like this. So there was no way for him to make a breakthrough and change.

The only thing that he could do was use what he had.

Master the essence of Thief skills and utilize its power.

Hubert wasn’t able to find Joey, but he wasn’t not anxious. The ring was big, and if he still couldn’t find him when he walked until the end, didn’t that mean the other party had conceded? If so, then what should he be worried about?

Thump!!

“Ah!!”

At this time, a dull sound echoed, and mixed with crowds’ exclamation, Hubert subconsciously turned around.

Beside him, one of his men was already lying stiffly on the ground, his eyes closed, unconscious.

However, there was no one around him.
