Aguile vs. Jess

## Story

Jess slowly walks around Chen then speedily attacks with Afterimage. Chen counterattacks with high speed too, which bewilders Jess. The two speedily run around each other, making it hard for the audience to keep track. Qidun asks Arux who is faster.

“Jesse is faster.” Although the two figures in the field were extremely fast, it was just child’s play in Arux’s eyes.

Keithahn had a sudden realization and said, “So, Jesse will win in the end?”

Arux shook his head, “If Jesse’s speed is like lightning, then No. 64 is the wind. Lightning is faster, but the wind blows endlessly. However, Jesse should have an ultimate move that he hasn’t used. For the time being, I am not sure who will win or lose.”

As a dark elf, Jesse has poor stamina, so those who beat him usually outlast him until time is up or wait for Jess to burn out.

Generally, speed and endurance were two relatively extreme qualities. No. 64 actually maintained high speed while not being worn out. Instead, Jesse was the one who began to worn out.

The two figures moving at high-speed finally separated after a fierce collision. They paused and looked at each other cautiously.

No big wounds could be seen on Jesse’s body, but he obviously began to pant. The fierce high-speed battle just now clearly used up a lot of stamina.

Chen Rui was slightly panting and his cloak was full of reddish cut. Jesse was faster than him, so it took more effort for Chen Rui to keep up to his opponent. He hit Jesse several times just now too, but because of the dark elf’s speed, the force was voided before it hit entirely. The <Astral Form> special ability gave him a huge advantage in a certain sense as it quickly replenished the energy lost during the fight, and the wound recovery was pretty smooth.

Jesse understood that although the opponent was injured, it wasn’t as serious as it looked. Unless he could deal a fatal damage, he might not stand for 2 hours if this level of the fight continued.

The dark elf used his body’s remaining strength, and flashes of lighting spark suddenly appeared on his body. The familiar “Pzzt!” sound reminded Chen Rui of Aldas from the same race. Instinctively, Chen Rui could feel that the power of this lightning was definitely not an illusion.

This electric spark not only increased Jesse’s speed tremendously, but it also had an enchanting effect on the dagger. When Chen Rui’s ribs were accidentally slashed by the dagger, not only his body hair erected, but it also produced a temporary paralysis. If he didn’t react quick enough, he would be stabbed to death.

I haven’t seen this skill in the arena’s information. It is probably the secret art or a new killing move of the dark elf. It should also be his last ultimate move!

Jess uses his ultimate move, using afterimage and lightning together, but Chen counterattacks so strongly that he knocks out Jess. Right when the audience thought Chen would kill Jess, Chen said cooly: that move should be able to get stronger. Jess said it was imperfect but that if it would, it would have been fatal to Chen. Chen then said that he will wait for Jess to perfect it. Chen never empathizes with enemies, but seeks to use them as a whetstone. Jess then scurries away.

## Trivia

The truth for Chen Rui to break Jesse’s ultimate move was Analytical Eyes. Among the 5 shadows of Jesse, only 1 could be realistically analyzed, and that was the true body. Although the other illusions couldn’t be judged by naked eyes or feelings, they couldn’t deceive the skill of <Analytical Eyes>. This also inspired Chen Rui in future battle.
