Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen-Chapter 114: Abyss Event: Death Circus
"Why did Lady Lilith add you to the Dark Troupe?" Frandal calmly asked. "What is so impressive about you two…weak little ants?"
"Rin, someone is farting from their mouth right after breakfast," Erix wryly smiled and stood up. "Let's go. We can't stay here too long."
"Right," Rin nodded and also stood up with a smile. "It's getting stinky."
Frandal's face turned dark while Spena loudly snorted and said, "You two best be careful outside."
"One more farted," Erix pinched his nose while walking towards the exit.
"Let's hurry out," Rin quipped, imitating Erix's action and infuriating Spena as her face turned red.
She looked at Frandal and moved her lips to talk without uttering a sound.
"Good idea. I'll send five," Frandal nodded.
…
Erix and Rin had gathered 2 million Abyss Coins total, so they went to the Red Sea Gear Emporio.
They needed a set to wear to increase their overall combat prowess and more weapons.
However, just as they entered the shop, the sky over the town darkened, and dark-colored clouds manifested.
An uproar ensued as everyone looked up, and those inside buildings came out hearing the commotion.
"Abyss Event!"
"Finally. I thought this week would be over without any event."
People were talking with excited and eager expressions while Rin and Erix curiously looked up as the clouds were transforming.
A minute later, they saw a gigantic black gate manifesting atop the cloud, and as the final touches, a sleek, dark gold skull materialized on the center of the gate.
Seeing the dark gold skull and words that manifested in giant golden letters, the uproar suddenly turned significantly low. Voices turned low, and people's expressions darkened.
"The Death Circus event! Hahaha, I was waiting for it!"
A man with long black hair and a bare upper body flew up like a shooting star but came crashing down just as quickly.
Additional words appeared in the sky.
[ Entry: Supra-order only ]
[ Starts in 30 minutes. 29:59 ]
"Tsk, only supra-order ants?"
Although some were disappointed, many were overjoyed as they flew up using various means to participate in the event.
Rin and Erix also got information about the event in their mind after they looked at the [ Death Circus] words in the sky.
[Abyss Event: Death Circus]
_Details: An event where fifty or more people participate in a death game spanning five rounds.
_Rules:
—> In each round, all participants will be transported to a random exotic battlefield filled with monsters.
—> An individual passes a round after killing five monsters or one participant.
—> Rewards will be given to those who pass all five rounds.
_Rewards: freewёbnoνel.com
—> A random Tier-2 item box (Rare to Legendary)
—> A Tier-1 Legendary grade weapon selection box.
—> A random Tier-2 skill box.
"The rewards are great," Erix muttered.
"Then let's go?" Rin grinned, raring to go. "The participants are only supra-order, and the dangers will help us get stronger."
"Yeah, we haven't fought against people of our level," Erix nodded as his lips also curved into a devilish smile. "We need some intense battles, and this event seems perfect."
"Let's quickly buy our armor sets and then participate."
Erix and Rin went back into Red Sea Gear Emporio.
A peak Tier-1 armor set costs around 700k Abyss coins, so they would be set back by at least 1.5 million after buying their armor sets.
After looking for ten minutes, the duo finally chose their sets.
Rin selected a set called Thunder's Wrath, a black ranger set adorned with blue lightning patterns. It consisted of black leather armor, boots, gloves, and a cross belt.
The cross belt was to keep potions and other items for quick usage, and there was also a rope attached to it that Rin could use.
[Thunder's Wrath Set]
_Defence: 400
_Perks: Lightning resistance +200.
_Effect(s):
—> 2-piece set effect: Gain a passive increase to lightning resistance and lightning damage, reducing damage taken from electrical attacks by 20% and increasing lightning-attributed damage by 20%.
—> 4-piece set effect: Consume 50 mana to activate the armor's set enchantment formation and choose one of two activations. 1. Increase your overall stats by 20% for 1 minute 2. Unleash a deadly lightning bolt via your weapon for powerful lightning damage with a 100% chance to inflict a 2-second paralyze if the target is at Supra-order rank or below. Cooldown: 1 hour.
On the other hand, Erix bought a dark red metal armor set with black and bright blood patterns called Ironclad Berserker set.
It consisted of light metal armor, gauntlets, boots, and a helmet. The main ingredient used to create the armor pieces was none other than Blood Stone ores!
[Ironclad Berserker set]
_Defence: 550
_Perks: Reduce pure physical damage by 20%.
_Effect(s):
—> 2-piece set effect: Increase Strength and Agility by 5% for ten seconds after getting hit. Up to 20%.
—> 4-piece set effect: Consume 50% of your maximum vitality to enter the Blood Stone Berserk state that increases your Strength, Stamina, Health, and Agility by 10% + 50 stats.
Erix decided to go Yolo by choosing this armor set that could allow him to become an unstoppable force.
"These sets will make a big difference," Rin wryly smiled. "I can already feel so strong. Moreover, yours is a crazy one."
"One punch, death," Erix grinned. "I want to see who survives my strongest punch there."
Afterward, Erix pulled Rin from her waist into his embrace and jumped ten meters high before quickly forming a metal board below their feet and flying up towards the giant gate above the clouds.
Many people were flying towards it from the town and wilderness as the giant gate in the sky was visible extensively.
After arriving at the gates, Rin and Erix entered inside just like other people and appeared on a vast barren ground.
There were already over a hundred people present!
Outside, Frandal and Spena called a few people using their comm cards after they saw Rin and Erix flying up.
"This is a perfect opportunity to kill them," Spena grinned.
Frandal nodded with cold eyes.
In a few minutes, seven people wearing different outfits arrived. Two women and five men.
All seven were above level 90, wore sets, and each of them had one level 1 affinity.
The seven people only received a single mission from their bosses.
"Kill the new duo that lady Lilith recruited at any cost."
