The Glorious Evolution - Chapter 342

Chapter 342: Pure Dragonic Genetics.
Before Levi’s deadpan voice could reach Light Eater, he pulled the trigger.

BOOOOOOOM!!!

A golden beam exploded from the rifle with a small line of red burned along its edge, showing how close it was to plasma-level heat!

The beam pierced through the air in an instant and hit Light Eater in the chest.

The illusion shattered a split second before the beam landed since Light Eater’s instincts were much sharper than Yanhuan’s.

But alas… it was still too late.

Pain and clarity hit Light Eater at the same time, leaving his shadowy eyes widened… he slowly glanced downward, and saw a giant burning hole in the center of his chest.

‘How…’

This was the last word he uttered before his entire body got engulfed in wild sunflames, turning him into a crispy, burnt-off corpse.

Before Levi fired his gun, Light Eater’s vision showed him Levi finishing all of his attacks. Then, once his turn arrived, he believed he was finally free to drop his black hole form without worry.

Unfortunately, he had no idea that it was all a perfect illusion.

Meanwhile, the viewers were left stunned and speechless, having absolutely no idea what the hell they had just witnessed. It was like they watched an unexplainable suicide attempt.

One moment, Light Eater had a duel locked on his hands… the next moment, he was dead.

Fortunately, they had Gamemaster Gamble to clarify their confusion and doubts… he took advantage of his omnipotence to analyze the situation in detail. In less than a second, he managed to understand what happened as he had witnessed Levi’s spiritual attack with his own eyes.

“I can’t believe my eyes! The Celestial has managed to put Light Eater inside an illusion in the last seconds!” Gamemaster Gamble shouted excitedly, “He figured out Light Eater’s soul natural frequency and used his tune as a medium to launch his invisible spiritual attack!”

“Light Eater had no idea that he was already proclaimed dead the moment he was trapped in the illusion!”

Whoooah!!

Upon hearing this, Levi’s fans lost their minds as they cheered at the top of their lungs, not caring for details or anything. Once they figured out their idol wielded Illusion Aspect, they were already on cloud nine.

-Hahaha!! I was right to support the Celestial… he is never boring, always a new Aspect, always a new weapon!-

-I claim it right now! Celestial deserves to become a Boundless Expanse Noble!-

-No wonder it says he has used all five attacks… the illusion must have counted as one.-

Meanwhile, Jasmine was left smiling sweetly in delight as she watched Levi being bestowed with Light Eater’s Joker card and the one he used. Though his own was chained up and couldn’t be used in the next round.

‘That golden beam… your crush seems to have a high resonance access across all three Origin seeds… I thought it was low at first, but it’s impossible to create such concentrated sunflame beam without having a minimum of 10% access.’ N’ibby commentated, her tone a mixture of astonishment and depression.

Just as Levi always turned a blind eye to Ash’Kral’s remarks about Jasmine being his girlfriend… Jasmine, too, always turned a deaf ear whenever N’ibby started teasing her. Both of them ignored it… pretending not to hear what their hearts weren’t ready to face.

‘Now… he has three Joker cards, the highest in the game.’ Jasmine thought inwardly while switching her focus to the other battles.

The moment Levi sat down on the floor in silence, most viewers left to spectate the rest of the battles. Though… only one combat room was absolutely heated: Drayven vs The Wanderer of the Seas.

The Dealer and the Ruiner ended in a stalemate due to their cards choices. As for Madam Future and the Hollow Titan? Both picked low cards and their battle finished with light injuries on both sides.

Hence, Drayven’s battle had taken the main screen.

‘Good thing Levi didn’t take the bait…’

Jasmine knitted her eyebrows solemnly as she watched a replay of Drayven’s ‘heavy injuries’ healing up on their own until he was back to his peak form.

No cards wasted, no abilities used… just pure dragonic genetic prowess.

Drayven stood straight, and proud like he was never hurt… the Wanderer of the Seas had used the Joker card to cancel Drayven’s defensive card, leaving the King’s card at his disposal.

He thought that he was going to finish him off with a low offensive card in his heavily injured state, and without any defenses… alas, he was baited hard.

Drayven merely covered his vitals with his scarlet wings, and then he allowed the Wanderer to attack as he pleased.

After the Wanderer used his attacks, he managed to slice a single wing off Drayven… unfortunately, he came short and Drayven survived the onslaught until his turn arrived.

Now… the viewers held their breath, awaiting Drayven’s response.

“I am really pissed… why was it you? I wasted a damn King card on a nobody.” Drayven uttered coldly while walking in the direction of the Wanderer.

His sliced-off wing and other injuries were healing at a noticeable speed with each step he took… By the time he was five meters away from the Wanderer, Drayven’s injuries were fully healed!

-This is crazy… how is this rejuvenation fair?! As long as he isn’t killed with one attack, he will always return to his peak form!-

-It’s not all sunshine and rainbow… Scarlet Dragons born with this special trait have to trade bits of their life force to heal their injuries.-

-Still, they live up to thousands of years on average… abusing it a couple of times poses no risks to them.-

Most watchers had no idea about this since Noble Dragon Lineages kept their genetic traits as secretive as possible… and now that they knew, many began to anticipate Drayven emerging as victorious in this game.

They realized that he had a massive advantage on everyone… he could survive their beatings with his tough scales and then recover to normal. Of course, ultimate abilities weren’t counted.

Meanwhile, his offensive prowess was utterly staggering.

Drayven was about to display it before all. He planted his clawed feet into the cracked ground, his cold eyes affixed on the Wanderer.

The Wanderer remained silent… watching as Drayven’s chest expanded until his stretched ribs were about to snap. The heat poured out of his body in waves and raised the temperature so fast.

Drayven took one final glance at the Wanderer, and then he tilted his head back, showing a faint red glow built deep in his throat.

It was small at first, but then the glow turned into a concentrated scarlet sphere, appearing like a burning coal deep inside his mouth.

Instead of feeling afraid, the Wanderer simply offered a gentle smile… his appearance resembling a prince raised in a palace of mirrors and crystals. He looked human, yet his skin carried a faint reflective sheen, as if it were shaped from polished glass.

It wasn’t far-fetched when his upper mask was nothing more than a square mirror, hiding most of his features, but his blue lips.

He waited until Drayven was on the verge of exhaling his attack, and then bowed his head slightly towards the viewers.

Before anyone could react, the Wanderer of the Seas used his precious resignation token the instant Drayven snapped his mouth in front and split the combat room with a vertical beam of scarlet flames!

Alas… his scarlet beam landed on nothing but the wall in front of him, scorching it black. Seeing this, Drayven canceled his ultimate ability mid-launch with a heated expression.

“You motherf*ckers!”
