End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues

Chapter 81: An Unexpected Surprise



The dazzling lightsaber crashed down with a thunderous roar. Amidst the deafening noise and brilliant light, the sinners below the Dawn Arena couldn't see what had just transpired.

However, for Blood Tiger Hansen, a seasoned expert who had already awakened his profession, the spectacle of light and sound was fleeting.

And precisely because of this, Blood Tiger Hansen clearly witnessed his ace fighter, a younger member of his clan, being instantly killed by a player eleven levels lower.

Blood Tiger Hansen's eye twitched as he gazed at the arena, his expression one of shock and despair. He knew he was finished.

Similarly, Nina, who was nearby, stood up abruptly.

At this moment, Nina's eyes literally began to emit a faint glow.

This was a significant characteristic of her family's bloodline power. The more emotional she got, the more pronounced the bloodline power became, manifesting as glowing pupils.

Nina tightly clenched her fingers together, shouting in her mind, "Such a powerful light element force, maybe this player can break my father's curse!"

Just then, the intense light in the sky suddenly dissipated. Jeremy stood there, completely unscathed, without even a wrinkle in his clothes, exuding an air of calm.

Meanwhile, Black Tiger David, who had shown such formidable strength moments ago, had suddenly vanished, leaving only his famous equipment. His blood claws fell to the ground with a clink.

Seeing this scene, the sinners couldn't be clearer. Black Tiger David had been instantly killed by this new player, who was eleven levels lower.

A tremendous outcry erupted from below the Dawn Arena.

Jeremy, who had just one-shotted Black Tiger David, acted as if nothing had happened. He calmly picked up the pair of gauntlets that Black Tiger David had dropped.

The items were good, but compared to his Bone Spear skeletal staff, they were nothing special.

After casually glancing at the gauntlets' attributes, Jeremy tossed them into his storage space.

These gauntlets might not be useful to Jeremy, but they could be sold to Heber in exchange for soul crystals.

Seeing Jeremy acting so nonchalant, some of the sinners present were not pleased.

Although Blood Tiger Hansen and his subordinate, Black Tiger David, were considered lowlifes by the powerful sinners, they were still sinners.

They couldn't allow Jeremy, a newcomer to the Land of Eternal Night, to act so brazenly!

Moreover, Jeremy's strength instilled a deep-seated fear in them.

If Jeremy were the only one capable of such feats, they might be wary of him but wouldn't take him too seriously.

The real fear was that if every player participating in the Dawn Break event was like Jeremy, it would spell disaster for the sinners.

If all the participants in this Dawn Break event were as formidable as Jeremy, the sinners would be nothing more than fish on the chopping block, at the mercy of others.

No matter what, they couldn't let Jeremy leave just like that. At the very least, they needed to uncover the extent of his strength.

Several high-ranking sinner family heads exchanged glances, each seeing the same intent in the others' eyes: "We can't let this kid leave so easily!"

At that moment, an elderly sinner, who appeared frail and had the head of a lion with fur that had turned gray, stood up gracefully.

Tapping his white ivory and gold-inlaid cane lightly, the lion-headed sinner, dressed in an impeccable suit, began to speak in a deep, authoritative voice: "Mr. Jeremy, thank you for bringing us such an exciting duel."

"However, Black Tiger David is quite crude and unworthy of representing the strength of Dawn City."

"Might I inquire if you, Mr. Jeremy, would be interested in a match with a member of the Golden Lion family?"

"If Mr. Jeremy is willing to give our Golden Lion family some guidance, then we will present you with this Tier-6 Fire Element Essence."

"Of course, we are not savages. If Mr. Jeremy declines, we will not force the matter."

As he spoke, the so-called patriarch of the Golden Lion family flipped his hand, revealing a crimson orb that seemed to burn like a flame in his palm.

Evidently, this must be the so-called Tier-6 Fire Element Essence.

Even without using The Eye of Omniscience, Jeremy could sense a vibrant life force and intense heat emanating from the crimson orb, which was only the size of a baby's fist.

Instantly, Jeremy thought to himself, "Good stuff."

Out of instinct, Jeremy activated The Eye of Omniscience to examine the Fire Element Essence more closely.

Immediately, his body froze momentarily, and a flash of ecstatic joy erupted in his eyes.

At the same time, several other well-dressed, imposing sinners stood up from the audience.

Facing Jeremy's puzzled gaze, these sinners declared, "The Blood Leopard Clan, the Black Sheep Clan, the Golden Eagle Clan... request a duel with Mr. Jeremy."

A total of eight top-tier families had now issued challenges to Jeremy.

Moreover, what was even more peculiar was that each of these family heads held an elemental essence identical to the one in the Golden Lion family patriarch's hand.

However, these elemental essences were not fire elements.

In an instant, the elemental concentration around Dawn Arena surged dramatically.

Jeremy could even sense the emergence of tiny elemental life forms.

A few elemental crystals had altered the elemental density of the area, which was simply astonishing.

But no matter how valuable the items were, it didn't change the fact that they were bait.

Almost simultaneously with these families stepping forward, Jeremy sensed a number of low-key yet highly skilled sinners emerging from behind them, subtly encircling Dawn Arena.

In that moment, Jeremy's eyes lowered, filled with coldness: "They intend to kill me."

Seeing this, Nina's eyes also filled with anger.

Gracefully rising, Nina approached the Golden Lion family patriarch who had first stood up.

The moment the Golden Lion patriarch saw Nina, he lowered his proud head, bowed slightly, and placed a gentle kiss on Nina's raised hand, "Good day, Miss Nina."

Only after the Golden Lion patriarch had finished his greeting did Nina speak, her tone tinged with dissatisfaction, "Uncle Weber, what is the meaning of this? Are you planning to break the rules set by my father?"

The Golden Lion family patriarch Weber's expression remained unchanged at Nina's words. "Miss Nina, you've misunderstood. Neither I nor the other family heads have violated the rules set by the Lord of the City."

"We merely wish to seek Mr. Jeremy's guidance for our family members. If Mr. Jeremy is unwilling, we will certainly not force him."

Nina's heart burned with indignation as she confronted Weber's blatant denial. "Uncle Weber, you..."

Weber lifted his gaze, his dim yellow eyes flashing with a cold glint, interrupting Nina's words directly.

"What is it, Miss Nina? Do you think we are breaking the rules?"

The other family heads also turned their eyes towards Nina, their cold glances making her feel as if she had fallen into an icy abyss.

Nina's heart seethed with anger. "Fine... very well. You old scoundrels. If it weren't for my father's severe injury and coma, how would you dare treat me like this!"

"You wish to kill this new player so easily? I won't let you have your way!"

Nina turned to Jeremy, her eyes flashing with determination. "Mr. Jeremy, as the daughter of the Lord of Dawn City, I would like to invite you to the lord's mansion tonight. Would you be willing?"

With those words, a sudden chill of murderous intent filled the eyes of the family heads, including Weber.

Nina ignored their hostile gazes, locking her eyes firmly on Jeremy, awaiting his response.

If Jeremy accepted Nina's invitation, she was confident she could escort him out of Dawn Arena safely.

In truth, Nina's move was somewhat risky.

With the Lord of the City unconscious and the lord's mansion already in a precarious state, offending so many top families of Dawn City at once was indeed unwise.

However, Nina had her own reasons.

Today, no matter what, she would not allow Jeremy to be killed.

Jeremy, looking at the exotic, exquisitely beautiful girl before him, felt a mixture of hope, plea, and excitement in her complex gaze. For a moment, he was at a loss.

The only thing he could be certain of was that this girl named Nina harbored no ill will towards him.

Heber, who was standing nearby, was almost jumping with anxiety.

Unable to hold back, Heber shouted, "Jeremy, quickly accept Miss Nina's invitation!"

However, under the hopeful gazes of Nina and Heber, Jeremy slowly shook his head.

Jeremy said, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Nina, but I don't have the time right now. I will definitely visit the lord's mansion in a few days."

In an instant, the angelic light in Nina's eyes dimmed.

She knew it was over. Completely over. The opportunity her father had painstakingly sought was now lost.

Heber was so frustrated he could have slapped his own thigh.

If he weren't no match for Jeremy, Heber would have rushed up to smack Jeremy on the head to see if he had water in his brain.

Golden Lion Weber laughed heartily, giving Jeremy no chance to rebut. He said directly, "Mr. Jeremy, you have courage. I like young people like you, full of vigor."

Jeremy, however, paid no attention to what Golden Lion Weber was saying.

He stared intently at the Tier-6 Fire Element Essence in Weber's hand and said, "In that case, could you please pay me in advance, sir?"

Weber was taken aback, a flash of disdain crossing his eyes, though he said, "Haha, of course."

With that, Weber tossed the Tier-6 Fire Element Essence to Jeremy.

Jeremy, staring at the Tier-6 Fire Element Essence, breathed heavily.
