Chapter 1085 The Result of Using Injuries
Liu Yan and the others found themselves in a situation where they couldn't intervene. All the decision-making rested entirely in Huang Yuan's hands. Liu Yan and the group could do nothing but continue to watch patiently.
In the arena, Huang Yuan, fatigued from the relentless arrow feather attacks, seemed to have made a resolute decision. Rather than retreating, he charged directly at Bernie Galt.
The closer he got to Bernie Galt, the shorter the distance, and the faster and denser the arrow feathers became. It made evasion increasingly difficult.
If Huang Yuan continued to approach Bernie Gault under such circumstances, he would be courting death.
Bernie Galt, who faced him, was equally astounded. He never expected Huang Yuan to make such a reckless move.
Bernie Galt's original intention was to conserve stamina and energy to quickly defeat Huang Yuan. He had no intention of inflicting serious harm or death.
Now, however, Huang Yuan's actions appeared suicidal.
Bernie Galt didn't want to witness severe injuries or death for Huang Yuan, yet he couldn't afford to let up either.
In any case, each territory battle held profound importance for their territory, leaving no room for leniency.
Bernie Galt clenched his teeth and continued his offensive. Even if it meant Huang Yuan being seriously injured, Bernie Galt had to win this battle. There was no room for compromise.
But Bernie Galt had also made up his mind. The moment he saw Huang Yuan take a hit, he would instantly halt his attacks. At most, Huang Yuan would endure severe injuries, ensuring he wouldn't face death.
As Huang Yuan charged forward, he soon found it impossible to evade the arrow feathers raining down upon him. Several arrow feathers struck him.
Huang Yuan's movements briefly halted, but in the next moment, he pressed on.
Bernie Galt initially assumed the battle was over and ceased his attack. However, upon closer inspection, he noticed that Huang Yuan, though already wounded by the arrow feathers, was relentless.
Bernie Galt finally comprehended Huang Yuan's strategy. Huang Yuan was deliberately using his right side to engage in the attack. This way, even if he took hits, they wouldn't be fatal. He would sustain injuries, but not grievous ones or death.
Huang Yuan was determined to use his body as a shield against some arrow feathers to close in on Bernie Galt and engage in close-quarters combat.
Bernie Galt hadn't expected Huang Yuan to be this resolute, willingly sacrificing his well-being to get close and keep the fight going.
So, Bernie Galt immediately resumed his assault. There was no room for mercy.
However, at the very moment when Bernie Galt hesitated and momentarily halted his attacks, Huang Yuan rapidly closed the gap.
Just a few hundred meters separated them, and Huang Yuan was only a few strides away.
Bernie Galt was just about to resume firing arrows, but Huang Yuan surprised him by delivering a powerful punch.
Seeing this, Bernie Galt had no choice but to suspend his archery and shift to close-quarters combat.
He wielded his massive Bow and Arrow as an improvised close-combat weapon, clashing with Huang Yuan, who had no weapon but relied on his physical prowess.
Huang Yuan employed a range of tactics, each punch, each parry, knee strikes, and shoulder charges, all showcasing his resourceful approach to offense.
While Bernie Galt might not have been as proficient in close combat as he was with archery, it didn't mean he couldn't fight at close quarters; it was merely that his long-range combat skills were more formidable.
Despite Huang Yuan's proficiency in close combat, there was a considerable three-star gap in combat strength between him and Bernie Galt.
Under normal circumstances, Huang Yuan might have had a chance in close combat. However, at this moment, he was severely injured, causing a substantial decrease in his combat strength.
This meant that, even in close combat, Huang Yuan remained outmatched by Bernie Galt.
But Huang Yuan paid no heed to this discrepancy. Even if he wasn't a match, he had to continue fighting. Even if he lost, he had to continue fighting. As long as he could exhaust Bernie Galt a little more and pave the way for the players of Team Origin, Huang Yuan's goal would be achieved!
Bernie Galt's expression revealed his inner turmoil. Nevertheless, he pressed on, fighting Huang Yuan.
After a fierce battle, Bernie Galt bore the brunt of several of Huang Yuan's attacks and sustained injuries. Finally, he seized a chance to knock Huang Yuan back several dozen meters with a single strike from his immense bow. Simultaneously, Bernie Galt drew his Bow and Arrow, aiming directly at Huang Yuan!
Seeing this, Huang Yuan grasped the situation and opted to admit defeat without further contention.
In the next instant, the Will of Tower teleported Huang Yuan out of the arena.
At the same time, the voice of the Will of Tower sounded.
[The sixth small battle, won by Team Elf!]
[The opponent territory, please select the next player within one minute to continue the battle.]
[Team Elf has claimed victory in the sixth small battle. Random rewards are currently being assigned...
[Randomization successful. Congratulations on receiving: Group rewards, one silver treasure chest per person!]
[The seventh single battle is about to commence. Please prepare!]
As Bernie Galt listened to the Will of Tower reporting the victory of the Team Elf in the sixth small battle, his expression did not carry much joy.
Although it seemed like he had emerged victorious against Huang Yuan in this battle, in reality, it had cost him significantly.
Bernie Galt held a considerable three-star advantage in combat strength over Huang Yuan, and he had purposely concealed his full strength, devising a tactical scheme against Huang Yuan.
Under ordinary circumstances, Bernie Galt would have been capable of swiftly defeating Huang Yuan, conserving his energy without suffering any injuries.
However, the outcome was far from this ideal scenario.
Huang Yuan's ruthless decision and Bernie Galt's carelessness gave him a chance.
However, Huang Yuan managed to seize this tiny opportunity. He managed to get close to him even though he was injured, and he started a close combat with him.
In the end, Bernie Galt still won Huang Yuan, but the difference was huge.
At this moment, Bernie Galt not only consumed a lot of stamina and energy but also suffered a lot of injuries.
After enduring a flurry of punches and kicks from Huang Yuan, Bernie Galt now felt pain coursing through his entire body.
Shaking his head in resignation, Bernie Galt swiftly retrieved some healing potions and administered them, tending to his wounds.
However, Bernie Galt was well aware that he had been considerably drained by Huang Yuan's relentless assault, and the battles ahead might pose a greater challenge.
Initially, Bernie Galt had wanted to defeat at least three more members of the Team Origin after dealing with Wei Feng.
From the looks of it now, it would already be pretty good if he could defeat the next contestant.
Bernie Galt sighed. He was too careless. If he hadn't been soft-hearted, he wouldn't have given Huang Yuan a chance.
However, Bernie Galt also understood that Huang Yuan was too ruthless. He made such a ruthless decision, which led to his carelessness and gave him a chance.
The reason was that Huang Yuan was ruthless and decisive, which gave him such a chance.
The past was in the past. Bernie Galt didn't think too much about it and continued the battle seriously.
Beyond the arena, Huang Yuan was teleported back, and his comrades approached him.
At this moment, Huang Yuan's right side had been attacked by several arrow feathers. It was a bloody mess and his injuries were not light.
At the same time, Huang Yuan's other body parts were also injured in the close combat with Bernie Galt.
It could be said that the current result was all because of Huang Yuan's ruthlessness and injuries.
If it was any other Awakened with 16-star combat strength, how could they have any advantage against an opponent with a difference of three stars of combat strength? Even if he died, he would not be able to get close to Bernie Galt and cause any harm to him.
Although Huang Yuan had lost this battle, it was a glorious defeat. The results had far exceeded his expectations.
