I Am A Legendary BOSS

Chapter 301 The First Person Who Used Money as a Battle Tactic

The Magic Conference was still ongoing.

On the second day, the knock-out round finally ended. Over 34,000 participants had been eliminated.

The losers didn’t receive any rewards.

However, they could ask the organizers to repair their broken equipment, and they could either watch the rest of the competition thereafter or just go home.

The 34,000 people held another 340 elimination battle rounds among themselves.

The 340 winners would receive a set of brand new Dark-Gold equipment from the organizers.

One could tell that the organizers were kind and rich enough to give out these generous rewards.

Many victors had performed extremely well. They were not much weaker than the contestants on the seed intel ranking list.

This attracted the attention of many people.

Not only did several people from the top four power centers try to talk to them, but William also secretly asked Diablo and the others to talk to those people and try to get them to work for the City of Dawn.

Nonetheless, the person who shone the most was the first person on the intel ranking list.

Marl Cloud!

William knew him as the ‘God of Fury’ and ‘God of Jealousy’.

That guy had dual fire and thunder attributes.

He was known for his fierce and violent combat style.

In the knock-out round, half of the professionals in his arena had decided to join forces to defeat him. However, using his aggressive combat style, Marl Cloud defeated those professionals with incredible ease. His opponents were either left on the verge of death or sent flying out of the arena.

Marl Cloud demonstrated his strong offense in the knock-out round. His ridiculously strong defense was also apparent.

He had blocked the attacks of over thirty professionals at the same time.

His offense and defense were unparalleled.

It had been merely ten minutes before Marl Cloud’s knock-out round ended. He was only a few seconds slower than William, who had been able to win so quickly because of bribing.

Not only was everyone discussing some powerful contestants, but they were also talking about how the Lord of the City of Dawn used his money as a battle tactic.

That was right.

Indeed, this sort of battle tactic attracted a lot of attention and controversy.

For now, the organizers didn’t stop the crowd from talking about this issue. They didn’t stop William from doing this, as it would leave people with something to criticize them if they added a new rule this late.

On the second day, several professionals from top force centers started to use this tactic too.

However, most of these people ended up being badly beaten up…

“Why? This isn’t fair at all!”

“That’s right! The Lord of the City of Dawn succeeded in using this tactic, but why doesn’t it work when I use it?”

“Damnit, I refuse to accept this.”

Many rich people wanted to copy William’s tactic. However, not only did they get robbed, but the other contestants had also beaten them.

At this point in time, a lot of people stared angrily at William.

But the prince wanted to tell them that he couldn’t help this situation too.

Many factors come into play when trying to bribe someone with money.

The most important one being that none of them were as charming as William.

Furthermore, hadn’t they calculated their chances of winning beforehand?

Some of the contestants didn’t even have a Legendary bloodline, yet they wanted to become the final victor. What utter nonsense!

They had probably relied on their good quality equipment to survive the knock-out round.

Others didn’t know that, but due to his half-player status, William could see through them after using his insight.

The professionals from the top power centers weren’t extremely strong, but the key thing was that they had a set of Legendary equipment, which greatly boosted their defense.

As long as they weren’t too outstanding in the knock-out round, they could avoid becoming a target. It was possible that they might become the final victor at the end when a few contestants were left.

The 340 contestants who won the knock-out round were experts who had dominated over the other 99 people in their arenas.

Who wasn’t confident in their ability?

Who wasn’t slightly arrogant?

Since they had passed the knock-out round, they would definitely want to make it to the semi-finals and even the finals.

After all, attaining a good ranking in this Magic Conference could make one more famous, which was much better than accepting a bribe now.

It could be said that if one didn’t have enough money or power to dominate over the other person, their attempt at bribery would be a failure.

“In conclusion…

“They’re not offering enough money…”

Just as William was absorbed in his thoughts, a young teenager in the arena beside him suddenly threw out two bags of magical stones. “2000 magical stones. Let me win!”

The teenager’s opponent was a Shield-Bearer, who silently accepted the magical stones but still continued to attack. That teenager threw another bag of magical stones at him and shouted, “3000!”

“Damn it, stop it. We can talk this over. I’ll give you 5000 magical stones if you admit defeat. If you continue attacking me and make me panic, I have a lot of magic scrolls, and I’m not afraid to use them!” The well-dressed teenager continued dodging his opponent’s attacks awkwardly.

However, even if the teenager was wearing Legendary equipment, it wasn’t enough to defend against the Shield-Bearer’s precise attacks.

Nonetheless, when he mentioned 5000 magical stones…

The Shield-Bearer suddenly stopped attacking and glanced at him. He couldn’t help but wonder if this dude was richer than the Lord of the City of Dawn. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, “Who are you? Why should I believe you?”.

Upon hearing that, the teenager knew that the deal was done. “I’m the biological son of the vice president of the Rover’s Chamber of Commerce. My family is pretty rich.” He smiled and said shyly.

“I believe that no one dares to impersonate me. You can take my promise to be absolutely credible.”

“…” The Shield-Bearers gave him a thumbs-up. Well, one couldn’t afford to offend rich people.

He glanced at the confused referee and winked at the teenager.

The next moment, both of them collided into each other with tacit understanding.

Boom!

Shock waves rippled out in all directions.

Unexpectedly, the Shield-Bearer was sent flying into the air like a bullet and landed out of the arena.

At this moment, he was kneeling on the ground and coughing out blood. He looked upwards with bloodshot eyes and said fiercely, “The son of the vice president of the Rover’s Chamber of Commerce is strong indeed. I didn’t expect you to be this strong.’

“You’re too kind. I’m a businessman, and I use my power for self-defense. I rarely fight. This is a little gift from me, take this money and buy some medicine. We can keep in touch. The Rover’s Chamber of Commerce needs an expert like you.” The teenager laughed and tossed two bags of magical crystals to him.

The Shield-Bearer jumped up in an agile manner and caught it. After that, he stumbled outside slowly…

Many people were in disbelief upon seeing this.

This Shield-Bearer was too lucky. He had profited so much from this battle and had also made connections with the Rover’s Chamber of Commerce now. He had a bright future ahead…

William, who witnessed everything, started silently plotting against that teenager.

“That teenager is Wayne Gold Coin. I forgot that this dude had participated in the first Magic Conference!” William narrowed his eyes. In his previous life, this dude was the first person to use money as a battle tactic in the Magic Conference.

However, that only happened during the second time that the Magic Conference was held.

In his previous life, Wayne Gold Coin didn’t manage to achieve much in the first Magic Conference. Perhaps, he hadn’t thought of this idea at that time.

The charming, kind, and lovely prince was deep in thought.

Anyway, he didn’t want to give out money in his upcoming battles.

William believed that he could win his opponents.

However, he wanted his opponent to give him money instead.

He took out a magic transmission scroll and found the contact information of Roland Fecker.

That was right.

He was going to contact him.

It was time for them to bond.
