    It wasn’t that Universal Day really liked bananas but rather that a banana was the most convenient model for him to use.


    Anything smaller would have had its movements and jumping ability greatly limited; arger model would have been more eye-catching and easier for the opponent to find.


    Especially on a map that was full of variousmodities, it was easy for small andmon things to hide. A banana was the first model that came to mind.


    Unfortunately, his opponent had seen him when he had changed into a banana at the start. Otherwise, he could have directly changed into a banana and hid in the fruit stall tounch an ambush. That kind of attack was absolutely impossible to defend against...Universal Day had nned to do that during the countdown.


    .


    The pace of the match eased up again.


    “Now, our two contestants have exchanged a round of ambushes.” The malementator took the opportunity to say, “From this round of exchanges, especially when ites to ambushes, the advantage that an assassin has is still quiterge. And, when ites to contestant Odin, this advantage is overwhelming.”


    The femalementator added, “Look at the difference in health. They had bothunched an ambush, but Universal Day only took 8% of Lord Four’s health while Odin took away 35% in return. This is a very drastic difference.”


    Malementator: “Indeed. The difference between his health right now and 50% isn’t that big. Odin, with a bit of effort, might be able to obtain the advantage point that he had identally missed out on in the previous game.”


    In fact, Tyron didn’t care about these advantage points.


    By the end of this round, he would have already umted 7 points, putting him at the highest spot amongst the top six. The next highest was the yer, ‘Forgetting Worries’, and the rest only had 4 points or less. Advantage points were something that other contestants coveted when they were unsure about their win, so it was very difficult for them to catch up by three points or above in one go.


    Therefore, Tyron wasn’t worried that his championship position would be shaken by advantage points. He just needed to win. Secondly, for him, killing was killing, and he’d never considered time as a factor.


    If the killing time was short, it meant that he had taken the straight attack route. If it was long, it meant that he’d adopted some tactics. If he appeared to have arge advantage, it meant that he aimed to crush his opponent directly, and if his apparent advantage was small, it meant that he had other ns.


    For real assassins, it was enough for them to kill their enemy and make an exit.


    However, this was at a level that thementators couldn’t see at all. Even if they could tell, they couldn’t praise any contestant to that kind of level––they would be scolded by the audience for being too much!


    Thementators spent a little more time analyzing the situation. By the time they’d returned back to the scene of the match, the two contestants had started to sh again.


    If Universal Day wanted to hide, he could hide for a really long time. It wasn’t a problem for him to drag a game on for an hour, but this tactic was useless for this match. After all, he was also a professional yer and wouldn’t think of doing such boring things. All of his actions were for the sake of one word––winning.


    So, after he changed his model, he quicklyunched his second ambush.


    First, Universal Day suddenly appeared and made a surprise attack with his hand gun, which took away another small amount of health. It had also exposed his own position, leading Odin to head in his direction.


    After that, Universal Day set up a trap.


    He hadn’t finished speaking when Odin very quickly caught up to the hacker.


    The malementator immediately shut up. All of his concentration was focused on preparing for the high-speed conflict that was about to break out––he’d learned to be smart. Don’t be wordy when Odin was about to fight, otherwise even having eight mouths wouldn’t be enough.


    .


    This time, Universal Day was in his original form because he’d justunched an attack.


    Odin came down directly from the sky as soon as he caught up!


    It was like a high-altitude eagle swooping down, his speed adding to the impact force and smashing Universal Day into the ground. Universal Day didn’t dare to enter a face-to-face confrontation at all and rolled away in a panic.


    Odin recovered slightly afternding, but what made it terrifying was that he was able to get up faster than Universal Day––so quickly that it seemed as though the previous impact had been fake.


    Universal Day had only just gotten enough time to hold up his gun and prepare to shoot when a cold sh of light appeared near his eyes. He immediately gave up on getting the first shot in and tossed away his gun to type out a newmand!


    He used 15% of his health in order to avoid getting into a closebat fight with the great demon king.


    Malementator: “He abandoned his gun! Universal Day is determined not to meet Odin head-on.”


    Tyron could see Universal Day’smand very clearly: He’d reced his own handgun with a huge dragon!


    Of course, this dragon had no real attack power. However, once this model came out, the assassin, who had real experience fighting against dragons, also had his conditioned reflexes kick in. He avoided the dragon ws and tail’s attack range––and once again suffered from having too much relevant experience.


    However, his reaction speed was also surprisingly fast. He was already back to normal within half a second and unhesitatingly sent out a sh of light that prated the fake dragon.


    As the handgun changed back into its original shape, it became clear that Universal Day, who’d been hiding behind the dragon, had already disappeared.


    Obviously, he’d turned himself into something else once again.


    .


    There were too many misceneous things on this map. There were tents and vendors’ stalls everywhere in this small open space, and countless strange magical items were on disy.


    If it was someone else, they would have been practically helpless at this time. They would have only been able to watch and guess or wait for Universal Day to show up. However, the master assassin had made preparations early on...


    Femalementator: “He found him directly again! What’s going on ahhhhhh!”


    Odin sent out a dart and hit a bird cage.


    Just before they’d traded blows, the master assassin had already memorized the position of everything in the area in the one second beforeing down from the sky––in order to make it so that Universal Day could no longer blend in with the surroundings!


    A photographic memory was one of the required abilities for a master assassin. It was also the most convenient way topare the differences between before and after in his memory. The extra birdcage had been simply too obvious.


    ––However, for thementators, the audience, and even Universal Day himself, it was hard to understand. They were going crazy and even suspected that the system had given Odin a golden finger.


    As the darts flew out, they saw the birdcage dance like there was a fire beneath its buttocks. It jumped high in order to avoid the darts.


    Then, he found himself faced with the great demon king’s sh once again!


    At the next moment, the ‘birdcage’ did something that no other contestant had done before––


    He rushed up towards the sh. When he was hit by the sh in mid-air, he immediately changed back into his original form and lost a little health. At the same time, hended and picked up the handgun that had just dropped to the ground.


    The twomentators were surprised, “They exchanged positions!”


    “How do I say this, Universal Day is really clever. Although he took damage from the sh, he still managed to pull away from the great demon king after his sh...”


    .


    Universal Day picked up his handgun. He also had another gun in his other hand, and both guns had already started shooting before he’d even stood up properly.


    His handgun attacks were mediocre, but they could take away 8% of a squishy assassin with weak defense’s health every second. The hit rate was slightly reduced when two guns were used, but at such a close distance, it still added up to about 14% per second.


    After the sh, Odin immediately initiated his second sh and caught up with Universal Day once again.


    Universal Day called out his light screen as he fired and used his voice to input anothermand!


    ––Three actions at once!


    It was very difficult to maintain fire with two guns, and Universal Day even had to ‘chant’ at the same time. This difficulty level was almost inhuman, and in all previouspetitions, very few hackers had been able to do so. Universal Day himself had never demonstrated such skills before.


    The malementator also found it unbelievable, “It’s very unlikely to do three things at once! He must give up one of them–-”


    Before he’d finished speaking, he’d already understood a little.


    .


    Universal Day had given uppletely on dodging!


    His two guns were shooting at Odin while he used voice input to enter amand and enter a special state. Unlimited ammunition, unlimited shooting.


    This unlimited firepower from both guns immediately covered Odin. At this time, Odin had already reached Universal Day’s position.


    It only took a second for all these things to happen. The malementator only had time to say a sentence or two when there was another fierce exchange between the two yers––


    It was fierce, because neither party performed any defense or dodging. It was a mutual direct attack!


    Universal Day had been betting that a prudent assassin would choose to avoid approaching him head-on in the face of his double-gun attacks, allowing him to avoid the possibility of a closebat fight.


    However!


    Odin didn’t dodge away at all. He came over and used Shadow Dance!


    The cold light had an extreme beauty that made people shudder, and at the same time, it was like facing a killing abyss.


    It was as though the great demon king was sneering as he said: You want to fight with me? Come! It’ll be my loss if I retreat a single step!


    The femalementator yelled, “It’s a direct exchange of blood! Both of them are losing health too quickly! Universal Day’s health is copsing!”


    It was rare to see a scene where two damage dealers stood there and exchanged health, because they would usually enter a closebat fight.


    de against de required skill, but trading health for health took lives––it was a contest to see who was faster, fiercer, and who could kill the other side first!


    If Universal Day’s double-gun attacks were at a normal hot weapon speed that could take away a person’s life within ten seconds, then Odin’s Shadow Dance was like a nuclear weapon. Universal Day only had half of his life left, and it would only take another three or four seconds to kill him––this also included the time required for Odin to get close.


    .


    After Odin closed the distance, Universal Day’s health dropped to below 20% just two secondster!


    But, even as he struggled to continue firing both guns, his secondmand had finally beenpleted.


    It was another model recementmand. After experiencing sweetness twice, Universal Day had already found the best way to hold down the master assassin––turning his extremely high fighting ability back on him and causing him to dodge instinctively.


    As long as he could slow down Odin’s offensive during this critical moment in the game, Universal Day would still have a chance to turn the tables!


    As soon as themand came out, one of the streamers in the sky instantly transformed into an iparably grand waterfall and crashed down!


    This magnificent visual effect caused the audience to make a series of startled noises.


    Malementator: “Terrain model! The waterfall may not have any practical effect, but it’ll at least make Odin retreat––Hey?!!”
