Roaring Heroes Battle the Overlord (Ainz)

Chapter 61: Weapon Battle

Barrett dashed through the smoke-filled arena towards EeDeChi in the center. "Captain, how are you holding up?"

Barrett could see that this "friendly spar" was nothing but ruthless fighting. The members of the Great Tomb of Nazarick harbored intense hostility. If EeDeChi fails in the next "friendly spar," not only will the captain be unable to escape, but he will also meet his end here.

EeDeChi had carried her giant sword behind her. After a fierce battle, she lowered her eyelids and slowly regulated her breathing without raising her head, asking in return, "Where's the vitality potion in your spatial ring?"

It was the first time EeDeChi had asked for a magical potion. Hearing this, Barrett quickly pulled out three orange-glass vials from his spatial ring and handed them over.

These three vials contained the highest quality vitality potions that Barrett had bought at a high price. Just half a vial was enough to revive a dying old man and get him up to fight an ancient dragon with a two-handed sword.

The alchemist who sold Barrett the potions had boasted, "Take five drops with a dropper, and I guarantee you can have sex with ten mature women all night without stopping."

Although the potion's effects were miraculous, Barrett had never tried them. Such precious items were meant for life-saving moments and definitely not to be wasted on sex. Besides, Barrett couldn't find ten mature women anyway.

The orange vitality potions were housed in exquisite glass vials, with not just ordinary cork stoppers but magical glass caps designed to preserve the potion.

EeDeChi took one vial, bit through the glass stopper, and shattered the vial's mouth along with the stopper, sending shards of glass everywhere. She tilted her head back and drank the entire contents of the vial, then proceeded to do the same with the remaining two vials.

Barrett watched in horror at EeDeChi's ferocious actions. Only when he confirmed that her mucous membranes and skin were impervious to damage did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.

EeDeChi spat out some glass shards and wiped the orange liquid from the corners of her lips, complaining, "It doesn't taste like anything. It's not fake, is it?"

"I'm not you. How could I possibly buy counterfeit goods?" Barrett replied helplessly.

This was just a standard potion brewed by an ordinary mage. No matter how expensive or impressive it seemed, for someone as powerful as EeDeChi, its effects would be like a drop in the ocean.

"I... I just gave you a chance to show off. If the boss handles everything, then what are the subordinates supposed to do...?" EeDeChi was about to retort Barrett when the ground of the arena trembled, as if a giant in heavy armor was stomping around, interrupting her.

Following the heavy footsteps, a towering silver figure appeared at one end of the arena. The figure stood about 8.2 feet(2.5 meters) tall, with a silver, armored head, four arms, and a long tail covered in spiked armor.

He looked like a giant insect warrior, except instead of fragile chitinous armor, he was covered in gleaming, thick plates of metal.

Cocytus, Ruler of the Frozen Rivers, guardian of the fifth level of Great Tomb of Nazarick, level 100. He wielded twenty-one weapons and had the strongest attack power among Nazarick's four most skilled melee fighters.

"The match is about to start. You should step back," EeDeChi said with great poise, but received no response.

She turned to see that Barrett had already slipped behind the ruins of the spectator stands.

From behind the broken walls, Barrett poked his head out and gave EeDeChi a thumbs-up from a distance. "Good luck!"

For the first time, EeDeChi experienced the speechless feeling Barrett had encountered many times before. She shook her head, drew her giant sword from her back, and faced the towering silver figure, standing firm.
