Once Human, Now a Parasite

Chapter 410

The group of cultivators was split into two teams by the fairy creature . Fortunately, Lucy and Arthur belonged to the same team . Emily and the princess were also with them, however, the silver-haired woman was in the opposite team .

The game is simple with clear rules, if the ball hits you and then touches the ground, you're out . Even if you're part of the winning team, it doesn't mean you'll directly pass to the third level . Everything is calculated based on performance, meaning that if you do nothing and get hit at the beginning, you're most likely going to be sent out of the garden .

For people with their status, playing such a childish game may be humiliating or demeaning, however, none dared to object . This was the Paradise Garden and they have to follow the rules, no matter how absurd they were .

The levels are always random and will never be the same as the ones in the past, nevertheless, Arthur never expected to play dodge ball in here .

Knowing the physical strength of everyone here, it won't be a normal match of dodge ball, still, it's bound to be fun with Lucy's sister as the enemy .

They were given special clothes to distinguish themselves from the other team . The number of players is a bit high but the place of the match is considerably wide too so it had no problem fitting thirty-six people .

Arthur and Lucy remained at the back, gazing at the back of their teammates . Through a simple coin flip, it was decided who'll get the first shot, their team, luckily .

Being the most powerful and famous ones, Emily and the princess took the lead . Amidel's daughter looked cute as changed her hair to a ponytail and even wore tight sports clothes . The princess stood next to her friend, her tall blond hair mesmerizing many of her teammates .

The match smoothly started, the lively girl didn't hold back as she hit the nearby enemies, not letting them enough time to escape .

Although it was a normal ball, it was strengthened by her Nether Energy thus it was stronger and faster, and that's while excluding the force behind her throw . After hitting four cultivators, the silver-haired woman finally joined the fight as she jumped in the air and snatched the flying ball, which was about to return to Emily .

The woman's body spun in the air as the ball turned illusory, it whistled in the air as it made its way toward Emily .

The girl swiftly jumped to the side, easily dodging the ball only for it to pass through the cultivators that were just behind here and hit two unsuspecting females, which were teleported out of this place the moment the ball fell on the ground .

Some cultivators wanted to show their strength in front of the two beautiful girls only to fail miserably as the silver-haired woman took the lead, not letting the others get a glimpse of the ball .

She would catch it mid-air and send it back with double the strength . Her body was flexible as it dodged the ball by a hair's width .

She hit nine people before Emily and the Princess started retaliating . Using their powers, they would slow down Lucy's sister before getting rid of the weaklings .

In the end, Emily's side had six people remaining . As for the other side, only the silver-haired woman and Jace were left .

Speaking of the muscular black man, he participated for a bit and killed three then retreated to the back, unwilling to disturb the excited Silver-haired woman, who seemed to enjoy playing .

Her indifferent face was a bit red, either from excitement or tiredness . The secret Realm greatly weakened and she had been doing her best to resist the two girls for more than two hours .

They weren't a short pause to rest so they went at it for more time than they had initially predicted . Emily, the princess, Arthur, Lucy, and two others, who were quite decent, started to cooperate .

Jace, however, remained motionless, like a statue or a thick pillar . He was far away from Emily's team, who didn't pay him much attention and focused on hitting the fast woman .

She made great use of her Dark Void Physique as she would pass through the ball every time they think they hit her .

Arthur and Lucy would stay at the back and merely dodge, they haven't thrown the ball even once . Emily and the princess were a bit selfish as they would always snatch the ball and attack, not passing it to them so they could try their luck .

Well, it's not like it mattered, they'll act when these two girls are out . As it was taking more time than necessary, Arthur decided to lend a hand to the enemy .

The silver-haired woman stretched her hand and caught the spinning and fastball, which pushed her three or four meters but was still unable to escape from her hands .

She ran toward the two girls before swinging down her hand, throwing the explosive ball at them .

The princess side-stepped to the side, barely dodging the ball, which strangely deviated in the air and flew toward Emily .

Who tried to dodge only to land in front of the flying ball . The girl raised her hand, trying to hold the ball only for it to deviate again, hitting her right in the face .

Arthur, who was behind this, inwardly snickered, enjoying the show .

'Serves you right . '

It was a team game yet these two girls only thought about themselves, it wasn't fair and the other teammates didn't dare to talk .

The gravity suddenly increased, causing the ball to quickly fall on the ground . The princess, who manipulated her mysterious pink energy, trying to catch the ball, was left surprised as Emily was teleported out .

The blond-haired princess grumbled as her expression changed, she picked the ball and glared at the enemy . She crouched her body then shot up like a rocket, she only stopped when she reached the line separating the two teams .

The body, infused with an abundance of the pink energy, zigzagged in the air as its traveled toward the silver-haired woman .

From out of nowhere, a tall and muscular black man, who had steam emitting from his whole body, jumped in the air and grabbed the spinning ball . His large hand tightly held the ball, which caused him to be pushed back some distance but he still safely landed .

He cracked his neck and heartily laughed before taking a deep breathe and throwing the ball, not bothering to aim at any of his enemies .

The ball wasn't fast but it cracked the ground under it, leaving a trail similar to the one left by an earthquake . Without a doubt, Jace wanted to get rid of them all at once .

Arthur, Lucy, and the two other teammates jumped in front of the back, each one supporting the other . The one at the front was Lucy, who bravely used her hands to catch the ball .

Obviously, the destructive ball wasn't able to injure her and if she wanted to, she could easily stop it from advancing but that'll ruin the good act .

Through good cooperation, the four managed to stop the ball but the one at the back was pushed out of the ring, instantly disappearing . This leaves four one time and two one the other .

For the first time since the beginning, Lucy had the ball in her hand . The princess stared at her but didn't demand the ball .

Calmly, she walked toward Jace and her sister (supposedly) and swung her arm, sending the ball flying at the enemy .

She didn't use any energy or skills, just pure physical strength . Unlike the others one, this throw didn't look threatening so when Jace jumped to receive it, he didn't expect to be hit by a monstrous force, sending him out of the ring .

The ball fell on the ground and was only be picked ten seconds later by a surprised and excited woman . She knew that Lucy was good fighter but her strength was truly monstrous .

Jace was a powerful body cultivator yet he was so easily sent flying, in fact, Lucy didn't seem to be trying that hard when she threw that ball, it seemed casual .

Left alone against four people, the woman didn't seem worried . She greatly enjoyed this match of dodge ball, more than she expected, actually .

Who would have thought that a challenging game of dodge ball would be more thrilling than those boring fights . Most of her battles are short and unexciting, which why the silver-haired woman drastically changed during this 'fun' game .

Her two black pupils focused on Lucy, the brown-haired big sister . The ball turned purple and half-illusory, affected by the Dark Void Physique .

Like a roaring dragon, the ball flew toward the roof before descending like lightning, heading toward Lucy . Just as it was about to hit her, it changed direction, crazily spinning as it flew toward Arthur at the back .

Unfortunately, just as it was about to hit him, it was sucked by a space crack only to appear in front of the woman's face .

The ball hit her pretty face, surprising her, however, she was still able to catch it before it touches the ground . She never expected the use if Space Magic . She wasn't exactly sure of who it was but she suspected Arthur and the other cultivator that still remained .

Arthur walked up to the princess and shyly mumbled something to her ear . The girl pondered for a moment before resolutely nodding her head .

…

Three minutes later, the match ended with the win of Arthur's team . His plan perfectly worked and the silver-haired woman couldn't block the last blow thus she was teleported away .
