Supreme Archer: Taking The Game's Weakest Class To The Top

Chapter 260: The International Tournament (20)

It didn't take long for Meredith to understand that Ender's threads weren't a threat. Stay tuned for updates on m-v -NovelBin.net

She cut them off with a sweep of her golden chain and walked into them, breaking them.

Her mana barrier was like a mini-tank that could steamroll anything.

That said, Ender was still a problem, and so was Wukong.

These two were level thirty summons, as Casual Clowns leveled everyone on their team to the tournament's threshold. Their stats matched players wielding epic and even legendary classes.

Meaning these two were more than a problem.

Meredith's golden chains went after these two troublemakers. Those weapons slithered out of her mana barrier, zooming at Ender and Wukong.

Even though these two fought well against Meredith's magic, it took her only a touch to restrict them.

[Wukong has lost his strength stat.]

[Ender has lost its intelligence stat.]

While releasing his arrows, Jake noticed those messages. His beast-tamer subclass had notified him of his companion's predicament.

It shook his heart, but it wasn't like he could do anything about it. His arrows landed on Meredith's mana barrier, eating many mana points.

She looked impassive, still focusing on Jake's pets.

Her chains wrapped around Wukong's arm. She flung him up.

Meanwhile, Ender was slapped away. He was too small to receive any kind of attack.

These two little ones crashed into the ground.

Their consciousness faded away.

Jake called them back to his tattoos, telling them they did well. Even though these two couldn't hear him, he believed they would know about it after waking up.

If not, he'd tell them the same words again.

'Using your arrows while you're unconscious doesn't go well with me, but I need them,' Jake thought as he sheathed a blunt arrow with Wukong's tattoo.

Although Wukong was unconscious, Jake could move his presence to the arrow.

Meredith's golden chains loomed over her mana barrier. She released them at Jake again, intent on not letting him catch any breath.

Jake drew the highest anchor. He released his blunt arrow at one of her chains.

The sound of a bell rang out upon the contact.

The golden chair froze mid-air.

Wukong's Arrow was one hundred percent stun, meaning Jake could stun those chains and rob Meredith of her golden chains! The plan worked, so Jake repeated the same move against the remaining chains.

'I don't know how many of them she can cast, but I got much more room now!' Jake thought. He couldn't tell whether Meredith was worried about it because of her poker face, but he wasn't the type to make his next moves based on someone else's expression!

He pulled his bowstring. 'Time for a surprise, Meredith.'

A black eagle's tattoo coiled the six-bladed arrow.

Jake released it in his strongest form, letting it whistle throughout the floor!

BANG!

Upon the impact with Meredith's mana barrier, Ender's Arrow spun against it, infecting her defense with its anti-magic properties. It took five seconds for Meredith's mana barrier to disperse.

Her chains clanked onto the floor. Their colors became silver like empty vessels.

The crowd gasped.

Even in The Seventh Division Of Europe's Esports Tournament, Meredith never looked so defenseless. She stood still in her mage equipment, so liable it was a shock.

Jake didn't let any feelings come over him.

He drew the bowstring to his face. His Death's Lock marked Meredith's face.

He let the arrow fly.

In response, Meredith simply raised her index finger.

The arrow met an invisible defense zone.

She caught the arrow, stared at it briefly, and threw it away.

"Not going to teleport to it?" Meredith asked.

Jake shook his head, "Not today."

He thought, 'Was that a normal mana barrier? So, she has two defensive skills? Or can her chain magic attune itself to all skills in her possession, similar to my legendary class? At least her chains are still stunned—'

All chains suddenly rattled.

The silver chains lit up in their respective colors before raising to cover Meredith in the strongest mana barrier of the entire tournament. The chains Jake had stunned shook off their rust, becoming lively again.

Six chains dangled around Meredith. Those were her weapons.

The rest of the chains were a part of her mana barrier.

She arched her head back, gazing at Jake.

Not even a sweat broke on her face, and she looked as fine as before the battle.

The crowd shook their head. She was much different than the rest.

Her next move proved that it wasn't her class that made her a monster.

Despite fighting Jake and his companions, Meredith kept brewing a surprise attack. She didn't let that appear on her face even when all her magic became dispelled for a second.

And when it returned to her, Meredith needed a final touch to her secret attack.

Out of nowhere, the second black chain emerged from below Jake.

He sensed it before it wrapped around his ankle.

The most impressive part of this surprise attack was that Jake had been on a constant move. Although Meredith knew that Jake's movement skill depended on arrows strewn around the battlefield, this knowledge alone shouldn't have been enough to get him as he was also skidding.

Yet, she achieved this feat.

Jake kicked the ground and jumped behind.

Alas, the chain sprouted like a flower and perched itself before him.

It was a black chain coated in a dangerous crimson-red aura: the same chain that hacked many of Jake's health points.

It swayed like a parasite before exploding.

Jake didn't even have time to put up a guard.

He was blown away.

He cratered into the tower's wall, crashing it. A web of cracks popped open around him. Broken pieces of the wall fell onto his head.

As the cloud of dirt subsided, Meredith and the crowd saw that Jake's Joker Mask shattered into pieces. The remaining piece of it hanging on his face just peeled off, revealing him to the world.

Jake gazed ahead. 'I need more… damage.'

He detached himself from the crater and pulled himself up.

Explosions rang out in Jake's ears.

Meredith's chains didn't stay idle as she broke Jake's arrows. She mercilessly cut off his means of escape and mobility… she was done playing around.

Jake smirked. 'Good girl. Taking care of me so much… I will evolve. Don't you worry.'
