The cigarette was lit, and Su Xiao exhaled a puff of light golden smoke. At that moment, the surrounding luck gradually changed, forming two fields of energy. [You are eroded by the Fate Fog, taking 1 point of true damage.] [You are eroded by the Fate Fog, taking 0.9 points of true damage.] [You are eroded by the Fate Fog, taking 4 points of true damage.] Seeing the first two notifications, Su Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, but the last notification made his heart tighten. If luck is like air, now he is competing with that woman for it. Whether he is fortunate or not doesn’t matter to Su Xiao, as long as he doesn’t have bad luck. Holding the long knife, Su Xiao slowly approached the enemy. Ada frowned, noticing the abnormality as well. "He actually resisted misfortune; this is a bit tricky." Ada pulled out a pair of black gloves from her bosom. These gloves were soft, made from the skin of some animal, and emitted a faint dark purple glow. Wearing the black gloves, Ada’s body relaxed, and her gaze changed. "It’s been a long time since I’ve fought seriously. As expected, relying solely on luck is unreliable." Ada cautiously approached Su Xiao, ranking eighth in the arena. She naturally had extraordinary abilities. Both sides slowly approached each other. When they were a few meters apart, Ada suddenly sprang towards Su Xiao. Blade aura flashed by, Ada’s body halted, and a piece was cut off her collar. Su Xiao stepped back. If he judged correctly, Ada is also a close combatant, and a very close-range one too. Ada continued to close in on Su Xiao, but Su Xiao certainly wouldn’t let her have her way. The sound of metal wire retracting reached their ears. Ada’s pupils contracted sharply, and she instinctively leapt into the air. The boundary line tightened but unfortunately failed to ensnare Ada. Su Xiao didn’t mind this; his goal was to make Ada dodge. It was all the better for him if she jumped into the air. Swiftly rushing forward, Su Xiao maintained a distance of two to three meters from Ada, which was most advantageous for him to swing his knife. Judging Ada’s landing point, Su Xiao slashed down with his blade. The long knife cut through the air, making a whining sound. If this slash landed, Ada would undoubtedly be dead. Blood spurted forth, and Ada was slashed in half at the waist; her body fell to the ground with a thud, and blood spread out. Even though he had cut Ada in two, Su Xiao immediately leaped back because no kill notification appeared after bisecting Ada. A soft embrace enveloped Su Xiao from behind, followed by a rapid sense of falling. Su Xiao’s head struck the ground, his body fell backward, and his head buzzed incessantly. Ada had hugged Su Xiao from behind and executed a backward suplex. At this moment, Ada was unscathed, and after landing a hit, she immediately went for the next attack, entwining her long legs around Su Xiao’s neck, her elbow smashing down. A long knife pierced through Ada’s chest, halting her movement and showing a painful expression on her face. With a crunch, a crystal-clear stone shattered in Ada’s arms. A dizzy and disoriented Su Xiao stood up, the long knife in his hand still piercing through Ada’s chest. He could confirm that the earlier strike had already cut Ada in two. "It seems your luck has run out." Su Xiao twisted the long knife, grinding Ada’s heart to pieces. Read complete versıon only at 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝔫𝔢𝔱 Ada’s bloody lips curled into a smile. A knee strike landed on Su Xiao’s lower back, causing his body to lurch forward a few steps. Turning his head, he saw another Ada appear behind him; the Ada with her chest pierced had turned into a scarecrow. "Fate is just so wondrous, isn’t it?" This time, Ada wasn’t unscathed. Blood was seeping out of her chest. Su Xiao wiped the blood from his chin, quickly processing the enemy’s information in his mind. Unknown name, female, aged between 19-22 years, height 1.68 meters, combat style includes diminishing enemy luck aura, close combat holds, possesses substitution or substitute death skills. Su Xiao glanced at the scarecrow not far away, bisected at the waist. It seemed there was no mistake. Checking the remaining time of Fate Redemption, there was 1 minute and 26 seconds left, which was enough. His gaze fixed on the enemy, Su Xiao rushed forward quickly. Su Xiao’s fighting style was open and slashy, with wild slashes to kill the enemy with the most ferocious of attacks. Ada, on the other hand, advanced cautiously, whether moving or attacking, being very cautious, mostly dodging Su Xiao’s attacks. The two entangled in combat; no, it was more appropriate to say Su Xiao chased after Ada to slash her. The spaceship’s wall bore a deep knife mark, Ada’s heart in her throat as she narrowly dodged. Just dodging Su Xiao’s slash, Ada suddenly felt a numbness in her foot, causing her body to stumble uncontrollably. A blood-stained metal wire emerged at her feet, severing her lower legs. "Are you kidding me? I’m going to die again." Ada looked helpless, knowing that although she wouldn’t truly die, she would have to endure the pain of death. Blade aura flashed, and Ada’s head flew up. Just after slaying Ada, Su Xiao immediately slashed horizontally behind him with Dragon Slash. An elbow strike hit Su Xiao’s nape; he had more or less figured out Ada’s routine. Being attacked once wasn’t a big deal as long as Ada didn’t hold him; her embrace, though soft, was also deadly. Ada wiped the blood from her neck, her fair neck unscarred. "Why aren’t you having bad luck anymore; that’s not logical." Ada looked puzzled at Su Xiao, who hadn’t had any mishaps for more than a minute and had nearly incapacitated her. Even though Ada possessed a substitute death ability, it had demanding usage conditions, consuming 2% of the maximum life value limit each time, usable only ten times per derivative world, and requiring a payment of one soul crystal (small) each time. If not for her incredible luck, that ability alone would have bankrupted her. Irrigating Ada’s question, Su Xiao continued charging at her. He didn’t believe she was truly unkillable; if that were the case, she was no ordinary first-tier contractor. The long knife swung down, Ada immediately jumped back, quickly gaining distance from Su Xiao. Su Xiao froze for a moment; usually, Ada would engage immediately, retaliate once before ’dying,’ and attack him after ’reviving.’ Her voluntary retreat only suggested one thing: she had few ’revival’ uses remaining or had reached the limit. Su Xiao had faced similar enemies before; homunculi had abilities similar to Ada, though hers were more advanced. Just as Su Xiao charged at Ada for the ninth time, a large hydraulic pipe exploded beside him. A strong force pushed Su Xiao back a few steps, a sharp steel plate slicing past his eyes. [You are eroded by the Fate Fog, taking 9 points of true damage.] Seeing this blood-red notification, Su Xiao sighed; the effect of Fate Redemption had ended. Though the effect of Fate Redemption had faded, Ada wasn’t in a good state either; she no longer dared to approach Su Xiao. Su Xiao’s sharp slashes made Ada wary, especially since he only targeted vital points, and the Blue Steel Shadow energy put her in a state of ’ecstasy’, the pain was almost causing her to lose control.
