The Great Thief - Chapter 990

Chapter 990
When the little girl transformed, Lucky Southern Persian bitterly realized that she was no longer a valid target for Polymorph .


The main buffs of the demon transformation were in Physical Defense . There was also an increase in Magic Defense, but it wasn't as much as Physical Defense . Her attacks also became more physical .
In Dawn, Mages had the weakest Physical Defence .
With his shield still on cooldown and his low HP bar, there was no way for him to survive Kitty Likes Meat's demon transformation .
In the moment that he fell, the entirely stadium was silent .
It was an upset, a true upset!
Lucky Southern Persian was one of the top players in the current gaming circle . He had won and lost matches against Blood Dagger, and even Sorrowless didn't have a 100% win-rate against him .
However, this top level player, was now a miserable corpse at the feet of a newcomer .
Kitty Likes Meat didn't have much HP left, and Lucky Southern Persian just had to hold on for a little bit longer . If he had done so, or used Polymorph a little earlier, he might not have lost the match .
Seventh Heaven's next player was the Hunter Vast Silence, who was another veteran player .
Kitty Likes Meat, who was at critical HP, didn't cause him too much trouble . He quickly depleted her health 24 seconds after the match started . These two guilds were just taking turns to send out their next player .


Fat Monkey then killed Vast Silence before he was killed by the next Seventh Heaven player .
Seventh Heaven's final player was up against Moonlight, so there was no suspense in the match up . In the end, Ruling Sword won the individual rounds with a slight advantage .
During the intermission, reporters went around interviewing the two most popular players after the individual rounds .
Normally, this wouldn't happen as there were still more matches to be fought and the players needed to rest and regroup . However, if the matches were exciting enough, then that would be another matter .
Kitty Likes Meat was a newcomer and needed the exposure . Lucky Southern Persian didn't need the exposure, but losing to a newcomer wasn't a good look, so both parties ended up accepting the interviews .
Reporter: Did you both expect the result of today's match?
Kitty Likes Meat: Of course not . I really wanted to win, but I wasn't sure . After all, Southern Persian is someone I really respect .
Lucky Southern Persian was relieved, as he was afraid that this newcomer would have a big mouth .
In fact, there was a similar situation before . A newcomer had managed to defeat a veteran then insulted him, telling him that his time was over and that it was their time to take centerstage .
That newcomer was young and a little immature; perhaps their personality also contributed to it .


However, the veteran was frustrated and immediately announced his retirement . Although the newcomer might not have been the main cause, the public still blamed him .

As a result, the newcomers in all other clubs faced bullying, and were generally resisted by the gaming circles .
This lasted around three to four years . At a particularly tense time, the then-newcomer publicly apologized to the veteran, who told everyone that he had found a new life .
That newcomer's name was Green Flag Wine . It was hard to believe that such a reserved player like the Tire Killer would have been part of such a great controversy .
Lucky Southern Persian wasn't going to retire because he had lost to a rookie, but it still didn't feel good .
However, upon seeing Kitty Likes Meat's humbleness, he didn't feel so bad anymore . When the reporter turned the microphone to him, Lucky Southern Persian said loudly, "Kitty Likes Meat managed to win today and it wasn't because she was lucky . I'm not even sure if I would win even if I faced the same trick again . She has great talent and mental fortitude . "
Reported: Do you think that she will get far in this industry?
Lucky Southern Persian: I have no doubt that she will make great progress . It's no secret that we are very jealous of Ruling Sword, having discovered the talents of players like March Rain, Fat Monkey, Kitty Likes Meat, Sakura Memories, Moonlight and Mu Qiu .
Reporter: So, you think that several of the rookies in Ruling Sword have potential?
Lucky Southern Persian: It's hard to say . March Rain and Fat Monkey are making rapid progress, but If I had to pick one, I think that Kitty is a prodigy . She is much stronger than I was when I first started .
Reporter: Wow, high praise from Southern Persian! Are you happy Kitty?
Kitty Likes Meat: Of course I am . Thank you Southern Persian, but I am no prodigy . My dad used to be a professional player and has been teaching me since I was very young . You could say that I was raised on the influence of these games .
Lucky Southern Persian: I see, that clears up a lot of things . Your father must be a great player .
Reporter: Southern Persian, how are you feeling about the rest of the matches?
Lucky Southern Persian (laughing bitterly): What are you trying to say? When facing someone like Lu Li, no one can be sure of anything . Let's not forget that players like March Rain, Fat Monkey and Kitty Likes Meat were all enlisted by him . I can't even imagine how he managed to bring all these people together .
Reporter: Between Elevenless and Lu Li, who do you think would win?
Lucky Southern Persian: Lu Li, even though I don't know how he would do it . There is a saying around the professional gaming circle right now that Elevenless always dies when he runs into Lu Li . There haven't been any exceptions so far, no matter who initiates the fight .
The reporter laughed before finally ending this harmonious interview .
Kitty Likes Meat returned to the Ruling Sword lounge and was congratulated by everyone . If it wasn't clear before from her 1 v 2, it was now obvious that Kitty Likes Meat was the strongest among the
rookie .
No one was really hung up on the fact that Lu Li had taken a bit of Lucky Southern Persian's HP before he fell . After all, the public always tended to support the weaker side .
Mu Qiu stood watching the crowd, and his face looked a little depressed .
He had joined Ruling Sword this season, and had many opportunities to play, but it was always as an assistant healer . He was always standing behind someone, never in the spotlight .
Ruling Sword had so many strong rookies that it was impossible not the feel the pressure .
Lu Li lightly pressed his shoulder and said, "There will always be more opportunities in the future . As long as you are strong, you won't be hidden for long . "
Mu Qiu smiled because he knew that Lu Li was right; there would always be more opportunities .
He liked the atmosphere in Ruling Sword; there was no manipulation or empty flatter . Everyone was just working towards a united goal .
But more importantly, as per Lu Li's insistence, Ruling Sword wasn't financially backed by any large companies . This meant that there weren't any social events that they needed to attend, which was perfect for an otaku like him .
As for a chance to demonstrate his strength, Mu Qiu believed in himself and in Ruling Sword .
