Chapter 186 Does the Spirit Cat Automatically Capture Targets?

Of course not. When a summoner's summoned beast is set to free attack mode, it will automatically attack any non-friendly target that enters its aggro range. The Spirit Cat, relatively speaking, simply has a larger aggro range; you could understand it as having more acute senses.

And this map was carefully chosen by Luo Ji. In the entire Glory one-on-one duel map pool, there isn't a second one he's more familiar with. For Jia Xing to think that he could just outflank Luo Ji and launch a sneak attack, he was really treating Luo Ji like a complete newbie, underestimating his thorough thinking and familiarity with the map.

Luo Ji had already anticipated the sneak attack from behind! The Spirit Cat was directed to a position where it could detect whether there were enemies in that area. Poor Jia Xing had no idea, and was happily waiting for an opportunity, finally waiting for the Spirit Cat, and waiting for another Demon World Flower.

Mo Guang resummoned a Demon World Flower, placing Battle Mage Aotian within its attack range. Then, the Ice Wolf also pounced over rapidly.

Mo Guang continued his incantation, and another summoning circle gradually solidified on the ground, followed by a hawk's cry. A Thunder Hawk rose from the summoning circle, circled slightly in the air, and then flew like lightning towards Battle Mage Aotian's location.

Flying as fast as lightning, and capable of spitting thunderbolts, the Thunder Hawk was one of Mo Guang, the summoner's, main summoned beasts.

Four-Beast Style!

Seeing the Spirit Cat, Ice Wolf, and Thunder Hawk appearing on the battlefield one after another, players familiar with the game had a rough idea of what style this Happy summoner, who was making his debut, was using.

Little Flying Dragon, Ice Wolf, Thunder Hawk, Spirit Cat.

Known as the Four Summoned Beasts, they represent the fire, ice, light, and dark attributes in Glory. A summoner combination centered around these four beasts is known as the Four-Beast Style. In the Level 75 update, a powerful move was introduced that required all Four Summoned Beasts to unleash: Beast King Four Elements Array, further increasing the power of the Four-Beast Style.

Now, the Spirit Cat, Ice Wolf, and Thunder Hawk have already appeared. How far away could the Little Flying Dragon be?

Luo Ji didn't disappoint everyone. The Little Flying Dragon was the lowest level of the four beasts, and the fastest to summon. In an instant, another incantation, and the Little Flying Dragon finally flew out of the summoning circle, spewing flames from its mouth and nose, following the Thunder Hawk towards Battle Mage Aotian.

When Jia Xing saw this formation, he immediately felt that things were going badly.

The Spirit Cat was difficult to get rid of, and now he was caught in the attack range of the Demon World Flower. The other three beasts were coming one after another. If they formed an encirclement, and then the Beast King Four Elements Array was activated, Battle Mage Aotian would definitely lose a layer of skin.

This guy is quite ruthless!

Jia Xing finally put away his previous contempt and realized that Luo Ji was not an opponent he could easily manipulate. At this time, several summoned beasts were being released one after another, with layers and order in their attacks, making it really difficult to deal with.

Run?

With the Spirit Cat entangled, and the speed of the Thunder Hawk, running was really not a smart move. At this moment, it seemed that he could only forcefully break through this encirclement of summoned beasts.

This guy forced himself into such a difficult situation as soon as he made a move, he really was a bit troublesome!

Jia Xing had a headache, but there was no other choice. Acting as soon as possible was the best policy.

Waving his battle lance, he deflected the Spirit Cat's jumping attack once again. A Dragon Tooth skill knocked the Ice Wolf away.

Boom!

Battle Mage Aotian's body flickered with residual electric light. After two moves, he was finally hit by the Thunder Hawk's thunderbolt.

How troublesome.

Jia Xing didn't have any mood to be arrogant now. He could see that the attacks of Mo Guang's four beasts weren't being carried out automatically by the summoned beasts, but were being commanded and controlled by the other party, which was why they had such order and rhythm. Suddenly, it became really difficult.

Not preparing to move forward any further?

Jia Xing watched Summoner Mo Guang's actions. Summoners have the skill Whiplash, which can be used to whip summoned beasts to increase their combat power. In this situation where an encirclement has already been formed, most summoners would come up and whip their beasts to give them some extra strength.

But Mo Guang didn't. He just stood far away, constantly using seals to coordinate the actions of his summoned beasts.

It seems I can only wait until the summoned beasts are replaced…

Jia Xing was helpless. This precise attack really made him feel at a loss. He couldn't run away, and could only wait for one of the summoned beasts to disappear and be replaced by a new one, which might create an opening.

Therefore, Jia Xing stopped focusing on breaking out quickly, and began to fight with the summoned beasts. One against four, plus the interference of a Demon World Flower. If the summoned beasts' attack methods weren't relatively simple, Jia Xing wouldn't be able to hold on at all. But as it stood, he could barely cope…

The survival of summoned beasts depends on two conditions: time and life.

Waiting for time was too passive, so Jia Xing would definitely make some attacks, trying to eliminate one or two of them quickly. But these Four Summoned Beasts were not so easy to eliminate. The Spirit Cat was agile and difficult to catch; the Thunder Hawk and Little Flying Dragon were both flying creatures, making them even harder to hit; counting them up, the Ice Wolf was probably the easiest to deal with, but the Ice Wolf happened to be the one with the thickest fur and the most health among the four beasts.

How did it end up like this? Jia Xing was in tears. He originally thought he could arrogantly crush a noob, but who would have thought that in the end he would be struggling hard for survival again. In the 27 rounds of the competition, he, this newbie on the new team, had already experienced too many scenes. Why was he still having such an encounter when facing a newbie on a new team, and in their first match?

Was he being habitually cautious?

Was he immediately thinking of defense as soon as he encountered a little obstacle?

After fighting against so many experienced senior experts, had he been pressured into losing his aggressiveness?

A series of questions arose in Jia Xing's mind.

He didn't want to continue like this!

But if even the opponent in front of him could suppress him so heavily, when would he ever be able to take the initiative on the field?

Initiative!

He needed to take the initiative!

He couldn't get used to being passive, willing to be passive, or he would never get a chance to stand out?

Howling Dragon Breaks the Army!

Jia Xing seemed to awaken suddenly, and saw an opening ahead at a glance. Without even thinking, he immediately made a move. His subconscious action made his fingers move more nimbly and accurately than usual. Battle Mage Aotian, charge!

Bang!

The Spirit Cat, which was pouncing up, was half a beat slower. Its attack judgment was completely incomparable to Howling Dragon Breaks the Army, and it was directly bounced to the side. The Thunder Hawk's thunderbolt and the Little Flying Dragon's fireball both fell behind Battle Mage Aotian, causing him no damage.

He broke through!

Jia Xing was overjoyed. He was even a little confused about how he had done it. That opportunity just now… if it wasn't for the impulse, if it wasn't for the subconscious action, perhaps he would have missed it because he thought he couldn't do it?

So, he was quite capable after all!

With a joyful mood, Howling Dragon Breaks the Army crushed through the formation formed by the Four Summoned Beasts. The vines of the Demon World Flower quietly emerged from the ground, but Jia Xing was not careless in his defense.

Battle Breaks the Mountains and Rivers!

Battle Mage Aotian soared into the sky, and the surging magical battle aura spread at the tip of the battle lance. Jia Xing only felt refreshed.

He had only seen such heroic fighting styles in the matches of the great gods! But now, he could actually execute it in a match himself. He could do it! He really could do it!

Battle Mage Aotian landed, and the surging magical energy spread out, preventing even the Thunder Hawk and Little Flying Dragon in the air from getting close.

Luo Ji's Mo Guang retreated repeatedly, hurriedly escaping the range of this attack. But at this moment, he and his summoned beasts were separated into two locations by this surging ultimate move. How could a summoner without summoned beasts face a fierce Battle Mage?

How did it suddenly collapse?

Luo Ji was also wondering in his heart at this moment. He should have been controlling them well.

Under Ye Xiu's guidance, he finally chose the Four-Beast Style as his summoner style. Because he could control four summoned beasts to complete attack deployments quite well. That kind of Sprite Style, with summoned beasts all over the ground, although it had a large lineup, and the Level 75 addition, Sprite Sacrifice, was even known as the number one output ultimate move for summoners, but if you couldn't control it, you couldn't unleash its power even if you had a great move.

But this Four-Beast control, which even Luo Ji himself was quite confident in, was actually broken through by his opponent? Was he neglecting some detail?

While Luo Ji was thinking, he was already redeploying.

Summoned beasts could be resummoned after they died, so many times they could withstand damage head-on. But the Battle Breaks the Mountains and Rivers had a powerful impact. Even if it didn't inflict any damage on the summoned beasts, they would still be unable to advance because of the magical battle aura. The four beasts, which were blocked outside the circle, didn't have time to charge forward to attack. Luo Ji quickly controlled Mo Guang to resummon and replace them, taking advantage of the fact that Battle Mage Aotian still had a little bit of recovery time.

He could make it!

In terms of calculation ability, Luo Ji was even more confident. As expected, before Battle Mage Aotian charged up, Mo Guang resummoned an Ice Wolf to guard him, but…

Spinning Swing.

The Ice Wolf was thrown behind him by Battle Mage Aotian with a Spinning Swing. Immediately afterwards, a Wolf Fang skill pierced his body.

A summoner who was attacked at close range would have very miserable combat power. But even if the summoned beasts were still on the field, without instructions, they would automatically launch attacks.

However, Battle Mage Aotian disappeared while moving and attacking in several segments.

Instantaneous Movement!

This Battle Mage had unexpectedly chosen the Elementalist's Instantaneous Movement as a weapon skill.

Falling Flower Palm hit Mo Guang in the back, and he lunged forward, then saw his four summoned beasts, obediently lined up in a straight line.

Summoned beasts without instructions were indeed useless! Luo Ji quickly wanted to control them to disperse, but it was too late…

Soaring Dragon in the Sky!

Battle Mage Aotian threw out the battle lance in his hand, and the magical battle aura spiraled into a dragon, grabbing Mo Guang and his Four Summoned Beasts together.

Boom!

The magical battle aura exploded, traversing and shining on these several targets, looking extremely brilliant.

I really can do it!

Jia Xing was really satisfied with his performance today.

Ah… it was clearly good at the beginning, how did it become like this again? Luo Ji was sighing.
