Chapter 409 The European Shield

“I thought Qiao Deng was throwing the match, but now I realize he's just really bad,” Jiang Xiao muttered to himself as he watched the competition.

"Cough, cough..." Fang Xingyun, who was drinking mineral water beside him, couldn't help coughing when he heard Jiang Xiao's words.

They were in the top 21, advancing to top 11; how could he be bad?

The problem was that this "European Shield" was just too strong!

A player who was guaranteed to be in the top 8, and a player who was guaranteed to be in the top 16 advancing to the top 8, it sounded like there was only one round of difference, but in reality, when they really fought, there seemed to be a qualitative difference in strength.

The Willpower national team captain lived up to his name!

The three stripes printed on the front of his national team uniform, the abstracted eagle spreading its wings, were really appropriate.

This fire mage from the Kingdom of the Sun Never Sets was really being suppressed by the Willpower captain, Neil.

The strong and sturdy Neil, like a tank, had two red stars swirling around his body.

One was scarlet, representing greatly increased resistance to fire-type star techniques.

The other was dark red, representing enhanced body speed attributes.

Whoosh!

The dark gold heavy hammer of the Willpower captain rose again, and a star fell on his body. This star was gray, and together with the previous two stars, it rotated around his body in an orderly manner.

On the field, Qiao Deng, burning with flames, changed his expression, and Jiang Xiao in the locker room also clicked his tongue secretly.

This gray star represented that the "European Shield" was about to attack.

Jiang Xiao had studied the Willpower captain's star techniques. The gray star represented "counter-shock," which had a certain counter-shock effect against the enemy's close-range attacks.

He added speed, fire resistance, and counter-shock. What was he going to do?

Of course, he was going to stick close to his opponent!

Captain Neil held his shield in his left hand, and the dark gold color suddenly lit up. He pushed forward fiercely with one hand.

In the next moment, the huge dark gold kite shield actually carried him, crossing half of the green field, and crashed towards Qiao Deng, the fire mage from the Kingdom of the Sun Never Sets.

Qiao Deng stretched out his hands, and one materialized fire phoenix after another flew out, even with ear-piercing bird cries, flying towards the charging Neil.

Neil didn't care at all. With just this one shield, he smashed one fire phoenix after another. He narrowed his eyes, and during the charge, he waved his heavy hammer in his right hand, and a rain of stars fell from the sky.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Before the dazzling stars fell on Qiao Deng, they were blocked by a burning cloud of fire above his head.

Qiao Deng flicked two fingers, and under Neil's feet, the ground shattered, and a huge fire phoenix suddenly rushed out, directly interrupting Neil's progress and knocking him into the sky.

Qiao Deng's eyes lit up, he flicked his long hair behind his head, and five pillars of fire suddenly emerged from the ground, directly imprinted on the position where Neil was falling.

Was this some kind of formation?

According to inertia, Neil should fall into it, but at this time, Neil in the high altitude suddenly withdrew the shield in front of him, and waved the heavy hammer in his right hand repeatedly.

With the heavy hammer slamming down, one illusory hammer after another flew out, aiming directly at Qiao Deng.

Qiao Deng's expression suddenly changed. He could take the rain of stars, but he definitely didn't dare to take this heavy hammer.

Qiao Deng's feet generated wind, and he quickly flew away from the spot. At the same time, wind-type star techniques surged in his hand, and his palm pressed down hard, as if he wanted to press Neil into the fire pillar formation.

Neil, who was falling in the air, sent the kite shield forward again. Could he exert force a second time in the air?

Neil did not fall into the formation as expected, but drew a straight line in the air, rushing towards Qiao Deng in the air again.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

At the same time, the phantom heavy hammer he had thrown out before hit the green lawn heavily, and four large pits suddenly appeared, with soil flying and air waves spreading in all directions.

Every hammer seemed to be able to smash into the hearts of the audience.

Qiao Deng dodged rapidly. In the air, he could freely change direction, but... Neil's shield charge seemed to be a pointing-type star technique, and it actually had a tracking effect!

Even in the strong wind, Neil still moved forward firmly. Helpless, Qiao Deng could only use a more impactful fire phoenix to disturb Neil's direction of advance.

In the next moment, Neil made an astonishing move. The long-handled heavy hammer in his right hand disappeared and was transformed into a kite shield again, held under him!

The huge fire phoenix directly submerged Neil in it, and in this fierce flame, Neil held the shield in his left hand, and flew out almost horizontally.

The scarlet star swirling around Neil was emitting a dazzling light, and the shield that had transformed from his right hand turned into a heavy hammer again.

Qiao Deng stretched his hands forward, and a huge pillar of fire blasted out, and the scarlet giant dragon bared its teeth and claws, roaring and tearing towards Neil's shield.

The shield in Neil's hand lit up with a dazzling light, and he actually plunged into the pillar of fire!

The pillar of fire bombarded the shield, but it couldn't push back Neil's majestic body, and could only scatter around.

Qiao Deng finally couldn't take it anymore. He couldn't dodge, he couldn't blow him away. He, the dignified fire mage from the Kingdom of the Sun Never Sets, was actually going to be forced!

Suddenly, a phoenix cry came from the arena. The flames burning on Qiao Deng's body actually pieced together the pattern of a fire phoenix. As the huge wings flapped, Qiao Deng crashed towards Neil without hesitation!

The two were infinitely close, and there was a burst of cheers from the audience!

Ye Xunyang: "Is the victory about to be decided? Is the fire mage from the Kingdom of the Sun Never Sets making the right choice?"

Ma Ke: "I think he... uh?"

The earth-shattering collision that people imagined did not appear. At the last moment, Qiao Deng's body suddenly tilted, letting half of the fire phoenix's wings submerge Neil. Qiao Deng's body, which was integrated into the fire phoenix, also brushed past Neil.

"Ah! Be careful!"

"It's over!"

Qiao Deng thought he would hear Neil's painful groan, but he heard the sound of a heavy hammer rotating and flying from behind him.

Bang!

A phantom heavy hammer hit Qiao Deng's shoulder heavily, directly blasting him to the ground.

Qiao Deng's body was like a cannonball, and with a bang, he was directly smashed into a deep pit.

In the eyes of the audience, they saw a rotating heavy hammer directly smashing a huge fire phoenix. Sparks fell in all directions, accompanied by a phoenix cry of sorrow. The picture was so spectacular and incomparably tragic.

"Damn!" Jiang Xiao jumped up from his chair directly. Too tough!

A real man! Just like Wu Yao... uh, does something seem wrong?

Tough! Fierce!

Show off one's power! Charge straight ahead!

Just walking to your face step by step, no matter how you resist, you can't stop him from moving forward.

Qiao Deng failed again and again. This process was a process of moving towards despair.

And despair may bring about a real explosion.

In the deep pit, Qiao Deng endured the shattering of his right shoulder, his head in a daze, and his left hand tried hard to clench.

Then, a phoenix cry came from the pit, from all directions on the green field.

Countless fire phoenixes suddenly pieced together, and one fire phoenix after another, of different sizes, rushed madly towards Neil.

Neil blocked the kite shield above his head, and in his right hand, the heavy hammer swung out fiercely.

This time, it was no longer a phantom heavy hammer.

This heavy hammer tore apart one phoenix after another, drew a high parabola in the air, directly smashed through the 10-meter-high iron cage roof, and then rotated down, smashing through the iron cage again and flying down!

During the process of the heavy hammer falling, a huge phantom suddenly expanded on the hammer body. The huge phantom hammer was countless times larger than the main body, and it was even enough to completely cover the entire area of the midfield circle!

How big was the middle circle? The diameter was at least 18 meters, right? What area was this? What kind of hammer was this?

Boom!

The football field was completely blown up!

Jiang Xiao watched TV, grinning.

The most commendable thing about the European Shield was his defense, but look at this output...

This kind of person really had to be sanctioned by the sea burial king Bino, or Juliet Mo Loven, a great god with special attributes.

Jiang Xiao realized a very serious problem!

Had he helped this European Shield clean up all the great gods of the strong control class?

This was freaking...

Was he a cleaner?

Or an emperor of labor?

If this Willpower captain won the World Cup, half of the credit on the medal should be his, right?

This European Shield, who was originally guaranteed to be in the top eight, was now guaranteed to be in the top two, fighting for first?

Ordinary attacks really couldn't break his defense. He really needed a strong control-type magic god to fight him.

Of course, among the remaining players, the national team captain of the Northern Kingdom seemed to have very explosive output, and might really be able to break through Captain Neil's defense.

As for the others...

"Dudu! Dudu!" The referee's whistle sounded, "Willpower wins!"

The camera zoomed in. In the huge pit, the body of the player from the Kingdom of the Sun Never Sets was almost crushed. A group of medical star warriors rushed over quickly and began to treat him urgently. He didn't know if he could be saved.

The camera also turned and landed on Neil Muller.

Neil casually flicked, and the dark gold shield and dark gold heavy hammer disappeared. He pinched his national team uniform with both hands. In the battle with the fire-type powerhouse, his national team uniform was actually intact...

Captain Neil raised his head high, and the rigid facial lines showed a stern look, revealing a style of iron-blooded warrior.

His hands pinched the team uniform and lifted it forward, displaying the eagle pieced together by the black, red, and yellow stripes to the world.

Mighty! Domineering!

Jiang Xiao turned to look at Fang Xingyun. Fang Xingyun was also secretly amazed. Feeling Jiang Xiao's gaze, he couldn't help but turn his head to look over.

Jiang Xiao: "Quick, say I'll fight him in the next game."

Fang Xingyun: ???

Jiang Xiao: "Give me a sip of Jiu Xing Du Nai quickly. You said I couldn't hit George Star, and he came. You said I couldn't hit Juliet, and she came too. Now I hope you say, Jiang Xiaopi will fight Neil Muller in the next game."

Fang Xingyun: "..."

Jiang Xiao: "Teacher Fang, for me, just say one sentence."

Fang Xingyun helplessly rolled his eyes at Jiang Xiao, his voice gentle, and said, "You will fight Neil Muller in the next game."

Jiang Xiao: "That's right, I forgot a step. You first say I'll lose to Xie Yan later."

Fang Xingyun only felt the veins on his forehead throbbing, and he wanted to smash a Platinum Meteorite Blast directly on Jiang Xiao's face.

Don't even think about fighting Xie Yan, pack up and die now!
