Skeleton Elf
Chapter 382 Metamorphosis
Tianjing Mech took another game, leading two to zero. Anyone who dared to say that before the match would have been flamed to death.
But the officials didn't immediately announce the result. For a moment, the entire arena was filled with murmurs. Was this luck? How ridiculous! How did she determine the real body from the shadow clones? How could she be so sure? And what was that final blow?
After all, this was the Moonlings' home turf, and Eternal was such a super idol team. With the intervention of the judging panel, the voices of doubt in the arena soared to the sky. There must be a bug!
The chaotic state persisted. How could such a Yao Ying defeat Lei Huo? Regardless of the mecha, the pilot, or the level of the golden zone, no one should lose!
The livestream room also exploded. Unbelievable! Impossible to win! Either Eternal was throwing the game, or there was a bug!
Not to mention Eternal and the Moonlings, even many people on Earth were dumbfounded. How did they win? With what could they win?
Controversial battles often occur in the S-competition. The referee had already intervened. The director was calm, indicating that he was used to big scenes. The official would soon give a judgment. The camera turned to the player area. The people in the player area were calm. The strongest Athena user, Ophy, had a knowing smile on her lips. She rarely admired anyone, but Zhou Naiyi was better and more capable than she could have imagined!
After a long while, the official released two analysis videos.
The first video showed that when the shadow clones first appeared, Zhou Naiyi judged the wrong direction and attacked a clone. She was hit by the Thunder Shock, causing severe damage to the mecha. However, the slow-motion replay showed that when the Yao Ying fighter was attacking the shadow clone, her real attention was on the real body on the other side, so she was able to defend against the attack of the main body, and the Thunder Shock was clearly defended.
She was… deliberately doing that. Zhou Naiyi could already distinguish between the real and fake bodies and deliberately put on a show. However, she didn't expect Garina's attack to be so strong. She didn't anticipate the damage to the mecha, but it had the effect of confusing Garina.
The second video showed that Garina was clearly confused by the first attack. A normal person would hesitate no matter what. Unexpectedly, the Yao Ying was so decisive. Zhou Naiyi made a prediction, so at that moment, Garina was caught off guard and completely unprepared for the Athena charge released by the opponent. It was a case of someone trying to sneak attack others being ambushed.
More importantly, the final blow was the Comet Charge, the most powerful known Athena attack, which integrated three abilities: Gale, Flash, and Neutron Thrust. She had brought the Yao Ying fighter to a new level. This was no longer a simple copy. Zhou Naiyi had formed her own characteristics by mastering the three forces.
"Player Zhou Naiyi is currently the first S-competition player with three abilities. In the second game, Tianjing Mech's Zhou Naiyi wins!" The judging panel gave the final result.
At that moment, the teachers and students of Tianjing Mech, who had been holding their breath for fear of a reversal, went crazy in an instant. Cheers resounded through the sky, echoing throughout Tianjing.
Who said that the weak would be weak forever? Who said they couldn't win!
From beginning to end, Zhou Naiyi's expression was very calm. She was calm because she knew the result. Her heart was surging. She knew that this was the bottleneck that needed to be broken through.
The Sword of Oath was stuck in the ground, and the Yao Ying Athena stood at attention and saluted!
The Earth audience in the arena was boiling. Although they were outnumbered, they could not allow their warrior to be wronged.
Zhou Naiyi, Zhou Naiyi, Zhou Nai…
At this moment, the world was calling Zhou Naiyi's name. Everyone was watching, and a new Athena king was born.
"Player Zhou Naiyi is the brain of Tianjing Mech. Her characteristic is calmness. She doesn't do fancy things. When a special move is used, it's either you die or I live. There's no need for a second time." Crazy Wu waved his fist. "Two to zero! Old Huo, are you convinced!"
"Convinced my ass! Two to zero is not four to zero. What's the rush? The Heavenly King hasn't appeared yet. Can a small setback overturn the defending champion? Who hasn't gone through storms?" Huo Nan rolled his eyes and instead blamed Crazy Wu for being so inexperienced.
Of all Huo Nan's body parts, his mouth was definitely the toughest.
"How is this Zhou Naiyi like him? She's incredibly cunning!" An Lita frowned. She was actually able to hold back until the last moment, and she even made her believe it.
Someone at An Lita's level could see through everything. Garina's ability and technique didn't have any problems, and he didn't leave any opportunities for his opponent. He even held back the Flash and Gale Charge. If Zhou Naiyi had dared to use it head-on, the result would not have been good. Everyone could simulate the same moves and find a solution. So Garina was prepared throughout the match, but in the only moment he didn't expect, the opponent used it, and it was something he couldn't handle. This was a technique that surpassed Ophy's, and even the Wolf King almost failed, let alone Garina.
"The referee was wrong. It's four abilities. She should have also integrated Ophy's Weakness Detection. After all, an energy body is an energy body. With Weakness Detection, everything is clear at a glance," Hirian said. "Ophy is really willing to give it up."
It was already incredible to let others know about one's abilities, let alone share them. It was equivalent to being completely honest. How selfless would one have to be?
The people in the player area all turned their heads. Everyone knew that Ophy had been in the Tianjing Mech training ground for the past two days, and they guessed that Zhou Naiyi seemed to have the ability to imitate others. It was just that she was imitating discounted abilities, which was why everyone didn't pay much attention to it. Many people still looked down on it, calling it the ability of a parrot. But now it seemed that everyone was wrong.
What a terrifying ability! She could constantly absorb and grow. Quantity was not the problem, but being mixed and useless was. But if she could combine them… What was even more terrifying was that this woman was terrifyingly calm and meticulous. She laid out plans, confused her opponents, and delivered a fatal blow.
As long as Zhou Naiyi was given time to grow, she would be another USE powerhouse to be reckoned with. An orderly inheritance was the key to a strong group.
Thinking of this, everyone gasped.
On campus, Long Dan Ni opened the wine on the table and was too lazy to use a glass. She gulped down half a bottle.
How refreshing!
Zhou Naiyi, the student she had always favored and looked forward to, had finally grown to the height she had hoped for. Ability was secondary. What she valued was her mind. Such a mind was what could achieve great things!
With such a student, why worry that Tianjing Mech wouldn't become famous throughout the world!
The Tianjing Mech's war room was also filled with cheers. Ma Long had rushed over to flatter her as soon as possible, his face full of obsequiousness.
"Sister Yi is awesome! From now on, she's not only Tianjing Mech's Sister Yi, she's USE's Sister Yi, she's the Solar System's Sister Yi!"
"Ma Long, save some for us. You've said all the flattering things. What are we going to say!" Li Hao tugged at Ma Long's clothes. "Class Monitor, you're so handsome! Idol!"
"Hehe, you're too fake." Zhou Naiyi didn't pay attention to Li Hao. Of course, she knew that all of this was brought by Li Hao, from gravity training to mental training, and even the subsequent breakthroughs, even the Meteor Force. The more she trusted him, the more she had to do the opposite.
She hugged Sheng Man and the others. She was also very happy with this battle. She insisted on her own ideas, insisted on her own thinking, and only by winning in the end could she evolve. Her emotions were completely released.
People need to recognize themselves and strengthen themselves through victory.
After celebrating with the others, she pointed to Li Hao, "Remember to thank Senior Sister Ophy. Without her, I would have been hammered to pieces."
Zhou Naiyi really couldn't repay such help, and she didn't know how to repay it.
"I've already treated her to a meal. A very expensive one!"
"Really? Why did I hear that Senior Sister paid for it?"
Ah?
"Brother Hao, I'm not saying this to you, but this is your fault, Senior Sister Ophy, alas, how could you let her treat you! Yu."
"Ah, Brother Hao, didn't you say that you treated?"
"Wow, Brother Hao, you've refreshed my understanding once again."
Li Hao touched his nose and scratched his head. How did it become a criticism meeting for him? "Ahem, everyone, brothers and sisters, calm down. The competition is still going on, and the road ahead is still difficult. Who is their third player?"
"It hasn't been announced yet. It seems that Fan Liweite is having a headache," Sheng Man said with a smile. She had been waiting for the referee's notification, but this time the Eternal team was in a debate.
Fan Liweite's face was livid and ugly. How could they be behind zero to two? And this was their home court. They were the defending champions. Their faces had been buried in the ground.
If it were any other occasion, he would have cursed Garina to death. How many times had he reminded him, yet he was still overturned.
Garina himself was also hanging his head. His spirit had been crushed by that sword. He wasn't afraid of being defeated by a strong person, but he had already done his best, and the other party had already done their best. How could he still be defeated? This kind of defeat was the most damaging. His spirit had collapsed.
At this time, Fan Liweite only patted Garina. He couldn't scold him, because there was still a team battle later, and he still needed his ability in the team battle. He still had the strength. Similarly, although he lost, Zhou Naiyi had more physical exertion. Her stamina and zone were more damaged. If they really entered the team battle, it was impossible for this point to perform so well.
Of course, his side was even more miserable. Ant had been too ruthless and almost hammered Poison Bee into the hospital. However, Yemi had held on. After receiving emergency treatment, he was still waiting. If there was a team battle, he would still go on, even if he was damaged again. He wanted to fight, otherwise he would never get out of this shadow.
The problem was, what about the third battle?
The remaining Wu Zhanlei was a heavy armor, Bei Yof was a sniper, and Isaiah was a versatile player. The other side still had Ma Long, Musashi, and Zuo Xiaotang. It was likely to be Musashi. That guy Musashi was quite difficult to deal with. They were still underestimating their opponents. Their attention was on Cheng Konghai and Li Hao. Musashi was considered half of one, but they didn't expect that such a major competition was the fastest way for such a team to grow. What's more, there was a monster like Li Hao beside him. Back then in Apocalypse, he had also allowed the Hunters to grow without them realizing it.
At this point, Fan Liweite didn't dare to think any further. Once he lost confidence, he wouldn't be able to fight.
"Captain, let me do it. I'm confident in fighting Musashi!" Wu Zhanlei said in a deep voice. "My Sky Punishment Oceanus is still very effective against Musashi."
Wu Zhanlei took the initiative to volunteer. Compared to the instability of a sniper, especially since Musashi was still a wind ability user with a solid foundation, it was too risky. Suppressing the Black Night Saber with heavy armor was definitely possible.
"Okay, Zhanlei, whether it's life or death, it's all up to you. Brothers, we've defeated countless people together and reached the peak. What difficulties haven't we experienced? What kind of opponents haven't we encountered? This is a hurdle. Take down Musashi, and I'll take care of Li Hao. No one can stop us from winning the championship. Kill gods if they block us, and kill Buddhas if they block us!" Fan Liweite patted Wu Zhanlei hard.
