Chapter 42: 42

Everyone thought that Covey’s sentence was just a verbal threat. After all, it is not uncommon to speak harshly before a match with an opponent.

 

But it was not until the Pascal’s seven stood on the field of play and were informed of the temporarily changed game rules that Pascal really understood what Covey’s words meant.

 

“You mean, we want to play six games with them one-on-one, and the side that wins the most in these six games will win and qualify for the promotion?”

 

Pascal looked at the referee with a sullen face.

 

His aura was full, and the threat was too obvious. The referee was only a third-level earth elementalist, and at this time, there was a fine sweat on his forehead. He subconsciously glanced in the direction of the Ansai City Lord, who was watching the game in person. The latter nodded to him vaguely. The referee wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Pascal, “No , That’s right!” And this little movement of his was naturally captured by Pascal.

 

“Originally all battles are team battles, you should explain to us why this game is the only exception!” Pascal’s eyes darkened instantly, and a storm was brewing inside.

 

The referee said loudly: “This is also for the sake of your team. After all, the players in the last game… Without the tacit cooperation of the Miracles (Covey’s team), the chances of you being accidentally injured will also be reduced. Much smaller.” During the referee’s speech, Pascal kept a sarcastic expression on his face, and the referee changed the subject: “Of course, you can’t blame the Miracles because your chances of getting injured have increased, and neither are they Intentionally, they couldn’t hold back when they fought a teamfight…”

 

Speaking of which, the referee became somewhat incoherent under Pascal’s half-smiling gaze. Because even he himself didn’t quite believe what he said.

 

Will the Covey team turn team battles into individual battles in order not to hurt their opponents? Ghosts believe it! They can change the rules of the game so easily, and there must be the support of Lord Ansai behind them. Pascal glanced at Ansai City Lord Ma, as the city-state directly under Floville, the messenger of Serantte came here, Ansai City Lord could not be clear about the identity of their group. Is he courting Serantte?

 

The short, chubby city lord felt Pascal’s gaze, touched his bright bald head, smiled at him, and showed his front teeth, which was both funny and silly, giving life an inexplicable joy. feel.

 

Pascal was very dissatisfied with the referee and the Ansai City Lord, but he did not vent his dissatisfaction. In the game in front of him now, he has to compete, or not, unless he is ready to withdraw from the game. However, just obediently swallowing your voice and letting others bully you? Don’t be kidding, he’s not a bun! He just made up his mind to give a good lesson to Covey and others who dared to make their own ideas, and then ‘visit’ the City Lord’s Mansion after the game is over.

 

Pascal’s players obviously do not have his patience. The bad mood made them look at the Miracles hostilely. Covey’s players sent six pairs of oversized sanitary balls toward their opponents. The only one who didn’t move was Covey, but he looked like a clown, but he was more hated than his teammates.

 

“It sounds like this is still for our sake?” Thorn spoke to the referee, but stared sullenly at one of the Covey team: “Then why did you tell us before the game changed? Although I participated in the game for the first time, But I also heard that your competition was held to select fighters for the god Brahmandene. This type of competition has always required fairness and justice. But now, look at what you are all doing, you are actually treating your most respected god. Lie!” A strange smile appeared on his face: “What kind of punishment do you think you will get?”

 

The referee listened, and the sweat that was about to stop accelerated, and he turned into a sweaty man.

 

Covey led the way into the field of the game: “Only the clown jumping on the beam will continue to play tricks before the game.”

 

Claire squinted at him: “Only people who can’t afford to lose will use relationships to cheat before the game! A group of scumbags, what qualifications do they have to be arrogant in front of us! If you really think you can beat us effortlessly, then don’t play some unprofessional tricks and compete with us in an upright manner!”

 

Claire knew how to be aggressive, and several of Covey’s teammates had red eyes and could not wait to rush up to refute It’s a pity that her words were stopped by Covey at the last moment: “If you can put your verbal efforts into the game, maybe you can last a little longer under our hands.”

 

Covey refused to accept the move, Claire could only hold back even though her teeth were itching with anger.

 

Under the referee’s signal, the two sides sent the first person to participate.

 

Pascal’s team played in the first round by Claire, and the other side sent a man named Eld. He was taciturn and was the only one who didn’t show any expression when he faced the provocation of Claire and others just now except Covey. He feels so gloomy.

 

Although Claire was furious, she was very rational. She knew very well that the rookies who had been bullied by her were not the ones standing in front of her. As soon as the game started, she launched a violent attack on Eld. The elemental force overflowed from her body, and the khaki-yellow light clusters floated in the air. That pure color showed Claire’s elemental power level and her state.

 

When he saw the light group again, Eld was surprised for a moment, and then he felt his feet sinking. He looked down and saw that the soil under his feet suddenly loosened at some point, the sand continued to sink, a huge pit was forming, and his feet were firmly adhered by the sand, as if he had accidentally fell into a vast land, and the harder he struggled, the deeper he fell. At the same time, outside the giant pit, countless thorns were like towering trees that suddenly grew into the sky, swaying countless branches, blocking Eld’s escape direction from a 360-degree angle.

 

As soon as the battle started, the form developed towards the unfavorable side of Eld, but Eld did not show the slightest panic on his face. He calmly observed the flow of sand around him.

 

Seeing the light that occasionally flickered in his eyes, Claire felt a little uneasy in her heart. She increased the output of her strength. The soil under Elder’s feet soon began to loosen, and his figure swayed. Just as he was about to fall, the surrounding water molecules suddenly converged into small spheres of water blue light, and then, the audience in the stands heard a sound like a rushing waterfall.

 

The swamp pit that Claire had dug with the elemental forces had formed, but Eld filled it with his water, turning it into a deep pool.

 

Impulsive water waves formed a curved surface above the horizon, holding Eld up high.

 

Seeing the move that consumed nearly a quarter of her elemental power was disintegrated by the opponent, Claire manipulated the earth thorn to attack Eld from 360 degrees before the opponent had time to counterattack. The thorns of the earth formed a wrap around Eld almost instantly, so that others could not see Eld’s figure.

 

Eld’s teammates on the sidelines slammed the wall hard because of this scene, and the other person gave him a look, hissed, and turned his head in disinterest.

 

As temporary members of the same group, they all know that they don’t care about each other’s safety. What they care about is whether their teammates will hold back their team in the game and let their team face the face. Even let them leave a bad impression in the heart of the city master of Serantte. From a certain point of view, the people of the Covey team are relatively indifferent, and they are brought together by only a words: future.

 

Captain Covey sat in the viewing booth, his expression did not change at all from beginning to end, making people wonder if he was too confident in his teammates, or did he not care how he behaved? If his teammates were really seriously injured or even unfortunately damaged in this game, wouldn’t he be even a little bit moved?

 

From the beginning of the game, Claire launched a fierce attack on Eld, but unfortunately, her opponent was not someone who could be easily eliminated by her.

 

After Claire wrapped Eld roughly with the dense thorns, she began to manipulate the thorns to compress Eld’s living space. Because the other party was Serantte’s subordinate, she did not keep her hand. When the sphere composed of strips of soil thorns was reduced to the size of its original size, there was a sudden wave of fluctuations in the sphere.

 

The turbulent water flow instantly penetrated the menacing earth thorns, making them slippery and soft, losing their original attack power. Large tracts of soil began to collapse, like a house in disrepair, which could be dismantled feebly with just a little impact.

 

After the layers of thick soil were broken open, it was not just a spirited Eld who greeted Claire. Before he showed up, one after another sharp ice blades slashed at Claire’s face.

Claire’s eyes widened. Ice blade! This is a move that a water elementalist can only use after reaching level 5 or above. This unobtrusive fellow called Eld. He is actually a master whose strength is no less than hers!

 

The water element has a certain restraint on the earth element, and with the loss of absolute suppression in terms of rank, Claire’s battle was very difficult.

 

After several rounds of confrontation, Claire has already found out Eld’s strength. Eld’s current elemental power level is the fifth-level elementary level, which is slightly lower than her. Therefore, Claire can barely keep up with the opponent when the elements are unfavorable. In terms of combat experience and combat awareness, Eld is also a warrior no less than Claire.

 

Claire’s effective long-range attack is achieved through dirt. In the past, all the earth under her feet could be used as her weapon, but now, in front of Eld, her attack method lost its effectiveness. Not only that, but Claire had to be on guard against the ice arrows that would come out of nowhere—thank goodness, Eld’s control of ice was a little rusty now, otherwise, Claire probably wouldn’t be able to hold on.

 

Knowing that she had no advantage in long-range combat, Claire quickly adjusted her tactics and found an opportunity to start a hand-to-hand fight with Eld.

 

Flovilles pride themselves on their ability to use elemental powers flexibly and beautifully. For the warriors who rarely leave the city of Floville, they may be able to get good training in elemental power, which makes them throw the warriors of the small city with similar aptitude to them, but they will also be overdone. Relying on elemental force, it is slightly inferior to melee combat.

 

For the Flovilles, the arena where there is only hand-to-hand combat without elemental competition is undoubtedly rough and savage.

 

But now, Eld has a rough and savage opponent.

 

When Eld avoided Claire’s punching style again, and looked at the wall that was smashed by Claire and then fell apart, he was deeply moved.

 

Elementalists below the sixth level do not have the ability to instantly cast elements. Under such intensive close-range attacks, Eld can only choose to dodge in embarrassment. He does not want to know what those fist greetings are to him . Gradually, Eld began to get tired, and his physical strength was rapidly draining from his body. In order to keep his figure still smooth, he had to use elemental power.

 

But Eld’s total elemental power is not as good as Claire. In the battle between the two of them attacking and defending, advancing and retreating, Eld took the lead in exhausting her elemental power and physical strength.

 

Until the Ansai City referee announced that Claire had won, Covey’s group of players who didn’t take Claire and others in their eyes were still a little unbelievable. They originally ignored this game and the “hillies” who played against them, thinking that Covey deliberately formulated tactics for this game to be superfluous, but after being beaten by the opponent to the next game, they dared not do it again. I thought so.

 

The red-faced Claire walked off the arena panting heavily, and crystal beads of sweat dripped from her forehead. In this game, it was not easy for her to win, and the fighting process was really not beautiful, but she won after all, didn’t she?

 

Yu couldn’t help staring at Claire’s flushed face for a while longer. He felt that Claire, who was nourished by victory, was damn charming. Perhaps, this female was born to belong to the battlefield.

 

The two sides fighting in the second game were Jing and a wind element division. Since Jing’s own original force is also a wind attribute, this match can be seen as a duel between wind and wind.

 

Two tornadoes were entrenched in the sky above the arena, blowing the arena into pieces. The sand and dust brought by the strong wind fascinated the eyes of the spectators, and they had to use some small means to avoid the excessive impact of the wind and sand on their spectating process.

 

But the chief referee with only three levels of elemental power is not so lucky. He had to protect his eyes with one hand and hold onto the pillar near the seat with the other. If he slackened a little, he might be blown away by the strong wind. But even at this point, he still couldn’t relax his control over the situation on the field, and gave half of his attention to the match between Jing and Yiman. He fully explained what it means to command with life.

 

Jing is an excellent fighter, but in terms of force, his power level is two levels lower than his opponent’s. He is only a fifth-level beginner, but the opponent is a fifth-level high-level. Jing quickly understood this, and he was not a man to sit still. He quickly thought of Claire’s tactics against Eld just now, and wanted to fight in close combat. Unfortunately, his plan fell through. The strong wind that kept blowing on the field did not give Jing a chance to get close to Yiman at all.

 

In the end, he lost to the opponent.

 

Watching Jing walked down the arena in despair, like an abandoned dog, Pascal patted him on the shoulder: “Now, you should also know the gap between yourself and the other competitors, right? It’s just It is Ansai City. If we enter the semi-finals, there will be more strong players in the three major cities. Today, you have no choice but to lose here because your skills are not as good as others. In the future, do you want to meet again? Do you want to give up?”

 

“Never!” Jing’s eyes gradually became firm, and the hands hanging by his side clenched into fists: “They are strong, I will become stronger than them! I… definitely will become stronger than he is now!”

 

Pascal nodded: “Prove it to us.”

 

The players he led are still too young in some aspects, and blindly smooth sailing may not be a good thing for them . On the contrary, if they can get some grinding before officially entering the rematch, Pascal can’t ask for anything. The loss of a game is not important. What really worries Pascal is the spiritual defeat of these orcs with unspeakable pride.

 

Fortunately, Jing’s psychological quality is not bad, and it is also fortunate that he can keep a sober head and listen to his advice after being hit.

 

The third game is Thorn with the fire element force against the earth elementist Calais.

 

If it was said that Claire, the earth elementalist, was in a disadvantageous state against the water elementalist Eld, then Calais also suppressed Thorn faintly in terms of attributes.

""

 

The Thorns are at the level of the fifth grade, and Calais has reached the fifth grade. The disadvantage of attributes, coupled with the fact that the strength of the thorns is lower than that of the opponent, the people of the Pascal team began to worry about Thorns.

 

Six games, if they want to advance, they have to win at least four games, and now, they have lost one, if the Spurs lose again in this round, they will be very, very passive, in the Spurs. After that, Yu, Leon and Pascal had to win all three games in order for their team to advance smoothly.

 

Although Thorn is slightly inferior to Calais in strength, fortunately, this is not a leapfrog challenge. Although it is difficult to win, there is still a way to do it just by staying undefeated. Thorn has a calculating brain, and he takes full advantage of Calais’ loopholes and knocks him down. Before he fell into the trap of Thorn and fell to the ground, Calais used a stunt on Thorn, causing Thorn to lose his ability to fight, and the two ended up in a draw. It can be said that in this game, the thorns played quite well. If it weren’t for Calais’ last magic touch, Thorn would almost have successfully staged a reversal drama in which the weak defeated the strong.

 

Pascal is satisfied that he can do this now. However, he also understands that there is no problem in dealing with the preliminary rounds at such a level, and even in the semi-finals, they will not have much crisis, but to win the championship with the current level is tantamount to a dream.

 

Fortunately, they still have time and a chance to become stronger.

 

But in the fourth game, when Raymond and Covey walked into the arena at the same time, Pascal raised an eyebrow. A strange feeling suddenly rose in his heart, and there was some unease in that feeling.

 

He originally thought that Covey intended to be his opponent. In Covey’s team, Covey’s strength is the highest, and only Covey can compete against himself. Covey is playing early now, is he planning to give up his game?

 

It was different from the tense reminiscence of the two former friends when they met last time. This time, whether it was Covey or Raymond, their first reaction after they came on the court was to fight!
