In the evening sunset, the train was running at high speed, but there was no earthquake in the battle area in the first-class compartment. The detective who stood on the duel field only felt that everything in the world was unstable.
Next to Hugo was Douzi, who was holding the elf ball tightly. The two had prepared a game strategy before taking the stage. However, facing an almost invincible opponent, she began to tremble slightly.
Anyone who knows her well knows that this kind of trembling does not come from fear, but from excitement, and is an outward manifestation of rising fighting spirit.
Across the narrow playing field, directly opposite Douzi was a girl who looked like a high school student and was carrying a backpack.
This female high school student had an expression that said "I'm sure of winning" written all over her face, just like Dou Zi before entering the carriage.
The capital of the girl's confidence is naturally her partner - the current king of He Zhong, the master of evil attributes, Huckleberry.
The king who was involved in the low-end battle match stood upright in a corner of the arena, combing his dark blue hair in his signature exaggerated style, and smiled evilly like a poisonous snake showing its fangs.
He actually spoke directly to Douzi. Unlike his aggressive appearance, Huckleberry's voice was slow and elegant with an aristocratic temperament——
"Isn't this Miss Douzi, one of the candidates for this year's alliance challenger? Meeting her by such a chance is like winning a grand prize."
As a big shot, Huckleberry actually knows him! Douzi's heart became even heavier. He thought that this battle would turn into a surprise attack, but he didn't expect that the opponent was also prepared.
However, from the corner of her eye, the girl suddenly caught a glimpse of Hugo's head shaking slightly, and the detective's hand behind his back made an OK gesture.
Dou Zi suddenly felt unreasonable confidence, so he raised his head and responded to the King of Heaven's greetings: "I am lucky to be able to experience the strength of King Bilberry in advance."
Seeing the challenger's neither humble nor arrogant attitude, the king's lips twitched into a smile: "Very good, it seems like we can have a wonderful match today."
The female high school student next to Huckleberry also wanted to insert a sentence, but at this time the announcement in the stadium sounded loudly——
"The competition will start ten seconds after the broadcast ends. Each player is limited to one handheld Pokémon. Rotation and the use of battle props are prohibited. If both Pokémon on one side lose the ability to fight, they will lose. Next-"
A countdown began to play on the wall screen on one side, and the atmosphere in the arena gradually became tense. Among the four, only Hugo, who was in a daze, turned his head to look at the dancing numbers on the wall.
"Game start!"
The countdown reached zero, and the deafening sound of the broadcast announced the start of the game. Players throw the Poke Balls they have selected onto the playing field.
Choosing an elf to start is like guessing the game. In an ordinary doubles match, if one side can choose the opening tactics appropriately and targetedly, they will have a huge advantage at the beginning of the game. In the battle in this carriage, both sides can only choose one elf to fight, so the starting choice is even more crucial to victory or defeat.
The so-called guessing game is a psychological game. Some people may think that guessing is a game of luck with no rules, but as a detective, Hugo will tell you that this is not the case.
Everyone has his favorite guessing method. When he starts guessing without preparation, habit will guide him to choose rock, paper, scissors in a certain fixed order.
On the contrary, when he is mentally prepared to punch, his moves will indeed appear unpredictable for a short time; however, as the number of guessing games increases, this unpredictable state will converge to habit at an extremely fast speed. Until the jackpot man realizes this again and changes course, he will become a captive of the unconscious.
Yes, there is also a sure-fire way to win in guessing!
After accumulating enough information, whether you will produce scissors, rock or paper actually depends on what kind of person you are.
Similarly, what kind of Pokémon the opponent will use, the result of this guessing game has already appeared in the prediction in Hugo's brain.
"Hey!" Douzi beside him let out a short cry. That is the sound that people often make when gambling draws good cards. They cannot help but make a sound because of joy, and they have to suppress their emotions because the battle is still going on. This small sound is exactly the maniacal laughter of gamblers when their schemes succeed.
Three elves have already entered the scene. They are King Yanwu, who is standing with his arms folded like a god of war. The female high school student floats in the air for a while, then falls to the ground. hooded gangster.
——The start was exactly as predicted by the detective.
What about the Pokémon of the detective himself?
Turn back the time to the moment when the countdown ends.
Just as everyone was throwing the elf balls into the field, Detective Hugo, as if participating in a shot put competition at a sports meeting, raised the elf ball in his hand high, and then smashed it straight towards the face of the King of Unova with astonishing force.
Since it was a battle car much smaller than the official battle arena, the opponent's trainer's standing position was within the range of Hugo's Poké Ball throw.
At this time, Huckleberry had released the hooded gangster. When he looked up, he saw a high-speed rotating elf ball getting closer and closer in front of his eyes, so he subconsciously covered his eyes with his hands.
After all, the Poke Ball is not a real shot put. As long as it doesn't hit the face, it will hurt for a while at most.
However, the elf ball opened automatically as soon as it arrived in front of Huckleberry. A lively little flame monkey jumped out of it and landed on the field in front of Huckleberry.
"No!" Huckleberry, who is also a skilled gambler, immediately understood the opponent's intention, "The hooded gangster, "crack the tiles" to defeat this little fire monkey..."
However, no matter how close the King and his Pokémon are to each other, the little Flame Monkey has already carried out the task assigned by Hugo before the start of the game.
"High-five surprise".
The little Flame Monkey, who did not receive the order, took the initiative and slapped the hooded gangster in the face with a bold slap. The lizard with the orange-red crown suddenly saw the thin Little Flame Monkey appearing in front of him, and naturally avoided it subconsciously - —
But he has lost the right to take action.
The slap didn't hit the hooded gangster's face, but it seemed to resound throughout the entire carriage.
Huckleberry, like his elf, froze for a moment, as if he was also hit by this intimidating move.
At the same time, a loud bang came from the direction of the female high school student.
"Conductive flying squirrel!" the female high school student yelled. At this time, the person she was calling was being crushed under a huge rock blade, and had apparently lost the ability to fight.
Douzi, who had been complaining about King Yanwu's awkward speed a while ago, suddenly saw his Yanwu King burst out with astonishing speed, taking the first move before the flying conductive flying squirrel.
The high-power rock-type skill is the "sharp stone attack" used by Dou Zi's King Yanwu.
The small space is enough to offset the unstable hit rate of this skill. Douzi could have asked King Yanwu to choose "Double-edged Headbutt" from the skill pool to deal with the conductive flying squirrel, but he still had to fight the evil king next, so he switched instead The bet was placed on the additional "sharp stone attack" learned.
The result is naturally - instant kill!
The red upright giant pig is surrounded by surging flames. Now its physical strength has not been lost. Its red pupils are also burning with red flames, but its fighting will has reached an unprecedented state of excitement.
"Now, there is only one opponent left!"
Douzi was even more excited than King Yanwu, whose head was on fire. He stared at the expressionless Huckleberry, intending to use all his skills to make this king experience the feeling of capsizing in the sewer.
Standing on the edge of the gutter, Huckleberry was about to capsize. At this moment, he was looking at the current situation with a poker face commonly used by gamblers, without anger or joy.
Although the hooded gangster was hit by the "Slap Attack" and flinched and lost his initiative, he did not suffer any real damage at all.
From this point of view, it seems that the little flame monkey is just a novice with little training. Since the "High Five Surprise Attack" that can only be used when appearing on the field has been used, it should be no problem to leave it alone.
The real problem is the little girl's King Yanwu. This star trainer's main elf is fully qualified to challenge the King of Heaven. In addition, the hooded gangster has dual fighting attributes, so he is in a dilemma before the powerful and heavy fighting moves of the fire pig.
It looks like we're going to be in for a tough fight.
Regardless of his inner thoughts, the gambler king who was once a fallen aristocrat showed an unprecedented bright smile, with evil shark teeth intertwined and huckleberries laughing loudly.
"Haha, hahahaha... There are dishonorable victories, and there are glorious defeats. The interesting and annoying thing is that right and wrong are not always so clear-cut, just like a thrown coin does not always land on heads or tails. That way...sometimes, the coin may not hit the ground at all..."
For those who often follow the battles of the United Elf Alliance, there is one thing that is common sense——
Although the King of Evil, Huckleberry, considers himself a gambler, his fighting style is always steady and he rarely uses moves that risk his life or risk failure... This may be due to the King's reserve or his crazy heart. It is the nature of a cautious gamer.
But this does not mean that as the king of gamblers, he dare not place bets.
Huo Guo's cold command sounded in Hugo's ears: "Turbaned gangster, use "Flying Knee Kick" continuously until the Yanwu King or you fall completely! "
