After the remaining level 18 ghost saw his two companions being killed in an instant, he put away all his playfulness and devoted himself to the battle with extraordinary concentration.
First, he dodged two small flames in succession, and then resisted Agumon's sharp claws in a tooth-for-tat manner. After charging up, he launched a counterattack.
Agumon, who was knocked out, continuously sprayed out small fire attacks in the air, while Guis directly spat out puffs of white smoke from his mouth, full of corrosive liquid.
Qingliu glanced at it and identified it as the poison-type move Acid Bomb.
"Run, don't get hit by that thing."
Needless to say, Aoyagi, Agumon didn't want to be touched by this thing, so he just spit on it. It looked poisonous, but it was actually a bit disgusting.
Agumon spread its legs and moved around, dodging all the acid bombs it could dodge, and using small flames to offset those it couldn't, and then launched a covering counterattack.
After watching another shot of small flames flying out after avoiding the acid bomb again, Aoyagi's eyes fell on the running Agumon, and his expression became serious.
Although the power is even now, and even Agumon still has the upper hand due to his strong physical fitness, Aoyagi also discovered some problems.
"Even if it is upgraded, Agumon's physical strength will be greatly reduced after using small blasts. If the stalemate continues like this, we will lose."
The battle must be ended with one blow, and now the only moves Agumon can do are small explosions.
The second small explosion!
After using it, your stamina will be exhausted, but now there is no other way.
Being able to pass a level is a level.
Aoyagi asked Agumon to conserve his physical strength from now on and try not to use any moves, trying to minimize consumption while conducting guerrilla warfare to wear down Guisi's patience.
Finally, after five minutes passed, Guisi, who had been dragged to the point of being furious, chose to attack head-on. He stretched out his tongue and wanted to use "tongue licking". Taking advantage of the opportunity to close the distance, Aoyagi commanded Agumon to use a small blast.
"Huh~huh~hu..."
Agumon fell to the ground with a tired look, and even the breathing rhythm that had been stabilized by previous training was completely disrupted at this moment.
After using two small explosions in the same battle, Agumon's physical strength had reached its limit. If it hadn't been for the support of the energy cube given by Aoyagi, he would have collapsed on the ground by this time.
"how do you feel?"
Aoyagi asked while using the healing spray.
"I'm very tired. I feel tingling all over my body, but it's still within the tolerance range. Besides the energy cubes, there seems to be something else restoring my physical strength." Agumon gasped after swallowing a few energy cubes. He took a deep breath and replied.
"That's because your level has been raised again."
On the panel that only Aoyagi could see, Agumon's level had changed.
【Level】Level 16→Level 17
After defeating two level 17 ghosts and one level 18 ghost, the rich experience gained once again came into play, allowing Agumon to improve.
This feeling is very subtle, the usual sweat and the hard battle just now seem to have all come back in another way at this moment.
"Agumon, take a rest for a while. Let's go to the third floor and collect some information about the Pokémon guarding the floor to prepare for our next visit."
After Aoyagi finished speaking, Agumon didn't respond. Instead, he asked, "Aoliu, how many energy cubes do you have left?"
"There are ten more, what's wrong?"
"Give it all to me."
Aoliu paused, looked at Agumon and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"I feel that my physical strength is slowly recovering after I level up. If I eat more energy cubes, I can return to a level where I can fight normally." Agumon said, staring at Aoliu with his big green eyes.
Aoyagi didn't reply immediately, but stared at Agumon as well.
The overall physical fitness improved after upgrading will indeed restore physical strength, and eating energy cubes will indeed restore physical strength, but both of them need time to be digested. It does not mean that after upgrading and eating, the blood will be restored immediately like in the game. .
If that were the case, I'm afraid there would be some guy in shorts carrying a cart full of fruit to challenge the Lost Tower.
Even though Agumon is different from regular Pokémon, it's not that fast.
Aoyagi wanted to refuse, but Agumon's eyes were firm, which reminded him of what happened before.
Because it can become stronger quickly in the Lost Tower, Agumon should be thinking about becoming as strong as possible before completely losing its ability to fight.
If he refuses, Agumon will definitely listen to him, but...
Aoyagi opened the panel, scanned Agumon and landed on the status bar.
[Status] Weak → Recovering (it is estimated that it will take 12 hours to return to full strength and 1 hour to return to normal state)
Normally it takes one hour. With the help of energy cubes, the time can indeed be shortened. Moreover, there is no prescribed time limit in the Lost Tower, so one hour is also fine.
Looking at the information given on the panel and Agumon's earnest eyes, Aoyagi sighed and said: "Yes, you can, but you must listen to me on such matters in the future, and you can no longer make your own decisions. This is the second time It’s also the last time.”
"good!"
Agumon agreed directly, and Aoyagi reluctantly handed over all the remaining energy cubes to Agumon, and at the same time used healing spray to clean up Agumon's injuries and try to make it recover as much as possible.
…
Half an hour later, Aoyagi used the Poké Ball to retrieve Agumon, who had regained most of his energy, and came to the third floor.
After seeing that the Pokémon on the third level were a level 19 Dark Crow, a level 18 Incubus, and a level 18 Ghost, Aoyagi directly summoned Agumon to join the battle.
Because the level has been upgraded again, Agumon's speed is faster, its attacks are more powerful, and the power of its moves has also been significantly improved.
With these, coupled with the search function and command of Aoyagi Panel, even if Agumon has not returned to its peak state, the situation has remained very stable.
Then, Aoyagi once again chose Guisi, who had mastered hypnosis, as a breakthrough point, and repeated his old trick of using small explosions to kick Guisi out of the battle.
At the same time, he quickly defeated the dream demon who had just been hit in the back by a small explosion, causing difficulty in movement and greatly reducing his speed.
In the end, he paid the price of having Agumon's arm injured by the Dark Crow's wing attack. He grabbed the Dark Crow's wings and used a second small blast face to face to clear the third floor.
At the moment the battle ended, Agumon's level achieved a major breakthrough, jumping from level 17 to level 19 due to the superposition of experience points from the three battles.
This was good news, but Qingliu was not happy.
Because, he discovered something that might have an impact on his previous plans.
