Xia Chen looked at his opponent and narrowed his eyes slightly.
According to the information sent to him by the principal before the game, this guy named Chen Mo from Nandu ranked third among all the contestants this time.
Of course, this list was made entirely from the principal's perspective.
For example, some players' elves are stronger, but because they are of the fire element, they do not pose much of a threat to Xia Chen.
However, Chen Mo's elf was not restrained by either Yin Bu or Menas in terms of attributes. Instead, it was slightly restrained by Yin Bu.
That elf is a second-level quasi-god with steel and super attributes, a metal monster.
Although it is only in its second-level form, the strength of the metal monster cultivated by Chen Mo cannot be underestimated at all.
Excellent resistance, excellent durability, good attack power...
There is no doubt that this will be the strongest opponent Xia Chen has encountered since the entire recruitment competition.
However, Xia Chen has also seen Minas' efforts and progress in the past few days. As long as he can perform to his due level, he believes that his winning rate is not low.
On the sidelines, the referee's whistle sounded.
Xia Chen stopped thinking, took out the elf ball from his waist, and nodded slightly towards his opponent.
"Zhijiang Gucheng Middle School, Xia Chen, please give me your advice."
"Nandou Qixia Middle School, Chen Mo, please... give me some advice."
Chen Mo looked at Xia Chen's movements in surprise, and then looked at Yin Bu who was yawning at Xia Chen's feet, with ripples on his calm face.
The teachers watching the game also noticed this detail and started talking quietly with the people around them.
"Xia Chen's action means... to use Menas?"
"It can't be La Lulas, right? That's even more outrageous."
"Replace Yin Bu, who has a very good tacit understanding with him, in such a crucial game of 16th to 8th? So brave?"
"I don't know. Could it be a secret weapon that you practice secretly?"
"It doesn't make sense. There is a huge difference in body size between Ugly Fish and Minas. Training is like starting from scratch. What can be accomplished in a month?"
"This game is getting interesting..."
…………
Before the game even started, an unexpected situation aroused everyone's curiosity.
Of course, as Xia Chen's opponent, Chen Mo was more cautious than curious.
He was not worried. He felt that Xia Chen's idea was probably that Yin Bu was not good at fighting metal monsters, so he temporarily replaced him with Menas.
What's more, Minas can't restrain the metal monster, so he can just fight according to the idea before the game.
After Chen Mo calmed down, the referee on the sidelines just blew the second whistle.
The elf ball was thrown, two white lights flashed, and the metal monster and Menas were on opposite sides of the battlefield.
The weather was exceptionally clear in the morning of early winter. Under the sunlight, the pink and blue scales of Menas shone beautifully.
The elegantly curled up milk-white body of Menas stole the attention of the audience as soon as he appeared. Compared with it, the metal monster, which is a quasi-god, also looked dull.
As expected, as soon as Menas appeared, the number of barrages skyrocketed.
Such as...
"The beautiful energy cubes will be on the market soon, I will definitely buy them!"
"Yin Bu, don't call me again, I'm afraid Menas will misunderstand you."
The barrage of fancy praise for Janus kept flooding the screen.
However, this is a battle between elves, not a gorgeous competition that has not yet appeared in this world. Who wins and who loses still has to be determined by his hands.
As the referee's third whistle sounded, the battle officially began.
…………
"Menas, please rain!"
"Metal monster, moving at high speed!"
The referee's whistle had just blown, and Xia Chen and Chen Mo issued the first instruction almost at the same time.
I don't know if it was a coincidence or not, but the two of them did not choose to attack, but chose changing moves in unison.
High-speed movement, as the name suggests, uses the blessing of super powers to greatly increase one's speed.
Chen Mo is very smart. He knows that although Menas can move freely on land, his flexibility and speed are far inferior to those in the water.
The so-called martial arts in the world are all about speed.
Compared to Menas, the metal monster has the advantage of being able to fly. With the bonus of high-speed movement, the gap in flexibility between the two elves will only widen further.
It is conceivable that once this gap is formed, there will be a scene where the metal monster leads Menas by the nose.
However, Menas' unexpected move of "Praying for Rain" disrupted Chen Mo's wishful thinking.
Although Menus's characteristic is not that he can double his speed in rainy weather [Traveling at ease], with the lubrication of rain, his speed can also be enhanced.
More importantly, in rainy weather, Menus' water-based moves can get a huge power bonus!
The commotion sounded on the sidelines again.
Ask for rain!
This is a move that can only be mastered by ordinary elves who have grown to a senior level, but Menas actually used it easily!
We can't tell anything else yet, but at least in terms of mastering water attribute energy, Menas has an amazing talent.
…………
Amidst the whispers, the originally clear sky above the battlefield was suddenly covered with dark clouds.
Within two seconds, raindrops fell from the air.
The rain is not heavy, but it is even and lasting. If nothing goes wrong, this elf rain will not end for a while.
Although there is no harm in rainy weather, the strength can also be distinguished by factors such as the casting speed, the size of the rain, the duration, and the power bonus to water-based moves.
As for Menas' prayer for rain, no matter from which angle you look at it, it's almost beyond what amateur elves can do.
But what is faster than praying for rain is the high-speed movement of the metal monster!
Before the first drop of rain fell to the ground, the metal monster had already imbued his metal body with super energy.
Before Chen Mo could give the order, it used magnetic force to levitate its body in mid-air and launched it like a bullet, aiming directly at Menas who had just finished praying for rain!
This uncommanded move made Menas extremely uncomfortable. When moving at high speed, the metal monster's speed was as fast as lightning.
No, even if it is moving at high speed, it is impossible for an amateur metal monster to reach such speed...
Xia Chen frowned slightly and immediately realized, it was a bullet punch!
Only bullet boxing can achieve such an effect.
High-speed movement plus bullet punch...
Xia Chen was very sure that Chen Mo's sudden fast break had only one purpose, and that was to steal the rhythm!
So... no matter what, Menas must withstand these three axes from the metal monster at the beginning!
…
Looking at the metal monster that was like a UFO hitting at high speed, Menas was stunned for a moment.
"No need to charge up, just hit him back with water cannon!"
Xia Chen's loud shouts passed through the rain curtain, waking up the somewhat dazed Menas.
"Fuwu!"
He subconsciously opened his mouth wide, and azure energy instantly condensed in his mouth.
With the help of the surrounding humid environment, the water cannon with a small diameter quickly took shape.
Without accumulating power for another second, the raging water burst out from Menas's open mouth, and the general resisted the metal monster that had already rushed in front of him.
The momentum of the metal monster's body interacted with the thrust of the water cannon, and it seemed that no one was at a disadvantage.
But Chen Mo frowned and used the metal monster's body to collide with Menus' water cannon. No matter what, he suffered a loss.
We can't continue to be entangled with water cannons like this, we must change our thinking...
Thinking of this, Chen Mo shouted in a deep voice: "Metal monster, lower the flying height and use the thunder fist!"
