"Extremely frozen ice rings!" Without giving the other party time to react, Gawain summoned four ice rings with a wave of his hand. Under the illumination of the ice rings, Mo Xiaofeng's body condensed into an ice sculpture.
She understood why Kaguya would free her hand to push him away at the last moment. It wasn't that she didn't know that he had Yuqing's ability to protect himself, but that his souls were synchronized.
Synchronize all your abilities to Gawain, this is Kaguya's countermeasure!
Although Mo Xiaofeng broke through the ice quickly, it was too late. The red flame petals floated past her eyes. Although her trembling pupils were unwilling to give in, Mo Xiaofeng still had to accept this fact.
"You won this duel!" After the game, Mo Xiaofeng said with a smile, holding Artoris's hand.
At this moment, Artoris was still in a daze. The battle lasted for two hours, which was quite long even in a team competition. They won. With everyone's joint efforts, they defeated this strong team and advanced to the semi-finals!
"Thank you very much, and so do you." She gave a knightly salute to the other party, raised her head and looked into the girl's eyes. A trace of astonishment suddenly flashed in Artolis's eyes.
"Have we... met somewhere?" Artolis didn't know why she asked such a question. In fact, she had felt this way when they first met at Falcon Academy.
"What are you talking about? We just met not long ago."
Artoris knew that the other party was referring to the time when she and Mo Yi were on stage together during the quarterfinals of the individual competition, but that was not what she was referring to!
"I mean before that, before we met for the first time at Falcon Academy..."
"Is it the Rock City time?" Mo Xiaofeng suddenly said while Artolis was racking her brains to think about it.
Listening to the other party's words, Artolis finally remembered that at that time, she, Gawain, and Xilu had just gotten off the cruise ship. When they were at a loss when they were out of the city, three people appeared to explain the road conditions to her.
"It's really you!"
"Hey, you guys are still saying stupid things to others, come on, Xilu is in trouble..."
"???"
Originally, one should be happy when a team battle was won, but sitting around the bed in the players' dormitory, several people were not happy at all. For a while after the game, Xilu was not seen climbing out of the virtual reality cabin. It was rare for a player to fall into a coma.
There have only been two incidents in the past century, and the other one was the final of the individual competition, in which Barong fell into a coma.
"It should be that the sensory regulation is too high. I was injured in the virtual world, and the body in the outside world reacted excessively. It is an accident." This is the answer given by the medical staff.
"Should?" Geraint was disgusted with this word. In his opinion, this was probably an excuse used by the competition to deal with them.
"There must be a sponsor who bought the other party's Shengli, and then found someone to tamper with Xilu's equipment!"
"Before there is no evidence, never draw any conclusions without authorization!" For some reason, Geraint, who had always been calm, became irritable at this time. After hearing Kaguya scolding the guy, Artolis frowned and looked at the doctor.
"Then what impact will it have on Xilu?"
"It's not a serious problem in itself. It won't have any impact on your life. If you want to continue competing as a player, there will be no problem."
There is no need to say much else. Just hearing these words, several people breathed a sigh of relief, as long as everything is fine. Xilu woke up just at this time and saw a group of people gathered in front of the window staring at her. The little girl grabbed the sheets and shrank inside shyly.
Seeing this scene, the doctor smiled, shook his head helplessly, and left with the list in hand, leaving his time to these young people.
"Xilu~" Lilith hugged Xilu's neck and cried, "Fortunately, you are okay. Seeing you unconscious in the cabin really worried me to death."
"So it's okay." Xilu reached out her hand and rubbed Lilith's head, and Xilu said playfully: "Call me sister!"
"..." She seemed to be looking pretty good now. She breathed a sigh of relief and Artolis shook her head.
In the eyes of the outside world, this kind of incident is just a small episode. If the players are fine, the limelight will soon pass. Of course, what people care more about is the game situation.
If nothing else, the opponent in the semi-finals will be Marfa's clergy team. This team, how can I put it... Even Kaguya can only shake his head and sigh. Artolis knows that acquiring ordinary full-time skills seems to be quite powerful, but in fact, the further you go, the more advantage Kaguya has.
As the cultivator's strength improves, his or her understanding of the profession will gradually improve. In other words, the current Kaguya is just a dabbler who knows everything but is not good at anything. It was still more than enough to deal with ordinary cultivators, but now she had to face outstanding young cultivators like Baron and Marfa, but she had no chance of winning.
"Maybe we have to stop at the semi-finals." Unexpectedly, this sentence would come out of the mouth of the always confident Gao Wen. Artolis knew that Gawain would only say such depressing words when there was really no hope at all.
During the individual finals, everyone saw his strength. It's just that such a guy is even more difficult to deal with than Kazan in his peak state, and what makes Gawain fearful is the opponent's flames.
The Holy Flame of Light is the 74th most powerful flame in the world. Even Gawain can't help but feel weak if the other party holds such a powerful fire. Even after devouring Nanming Lihuo, the current ranking of Qinglian Jinghuo in his hand is only 80th at best. If the gap is too big, even with the protection of fire, he will not be able to escape from it.
The scene was silent for a while. After a few minutes, Xilu finally broke the silence.
"Well, I have something to say to everyone, but can you please step aside from Sister Liz?"
Do you just ask her to avoid it alone? Artoris was a little confused. She looked at the similarly confused looks of the others, and then looked at the pleading look cast by Xi Lu. Artoris smiled relievedly, and then stood up.
"If there is anything that I need to avoid, I can just say it like this. It just so happens that I also go out to relax."
"Sister Liz..."
"See you at dinner then."
After closing the door from the outside, Artoris looked a little gloomy, but she felt a little lost for no reason. He leaned against the door and sighed deeply, and then he really wanted to leave.
However, after walking only a few steps, he turned around and ran into a familiar face.
"Miss Grandpup? What a coincidence, I was planning to go find you!"
