Chapter 158: Chapter 158: Tactics
Translator: 549690339
As the whistle echoed throughout the venue, Qin Lang and Zhu Quan, positioned on opposite sides of the competition field, simultaneously gave instructions to their Food Spirits.
“Approach!”
The Food Spirits from both sides soared like meteors across the sky, rapidly closing in on each other.
Eighty meters…
Fifty meters…
A flash of color streaked across the eyes of Qin Lang, Dan Bao, and Spicy all at once.
Now is the time!
In team battles, apart from the combat power of each Food Spirit, the cooperation between them and pre-arranged tactics are equally important. Before the competition item was drawn, Qin Lang and his IWo Spirits had already considered the possibility of a 2V2 situation, and established the most suitable tactic for them.
That is to focus on the weaker opponent first, aiming to disable Zhu Quan’s two-star Food Spirit!
If they can achieve this, then Zhu Quan’s three-star Food Spirit will have to face a two against one situation, providing Qin Lang’s side with a distinct advantage.
Of course, achieving this will be difficult.
To disable a two-star Food Spirit under the watchful eyes of a three-star Food Spirit is no simple matter.
Fortunately, Qin Lang also has his advantages.
Given that the three-star Food Spirit’s abilities were already shown in previous combat matches, there is the potential for a surprise preemptive move based on this knowledge.
Furthermore, they would least expect that the first combat skill of Spicy, a mere one-star Food Spirit, would be the special skill ‘Lucky Bite Mark’, which has the potential to directly disable a Food Spirit.
Still, such a tactic carries a certain degree of uncertainty.
The specifics of the opponent’s two-star Food Spirit’s combat skill remain unknown, as does the effectiveness of Spicy’s ‘Lucky Bite Mark’.
But that’s okay.
All these uncertainties will soon become certainties.
“Thought Waves, Propel!”
The instruction from Qin Lang echoed in the minds of his two Food Spirits in an instant.
Dan Bao, already prepared, had a brief flicker of a white halo that enveloped both itself and the nearby Spicy; an invisible force formed an aerodynamic shell.
Along with the powerful surge of Thought Power, it functioned as a booster that greatly enhanced their speed from behind. In an instant, the speed of the two Food Spirits was enhanced.
With this acceleration, Dan Bao’s speed became equivalent to that of Yangyang when executing ‘Barbaric Collision’!
Three days ago, Dan Bao was unable to accomplish this. But as the proficiency of ‘Thought Waves’ improved, it could now use ‘Thought Waves’ to achieve even more!
Thirty meters…
Twenty meters…
Ten meters!
The two small Spirits and the opponent’s Food Spirit had instantly entered each other’s attack range!
[It’s Thought Waves! Qin Lang’s Food Spirits used Thought Waves for a surprise acceleration! An excellent move! What is his intention? Let’s wait and see!]
A slight surprise flashed across Zhu Quan’s face, followed by a smug smile as he seemed to understand something from the trajectory of Qin Lang’s two Spirits.
“They want to eliminate Gu Li first. He Ke, go and block that two-star Food Spirit!”
As his voice echoed in the minds of his two Spirits, the two-star Food Spirit called Gu Li paused its forward charge and put some distance between itself and the three-star Spirit, He Ke.
Meanwhile, He Ke let out a roar and charged towards the approaching Dan Bao and Spicy.
“Sa Cha!!!”
A thick, purple electric arc surged from around He Ke, forming erratic trails in the air accompanied by a terrifying ‘crackle’ as it charged straight towards Dan Bao!
This was He Ke’s fastest battle skill from his three skills arsenal: Wrath of Thunder and Lightning.
Seeing He Ke use this skill, neither Qin Lang nor his Spirits showed any surprise.
Because with other skills, He Ke may very well be unsuccessful in his interception.
“Grill!!!”
Dan Bao swung fiercely, tossing the close-by Spicy away. At the same time, it took a deep breath and a flare ignited within its body. It then blasted a jet of fire towards the oncoming electric arc.
Firepower Full Blast-Cluster!
The pillars of fire, like heavy artillery, carried a rolling heat wave and clashed with the electrical arcs in an instant.
Accompanied by bursts of roaring sounds, endless smoke and dust surged in the competition venue, and an unchecked energy storm swept in every direction.
[Firepower full blast and Wrath of Thunder and Lightning! The long-distance clash between the two contestants’ Food Spirits! Let’s see who will gain the upper hand in this collision? It’s contestant Zhu Quan!]
“Gurgle-”
Dan Bao retreated slightly, a painful expression appearing on its face.
In front of it, an invisible barrier quietly shattered.
On its body’s surface, tiny purple electrical arcs were wandering across.
It was clear that in the previous collision, Dan Bao had been at a disadvantage. However, its performance had already been enough to astound its opponents. Zhu Quan, on the other side, saw this through his Food Spirit’s perspective and was slightly taken aback.
It blocked it?
A two-star Food Spirit blocked a full attack of a three-star Food Spirit?
Only if their combat power values didn’t vary significantly could this be explained.
This two-star Food Spirit’s flavor value, even if it hadn’t reached the maximum limit of two hundred, was likely not far from the limit, right?
“Squeak!”
The voice of another Food Spirit, Gu Li, echoed in his mind.
Zhu Quan followed the sound and quickly caught sight of Qin Lang’s other Food Spirit.
The seemingly insignificant one-star Food Spirit that had previously been tossed aside by Qin Lang’s two-star Food Spirit, under the residual effects of He Ke’s collision with the two-star Food Spirit, was rolling over and over, coincidentally flying near Gu Li.
From Gu Li’s voice, Zhu Quan could sense the other’s eagerness.
Clearly, Gu Li was very keen to eliminate this one-star Food Spirit to prove itself in the battle.
“Gu Li! Sand Wheel Traces!”
Zhu Quan issued instructions without hesitation.
“Squeak!!!”
Gu Li’s eyes flashed with excitement. A revolving wheel made of sand and gravel quickly coagulated behind it, then rapidly spun towards the seemingly not too intelligent, Spicy!
The sharp breaking the wind echoed on the field. The sand wheel, carrying a blurry trail of residual imagery, had almost instantly reached in front of Spicy! [Contestant Zhu Quan’s other Food Spirit launched a fierce attack on Qin Lang’s Food Spirit! Can Qin Lang’s one-star Food Spirit withstand this blow?] “Crack ”
The revolving wheel of sand and gravel, seemingly crashing into an invisible barrier before it hit Spicy, shattered in an instant.
“Cha cha!!!”
Spicy, who previously appeared dazed, had a burning fighting spirit in its eyes at this moment!
An invisible force erupted from behind it, breaking through the shattered sand in front of it. Spicy, like a cannonball leaving its muzzle, fiercely crashed into Gu Li!
[It’s Qin Lang’s two-star Food Spirit’s Thought Waves! It had been wrapped around the other Food Spirit the whole time, only to erupt suddenly at this moment! Perfect control!]
“Squeak?!”
Gu Li’s eyes widened, astonished by this sudden turn of events.
A pair of fangs shimmering with multicolored lights rapidly enlarged in its eyes.
The first bite… the second bite…
Post special training, Spicy instantly bit four or five tooth marks on Gu Li.
And, one of them was flashing a colorful light.
Bite mark, activated!
