Chapter 175 - Fireball Defeat
Chapter 175: Fireball Defeat
Ren Xue, the deputy captain of Xiayuan City, had undoubtedly failed. The Red Lotus Fire Demon Spider was seriously injured and was carried down for treatment.
The much-anticipated team leader, Wang Dalong, came into the field, and people looked forward to his collision with Su Bai. They also looked forward to whether Su Bai’s pet could once again launch the terrorist-like fireball, which had caused that atomic bomb explosion earlier.
“You’re very strong.” Wang Dalong glanced at Su Bai, summoned his silver contract book, and released a peak low-level commander, the huge Spirit God Elephant. It wore heavy golden armor, with three white jade tusks on each side of its long trunk. This was a rare pet of light and earth dual attributes, and just standing there with its ten-meters-tall height was enough to shock people.
“This is the last match of today’s first game. On one side is the Purgatory Tyrant, who unleashed an atomic-bomb-like fireball, and on the other is the giant Spirit God Elephant with rare light attribute. Let us look forward to the fierce offense of the Purgatory Tyrant, and the unparalleled defense of the Spirit God Elephant.”
Following the commentator’s announcement, the audience focused on the match.
“The Spirit God Elephant is known to have unparalleled defense. I don’t know if it can defend against such a powerful Purgatory Tyrant.”
“I think the Giant Spirit God Elephant should be fine. As long as the fireball does hit the center of its heart, it should have no problem. After all, its defense is extremely terrifying; it’s really scary.”
“On the contrary, I think that the Purgatory Tyrant will win. Blindly defending itself will only result in its loss. Su Bai wants to win the game by defeating all four!”
The audience had different opinions and continued their discussions, but it was no longer as one-sided as before. Many people were now supporting Su Bai, wanting to see him counterattack.
On the battlefield, Su Bai looked at the Giant Spirit God Elephant without much trepidation. He glanced at the dino and said, “End the battle as soon as possible; I believe in you.”
“Roar~” Watch and see~
With a loud roar, it rushed over with its golden Earth Hammer and struck with Death Collision.
The Giant Spirit God Elephant did not seem afraid of this attack. It lit up a golden shield on its body, which the dino slammed against, causing a loud bang. Its two-meter-tall body knocked the ten-meter-tall Giant Spirit God Elephant back by two meters, but the former did not cause injury to the latter.
Seeing that it was useless, the dino raised its claws and smashed the enlarged Earth Hammer over. This time, the shield broke into pieces, but it still did not cause any damage.
The dino scratched its head in embarrassment. The opponent’s skin was so thick; it made it feel quite embarrassed.
“Look, the Purgatory Tyrant rushed over and tried to injure the Giant Spirit God Elephant, but it received a massage, instead. The Giant Spirit God Elephant did not react at all, which shows its terrifying defense.”
The commentary passionately described the dino’s failed attempt.
“He’s really a massaging expert. Where’s the explosive skill from earlier? Bring it forth again!”
“Stop massaging it; let’s see something more stimulating!”
The audience felt a bit exasperated yet amused by the two-meter-tall Little Tyrant.
“Roar!” Unaffected by the dino’s attack, the Giant Spirit God Elephant waved its long trunk with laser jets and turned toward it.
This laser was so powerful that it dug a large pit several meters deep wherever it hit, which was comparable to ion cannons.
The dino quickly dodged while launching an attack, and a pale breath of blighted death erupted from it. The bleak breaths of all living things condensed on its body.
White light circulated on the small single horn above it, and a pale white light cocoon formed and turned into a streamer to attack the Giant Spirit God Elephant.
As soon as Wang Dalong felt the terrifying breath, he immediately let the Giant Spirit God Elephant condensed a light shield as defense, but in the blink of an eye, the light shield was broken by the Dead Cocoon. The power of death was too terrifying.
Looking at the fast approaching Dead Cocoon, the Giant Spirit God Elephant directly activated its guardian. A powerful golden shield enveloped itself right away. The Dead Cocoon appeared depressed when facing this shield, and although it still penetrated the latter, its power slowly faded away.
However, the dino was just getting started. With a roar, three blighted fireballs smashed over at the same time.
Wang Dalong was shocked to see this scene, but these fireballs flew too fast, almost instantaneously, and it was too late for his pet to resist.
Coupled with the restraint of the terrifying Dead Cocoon, he could only let the Giant Spirit God Elephant unfold its strongest spirit elephant shield in hopes of it withstanding the attack.
In a flash, the fireballs reached the Giant Spirit God Elephant. Like an atomic bomb, the endless flame burst forth and quickly swallowed everything. Accompanied by a fiery red mushroom cloud which was more terrifying than before, a deafening explosion sounded and then a shockwave spread.
The shield, which had just been repaired and strengthened a few moments ago, shattered again in an instant, rendering the audience speechless once more. There was more than one horrible atomic bomb-like fireball, and they could even be launched almost instantaneously. What kind of monster was this?
After the explosion, the dino quickly restored the scene, letting the smoke and dust fall to the ground. Soon, the scene cleared up again.
The audience looked up and saw that it was still standing on the spot, but the Giant Spirit God Elephant opposite it had already fallen down. Its huge golden shield had disappeared, and the withered breath of defeat exuded from it.
“I admit defeat! F*ck, you almost killed me!” Wang Dalong crawled out from behind the Giant Spirit God Elephant and shouted.
After the shield of the Giant Spirit God Elephant was broken, it was attacked by the terrifying flame and was also engulfed by the Dead Cocoon. Its vitality had constantly declined, and it would be a waste of time if it continued fighting.
“Su Bai wins. The first winner of the semifinals is Cannes’s team!” announced the referee loudly.
The audience returned to their senses and let out dumbfounded stunned cheers.
“F*ck, that expression was too terrifying. What kind of fireball technique was that? It’s really like a hacked move; it flew so fast and too fierce.”
“Stop talking; I’ll go back today and let my pet practice its Fireball skill. This move is too cool.”
“He’s really like a God of War. Not only did he win four fights in a row, he even only relied on a beginner Fireball skill to defeat all his opponents.”
The audience was extremely thrilled now. The explosion, the thrill of defeating an opponent in a flash… all of these were too exciting.
Rising against the trend, defeating four opponents all by himself, and doing so in seconds with the basic Fireball skill, everything was really inspirational and bizarre. It was simply terrifying.
Coupled with Su Bai’s handsome face, countless fans were really obtained in an instant.
On the battlefield, he asked the dino to close the Dead Cocoon and temporarily kept it in his contract book before returning to the lounge.
He also figured out that instead of letting the dino play slowly, its fireball-bombing was much better. Anyway, it was fine as long as it did not bomb the volcano.
In this way, others could not make fun of the real strength of it, and it would also maintain a sense of mystery, making it impossible for people to judge his pet.
“You big liar, you said that you just became an elite Pet Tamer. Forget about the Purgatory Tyrant being a mid-level commander, its Fireball skill is as powerful as a monarch monster’s unique trick. You’re such a cheat.” Li Xing glared at him as she complained.
“That’s right. We wouldn’t have worried so much if we had known that you’re so powerful. You’re really mean.” Li Hai and Wang Li were also very dissatisfied.
“Last time, it was the Vine Whip skill, now it’s Fireball. Su Bai, you really hacked it, right?”
They still deeply remembered the pain of being dominated by Purple Jade’s Vine Whip back in Ancheng.
“I just acquired the special skill out of luck; it’s not as strong as you think.” He shook his head.
The others were speechless and in disbelief. They just felt like every word that came out of his mouth was no different from a lie.
The most reassured were Yu Lingyue and Tang Long. Su Bai’s strength made them feel at ease. Winning the championship would be guaranteed if this continued.
Following the end of this match between the two teams, the second battle between Ancheng and Baihe City began.
However, people’s expectations for it were not so high anymore, and they were constantly searching for information about Su Bai on the Internet, wanting to know the source of the Fireball skill.
Soon, they found videos of his other contest participations in Cannes and realized that he was only seventeen years old but had become so strong within a year.
Moreover, he was also a junior trainer. The most terrifying thing was that his family did not seem to be wealthy. This made people even more curious about how he did it, but there was no more information on the Internet.
In addition to those who wanted to explore the secrets of him, more people became fans of his inspirational growth experience. They could not imagine how much effort it must have taken for him to grow up to this point in just one year.
In fact, Su Bai had spent almost all of this year in the monster wilderness.
“It seems that our win will be secured tomorrow. Ancheng’s captain has a mid-level commander fire pet, but it definitely can’t defeat Su Bai’s Purgatory Tyrant.”
After watching the battle between Cannes City and Baihe City, Li Xing and the others felt very happy.
“Su Bai, don’t worry; we won’t disappoint you like today.” Zhao Li promised.
“It’s okay; just do your best.” He waved his hand, turned to look at Yu Lingyue, and asked, “Can we go now?”
He wanted to leave early because he was feeling a little sleepy and was in a hurry to do so.
“Yes, everyone is hungry; let’s hurry back to eat.” Yu Lingyue nodded.
“Yeah, we have to retreat quickly, or else our team ace will be surrounded by fans.” Li Hai also nodded.
After leaving the stadium and eating, Su Bai returned to the hotel to rest. First, he let the pets out to feed them and then lay in bed to call Chen Ruoxue with the special phone.
After chatting for more than an hour, his girlfriend said apologetically, “I’m sorry. I can’t go back for your birthday tomorrow. I’ll definitely compensate you when I do return, so don’t be mad at me.”
“It’s okay. When you come back, we can celebrate our birthday together. The birthday presents I prepared for you have been kept in the backpack.” Su Bai responded gently. He had not celebrated Chen Ruoxue’s birthday with her previously because they had been too far apart as well.
The two talked for more than half an hour before reluctantly hanging up.
“Howl! (๑oั╰╯oั๑)” Ah Bai, what gift do you want tomorrow? I will buy it for you with my money.
The cub pounced on him and pressed him under it, staring at him with its big purple eyes.
“Anything will do; I will accept whatever you give me.” He glanced at it helplessly. Although it was a cat, was it not a little ashamed to keep pressing him under its body?
What about when it evolved into a Limitless Beauty?
Just when he pushed the cub down, the fox ran to his bed to sleep with him. Shaking his head, he took off his coat and lay down to sleep.
It was already the next morning in the blink of an eye. After breakfast, he and the others set off for Kaiyuan Stadium. There were more people watching the game today than yesterday.
The main thing was that a large group of ladies had come to cheer for Su Bai.
The momentum of the finals was still very large, and there would even be an exhibition match before the start of the game.
Eventually the game officially started amid the cheering of the crowd.
“Now, according to the result of the lottery, Ancheng’s team will first send a member to defend the ring, while Cannes will attack the ring,” the commentator announced loudly.
“The player they sent owns a high-level warlord Iron Ant. Go ahead, Wan Shui. Take care not to let the Iron Ant get close; its melee attack is too strong,” the coach ordered.
“I understand.” Wan Shui nodded and walked up.
With attribute restraint, Wan Shui’s Lava Salamander defeated his opponent with little effort.
However, he was quickly defeated by the next opponent. The first three rounds were completed, and both sides had wins back and forth.
That was until the other party sent their deputy captain. In front of the commander Water Spirit, Qian Shan quickly lost.
“The next one is Cannes’s ace, Su Bai. He is a godlike figure, who brought the team to the finals with only the aid of his Purgatory Tyrant. No one can handle its Fireball skill with that power output.
“But what’s interesting is that his opponent possesses the water elemental spirit of a commander monster. This is a very rare monster which has no shape and can be transformed into the sea. It is said to be the nemesis of fire monsters. Under the restraint of attributes, the Purgatory Tyrant may not be so useful.”
With the voice of the commentary, the audience could not help but wonder about the result of this game. It was well known that water overpowered fire, so fire pets were really not good for water pets.
“Go on. Let me see if your fireball is really so powerful!” The deputy captain of Ancheng shouted at Su Bai.
His pet Water Spirit turned into a water giant which stood in front of him on the left.
“Then you might have to be careful.”
Su Bai smiled faintly and released the dino.
In fact, to deal with the Water Spirit, the cub was the most suitable, but he was not bothered about it, since the dino was not a pure fire-attribute pet.
“Roar!”
As soon as the dino landed, the Water Spirit on the opposite side moved and attacked it with dozens of water cannons.
“Roar~”
Letting out an angry roar, the dino quickly condensed an earth shield to resist.
However, the opponent’s attack was too fierce, and it knocked it far away. Its body was injured by the surging wave of water.
“Roar!” D*mn it! I’m going to burn you to death!
The Little Tyrant broke forth with an infuriated roar and raised its claws to launch two blighted fireballs.
Water overpowered fire? it wanted to see how much water could overcome its fire.
It launched two more fireballs after the previous ones.
