Chapter 125 String mode, plasma like rain!
"Oh?" Zhong Lin didn't expect that after seeing such an exaggerated effect, there would be someone who dared to come up and try it.
But he didn't think much about it. After all, the more people came up to fight, the better the deterrent effect would be today.
So without hesitation, he immediately smiled and said, "Welcome, welcome... May I ask where this comrade is from?"
"My name is Fang Pei, and I'm from the Ancient Capital Military District." Fang Pei twisted his wrist, a smile on his face. "Zhong Lin...excuse me, was that attack just now the limit of what you can achieve?"
Zhong Lin was stunned for a moment, then said, "Not really...what's wrong?"
"That's good, otherwise, there would be no suspense." Fang Pei slowly took out three soul cards from the card box, "So, shall we start?"
"Hmm?" Zhong Lin blinked.
This...are you sure you're not kidding?
You know, when they first came into contact with this deck, even they themselves were shocked. In their opinion, the ability to combine the entire deck into one sword has reached the pinnacle of power that a fourth-level soul card master can obtain, and there can be no one stronger than it.
Even the sword move just now that was not at its peak level was not something that an ordinary level 4 soul card master could handle!
You know, as long as they are prepared in advance, that level of attack is just a normal attack for them. Apart from a little higher mental pressure, there is no disadvantage at all!
But this comrade in front of me...
Are they truly confident, or are they playing psychological warfare?
Zhong Lin's eyes became a little serious.
Soldiers don't like these roundabout things. As for the comrades in front of him, he believes that there is indeed something to support his confidence. Otherwise, he doesn't think any comrades would fabricate such things that would be exposed as soon as they fought.
"Is that so? I understand." Zhong Lin gripped the giant sword with both hands, his eyes becoming serious. "Then... you better be careful. The Duel Shield may not be able to completely block the Dragon Rush Sword at full power."
"That's perfect. I'm also worried about whether this eggshell can withstand a beating." Fang Pei looked up and said, "Is the staff here? I need the highest standard duel shield."
Looking at Fang Pei's reaction, Zhong Lin was silent.
This... Arena No. 3 is for Soul Card Masters below level 5. The highest-level duel shield can withstand multiple attacks from top-level epics, and can even save the duelist's life from certain legendary attacks...
Due to the mental pressure, even if he used the Dragon Rush Sword with all his strength, he still needed to rely on time to fight against this kind of shield. But Fang Pei...is his deck really that strong?
Zhong Lin couldn't help but swallow his saliva. Looking at Fang Pei's expression which looked as if it was a matter of course from beginning to end, he suddenly felt a little insecure.
Is it a bluff or... But it's impossible. The Dragon Attack Sword is definitely the pinnacle of what a fourth-level soul card master can master. How could there be something stronger than this?
...It must be a bluff!
Zhong Lin took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
Seeing Fang Pei's reaction, everyone on the court couldn't help but start whispering.
They all knew how the Dragon Rush Sword performed. Was Fang Pei really confident that he could defeat this monster deck?
Two figures walked in from the gate. As soon as they entered, they heard Fang Pei's last words.
Wen Yang suddenly laughed: "Did I hear correctly... Two level 4 Soul Card Masters dueling, they need the highest level of shields? How long will this fight last?"
"...Maybe their decks are at the same level as ours." Hu Chen smiled, but obviously, he didn't believe it himself.
"How is that possible?" Wen Yang shook his head. "Forget it. We're just here for fun. Hu Chen, if things get awkward on the stage, don't laugh out loud. We're all from other military regions here. That wouldn't be nice."
"I'm not that stupid."
…
In the auditorium, somewhere.
A man and a woman were sitting here. The man in the lead had a strong build, his skin was an even layer of bronze, and his hair was only a thin layer that outlined the shape of his head.
At this moment, he looked thoughtful: "The highest standard duel shield... Little sister, do you think this is necessary?"
"They're definitely bluffing." A young girl sat next to him, her fingers rapidly swiping the terminal, a lollipop in her mouth. "Don't worry, big brother, we're not on the same track as them. Even if they fight hard, they can't threaten us~"
"I see." The man nodded. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he said, "By the way, where's that kid Afeng? I didn't see him last night."
"Uh..." The girl froze, her eyes shifting to the side. "Well... it seems my second brother was detained by the Yujiang police for setting up a stall illegally and getting into a fight..."
"What?" The man's eyes widened. "Why is he setting up a stall?"
"It seems that it's because Second Brother wants to gather intelligence for us?"
"What about fighting?"
"Emm, I don't know..."
"This brat!" The man covered his head in pain, "He's such a worry."
"That's right!" the girl responded quickly, "I'll teach him a lesson with you later!"
In fact, I felt a little relieved.
Phew… Second brother, I’m sorry, sorry! Although I came up with the idea of gathering intelligence, you know my temper… Please take the blame!
I'll find a way to make it up to you!
…
On the stage, two rays of light fell, and the duel shields on the two men suddenly became visibly thicker.
"Okay, that's about it." Fang Pei stretched his neck and gave Zhong Lin a healthy smile. "Well, I'm going to get started."
Bang!
The three soul cards in his hands shattered one after another. Suddenly, countless shadows of mechanical parts emerged from the void and were put on Fang Pei's body one by one. There were also four absolute pressure locks guarding an electronic energy-absorbing core fixed on Fang Pei's chest.
Click!
The sound of mechanical biting rang out densely, and when the shadows of the parts solidified, Fang Pei's left arm had been equipped with arm armor.
In this battle, he only planned to use his left and right arm armors to fight the enemy.
After all, Master Yu Cang told him not to reveal too much... and this was enough.
His right hand brushed over the electronic energy-absorbing core on his chest, and instantly, four wild crystals were inserted into the absolute pressure lock.
The extremely low initial consumption of the Mechanical and Creation Departments allows him to summon three Soul Cards using only one tube of Soul Energy.
"Come on." Fang Pei waved his hand, "Try to attack me."
…
"Hmm?" Wen Yang, who had already taken his seat, raised his eyebrows. "This is... the Department of Mechanical Engineering? There are still people studying Mechanical Engineering?"
The mechanical department has become a synonym for flashy and superficial in the circle of card makers.
Suddenly, Wen Yang's expression changed and he remembered what Yu Cang had said to him yesterday.
He quickly asked a soldier beside him, "Hey, brother, which military region is that soldier on the stage from?"
The warrior was staring intently at the ring. Upon hearing this, he didn't turn around and said directly, "They are from Shendu and Gudu... Wait a moment. If you have any questions, wait until they're done fighting."
They love watching this kind of fight!
"Oh, thank you." Wen Yang returned to his seat.
It really is an ancient capital!
"...I didn't expect that what Yu Cang told me yesterday was actually true." Wen Yang was a little speechless. "No, why is there really someone studying mechanics, and even getting it for the major armament upgrade!"
Even if your mechanical abilities are pretty good, what good can you do with such high energy consumption?
Now that this kind of deck has come out, he will feel that the value of the major armament changes has decreased!
Beside him, Hu Chen laughed and patted Wen Yang's shoulder vigorously.
"I'm dying of laughter... You spent a long time trying to get close to someone yesterday, but in the end, they didn't take it seriously at all. They told you the truth, but you didn't believe it and got mad at yourself for a long time... Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter. You're a clown, aren't you, Wen Yang?"
"Tsk." Wen Yang curled his lips. "I don't know who's in charge of the Ancient Capital this time. Who would have thought that they would enter the mechanical department... That's not right, Hu Chen. Even if this person in charge is stupid, it's impossible that everyone in the military region is stupid. What do you think? Could they have really made a breakthrough in the mechanical department..."
"Who knows." Hu Chen smiled. "Okay, just watch the fun. No matter how strong he is, can he be better than our achievements?"
"……Too."
…
On stage.
Zhong Lin's eyes narrowed.
Fang Pei's words made her feel a little unsure about him, but his attitude was a bit too contemptuous.
Never mind, no matter what deck you have, just take my sword first!
He raised the giant sword in his hand high, and heard a few dragon roars, and four real dragon shadows jumped on it!
As soon as he came up, Zhong Lin used the peak attack from the previous move. His face turned pale, but his eyes became more determined.
Taking a step forward, Zhong Lin swooped down, accompanied by a dragon roar. The giant sword, with a trail of light and shadow, slashed straight towards Fang Pei!
Facing this sword, Fang Pei's expression did not change.
"I've already said that if it's just this kind of attack, there's no suspense."
Click!
The soul card flipped open on the side of the left arm armor, and ten swarm magazines rushed out and connected to the ports one by one.
After a few days of improvement, Yu Cang and Gu Jieshuang successfully removed the self-limitation of the electronic energy-absorbing core. Now, even if the electronic energy-absorbing core is maintained, the warriors can use the soul card normally.
"Protocol Upgrade: Electronic Buffer Barrier!"
Fang Pei stretched out his hand, and electric light flashed on his arm armor. With a buzzing sound, a huge blue light curtain unfolded as Fang Pei pushed out his left hand!
Boom!
The giant sword came right after, and chopped down with such force that everyone present felt the ground tremble. The ground before the electronic buffer barrier on the field was cracked by the aftershock of the sword, but looking behind the barrier... nothing happened.
Fang Pei just leaned forward slightly to block the sword.
"What?" Zhong Lin was stunned. "How is this possible..."
He was not surprised that Fang Pei blocked the sword, after all, he had expected it. What surprised him was that Fang Pei blocked it so easily!
This is not right!
You look like you didn't even exert any effort!
Below the stage, Jin Zhaoshan suddenly stood up, his eyes wide open.
"This, this, this..." He stared at the stage, but one hand kept shaking the shoulder of the person next to him, "Old Bai, look at this, how come this person's defense is higher than our Monument Realm's defense!"
The main feature of their Monument Realm is to use the lowest mental pressure to produce the highest defense. If this is easily surpassed by others, how can they continue to play?
"...Calm down." The man known as Lao Bai gritted his teeth and pressed down on Jin Zhaoshan's hand. Judging from his expression, he was a little dizzy from being shaken. "Why are you panicking? The Monument Realm can only show its true strength in team battles. Can you really win if you try to challenge them in a one-on-one duel?"
"Ahh..." Jin Zhaoshan revealed a look of sudden realization, "That seems to be the case..."
"However, seeing how much Fang Pei boasted before the match, I thought it was a deck that excelled at attacking... but I didn't expect it to be defensive as well." Lao Bai pushed up his glasses. "From the previous battle, it seems the Dragon Rush Sword has no obvious endurance weaknesses. If it was just defensive, even if it was strong, it would only be a matter of time before Fang Pei was defeated."
"Huh?" Jin Zhaoshan scratched his head. "Old Bai, do you think... Fang Pei's deck has strong attack power as well?"
"How is that possible... You've taken a direct hit from Zhong Lin before, so you should know the level of that attack. Even the monument boundary you created with five creatures couldn't stop that attack, yet Fang Pei only used three Soul Cards to take it. Doesn't that speak volumes?"
Lao Bai patiently explained, "Zhaoshan, a system has its limits. It's often impossible to simultaneously integrate multiple prominent features within the same system. At least within the Level 4 range, it's difficult to do so. Furthermore, this is a major overhaul of the armaments. Specializing in one area is far more advantageous than trying to be comprehensive."
"Oh... okay then." Jin Zhaoshan sat back in his seat, blinked, and said nothing.
You talk a lot and you are right.
…
On stage
Zhong Lin frowned slightly, and when his attack failed, he quickly distanced himself.
Is it so easy to resist the four dragon souls... It seems that I have to show some real skills.
Zhong Lin took a deep breath, looked at the light curtain in front of him that covered a very wide area, and slowly raised the giant sword in his hand.
Suddenly, the four dragon souls that were swimming non-stop slowed down a little, and then as if they sensed something, they all lowered their bodies and heads, as if... welcoming the arrival of some existence.
hold head high! ! !
A very clear dragon roar rose from the sword and spread throughout the entire venue in an instant. Then, a real dragon phantom of the same size as the giant sword rose from under Zhong Lin's feet, circled upwards, and after circling around the giant sword, it rushed into the sword body!
In contrast, the four real dragon shadows guarding the surroundings also raised their heads at this moment and let out a shocking roar!
Zhong Lin clenched his teeth and his face turned visibly pale. At this time, his mental pressure had exceeded the limit, but his momentum had also reached its peak. He shouted softly and took a few steps forward. The giant sword seemed to weigh a thousand pounds at this moment and slashed down!
Looking at the power of this sword, Fang Pei raised his brows and was a little surprised.
This kind of attack power is really not weak.
But, there is still a little bit to go.
Fang Pei continued to hold up his left arm, his face still calm, but he silently inserted the core part of the electronic buffer barrier into the ground of the arena, secretly increasing the power supply to the reactive armor.
Bang!
Before the giant sword fell, an inexplicable shock wave had already hit the barrier, stirring up electronic ripples. For a moment, lightning flashed, and the next second, the sword had already fallen!
Boom! !
Everyone present felt their eardrums bulge, as if their hearts had stopped beating. Immediately afterwards, the ground in the arena shook again, but... only half of the ground was shaken.
Outside the electronic buffer barrier, the soil was surging like a raging sea, but inside, it was still as flat as before, with no visible impact, only a little dust was shaken into the air.
“Cough… What, what’s going on…” The huge recoil force caused Zhong Lin, who was holding the giant sword, to cough violently a few times. However, he couldn’t help but stare at the azure barrier in front of him, which only flashed with lightning for a moment but remained stable. “What the hell is this!”
"Have you reached your limit?" Fang Pei raised his head and smiled.
He had four wild crystals that were constantly converted into soul energy for support, so it could be said that he could easily take this blow. As long as the level of attack power was still below the epic level, the blue bar would be his health bar!
"Then...it's my turn."
Fang Pei stretched out his right hand to the side, and a soul card flipped open in front of him. Countless shadows of parts rushed out from it and combined into an identical mechanical arm on his right arm.
"What?" Zhong Lin's pupils shrank suddenly when he saw this, and an ominous premonition rose in his heart.
Click! Click!
Ten swarm magazines were connected to the port one by one.
"Protocol Upgrade: String Mode!"
Considering the mental pressure of a fourth-level soul card master, it is impossible to maintain two protocol upgrades at the same time.
So, a little skill is needed here.
First of all, Fang Pei needs to fully activate the electronic energy absorption core and absorb as much energy as possible from the wild crystal into the core before the mental pressure exceeds the limit.
Yu Cang later discovered through experiments that although the more soul energy the electronic energy-absorbing core accumulates, the more mental pressure it brings, it takes a certain amount of time for its mental pressure to increase. Although this time difference is not long, as long as it is trained and some special methods are mastered, it is enough to absorb most of the energy in ordinary wild crystals!
Although this process will be uncomfortable, what soldiers lack the least is willpower.
Originally, Fang Pei and his team were unable to maintain two protocol upgrades at the same time because this would put their mental stress beyond the limit. In this case, they were unable to absorb energy from the Wild Crystal, nor could they accept the soul energy from the Energy Absorption Tower, and therefore could not fight.
However, as long as you use this method to instantly accumulate soul energy in the energy-absorbing core to support the battle for a period of time, you can use two protocol upgrades to fight at the same time in a short period of time. For most battle situations, this is enough!
As for mental stress exceeding the limit? Things that can be solved through training are not considered problems!
Didn’t you see that Zhong Lin in front of him had already exceeded the limit of mental stress?
Buzz...sizzle!
The buzzing sound of the machine running at its limit was heard on the right arm armor, electric light kept flashing, and terrifying power began to gather on it.
String mode can greatly increase the range and power of the energy cannon by storing energy!
"Something's wrong!" Zhong Lin thought to himself that something was wrong.
We can't let him continue to accumulate strength!
He gritted his teeth and stopped hesitating. Despite the tremendous mental pressure, he swung his sword with all his might. Each sword strike landed on the electronic buffer barrier. Exaggerated shock waves accompanied by leaked electric arcs spread throughout the arena. For a moment, the terrifying roar resounded in everyone's ears, making them dare not breathe.
No, isn't this a bit exaggerated?
Is it necessary to make such a big scene when you two level 4 soul card masters are fighting?
As Zhong Lin's attacks became increasingly intense, the ground behind the electronic buffer barrier was no longer as flat as before. Ripples spread across it, and the electronic buffer barrier was actually moving slowly backwards.
At a certain moment——
Bang!
As the sword fell, a crack finally appeared in the azure light curtain. Zhong Lin was delighted and was about to take the opportunity to launch an attack, but suddenly he felt a bright light in front of his eyes.
I seemed to hear Fang Pei's voice in my ears.
"Zhong Lin, I've picked it up."
"What..." Zhong Lin looked at the light that was constantly expanding in front of his eyes, and felt the hairs all over his body stand up. His intuition told him that this attack was a bit too strong!
But at this moment, his old strength was exhausted and his new strength had not yet been generated. He could not dodge in time and could only barely hold the sword across his chest. The sword made a loud dragon roar, trying to block the attack.
Zhong Lin looked directly at the ball of light at close range, but he couldn't see it clearly. However, the audience in the audience could see it clearly. They saw a nearly pure white light lighting up in Fang Pei's palm, like a small sun that made it impossible to look directly at it. Countless equally dazzling electric lights originated from it, dancing wildly in the arena. Among them, the two thickest arcs stretched horizontally, like a longbow stretched to the extreme!
Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath.
The next second, the ball of light shot out and brushed against Zhong Lin's sword!
Bang!
As soon as the collision happened, Zhong Lin was unstoppably knocked away and fell heavily on the edge shield of the arena.
The ball of light turned into a beam of light, brushing against Zhong Lin's giant sword and hitting the arena shield diagonally above. It then immediately scattered and turned into a continuous flow of electric light that outlined the outline of the shield at the edge of the arena.
Suddenly, plasma rained down on the arena, dimming the audience seats.
“Cough, cough…”
Zhong Lin half-knelt on the ground, leaning on the giant sword and trying to get up, but with a crisp "bang", the giant sword in his hand turned into a piece of shadow fragments and dissipated into the air.
He lost his balance and almost fell to the ground.
"This..." Zhong Lin's eyes widened, "Directly disconnected? How is it possible..."
tread.
Fang Pei walked in front of Zhong Lin, and electric lights flashed on his two mechanical arms.
He brushed his hand across the electronic energy-absorbing core on his chest and inserted the new wild crystal into the lock of absolute pressure.
"Well, do you want to continue?"
Because Fang Pei changed the direction of the string-mode charged energy cannon in time, the duel shield on Zhong Lin's body had not been broken.
Zhong Lin looked at Fang Pei with a complicated expression, as he seemed to have not used his full strength.
"...No, I give up."
Hearing this, Fang Pei smiled.
"Thank you, Brother Zhong Lin."
…
In the audience.
Jin Zhaoshan turned his head silently, looked at the silent Lao Bai, and blinked.
"Old White, what did you say just now?"
