Chapter 887 Gods' Game: Card Swapping 131
After her enlightenment, Yu Xunge's combat power was unleashed by at least 80%. Since she could use her body as a blade to cut through the sea, she could naturally use her body as a blade to use [Blood Drinking - Howling] on other apprentices.
She learned this skill during her break from school in the second semester of third grade, and after more than half a year, she has already reached the SSS level.
【Bloodthirst - Howl】(SSS): With each attack, there is a 50% chance to heal you by absorbing 2% of the target's health; when you trigger a critical hit, the enemy's blood and howl will briefly enchant your weapon for 5 minutes. The enchantment effect is random and can stack up to 100 different enchantment effects.
This directly solves her current problem of not having a powerful healing skill.
But she wasn't in a hurry to hunt down other apprentices. For her, the most important thing right now was to get her skills and items back as quickly as possible, otherwise she wouldn't feel at ease.
Whether it's the potential for surprise attacks and changes in the game, or the possibility of other apprentices launching an attack at any time, she desperately wants to regain her key skills.
As Yu Xunge became more and more familiar with the underwater map, he would also swim around the port, prioritizing the fish for the most important bait.
She prioritizes S-rank and above skills, and will only eat low-rank skills if she can't find any S-rank or above skills as bait at the port or coast.
She won't give up on the individual competition until the very last second of the game, but she also has to prepare for the possibility of losing half of her unrecovered skills by quitting the game.
The previous polar bear was like an accident. After Yu Xunge regained the [Hide and Seek] skill, she became even more efficient at taking the bait!
With the combined boosts of the "Hide and Seek" ability and the Blue Spotted ability, Yu Xunge's process of eating fish bait couldn't be smoother.
But her vigilance and worry grew stronger.
Too easy...
Are we just going to keep playing like this? Like an individual competition for kids playing house?
The cost of losing and withdrawing from the competition is too high. So far, none of the apprentices have launched a real attack, for fear that if they make a slight mistake once the battle starts, they will be defeated.
Death is not scary, but losing half of the skills that have not yet been recovered is worse than death.
Whether it was the apprentices who had previously caused her trouble, or Yu Xunge's attempts to interfere with Queque, everyone stopped at the level of interference, fearing that they might push her too far.
All the apprentices were very restrained and did not want to engage in a life-or-death struggle at this stage, as none of them could afford the loss.
But would the gods agree to this?
She thought of the red pillar of light that shot into the sky after the statue was erected in the previous Demon City competition, and the treasure coordinates that everyone could see after the map was collected in this God's Game team competition...
The game of the gods is not so peaceful; it likes to push people forward.
At 10 o'clock, just as Yu Xunge retrieved the [711th School Rule], a voice rang out from the sea.
[A Gift from a Mysterious Angler – The Time to Bait]
[A mysterious angler will begin baiting the whirlpool area in 5 minutes, and a large amount of bait will be randomly released. Apprentices who wish to participate in the free-for-all should enter the whirlpool area within 5 minutes.]
The baiting period will last for 30 minutes. During this time, all bait in the special game area will be unclaimed bait and can be eaten freely, but each apprentice can only eat a maximum of 10 baits.
If a participant is killed in the free-for-all game, they will be immediately eliminated from the game, and any unclaimed bait consumed during this time will be returned to the whirlpool area.
Fish caught by anglers during the baiting period will lose all the bait they have eaten since the start of the game.
When the free-for-all ends, any uneaten bait will return to the mysterious angler.
[Warning: Some baits are randomly attached to invisible hooks. These hooks cannot be detected by any skills and are unaffected by any skills.]
Yu Xunge flicked her fishtail and scanned the area, spotting the whirlpool. She immediately rushed over!
This game isn't a gift at all; it's a complete conspiracy.
While one can freely consume bait, it also means having to fight with other apprentices, because no one can guarantee whether their top-tier skills are in the whirlpool zone or have been consumed by other apprentices.
If a crucial skill falls into the hands of another apprentice, they must be killed!
Not to mention the risk of being hooked by an invisible fishing hook.
Ke Yu Xun Ge had no choice but to go; she hadn't yet retrieved her [Cat's Ideal], [I Want to Improve So Much], [Reversal Moment], [Mysterious Power], [The Sin of Pride], [Bedtime Fairy Tale], and so many other important skills...
What if it's in the baiting area...?
She dared not not go!
Many of her apprentices shared the same thoughts; each had their own secrets and things they could never lose.
The once calm sea suddenly became lively, with all kinds of fish rushing towards the very obvious whirlpool on the seabed as if in a great migration.
However, a small number of fish did not move.
At this point, it depends on how everyone chooses to proceed.
Yu Xunge was among the first group of apprentices to arrive at the whirlpool area. He rushed through the swirling water to reach the inside of the waterspout. The water here was unusually calm and unusually bright, as if sunlight was shining through the sea and illuminating this area.
Before the bait was even dropped, she and several other fish exchanged wary glances.
As more fish rushed into the waterspout, the area began to expand.
It's as if they're making sure to leave enough space for everyone to fight, showing utmost respect for the player's gaming experience.
There were many Kiefer Angelfish here, and Yu Xunge couldn't tell which was Maple Sugar Mist Blade and which was Fat Goose Motorbike, nor did she intend to try to distinguish them.
Just like what Maple Syrup said not long ago, "Don't touch me, I'm Maple Syrup!" Did she believe it at the time?
It doesn't matter; she needed a fish at that time, so they kidnapped her.
It doesn't matter whether she has friends here or not.
They were not weaklings who needed her mercy or sympathy.
If you are afraid of death, afraid of losing everything and becoming worthless, then you should not step into this sea where the strong fight for supremacy.
Similarly, she wouldn't think about or ask whether any of the fish that attacked her were her friends.
As a ship's horn sounded, a large number of bubble baits fell into the water.
Among these bubbles, a small portion glowed like tiny light bulbs, while the rest were ordinary bubbles. All the apprentices instantly realized that the glowing bubbles were their own bait.
What is alarming and worrying is that when the distance to ordinary bubbles is reduced to half a meter, people can see the information in these ordinary bubbles.
Even though the skill level and detailed information are not visible, this is enough to be fatal...
Here, the signature skills and top-tier skills of any apprentice with a reputation are no secret; you can roughly guess them just by looking at the skill names!
Ignoring the bait offered by other players, Yu Xunge headed straight for her own bubble; she wanted to get hers back first!
【Bone Removal & Sun Chasing】!
She used this top-notch skill, invented daily, as a travel skill—[Express·Song Search].
She was like a sharp blade piercing the sea, charging straight towards her target regardless of who was in front of her.
The very first bait filled her with both fear and joy—the sin of pride!
She swallowed it in one gulp...
Then it got caught on the invisible fishing hook!
Is Lucky 6 really that powerful?!
