Chapter 835 The Gods' Game: Card Swapping 79
Thinking can take place during battle, and Yu Xunge did not stop.
She even frequently switched weapons, using the old dagger for probing and initial attacks, and then switching to the better dagger that Zhu Ri later gave her once she discovered a fatal weakness.
Although she couldn't use her divinely bestowed healing skills because she lacked spellcasting materials, the ordinary healing skills she learned at school were sufficient if she used them sparingly.
Unfortunately, the worms' fatal weaknesses are completely unpredictable. The first Cherno worm's weakness was its eyes, while the second's was a piece of unremarkable fat on its body...
She could only try little by little, finding weaknesses by observing the other person's reactions.
This method is incredibly stupid.
She tried using area-of-effect attacks to target the areas the enemy most wanted to protect, but whenever she used an area-of-effect attack, the Cherno Worm would immediately burrow underground.
There's no way to cheat or overpower someone with superior skills; the only way to win is to find that weakness that's about the size of a coin.
And this is only possible with the condition that you lose 2% of your health with each attack.
By 4 p.m., Yu Xunge had only killed 15.
As she walked toward a Cherno worm again, the dagger in her hand was snatched away by a cold hand.
She didn't notice anyone approaching at all!
Before Yu Xunge could retaliate, she heard a familiar voice: "I will only demonstrate once."
The tall figure walked in front of her, and the hail that was hitting her instantly lessened by more than half.
Yu Xunge happily followed, saying, "I thought I was going to have to spend the night here."
"You think you can surpass me with this?"
Everyone needs to have dreams.
“…Watch closely!”
Yu Xunge witnessed an artistic battle once again, with Zhu Ri seemingly able to anticipate and detect the landing point of the Cherno Worm's attacks every time.
"Don't look at its eyes or where its mouthparts land; that's just to mislead you. What you need to look at is the direction of force transmission when its body wriggles. You can learn this technique—combat deception."
"Didn't you learn combat techniques from that polar bear? Why aren't you using them?"
As she spoke, Zhu Ri kicked the Cherno Worm into the air, then chased after it with a kick, using her kicks to keep the Cherno Worm from falling.
"Did you see the direction it would desperately try to avoid even in weightlessness?"
"So... what should you use?"
The answer, of course, is to remove the bones!
"The enemy's trembling and fear will tell you how close or far your blade tip is from its weak point, and you must adjust your attack direction faster than ever before."
The elf tumbled gracefully in the air, her silver dagger slicing through the twilight, accompanied by a gush of blood, as she and the already dead Cherokee worm landed one after the other.
This is pure violent aesthetics.
Standing in front of her, Zhu Ri Ni Guang handed her the dagger: "Go, little Zhu Ri."
Yu Xunge grinned, took the dagger, and said, "Will you come to pick me up at 9 o'clock to go home?"
Zhu Ri had already passed her and was walking in the direction that the Starry Sky Dragon had flown away from before: "I will come when you finish your course."
However, at 9 o'clock, Yu Xunge was met with wails of agony.
Seeing the apprentice's searching gaze, he wailed, "I sent her back. I thought you came here to learn how to fight, not to be spoiled and turned into a piece of trash by her soft heart?"
Yu Xunge immediately suppressed her disappointment: "Of course!"
Although she didn't really feel that Zhu Ri had ever softened, this wasn't the time to talk back.
Because the wailing at this moment was completely different from how it used to be when we ate together at the Sun's house.
Although Wailing still had a smile on her face, there was not much warmth in the smile, and it was even a little cold, which made her feel extremely dangerous.
Her animal instincts told her that it was best not to be willful at this time.
"You want to get a perfect 7-ball hand for four consecutive years?"
"Um."
"You want Astrana to remember the Hour of the Sun?"
"That's right, I want to make 'Chasing the Sun' a status equal to 'Heavenly Hu Haoqi'!"
"Very well, remember your words. You have no chance to take it back."
Yu Xunge looked at the wailing man with suspicion and wariness: "Will you spare my life?"
Wailing: "..."
This time, her wailing turned into a genuine laugh. She said, "Yes."
"That's enough."
…
Yu Xunge once thought that Zhu Ri was being too radical by throwing her, who had just learned to use a dagger, into the arena.
Compared to the wailing, the daily approach is still too conservative.
The training location for the second day was still the ice field, but the Wailing Blade completely sealed her healing skills and flight ability.
[Deathmatch]: Reduces the cooldown of all skills by 50%, at the cost of being unable to be healed; Duration: 30 minutes.
[No Flight]: Your wings and flight skills are unusable; Duration: 6 hours.
And she had to fight five Cherokee worms at the same time while in this state.
I don't know how Wailing managed to do it, but the Cherno worms, who said they wouldn't care about the lives of their own kind, attacked her all at once like madmen.
The only thing that reassured her was that Wailing stood by and watched, promising to help when her health dropped to 1%.
Yu Xunge didn't really believe it. It was a very simple math problem. The Cherokee worm only took away 2% of health with each attack. It couldn't possibly take away 1%! Are you kidding me?!
Anyway, if she really drops to the danger line, she will use her [mysterious power] even if she is driven out by Wailing. She trusts Sun Chaser, but she doesn't have much affection or trust for Wailing.
Fortunately, the situation wasn't that bad. [Death Strike] only lasts for 30 minutes. Even if Wailing Wail replenishes her with a new [Death Strike], it will still give her 1 minute to fully heal herself.
In other words, with each round lasting 30 minutes, she must ensure that she does not find herself in dire straits within half an hour.
Only after becoming familiar with this mode did she truly focus on the battle at hand.
But whenever she makes even the slightest progress, the wailing attracts a new Cherokee worm.
She seemed to be able to see through her limits at a glance, keeping her in a state where she had to fight with all her might just to survive.
"You did well in this year's God Games, but it's far from enough, because you won when no one paid attention to you. In future God Games, it will be more and more difficult for you to win."
"I don't mean to belittle you or attack you; I'm just stating a fact."
"After Zhu Ri unlocked the Heavenly Hand Seven in the fourth grade, in the subsequent God Games, no matter what school the contestants were from, if they met alone, they would immediately quit the game. However, if there were other apprentices nearby, all the apprentices would immediately put aside their grudges and form an alliance, with their primary task being to eliminate her."
"Because as long as the sun rises, no one has any hope of winning."
"Her daily routine was the darkest hour for a generation."
“Since she was able to get the Heavenly Hand Seven for three consecutive years…” Perhaps because dealing with the battle at hand had already exhausted all of Yu Xunge’s mind, she stopped worrying about anything else and asked a question that had puzzled her for a long time, “Why did Huang Jin end up getting the Heavenly Hand Seven?”
