Chapter 182
There was an inexplicable "twisted feeling" about Lynette Nagu.
It seemed as if this young lady wanted to avenge her previous humiliation and defeat Jiang Yunu in a new match to prove that she, the eldest daughter of the Nagu family, was the most glorious freshman; on the other hand, she was hesitant, as if some factor was bothering and affecting her, making it impossible for her to stop Jiang Yunu directly on campus and demand a competitive match as she did last semester.
Maybe something happened to Lynette Nagu. Perhaps during the winter vacation, the young lady had some new psychological pressure that she couldn't tell outsiders.
But just like what Jiang Yunu and Linette Nagu thought when they completed the double selection of opponents: anyway, she and the eldest lady are still far from the threshold of "friends", and she has no obligation to even explore and care about the psychological condition of her opponent.
Jiang Yunu followed the procedures and did her own thing.
The senior who was said to play the "clearing and defending position" in the school team was her first opponent in the third round. The opponent had a name that was both easy to remember and difficult to remember correctly.
The senior’s surname is Ao, and his name is Aoliang.
Jiang Yunu's first reaction after hearing this was: "Orleans?"
Ao Liang said in a good temper: "Junior, why do you have a strange accent when you call my name?"
Only then did Jiang Yunu realize that the senior was "Ao Liang".
"...I'm so sorry." Jiang Yunu apologized immediately, "When I saw these two words together, I couldn't help but want to add '尔' in the middle."
Senior Ouliang didn't understand, but he remained good-tempered.
He gave a confused yet optimistic smile: "It's okay."
It seems that a food called "Orleans Grilled Wings" is no longer popular in this era...
Jiang Yunu thought about the disappearance of a delicious snack and sighed deeply in his heart.
This name reminds people of a senior who loves to eat and has an easy-going and friendly personality.
However, after another week, when the competition system notified the official start of the third round, Jiang Yunu and Ao Liang both stood on the battle stage, and Jiang Yunu immediately realized a truth -
The more friendly and approachable someone appears, the more likely their fighting style is the opposite!
Aoliang is worthy of being responsible for clearing the rearguard. His ability is a range attack ability that is very suitable for sweeping.
The elemental powers in this world are divided into four types: fire, wind, water and earth. However, even among those who possess the same elemental powers, there will be subtle differences in their talents.
Some people are better at operating various auxiliary equipment and using their supernatural powers to maintain the operation of the devices; some are better at healing and combing, and are suitable to be therapists who comb out energy blockages; and some people's supernatural talents are lit up in forging and refining, and they can easily become elemental weapon forgers... These are all the knowledge that Jiang Yunu learned at the Enge Primary Supernatural School.
It was only after he entered the Advanced School of Supernatural Powers that Jiang Yunu realized that combat-related supernatural powers also had subdivisions.
Senior Jin Qing is good at detection and perception, and the senior who invited her to play the last game of the third round is good at operating wartime equipment.
Aoliang is responsible for clearing out the remaining enemies, and his specialty is large-scale attacks.
Moreover, while he is good at group attacks, his perception is also not low.
"You have to be able to detect the target first before you can know how many 'tails' are left here that have not been cleared." Senior Aoliang smiled slightly on the battle stage. His smile was exactly the same as Jin Qing's when Jiang Yunu demonstrated his supernatural power of "invisibility" that day.
Jiang Yunu quickly ducked to avoid the large light net that swept over her. It was a large net woven by multiple beams of supernatural light, smashing down towards a designated area and capable of quickly hitting all targets in the area.
Jiang Yunu rarely failed to dodge, and she found that ordinary sidesteps could not escape the range of the net - it was laid out to the same width as the fighting stage, and the height could be raised or lowered according to the operator's will. It was impossible to slip out completely from under the net.
Depending on the direction in which the "target" attempts to move out of the range of the net, Aoliang will modify the energy distribution on the entire net, allowing the net to automatically extend in the direction in which the "target" is trying to move.
Every inch a person moves, the net stretches an inch.
Jiang Yunu realized that simply dodging was futile. This seemed to be an attack that was difficult to avoid no matter what. So she stopped moving in vain and showed her special ability.
The green supernatural light quickly gathered in Jiang Yunu's hand, and it turned into a shield, helping her to withstand the overwhelming attack of the light net!
"Buzz—"
It was a strange humming sound.
It wasn't like the clanging sound of metal colliding, nor was it like the electric-like crackling sound when Jin Qing's supernatural powers came into contact with each other before.
Jiang Yunu couldn't describe this wonderful frequency for a moment.
Ao Liang took the initiative to tell her from the other side: "This is the sound of the single-target ability and the area-of-effect ability colliding and wrestling with each other."
The senior was ruthless enough, but his tone was also very friendly.
He taught Jiang Yunu using a more ferocious fighting style than Jin Qing.
Aoliang approved of Jiang Yunu's counterattack.
"Area-of-effect attacks are difficult to escape directly. If you find yourself unable to dodge in time, it's a good idea to confront them head-on." Aoliang said, "Your abilities are also primarily offensive. When two offensive players face off, you can sometimes use your abilities to directly break the opponent's abilities."
The surface of the supernatural shield in Jiang Yunu's hand shrank rapidly, from a surface to a point, and then began to become sharp from the top of the "point".
A makeshift "spear" appeared out of thin air in her hand.
The spear was pointed directly at the supernatural net that Orliang had laid above her, and she stabbed it.
A hole quickly appeared on Aoliang's supernatural power net, and the edge showed traces of Jiang Yunu's green supernatural power constantly eroding it.
Jiang Yunu's shorter stature compared to her peers turned out to be her strength at this moment, allowing her to quickly pass through the cave. She then tightened her waist and abdomen in mid-air, and pushed the spear shaft into the ground, allowing her to jump out of the "net" area.
"Beautiful," O'Brien complimented at the right moment.
Because the area covered by his range ability was very large, it almost occupied most of the battle stage from the center line to the half area where Jiang Yunu was originally located. When Jiang Yunu jumped out of the coverage range of this attack, it meant that the white-haired girl almost jumped in front of Aoliang and was very close to him.
But just like Senior Jin Qing before him, Senior Ouliang was not in a hurry either.
"You have found a way to counter area attacks with attacks, but if the opponent's superpowers are obviously stronger than yours, your defense and breakout may not be effective." Ao Liang looked at Jiang Yunu who was close in front of him. The superpower spear that was emitting a bright green light had swept over with a strong wind, and the tip of the spear stopped on the side of his cheek.
Jiang Yunu understood that today was also a teaching game, so she was not in a hurry to pursue victory.
She asked, "Senior, is there anything else you want to teach me?"
"Yes." Ouliang smiled.
The blue supernatural power belonging to Aoliang suddenly attacked from behind Jiang Yunu.
This time, this "superpower net" changed its form - it stood upright on the battle stage, moving directly from the other end of the battle stage to this end!
Jiang Yunu looked at the vertically moving supernatural net and was reminded of the "fire wall" that Song Yang had used in the second round of the competition.
"If the opponent launches a more powerful area attack and your 'breakout tool' is disarmed, what will you do?"
Aoliang's superpowers were surprisingly powerful, and the vertical superpower net moving from the front was not all he had.
Jiang Yunu suddenly felt the burning sensation. She did not let go immediately, but instead clenched the weapon in her hand, which was transformed by her own supernatural power, and looked down to check -
A blue energy had already entangled the bottom of her spear.
The blue power was like a thin layer of water film, quickly spreading from the bottom to the entire spear.
A mysterious "water film" blocked Jiang Yunu's fingers and palm from her weapon.
At first, Jiang Yunu thought it was just a simple surrender.
Is this how Oliang tries to steal her weapon without anyone noticing?
No, that's not right!
Jiang Yunu's thoughts were off for only a second, and then she suddenly realized that this was not simply about taking away the weapon!
The "water film" not only wrapped around the spear, but also controlled the part of Jiang Yunu's supernatural power released, cutting off the connection between her energy and herself, making it temporarily impossible for her to use them freely.
This move of Orliang essentially gives the target opponent a continuous debuff effect of "weakening".
Aoliang was waiting for Jiang Yunu's reaction after discovering the truth, and his eyes never left the white-haired girl's face.
For those young freshmen and the superpower warriors who had some of their superpowers "confiscated" for the first time on the battlefield, the feeling of being suppressed for the first time was terrible, as if their originally flexible limbs suddenly lost a finger or even a part of their arm.
However, Jiang Yunu just blinked.
"Ah," said the little white-haired girl, "so that's how it is."
Immediately afterwards, under the astonished gaze of Ao Liangdai, this part of the supernatural power that was temporarily wrapped by the "water film" seemed to be directly abandoned by Jiang Yunu.
A supernatural power that could be used to create physical weapons should naturally consume a significant amount of energy within the energy core. Not to mention that Jiang Yunu was a renowned "fine-tuner." Ao Liang had watched her second round match and knew that she was using thin lines of supernatural power to counter the opponent's more aggressive supernatural power calls.
Such a meticulous little miser, doesn't he feel sorry for wasting such a large amount of superpowers?
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong.
But Oliang could only sense that something was wrong.
The battlefield was changing rapidly, and there was no time for him to re-evaluate and adjust his tactics.
Jiang Yunu didn't even look at the part of her superpower that was "taken away" and finally let go of the spear.
Her hands were empty, her eyes fixed on the vertically moving supernatural net.
"Senior, do you know how high a human body can jump without using supernatural powers?"
Jiang Yunu jumped over the supernatural net with his legs like a light bird.
When these words reached Aoliang's ears, she was already on the other side of the supernatural network.
Ao Liang wanted to use the "water film" to block part of her superpowers. Jiang Yunu guessed that this blockade would also consume the opponent's energy, so she simply gave up that part of her superpowers and took advantage of the situation.
The existence of the "water film" restrained Aoliang's supernatural power. This vertically moving water net could no longer automatically rise up when she tried to jump over it as before.
The bet was right.
