Chapter 175 Insect Fighting Competition
three days later.
"Scyther, cross-cut!"
"Electromagnetic gun!"
In terms of speed, Foretus was naturally inferior to Scyther and was hit by the cross-shaped cutter.
However, it has extremely high physical defense, and its sharp scythe-like feet pose no threat to this creature.
Not only that.
When it is attacked, it will shoot out its iron armor to retaliate!
On the contrary, the shell fragments, like a bomb gun, repelled the Scyther!
"Crackling and popping!"
These iron shell fragments are quite powerful when they hit an opponent.
Scyther was also greeted by a black and yellow beam of electricity...
"boom!!!"
The flying mantis tried to dodge the attack with its speed, but found that its wings had been damaged and were now leaking.
Despite flapping its membranous wings with all its might, it only managed to fly a short distance.
"Eeea!!"
It was directly hit by the electromagnetic cannon and was immediately on the verge of death.
The electromagnetic cannon's residual power hadn't dissipated yet; Scyther was still paralyzed, his body crackling with electric arcs.
That's what makes electromagnetic railguns so terrifying.
Once it hits, it will paralyze the target 100%!
I thought this insect fighting competition would be very difficult, but it turned out to be surprisingly easy...
Ye Kai has now advanced to the round of 16.
Foretrus is quite an interesting elf.
There is still a lot of room for development.
"Go, Heracross!"
"Herak!!"
I never expected to run into this guy in the round of 16!
It seems we need to be careful.
After all, the insect fighting competition is 1V1.
Victory or defeat can be decided in an instant!
"Foretrus, Reflection Wall!"
"Swallow Returns!"
Most Bug-type Pokémon have the weakness of Flying-type Pokémon.
Many of them even fly at four times the speed of flight.
It's not surprising that the opponent would use this tactic, but unfortunately, it overthought it.
That's what makes steel so terrifying.
A Steel-type Pokémon can be carried to victory by any attribute.
Insect Steel is no exception!
A flash of purple light appeared on Foretold's body.
First, he used his superpowers to create a reflective barrier, and then layers upon layers of invisible barriers appeared in front of him...
Hercules swooped down from high above, its horn striking the creature with a scraping force.
Foretrus spun around, unleashing the shattered armor from his body to knock Heracross back!
The opposing trainer finally felt a bit of a challenge.
Ye Kai, this elf.
When hit, it will shoot out metal fragments like shotgun shells.
Not only that, it also carries a bumpy helmet with a pointed head...
The attacking side often kills 800 enemies but loses 1000 of its own!
"Use a sandstorm!"
Although slingshotting is no longer useful in 1v1, grinding down enemy health with sandstorms is still very satisfying.
Foretor is a steel-type monster and is unaffected by sandstorms.
Heracross is in a terrible situation.
"Use sword dance!"
Want to boost your attack and then unleash a barrage of attacks?
Ha ha.
"Use Iron Wall!"
You increase physical attack, I increase physical defense; you do your thing, I'll do mine!
"Continue the sword dance!"
"Keep the iron wall!"
"Use your maximum power in close combat!"
"lap!"
"Crackling...bang!!"
A loud noise drew everyone's attention.
"Holy crap, this looks really intense!"
"Hehe, if those two hadn't met, they probably would have made it to the top 8. It's just a pity that one of them will be eliminated..."
The two attacks collided, neither gaining the upper hand.
However, when contradictions clash, which is stronger, the spear or the shield?
Need I say more?
Heracross staggered back a few steps, his Fighting-type energy gradually depleted. The blasted-out Iron Shell and the recoil from the Bumpy Helmet brought him to the brink of death.
On Foretus's side, almost half of its iron armor was broken.
The impact was largely thanks to the reflective barrier; although it prevented the building from collapsing, the damage was still considerable.
And so, Ye Kai made it into the top 8.
He wasn't very interested in winning the insect fighting competition.
Having a top 8 player is enough to challenge the gym leader.
Although the champion of the competition can go to the Myriad Gu Secret Realm of the Maple Leaf Alliance for a free 2-day trip.
But that was a month after the victory.
Moreover...
He turned his gaze to the two men fighting not far away.
A volcano moth and a giant bee are engaged in a fierce battle.
Those two trainers weren't there to challenge the badges.
It's an official badge!
If your level is at least 15 levels higher than Ye Kai's Freytos, what's the point of fighting him?
And so, another day passed.
The next day.
Looking before me, I saw a dense tropical forest composed of giant spider webs and beehives.
This area is teeming with Bug-type Pokémon.
"Next up is the Dojo Challenge, featuring Liancheng's apprentice trainer Ye Kai against Dojo Master Xiaotian!"
"Since challengers have 8 badges, gym leaders will only send out 5 Pokémon."
"The match will continue until all of the other side's Pokémon are defeated!"
After the referee read out the rules, the match began.
"Foretos!"
"Duduli!"
Both sides released their spirits.
Goodness, the Guild Master started with Foretrus, is he going to lay down nails?
"Invisible Rock!"
"Acupressure!"
"Scatter water chestnuts!"
"Continue with the acupressure!"
That's incredibly sleazy!
Neither side made the first move; one side reinforced, while the other laid out spikes!
Reality is different from games; many moves cannot be simply summarized by turn-based combat.
This includes the elves' own ecological structure and abilities.
Take Foretus as an example.
If a human dares to punch this iron walnut, it will be riddled with holes like a slingshot!
This is only the passive situation this guy is in.
It doesn't even qualify as a skill or a special characteristic!
So that woman who accepted the Nightmare in exchange for Foretus.
There was a reason why she made the change so decisively.
This is practically a 360-degree "gun" with no blind spots!
In the Alliance's Adventurer's Guide, the danger level is on the same level as Double Gas.
Ye Kai had already guessed the general idea.
This Foretus is not that woman's spirit; she went there to dispose of stolen goods!
If it's truly your own spirit, what's there to be afraid of?
But that's none of his business.
The Poké Ball coating system in the League is not a panacea.
It can only protect you from honest people, not from scoundrels!
"Keep spreading the water chestnuts!"
"Acupressure!"
Xiaotian was also taken aback.
I didn't expect Ye Kai to be so stubborn.
How can you calmly enhance your defenses when faced with one layer of rock spikes and two layers of pitons?
Ye Kai had long been prepared for the method of scattering nails.
Then, we can release another Freytos high-speed spin attack.
If things really come to a bad end, I'll just take a big blast and trade one for one with you!
"Heh, looks like you have a plan? Use a poaching attack!"
"Dodge it, continue with the acupressure!"
Fortetoss was no match for the enhanced Doduri, and it easily dodged the attack.
The three-headed bird's body flashed with white light frequently, gradually growing stronger!
But Ye Kai's pressure is also increasing.
Keep in mind that Forrettos could replace it with a massive explosion at any time!
If Ye Kai were to be blown to near death by such a powerful attack, he would be the one who suffers the loss.
After all, the opponent had already laid three layers of pitons and one layer of rock spikes.
Even if I die fighting you, I'll have no regrets!
"Come back, Foretas!"
"Use a triple attack!"
Duduli failed to land its attack this time, and seeing its opponent being substituted, it could only continue to strengthen itself.
"Vulcan Moth!"
As expected, this spirit exists!
He just didn't expect that the owner would put this thing on his second pet.
But upon closer inspection, something doesn't make sense. How could a Volcano Moth appear at this level?!
But the elf truly appeared before his eyes, leaving him no choice but to believe it!
Could that rumor be true?
"The Volcano moth is born from a cocoon of blazing flames. It is depicted as the god of fire in ancient murals."
Looking at the description on my phone, and then at the nearly 2.5-meter-tall fire moth in front of me!
This guy is definitely not comparable to an ordinary Volcarona; if it gets any bigger, it will be a top-tier Pokémon!
"Triple attack!"
"Blow it away!"
Damn it, Ye Kai regretted giving the order as soon as he uttered it.
Not good!
