Chapter 2746 Means of Victory

Kael expressed his guess.

"The analysis is pretty good." Doakes praised him, but the next second he changed the topic suddenly: "However, the post-analysis is still a step too slow. The battle is changing rapidly, and there is not so much time left for you to think slowly. So. , you are still far behind!”

After insulting Kael for a while, Doakes finally answered Kael's doubts.

"Your guess is correct. Vai's summoning of the stone pillar was indeed a small mistake. He did not consider that his shadow was already connected to the stone pillar, which gave the ghost a chance."

Doakes: "However, you are wrong. The ghost did not do anything in Vai's shadow 'many times'. He actually only did one thing."

Kael looked at Doakes, waiting for him to reveal the answer.

However, Doakes stopped talking at this time and looked at Angel.

Angel: "Mycelial matrix."

Doakes turned to Kael: "Yes, it's the mycelial matrix."

Kael: ...You didn’t know, so that’s why you looked at Master Super Dimension?

Kael's suspicious eyes made Doakes slightly uncomfortable. He turned his head, not looking directly into Kael's eyes, and coughed twice: "The name is actually not important, the important thing is to know its effect. "

"The mother mycelium can attract the divided mycelium. You have also seen why the bacterial barrier expands so quickly. Moreover, no matter where Vai goes, the bacterial barrier can fully cover him. It is because of his shadow. The mycelial matrix was placed.”

Vai wanted to avoid the germ barrier and move quickly around the arena. In fact, this behavior caused the germ barrier to expand rapidly.

Nowadays, the reason why Vai is lost in the germ barrier is because no matter where he goes, the germ barrier above his head cannot be shaken off. Even if there are indeed areas on the arena that are not covered by the germ barrier, even if Vai finds these areas, the germ barrier will be covered in advance. Therefore, as long as the mother body still exists in Vai's shadow, he will always be lost in the arena.

Doakes: "In addition to attracting hyphae, the mycelial matrix should also be controlled by ghosts."

Previously, Vai suddenly vomited blood at the top of the stone pillar, interrupting the cocoon of the earth. This should be the influence of the ghost shadow on Vai by relying on the mycelium matrix.

"However, the extent of the ghost's influence on the mycelial matrix should not be too deep. Otherwise, he would have won by relying on the mycelial matrix, instead of constantly harassing and attacking and fighting a war of attrition like now."

"Think about it, how could the germ barrier be completely controlled by a young apprentice like Guiying. This may be a method given to it by the official wizard."

Kael: "My lord, you mean that the evil woman and the gray merchant gave it to him?"

Doakes shook his head: "It can be seen from Ghost Shadow's proficiency in using bacterial barriers. It should not be the first time he has done this. Perhaps he has obtained the mycelium matrix before. As for who gave it to him, this is not the case. That’s for sure.”

Although Doakes said this, Kael was still very angry: "It's so shameless to engage in such a method."

When Kael was angry and dissatisfied, Doakes looked at him with strange eyes: "If my memory is not confused, you also have extraneous means, and your means seem to be even more..."

Doakes did not continue. After all, Kael belonged to their side, so he stopped talking.

Kael's eyes wandered, and the resonance in his nasal cavity hummed for a long time before he whispered softly: "How can this be the same?"

As for what's different? Of course Kael couldn't tell, otherwise he wouldn't have such weak confidence in speaking.

Doakes did not continue to talk about this topic, because to talk about it would be to undermine his own position.

"Now, it depends on whether Vai can find the mycelial matrix." Doakes paused, looked at the arena that was almost 90% covered by fog, and said: "However, even if the mycelial matrix is ​​found, I'm afraid It’s also very difficult.”

Kael: "Is there no chance at all?"

"I don't see any chance now." After Doakes finished speaking, he looked at the Black Earl specifically to see if the Black Earl would prepare any "asymmetric" means for Vai.

However, the Black Count was completely unresponsive as before. It's like I didn't hear their conversation.

Doakes muttered something doubtful in his mind, walked up to Angel, and asked, "What do you think?"

Angel: "There is still a chance."

After hearing Angel's words, Kael's eyes lit up and he looked at Angel expectantly. Doakes frowned: "How did you know there was a chance?"

Angel did not answer, but gave Doakes a look full of meaning.

Doakes was filled with doubts by this look, and when he thought about the Black Earl's silence, could it be that... there was really something he hadn't noticed, and that Vai still had the possibility of victory?

Thinking of this, Doakes stopped thinking about anything else and focused his attention on the arena again.

On the other side, Angel seemed to be watching the duel, but what he was thinking about was... If Kael faced the ghost and the remaining three apprentices, would there be a way to win directly?

Yes, Angel actually doesn't think Vai can win in his heart.

As Dox said, Wai is facing many difficulties now, and it is useless even if he finds the mycelium mother body. Now his only way is to ignore these factors that affect him and focus on dealing with the ghost. But in the fog, there are shadows everywhere. This is basically the home court of the ghost. It is very difficult for Wai to defeat the ghost at home.

The reason why Angel said to Dox "there is still a chance" is because the Black Earl did not express his opinion.

According to the Black Earl's previous habit, when Dox talked with Kael, he would definitely express some of his own opinions. But now he is completely silent. Although Angel did not dare to say that this must be related to Wai's victory, he still reserved his opinion.

Moreover, the sentence "there is still a chance" is actually ambiguous. Having a chance does not mean winning; and Angel did not say who the subject is. He can completely interpret it as that the apprentice battle still has a chance, not that Wai personally still has a chance.

Anyway, the right to interpret is his, and he did not say it for sure.

As for the meaningful look he gave Dox... Is it okay to pretend?

Besides, isn't this the foundation of a wizard?

When Bai Xiong was at Pat Manor before, Angel often saw him reading a book carefully. The name of the book was "Self-cultivation of a Wizard", which detailed the basic cultivation and qualities that a wizard should have. Although Angel thought it was more like "Self-cultivation of an Actor" or "The Birth of a Sorcerer", it must be said that after Bai Xiong studied the book and started to imitate it, he really had the flavor of a "prophetic wizard".

Angel was very contemptuous at the time, but later found that when you can't explain something or you can't give an answer, pretending to be profound can still get by.

This has been confirmed when he was a judge in the Rising Stars Competition. When the group of special judges like him were commenting on the players on the field and guessing the winner, Angel only needed to show a secretive expression to lightly bring the topic over, without any nonsense or much explanation.

It's the same now. Angel really can't explain where Wai has a chance, so he'll act.

Of course, this kind of "acting" can't be done often. Once someone has defined you, acting won't work anymore. Fortunately, Dox's definition of Angel is that he is bright on the surface but evil on the inside, and he is still a long way from pretending. So, he can still act.

Since he has no expectations for Wai, Angel naturally puts his hope of apprentice duel on Kael.

Angel is not like the Black Earl, who will test his descendants at this time.

After all, Kael is also the convener of this exploration. If he wants to go deeper, then Angel will naturally assist him with all his strength.

According to the current battle situation, once Wai loses the game, Kael is likely to go into battle one after another to deal with the four apprentices on the opposite side.

The most mysterious person on the opposite side should be the shepherd, the rhythm apprentice of the wind system. However, Angel is least worried about the shepherd, because Angel plans to let Speed ​​Spirit go on the field with Kael.

Of course, this kind of outside means is really a bit shameless in Dox's view.

How can a formal wizard lend his elemental partner to others as an extra-legal means? If you do this, then the evil woman and the gray merchant on the opposite side can also delegate their elemental partners to other apprentices? Although Dox misunderstood that Speed ​​Spirit was his elemental partner, other ideas are normal. Angel naturally couldn't do this openly. He was an alchemist, and the most he had were various alchemical materials and semi-finished products. He only needed to give Speed ​​Spirit a shell and then carve magic patterns to resist detection to hide its identity. Moreover, when the elemental partner fights, there is a spiritual connection between the master, but Speed ​​Spirit is not Angel's elemental partner, at most it is a subordinate. So it has autonomy, and it is not afraid of exposing its relationship with Angel in battle. With the assistance of Speed ​​Spirit, Kael should be able to defeat the shepherd. Among the remaining three, Pink Mo is easier to deal with. This is an apprentice of the Illusion Department. As a wizard of the Illusion Department, Angel has too many props to break the illusions. As long as Kael is not blinded by the illusion, he can defeat Powder Moss with his speed and even his own strength.

The magic elephant belongs to the bloodline wizard, which is a little troublesome. However, the bloodline wizard in the apprenticeship period is not completely unmanageable. Kael is an apprentice of the Space Department. Perhaps the things left by Li can help him.

Finally, it is the ghost.

Although Kael has said many times before that if he had played first, the situation might have been different. But Angel thinks that Kael is still too optimistic. The ghost can indeed stretch the line, but it may not be without the means of short-term burst.

In addition, the shadow system has the most powerful ability to avoid damage, and Kael does not actually have a clear advantage against it.

Relying on the extra-theoretical means given by Angel, Kael should still be able to win, but it may be very difficult.

Is there any way to make Kael win easily?

Angel thought about it and slowly looked at the shadow on the ground... Ermi.

He didn't intend to let Ermi play, but he suddenly thought of something. He seemed to have a shadow demon in his hand, which he had given to Ermi to train before. Maybe he could let the shadow demon play?

Just when Angel was about to communicate with Ermi to see if the shadow demon could be used, the voice of the wise master suddenly came to his ears.

It was not the message from the wise master, but the result of the duel that the wise master had announced.

Angel looked up subconsciously.

He had prepared for Wai's failure, but when he looked at the arena, he was shocked to find that there was only one person standing on the stage, and that was Wai!

And beside Wai, a huge ground spike pierced through the ghost's abdomen and stabbed him high.

Blood dripped from the ground spike. It proved that the ghost was the real body, not the shadow.

The winner of this duel... Wai? !

Angel's eyes flashed with a trace of astonishment, but he quickly restrained it.

He had been thinking about how Kael could win, and he didn't focus on Wai's battle. How did Wai win? How did he turn the disadvantage into an advantage?

Angel began to check his memory with doubts.

Although he was thinking about other things before, his eyes did not move away from the arena, so he could recall the shallow memories and see what happened before.

As the pictures flashed by like a montage, Angel finally saw the process of Wai's previous battle.

...

Time went back to three minutes ago.

Wai's rock skin was mottled, and almost half of the rock skin had cracks. Blood was constantly oozing out of the cracks.

At this time, almost no part of Wai's body was intact.

Moreover, the cracks on Wai's back even began to grow white flocs. These flocs were the larvae after the fungal barrier invaded.

These hyphae larvae used Wai's body as a cradle, blood and magic as nutrients, and in a short time, they began to go crazy.

If they were not blocked as soon as possible, these flocculent hyphae larvae would grow without restraint until Wai's flesh and blood were completely sucked dry.

The only consolation is that this fungus barrier is not like the fungi cultivated by the Mijinniang. It does not invade the mind space and the soul land, so even if the flesh and blood are lost, Wai still has a glimmer of life.

Wai's current condition is not good. Not only is he bleeding and growing fungi, he is also dizzy and stumbling.

He has completely stopped resisting the invasion of mycelium in the mist, but wanders in the mist like a zombie.

His behavior seems disordered, but from his repeated resistance, we can basically guess what he wants to do next.

Wai should have decided to go all out at this time, no longer looking for a safe zone, but directly attacking the ghost.

Just like Angel guessed, as long as he can seize an opportunity, he may be able to change the situation.

However, Wai's tactics can be understood by outsiders, and the ghosts in the battle can also understand them.

Therefore, the ghost no longer sneaks up at this time, but stays away from Wai.

The ghost came and went freely in the fog, and could sense Wai's position. If he didn't want Wai to find him, Wai had no way to do it.

Now, the ghost only needed to wait for the spread of the mycelium larvae to easily win.

As Wai went further and further away, the ghost moved further and further away, with no intention of getting closer.

However, at this moment, the ghost's eyes slightly condensed.

Wai, actually started taking drugs!

Before, the ghost attacked from time to time, and Wai had no time to use his money ability, but now that the ghost did not attack, Wai had the leisure time to take drugs.

The ghost watched Wai take drugs to recover blood while pulling and tearing off the flocs on his skin.

Although this could not prevent the expansion of the mycelium larvae, the effect of the potion Wai took was quite good. Even if it could not directly eliminate the mycelium larvae, it reached a perfect balance with the mycelium larvae.

When in a balanced state, Wai can basically reach the level of normal combat.

Although the cost of consumption is extremely high, Wai can still bear it.

Seeing Wai's condition recover, the ghost shadow felt a little irritated. However, he still suppressed his impulse and did not easily sneak attack again.

If it continues to drag on, the ghost shadow will not suffer any losses, but Wai's potion will eventually run out.

This is the ghost shadow's current idea, to keep his troops in place and wait for changes.

However, soon, the ghost shadow's idea changed.

Because of Wai, he walked into a dead end...
