81. Ability Advancement
After the two returned to the dormitory, Li Qiuwen found Ling Long and briefly inquired about his situation, and only after learning that Ling Long was okay did he leave with confidence.
Holding the black stone that had been hidden in his arms in his hand, Ling Long decided that it would be safer to hand over this stone to Xu Mengyao.
Unlike the competition in the Ability Fighting Gym, the Supernova League does not have a point protection system, and it is inevitable that he will be injured and bleed at that time, in case he accidentally activates the black stone and causes himself to become a flame demon, then Ling Long will really become a living specimen that the five cities are vying to study.
Xu Mengyao took the black stone and took a closer look, it didn't seem to be anything special except that it was cold to the touch.
"When the time comes, try to cover the lines of the ability spell seal, if you are really recognized by others, the consequences will be unimaginable. Xu Mengyao instructed Ling Long and put away the black stone at the same time.
Not long after, Tang Dou also came to the dormitory and knocked on the door, seeing her slightly haggard appearance, Ling Long felt very guilty in her heart - if she hadn't been careless and discovered by the masked woman, she wouldn't have spent a lot of energy to save herself.
"Sister Tang Dou, I have already rejected Coach Li's invitation...... I really can't go to war now. Xu Mengyao smiled and pulled Tang Dou to sit beside her, "You can do it, we all believe in you!"
"Thank you......" Tang Dou smiled shyly and looked at Ling Long, "How is your injury?" I see you didn't go to train in the afternoon......
"It's all right!" Ling Long smirked twice, "Captain, there is one more thing I have to tell you in advance, that is, I may not be able to participate in the next two days of intensive training." โ
"What's wrong?" Xu Mengyao and Tang Dou looked at Ling Long suspiciously at the same time.
"In the past few days, I have found that my ability still has some flaws, and I want to perfect it before the tournament, so as not to fall off the chain when I get into the arena when I get there......"
Tang Dou nodded in understanding, then got up to say goodbye and prepare to leave.
Sending Tang Dou away, Xu Mengyao looked at Ling Long coldly: "What flaws exist, let's hear about it." โ
Seeing that Xu Mengyao was resentful because of his concealment, Ling Long didn't hide it, and told all his thoughts about wanting to completely eliminate the ability backlash.
"You're really looking for death...... Do you know that there are indeed examples in history where the supernatural backlash directly crushed the master's body?" Xu Mengyao was taken aback by his bold idea.
"It's okay...... At least my ability backlash isn't lethal, I've experimented a few times during the day, don't worry. โ
glanced at him, Xu Mengyao fell directly on the bed: "Whatever you want!"
......
In the next two days, Ling Long began to continue to practice his plan, as soon as the ability of his left eye was restored, he made sure that he would release it as soon as possible, and never waste a penny of time.
The hard work paid off, and after two days of frenzied training, Ling Long finally completely overcame the weakness caused by the ability backlash. And the effect of this ability is much the same as he had guessedโit can freeze for one second every three minutes.
Although it was not as powerful as the effect of continuously releasing abilities as he imagined, being able to freely cast abilities and not be afraid of backlash was already a qualitative enhancement for Ling Long.
......
In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the start of the league, Li Qiuwen gathered everyone to the gate of the Hurricane Academy early in the morning, and as a small floating ball in the sky slowly fell, Ling Long knew that the main game was finally about to start!
Sitting inside the floating ball, Xu Mengyao looked curiously at the advanced technology around her, like a curious baby. And Chu Xiao Luowei and other contestants did not have such a good mood as her, everyone's faces were solemn, and they seemed to be under a lot of psychological pressure.
"I'll repeat the rules and precautions of the game to you again......" Li Qiuwen's voice came slowly through the surround sound around the floating ball, "This supernova league adopts a team ring match, each game is limited to 60 minutes, and if two players on one side surrender or lose their ability to fight, the opposing camp wins......"
Li Qiuwen had told them these rules countless times before, and repeating them at this moment directly caused most of the players to cover their ears directly.
I don't know how long it flew, but the float finally landed smoothly.
Looking at the deserted suburbs, a big question mark floated in Ling Long's heart: "This is the venue?"
"I'll go!
"What the hell is this place, it's not as beautiful as my house......"
"Aren't we supernovas, that's all?"
Not only was the players scrambling to complain here, but even Li Qiuwen had led the team to participate in the league for so many years, and it was the first time to see such a dirty and messy venue.
With a light cough, Li Qiuwen pushed his glasses: "Everyone be quiet first!"
Although the competition environment was much worse than expected, Li Qiuwen still felt that he should stabilize the army's heart first, and then took out a large package from the floating ball, which contained twelve small boxes.
"This is the latest combat-type anomaly watch developed by our Hurricane City Science and Technology Museum. Li Qiuwen handed out the box to each contestant, "You can see that in addition to the most basic numerical information, there is also a red button on it." โ
After opening the package, Ling Long also saw a special button on the watch.
"When you feel that you are going to be hurt, press this red button, and the Anomaly Watch will send out an energy shield to protect everyone!" Li Qiuwen said proudly, "Our Hurricane City has also invested considerable manpower and material resources to support this competition, I hope you will work hard and achieve excellent results!"
"Such a powerful equipment ......" When Ling Long heard about the Science and Technology Museum, he couldn't help but think of Professor Hao, so many days had passed, and he didn't know that she had never come out of the shadow of broken love.
"Of course...... This energy shield has limitations, and it needs to be recharged in the Floating Ball every time it is used, but it is not a problem to use it once per match. โ
Other words...... You need to use the shield to predict and resist the opponent's most lethal moves...... Ling Long interprets it this way, although it can only be used once per game, many times the victory or defeat is often in an instant, and this watch undoubtedly brings a huge off-field advantage to their whole team.
However, Ling Long was also worried about one problem: in terms of technology, Hurricane City was not the best among the five cities, and since they could bring the city's most cutting-edge technology to the competition, it meant that other teams would also have equipment of the same level or even higher...... If so, then the advantage becomes a disadvantage!
"No matter, let's see the move......" Ling Long took his watch with him, "Next, it is to do your best and obey the destiny of heaven!"
