Chapter 221: Soroark's New Moves (7k)
The surging gray fog filled and then dissipated.
Xia Chen is all too familiar with this scene, the scene of Zoroa changing back from the object of transformation.
In the past, Zoroa often transformed into Xianbu or Shanaiduo to tease Xia Chen, and then was exposed every time.
This time it's different, under the disguise of Shanaiduo in a pure white dress, what is revealed is...
Evil scarlet eyes, long hair dancing wildly without wind, and slender body slightly arched.
It was a gray-and-white humanoid fox with pink dots on the ends of its hair and body.
Soroark!
"Zoroa... Gram, have you evolved? ”
Xia Chen still touched the elf in front of him with his finger in disbelief, he was afraid that this was another layer of disguise put on by Zoroya, and he was afraid that this was his fantasy.
Soon, though, the hairy real touch in the palm of his hand made him sure that Zoroa had really evolved!
"Suo~"
Soroyak screamed affectionately, his voice hoarse, less of the squeamishness of an elven cub and more of a slightly mature steadiness and sharpness.
With her arrogant and handsome appearance, the word "Sister Drag" is the truest portrayal of her.
However, just like when Shanaido first evolved, Zoroac's personality could not change immediately as he evolved.
When she looked at Xia Chen, she could still see a little attachment in her eyes.
Zoroac's height is similar to that of Shanaiduo, and he is slightly taller than Xia Chen.
It is uncertain whether he is taller than the average height of the race, as the ethnicity data of Chlorthoroac is uncertain.
But looking at the little guys who were once curled up and attached to his arms, all of them have evolved into a taller appearance than himself, Xia Chen always has some subtlety in his heart.
】
It's not good or bad, but Xia Chen always looks like he's watching his daughters grow up one by one... The loneliness of the old father.
The old father has been in office for more than a year, and now, not super evolution, the four elves have all evolved into their final form.
Only the little dragon and the sticky treasure that are still in the egg have room for evolution.
…………
"It's too much, you didn't even call me when you evolved, and I didn't even have time to shoot a video for you."
Xia Chen regretted a little that he had missed the evolutionary moment behind him.
Except for the two evolutions of Xianbu and Lalulasi, who didn't have a chance to shoot, Xia Chen faithfully recorded the other evolutionary moments of the elves with images.
These are all good memories of Xia Chen's future retirement life.
"Solo..."
Zoroak, who was being touched by Senbu's curiosity, screamed aggrievedly, evolution is so sudden, I didn't expect it...
To be precise, she had a hunch that she was about to evolve during this time, but Zoroac didn't expect that she had evolved because of the Dream Demon Fruit she had eaten.
Now think back to the description of that soul fruit, and gain some of the abilities of the Dream Demon...
It turns out that it is not only moves, but also basic abilities such as energy intensity, special attack and special defense.
No, it's not all, Zoroac felt a surge of energy in his body that was different from before, and felt that the fruit was not as simple as he imagined.
Now is not the time to test, Zoroac has suppressed the curiosity in his heart for the time being, and is ready to see tomorrow how much he has evolved this time, and how much that fruit has changed him.
Because of Zoroark's evolution, Xia Chen tossed and played with the elves for a while.
It wasn't until almost twelve o'clock that Xia Chen, who was immersed in the excitement of Zoroya's evolution, remembered that there was such a thing as a competition the next day.
After taking the elves to wash up briefly, Xia Chen, who had been busy all day, quickly fell asleep.
It's just that from tonight, the sleeping environment is warm and crowded again...
…………
Early the next morning.
The opening ceremony of the main competition was carried out in the atmosphere of the Funan Liuhuo Arena.
After a two-day truce, the popularity of the Donghuang Young Trainer Contest not only did not decrease, but increased by a few points compared with the previous days.
There are two reasons for this, one is that the competition has transitioned from the qualifiers to the more exciting stage.
Second, the many amazing players who emerged in this competition are really surprising.
In addition to Xia Chen, the youngest and most talked-about person, Hu Yang, who is known as the strongest academic trainer in this competition, such as Lu Weiyu and Bai Mu, who are expected to perform well to win the championship, and Chi Hong, a travel trainer from the Guandu area, and his magical Pikachu...
A hundred flowers bloom is spring.
From the audience's point of view, no one likes a certain genius to reduce dimensionality and crush all the way to win the championship.
And like this competition, no one can guess who will go to the final and who will win the crown, which is the most hotly discussed competition.
After the passionate speech of the chairman of the Donghuang Alliance, the main stage of the Donghuang Young Trainer Competition was officially opened.
Xia Chen's opponent in the first round was unremarkable, a first-class training student from a first-class university who climbed up from the loser's group.
There are too many battles, and the style of play and tactics are all poorly studied.
In addition, the difference in strength between the two is indeed not small, and in only five minutes, Xia Chen quickly defeated him easily.
Not to mention Zoroac, he didn't even show any of Shanaiduo and Menas's abnormal moves.
The competition ended early, and after saying hello to Teacher Lin Quan, Xia Chen hurried back to the dormitory in a hurry.
Zoroac has just completed his evolution, and he and she must adapt to the evolved body and strength as soon as possible.
With only five days to play, even if Soroyak only plays as a hole card on the final day, time is of the essence for them.
…………
In the training room in the dormitory, Xia Chen observed the uncommanded battle between Shanaiduo and Zoroyak.
Shanaiduo's strength before evolution was similar to Zoroa, and the two elves were also similar in size, so Xia Chen wanted to see how Zoroac could perform in this battle.
Because there is no shortage of physical attackers in his team, Xia Chen's own cultivation plan for Zoroyak focuses on the two abilities of physical attack and speed.
This is reflected in the daily aspects of energy cubes, cultivation items, and training content.
But like other elves, Zoroac also has her own "self-cultivation" content, so she has not relaxed her training in special attack ability and moves.
If the elf has a six-pointed star ability map, Soroark's ability map should be a triangle similar to the Mercedes Benz logo, but the durability is not as exaggerated as low.
After the evolution, due to the changes in the body and the expansion of the skill pool, Zoroark's attack methods are very rich.
In this battle, in addition to the usual moves that he had mastered before, such as Shadow Ball, Shadow Claw, and Shadow Sneak Attack, Soroark also showed some newly learned moves.
Among them, the most unexpected thing for Xia Chen was the hidden spirit surprise attack, and a move that even Xia Chen had never seen.
The mastery of the Hidden Spirit Surprise Attack actually didn't surprise Xia Chen, after all, he could learn to meditate, and mastering superpowers was achieved through the fruit of the moves that Zoroa gave him.
Or it is not impossible that Zoroac, who washes the emerald ghost attribute, can learn the sneak spirit attack by himself.
No matter how the move was learned, but the addition of this move made Zoroak, who was already extremely fast, even more agile and ghostly, and his combat effectiveness was directly improved to a higher level.
And another move... It's a little weird.
Recalling the strange ghostly energy that suddenly drilled out from under Shanaiduo's feet, entwined like hair, and spread on Shanaiduo's body, Xia Chen was still a little incredible.
The form of that move is different from all the currently known ghost-based moves, could it be a move that belongs only to the ghost Thoroark?
…………
Exclusive moves are not uncommon in the game, and almost every cover god has their own exclusive moves.
For example, the finishing touches of the Hoenn Three Fools, the Root Fluctuation and the Sword of the Cliff.
As a unique symbol of the beasts that are beyond ordinary elves, the effects of exclusive moves are generally very powerful.
In addition to the legendary elves, there are also some special rare elves that also have their own exclusive moves.
Soroark's Dark Blast is one of them.
Before Zoroa evolved, Xia Chen had thought that his attributes had changed, and if the ghost Zoroyak would not be able to learn Dark Blast.
I didn't expect it to evolve and look at it, it's really like this.
However, without the Dark Blast, it seems that he has learned a new exclusive move, the name Xia Chen does not know, but according to the rules of the elf world, Xia Chen has the right to name this new move.
According to the description of Shanaiduo, who was the first to be hit by the move, she could feel a creepy, thick aura of resentment from the ghostly energy that spread throughout her body.
If it's more straightforward, then this move should be called a grudge attack.
But resentment attacks this name... I feel that there is no momentum when I shout it, and it sounds like a grade of grabbing and pecking.
So Xia Chen decided to name this move [Retribution].
After the subsequent tests on the move force tester and the description of the elves' personal feelings, Xia Chen probably understood the damage and additional effects of this move.
Retribution is a special move of the ghost department, and its power itself is not too high, probably similar to that of a high-speed star.
But the additional effects are quite interesting.
The elf that is hit will have about a 30% chance of entering an abnormal state, similar to freezing, but not frozen, but a bit similar to a burning state-
Continuously loses health and, more importantly, halves the damage when using special damage.
Undoubtedly, this was another new discovery in terms of anomalies, and Xia Chen logically named it [Frostbite].
This move has more than that, and when it hits an opponent in an ailmentous state, it doubles the damage.
In this case, the damage of retribution is not ordinary, and it is almost enough to catch up with high-powered moves such as meteor swarm and flying leaf storm.
…………
Which of the two moves is stronger or weaker?
It is definitely a lie to say that each has its own merits, in addition to the power of the move, retribution in all other aspects can be said to be better than the dark blast.
One has about a 40% chance of reducing the opponent's hit rate, and the other has a 30% chance of putting the opponent into a frostbite state.
Even if the expectation is calculated, the weakening of the opponent by retribution is higher than the former.
Not to mention that revenge can also double the damage of opponents in negative states.
You must know that there are few more common ghost-based high-power moves, and the Shadow Ball is one of the best.
There are not nothing more powerful, such as Shadow Sneak Attack and Shadow Light, but these are the exclusive moves of the Legendary Elves, and ordinary Elves cannot learn them at all.
In such a vertical comparison, if you can do double the damage, the power of retribution is very high.
Of course, even if it can't, this move is not weak at all.
It took a morning, and Xia Chen basically understood the current strength of Soroark.
However, if you want to play her on the battlefield, this is definitely not enough, and he and Soroak still need a little time to grind.
And once the run-in is over, the hidden spirit surprise attack will add to the retribution, plus the [hallucination] characteristic that makes the opponent unable to see and understand...
Xia Chen had already begun to look forward to the scene when the overlord of the phantom shined in front of the world.
——————
The main event phase lasted five days, with six rounds from the 64ers to the final title match.
Except for the final day of the finals, where two rounds were played, the semi-finals and the finals, the previous matches were played one round a day.
At the end of the first day of competition, there were two fewer teams of ten people from Shanghai Beijing University.
It is not surprising that the quality of the game and the intensity of the confrontation have improved significantly since entering the main competition.
However, for a person like Xia Chen, who has enough strength, the first two rounds of the main competition are no different from the qualifiers.
The second round of the game was still resolved lightly, and Xia Chen, who had left the battlefield, was about to return to the dormitory to continue training with Soroark.
Behind him, an unfamiliar voice suddenly stopped him.
"Xia Chen, wait a minute!"
Xia Chen turned his head and was surprised to find that what stopped him was a red that he hadn't seen for more than a year.
It's not accurate to describe it like this, the game has been played for so many days, Xia Chen has seen each other several times, and so has Crimson.
However, the schedule is really tight, and he is busy studying opponents and training and preparing for the competition, so Xia Chen has never chatted with this old friend.
I didn't expect him to come over first today.
Stopping his steps, Xia Chen smiled and greeted Crimson, who was walking briskly, "Long time no see, Crimson." ”
Crimson lifted the brim of her hat, and her smile was also bright, "Long time no see, Xia Chenjun!" ”
Teacher Lin Quan in the lounge had a glint of wisdom in his eyes, he didn't guess wrong, Xia Chen really knew this young man from Guandu, and he was still an old acquaintance!
Xia Chen and Crimson are also the two players who have attracted a lot of attention in this competition, and for a while, the people in the lounge looked at them with curious eyes.
Glancing at the crowd eating melons online, Xia Chen asked, "When will your competition start?" ”
Crimson understood and replied, "It's only started in the afternoon, let's go out to talk?" ”
Xia Chen nodded, and in the disappointed eyes of everyone, the two left the lounge side by side.
…………
Inside the stadium, the game was in full swing, so there were few people outside at all, and it seemed a little deserted.
After buying a few drinks, Xia Chen and Crimson walked to the hall and casually found a quiet place to chat and catch up.
Looking at the yellow-skinned mouse with his tail wagging and burying his head in drink, Xia Chen asked with a smile: "This is what you said at that time, Pikachu who didn't want to come out, right?" ”
Crimson touched Pikachu with a little nostalgia and recalled, "That's right, although I accepted him at that time, the relationship was not very good... I didn't think you remembered this. ”
Xia Chen smiled, this Pikachu... I'm afraid there isn't a single one of all Pokémon fans who doesn't remember.
Other Pikachu is just Pikachu, only him, who is called the leather god by fans.
Thinking so in his heart, Xia Chen joked: "Because at that time, I thought that the elf who got along badly with his trainer... It's quite rare. ”
Pikachu glanced up at Xia Chen, and the two electric capsules on his cheeks flashed bright yellow electricity, which means that if you dare to say a bad word again, I will call you.
Xia Chen didn't doubt the possibility of this electric rat who was not very good-tempered with strangers, and he coughed lightly and added: "It's a lot of good things, it turns out that you have become a pair of reliable partners." ”
Pikachu snorted twice and continued to drink.
Crimson nodded approvingly, "Along the way, I have indeed experienced a lot of things with Pickup, Mosquito Coil, Wonderful Frog and Kirby. ”
Wonderful frog? Kirby?
Crimson's current third and fourth main elves are Kirby and Frog Flower?
Sure enough, it's the same main lineup as in the special chapter.。
The performance of these two elves in the special chapter also had a profound impact on Xia Chen.
Frogflower defeated the Teal-green Charizard in the final battle of the Quartz Alliance, helping Crimson win the championship.
Kirby's beast power is infinite, his skin is rough and his flesh is thick, and this one is even more heavyweight.
Until now, these two crimson elves have not even appeared...
Xia Chen was more interested in Crimson's true strength.
…………
After chatting for a while, Xia Chen suddenly remembered something that he had been curious about for several days.
"By the way, how did you get a spot in this competition?"
After recalling for two seconds, Crimson replied, "When I traveled through Nandu, I practiced with Pikachu at the Thunder Gym over there for a while, and I had a good relationship with Master Lin. Their dojo didn't have any apprentices this year, so I came on their behalf. ”
Well... The reason for the children of the extraordinary plane.
Xia Chen smiled slightly, "It seems that your journey has been very exciting!" ”
Crimson smiled, "How can you be wonderful, but I have listened to your news and deeds along the way." ”
"Then I don't know anything about your deeds, do I want to tell me your story?"
“......”
There were so many things that happened in a year, and the two of them chatted a little bit about the time, until the morning game was all over, and the surging crowd poured out of the stadium, Xia Chen and Crimson got up and separated.
"I still have to train in the afternoon, so I won't watch you play, you come on."
Before parting, Xia Chen apologized slightly for his absence in the afternoon.
Crimson grinned, "It's okay, you're busy, we'll see you in the finals." ”
said the craziest words in a lightly written tone, Xia Chen shouted in his heart to force the king.
But no matter what, the momentum can't fall, Xia Chen stretched out his hand to meet the red open palm.
High-fived as an oath, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
People came and went around them, Xia Chen and Crimson waved goodbye, got into the crowd, and gradually moved away with the flow of people.
…………
December 20, the third day of the main stage of the Youth Competition.
The third round has begun, and today, the quarterfinals of this tournament will be contested.
At this point in the competition, the players who stayed in the competition were all the proud sons of the sky in the Donghuang region.
It's not right, you have to exclude Crimson, a Guandu person...
In short, in every game that follows, there will hardly be a crushing scene.
Xia Chen's opponent in this round of the game is a non-academic trainer, and his strength is comparable to Jiang Pei, who he defeated in the qualifiers-
The inheritor of the Bingzhen Gym, Wang Ding.
This opponent Xia Chen knows something, and the first person to be beaten into the lower bracket at Beijing University is him.
Although it is not as popular as Lu Weiyu or Bai Mu, it can be regarded as one of the seeded players in this competition.
At that time, Xia Chen had also studied Wang Ding's terrible snow team, and he never thought that he would encounter it in the sixteen-in-eight game.
However, Xia Chen predicted that his opponent in this round was most likely Wang Ding in the schedule battle map drawn by himself before the main game, so he was also prepared.
In the weather team, he knows more about the sunny and rainy sand, but the snow team doesn't know much about it, and he has been making up for it for a while in the past few days, and found the eye of this lineup, the ice nine-tails.
To be precise, it is the aurora curtain opened by the Ice Nine-Tails.
It's no secret, because the aurora curtain is too conspicuous and prominent.
The physical and special damage taken by your elves was halved, and the green caterpillar dared to sit in the air while standing behind the aurora.
Of course, the aurora curtain is not without a way to crack it, and the simplest one is the [crackling tile] that can break the light wall, the reflection wall, and the aurora curtain.
The good news is that Cracker is a move that can be learned in a wide range of ways, and Xia Chen's Soroyak can learn it.
The bad news is that Xia Chen doesn't want Soroak to be exposed in this matchup.
So how to break through the aurora curtain that resisted the Ice Nine-Tails is a difficult problem.
After thinking about several sets of plans, Xia Chen finally decided to try a way to play that could best solve the root cause.
…………
"Hello to the audience and friends in the live broadcast room of Station P, you are watching the third match of the top 16 of the Donghuang Youth Trainer Competition, which is also the focus of this round, Xia Chen from Shanghai Beijing University, and Wang Ding from the Bingzhen Gym in Litang City. I'm the narrator of this scene. ”
In the studio, the white silk female anchor with a dream demon on her shoulder introduced it unhurriedly.
"The guest we connected this time is a trainer with ice attribute expertise, the owner of the Frost Moster Mountain Gym from the Padia region, Gu Luxia!"
As soon as the words fell, the white silk female commentary flickered in light and shadow, and then, a hologram of a cold and glamorous beauty standing in the ice and snow appeared beside her.
This is an advanced version of the Vladali Holographic Communicator, capable of projecting people thousands of miles away in the studio.
The voice, appearance, and movements are all very realistic.
This is one of the innovations of this year's competition, starting with the round of 16, each competition will invite an outstanding trainer from around the world as a guest.
The first two matches were connected to Denji from the Hammy-dokan in the Sinnoh area and Naki from the Inyu Dokan in the Hoenn area.
Judging from the enthusiastic response of the audience, the experimental effect is very good.
The third game was no exception, as soon as the hologram of Gurusha appeared in the studio, the barrage immediately began to generate electricity.
"Padia area, it's so far away, but this guest is so good-looking, I've forgotten Naki, my sister stepped on me!"
"Sister Bleach! Iceberg Beauty! Kaolin Flower! Sister Gurusha poked me so much! ”
"Sister? Brother, sober up, this is a man! Dig it out and be bigger than you! ”
"Damn, how is it possible, such a beautiful man can be a man?"
"Damn, it's a man? More excited! ”
After all, there are at least eight or more Daoist Pavilion Owners in each region, and many Donghuang people can't even recognize a dozen or so Daoist Pavilion Owners in their own homes, let alone the Padia region.
So when the known barrage picked out the real gender of Gurusha, many viewers were stunned.
But it's normal, the scarf covers the neck, the heavy down jacket covers the upper body, and the two important gender characteristics are covered, just from his delicate facial features and cold temperament, he really looks like a girl.
However, after knowing that this was a man, the barrage became even more excited for a while.
It can only be said that there are too many network Nantong...
…………
Like the ice and snow around him, Gurusha's temperament is very cold, and the female narrator usually uses a few words to talk to him.
However, when the commentator asked about the contestants, Gurusha began to talk more.
"Xia Chen's video... Ah no, I've watched several games, it's very powerful, especially the one that freezes the field with water sprays and freezing beams, full of aura, I think he has a lot of talent as an ice attribute trainer, at least he can try to cultivate an ice elf, the ice elves in Frost Mob Mountain are rich in variety, and the vast whale is also very cute, if you have the opportunity to ......"
"Ahem..."The female commentator Youyou interrupted Gu Luxia, who was suddenly talking, "Then what do you think of Wang Ding?" ”
After two seconds of silence, Gurusha said, "It's not bad..."
After waiting for a few seconds and not following up, the female commentator was stunned and said, "Just... Gone? ”
"Hmm... I think Xia Chen can choose to cultivate a quasi-god with the characteristics of our Padian region, the halberd dragon, which is a physical attacker that Xia Chen lacks, and has a wide range of strikes......"
The female commentator has no choice but to support her forehead, which is treated differently... Isn't it a bit too much?
The barrage was already laughing like crazy at this time.
"Hahaha, the pigeon master card has turned the iceberg into a chatterbox!"
"Wang Ding: Aren't we both ice attribute trainers? Just a review with the word 'not bad'? ”
"It's broken, Gurusha is also a beanie pigeon!"
"Trivia, Guruxia's P station account is hung with a level 28 coo-coo pigeon brand."
"As soon as I opened my mouth, it was a video of Xia Chen, an old pigeon fancier."
In the playful barrage discussion, the picture in the live broadcast room cut to the battlefield, and the holographic projection of Gurusha was pasted in the small corner of the upper right corner.
As all spectators know, this means that the game is about to begin.
Not long after, the referee's whistle blew and the battle officially began.
"At the beginning of the battle, the starting elves of both sides appeared, and the one sent by Wang Ding's side, as expected, was the Ice Nine-Tails with [snowfall] characteristics, and the Aurora Curtain was opened after the snow, which was a tactic that Wang Ding's players would use in most cases. And now, the snow has begun to fall above the battlefield. ”
Gu Luxia answered: "Xia Chen's side is sending Menas, is it to seize the weather?" Xia Chen's Menas move is released quickly, and it is possible to release the rain to change the weather to rain before the release of the aurora curtain is completed, so as to prevent the release of the extremely troublesome aurora curtain, could he be this idea? ”
