Chapter 183: A fight soaked in blood! (2/2)
“Boom!”
Its punch striking empty air, the water giant immediately turned into outrageously huge waves that crashed ruthlessly toward Leo.
The double-headed dragon-snake spit dazzling thunderballs nonstop from its mouth.
These thunderballs constantly battered the huge waves and, against expectations, split them from the middle. Leo stood behind this double-headed dragon-snake, right in the middle of this split. Not even his clothes were touched by the water.
The vine with its pink flowers never stopped constricting. Blood spurted from Hedi.
“She’s not admitting defeat yet?”
“What’s Hedi trying to do?”
Wave after wave of astonishment were now constantly coming from the spectators in the stands. The girls in Agate Lake Academy covered their mouths and couldn’t hold back their shivers anymore. At the same time, two assistant referees couldn’t stay still anymore and had already rushed there, ready to interrupt the match.
Yet, Hedi didn’t even utter a single moan of pain. Arcane particles once again gushed from her hands!
With a tremendous “Boom,” the huge crashed waves suddenly rose once again and shaped back into a water giant behind Leo.
This time, huge waves were still crashing in front of Leo, while a water giant stood up behind him, trapping him in a pincer attack!
Flabbergasted, Leo suddenly yelled, “What?!”
He could only turn around, and, as soon as arcane particles madly sprayed from his hands, the water giant’s heavy punch had already landed down.
“Boom!”
Even with the many arcane particles acting as a barrier, his whole person still flew backward from the giant’s strength and crashed on the crashing waves behind him.
“Ah!”
He screamed in pain; his vision went black. His arms, as well as his back, were hurting as though they’d cracked open. His body fell to the ground along with the waves, drenched from head to toe.
Bound by the vine and its devilish sawtooths, Hedi’s face had already become utterly pale, but her lips still curved into a faint smile just then.
“The match is over! Leo wins!” Kleis bellowed, interrupting the match.
Though Leo had just fallen on the ground and hadn’t stood up yet, Hedi had already reached her limits. Any further delay and she would be directly bitten to death by this vine’s sawtooths!
An assistant referee stretched his hand and, with a shake, shot several silver rays of light streaking by. The sawtooth vine around Hedi completely disintegrated.
But Hedi couldn’t stay on her feet anymore. She toppled over, her body badly mangled.
Immediately, a medical team started tense emergency treatment on the already unconscious Hedi.
“Did Ayrin infect Agate Lake Academy as well?… She actually kept fighting even in such circumstances…” In the stands, Wilde and the other muscleheads from Iron Forest Academy were all in a daze, an unspeakable emotion filling their chests.
“Well done, worthy of a team representing our city!” Ivan slowly said with a deep breath.
“Don’t cry, raise your heads!”
In team Agate Lake, with a deep and low voice, Sophia was chiding the members of the team. Almost all of them had red eyes already.
“I’m the one who’ve known Hedi for the longest… But before today, I never imagined Hedi had such resolve and such will to fight. I’m proud of her, that’s why I won’t cry.”
“Right now… I only want to fight like she did!” She clenched her teeth and looked at Hedi being carried away from the field by the medical team, punctuating every word.
“Fight! For victory! For honor!”
Fighting second for Agate Lake Academy, Connie clenched her fists tight, made a solemn vow with a few words, then went up the field in great strides!
“Cough…cough…”
At this time, drenched all over, still a little frightened and confused, Leo struggled to stand up, swaying on his feet.
Facing an opponent with one less open gate than him, he’d not only consumed many arcane particles, he’d even received quite considerable wounds. Not only the pride he had at the start of the fight had now vanished like smoke, Leo was even worried whether he would still have an opportunity to represent Golden Stag now that Rinsyi witnessed his performance today.
“Leo against Connie, begin!”
In the increasingly tenser atmosphere, Kleis voice once again rang in the field and proclaimed the start of the fight.
“Puff!”
The instant the fight began, the same strange vine grew below Connie and coiled around her.
When it came to the speed of his skill invocation, Leo still had an absolute advantage.
But this time, Leo’s face became even paler. His hands even started shaking despite himself.
“Radiant Goddess!”
Because Connie wasn’t paying attention to his vine either. She still didn’t interrupt her skill invocation.
While the sawtooths growing on the vine lacerated countless wounds on Connie, the giant Radiant Goddess suddenly appeared as well.
“Puff!”
A blazing beam of light shot his way.
The slightest fraction of a second of delay caused him to be too late to protect himself.
“Ah!”
The blazing beam of light suddenly covered him in bloody bubbles. With a miserable yell, he toppled over.
The blazing light started burning the vine around Connie and turning into ashes.
Blood was still flowing from her wounds, yet she clenched her teeth tight and didn’t make any pained noise despite that. She stood there, steady on her feet!
Agate Lake Academy three, Golden Stag Academy one.
The entire arena suddenly fell into a strange silence!
