1113 The Scariest Man on the German Team (2/2)
The truth was, in Ai Jiangtu's opinion, the trickiest person to deal with on the German team was not necessarily their defensive Mage, Reed. The man had quite an obvious weakness. He was totally outmatched by Mo Fan's destructive spells, and the only thing that posed a threat to the team was his Innate Talent. However, with the right approach, the team did not have much trouble against him.
Meanwhile, their captain Johnson had been roaming around the stage like a phantom. The man was actually the main reason that the German team was able to take a few of the Chinese team members out! Most importantly, the captain of the German team did not have a single scratch on him, even though he had been in the battle for a long time. Despite the chaotic and intense battle, he had not been caught by any of the attacks. He even managed to dodge Mo Fan's Sky Lightning Claws with his outstanding awareness.
As long as Johnson was still in the match, the German team would still be able to take them on. After all, they had basically used all their defensive equipment. If they gave the opposing destructive Mages a chance to cast their spells, they would be eliminated, too!
Johnson was the person that created the opportunities for Reed. If they managed to keep Johnson at bay, it would simply magnify Reed's weaknesses!
”Captain, this guy is pretty strong. Be careful, he has at least two Soul-grade Seeds,” Jiang Yu said alertedly.
Ai Jiangtu nodded. He did not lower his guard just because he had trapped Johnson with his Space Element. The man could easily break free from his spell at any second!
Jiang Yu and Ai Jiangtu were fairly cautious, yet they still underestimated Johnson's explosive power. The man was able to take advantage of a mistake that the Night Rakshasa that Jiang Yu had sent into the space committed. He cast a powerful Light Spell to burn the little creature.
The Night Rakshasa was a dark-type creature, thus any Light Spell would inflict multiples of damage to her. The little creature cried out in pain as her black fur was burned away and her skin blistered from the scorching light.
Jiang Yu immediately withdrew the Night Rakshasa into the Contracted Space. His face was filled with pain and anger.
They had been extremely cautious, yet Johnson had still managed to counterattack them. The man was very good at keeping his composure, even though he was struggling to breathe from the enormous pressure applied by Ai Jiangtu's Space Magic. Despite that, he was still able to keep an eye on the Night Rakshasa and set up the Light trap!
Jiang Yu had lost both his Summoned Beasts, so he had basically lost half his strength. Luckily, he still had the Advanced Summoning Spell and two other Elements to assist Ai Jiangtu.
”He's running away with the Fleeing Shadow!” Jiang Yu immediately followed the man with his senses when he saw Johnson leaving a shadow behind and running away.
Ai Jiangtu had no intention to let Johnson escape, since he was basically an arrow at the end of its flight. Seeing that Johnson had moved eighty meters into the distance, Ai Jiangtu used Blink and showed up in the path that Johnson was escaping into.
”You've lost!” Ai Jiangtu reached out his hand and cast the Demon Torture on Johnson's shadow.
A huge, ghastly figure sinisterly showed up behind Johnson's shadow. It grabbed Johnson firmly and proceeded to drag Johnson's soul out.
During the tournament, if a participant's soul was drawn out by the Demon Torture, even without inflicting any damage on the participant's soul, the person would be disqualified from the match. After all, the Demon Torture of the Curse Element was too dangerous, as it could inflict incurable damage on the target's soul.
The two assistant judges quickly entered the stage upon seeing this.
However, Johnson's shadow suddenly turned into a puff of black smoke and vanished into thin air.
The two assistant judges that were planning to bring Johnson down the stage stood in their spot with blank faces for quite some time.
Ai Jiangtu immediately had a bad feeling upon seeing this!
He quickly turned around and saw a strange shadow showing up behind Jiang Yu. The silhouette of a human figure gradually became clear.
Johnson was holding a dagger in his hand. He placed it softly on Jiang Yu's neck and left a little cut on it.
The cut only damaged Jiang Yu's skin, it did not really hurt Jiang Yu, yet he was already drenched in cold sweat. He turned around in disbelief and saw Johnson's expressionless face right in front of him!
”You two, bring him down,” Johnson did not do anything excessive. His body soon turned into a black shadow and swiftly disappeared, but his voice was still echoing nearby amid the sand that was blown into the air.
The two assistant judges that had made a mistake reacted quickly. They came up to Jiang Yu and brought him out of the stage.
The outcome had taken everyone by surprise, including the two assistant judges.
They initially went into the stage to take Johnson away, yet not only did Johnson trick Ai Jiangtu and the assistant judges, he was able to take Jiang Yu out after he was left behind!
Johnson's achievement immediately stirred a great uproar among the supporters of the German team!
As expected of the captain, he was a lot more reliable than Reed, whom they initially had high hopes in because of the rumors!
It was obvious that Johnson was the strongest member of the German team!
