1119 Cunning Vixen (2/2)
The five made their way toward the river. All three teams were from strong nations, so it was unreasonable for the team to show a sign of weakness. They had to retain their momentum in order to win in the mixed battle.
They soon arrived at the river.
The first team they stumbled into was not the English team, but the Greek team.
The Greek team was less than a hundred meters away from the Chinese team. They did not attack right away, and seemed rather collected.
Mo Fan immediately saw Asha'ruiya among the Greek team. Even in the tournament, the woman was still dressed in a sacred, yet alluring outfit. If Mo Fan had not witnessed how insane Asha'ruiya could be in person, he would believe that she was a sacred Candidate for the role of the Goddess, just like everyone else.
Mo Fan exchanged glances with Asha'ruiya. The woman kept winking at him, as if she was flirting with him and teasing his impenetrable heart...
The English team arrived soon, led by their captain, Zorro, the man with dark green hair and eyes. Mo Fan could feel a dangerous presence under the man's gentle appearance.
Mo Fan saw Ayleen, too. She was as calm and elegant as usual. She nodded when she noticed Mo Fan's gaze.
For some reason, Mo Fan felt a sense of helplessness under Ayleen's conservative gaze!
”What should we do now?” Zhao Manyan glanced to his left, then to his right. He seemed to be under great pressure.
”We'll target the English team,” Ai Jiangtu said.
”For sure?”
”Yes!”
The team placed their attention on the English team as they prepared to attack.
However, to their surprise, the Greek team immediately engaged them, too!
It was not like a member of the Greek team had attacked the Chinese team directly, but a Summoned Beast shrouded by a deathly aura of darkness, wearing black armor and holding a giant, black sword was charging right at them from the direction of the Greek team!
Zhao Manyan almost felt like his head was about to explode as soon as he saw the creature. Wasn't this death knight riding on the dark horse the Dark Swordmaster that was guarding the pyramid in Egypt? Why the heck would it show up here?
The horse galloped forward, leaving a trail of wilted plants and fallen leaves behind it. The Dark Swordmaster raised the giant sword and slashed at Guan Yu, who was observing the surroundings from the high ground.
The black aura unleashed by the sword slashed through an entire row of the trees. Guan Yu agilely hopped between the trunks that were falling slowly. The Dark Swordmaster continued to swing its sword wildly at Guan Yu. The formidable attacks shattered the ancient trees into pieces before they even landed on the ground!
”Attack!”
Meanwhile, the English team made its move too, seeing that the Greek team had already engaged the enemy. The person that attacked first was Herbert who held a grudge against Mo Fan. He cast the Plummeting Rays, firing light arrows down at the Chinese team, forcing its members to either split up or stick closely together.
”F**k me, the two teams have teamed up to take us out first!” Zhao Manyan cursed while setting up his defense.
”We're done for, they actually teamed up against us...”
They initially decided to face the two powerhouses in a fair fight, but the two teams ended up joining forces instead to pick on them. It felt like the Chinese team was surely going to be disqualified at the start of the match. The supporters of the Chinese team cursed at the two powerhouses while worrying about the Chinese team's situation!

”Hehe, were you surprised? Little Mo Fan?” Asha'ruiya stood on a branch and glanced down at Mo Fan with a pair of glittering eyes.
”Do you really think I would believe the words of a cunning vixen like you?” Mo Fan grinned coldly. He seemed rather calm.
”What can you do even if you don't believe me? You're about to run away from here with your tail between your legs!” Asha'ruiya had a great smile. It looked pure and innocent, it totally did not look like she was trying to get her revenge on Mo Fan for taking advantage of her before!
”Do you really think I don't have a brain?” Even though Mo Fan knew the situation was not in favor of the team, and they might even lose a member or two within a short period of time, it was nowhere enough to disqualify the Chinese team immediately.
”Look behind you,” Asha'ruiya remained calm. She was not in a rush to attack.
Mo Fan turned around and saw a man with dark green hair and eyes approaching. It was obvious that he was planning to flank him together with Asha'ruiya.
”I believe I can take you out myself, but I've asked him to come just in case,” Asha'ruiya sounded very languid, like a woman speaking coquettishly to her boyfriend after just waking up. Any man would be flushed with embarrassment hearing it.
However, Mo Fan was not willing to fall for the trap of the cunning vixen. He turned around and glanced at Zorro, the participant ranked first in the tournament...
