Chapter 61 - Old Wan Thinks He's Got This

The power of the Name's move was undeniable, but its stamina was still lacking, and it faded quickly after the initial strike.

Name steadied himself. Steam rose from his arms as he slammed them into the ground. The skin on his arms looked as if it were coated in molten lava. You could probably fry an egg on it.

However, this scorching heat was nothing to Name. His powerful adaptability had allowed him to gradually become immune to the Name's regular attacks.

"My turn."

Name dropped to all fours. The muscles on his body bulged at a visible rate. His body swelled by about a third in a short period, making him look strong and powerful.

He kicked off the ground, sending dust flying.

Name charged towards Name like a cheetah sprinting at top speed.

"So fast!"

<> once again unleashed a barrage of attacks. Because <>'s speed was so high, he switched to continuous firing, like a red laser sweeping across the area. Several trees were easily sliced in two wherever it passed.

Seeing this, <>'s companions were terrified, and they held their breath for him.

Among the various mutants, <> had the strongest offensive power. Caught off guard, even <> wouldn't dare say he could win.

After all, his body was also made of flesh and blood. One sweep from <> and it would be over!

In a battle between mutants, besides the strength of their abilities, seizing the initiative was crucial.

Because of a moment's carelessness, their abilities might not even be deployed before they were killed with a single blow.

Not everyone had the same vitality as <>. Most mutants' bodies were just like ordinary people.

It was only because <>'s ability was special, evolving into a hard armor, that he could directly withstand <>'s attacks.

此时的<>就像是穿山甲和猎豹的结合体,结合了防御力与敏捷性,眼见光束袭来,<>凌空一跃,在半空中避开了横扫而过的<>,落地之后,再度加速冲刺.

很快两人的距离就拉进到了十米.

一旦让<>近身,凭借力量优势,<>可以轻松击败<>.

<>也知道这一点,开始蓄积能量,将其汇聚到在胸口位置,面目都扭曲起来,嘴里发出闷哼声,不知道的还以为他便秘了呢.

"嗖~"

就在<>把剧烈拉进到五米的时候,<>胸口喷射出一道水桶粗的圆形环状<>.

这一次的<>威力更大,哪怕是<>被击中,也绝对不会好受.

<>连忙侧身躲避,<>则在光束的反冲之下,退出了一段距离,险些没有站稳.

And the attack <> just launched created a crater about five meters in diameter and over a meter deep in the hillside behind <>.

Its power was clearly greater than that of a standard rocket.

Among those present, only <> and <> could withstand such an attack without injury.

<> looked at <> with concern. "Isn't this a bit too much?"

<> said calmly, "Too much? The real enemies will be far more ruthless. Professor, I understand your desire to protect them, but you must also understand that you can't protect them every moment of every day. Getting hurt and bleeding now is better than them losing their lives later."

"<> is right. A fledgling eagle only learns to soar by leaving its warm nest to face the unpredictable storms, and a young colt must leave its comfortable pen to raise its hooves and gallop across the war-torn battlefield."

<> agreed with <>'s point of view.

Although <> could see what others were thinking, his own thoughts were too idealistic.

Meanwhile, <> and <> were fighting fiercely.

When it came to stamina, <> couldn't compare to <>, and after a burst of attacks, began to pant.

<> seized the opportunity to get close, but saw <> who was bent over, gasping for breath, release <> again. This time, <>'s target wasn't <>, but the ground.

Under the recoil of this thick <>, <> was sent flying into the air.

"Haha! Let me show you my new move."

<> let out a hearty laugh, then gathered energy in both hands, firing a barrage of fist-sized laser beams downwards.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of laser beams struck down, causing a series of explosions. In an instant, dust and smoke filled the air, obscuring <>'s figure.

By using <>'s impact, <> could briefly float in the air, but couldn't sustain it. Before the smoke and dust had dispersed, <> fell from the sky.

Before I could even steady myself to assess the situation, a pitch-black clawed hand burst from the earth beneath me, grabbing Li Luo's ankle.

"What?!"

Before Li Luo could react, his body was dragged into the excavated soil, leaving only his head above ground.

It turned out that, under the cover of the smoke, Gong had been secretly digging a hole to hide underground. He was using this to dodge the attacks while waiting for Li Luo to land.

Then, relying on his rapid digging skills, he'd arrived at Li Luo's landing spot, securing victory in one fell swoop.

"The victor, Gong."

The referee announced the results.

"Are you alright?"

<> changed back to its original form, reaching out to help <> up.

"It's nothing. I let my guard down this time, but I'll definitely win next time,"

<> said cheerfully.

During the competition, both had given it their all, but afterward, they were still good friends, holding no grudges.

Next up was the match between <> and <>.

<>, <>, and <>'s presence in the team was relatively low.

<> was in charge of research and development. At <>'s suggestion, <> had created a <> for <> earlier than in the original storyline, allowing <> to fly using it.

Initially, it failed once, but with <>'s anti-gravity supporting them, <> wasn't injured. After a period of training, <> was already able to fly using sound waves and <>.

<> had two pairs of dragonfly-like, bio-engineered wings, giving them the ability to fly. Their battle was primarily aerial.

The way they attacked looked a bit cheap, though.

One used a deep bass voice, and the other spat.

Ultimately, <>'s superior flying skills gave them the edge, defeating <>.

"The victor, <>."

After <> announced the results, <> looked at <>: "How about we have a match?"

The sun was out, the rain had stopped, and Old Wan thought he could do it again!

Hearing that <> wanted to challenge them, <> clenched their fists and jumped into the arena: "Come on, let me see where you get your confidence from?"
