Chapter 540: Chapter 273: The Perfect Kill in The Flower! _2
Establishing a good relationship with Fang Qin was rooted in gaining the good graces of the boy on stage.
Mo Shang was always curious about Fang Mu. Mo Shang understood clearly that his grandmother was able to take Fang Qin as a disciple, almost completely thanks to Fang Mu’s efforts.
Mo Shang, who received praise since childhood, however, lacked such strategic abilities and planning at Fang Mu’s age.
Fang Mu was not short of resources in terms of strength; all he was missing was a Beast Master Star Level.
With the help of Sacred Relics Sakura Tempering Carp, Fang Mu’s Beast Master Star Level was bound to surpass his peers sooner or later.
Mo Shang had heard about the incidents in JA City and Lu City, and Fang Mu played a positive role in both crises.
The resolution in Lu City went so smoothly, and all credit largely went to Fang Mu.
A young man like him, with responsibility and strong sense of duty, would likely represent the Dragon Rising Federation in the World Collegiate Championships in the future.
As for the situation on stage, Mo Shang was not sure how to comment for a moment.
Mo Shang couldn’t be sure of the abilities that the plant-type beast master, planted in the special field [Above the Green Field], had.
However, through Fang Mu’s eyes, Mo Shang knew that Fang Mu was completely confident of winning this duel.
Zhang Kai, thought Fang Mu would react as the Saber-Toothed Giant Centipede and the Blade Cockroach Swarm was getting closer and closer to the Rain Curtain.
Expecting the Half-Elf, that was as young as a child and at the Silver Stage, to transform into a Blood Noble.
Yet Fang Mu did nothing, evidently leaving the Blade Cockroach Swarm to their fate.
Normally at this point, Zhang Kai should have instructed the Saber-Toothed Giant Centipede to charge into the rain curtain using its strong defenses and launch an attack on Fang Mu.
To force Fang Mu to let his Half-Elf transform.
And to create a condition for the Blade Cockroach Swarm to start attacking Fang Mu on the petals by flapping its wings.
However, such an action would separate the Saber-Toothed Giant Centipede and the Blade Cockroach Swarm.
At a time when Zhang Kai was unsure of the effects of Jianmu’s massive lotus, Zhang Kai was unwilling to take that risk.
Zhang Kai could only grit his teeth and order part of the Blade Cockroach Swarm to unfurl their wings and use their bodies to block the rain in the sky.
To allow some of the Blade Cockroaches to walk on the grassland filled with rainwater.
Doing so could ensure the battle strength of more than two hundred Blade Cockroaches while sacrificing the other half of the Blade Cockroach Swarm.
The Saber-Toothed Giant Centipede could also rely on the path paved by the bodies of the Blade Cockroaches to reduce the damage it suffered.
Chen Peng, the head coach of the Xiangtian Club Guild, had always been unsatisfied with Zhang Kai’s decisions.
However, Zhang Kai’s current strategy finally made Chen Peng nod in approval.
If Zhang Kai had done this earlier, summoning the Saber-Toothed Giant Centipede from the beginning,
Then his current Blade Cockroach Swarm would not consist of over four hundred cockroaches, but more than six hundred!
Under Zhang Kai’s command, the Blade Cockroach Swarm showed perfect discipline.
Over a hundred Blade Cockroaches spread their wings to face the rain curtain, while the remaining Blade Cockroaches hoisted up their companions on both sides and raced at top speed across Eden Dreamland.
They aimed to increase the climbing distance with speed.
However, while Zhang Kai’s calculations were accurate, and the strategic deployment was nearly perfect,
The rain that kept pouring under the influence of the Rainy Doll’s two Rain Curtain Cicadas, meant that the amount of rainwater accumulated in Eden Dreamland was far beyond ordinary proportions.
Earler, when the Blade Cockroaches stepped on it, the water level was just above their legs.
But now, even the extended heads of the Blade Cockroaches were directly buried underwater.
The mouthparts of insects have always been their weak point. Even if the Blade Cockroaches clamped their mouths shut, the corrosive nature of rainwater would instantly corrode the weakest part of their carapace.
The rainwater would pour directly into the mouths of the Blade Cockroaches.
While the Blade Cockroaches initially could have trekked within ten meters of Jianmu, the bottom-most ones didn’t manage to climb a distance of seven to eight meters before their bodies started decomposing into pus due to the internal corrosion of the poison.
The current Blade Cockroach Swarm was still nearly thirty meters away from Jianmu. Although this distance was within the gliding range of the Blade Cockroaches, long distances would reduce the impact of the Blade Cockroaches.
This was not conducive to the Blade Cockroaches’ attack.
At this point, Zhang Kai had no choice. If he did not allow the Blade Cockroach Swarm to take flight, the entire swarm would soak in rainwater when the bottom-most cockroaches turned into pus.
Zhang Kai gnashed his teeth and shouted.
“All Blade Cockroaches, take flight! The Saber-Toothed Giant Centipede, immediately use the Strong Body skill!”
Under Zhang Kai’s command, the Saber-Toothed Giant Centipede, which had already been enhanced by [Dark Vein Burst Blood], lit up in a dim light.
The hardness of the Saber-Toothed Giant Centipede’s shell increased instantaneously, putting its body in a dominant state.
In addition to the stimulation of its own spiritual power, it made the Saber-Toothed Giant Centipede highly resistant to the spiritual poison in the rainwater.
Fang Mu had been relying on the Rainy Doll’s Rain Absorption Spirit to obtain the poison for combat.
In fact, the true offensive ability of the Rainy Doll lay in its special feature [Poison Mark Fragments].
On these Blade Cockroaches washed by rainwater, countless poison marks had already formed without anyone noticing.
Fang Mu immediately ordered the Rainy Doll to use its exclusive feature [Poison Mark Fragments].
For every three layers of poison marks, an explosion would occur due to the effect of [Poison Mark Fragments].
Explosions echoed on the Blade Cockroaches who were given priority by Zhang Kai to control the rain curtain.
In an instant, hundreds of Blade Cockroaches flying in the highest sky were blasted into pieces.
Raindrops as large as beans pelted down, striking the wing-spread Blade Cockroaches.
With every three drops of rain falling on a Blade Cockroach, the exploding effect attached by the special feature [Poison Mark Fragments] would be triggered once.
With each Blade Cockroach exploding, it would affect the surrounding Blade Cockroaches.
