Disaster Strikes

In the waiting area.

Chen Mo, Lei Wu, and Apocalypse gathered together to rest and wait for the afternoon fighting competition.

Chen Mo leaned on the sofa and looked at Lei Wu who was resting with his eyes closed.

"I remember your opponent this afternoon was the blaster from the Mad Fighting Team, right?"

Lei Wu didn't open his eyes and gave a faint "hmm".

"Why didn't you collect his information yesterday?"

"Because...when I deal with him, I will go all out."

As he spoke, Lei Wu smiled ferociously and looked ambitious, as if he was planning to have an extremely fair and hearty battle with him.

Chen Mo knew that once this guy got serious, he would be an extremely scary guy with a very extreme personality.

Therefore, he couldn't help but show a little expectation.

It is said that Blast is also an elemental mage, and an earth attribute elemental mage.

"In that case, Brother Leiwu, you should take a rest first, and Apocalypse and I will go visit Master Jack."

"Um."

Lei Wu continued to close his eyes and rest.

Chen Mo brought the Apocalypse to Jack's side. At this time, Jack was sitting with Barron, talking and laughing. The big sunny boy Crius was unlucky and encountered a powerful natural disaster named Mandala. Be eliminated.

It can be seen from this.

This mission can be said to be a crouching tiger, hidden dragon among the victims of natural disasters.

"Master Jack!"

"Traveler."

Seeing the traveler arriving with the Apocalypse, Jack was obviously relieved and seemed to be looking forward to his arrival.

Barron is still wearing a black suit and black toad glasses, with one hand in his pocket and the other playing with gold coins. He is a very cold and tough guy.

After the two parties exchanged brief greetings, Chen Mo jumped into the topic.

"Master, the purpose of my coming here is for the afternoon fighting competition. To be honest, our team is not sure of defeating you and this Barron. In addition, we are quite satisfied with your action last night. I believe Master, you will definitely not be stingy, so I plan to... haha."

Although Chen Mo didn't say it clearly, his meaning was self-evident.

Jack showed an arc of satisfaction.

"Selling two places at once?"

"Um."

After receiving Chen Mo's reply, Jack showed his white teeth, thought for a moment, snapped his fingers, and said a number in Chen Mo's ear that made his eyes light up.

Chen Mo then told the Apocalypse what Jack meant, and the uncle nodded with satisfaction after hearing the words.

"As expected of Master Jack, deal is done!"

"It's a small thing."

The transaction between the two parties was quite pleasant. Jack took out a phone similar to that of a big brother. After a brief explanation, he signaled to Chen Mo: "This is OK. Your account will be received within three minutes."

Chen Mo made an OK gesture.

Although the two parties have not signed a contract, they have cooperated before and have established a high degree of trust. This kind of "little thing" does not require complicated procedures.

Jack looked amused.

"As far as I know, the top eight winners of this fighting competition will be personally received by Yuichi Akagi in the evening, and the prizes will also undergo qualitative changes compared to before. Don't you natural disaster fighters put profits first? Not excited at all?"

Chen Mo, who was about to leave, stopped after hearing this.

"It's naturally a lie to say that I'm not moved."

But then he shook his head.

"However, as natural disaster victims, we have our own cognitive system. This fighting competition is filled with many uncertain factors. Interests are bound to be accompanied by crises. Our team is not ready to deal with this risk."

"You mean, there is a conspiracy in this competition?"

Jack glanced at Barron, thoughtfully.

Chen Mo, with an expression that said nothing, took the Apocalypse away.

…

After lunch break.

The top 16 competition of the National Fighting Competition officially begins.

"Dear ladies and gentlemen, friends who are watching the live game on TV, good afternoon to everyone!"

Passionate and passionate music is played in the stadium at appropriate times.

The audience immediately became excited with the music.

"I am Xiaosong, the host of this national fighting competition. The exciting top 16 competition will officially start in five minutes. During this period, you can place bets to support your favorite fighters according to your preferences. In addition, according to the competition According to the rules, the next competition venue will be changed to a 200-meter * 200-meter full-body arena, and tonight's top 8 winners will be personally received by Mr. Yuichi Akagi, Chairman of Akagi Hi-Tech Group, and will be personally prepared by the Chairman The mysterious prize!”

Not to mention the interaction between the host and the audience.

Lei Wu in the waiting area suddenly heard a sneer.

"That guy seems to have left."

After Chen Mo heard this, he couldn't help but look around the waiting area. Sure enough, he saw no trace of explosions, so he frowned and left the waiting area, signaling to Tiantian and Xieying who were waiting outside the door to look for the Mad Fighting Team and the Hunter Team. people.

soon.

After looking around outside, the two women shook their heads at Chen Mo.

The Mad Fighting Team and the Hunter Team completely disappeared.

When Chen Mo returned to Lei Wu again, the game had officially begun.

The first one to appear was Leigo, and then his opponent exploded.

"It seems that the deterrent effect we just achieved was pretty good."

Chen Mo smiled and said: "These two teams have probably given up on the difficulties. After all, the punishment mechanism of this mission is not worth mentioning at all."

That's fine too.

It is in line with Chen Mo's plan.

Lei Wu snorted lightly, without comment, and followed the staff's instructions and walked towards the ring.

Next are Chen Mo and Jack.

The host’s explanation will not be repeated.

On the 200-meter by 200-meter ring, the two looked at each other, smiling silently at each other under the dedicated massage of the nurse.

Speaking of which, although Chen Mo had been in contact with this young master Jack many times, he had never really understood him.

As early as five years ago in this world, when Chen Mo was undergoing the Starving Ghost Trial, Master Jack already had the strength to hit a small boss.

It was just because the night before the mission started, he and the martial arts masters formed a national investigator organization to try to break into the T2-level Dr. Bai's experimental base. They were severely injured and escaped to the yacht, and then summoned the starving ghost students.

Nowadays.

The strength of this young master Jack is obviously stronger than before, and he already has the strength of a first-level big boss.

"The next battle between the two sides seems to be a battle between dragons and tigers. I am here to announce that the game has officially begun!"

Upon hearing this, the two assistant referees signaled to Chen Mo and Jack respectively that the game officially began.

This time.

Chen Mo did not summon Xiao Bai again. After many battles in this mission world, he has gradually adapted to his current fighting style and has gained some experience in close combat. He is no longer just a novice melee fighter based on instinct. or.

Now the two have reached a deal.

Although Chen Mo will not try to defeat the opponent, even if it is a performance, it must be on point so that others cannot fault it, and even let Master Jack fully experience that the money is well spent.

And if Chen Mo is easily defeated by Jack, Jack will obviously feel like he is at a disadvantage.

The balance between this is what Chen Mo needs to control.

certainly.

He can also take this opportunity to hone his close combat experience with the help of Master Jack. This opportunity cannot be wasted easily.

Jack, who was wearing a tight vest and jeans, activated his electro-optical wave skill twenty meters away from Chen Mo.

Chen Mo saw this.

Relying on his flexible basic body skills, he rolled on the spot, and at the same time activated his mutant telekinesis skill to counterattack Jack. Chen Mo gained a slight advantage in the first confrontation.

Just like the martial arts masters in the Eastern Continent, they have to go to various sects during their studies.

The superpowers in the Western Continent also have to go to major colleges to study when they practice their superpowers.

The cultural systems of the two sides seem to be different, but from the perspective of a natural disaster victim, the deeper core of the two professions is exactly the same, which is the matching of "internal skills and mental methods" and "external skills".

This is common knowledge in the hive world.

But for creatures in other worlds, it is full of strangeness.

If there is no match, the professional strength will not be worth mentioning if the internal skills, mental methods and external skills are randomly matched.

For superpowers.

Their "inner strength and mental skills" are not acquired through learning, but through various means to activate the human body's own potential, and then obtain certain attributes, similar to spiritual root qualifications, and then practice and create matching moves. .

Jack's superpower is electricity.

But unlike many people who choose the lightning mage profession, Jack's ability development direction is bioelectricity. This method can not only improve his own attributes, but also steal other people's physical strength silently and activate long-range skills.

Explain in the words of the Scourge.

This first-level boss has mastered micro-current stimulation skills, which can greatly improve his temporary attributes and absorb energy from anyone who comes into contact with him.

In some ways.

This ability of his perfectly restrained the Apocalypse.

For the Apocalypse, the process of driving machinery is a process of using one's own energy to give life to these mechanical metals, letting the energy wrap around oneself to fight.

Jack's energy absorption process was naturally very smooth.

No need to say more.

At this time, the battle between Chen Mo and Jack was exciting. Chen Mo's fighting method of relying on various energy shields to improve his survivability was also perfectly restrained by Jack's energy-absorbing attributes.

As a result, Chen Mo gradually became disadvantaged in the close combat.

"Thunder Fist!"

Jack's right hand exudes strong electric energy, constantly sending out harsh "crackling" currents, like an electric ball with a diameter of half a meter, and electric sparks are constantly exploding all around. He intends to use this skill to defend against Chen Mo's high stakes Constitution causes defense-breaking blows.

The dazzling lightning flashed as he clenched his right fist fiercely, as if he had suddenly pinched it in his hand.

Then he leaned forward sharply and swung his fist fiercely at Chen Mo. The solid electric current was like a lightsaber, shooting towards Chen Mo.

"Powerful Vajra Fist!"

Chen Mo roared similarly and faced tit for tat with his fist, which turned pale gold and blasted towards this beam of electricity.

After a brief stalemate between the two.

Everyone snorted and stepped back involuntarily. Then Chen Mo launched the puppet control technique, and in Jack's hand, there was an electric blade visible to the naked eye.

The fierce battle between the two sides lasted for several more minutes.

Whoops, whoops, whoops.

There was heavy sweat on Jack's forehead, and Chen Mo felt uncomfortable. His body was left with many scars. At the same time, his stone skin talent actually allowed him to transform into a hedgehog-like form, making Jack look solemn.

"Next, I'm going to use some real strength."

What Jack meant was that he could greatly enhance his attributes through the stimulation of active electric current.

Chen Mo couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

"Then I have to use some real strength, violent mode!"

About ten minutes later.

Chen Mo was finally defeated by Jack's efforts and stopped in the top 16. He looked "unwilling and annoyed" and watched Jack become the top 8 player in the spotlight.
