Chapter 53: Technique to Brush Happiness Value (Limited Battle Maniac)
Carrying a sense of humiliation, she changed her pants, wiped off the disguise on her face, and Merad returned to the Main Venue.
However, she was no longer in the Player Area, but in the Audience Seats.
She wanted to see what kind of fight the guy who reminded her and the guy who acted out against her would have.
Halftime break, eat what should be eaten, drink what should be drunk, consume what should be consumed.
In the afternoon, the semifinals of the second half would begin.
"Semifinals first match, Esdeath of the Galapa Chamber of Commerce versus Broly of the Jitu Chamber of Commerce……"
After the routine ad implantation, the host Referee left suspense and shouted loudly: "Who exactly can advance to the finals? Let's wait and see."
"Does what you said yesterday still count?"
Broly asked.
After he participated in the match, he had encountered two deceptions, making him somewhat worried.
"Which one?"
Esdeath stretched her body, crossed her hands behind her back and stretched upward, raised her head and asked.
"The one where if I beat you, you'll be friends with me and willing to be My Wife."
Broly said.
"Of course it counts, I never lie."
Esdeath nodded.
Hearing this, Broly felt relieved, fearing that if he beat the girl, the other side wouldn't acknowledge it.
"Aren't you going to stretch your body?"
Esdeath asked.
"Why?"
Broly was somewhat confused.
"If you don't warm up, your movements will be slow."
Esdeath explained a sentence to him.
"Don't worry, my speed is very fast."
Regarding this, Broly was very confident; in order to speed up Crystal Palace's charging, his movement speed was the strongest item among his comprehensive qualities.
"I won't hold back."
Esdeath reminded him again.
"No need to hold back, just come however you like."
Broly glanced at the prompt displayed by Crystal Palace【Esdes Happiness Value is continuing to rise】, and happily said this to Esdeath.
"However I like……"
Esdeath laughed, she didn't know if Broly was arrogant, but her fighting spirit was indeed rising.
"Match, start!"
As the host Referee's words fell, Esdeath's figure went from still to moving, in the blink of an eye crossing over ten meters of distance to the boy's front, swinging a fist toward the boy's right side face.
And Broly, just as he had said, reacted and easily blocked her fist, but did not put on another performance of being unable to resist.
The battle entered white-hot from the very beginning; Esdeath had no intention of holding back, and launched a full-force attack right after the fight started.
Her attacks were not only fast, but also astonishing in power; if others were a gentle breeze and fine rain, then she was a storm.
Of course, whether it was a gentle breeze and fine rain or a storm's offensive, it made no great difference to Broly, because the gap in physical basic qualities was too great; no Breakdown meant no Breakdown.
Even, Broly worried that hard resistance might cause Esdeath to harm herself, so he tried his best not to engage in a strength confrontation with the other side.
And this created a strange scene; under Esdeath's storm-like attacks, Broly swayed like willow catkins.
"Force Dissipation, a Force Dissipation of extremely high purity; Broly actually used the extreme Force Dissipation technique; Esdeath's storm-like attacks seem to have no effect on him."
"Broly blocked all the attacks; he was completely unharmed, ah, but how is this possible, could it be……"
The host Referee's voice trembled, voicing the thoughts of all the spectators seeing the fierce offensive and defensive battle in the Field.
"Could it be that Broly has been hiding his strength all along, only forced to reveal his true strength after meeting a powerful player like Esdeath?!"
Now, the scene happening on the Ring seemed to have only this explanation.
Esdeath's offensive, after continuing for more than ten minutes, gradually weakened.
After all, she was still a person, and moreover a twelve-year-old girl not yet fully developed.
Even though her Vitality was astonishing, under the situation of full-force attacks for more than ten minutes, she still felt tired.
"Is our gap really that big?"
Before exchanging blows, Esdeath thought Broly was an opponent worth fighting, but after exchanging blows, Broly's perfect defense made her feel like facing a thick ice wall.
No matter how she attacked, she couldn't break in; her attacks couldn't cause the boy half an injury. Of course, this refers to real injuries.
How to make a genius feel frustrated? Very simple; just let her meet a guy who is even more of a genius.
Esdeath now fell into this situation of meeting an even more genius guy and thus feeling defeated.
This was the first time in her twelve years of life that she experienced the gap between people; the boy's strength was far too much stronger than hers.
This kind of invincible strength even made Esdeath, who launched the storm-like attacks, feel a sense of powerlessness in her heart.
【Esdes Happiness Value is decreasing】
However, although Esdeath's fist and foot attacks indeed had no effect on Broly, her originally rising Happiness Value suddenly dropping caused Broly great harm.
Watching Esdeath's falling Happiness Value, Broly became somewhat anxious; he hurriedly looked at Esdeath, met a pair of somewhat desolate eyes, and immediately came to a realization.
Not long ago (before three years old), he also felt sad because he couldn't beat his father; he immediately said: "No, our gap isn't that big; I'm actually already injured."
"You're lying again; my attacks just now didn't even make you move your foot."
Esdeath obviously didn't believe his words; Broly really wanted to vomit blood to prove it, but the Exploding Juice Gummy used for vomiting blood had already been shared with the other side before.
After thinking it over, Broly came up with a quick idea; he secretly crushed the ring ground beneath his feet, then gathered Qi in his hand to emit some green light, and raised his hand to Esdeath, saying: "I didn't deceive you, look, is my hand somewhat bruised? That was caused by blocking your attack."
Under the bright sunlight, Esdeath actually saw a touch of blue-green on Broly's hand, but before she could see clearly, Broly directly withdrew his hand, not letting her look.
Then, Broly pointed at the ground beneath his feet: "As for me not moving, that's because you're too powerful; under your attack just now, my feet sank into the ground, so it's not that I don't want to move, but that I can't move."
Esdeath looked at the pair of foot pits that appeared on the ring after Broly lifted his foot, and for a moment doubted whether it really was because she was too powerful that the opponent couldn't move? "The personal and physical evidence are both present; do you still want to doubt your own strength?"
Broly loudly questioned.
【Eliminate the impossible factors, and what remains, no matter how unwilling you are to believe it, is the truth of the facts.】
At this moment, what surfaced in Broly's mind was precisely the famous quote from Chapter 1 of "The Sign of Four" in "The Sherlock Holmes Case Files".
Esdeath was stunned; yes, did she still need to doubt her own strength? Clearly she had hunted so many Danger Beasts, clearly after her parents and clan died, she had still survived tenaciously.
In this cruel world, the strong survive; she who was able to survive should not be weak; she had to believe in her own strength.
But...
Looking at the boy cheering her on, making her believe in herself, why did this feeling feel so strange, just like being deceived by someone.
"Just now it was all me attacking, you defending; this time it's your turn to attack, I'll defend."
"Come, Broly, if you want to obtain me, then attack with all your might."
Esdeath wasn't so easily deceived; she decided to verify the strength gap between them by defending against the boy's attack.
"This..."
Broly was a bit troubled; if he really attacked with full force, the wife on the other side would be gone, not even slag remaining.
After thinking it over, Broly decided to tell a lie; worst case he would kowtow and apologize afterwards.
"Since that's the case, then it's my turn to attack with full force; are you ready?"
Broly recalled the full-power performance of a certain kindhearted Fuyuki City citizen in the Type-Moon World, and displayed the same performance.
After Esdeath nodded, Broly rushed over; his speed was very fast, but he was obviously paying attention to the girl's reaction.
Only after confirming Esdeath could react did he throw a punch, then it was blocked by Esdeath; he controlled the force well, pressed the opponent's hand to the side of her face, then withdrew.
Broly didn't give Esdeath much time to react; he swiftly changed moves and kicked toward her abdomen, again with similar micro-management; Esdeath began to struggle to defend under his swift attacks.
"Too astonishing; after Contestant Broly displayed exquisite force dissipation technique, he now displays a terrifying speed offensive; under his offensive, Contestant Esdeath has already fallen into a huge disadvantage..."
【Esdeath's Happiness Value is rising】
After defending against Broly's attacks, Esdeath's originally declining Happiness Value rebounded and surged upward.
While controlling the striking rhythm, Broly paid attention to Esdeath's Happiness Value growth situation, and adjusted his own offensive rhythm at any time according to the Happiness Value growth situation.
Then, Broly discovered the technique for brushing Esdeath's Happiness Value; the more dangerous the attack, the more it could make Esdeath's Happiness Value rise, while the easier attacks to defend against instead made the Happiness Value somewhat unable to rise.
After discovering this point, Broly's attack method changed again; he used clever strength to kick Esdeath flying out, the next moment leaping high and stepping down toward the position where the girl fell.
Esdeath hurriedly rolled to dodge; Broly had no intention of pursuing, directly stomping empty air.
Suddenly, a deafening boom rang out beneath his foot; Broly crushed the ring ground, sending rubble flying, creating a deep pit.
Esdeath climbed up, looking at the deep pit that appeared on the ground over there; her heart pounded violently while fine beads of sweat emerged on her forehead.
Dodging an extremely dangerous attack concentrated her spirit to the extreme, adrenaline burst forth, her body trembling.
But Esdeath's current state was about the same as those ordinary people experiencing a giant swing or bungee jumping; Happiness Value skyrocketing rapidly!
She recalled childhood when her father took her to hunt on the ice field, once encountering a Super Danger Beast that stirred up a blizzard.
The current situation was somewhat similar to that time; both gave her a feeling of insignificance, and the sense of danger lingering around her made her very excited; it seemed she was born a person who liked dangerous and exciting things.
