The Heartthrob Guide: Dodder of S-Class Sentinels

Chapter 50 Shadow Sentinel
After leaving behind these provocative words, Lin Nan strode away.

Ireland was so angry that he stamped his feet on the spot.

In the evening, Lin Nan and Ellie stayed together after dinner.

Ellie planned to wait for his team to finish their game and then go back with him because El's team was going to stay and watch the game at this time.

In Arena No. 8, a team composed of various spirits from the air force, land, and aquatic realms has been locked in a fierce battle. Only ten minutes remain in the one-hour competition time, but they still haven't caught a glimpse of their opponent.

El's team also only sent out one sentry. This sentry had a unique skill. He could hide his body in the shadows. He could hide wherever there were shadows, and then quietly wait for the moment when the opponent showed a flaw, and then deliver an unexpected and fatal blow.

However, the game requires kill points. No matter how hidden the opponent is, if he does not appear when the time comes, he will be judged as the loser.

The navy, army and air force teams did not dare to relax their vigilance at all. They took the best defensive posture and paid attention to the movements around them.

In fact, they had already started cursing in their hearts, hating themselves for being so unlucky to meet the pervert Merlos as soon as they appeared.

"El, what's wrong with your team's sentry? The time is almost up, why hasn't he come out yet?"

Ellie couldn't stand it any longer and asked El who was sitting alone not far away.

"What kind of spiritual body is this? It's quite strange." Lin Nan's curiosity was also aroused.

"This person's spirit form is his own shadow. I heard from my brother that he has a very special ability. Sometimes he can transform his shadow into another version of himself, and the two of them can talk back and forth."

Lin Nan: “…”

What a magical setting.

She became more and more curious and couldn't help but stare at the screen in venue 8 and watch carefully.

El ignored them, crossed his legs, and leaned casually on the chair. He put his right hand against his temple and looked indifferent from beginning to end.

It was not until he heard Lin Nan's voice that he slightly shifted his gaze from the game screen to Lin Nan's profile.

"He likes to play with his opponent's mentality. It's almost time. He should be coming out soon."

After El finished speaking, the shadow of someone on the screen really moved, and then a mysterious figure wearing a black cloak and a silver mask appeared behind the eagle sentinel. The man was very fast and kicked the sentinel out of the field with a flying kick. Then, when others reacted, he got into someone's shadow and disappeared.

After about a few seconds, he used the same method to kick several other opponents off the ring one by one.

Even if a contestant leaves the ring, he will be disqualified from the competition, and the words "El's team won" will immediately appear on the big screen.

"We should be thankful that this is an ordinary competition, otherwise Melrose would be holding his sickle." El said disdainfully.

【Wow--】

So cool!

[Like the god of death.]

[Wearing a cape, a mask, and a sickle weapon, this scene is familiar to me. This person appears in many movies made by the ancient Blue Star.]

The vines chattered and discussed as they watched.

The only thing missing from this scene is a Coke and chips in hand.

Lin Nan was very curious about how many memories they had brought out of her mind.

"Congratulations, El, your team has advanced too." Ellie said happily.

"Hmph." El snorted disdainfully, stood up and left.

"Hey, aren't you going to watch the Irish game? They're next." Ellie said anxiously when she saw El was about to leave. "Not interested."

"Then you wait for me too."

Ellie was very distressed. She wanted to take El's special car back to the dormitory, but she didn't want to leave Lin Nan behind. So she looked here and there in worry, unable to make up her mind.

"You go back first. I'll take the school's special bus back by myself."

"Nannan, be careful when you're alone at night." Ellie warned him and then got up to chase El.

Finally, Lin Nan was the only one left on the guide stand.

As expected, the guides didn’t like to stay up late, and after the time was up, many of them went back to rest.

But it's better to be alone, she can relax enough.

Her consciousness softened, and the vines under her feet, no longer restrained, began to run wild.

【I'm coming. 】

[It's obvious this team will lose.]

[Letting a turtle lead the charge? Is it because he's stubborn and can handle being beaten?]

[Oh no, the other party is a piece of stinky mud. ]

【…】

The vines stared intently at a team competing on the screen, commenting on it, and only sighed after the last contestant fell.

I said, they will lose.

[That leader looks so weak, his spirit body should be stewed and used to make soup...]

Lin Nan: ...

Amid the chattering sounds in his ears, Lin Nan finally waited for Renault's team.

Renault did not appear on the field, and they only sent three players, while the other side had five.

Compared to the other team's chaotic array of spirits, Renault's team's spirits were all cheetahs. When three cheetah spirits appeared together in the arena, the scene instantly gave people a sense of fierce and murderous aura.

The scene instantly became extremely heated. Sitting in the stands, Lin Nan could hear the cheers of the people around him.

I guess Renault's team must be very famous in Sentinel Academy.

Cheetahs are born to be masters of hunting. Their golden fur with black spots flashes with a sharp light under the spotlights in the venue, and their owners are all tall and burly, and they look like they are not easy to mess with.

From the start of the match, the three cheetahs displayed remarkable chemistry. Rather than rushing to attack, they sprinted around their opponents at high speed, their figures transforming into golden phantoms, weaving around them and raising clouds of dust that blurred the spectators' vision.

The opposing team was clearly thrown off balance by this unexpected tactic. Their spirits were diverse: the powerful brown bear, the agile monkey, the elemental bluebird, the defensive pangolin, and the supportive fox. While each possessed their strengths, they struggled to fully utilize their combined strengths against the tight cheetah encirclement.

The brown bear tried to break through the encirclement with its immense strength, roaring furiously as it charged towards a cheetah. However, the cheetah nimbly dodged the bear's attack and, taking advantage of its speed, attacked from the side before the bear could turn around. Its sharp claws left several bloody marks on the bear's body.

Seeing this, the monkey used its agility to try to break through from above. It leaped between the stone pillars in the field, trying to get past the cheetahs' encirclement. But the cheetahs seemed to have anticipated this. One of them, seizing the opportunity, leaped high, bit the monkey's tail, and pulled it down from mid-air.

In just a moment, most of the opponents were injured. The Cheetah team members looked at each other proudly, and then continued to control their spirit bodies to kill the remaining few people one by one.

In the end, Renault's team won the game.
