Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

Chapter 430 I don't need to.

"Let me see if you are really as powerful as that lady says!"

"You've already seen my lineup, and what about you? Are you planning to field some even stronger Aether Spirits to bully me, a championship contender, with sheer power?"

Giovanni laughed:

"As a champion candidate, my task is to distribute qualification badges, so the strength of the Ether Spirit naturally has to be moderate..."

"What are you two planning to do in this battle?"

In response, March 7th looked at Yan and tentatively said:

"Yan, should we bring out Schwarz and Kafka? The enemy's lineup was incredibly strong in previous versions!"

Those three big fat guys alone are very troublesome. Even the counter-attack team can't withstand the damage from the Ice Fat's charged attack.

"..."

Looking at Giovanni's provocative gaze, Yan lowered his head slightly and looked at the two coins in his hand.

It was none other than the extremely excessive amounts of Schwarzkopf and Kavka.

So here's the question: should we use it here?

Just dealing with a championship contender?

However, the strength of the Aether Spirits that Giovanni used far exceeded that of ordinary player lineups.

If Schwarzkopf and Kafka weren't used, the outcome would be very difficult to predict.

"Giovanni, you know what we have, right?"

Yan Huan looked up and sneered:

"You think that the two of us can't beat you without those two coins?"

"Hehe, Ms. Yan Huan truly has an excellent eye for talent." Giovanni smiled slightly.

"But so what? I admit that when other players challenge me, I won't field such a strong lineup."

"You are an exception."

"Faced with such an enemy, what choices would you two make?"

"Actually, I can predict that if I used your two top-tier Aether coins, I would definitely fail..."

"Alright, so you mean if those two don't play, we're guaranteed to lose, right?"

Under the shocked gaze of March 7th, Yan slowly put away the two Boss coins.

He said in a deep voice:

"In other words, if we don't crush them with overwhelming force, we're nothing, right?"

Giovanni seemed somewhat surprised; this nameless guest had been far too blunt in his words.

He had a vague feeling about it.

"Ms. Yan Huan... what do you mean by this?" Giovanni frowned.

"You've only been playing Etherfront for a few days, so it's normal that you're not as familiar with Ether Spirits or as good at team composition as I am."

"Giving up your trump card in order to have a fair fight with me is not a good option."

Even March 7th was uncertain:

"Yan, calm down... He's not only a sponsor, but also a veteran player! We've only been playing for a few days... Let's just use power-up cards to crush him."

"Heh... When playing games, what's the point of winning or losing on the surface?"

When Yan spoke again, he had already produced a handful of Ethereum coins in his hand.

"Giovanni, you've been bothering us since the beginning, and I knew you were planning a big push at the end..."

"But don't underestimate my understanding of the game..."

In an instant, fifteen more ethereal spirits were summoned.

Giovanni frowned deeply. He did not see the two Aether Spirits he expected, and the strongest of them was only a Overlord-level being.

"Heh...what audacity."

Giovanni clapped his hands gently and said in a moment of realization:

“Ms. Yan Huan, I once thought you were a frivolous person who relied on your own strength to do whatever you wanted.”

"But throughout this competition, you've never used any power outside the rules in your matches against other players..."

"Even when facing a veteran player like me, they have the guts to have a real player-versus-player showdown!"

"Truly a hero..."

"Since that's the case, then let me see your strength!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Giovanni's first batch of ethereal spirits was immediately deployed.

The Iron Guard officer stood in the center, holding a large shield, followed by two defensive Aether Spirits and two healing Aether Spirits.

Yan Huan's gaze sharpened. Without even thinking, she knew that Giovanni had equipped all five Ether Spirits with expansion chips that increased their health and defense.

Immediately, he also commanded his own etheric spirit to enter the arena.

A female ethereal spirit, holding a scepter and with her eyes obscured by ribbons, stood in the center of the formation.

It was none other than Cheng Lu, a hegemon-level ethereal spirit whose appearance resembled that of the demonic being transformed from Dan Shu.

Its special ability is to reduce the maximum health of all enemies by 30%!

"..." Giovanni frowned slightly. His team's defensive formation was not enough to resist the special abilities of the Cheng Lu people.

His healing Aether... lacks crowd control removal abilities.

"Hehe, Ms. Yan Huan..."

Giovanni stared at the Luminous Beast and said in a deep voice, "Even if you deploy the Luminous Beast and reduce our maximum health by 30%, my lineup's tankiness remains, and its defense will not be weakened."

But when Giovanni saw Yan Huan use Ether Spirit next, he immediately lost his composure.

A golden automaton slowly emerged from beside the Heavenly Man.

Giovanni also has this golden statue, which is placed in the second team.

Next up was a speed-boosting Ether Spirit, a Bountiful Lotus that could deduct combat skill points, and a... Void Soldier. Trampler.

"..."

When Giovanni saw Cheng Lu Ren appear, he already knew that Yan Huan would use the powerful offensive form, Ether Spirit.

Unexpectedly, two more pull-up noodles were brought along.

"Ms. Yan Huan, you seem to have a particular fondness for Aether Spirits that can increase their movement speed?" Giovanni teased.

"In turn-based games, manipulating the turn meter is extremely important," Yan Huan said with a smile.

"Giovanni, want to guess what chip I put on the Void Soldier Trampler?"

"..." Giovanni's gaze was solemn.

Clearly, the Void Soldier Trampler is the core of Yan Huan's lineup.

Therefore, the expansion chip it carries is most likely used to amplify damage.

"Trying to wipe out my ordinary ethereal spirits first? Heh..."

"pity."

Amid Giovanni's laughter, the healing Aethers in his lineup took the lead.

It was a mechanical creature that looked somewhat like a Pixiu, with Giovanni having stacked its health to 3. It roared, and the gaze of the Void Soldier Trampler fixed on it.

Healing Aether then used a normal attack on the Void Soldier Trampler, restoring one combat skill point.

"Oh? There's also a mocking chip?" Yan Huan raised an eyebrow.

“That’s right.” Giovanni crossed his arms and laughed.

"I've added health and taunt to this healing Aether Spirit using an expansion chip. The Iron Guard officer will then put a shield on it, and the outcome will be decided!"

Seeing this, March 7th couldn't help but feel anxious.

The Void Soldier, Trampler, is supposed to be the main damage dealer, but he was the first one to be controlled!

"But... my ultimate skill is an area-of-effect attack." With that, Void Soldier Trampler suddenly stepped forward and stomped on Giovanni's formation.

"He used a chip that increases the energy of his ultimate skill at the start of the game!" In an instant, all of Giovanni's ethereal spirits lost about 1000 health.

Upon seeing this, the latter's pupils suddenly dilated.

Why is the damage so low?

Chapter 431 What can you do to me if I don't have combat skill points?

The Void Soldier, the Trampler, is universally recognized as a top-tier damage dealer, consistently ranking high on the damage output charts.

But now, a powerful attack only deals 1000 damage?

It only took down one-thirtieth of the damage from that support Ether Spirit!

Giovanni didn't think his lineup's defense was too outstanding, after all, the two defensive Aether Spirits hadn't even started applying buffs yet.

"Wait, something's not right!" Suddenly, Giovanni's pupils dilated as he looked at his ethereal state.

At this point, they were all subjected to negative effects.

First, reduce defense; second, reduce speed.

"What?! Your Void Soldier: Trample is actually used to apply debuffs?!"

With everyone's speed reduced, the next move was surprisingly Yan Huan's Ether Spirit.
