Uma Musume, do I have to tell you that I know how to use the Santa Hat special move?

but……

(That’s all it ends here.)

[The so-called willing person takes the bait, in fact, it is not that complicated at all~]

The voice of Qingyun Tiankong's explanation to him seemed to ring in his ears again. The stardust illusion's eyes were gradually covered by a bright white light, and a loud thunder in the blue sky suddenly exploded before his eyes.

The shadow of the runner who was always running at the front of the track, whom even he could not easily surpass, suddenly appeared, and the runner in Christmas clothes, Chestnut Hat, stood on the left and right, accompanied by the illusion of stardust. The three of them ran side by side on the Avenue of Stars and ran forward.

The mirror's heart was clear, reflecting the images of the two runners on the Stardust Illusion itself...

[Take control of the rhythm of the game, accumulate strength and look for opportunities... Finally, step on the moment when your opponent is in the most pain, and rush forward~]

(Accumulate strength, look for opportunities...)

boom! Bang bang bang bang!

With every step he took, he used more force than the previous one. Stardust Illusion no longer held back, squandering all of the strength that had been building up from the start of the game, building up his momentum and climbing to ever higher peaks.

Two shadows, one green and one reed, gradually moved closer to the girl running in the middle. The three movements were synchronized and gradually merged into one.

……

Stardust Illusion knows better than anyone how determined the emperor is to defeat him today.

The special main task Blue Rose brought by the system has led her to fully understand the mentality of the East China Sea Emperor before the game. Naturally, she knows that at the Gaoyue Award, the East China Sea Emperor used a high-spirited performance to completely cover up his inner resentment and anger.

This feeling, which was considered humiliating to her, was constantly nurtured and nourished during this month.

Every time she trained and simulated running in front of the president, she felt like she was trampling on her dignity as the symbolic successor of Rudolph.

However, the Emperor of the East China Sea never showed any of these feelings during this month. It can be said that only in the contestant channel before the start of the game did she no longer have to suppress her complicated emotions.

Victory is definitely not just an honor for the emperor, it is also her mission as a horse girl and a battle that she must fight as the emperor of the East China Sea.

Yes, this is a battle where only one contestant can survive.

This is not only true for the Emperor of the East China Sea, but also for myself... and the Stardust Illusion!

(Emperor, you must follow me this time.)

When the stardust illusion came to this point, there was no more confusion or hesitation.

Calm your mind... concentrate!

[Inherent skill angling×scheming, activated! ]

boom!

The first cast of the competition is harvested at this moment.

The true meaning of Qingyun Tiankong, called "the willing ones take the bait", the strongest running method that every great escaper dreams of, is revealed at this moment!!!

The dark clouds were completely dispersed with one step, and above the endless blue sky, a loud thunder suddenly exploded in everyone's ears!

[It has appeared! The most powerful and exciting final kick of Stardust Illusion has finally begun to exert its power! ! ! ]

The heavy rain stopped at this moment, and the host's shocking shouts at the Tokyo Racecourse echoed in everyone's ears.

[So fast, so fast, so fast, so fast, so fast! The Stardust Illusion left the Emperor of the East China Sea behind in the blink of an eye! Is he going to break out! Is he going to break out! ! ! ! ! ]

Watching the Stardust Illusion suddenly change its running posture and instantly widen the gap that had almost disappeared, the host was so excited that he shouted at the top of his lungs and could only desperately hold the microphone in front of him:

[These last three waves are simply the ultimate God of Destruction!!! Stardust Illusion, Stardust Illusion begins to accelerate forward! This Overlord who controls the wind and thunder declares that he will never give up the scenery ahead!!!]

[Can you still catch up?! The second Emperor of the East Sea! Can you still catch up?!?!]

"Don't be...kidding!!!"

Seeing the stardust illusion disappearing in front of him and turning into blue thunder, the gap was widened again.

The Emperor of the East China Sea gritted his teeth and tried his best to catch up, but found that his speed could not shorten the gap that seemed so close yet so far away.

The wind was as cold as an ice knife, the taste of rust came from the entire mouth and throat, and the chest was torn apart with every breath. This was the ultimate meaning of fighting with everything.

The bones all over his body creaked as if he couldn't bear the weight, every inch of muscle in his body was groaning, and the legs that supported him felt a tearing pain like a knife.

No matter how hard I strained my legs and feet, and forced myself to move forward, I still couldn't narrow the gap...

The runner in front of her, the horse girl known as the Overlord by everyone, now rose from the ground in the eyes of the emperor, transformed into the Dharmakaya of heaven and earth and came directly towards her to suppress her.

[Kneel down! Submit to me! ! ! ]

I seemed to hear a deafening scolding in my ears, which was a declaration forcing me to surrender.

but……

How is it possible, how can we admit it, how can we allow it!!!

The eyes of the Emperor of the East Sea were wide open, bloodshot all over the eyeballs, and the lower lip was bitten directly, bleeding all over. The blood poured into her mouth, providing her with the final power -

I can't admit defeat here, I can't surrender to the stardust illusion here...

I have reasons why I cannot fail no matter what, and destiny is also beckoning to me, the Emperor of the East China Sea!

I am the enemy of Stardust Illusion!

I am the unyielding Phoenix!

I, I I I I—

"I'm……"

“The! East! Sea! Emperor! King! Aa ...

Squat down, accumulate strength, and jump up!

Above the infinite sky, the star named Spica suddenly trembled.

The fate star that shed its starlight on the Emperor of the East China Sea and guided her to the finish line seemed to have sensed the tragedy that was about to happen.

In order to stop the girl from committing a self-destructive act, it had to release its own starlight to the maximum extent, shining down from the sky to add the final boost to the Emperor of the East China Sea.

Under the shining of the stars, the Hellfire that had been almost completely extinguished by the wind and thunder rose up again. The arrogant Phoenix Warrior of Destruction lurked in the shadows and pushed the Emperor of the East China Sea to the other side!

The emperor's body was burning with the last flames, and his courage and indomitable spirit echoed in her heart. This step was a declaration that she would never yield to the tyrant.

(Take off that shine.)

At this moment, the emperor's vision had begun to darken, and this last thought was the only one left in his mind.

This is the last and only moment when the emperor truly shines after turning himself into firewood!!!

[The Emperor also accelerated! The Emperor also rushed forward! The Emperor of the East China Sea and the Stardust Illusion! The two contestants who fought desperately passed the final bend one after another, and only the straight line was left! ! ! ! ]

[Next is the final hurdle of the race, a full 150m uphill run on the final straight! How will the exhausted runners decide the outcome? ! ]

[Who is who is who!!! In the last 525m straight line of Tokyo Racecourse, will the Emperor of the East Sea still have time to catch up? Or will the Stardust Illusion be able to leave the others in the dust!!!]

There’s still time. There’s still time. There’s still time. There’s still time. There’s still time.

Must be in time!!!

The Emperor of the East China Sea stared at the figure in front of her with empty eyes. She was almost losing consciousness due to the torture of pain. She could only let her body go by instinct and try to shorten the gap with the opponent.

No longer able to care about any other problems, the Emperor of the East China Sea, who was burning himself with passion, had only one obsession left in his heart!

The moment she stepped into the final straight line, the girl suddenly squatted down.

At this moment, put the last glimmer of hope for victory on the line.

[Skill final sprint has been activated! ]

His face was hideous, blood was oozing from the corners of his mouth, and the girl's footsteps made an instant discordant note.

Click.

This sound was instantly transmitted through the bones into the emperor's mind, but...

I can’t take care of it!

It's not the time to think about these things!!!

(It doesn’t matter if I die here. If every horse girl has her own shining moment… then the emperor was definitely born for this moment!!!)

The sound of the strong wind beside my ears turned into a shrill explosion at this moment. This is an abnormality that can only be felt when running after completely breaking the sound barrier.

The figure of Stardust Phantom, who had been escaping for the entire game, was still ahead of him. Has the gap between him and the opponent been shortened?

Don't worry about that kind of boring stuff.

The feeling of failure that she had once experienced tortured the Emperor of the East China Sea for a whole month, and she never wanted to experience that feeling again.

With all your heart, soul and whole body.

Beyond everyone's imagination, let me, the Emperor of the East China Sea, shape today's legend.

All the pain that the emperor had ever experienced would only make him stronger today, becoming... unprecedentedly powerful.

Right here on this final straight line, right here on this uphill slope.

The emperor was able to burn himself out on this final straight line and defeat the stardust illusion before him.

--no.

Click.

A sound that is clearer and louder than before.

The moment the girl followed the stardust illusion and took a strong step up the hill.

Suddenly, the girl realized an irreversible situation.

Coming from inside the body was the sound of something breaking.

What followed was a feeling of something extremely fragile, shattering in an instant because it could not withstand the pressure.

Is it...painful now?

The East China Sea Emperor's blank mind was unable to even sense his limbs and could only make subconscious guesses.

The sudden feeling of weightlessness came from the right leg that had just taken a step forward. The Emperor of the East China Sea was a little slow to realize what had happened, and immediately adjusted his position to try to stabilize himself.

The running posture of her entire body was completely destroyed in an instant. She lowered her head in an extremely ugly posture, looking at her legs in disbelief.

Immediately afterwards, fragmented music accompanied by unspeakable pain came one after another, instantly sweeping away the dopamine that had originally filled the mind.

The feeling of disharmony coming from his right leg forced the Emperor of the East China Sea to slow down even though he had managed to stand still and not fall down.

Urgent desire drove her to endure the pain and take another step forward... But the moment her center of gravity shifted to her right foot, the feeling of pain and swelling instantly filled her entire brain.

Step...on nothing?

I have clearly worked hard to the final stage of the struggle, but something like this happened at this time?

Do not make jokes……

Stop kidding! The emperor wouldn't care about such a minor injury.

He gritted his teeth and forced himself to move forward again, but his body resisted this command.

Chapter 291 (42.5) (5k) Stardust Illusion is the Strongest

The strong wind blew on his face. Even though the heavy rain had stopped, it was still freezing cold. However, what was even more freezing at this moment was the fact facing the Emperor of the East China Sea.

Her ankle was broken, which meant...she had completely lost the possibility of continuing to win.

In this final, fastest and strongest contest, the Emperor of the East China Sea understood that she herself was a challenger weaker than the Stardust Illusion, so from the very beginning she made up her mind to break through herself in this game and move to a whole new realm.

With this, as a real possibility to defeat the stardust illusion.

However... even if his body is in good condition, he still has to rely on the possibility of a breakthrough in battle. So what can the emperor do now when he can hardly even stand firmly?

The girl's eyes were filled with burning fighting spirit, and there was no sign of cessation as she stared intently at the straight line in front of her. The uphill slope before her had turned into a chasm, blocking her from the finish line.

(Did I fail...?)

Almost at the moment when he finally realized what was happening, everything on the surrounding field turned completely into darkness, and the immortal flame of hell was completely extinguished at this moment.

The Emperor of the East Sea wanted to break free, but she couldn't move her legs. The pain spreading from her right ankle became a shackle that held her in place...

"——!!!"

A scream of despair and pain almost came out of the girl's mouth. It was not because of the pain, but because she realized the situation she was facing at the moment.
