Chapter 339 - 339 Taking the Initiative to Attack!
339 Taking the Initiative to Attack!
“Interesting. Kyoto is taking the lead in attacking.”
“That’s rare. Kyoto’s desire to attack is strong this time.”
“Are they that confident?”
…
The typically calm and steady Team Kyoto had taken the lead in attacking, which surprised the audience members. Simultaneously, the judges and the university presidents were equally surprised.
“The match has just started, and Kyoto has already launched an attack. They’re too hasty.”
“Yeah, there’s an hour of competition time. Why does Kyoto have to be like this?”
“Easy. Kyoto wants to win this match.”
“If they win this match, they’ll be in the top four. Even if they lose to the host team, it’s reasonable since Kyoto has so many first-year students this year.”
“Military University came prepared and is on guard against Bishop, Moss, and the others. Kyoto might have to pay for their rashness.”
…
Some judges and presidents expressed their opinions on Kyoto’s impulsiveness. They were even more surprised when they saw the ones leading the charge were Moss, Bishop, and Nat.
“Moss, Bishop, and Nat rushed up first. What’s with that?”
“Moss and Nat are rookies, so I understand their eagerness to win, but Bishop is a veteran. Why are they so impulsive?”
“Yes, and the other side has a 2-3-5 defensive formation. Military University is obviously on guard against the skill Moss used in the previous match. It’ll be tough for Kyoto to repeat the same trick twice.”
“Military University is already on high alert. Look, Kyoto is going to have a hard time.”
…
Many presidents, deans, and judges thought Kyoto would pay for their rashness.
Meanwhile, the audience members who supported Military University felt that the match had already ended with their favored team as the victor. Even Kyoto’s supporters broke out in cold sweat as a shadow loomed over their hearts.
…
Ten minutes before Kyoto initiated the attack, Moss noticed Military University’s defensive formation and contacted Bishop through the earpiece, “Captain Bishop, since they’re in a defensive formation, why don’t we attack first and catch them off guard?”
Bishop asked, “How do you want to fight?”
Moss responded, “The two-pronged approach. Captain, Nat, let’s attack the two in the front row. The rest of you attack the middle row and try to block the third row’s reinforcements.
“I will use Absolute Defense if they retaliate and focus their attacks on me. Lila and Charlie will be at the back and use their shields to reflect our opponent’s attacks.
“If they don’t focus their attacks on me, their back row can also attack me when I use Absolute Defense. If so, I can focus my energy on them to catch them off guard.”
Moss paused briefly before adding, “Their captain, Andre, is in the first row. Military University will suffer a heavy blow if we can take him down. Without the team’s soul, Military University will lose sooner rather than later.
“Even if we can’t eliminate Andre, we can at least deal with one or two of their second-year main forces and weaken their combat power.”
“What does everyone think?” Bishop asked.
“Perfect.”
“Excellent.”
The other team members’ replies resounded in the party’s earpieces.
After hearing his team members’ responses, Captain Bishop was excited and immediately decided, “It’s unexpected, perfect. Then we’ll catch Military University off guard.”
…
Moss summoned a shield for himself, Bishop, and Nat. The trio was the first to charge out of the formation.
Under Captain Bishop’s buffs, the trio was as fast as lightning. At full speed, they launched an attack on the first row where Andre was. Behind the trio, Gavin led the others to attack Military University’s middle and back rows.
This sudden change surprised Military University. They did not expect Kyoto to launch an all-out attack as soon as the whistle sounded.
Indeed, Andre was a veteran, a professional who had been in battle for a long time. Although shocked, he quickly calmed down and conveyed to the team, “Kyoto has made a dangerous move, but we don’t need to panic.
“Those in the middle row merge with the first row to stabilize Bishop and the other two’s attacks. Albert, you lead the backline to handle Moss. Do a good job of defense and enhancement. If there’s an opportunity, eliminate Moss first.
“Pay close attention to Moss’s skills and the movements of the few people behind him, especially the members within a 120-degree radius of him. You must be on guard at all times.”
Andre wanted to say a few more words, but Moss, Bishop, and Nat were too fast. They had already launched an attack on him and his teammates.
Andre did not hesitate. As a Lightning Holy Swordsman, he immediately launched a Sacred Lightning Slash at Moss and the other two.
Sacred Lightning Slash was a Lightning Holy Swordsman’s ultimate skill. It would attack in three directions simultaneously, and the energy waves had lightning attributes.
Once hit by the sword’s lightning, one would suffer double damage from the slash and lightning. This skill was Sacred Lightning Slash, but it could also be two skills.
Sword energy, with lightning attributes and long-ranged lightning, was overbearing. That was also why Military University had paid an enormous price to get Andre’s recognition, who was firmly in the top 3.
Crack!
Before Andre could get hit, the aura from his Sacred Lightning Slash had already struck Moss, Bishop, and Nat with thunder and lightning exploding in the air.
However, he was shocked when the trio resolved his Sacred Lightning Slash with their shields, even though he had used almost all his might. The trio continued pushing forward as if nothing had happened.
“How is that possible? Even without using Absolute Defense, Moss received my lightning slash. Furthermore, he wasn’t even affected by the lightning attribute.”
Although there were noticeable cracks on the shield, it did not break.
“Moss’s defense is simply too formidable!” Andre was stunned but did not have time to think. He quickly retreated and met with his team members in the middle row.
“Holy Blade!”
“Positive and negative buff!”
“Dragon Breath!”
Moss, Bishop, and Nat seized the opportunity and launched a full-force attack on the retreating Andre and his teammates.
...
The moment Moss launched his attack, his lips moved as he spoke into his earpiece. After hearing Moss’s words, the entire team became even more excited and launched an all-out attack.
