Chapter 91 - Seahorse’s Strength
Chapter 91: Seahorse’s Strength
“Congratulations to Fang Yuan for winning the first round.”
Following that, the pet herd let out a wave of enthusiastic cheers. The mermaid lady then left the competition field with tears in her eyes.
The second round was a competition of diving.
“As a water-type pet, its control over water is naturally as clear as fire. Apart from swimming, the second event is to test the coordination of the pet at the moment it enters the water!”
“Next, let’s welcome our second contestant — the Miao Bu Worm!”
“Roar!”
The audience let out earth-shaking shouts. Following that, Fang Yuan saw an earthworm that was two meters long walk in from the entrance.
Shuiwen continued to introduce, “As everyone knows, the world of the ocean is dominated by fish-type pet beasts. But when it comes to diving, I’m afraid no one would have thought that the real king is a creature from the ground — an earthworm-type pet beast. The two-consecutive-year champion, Miao Bu Worm, will accept Fang Yuan’s challenge as the ring master this time. So, Fang Yuan, which pet will you send for the competition?”
Fang Yuan pointed at the ice sea horse, indicating that he would not change his pet.
“Okay, then are you all clear about the rules of diving? The moment you touch the water, the smaller the splash, the better the coordination of the body, or the strongest ability! Are you all ready?”
The earthworm shrunk its body, looking extremely disgusting. If it wasn’t wearing a pair of sweatpants, Fang Yuan would have thought it was some strange creature.
But to be honest, saying the earthworm was the champion of diving, Fang Yuan could only think of one of his father’s favorite activities, which was fishing.
And the bait for fishing was the earthworm.
It was indeed possible to say that it was the champion of diving.
First, the earthworm walked up the 10-meter platform, shook its head, and then curled its body into an OK shape.
The referee crab pressed the starting gun, and with a “pa” sound, the earthworm immediately shrunk itself into a ball, and it became especially small.
When it fell into the water, it was like a small stone falling into the water, and one could hardly see the water splash with the naked eye.
“The Miao Bu Worm has activated two special skills at the same time. One of which is to reduce its weight significantly, just like its name, as light as a piece of cloth. During the fall, it used the curl skill to reduce itself to the size of a fist. Such a pet beast is very effective in exploration and detection. In diving, it can be said to be invincible.”
The three judges, all wearing glasses, looked at each other. Then, they lit up their scoreboards almost at the same time.
10 points, 10 points, 10 points!
“Oh my God, the Miao Bu Worm has broken its own record again. It got a full 10 points on the first jump. So, do you still want to challenge the second jump?”
The earthworm climbed up from the water and shook its head. It obviously meant that it was satisfied and would not jump again.
“The opponent has obtained a full score. Contestant Fang Yuan, do you still want to continue the challenge?” Shuiwen explained the competition while looking at Fang Yuan.
“Why not? Xiao Bing, you go up.” Fang Yuan commanded Xiao Bing, and it reluctantly walked up the platform and looked down.
“Wait a minute, I want to challenge the 20-meter platform.” After Xiao Bing walked up the platform, Fang Yuan said to Shuiwen. “If I choose the 20-meter platform and I get a full score, is it higher than the full score of the 10-meter platform?”
“Well, I’ll discuss it with the referee.”
Then, Shuiwen and the three crabs formed a circle and whispered to each other, “Okay, sure.”
After a short discussion, the referee agreed to Fang Yuan’s request to increase the difficulty.
The platform also directly rose to a height of 20 meters.
Shuiwen said, “I know that your seahorse has the ability to freeze water, but at this height, if it freezes the water surface, it may be seriously injured or even die if it falls down. If the player dies, it will be directly judged to be 0 points. Don’t think of using such a trick to get away with it.”
He acted as if he had seen through Fang Yuan’s mind.
Fang Yuan said, “How could it be? It’s my only water-type pet beast. How could I let it die here? Not only will it not die, it will also use the most beautiful posture to complete the match,” Fang Yuan replied.
At this time, Xiao Bing was already prepared to jump down.
Fang Yuan directed Xiao Bing with his mind and said, “Xiao Bing, don’t be afraid. The static lag skill requires about 1.5 seconds to accumulate power, so I chose the 20-meter platform for you.”
Xiao Bing looked at Fang Yuan in confusion, as if asking him why he could calculate the time.
He did not answer this question, because Fang Yuan was also betting that the gravitational acceleration in this world was the same as in his previous life. If it was slightly faster, he would at most lose the competition, and the seahorse would not fall to its death or drown in the water.
Seeing that Fang Yuan did not explain, Xiao Bing was too lazy to pursue the matter and began to prepare the static lag skill.
“Bang!”
The moment the starting gun fired, Xiao Bing jumped off the diving platform.
Seeing that it was like a cannonball rushing to the surface of the water, the audience burst into laughter. Earthworm was sitting on a beach chair with its legs crossed.
The moment it touched the surface of the water, the splashing scene that people had imagined did not appear.
It was as if Xiao Bing had melted into the surface of the water, let alone splashing water! There was not even a ripple!
When the judges saw this scene, all of them raised their 10 points. There was no greater diving performance than this!
Even Shuiwen admitted defeat. He asked Fang Yuan, “How did your iced seahorse do all this?”
Actually, the moment it touched the surface of the water, the seahorse activated its stasis ability. The stasis ability was very useless in actual combat, because it could only maintain its own state of stasis for about a second. Then, in the next second, it would gradually return to its original speed.
According to the rules, it was Fang Yuan who won.
Shuiwen sent a [ earthworm feces ] to Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan initially did not want to accept it, thinking that how could he win a competition and get a pile of feces as a reward.
However, Shuiwen told him that [ earthworm feces ] was an important nutrient for earth-type pets, especially plant-type pets. After consuming it, there might be unexpected effects.
The moment he came into contact with [ earthworm feces ] , the 100 times increase system was activated.
[ Ding! Earthworm feces detected. Grade: Gold low grade ]
[ Do you wish to receive a 100 times increase? ]
[ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ]
[ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain a gold low grade earthworm feces. ]
[ Second, receive 100 times increase in quality and obtain a gold high grade earthworm feces. ]
[ Third, receive 100 times increase in effect and obtain a gold low grade earthworm feces. After use, the critical strike times of plant-type pet beasts will increase to 300% . ]
Wow, so this thing can increase the critical strike times of pet beasts in battle. It was just that different grades of [ earthworm feces ] would have different duration.
Fang Yuan thought about it again. He did not lack the ability to continue fighting. What he wanted was to instantly kill his opponent with a short burst of power. Therefore, he chose the third option, which was to temporarily increase the critical strike times to three times.
The only drawback was that only earth-type or plant-type pet beasts could use it. If it was an earth-type and plant-type pet beast, it could double the time.
