Chapter 301: Instantly Bing a Support
Energy shield…
Clearly, the Sudden Death King has awakened another peculiar talent.
Perhaps it’s a case of the heart giving rise to such talents.
As everyone knows, the Sudden Death King’s strength lies in its terrifying physical defense.
As for its energy release attack skills, like electric discharge, they’re rather mediocre.
The electric discharge skill only bes somewhat effective when it’s been bruised a lot, paired with the Heart of the Overlord talent.
While sparring with General Ha, a single electric discharge from the Sudden Death King often ends with it being sliced in half by General Ha’s sword qi, scattering in midair.
But with this new energy shield talent, Lu Ran immediately sensed something unusual.
Is this meant to make its energy release skills as sturdy as its physical defense?Energy release skills are actually in a tricky spot; their energy structures are unstable. If the enemy is weak, that’s fine-the skill will obliterate everything and crush through opposition. But if the enemy is on par, they only need to release a slightly weaker skill to counteract, causing both skills to explode in the air, effectively neutralizing each other.
But if the skill also has defense power…
Will it still be easily destroyed?
Actually, rather than thinking about Sudden Death King’s thunder abilities, Lu Ran first thought of its rock attributes.
After the evolution, the Sudden Death King awakened the power of rock. However, aside from learning the meteor intent, Lu Ran and his team hadn’t really developed it.@@novelbin@@
Lu Ran felt it was time to explore this further.
Throwing the shaped rock from the sky like a meteorite! Since the rock has strong defense, there’s no worry about losing power due to friction, making it even more fitting for the meteor intent!
Moreover, if the Sudden Death King learns a domain in the future, could its domain be incredibly solid due to this energy shield?
Just like Manager Ying’s domain skill, once an enemy is trapped, it’s like sealing them; no matter how hard they try, they can’t break out.
The more Lu Ran thought about it, the more potential he saw.
“Roar roar!!!”
In the space of the ruins, the Sudden Death King excitedly roared, expressing its ted heart.
Swinging its arms in circles, it bestowed its defense aura onto General Ha and the others.
It barked with joy.
Finally, it won’t have to be just a meat shield anymore.
Under the Sudden Death King’s enhancement, a dark red circle of light immediately appeared beneath General Ha, the Dark Crow, and the others.
Then, the dark red circle emanated a dazzling glow upwards. In that moment, General Ha and the Dark Crow felt a qualitative change in their physiques!
“What about me?” Lu Ran quickly nced at the Sudden Death King, wanting to be included.
“Roar-” The Sudden Death King, panting, turned its head. It hadn’t expected applying this buff to be so tiring, but it did the same for Lu Ran.
Meanwhile, General Ha and the others began exploring the uses of the defense aura.
Take General Ha, for instance-surrounded by violent hurricanes, the sword of wind it held in its mouth was continuouslypressed…
10 times, 20 times, 30 times, 50 times…
General Ha had previously mastered a wounded version of 50 times energypression. It required holding the Divine Deer Sword to stably release 50 times sword qi.
But now, under the enhancement of the Sudden Death King’s defense aura, General Ha didn’t use any healing measures, and the terrifying 50 times energypression didn’t cause its body to break down or its teeth to shatter.
“Uh-” General Ha’s eyes widened in disbelief. Is this the Sudden Death King’s body??
Amazing.
It looked at the Sudden Death King’s body greedily, like a bone.
Then, it showed a look of disdain.
Useless Sudden Death King.
With such a powerful body, its energypression skill only reached 30 times.
If it had such physical quality, it would have mastered the perfect 50 times energypression long ago.
“Roar roar!!! (What are you doing.)”
The Sudden Death King angrily red at General Ha, thinking how ungrateful it was to be scolded even after giving it a buff with the defense aura.
So what if it’s thirty times?
“Roar roar!! (Look at the Dark Crow, it hasn’t even mastered 30 times.)”
“Caw caw??” The Dark Crow, surprised, found itself being belittled by the Sudden Death King right after General Ha did.
The Dark Crow wore an indignant expression. How is thatparable???
“You two joined the team earlier than I did and have been training longer! I haven’t even had time to train for energypression!! Let’s see who can do better in energy release!”
After saying this, the Dark Crow also noticed the benefits of strong defense.
The defense aura provided by the Sudden Death King enhanced the body in every aspect.
Though temporary, the Dark Crow even felt its eyes transforming, as if their power had strengthened significantly. Normally, staring into the distance would cause eye strain, but now, like General Ha’s teeth, its endurance was greatly increased.
“I feel like with this, I’ll master 30 times energypression soon enough…”
“The taste of having a powerful body is truly wonderful.”
The Dark Crow eximed excitedly. It soared into the sky, extending its sharp ws, which werepressing an astonishing amount of dark power-10 times, 20 times, 30 times…
With a terrifying, ck hole-like strike of its ws, the next moment, a deep chasm appeared on the grounds of the ruins, exuding an ominous breath.
Seeing this, the Dark Crow’s eyes lit up.
“This feeling is indeed nice.”
Lu Ran spoke up as well.
“This defense aura is clearly meant to be used in conjunction with energypression. Energypression ces a heavy burden on the body, and both your and General Ha’s physiques are average. But now, with the Sudden Death King’s defensive blessing, you can handle energypression levels you couldn’t withstand before.”
At this point, Lu Ran was also poking his eight-pack abs, testing the hardness of his skull with a brick. Beyond that, he stretched out his hand, with terrifying me energypressing around it.
10 times, 20 times, 30 times…
The violent mes roared wildly.
In the past, by this point, Lu Ran’s hand would have been a roasted pig’s trotter; he hadn’t tried this during domain training for nothing.
The reason Lu Ran had to invest so many more resources than General Ha to use a domain was because his mastery in energypression was always slightly inferior to General Ha’s.
Even with the healing of the divine deer antler, his body couldn’t withstand self-inflicted harm as General Ha’s did.
If only this ability hade sooner, his training might not have been so strenuous…
“Woof woof!!” “Grass grass!!” “Pitter-patter!!”
At this moment, watching General Ha, the Dark Crow, and Lu Ran having a st, the three little ones from the junior group nced eagerly at the Sudden Death King.
“Roar roar!!” The Sudden Death King looked at them, frowning. It was out of energy, really not a drop left; it had just finished training and hadn’t rested yet!
“With this, the odds are better,” Lu Ran remarked, looking at his pet beasts with a smirk, “The Alliance Challenge still poses some pressure because the maximum equipment level allowed during thepetition is exquisite-level.
“Epic equipment isn’t something every country has; only the major nations can afford it. But exquisite equipment is something every country can bring to the table, which is why there’s a restriction for fairness. Therefore, General Ha’s pseudo-legendary species form and Cloud Baby’s Kunpeng transformation won’t be showcased during the event.
“But now, the defense aura from the Sudden Death King might just push your abilities to another breakthrough within these few days!
“Before the full onset of the Age of Beast Taming, the highest international record for energypression technique was 30 times, and energypression is a crucialbat technique for surpassing levels.
“Next, with the defense aura and the divine deer antler working together… General Ha, Sudden Death King, Dark Crow, I’m giving you all a task.”
“General Ha, by the time of the challenge, aim to master a light injury 50 times energypression in your normal state and a severe injury 60 timespression. Sudden Death King, aim for an uninjured 40 times energypression, and Dark Crow, go for an uninjured 30 times energypression.”
“Any issues?” Lu Ran asked.
When the timees, even if the opponent’s species level matches General Ha’s and their growth level surpasses General Ha’s, once General Ha unleashes 60 times energypression, it’ll wreak havoc on any opponent.
As for the physical strain, well, treatment with the divine deer antler after the battle would suffice. The strategy centers on taking life and death lightly and striking down those who refuse toply.
Lately, I’ve been too focused on unique traits and rare abilities, overlooking the importance of the basics.
Energypression… That’s been my go-to ultimate move for surpassing levels in battles all along.
No matter the ability orbat technique, they all require a strong foundation to be wielded more effectively.
Energy release, energypression, energy flow, energy shaping-these are the core elements.
“When the timees, you three will be the main contenders. Give the second generation and First Generation a bit of an energypression shock,” Lu Ran said with a smile.
As for the Sword Spirit and Sword Grass, they also need to train in energypression to better sync with General Ha for the ultimate move.
Cloud Baby, on the other hand, won’t be participating in this challenge tournament. Since it hasn’t undergone its first-stage evolution andcks the boost of an epic item, the pressure would be a bit too much. It needs more time to develop.
As Lu Ran finished speaking, the other pet beasts nodded in agreement.
However, the Sudden Death King looked bewildered.
Wait a minute, this wasn’t its original intention for mastering the defense aura!
Wasn’t the n to enhance teammates so they could take the hits? How did it suddenly end up as training support?
