Chapter 712: Chapter 244: Scapegoat Ghost (Requesting Monthly Tickets)_3

…

“You see, this comment says you deliberately used your skills to end the fight, instead of using Cooperative Skills, because of the article yesterday,” Qin Nan pointed to a barrage in the live stream and patted Lin Su who had just returned to his seat, “Did you really do it because of that?”

“Sort of,” Lin Su nodded slightly.

He had happened to pay attention to the article yesterday.

The article claimed that without his Cooperative Skills, Guardian Beast Co-operation would have made no progress—an assertion Lin Su himself did not agree with.

He was merely standing on the shoulders of giants.

Only after having experienced everything in the divine martial world could he truly understand how remarkable the discovery of Guardian Beast Co-operation was.

And all of this was developed independently by researchers led by Qin Yunzhang, who had worked day and night.

Just for this reason alone, no one had any right to criticize them.

So today, Lin Su purposely used the skills of his ghost to end the fight, aiming to prove that without Cooperative Skills, Guardian Beast Co-operation was still powerful. The configuration of Talent Skills and teaching skills was equally important.

“You little…” Qin Nan chuckled and then, pointing to another barrage in the live stream, couldn’t help but grin, “Look, they’re saying that you played dirty today because you were influenced by the ghost.”

“Che?! (☉Д☉)” (What?!)

The ghost beside him widened its eyes, a look of shock on its face.

What are they talking about?

What does it mean that Lin Su resorted to such dirty tactics because he was influenced by me?

And more!

How could the coordinated skills of a pet beast be called a dirty tactic!

How infuriating!

It hurriedly leaned in, staring at the barrage inside the live room. After a moment, it raised its big, tearful eyes.

“Che…(╥﹏╥)” (I can’t carry this pot…)

Lin Su also saw the words in the live stream and immediately his expression became rather interesting.

He rarely used such tactics in front of so many people, mainly because he didn’t want to be called a scoundrel.

It turned out that things weren’t quite as he had expected.

At this thought, Lin Su helplessly stretched out his hand, rubbed the ghost’s head to comfort it, then earnestly said, “Ghost, the power of darkness can make you sink, but only a strong spirit can keep you steadfast. So, take everything at the moment as a tempering of the soul, alright?”

Qin Nan silently turned his head away.

He couldn’t bear to watch, who treats their pet beast like this.

“Che? (⊙▂⊙)” (Is that so?)

The ghost scratched its head, a look of bewilderment on its face.

The knowledge it had learned didn’t say that darkness would affect one’s character, did it?

Could it be in something it had not yet learned?

Got it! Its learning wasn’t sufficient enough; it needed to keep supplementing new knowledge!

“Che! (｡⊙‿⊙｡)” (Understood!)

The ghost nodded vigorously, its mind filled with renewed eagerness.

It’s just taking the blame, right!

For the sake of honing the spirit, these are all trivial matters!

Seeing that he had successfully hoodwinked the ghost, Lin Su secretly heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.

Afterward, he refocused his attention on the second bout taking place in the arena.

While Lin Su was talking to Qin Nan, the battleground had been completely repaired, and the Beast Tamers from the Holy Security Alliance and the Desert Soil Security Alliance swiftly took the stage, igniting further anticipation on Lin Su’s face.

Yesterday, a female Beast Tamer from the Holy Security Alliance named Lilith had competed, and by closely observing the details of her maneuvers along with Qin Yunzhang’s commentary in the live streaming room, Lin Su had gained a considerable understanding of the Holy Security Alliance’s mechanical weaponry Guardian Beast system.

Among the three Security Alliances, the mechanical weaponry Guardian Beast system was what interested Lin Su the most.

On one hand, it wasn’t restricted by the power of faith as the Faith Evolution path was.

On the other hand, it also didn’t involve the inhumane exotic beast experiments that characterized biological transformation Guardian Beasts.

More importantly, setting aside whether it was strong or not for the moment, outfitting pet beasts with mechanical armor was really cool!

The excitement level of the following battle also did not disappoint Lin Su’s expectations.

Unlike when he had fought yesterday, Sangla of the Desert Soil Security Alliance did not seek a cautious approach and summoned his two pet beasts right at the start.

Besides the Crane Deer, Sangla’s second pet beast appeared before everyone for the first time.

It was a giant eyeball floating quietly in the void, with countless tendrils floating behind it, its scarlet pupil and densely veined white of the eye making it appear extremely ferocious and fierce.

It was a Spirit-type Faith Totem beast that had evolved toward the sovereignty of fear and despair, the Totem Nightmare Lord.

The faith power of the Crane Deer hadn’t fully recovered, and in this battle, it simply served as support without entering its Faith Form. However, Sangla’s combat strength, when cooperating with the Nightmare Lord in its Faith Form, even made Lin Su look grave.

Facing Sangla at his full strength, the battle was initially very one-sided, until the Beast Tamer named Layson from the Holy Security Alliance employed a novel tactic that turned the tide.

In the Holy Security Alliance’s Guardian Beast system, when a Beast Tamer engaged in Guardian Beast Co-operation, the external armaments would automatically disengage from the pet beast, meaning the armament would not attach to the Beast Tamer’s body.

But when the Holy side was being pushed back, even Qin Yunzhang thought Desert Soil was going to win, Layson attached a set of new external armaments onto the Cooperative Body, its energy value skyrocketing by hundreds of thousands in full view of everyone.

With a burst of exertion, he turned the tables and defeated Sangla.

With the second match concluded, Lin Su, who had been watching the entire battle, looked rather serious.

The Holy Security Alliance’s novel technique was even unknown to Qin Yunzhang.

And tomorrow, it would be his turn to face the Holy Security Alliance.

This gave him an unprecedented sense of pressure.

The exchange and discussion session came to an end, and everyone left the arena in an orderly manner.

At that moment, a figure appeared in front of Lin Su.

“Lin Su, my name is Connor.” Connor looked at Lin Su calmly.

“Is there something you want?” Recognizing at once that the other party was from the Holy Security Alliance, Lin Su’s heart stirred.

“No, just saying hello.” Connor cracked a smile, “After all, you and I will have a match tomorrow.”

So he’s tomorrow’s opponent?

Lin Su sized up Connor seriously.

“I’ve been looking forward to this battle for a long time,” Connor said earnestly, “Don’t lose too quickly tomorrow.”

He really was full of provocation…

Lin Su’s eyes turned cold, and he nodded slightly.

“I will.”
