Chapter 472 Ice Drill Fist!
After dinner and celebration, Lin Shi and Su Qimeng returned to the villa together. While eating, he also received news from Li Fan and the others.
All three of them successfully obtained two practice badges and participated in the competition, but only Li Fan had a competition on the first day. Gao Duo and Ye Wanshu's competitions were on the second day. Lin Shi also promised to go and watch the game tomorrow.
"Has the time for the next archaeological excavation been determined? Or will it be in the Mojiang Secret Realm?"
In the villa, Lin Shi asked Su Qimeng. He remembered that the other party should still participate in the archaeological work.
"Well, it's been decided. This time we will go to the interior of the ruins and work with the Mojiang Security Bureau and the Alliance Reclamation Department to conduct archaeological research inside."
"But I took a look and it seems we still have some time left. It should be enough to last until the regional competition is over. By the time the national competition starts, we might have completed our mission and come out."
Su Qimeng took a sip of water and pursed her lips and said.
"Well, that's good. I'd like to go and see it when I have time."
Lin Shi nodded and said that, after all, he was a little worried, not only because of the strange and supernatural legends Su Qimeng told him, but also because he had helped Su Qimeng decipher some texts from the ruins some time ago.
The Xiyi people in this relic gave him a somewhat strange feeling, and the relics they left behind were definitely not of the good variety.
Hearing Lin Shi's words, Su Qimeng smiled slightly, and said with her wet lips reflecting the light:
"Okay, I'm going to bed. You should get some rest too."
Su Qimeng paced back to the room, looking like she was in a good mood. Lin Shi also washed up and prepared to go back to the room to sleep. He was also very tired and needed a good rest.
"bell……"
At this moment his cell phone suddenly rang. Looking at the name Shi Xinkuan on the screen, Lin Shi smiled. Calculating the time, he should have arrived at the research institute.
"Hello, Dr. Shi, are you adapting to the new environment?"
"I've adapted to it, and it's been much better than I thought."
Although he was on the phone, Shi Xinkuan kept nodding his head. He thought that his future life would be spent in a small dark room without seeing the sun, but he didn't expect it to be such a magnificent research institute.
Although he still had to keep his identity secret, it was much better than he had expected.
"It's good that you've adapted. I hope Dr. Shi can work well. If you need anything, ask me for it. Don't let me down."
Lin Shi's tone was calm. He had already checked Shi Xinkuan's previous information. The previous information showed that Shi Xinkuan's original name was Shi Zhuang. He was an orphan who was admitted to the Magic City University, one of the six famous universities in China, with excellent grades.
But he disappeared after graduation, and almost no one knew his whereabouts. I guess he joined Polaris at that time. He worked in this organization for more than 10 years and became the head of the stronghold. I don’t know whether this speed is fast or slow.
"Don't worry, I will start researching the mysterious amber immediately and produce results as soon as possible."
Shi Xinkuan assured that the other party was not doing charity, and for the sake of his own safety he must do his best to let Lin Shi see his own value.
"That's good……"
After giving a few more instructions, mainly asking Shi Xinkuan not to draw attention to himself, Lin Shi ended the call. It was already late at night, and it was time to go to bed...
……
"Swampert, use Freeze Punch!"
In the first fighting hall of Taoxian City, the second day of the National Youth Championship is in full swing.
On a battlefield, Gaoduo was commanding his ace Pokémon Swampert to attack the opponent's Squirtle.
Even with its physical defense, it dare not be hit by the four-fold restraint of ice-type skills and keeps dodging. But similarly, Swampert is also four times restrained by grass-type Pokémon. Once the opponent seizes the opportunity to counterattack, Gaoduo will immediately fall into a passive position.
"Lin Shi, what do you think? Both of them have only one elf left, and Gao Duo's attributes are unfavorable. Is there still hope?"
Li Fan sat next to Lin Shi and asked with a frown.
The battlefield was so intense that Lin Shi couldn't make any judgment. After all, the opponent was no weakling. The final victory or defeat would still depend on the quality of the individual and the elves.
"It's hard to say. Let's see if he can seize the opportunity. Besides, didn't Gao Duo say that he has a secret weapon?"
"Hehe, as the saying goes, if you don't plan for the future, you will have immediate worries. Gao Duo had anticipated the situation of attribute restraint a long time ago, and he dragged me to special training. Just look at his performance."
Ye Wanshu smiled, adjusted his glasses and said confidently.
Sure enough, not long after Ye Wanshu finished speaking, Gao Duo made the Swampert jump up and launched a fierce attack.
"The Swampert uses Tide Twister!"
"Whoa!"
Swampert let out a gruff cry, and a rapidly spinning vortex of water appeared on its right fist, as if it was holding a giant drill.
"Very good, Swampert, hold on, use Freeze Punch!"
Gao Duo raised his fist and shouted loudly. A gleam of light flashed in Swampert's eyes, and cold air burst out, quickly wrapping around the vortex in his palm and turning into an ice drill.
"Go ahead, Swampert!"
Holding the Ice Drill Fist, Swampert fell from above and smashed towards Tortoise. The opponent on the opposite side also felt that something was wrong, and panic appeared in his eyes, and he hurriedly gave orders to resist.
"Tutai Turtle, use the mallet!"
This Tutai turtle is also quite powerful. Its whole body is filled with grass-type energy. The small tree on its back is growing more and more lush. Its whole body is shrouded in green light, and it faces Swampert.
"Oh!"
The two clashed instantly, with the ice drill and the wooden hammer confronting each other without giving in. In the end, the cold air was more powerful and was the first to freeze the vitality of the earth turtle. The green light dissipated, and the ice drill fist successfully hit!
"The Tutai turtle has lost its ability to fight, the game is over, and the winner is Gao Duo from Northern University!"
"Clap clap..."
"Not bad, Gao Duo, well done!"
Seeing Gao Duo successfully win the first game, Lin Shi and others all stood up and applauded him.
Gaoduo's idea is good. Combining skills in this way can greatly increase the power of Ice Fist, which is suitable for dealing with Grass-type Pokémon that restrain Swampert.
With Gao Duo's victory, the second day of the auditions officially kicked off. Soon, good news came from Ye Wanshu's battle, and he successfully won the competition.
So far, almost everyone Lin Shi knows has successfully passed the first round, but this is normal.
After all, their Northern University is one of the six famous universities. In the absence of competition from students from the other five famous universities in the Northeast, they have absolute crushing power over other schools.
Moreover, this is only the first day of the competition, and the opponents we encounter are likely to be relatively weak. From then on, it will become increasingly difficult.
Watching the increasingly lively battle field, Lin Shi felt a little itchy. He hoped that the audition stage would be over quickly so that he could play in the main competition.
His elves have long been impatient...
