Chosen Evolution: I can load the protagonist template

Chapter 486 Every time I see the moon, I think of you

Little Purple, or rather, the skill set that this guy painstakingly created for Gastly is a very insidious and single-target-oriented system—

Curse + Hypnosis + Dream Eater + Substitute.

Using a substitute to save one's life and a curse to force one to act, the combination of hypnosis and dream eating can control the opponent while also effectively restoring one's own HP lost due to the curse.

Haunter in Xiao Zi's hands is meant to be used for support and coordination, with the main damage output coming from the Haunter itself.

The Hypnosis skill has a base hit rate of only 60%, and when it hits a boss-type unit, the hit rate inevitably drops further. This time, it was a low-probability event for it to work on Iori Yagami. It was just that the Yasakani no Magatama, one of the three sacred treasures in Iori's body, started to move at this crucial moment.

This gave Iori Yagami, who might have already fallen into a deep sleep, a chance to fight back, and he didn't hesitate to forcibly wake himself up through self-harm.

The spurting blood from his head made Yagami look even more terrifying.

"Surrender! Replace him!!!"

Yagami was decisive, but Komurasaki was even more decisive, raising her hand on the spot to signal the referee.

Since the hypnosis and dream-eating damage-restoring strategy was no longer viable, Xiao Zi naturally conceded defeat and switched to another player, as originally planned.

The moment the host announced Iori Yagami's victory, a piercing pain instantly gripped him.

It was as if the nail that had just been driven into Xiao Zi's forehead had now pierced into his internal organs.

Correspondingly, Iori Yagami's health bar dropped by a quarter, and the curse effect took full effect!
Even though Iori Yagami forced his opponent to leave the field after only two initial exchanges, his actual health was already below 70% due to his self-harm.

The curse is very powerful, but it is also very easy to remove. You can remove it immediately by jumping off the stage. However, given Iori Yagami's personality, this path is effectively blocked. Even if Cheng Tian openly reveals this method, his pride probably won't allow him to use it.

A prime example of someone who suffers for the sake of saving face.

Komurasaki's sudden retreat greatly upset Iori Yagami, but he couldn't just rush down and slap her on the head with his claws. With blood still on his forehead, Iori Yagami's aura became increasingly dangerous.

The anger that Xiao Zi received will inevitably be borne by the next contestant.

To ensure the curse's continuation, Team 996 immediately deployed their core player, "Eight Treasure Rice".

He was a short man who looked less than 1.4 meters tall, and at first glance, it was even hard to tell if he was male or female. However, like Billy Kane, he came on stage armed.

The weapon he used was a rather large ring-shaped blade, which could be easily slipped onto his body like a hula hoop. The entire outer side of the ring was a sharp blade, with only two relatively narrow gripping points.

Babaofan, with its ring blades slung diagonally across its body, had already assumed a fighting stance.

"I wonder if it's a ring-shaped weapon from the Dynasty Warriors series, or the favorite weapon of that demon plastic surgeon, Shigure."

Cheng Tian, ​​who still maintained a high level of professionalism, continued to cover the microphone.

Ring-shaped weapons are quite rare among all types of cold weapons, and this large ring, which is about the size of a hula hoop, is even rarer.

However, judging from the simple and unadorned appearance of the ring blade, Cheng Tian preferred the latter.

At the same time, I'm also very curious about how to wield this weapon that looks like a six-fold child.

The dedicated mustachioed man once again announced the start of the mid-lane battle, and Iori Yagami, seething with anger, resorted to his old trick again, unleashing a hidden attack. Even without the levitation property, this ground-walking wave can be easily leaped over with a proper mid-jump, which is exactly what Hachipo-gan did.

With his small and light build, he tucked in and released his thighs, and his whole body leaped more than two meters high with incredible lightness. It wasn't that he couldn't jump higher, but that there was no need for him to.

But just as the dark blade swept past Hachitōfan's crotch, Iori Yagami's hand, still wreathed in azure flames, made a clenching motion. Then, the dark blade below erupted with a pillar of energy, instantly engulfing Hachitōfan in mid-air.

Ultimate move! The Eight-Cup Sake Technique of the Hundred and Eight Styles!

The eight-treasure rice that was hit was frozen in place, its body motionless, and it was forcibly fixed in mid-air by gravity!

"Yagami used a clever trick! Taking advantage of his opponent's underestimation of Anji, he hid his highly concealed ultimate move, the Eight Wine Cups, inside, successfully catching his opponent off guard!"
Now, not only does the Eight Treasure Rice player have to endure the stagnation and erosion of the Azure Flame on his body, but he also has to face all the rage that the Eight Treasure Rice player accumulated in the previous battle!!!

Mr. Cheng spoke passionately, spitting everywhere.

And just as Cheng Tian said, the Eight Treasure Rice will bear all the wrath from Iori Yagami.

The Eight Wine Cups uses the power of a divine artifact to temporarily seal the target with azure flames. The target's body and will enter a momentary, eternal stagnation during the duration of the Eight Wine Cups' effect, and at this time, any external force can easily break this stagnation.

It is essentially different from stopping time, but for the victim, there is little difference; both simply force the victim to remain fixed in place and be brutally beaten.

The next moment, Iori Yagami's hands were already raised above his head, a starting stance he had learned by observing the Yamata no Orochi slaughtering eight young girls as sacrifices—

The 1211-style Eight Maidens are forbidden!

"They're here! They're here! The Eight Maidens are coming!"

Cheng Tian was incredibly excited as he watched the forbidden technique, which he had seen countless times in various fighting games and videos, about to witness it unfold before his eyes.

With bloodstains still on his forehead and a maniacal smile on his face, Iori Yagami had already pounced like a phantom. As he leaped lightly, his five hook-like fingers mercilessly gripped Hachibo-fan's throat.

At that moment, the azure flames representing the eight wine cups on Babaofan's body dissipated completely, but with his throat already gripped, he had lost the ability to resist.

Hachibo-fan, who was forcibly dragged back to the ground by Iori Yagami, had already been hit in the chest by Iori Yagami's second claw. Before the blood could even splatter, it had already been evaporated by the Azure Flame.

The third claw, the fourth claw... each scratching meant that a part of the muscle fibers were being torn apart. Babaofan's small body was being treated inhumanly cruelly, like a tattered rag doll.

With all eight claws extended, Iori Yagami grabbed Hachibo-han's head and slammed his own forehead, which was covered in azure flames and bloodstains, against it!

But at that very moment, a large green aura suddenly appeared around Eight Treasure Rice. The finishing blow from Eight Maidens, which should have been fatal, instead caused Eight Treasure Rice's already bleeding health to surge even more.

The Dire hero Abaddon's ability is "Last Stand".

When you reach the lowest health threshold, the "Last Stand" skill will automatically activate, dispelling all negative effects and converting all damage taken into HP recovery for 4 seconds.

Despite being sent flying by the final blow from the Eight Maidens, Hachibo-han managed to pick up the ring blade from the ground and then aimed the hollow part at Iori Yagami, who was in a state of skill activation stun, and uttered these words with difficulty.

"Eight Treasures... Ring Kill!"
