Uma Musume: From Being Knocked Ten Meters Away

Chapter 88 Feeling of powerlessness

As he entered the final bend, Vodka slowly lowered his body.

Different from the leading rhythm of Yamato Akagi and Northern Black Horse, her pace was quite steady and powerful, with a subtle sense of orderliness, as if she had already predicted the acceleration of Yamato Akagi.

That's exactly what happened.

Having fought against each other several times in their career, she was very familiar with Yamato Akagi.

Her goal at this moment was very clear, which was to use the curves to shorten the distance as much as possible before the final straight line arrived, in preparation for the final sprint.

While keeping a close eye on Yamato Akagi, she did not ignore Beifang Xuanju.

Vodka glanced at the younger generation in the inner sect, smiled, and then stared straight ahead.

"Not bad, Xiaobei, you can run to this extent..."

While murmuring, she stared at the exit of the final bend. The moment she came out of the bend, her gaze fixed on the figure in front of her that was so familiar that it couldn't be more familiar.

At the same time, she also caught a glimpse of two figures running parallel to each other on the outside and chasing from behind.

"Have you caught up with us, Xiao Te, A Chuan...?

"But you guys are like this...

"You can't beat this guy Yamato!"

With a low growl, she lowered her body again, which had been gathering momentum since entering the bend. Her long brown ears and tail suddenly stretched back straight, and then swung in an arc to the left.

With a sudden surge of speed, she chased after Yamato Akagi who was right in front of her.

A little closer to the inside of Vodka, Beibu Xuanju felt a familiar palpitation.

Like Yamato Akagi, the senior Vodka's acceleration timing is not only precise, but also has a subtlety that is difficult for her to describe.

In an instant, the uncomfortable feeling of being clamped came over her, just like in the opening scene. She unconsciously wanted to replicate the way she broke free from the clamp, and also wanted to imitate the sprinting and turning movements of her predecessors as a conditioned reflex.

However, this time I failed to achieve my goal and was unable to imitate it.

She only felt that the abundant strength she usually had seemed to be locked in her body. Although she had the instructions in her head, her legs, feet and waist were unable to follow the instructions. She could only watch as the senior passed by her on the left.

On the radio, the voice of the Emperor of the East China Sea suddenly rose.

"They're catching up! The Vodka player is catching up!

"She overtook Northern Black Horse the moment she came out of the corner and headed straight for Yamato Red Horse. Is she going to challenge her old rival like she did back then?!"

Mejiro McQueen's voice was calm.

"Yamato Akagi's finish line is different from most leading horse girls. She has a certain sprinting ability. We can't wait for the straight line like we do with other runaway horses. We must go up and fight her one-on-one now.

"Vodka's tactics are quite targeted, worthy of being our long-time rival!" However, at the end, she couldn't help but get a little excited.

The Emperor of the East Sea then said loudly:
"Yamato Akagi and Vodka have reached the final straight line! Vodka has caught up!

“Now it’s side by side!

"Sure enough! Vodka won't give this old rival a chance! The two contestants are very close! They are very close!
"Now it's a real one-on-one duel!"

The audience was in an uproar, and in everyone's sight, two figures at the front of the track entered the final straight at the same time.

Looking from the side, Yamato Akagi and Vodka's figures almost overlapped, their two brown horsetails pulled into two straight lines in the wind, and large pieces of fine grass debris flew behind them.

Being thrown off by the two seniors, Beibu Xuanju was shocked, but at the same time, he clearly felt that the discomfort he had felt before had disappeared.

She vaguely realized that it was the rich experience and more refined abilities displayed by her predecessors that had kept her at a disadvantage from the start of the competition until now. This was especially true on the final straight. Whether in practice or competition, her greatest strength was to lead the way, running straight to the finish line and winning.

Being in the awkward third position, she couldn't use too many of her familiar skills and abilities. Now she even felt uncomfortable sprinting normally.

The last time we briefly escaped the passive situation was by taking the initiative to attack, so now we have to take the initiative to catch up again.

However, just as she adjusted her breathing and pace, she heard swift footsteps on the left that made her pupils shrink.

Unconsciously, she glanced sideways in disbelief, and then saw a dark figure flash past in an instant as if the air was torn apart.

At the same time, the voice of the East China Sea Emperor who was in charge of the live broadcast paused.

"Yamato Akagi and Vodka are still fighting alone. They...but! But!

"Suddenly rushing out from the outside! Teji Zhou is catching up!

“There are still 300 meters to the finish line!
"Special Zhou is keeping a distance from Yamato Akagi and Vodka. Yamato Akagi and Vodka are still fighting, but Special Zhou has surpassed them!
"As expected of the General-in-Chief!
“As expected of the general’s last rank!

“But Yamato Akagi and Vodka are not going to give up easily, they are approaching Tokaiju at the same time!

"Vodka faster! She's closer to her special week!
“A showdown between the last two legs!

“Now it’s a showdown between the last two legs!
“200 meters to go!
"Will the chaotic battle between the three continue until the end? Or... wait!
“It’s indeed her!
"The Golden Ship...is finally showing its strength!!"

When the Emperor of the East China Sea exclaimed the name of "Golden Ship", Megumi McQueen also fell into uncontrollable excitement.

“As expected of Achuan, it always brings surprises!

"Her stamina was best preserved, and her last kick wasn't even close to the leading opponent's. Accelerating at this point was quite wise!
“Caught up!
“Now we’re only four lengths away… no, only three or two lengths away!

"As expected of Achuan!"

For a moment, strangely enough, the stadium suddenly fell into inexplicable silence.

There was astonishment in the eyes of all the audience, and everyone was speechless for a moment because of the dazzling confrontation in the final straight line.

The next second, astonishment turned into surprise, and unprecedented cheers exploded above the playground of Tresen Academy.

Before, everyone was clearly cheering for the idols they supported and admired, but now the cheering and applause have completely merged into an indescribable noise.

For the audience of this game, it doesn’t matter who they are cheering for. What matters is that they witness with their own eyes the figures who are rumored and remembered in the history of the game running and competing on the green field again.

On the track, in Beifang Xuanju's vision, when the three seniors who were originally in the lead were fighting with unparalleled momentum, a third figure rushed out from her side.

The tall figure with long silver-gray hair ran straight forward, calmly passing the storm-like conflict in front of him, and rushed towards the finish line.

No matter which figure it was, it gave her an untouchable feeling.

Unable to suppress it, she felt a sense of powerlessness deep in her heart.

But the feeling of powerlessness only lasted for a moment.

Not lost yet...

The game isn’t over yet…

I haven't lost yet!
His nails dug deep into his palms, and the power spreading throughout his body replaced the feeling of powerlessness. His breathing became shorter and shorter until he held his breath. Northern Black Horse stomped heavily on the ground and struggled to chase after the figure in front of him.

After a while...

"Cross the finish line! The champion of this training match... is the Golden Ship!
"Thank you very much, thank you very much, thank you all very much for the wonderful game!"
