Chapter 413 Moon Rose Emblem
"Good job!"

In the stands, Zhao Qian shook off her previous dejection and excitedly waved her arms in the air.

Initially, she, like Wen Yue, thought Qin Lang's plan was to inflict the abnormal effect of "fear" on the other party.

Unexpectedly, the [Forgetting Magic] was the real backup plan.

“Now, we really have a chance.” She spoke quickly. “Without these two combat skills for the time being, Red Rose’s strength has been greatly reduced.”

"As long as Qin Lang seizes the opportunity and finishes the battle quickly..."

"What kind of combat technique is that?" Cao Dongdong asked, interrupting Zhao Qian as he looked at the stage.

"Hmm?" Zhao Qian subconsciously turned her head and saw the red rose dancing on the battlefield. As it danced gracefully, specks of green light were rapidly flowing into its body.

"This is... the Dance of the Forest?"

"Ms. Wen Yue's food spirits can do this too?!"

"Didn't you do your homework?" Cao Dongdong gave Zhao Qian a strange look. "You don't even know what combat skills are required for the Food Spirit assessment?"

"What do you know?" Zhao Qian rolled her eyes. "This combat skill didn't exist before; it's probably a newly learned one."

"Besides, isn't using this method in the Spirit Bearer assessment too much of a cheat?"

The Wood-type combat skill [Dance of the Forest] enhances the user's affinity with Wood-type energy through dance. During its effect, the user cannot use non-Wood-type combat skills, but the power of Wood-type combat skills is increased by 20% and the cooldown is reduced by 40%.

Compared to the former, the latter is the most deadly.

Because the effect of [Forget Magic] will be removed after Red Rose uses any skill five times!
No, there are only four left now!

On the battlefield, Qin Lang also recognized the combat technique that Hong Qiang was using at the moment, and his lips twitched as he spoke without hesitation.

"Egg Bao, use cluster fire to interrupt it!"

"Gulp!" Egg Baby took a deep breath, and the temperature around him suddenly rose. The next moment, a pillar of fire, like a heavy cannon, crossed the battle platform and slammed into Red Rose, who was dancing.

Fire-based combat skill, [Breath of Blazing Fire]!
"Bear--"

In an instant, the red rose dancing in place was engulfed by flames. Just as Qin Lang was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a series of willow-leaf-shaped flying knives tore through the wall of flames and indiscriminately enveloped Egg Treasure.

Wood-type combat skill: [Willow Leaf Flying Dagger]!
Zhao Qian's Food Spirit Agate also possesses this combat skill, but in the hands of the near-three-star revitalized Food Spirit Red Rose, it's a world of difference.

The overwhelming, all-encompassing blades made Qin Lang's heart tighten. "Egg Baby, use Flame Charge!"

"Let's just ram them!"

"Gurgle...gurgle!!!"

Egg Baby was instantly engulfed in blazing flames. After letting out a low shout, it transformed into a ball of fire and headed towards Red Rose, who had just emerged from the flames and still bore the distinctive charred marks of the [Burning] affliction.

Just as Egg was about to collide with the other, Red Rose's body instantly turned into countless green leaves and disappeared, then reappeared in another place.

Wood-type combat skill: [Plant Substitute].

"Such a fast combat technique usage speed?"

Qin Lang frowned and looked closely at Hong Qiang, then noticed that Hong Qiang was emitting a faint green light.

His heart sank.

It seems that the interruption with [Breath of Fire] was ineffective.

The opponent must have completed the enhancement just before the attack arrived.

And so...

"It's our turn!"

Wen Yue shouted, "Red Rose, suck it!"

As she finished speaking, Red Rose raised her hand, and a green energy band instantly connected her to Egg Baby, who had just finished its battle and revealed its form. Bright light surged from Egg Baby's body and was transmitted to Red Rose's body through this energy band.

Wood-type combat skill: [Life Drain]!
This combat skill can deplete the opponent's stamina to restore one's own. More importantly, the energy absorption effect is inescapable and is not considered an abnormal state, so it cannot be immune to Egg Baby's [Rage].

More importantly, Crimson Rose is only one combat skill away from the [Forgetfulness Magic] expiring! Think of a way!
We must find a way!
correct!

Suddenly remembering something, Qin Lang's eyes lit up.

[Life Drain] Theoretically, the duration is infinite. The longer it lasts, the more stamina it consumes for the opponent, and the more stamina it restores for itself.

However, this combat technique has a limitation: during its use, the user cannot use any other combat techniques.

Red Rose was first hit by [Breath of Fire], and then Egg Baby was attacked by [Willow Leaf Flying Knife], triggering a double-powered Vengeful Fire counterattack. With the attribute advantage, it was enough to give Egg Baby a hard time.

and so…

The opponent is unlikely to end [Life Drain] so quickly, which means the effect of [Forgetfulness Magic] can continue!

"Egg Baby, use Fire Meteor!"

With Qin Lang's shout, Egg Baby summoned two huge fireballs that rained down from the sky and slammed into Red Rose without hesitation.

"Tsk~" Wen Yue's expression turned somewhat displeased upon seeing this scene. She hadn't expected Qin Lang to use such a decisive and deadly move.

"Red Rose, Purify."

"Sika~" Red Rose responded, and after ending [Life Drain], she raised her hand to instantly purify the [Burning] effect on herself.

"How is this possible?!" Qin Lang's pupils suddenly contracted.

He was still missing one combat skill, how could this be...?

Just as this thought popped into his head, he suddenly smelled a sweet fragrance that had quietly permeated the entire venue.

This is…

Wood-type combat skill, [Light Sleep Fragrance]!
So that's where the lack of combat skills came from!
The next instant, Red Rose's figure was engulfed by the falling fireball, but Qin Lang's expression remained tense.

Without the [Burning] effect, can the [Flame Meteor], which no longer doubles in power, really defeat its opponent?

The answer is, yes!
The flames suddenly flared up, and from within came a scream of Red Rose. In the next instant, she transformed into a stream of light and flew back to Star Pulse.

Startled for a moment, Qin Lang then realized what had happened.

The "Second-mover advantage" trait has been triggered!

As seen in the previous battles, Red Rose is extremely fast.

The speed difference allowed Egg Baby's special ability to be successfully triggered in the final burst, resulting in a critical hit and further increasing the damage!

Seeing this, Qin Lang breathed a sigh of relief.

so far so good.

If Red Rose manages to withstand this attack, she can counter with [Entwining Vine Embrace] followed by [High Explosion Rose]...

Even with Egg's tankiness, it probably wouldn't be able to withstand it.

"...Huh?" Wen Yue on the other side was equally dumbfounded. "How is this possible? I clearly calculated the damage..."

Halfway through her sentence, she suddenly realized, "Is it a characteristic?"

"Yes." Qin Lang touched his nose. "Ms. Wen Yue, I should consider myself the winner of this assessment, right?"

Wen Yue paused for a moment, then fell silent, "Alright."

"This match was pretty enjoyable, let's continue!"

She casually tossed a shiny object to Qin Lang and then left without a second thought.

Qin Lang reached out and caught it, unable to resist examining it closely.

It was a red and blue emblem, with a striking design featuring a crescent moon and rose, and the words "Lanqiu City · Moon Rose" were engraved on it.
