This villain is too popular.

Chapter 413 Unreasonable Assessment
As a typical cyborg, Caroline is well aware of her strengths.

Through her observation, she was able to deduce a great deal of information about the old man.

"The energy fluctuations are irregular. Each time it blocks an attack, the white jade at the top of the cane releases a dark energy field, some of which has a frequency similar to that of the star beast."

"Dust Star's Blood Flame can burn star energy, but it is directly disintegrated by this energy, indicating that it possesses the 'energy stripping' property."

Caroline analyzed the data rapidly while swiping her finger across the tactical tablet screen.

Every time the old man raised his hand, every time he exerted force with his cane, she broke it down into various precise parameters in a very short time, which were then rapidly refreshed on the tactical tablet screen.

"Preliminary speculation suggests that if the connection between him and the cane can be severed, it might limit the opponent's strength to some extent."

"However, based on Dust Star's recent attack, the hardness of its cane material fully meets the Association's S-class star energy alloy standard, so the tactical recommendation is to disarm it."

As she spoke, Caroline suddenly zoomed in on the screen of the tactical tablet.

The optical zoom function of the tactical tablet magnified every detail of the old man's body.

The scene she was focusing on and magnifying at that moment was the instant the old man raised his cane, and the wind blew up his sleeves.

In the image, a section of pale, almost transparent skin is briefly exposed, with several dark lines faintly visible beneath the skin, winding around the wrist like vines.

Although Caroline was not yet clear on what the patterns represented, she still gave a preliminary assessment.

"The distribution of star energy trajectories under its skin has an 80% similarity to the special vines of Changsheng Island in the data."

"In conclusion, this person may have some kind of symbiotic relationship with the island itself, and his body may have some plant-like characteristics."

After saying this, Caroline looked up at the Heavenly Dao beside her.

This is all the useful 'data' she could gather in the shortest amount of time.

As for other minor but not crucial data, Caroline did not disclose it for the time being.

They only told the key points to the Heavenly Dao.

Shortly after Caroline finished speaking, a crisp sound suddenly came from the center of the distant battlefield.

With a gentle wave of his cane, the dream creations of Mirror Glass vanished one after another, as if erased with eraser.

The thick ice that Jeremiah had conjured was even more vulnerable; it crumbled into tiny ice fragments in the air currents from the swing of his cane, falling onto the bluish-gray sand and quickly melting in the warm sand.

After doing all this, the old man raised his hand and dusted off the ice shards on his tailcoat, his movements as elegant as if he were merely brushing away dust.

Then, he tapped his cane on the beach, and an invisible energy wave immediately spread out from his body, sweeping across the entire area.

The next second, the entire beach seemed to have been paused.

The star energy arrows still flying in mid-air, the stone fists of the rock golems, and even the invisible energy released by the mental star envoys were all completely solidified in the face of this power, and after a brief pause, they turned into countless points of light and completely dissipated.

After doing all this, the old man's gaze swept across the crowd through the monoculars, finally settling on Tiandao.

"Aren't you going to make a move yet?"

Although there were many people in the direction the old man was looking.

But whether it was the students on the beach or the audience at the 13th station, they all understood who the old man was talking to.

Shortly after he finished speaking, a rustling vibration suddenly came from beneath the beach. Then, the bluish-gray sand on the beach began to churn, and countless thick purple vines burst forth from the sand.

The roots were covered in a sticky sap and had barbs at the tips. They could cause a burning sensation, like strong acid, on the skin when they touched the trainees' skin.

Even more bizarrely, the star energy within the trainees' bodies began to be frantically devoured by these vines along the contact points.

"Damn it!"

A boy whose ankle was entangled in vines struggled, but the harder he tried, the tighter the vines wrapped around him, and his face turned pale at a visible speed.

In just a few seconds, dozens of trainees were tied up like dumplings, their faces visibly turning pale, clearly unable to hold on for long.

The vines had an extremely wide attack range, and even Tiandao and Caroline, who were standing at a distance, were not spared.

More than a dozen thick vines suddenly sprang out from the sand beneath their feet, making a soft rustling sound, and wrapped around Caroline's waist and Tiandao's legs respectively.

Caroline moved with lightning speed, drawing three silver darts from her waist with her right hand.

With a flick of her wrist, the dart shot out with a whooshing sound, striking the vines precisely.

Zizi!

The dart's surface is engraved with fine blue circuit patterns, and the moment it pierces the vine, a silvery-white current immediately begins to spread along the vine.

Soon, the vines began to tremble violently, as if struck by lightning.

Even more bizarrely, the vines that Caroline hit emitted a mournful howl, like those of wild beasts.

As a large amount of dark red sap flowed out from the blade of the dart, several vines began to wither rapidly and eventually collapsed onto the sand, turning into a pool of viscous liquid.

The vines that attacked the Heavenly Dao were blocked by an invisible vector force field before they could even step into a five-meter radius around him.

The invisible vector force field flashed through the air. The moment the tip of the vine touched this force field, it was like hitting a high-speed rotating saw blade, instantly being cut into countless small pieces, which fell to the sand and twitched slightly.

In just one simple exchange, the immense power of Tiandao and Caroline was laid bare.

Looking at the old man not far away, the Heavenly Dao, which had been inactive until now, finally took action.

He slowly walked towards the old man, and wherever he went, countless vines that had sprouted from the sand turned into dust and scattered.

As the Heavenly Path passed by, the viewers on the 13th station were able to catch a glimpse of the 'horrific' scene on the beach from the corner of their eye.

Of the more than two hundred trainees, more than half have now been lost.

Moreover, this so-called loss is not just a simple loss of combat power, but a real price paid with 'life'.

Such intensity of battle undoubtedly far exceeded the imagination of the 13-station viewers.

After all, although they had considered that this assessment would be very difficult, what kind of assessment could cause hundreds of trainees to pay the price of their 'lives' in just one attempt?

Is this still an assessment?
This is clearly sending them here to their deaths!

It's illogical, whether it's the old man who suddenly appeared or the beach that's now turned into a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

All of this made the audience feel that the entire assessment was strangely unreasonable.
