Chapter 1042 - 615: The Powerful Status of the Floating City
Zhao Zhao did not have it as easy as Helen; this was his most crucial card, but under the pressure from Helen, he had no choice but to directly use it.
As a Puppet Master, he possessed these two special skills which he obtained by completing high-difficulty chain tasks.
For a Puppet Master, they are practically Divine Skills.
One special skill, [Puppet·Shifting Position], allows him to swap positions with his controlled puppet, which is extremely important for a Puppet Master whose life-saving ability is insufficient.
The other skill is [Puppet·Enhanced Possession], enabling Zhao Zhao to borrow the strength of special puppets through possession, which to some extent compensates for the Puppet Master’s weak ability in close combat.
The Magic Puppet controlled by Zhao Zhao was exchanged from the White Dove Chamber of Commerce, and it’s quite powerful among same-rank professionals.
But when facing Silver High Rank Helen, Zhao Zhao still had no confidence.
Nonetheless, given the situation, Zhao Zhao couldn’t forsake the chance to compete for the Floating City Guard position, even if the Magic Puppet gets damaged.
At this moment, the earth-yellow Magic Puppet had completely fused into Zhao Zhao’s body, and he was enveloped by a layer of earth-yellow Magic Light, appearing extremely resilient.
With the hard-earned chance, Zhao Zhao didn’t hesitate and charged at Helen.
Meanwhile, Zhao Zhao controlled the green puppet behind Helen, waving its claws to rush at her.
In an instant, Helen was faced with attacks from both front and back by Zhao Zhao.
Mo Yun and others watched nervously, hoping Zhao Zhao could smoothly pass the examination.
At this moment, Helen looked at Zhao Zhao and smiled slightly.
Rumble～
The sound of sea waves became overwhelmingly intense, crashing against the edge of the stone platform, shattering countless crystal fragments.
At this moment, the surging waves were like blue hills rising abruptly, dozens of meters high, seemingly engulfing the entire coast.
The giant wave, with a thunderous force, slammed down, splashing colossal water blooms, like thousands of soldiers charging by, making a deafening roar.
The force of the waves was so strong it seemed to crush everything before them, displaying the ocean’s limitless power and immense momentum.
Zhao Zhao looked at the giant wave crashing toward him and Helen, calm in the distance, with a bitter smile.
How to fight this?
A moment later, the giant wave swallowed Zhao Zhao’s body and the Magic Puppet.
The huge wave initially swept toward the shore, and the crowd onshore prepared to dodge upon seeing this.
Helen lightly waved her hand, and the giant wave instantly dissipated, returning to sea water and retreating to the ocean.
Without saying much, a wave lifted Zhao Zhao and his Magic Puppet from the sea.
Zhao Zhao had been directly knocked unconscious by the giant wave, still in a dazed state, unable to move.
Helen’s power directly stunned everyone who wanted to challenge her; originally, seeing Helen as a girl and one of only two Silver Rank Professionals, they thought they might try to defeat her.
Now it seems they should better count themselves lucky...
Lis was not surprised by Helen’s strength.
Helen’s talent is [Sea Favored], gaining substantial power when fighting on the sea, and also possessing many special abilities like controlling seawater and underwater breathing.
On the sea, Helen can even entangle with ordinary Gold Level Professionals for a time.
Against the still Bronze Rank Zhao Zhao, Helen remains dominant.
Mo Yun felt pity for Zhao Zhao but soon everyone widened their eyes.
Helen controlled the wave to throw Zhao Zhao onto the Hurricane, where he joined the other Gold Rank Professionals who had passed the examination.
Is this... passing the examination?
Mo Yun looked at the unfolding scene with surprise, suddenly feeling confident.
Initially, after observing the examiners’ strength, Mo Yun thought there was no chance, but Zhao Zhao got Helen’s approval.
If Zhao Zhao could compete for a place on Floating City, maybe she would have hope too.
Zhao Zhao passing the examination also excited everyone below.
Those who came here were at least High-level Bronze Professionals, naturally confident they were not inferior to Zhao Zhao.
Lis looked at the crowd below, feeling slightly pleased.
Without commenting on others, truly, the strong among these players in their previous lives were quite exceptional and already began showing some style.
Others, forget about initiating a comeback against Helen; even withstanding Helen’s first wave of attacks would be very difficult.
Still, for Lis, players were mostly a source of harvesting experience and labor.
If players break through to Gold Level, their numerical advantage may have some effect on Lis, but currently, players are still far from that.
Lis watched the examination below; under Helen and others’ swift eliminations, it wasn’t long before the final passers were chosen.
Essentially all native strong individuals, nine Gold Level Professionals, and a few Silver Rank Mages.
Among players who passed, there were Zhao Zhao, Mo Yun, Si Lu (Embers of the Fire·Thief), Han Xing, Legend’s Beginning, Ma Tajiayang (Kunlun Mage), Dancing Sword Shadow (Kunlun Warrior).
Besides Mo Yun, the streamer, the rest were all professional-level players.
Of course, it’s not that other professional players lack interest in Floating City, it’s just too far away.
