Goblinmon's Tactics

"Phew—fixed it."

After some hammering, Qian Lai used a wooden plank to patch up the hole in the fence.

The three little ones from his team weren't idle either.

Led by Liu Jie, they had sneaked out to gather intel.

With the camera crew following them, Qian Lai wasn't too worried about their safety.

"Run! Run!"

The Horned Beast was tugging at Liu Jie's hair, glancing behind it every now and then.

Although the Horned Beast's grip wasn't strong due to the projection, the floating camera drone was able to achieve a similar effect through psychological suggestion.

At this stage, interactions between Digital Monsters and humans were almost entirely based on the effect of psychological suggestion.

The other two children accompanying him were Ma Xingyu, a sixth-grader with a Bukamon, resembling a baby aquatic dinosaur, perched on his head.

The girl was Su Xiu, a seventh-grader, gently holding a green Digital Monster—a Seedmon, with plant sprouts growing like shoots from its head, its four short legs paddling in the air.

"Uncle Qian! We've brought two monsters over!"

The three little ones just focused on running, but the Bukamon on Ma Xingyu's head shouted to Qian Lai, trying to take credit.

"I can't beat two!" Qian Lai was taken aback, then realized what was happening.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" He shouted, dialing a number. "A Lie! You know where the gap is, right? Quickly get Elecmon over here for backup!"

"Already? I haven't even had lunch yet!"

There was a clatter from A Lie's side, then he shouted, "Qi Tian! Get Elecmon to support your Uncle Qian! Quick! Choromon, you go too!"

A Lie had just found the lighter and was about to start cooking when Qi Tian had already taken Lian Jin and Ning Jing to Liang Xing to mooch lunch.

The little rascal even tried to sneak some food to A Lie, but Liang Xing caught him.

After all, Liang Xing wasn't a monster; he allowed A Lie to eat a piece of meat to tide him over.

The viewers in the live stream were saying:

'Everyone else is on a field trip, but you're just trying to survive.'

Liang Xing couldn't let A Lie starve himself by participating in a program.

That would be too inhumane!

But Liang Xing never expected that A Lie's so-called specialty was that he couldn't cook anything but fried rice!

He had watched a lot of cooking videos, so he thought he could do it.

Fortunately, Liang Xing hadn't set the rules in stone.

Otherwise, Qi Tian and the others would definitely go hungry.

Maybe snacks could tide them over a bit, but with so much physical activity, they wouldn't last long without a proper meal.

"Uncle A Lie! Good luck!"

Qi Tian couldn't bear it, so he offered his support from afar, then ran off with Koromon in tow.

Ning Jing was helpless. She was actually very interested in cooking, but she was too young, and her family definitely wouldn't allow her to take charge in the kitchen, so she never had a chance to really try.

If Qi Tian hadn't led her to mooch a meal, she would have tried it no matter what!

Taking charge might be impossible, but giving some pointers wouldn't be a problem.

After all, she had read quite a few books and remembered the basic operations.

What a pity…

Lian Jin left his laptop behind, that was all he could do to help A Lie.

As for whether he could learn to cook by watching videos, that was A Lie's own problem.

"I really doubt you can make it until we go back tomorrow."

The camera crew followed Qi Tian and the others, leaving Liang Xing to film while making sarcastic remarks.

"Next time, prepare leftovers and eggs for me. My fried rice is really delicious!" A Lie was still arguing, but Liang Xing didn't argue with him. He just held up the camera and watched the fun.

On the other side, Elecmon received the distress signal from Qi Tian and the others and arrived on the scene first.

Goblinmon were confronting Qian Lai and the others.

Qian Lai's Digital Monster was a gray-black, smoke-type Digimon with a fire on its head, named Smokemon.

It had been staying inside the phone, but it hadn't reached the critical point for evolution yet.

The fact that they could maintain the standoff was mostly thanks to the smoke emitted by Smokemon.

The Goblinmon had been chased around by Elecmon and couldn't figure out Smokemon's abilities for a while, so they didn't dare to attack rashly.

As a result, Elecmon arrived while they were still hesitating, and the two Goblinmon pushed each other, neither daring to step forward.

Well, then they just wouldn't.

Goblin Strike!

--Which is basically throwing a fireball at high speed.

Two fireballs aimed at Elecmon missed, and the newly repaired fence was destroyed again.

Qian Lai was curious how the buildings destroyed by these Digital Monsters would be restored.

He saw Elecmon could get out through the destroyed fence and curiously wanted to go take a look.

But Goblinmon didn't attack the oncoming Elecmon, instead aiming at Qian Lai.

--Clearly, it doesn't want you to see.

Goblinmon didn't really intend to stop him, it was just an instinctive reaction driving it to prevent real things from approaching the shattered illusion.

But what it didn't expect was that Elecmon would protect Qian Lai.

Of course, it wasn't really protecting Qian Lai.

It was just that Smokemon was near Qian Lai, and if it ignored Goblinmon's attack, Smokemon would be affected sooner or later.

But whatever the reason, Goblinmon found Elecmon's weakness, so of course it would try to exploit it.

Before, it couldn't win, first because Elecmon absorbed more data, so naturally its strength was greater.

Second, because Elecmon was particularly agile, Goblinmon's fireballs often accidentally injured its companions when Elecmon deliberately guided them.

As a result, it ended up being chased and beaten.

But Elecmon had to protect the Digital Egg, and its strength was just a trick to win with fewer forces.

In a real head-on collision, Elecmon couldn't possibly be a match for multiple Goblinmon.

"Uncle Qian! Hide quickly!"

The Digital Monsters didn't rashly interfere in Elecmon's battle; they could see that they were actually holding it back.

Qian Lai's eyes were also blinded by curiosity, and of course he wouldn't stand there like a fool to be a target after being reminded.

He knew his limits; Elecmon wouldn't protect him for no reason, unless—it was actually protecting Smokemon!

Just in time, Qian Lai also wanted to try what the feeling of fatigue inflicted by a Digimon attack was like.

"You follow A Jie."

Smokemon reluctantly floated to Liu Jie's side, while Qian Lai rushed out in the other direction.

Here it comes!

Qian Lai knew it was coming, but the fireball was too fast, he couldn't react at all, and was hit head-on!

Fortunately, his guess was correct, Elecmon didn't care about Qian Lai's life or death at all.

The moment Goblinmon was distracted by attacking Qian Lai, the special move Flickering Lightning Bolt was activated!

The current wrapped around Elecmon slammed into Goblinmon, and this was the first time it had hit Goblinmon so directly.

Both being Child level Digimon, one attack wasn't enough to defeat the enemy, but before it could pursue, the same explosion sounded from the direction of the Digital Egg.

"Damn it! A feint!"

Qian Lai's head was buzzing, and the sudden feeling of fatigue almost knocked him down.

But with a little endurance, he could barely hold on.

"Go provide support! Don't worry about me!"

The other Goblinmon ran away, completely ignoring its downed companion.

Elecmon hesitated for a moment, facing Goblinmon's dying counterattack, it didn't have the confidence to make a quick decision.

Return to support!
