Annie the Fire Melter Energy Manipulation Ability Energy that allows her to convert her body into Energy Transformation and unleash ultra-high-temperature flame attacks. As her Ability Energy development level increases, the temperature and controllability of the flames also continuously rise.
Once Annie Energy Transformation, she is almost like an elemental being, unaffected by physical attacks; bullets do virtually no damage to her.
To defeat her, the following methods are known:
First, exhaust her energy, preventing Annie from maintaining her Energy Transformation state.
This will take a long time, and during the process, you'll have to endure Annie's relentless bombardment.
Lancelot is ruled out immediately.
Although he was physically weak, Annie's attacks were extremely terrifying, even surpassing Walmart's Power of Disintegration, and he couldn't withstand it for long.
Second, use other types of energy to clash with and annihilate each other, such as attacking directly with an ion cannon. Even if Annie Energy Transformation, she will be instantly dispersed into atomic form and reduced to ashes.
Eliminated again!
Lancelot's energy attribute is only 13 points. Although his Energy Manipulation skills are superb and he has the secret technique of Primordial Qi Return to improve his endurance, he will probably be the first to be worn down when facing Annie's abundant fire energy of at least 35 points and awakened Attribute Talent.
Third, psychological impact or soul attack.
Needless to say, let's continue eliminating possibilities. With only 13 points in mental attribute, what a joke.
Fourth, the mystical side, such as abilities related to cause and effect, and Fate.
Still ruled out.
Fifth, force Annie out of her Energy Transformation state and back into her flesh and blood state, so that we can deal with her by physical means!
And this is precisely the method Lancelot intends to use.
As a master of Qigong Style, Lancelot not only knows how to manipulate energy, but also naturally has corresponding targeted methods at his disposal.
Otherwise, wouldn't martial artists be in a very difficult position when facing energy-based beings?
However, to achieve his goal, Lancelot must get close to Annie's body.
With that thought in mind, he put down his sniper rifle, leaped, and jumped off the bunker.
Since guns and cannons are useless, let's have a showdown between Ability Energy!
On the steel arch bridge, Annie and Lancelot approached each other.
The upcoming showdown has not only attracted the close attention of participants from both sides of the Taiwan Strait, but also countless netizens who are following the Joint Entrance Examination process. They are staring intently at their screens, afraid of missing any crucial moments. In particular, fans of Annie and Lancelot are holding their breath, afraid of affecting the showdown through the screen.
The two stood about fifty meters apart, the salty sea breeze blowing, their hair fluttering wildly.
"Hey, nice to meet you. Let me introduce myself, Annie Grotius, also known as the Fire Melter. I won't tell you my age, hehe." Annie laughed, hands on her hips, not nervous at all.
"Lancelot Terra, Thunder Demon, please enlighten me!" With that, Lancelot assumed a fighting stance.
Annie's expression also turned serious. Although she was lively and outgoing, Annie always gave her opponents 120% attention, like a lion using all its strength to hunt a rabbit.
Boom!
Lancelot launched the first attack, his Electromagnetic Armor covering his body.
Swift as lightning, ferocious as thunder, with overwhelming force.
"Wow, this sense of oppression, no wonder it's called Thunder Demon!" Annie laughed wildly. Once in battle mode, this girl seemed a bit neurotic.
With fingers spread out and hands thrust forward, orange-red pillars of fire emerged from fair and rosy palms, merged together, and shot towards Lancelot.
At the same time, rings of fiery red light rippled out from beneath Annie's feet, spreading outwards and instantly covering a distance of seventy or eighty meters, completely enveloping Lancelot.
Burning, stinging, dryness...
Lancelot felt as if he were in a furnace, his spirit, will, and even his emotions were ignited from the inside out, from the surface to the core.
"Nascent Domain!" Lancelot's pupils constricted sharply.
As expected of an SS-level potential Ability Energy, it's only at the Tier Four, yet it can already access the power of a domain.
This means that as long as Annie grows up step by step, reaching the Sanctuary is only a matter of time.
Thinking about those Ninth-Rank Transcendent who struggled to enter the Sanctuary Domain, one can only sigh that the gap between people is indeed bigger than that between dogs!
"We can't afford to be dragged into a protracted war; we must finish this quickly!" Lancelot thought to himself. Under the suppression of the Nascent Domain, his condition would gradually decline, while Annie's condition would be the complete opposite, doubling.
Of course, Lancelot could have used his Qi Web to counteract the effects of the Nascent Domain, but he didn't. Against a master like Annie, every bit of energy was precious and couldn't be wasted.
Therefore, Lancelot used only a small portion of the electrical energy to create bioelectricity, which stimulated his body, increased his nerve reaction speed, and greatly enhanced his agility to evade Annie's attacks.
The characteristics of fire-attribute energy are ferocity, explosiveness, and high lethality. Attack speed is not its strength. Therefore, Lancelot relied on his super speed and reaction speed to dodge Annie's attacks one by one and approach her methodically.
"Ugh, damn it! I refuse to believe I can't hit you! Blazing Sun Fireball!"
The ghostly Lancelot drove Annie to the brink of madness. She used a small portion of her energy to create a massive fireball, five meters in diameter. The terrifying heat caused violent ripples in the air, and even the steel pillars supporting the steel arch bridge slowly melted.
Eliminate them!
Annie spread her hands, and the giant fireball instantly split into two or three hundred smaller fireballs, which rained down like hailstones.
With a slight tremor, black craters appeared on the bridge surface.
Despite the dense barrage of attacks, Lancelot couldn't dodge them all. Twelve or thirteen fireballs struck him, shattering his Electromagnetic Armor, melting half of the metal plates, and destroying the energy circuits of the rest.
This piece of equipment is now useless.
However, although the Electromagnetic Armor was destroyed, it blocked the main attack for Lancelot, allowing him to avoid expending too much energy and stamina on defense, and he himself only suffered minor injuries and was in perfect condition.
After unleashing this "ultimate move," Annie immediately retreated.
Seeing that this move was effective, her big, watery eyes lit up slightly. She felt that she had found the magic weapon to defeat her enemy, so she made another fireball, which continued to expand.
Lancelot, however, did not give her that chance, crossing the remaining dozen or so meters in an instant.
However, Annie remained completely unfazed, instead revealing a sly smile. "You fell for it!"
After Annie finished speaking, her body immediately became entirely Energy Transformation, and the huge fireball above her head rapidly expanded, looking as if it was about to explode!
Her plan was now crystal clear: she intended to launch an indiscriminate attack.
Its Energy Transformation body is completely immune to fireball attacks.
Lancelot, however, is different. In terms of physical condition, facing the explosive attack of this terrifying fireball directly would likely result in his immediate elimination!
But... who doesn't have a few cards up their sleeve?
Lancelot's lips curled slightly upwards as he looked at Annie with a peculiar gaze.
That look seemed to say, "You're too green to try and outsmart me, little girl!"
The latter's face stiffened.
Then Lancelot reached out and slapped the small, palm-sized piece of un -Energy Transformation flesh that remained on her waist.
The next second!
Sizzle!
Countless electric currents, like a torrent rushing into the sea, poured into Annie's body.
At the same time, a deep and magnetic voice entered Annie's ears.
"Qigong Style: Confinement Shackles!"
The Confinement Shackles is a secret technique of the Qigong Style -suppressing ability. It utilizes Yuan Qi to unleash a wave of energy that blocks the energy flow within the enemy's body, achieving the purpose of silencing them.
However, Lancelot's energy attribute is too low. If he wants to perfectly seal the energy flow in Annie's body, he must be in close contact and ensure that his Energy Reserve are sufficient. Otherwise, it would be awkward if he couldn't suppress the other party's energy.
The electric current, like a spider web, instantly formed an airtight cage, sealing off all the energy nodes within Annie's body and severing all energy transmission channels.
All of this was accomplished in the blink of an eye.
Annie, whose energy had been suppressed, has returned to her physical form.
The fireball overhead, having lost its owner's control, expanded violently and was about to explode.
A flicker of fear crossed Annie's eyes. As the creator of the fireball, she knew best its destructive power. With her small frame, she was afraid she would be blown to dust.
But soon, Annie felt her waist tighten as a strong arm wrapped around her... Lancelot had her wrapped under his armpit.
Immediately afterwards, she truly experienced speed and passion.
A flash of electricity, a gust of wind, and the scenery rushed past her. The wind was so strong that Annie couldn't open her eyes. She was certain that she had never reached this speed when she was speeding.
This pose is just too embarrassing.
Even if I'm flat-chested, you don't have to be so rude, you jerk!
At least hold it in your arms!
Annie, tucked under her arm, always felt like an insignificant object, a strange and indescribable feeling welling up inside her.
Boom!
After the two ran several dozen meters, the fireball exploded, and the extremely high temperature flames melted one of the main support pillars on the right side, causing the bridge to tilt. Fortunately, there were several support pillars, so there was no danger of collapse.
"Hey, you should put me down now!" Annie yelled.
Lancelot glanced down at her, tossed her to the ground, and then punched her.
"Wait!" Annie stretched out her hand, not to beg for mercy, but to strike a pose, and said, "Come on, hit me here, a few hard hits and I'm done for!"
With a slight twitch at the corner of his eye, Lancelot delivered a punch...
Annie the Fire Melter is eliminated!
When Annie was eliminated, the internet erupted in excitement.
"Wow... that was brilliant!"
"Unexpectedly, even the Fire Melter was defeated by the Thunder Demon. Could this dark horse be going to take first place?"
"Who knows? If someone had said that before the war, I would have spat in their face, but now..."
"Unbelievable, unimaginable, is our Innovation School finally rising up? For so many years, not a single Innovation School Ability Energy has won the Joint Entrance Examination Championship. It's a long and tearful story..."
"Go Thunder Demon! We'll always support you!"
"I told you our Tie Tie is the best, but you didn't believe me. Now you do, right?"
"Get lost, you fake fan! Don't think I didn't notice you. You were the one who kept bashing our Tie Tie before, and now you're a real fan? Disgusting! Pah!"
Outsiders were just watching the spectacle, but the contestants in the second round of auditions were the ones reacting most intensely.
This was like Thunderclap from the blue!
No one expected that the first monster-level contestant to be eliminated since the start of the competition would be Lancelot, who initially hesitated and remained silent for eight days, earning him the ridicule of many as a coward.
"Annie... she lost!" The long-legged, mature woman with a gun on her back murmured to herself, her pupils dilating in disbelief.
The other teammates reacted similarly, but after the initial shock, they all thought of the same thing.
"Um, should we avenge our captain?"
Upon hearing this, the dozen or so girls exchanged bewildered glances.
One of the girls, with a gentle and charming demeanor, said timidly, "That Thunder Demon can't even beat Annie, so shouldn't we just stay here and get ourselves killed? Besides, he looks really fierce."
"Yes, yes!" The other two timid girls nodded like chickens pecking at rice.
At this moment, the busty, mature Helen took a deep breath, stepped forward, and surveyed the surroundings with her long, narrow eyes. She slowly said, "Annie has taken good care of us since the start of the competition; otherwise, with our abilities, how many of us would have made it this far?"
Under Helen's gaze, the girls all lowered their heads, their ears turning red.
Seeing this, Helen sighed and said, "I'm going to assassinate the Thunder Demon. Anyone who wants to join me can come with me. Those who don't can go their separate ways; I won't force them!"
After saying that, Helen took the lead and walked out.
The dozen or so girls exchanged glances, five of them followed Helen, while the rest remained where they were, motionless.
Public channel.
The explosive news of Annie's elimination sparked numerous heated discussions.
In the minds of all the contestants, Lancelot's threat level skyrocketed, even surpassing the other five monster-level opponents, and he directly topped the list.
The reason is simple: those five people don't have a track record of eliminating monster-level contestants.
On the pristine white sand beach, a handsome man with a full head of blond hair, azure eyes, and a chiseled face stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the ocean.
A sea breeze blew by, and he slowly turned around, speaking to the woman with wine-red hair before him, "Go find the participants who came to watch this battle. I need to find out how the Fire Melter was defeated."
The woman nodded slightly and left the beach.
Rongside frowned, sensing danger from one of the contestants for the first time.
Not just Angel Rongside.
Gourmet Jiesitan, Thorn Malisi, Berserker Jimmy, and Stormgunner Edward —these monster-level contestants all showed great caution after Lancelot eliminated Fire Melter Annie, ordering their subordinates to investigate the details of Lancelot's battle with Annie.
Back at the bunker, Lancelot pulled up the leaderboard.
After eliminating Annie, his points nearly doubled, jumping from 7th to 3rd place.
"Two places left!"
