Full-Time Public Enemy-Chapter 668 - 497 Pecking Rice Like a Chick_4

The referee took the stage, read the rules to both competitors as a matter of routine, and finally, the match was about to begin.

Each returned to their linkers. Then, the huge gates on both sides of the arena opened. With a roar, the nine-headed serpent burst out first, roaming the field. Its massive body caused the Energy Field around the arena to shake with resounding thuds—a pre-emptive strike! Just this display of power alone gave its supporters a surge of confidence.

And the Combat Rooster... This clod strutted out lazily, seemingly uninterested in its opponent. It just stood there, glancing sideways at the agitated nine-headed serpent with a hint of disdain.

Lord Rooster is destined to become a super lifeform.

This reptile thinks it’s worthy of fighting Lord Rooster?!

In a luxurious VIP box at the top, an attendant wearing a dark red vest and black trousers pushed in a champagne trolley.

"Sirs, please enjoy," said the attendant.

Bernice waved his hand, and the attendant withdrew.

Xiaoga Hanami picked up a glass of champagne, looked down at the somewhat "listless" Combat Rooster, and said optimistically with a smile, "In terms of momentum, Chen Gu has already lost a step. His Combat Rooster seems a bit timid."

Du Lifeng was also very pleased. "Heibo’s move is very clever. By suppressing Chen Gu’s momentum first, the subsequent strife within the Bureau of Mystic Security will be more advantageous for us."

Ding Zhou, too, was very satisfied. Leaning back lazily on the soft sofa and sipping his drink, he was already prepared. After this match, as long as Xiaoga Yexiong defeated Chen Gu, he would immediately start his pursuit of the Ninth Power Level.

...

Once the link was complete, Chen Gu also took his opponent Heibo very seriously. He communicated with the Combat Rooster, preparing to personally control it to face the enemy.

But this time, the Combat Rooster sent over a disdainful thought, indicating to its master: Leave it to me.

Chen Gu was somewhat uneasy, but the Combat Rooster was full of confidence: I guarantee a win that’s clean and decisive!

Chen Gu thought about it and cautiously agreed.

Then he watched as the nine-headed serpent charged fiercely forward. A gaping maw led the way, spewing a pillar of azure flame that engulfed the Combat Rooster with a BOOM!

That clod actually didn’t dodge or evade; it just stood there and took the full brunt of the attack!

Chen Gu was so furious he almost cursed aloud. But then, the Combat Rooster sent a thought through the linker: Relax, Lord Rooster is holding steady.

Pressing its advantage, another of the serpent’s huge heads, staying close to the ground, slipped forward under the cover of the flames. It opened its mouth and unleashed another massive bolt of lightning.

BOOM—

The lightning exploded brilliantly, arcing chaotically through the sea of fire.

The lightning was brighter than the flames. The Combat Rooster, originally swallowed by the fire, reappeared within the dazzling electric light—a form wreathed in lightning.

Because of the linker, Chen Gu could feel everything the Combat Rooster endured.

The Combat Rooster’s earlier refusal to dodge the sea of flames had truly given Chen Gu a scare.

But this second time, he was much calmer. He sensed that these two attacks... had, in fact, not seriously harmed the Combat Rooster.

He relaxed, though he was also puzzled: Is this it? Or has that clod, the Combat Rooster, evolved again and become stronger?

The nine-headed serpent had hit its target with both attacks. For a moment, its confidence swelled because, in past fights, its opponents would typically have lost their ability to fight back after such a double strike.

So it lunged forward fiercely, its massive body bearing down from above, attempting to ensnare the Combat Rooster.

It was at this precise moment that the Combat Rooster moved for the first time.

THWACK!

A precise peck landed on the largest, central head of the nine-headed serpent.

A huge, scythe-like horn grew atop this head, incredibly sharp and fearsome. In past battles, it often used this single horn to deliver the finishing blow.

And the Combat Rooster’s peck landed squarely on this scythe-like horn. With a CRACK, the horn shattered, large metallic fragments reflecting the light as they scattered everywhere.

The nine-headed serpent shrieked miserably and retreated in disarray, while the Combat Rooster remained motionless amidst the flames and lightning, standing firm.

The prolonged cheers abruptly ceased. In the highest VIP box, Bernice and the others, who had been comfortably sipping champagne, all let out a soft "Hmm?" They sat up straighter, their attention now fixed on the arena.
