Chapter 466 The Death of the Insect God
The battle between the five captains and the ice wave was exceptionally fierce, but they displayed the spirit of China, preventing the enemy from gaining any advantage on the battlefield.
High in the sky, Tang Jingchuan's situation took a sharp turn for the worse!
He was facing a combined attack from the three champions of the Thousand Islands!
That ordinary Articuno with the Snow Cloak ability, under Casanova's command, became like the most deadly ghost assassin.
It appears and disappears unpredictably, using the cover of wind, snow and clouds, and each appearance is accompanied by a deadly beam of freezing light or a sneak attack from absolute zero.
Tang Jingchuan was exhausted from running around, and the wings of the overlord butterfly, Ba Da Die, were mostly covered with thick frost, making its movements increasingly sluggish.
"Damn it! Damn it!" Tang Jingchuan cursed inwardly, cold sweat trickling down his back.
He is not good at head-on confrontations, but is better at using Genesect's long-range firepower for guerrilla warfare and containment, combined with Mega Heracross's burst attacks.
However, at this moment, he was tightly entangled by the three champions and their aces.
Genesect was constantly interfered with and deflected by Articuno of Risvald using its psychic powers, and it was also caught in a tough battle. It was forced to transform into its disc form and circle around Tang Jingchuan to defend itself, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.
"What's going on?" Tang Jingchuan asked anxiously. "After such a fierce battle, neither of their two Articuno have been able to trigger their Divine Beast Domain? This doesn't make sense!"
This champion of Huahai stands out from the crowd, not guarding one region but rushing to the sea to provide support and fill gaps, because his Genesis is not a natural divine beast, but a man-made object, and therefore does not trigger a divine beast field.
His original intention was to provoke the opponent into unleashing even stronger divine beast power, thereby triggering the arrival of the domain and allowing him to escape.
"Could it be... that this airspace has been completely enveloped by the power of Kyurem?"
Tang Jingchuan's guess hit the nail on the head instantly. Kyurem's arrival should have triggered Giratina to unleash the power of the Reverse World, forming a divine beast field that would bind it.
But that is the power of a first-level god; mortals would crumble at the mere touch of it!
This is precisely why Duan Suyue must be on full alert and dare not leave for even a moment—Duan Suyue is also in a bad mood at this moment. With his Aura fully activated, the One-Strike Style Martial Arts Bear Master and Keldeo are on high alert, locking their eyes on the surging black cloud sea in front of them, which contains the power to destroy the world!
It was precisely because of Kyurem and the existence of this strange blizzard that the energy threshold for triggering the Reverse World was greatly increased, which prevented the legendary Pokémon powers of the two Articuno from triggering the field.
Cold sweat soaked Tang Jingchuan's back. Mega Heracross was his only close-range barrier at this moment! The giant insect emitted a deafening screech, its huge horn gleaming with the brilliance of Mega Evolution, charging again and again at the enemies trying to surround and kill Tang Jingchuan.
It used brute force to smash through the waves of poisonous mist spewed by Mange's Galar Slowking;
Using a super angled strike to directly confront the blizzard spewed by Casavan's overlord, Ice Ghost Guard;
It even tried to force back the elusive Articuno by engaging in close combat—judging from its size, it seemed to be a fledgling that had not yet fully grown up, but some Pokémon are born in Rome, and the power of a legendary Pokémon should not be underestimated.
Casavan took the stealth ability of this mythical beast to its extreme.
Tang Jingchuan was no match for four opponents, let alone the combined attack of three champions!
A cruel glint of calculation flashed in Casavan's eyes.
He accurately captured the opening Tang Jingchuan made while protecting Butterfree, as well as the brief stiffness Mega Heracross experienced after withstanding a Psychic attack from Slowking.
"Now! Articuno, Absolute Zero! Target—Heracross!" Casavan coldly commanded.
The Snowhound, like a ghost, suddenly appeared in the snow blind spot less than ten meters behind Tang Jingchuan!
The wings condensed into an even more terrifying and refined extreme cold death ray than when they ambushed Tang Jingchuan before!
This time, the Death Ray precisely targeted Mega Heracross, whose shell had just withstood a mental shock and was now cracked!
"Hera!!" Tang Jingchuan's pupils shrank sharply, and he roared in a hoarse voice.
Mega Heracross sensed a deadly threat and roared as it attempted to turn and block with its massive horns. However, the sluggishness caused by its psychic powers made it a fatal half-beat too late!
The absolute zero cold wave, like the breath of the cosmic abyss, struck Mega Heracross precisely in the chest!
“Crack!!!!”
A chilling, freezing sound exploded instantly! Time seemed to stand still.
Mega Heracross's powerful, angularly armored body was struck, and terrifying frost spread at a visible speed from the point of impact!
The intense, tenacious insect-type life energy clashed fiercely with the extreme cold, erupting with blinding light and scattering ice crystal fragments!
Its massive horn still stubbornly points to the sky, the flames of war burning in its eyes have not yet died down, but its body seems to have been paused.
With a flash of light, the Mega Evolution state was forcibly canceled.
Then came a complete and permanent freeze.
Frost covered every inch of its shell, swallowing its last vestige of life.
The once invincible giant insect warrior, maintaining its final fighting stance, has transformed into a massive, lifelike, and tragic ice sculpture.
The flames in its eyes solidified into two desperate crimson points beneath the ice.
"No—!!!" Tang Jingchuan let out a heart-wrenching roar, piercing through the clamor of the battlefield, filled with endless anger and excruciating pain.
He watched helplessly as his most trusted partner and most powerful close-combat sword were instantly frozen and their life cut off before his eyes in order to protect him!
The dominant butterfly, the Great Butterfly, let out a mournful cry. The ice on its wings suddenly thickened, and its body swayed precariously.
A chilling smile curled at the corner of Kassavan's lips. Manji's eyes, on the other hand, flashed with undisguised pleasure.
"Hmph, a man-made god dares to contend with a true god? Dares to call himself a champion?" Risgow's cold voice came through the amplification device of Vulture Na, completely calm. "After dealing with this Genesect, you're next."
Galarian Articuno's psychic energy surged, locking onto Genesect in its disc-shaped form, poised for a new attack.
Tang Jingchuan's eyes instantly became bloodshot, and boundless anger and the pain of losing his partner almost consumed him!
Without Heracross, his situation of fighting for three championships alone has reached a dead end!
Dark clouds hung over China's defense lines, thick with murderous intent, threatening to crush all hope.
However, in this suffocating moment of despair—
"Clang...clang...clang..."
A rapid and eerie sound of hooves pierced through the howling wind and snow, echoing clearly in the icy, biting sky as it drew nearer!
