Chapter 212: Perception Awakening
After the initial successful sneak attack, the Husky became more cautious in his attacks and would not attack easily no matter how Alpha tried to probe.
However, Alpha had no intention of waiting any longer. He stomped his feet heavily, and countless bone spurs wrapped in the power of shadow broke through the metal ground and drilled out, instantly covering the entire field.
It was the Shadow Lotus that Alpha had not used for a long time.
Forced by the Shadow Lotus, the werewolf transformed from the Husky could no longer hide. It emerged from the ground with a roar, and the power of the Demon-Destroying Roar was immediately attached to the werewolf, increasing both its speed and strength.
Afterwards, the werewolf nimbly avoided the bone spurs that were trying to grab it, easily swam in front of Alpha, and launched a series of attacks on Alpha by waving its claws. It was obvious that it had no intention of letting Alpha swing the sword.
But Alpha did not give in. He simply threw away the gravity sword and controlled the other swords to attack the Husky. At the same time, his arms turned into bone blades and entangled with the Husky.
Although Alpha is superior to the Husky in both speed and combat experience, the werewolf transformed by the Husky can always predict Alpha's actions one step ahead, and both its offense and defense seem to be waiting for Alpha, and it actually takes the initiative of the battle from Alpha.
Crunch.
Looking at the werewolf in front of him who seemed to have been reborn, Alpha's aura also changed little by little. His attack speed, which was already beyond the ability of visual capture, increased again. Bai Qi even felt that Alpha's arm seemed to have disappeared.
After the two sides exchanged dozens of moves in close combat, the flustered werewolf was finally hit by the gravity sword. The sudden increase in gravity made him lose the ability to fight back, and he was directly locked by Alpha's countless swords.
Faced with the sharp blade that locked his entire body, the werewolf ruthlessly gave up resistance and pretended to surrender. At the same time, his body kept twisting, as if he was trying to change back to his original appearance.
Then at this moment, the werewolf suddenly exploded, and the golden ether wrapped all the sharp blades and gravity swords like waves, forcibly pulling them into the ground, but there was no trace of the Husky.
This werewolf was apparently just a fake body created by Shukebeta using ether gold.
Alpha realized that he was being plotted against and felt a little surprised. He then instinctively swung the bone blade to chop behind him.
Sure enough, a werewolf appeared behind him, but it was still not the real Husky. It was also just a fake body made of ether gold, and it spread to Alpha and wrapped him up little by little.
Faced with this situation, the soul fire in Alpha's eye sockets surged, and rich shadow power emanated from his crystal bones, constantly corroding the surrounding ether gold. At the same time, Alpha's bones continued to entangle and expand, obviously trying to break free by force.
Then at this moment, a red dot appeared above Alpha's head. Following the direction of the red dot, they could see a two-headed wolf carrying a sniper rifle and aiming at them at the location of a turret.
Ahhhh!
(Stinky bones, I beat you~)
Beta, who had locked onto Alpha's only weakness, was obviously a little bit cocky, but Shuke remained very serious and said, "Don't be too arrogant. Our attack may not be able to break through Alpha's skull defense."
As the trained monitor of all four pets, it knew that Alpha had deliberately strengthened the defense of his head. Even one of the runes Bai Qi arranged for Alpha was solidity.
If this shot fails to break through Alpha's defense, their position will be exposed and they will definitely be beaten up by Alpha.
After all, you can't expect a scientific researcher to fight against a professional fighter.
Woof woof!
(It’s okay, Stinky Bones will definitely not be able to escape our control.)
As soon as he finished speaking, Alpha, who was originally tightly controlled by the Ether Gold, was suddenly shrouded in a shadow. His body seemed to have turned into a shadow, and the Ether Gold that was originally tightly wrapped around him was gone.
Awww!
(Oh no! Stinky Bones has tricked me!)
Seeing Alpha disappear, Beta instinctively realized that something was wrong. Before he could change his position, he felt a chill on the back of his neck and a bone blade was already against his head.
Crunch.
(You lose.)
Beta turned around and looked at Alpha, who had a stern look on his face, and lowered his head dejectedly. Shuke shook his head silently and said, "We lost."
Snap! Snap! Snap! …
"Yes, it was a very exciting battle."
Bai Qi applauded and smiled at the two pets, saying, "You two both performed well. Alpha's fighting ability and Shukebeta's tactics are both worth learning."
Click, click.
(Although I can't understand Gamma, he's really amazing.)
Bloopers!
(Alpha has great combat experience. Delta needs to learn from him.)
Gamma and Delta also agreed with Bai Qi's statement. Although Alpha suppressed some of its strength, this small-scale battle could not bring out the advantages of the Husky Mechanical Lord's skills. It was barely fair.
But it is obvious that Alpha is more skilled.
Since Alpha gradually changed his fighting style, Bai Qi rarely thought about Shadow Lotus' ability to dissolve himself into the shadows, but unexpectedly, Alpha still hadn't forgotten it.
As expected, he was born an assassin, so he must not forget his roots.
Aa ...
(My legendary materials are gone...)
Beta hung his head, looking as if he had lost all desire to live. His state of mind, which had been elevated by chanting Buddhist scriptures, was completely shattered, and he sounded as if his faith in Taoism had been broken.
Bai Qi patted the Husky on the head and consoled him: "Don't be so listless, you've performed well, keep working hard next time."
Shukebeta's performance was indeed brilliant, whether it was the tactical arrangements or the close combat with Alpha just now. If Alpha's speed had not been a bit excessive, they might have been able to keep fighting for a while longer.
Moreover, Beta's ability to predict in advance is indeed amazing.
Huh?
(I can’t beat him now, so how about next time? God knows how much stronger this stinky bone will become after eating another legendary resource.)
Beta still couldn't let it go and ruthlessly tore open the cruel reality.
"That's true."
Bai Qi nodded slightly. Although he had not yet decided which aspect of Alpha to strengthen, no matter what it was, Alpha's combat power would increase dramatically, and he would be even more unable to fight.
"Well... let's do this. From now on, we will follow the rounds. Alpha has already won the first round of resource competition, so he can't participate in the subsequent games. He can only continue to participate after the first round is completely over."
His original intention of starting this intra-team competition was just to give the pets some motivation and promote each other. It is impossible for him to favor any one pet in particular. Everything that is needed will be achieved, it is just a matter of time.
In addition to the basic benefits for each pet, all you need to do is divide the competition for resources into several rounds, and the winner will automatically withdraw from that round.
“This arrangement works.”
Hearing Bai Qi's arrangement, Shuke nodded, and Beta immediately became alert and looked at Gamma and Delta with malicious eyes.
If it can’t beat that stinky bone, can it beat these two juniors?
Seeing Beta successfully walk out of the haze, Bai Qi also smiled, and suddenly thought of Beta's series of predictions just now, and said: "Beta, has your perception skill awakened?"
Huh?
(Awakening? When?)
"Forget it, I'll just watch it myself."
Bai Qi sighed helplessly and put his hand on the Husky's head.

No wonder he dodged so promptly , it turned out he had sensed it in advance with his mind’s eye.
Bai Qi nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Gamma and Delta and said, "It's your turn next, get ready."
The two pets nodded repeatedly and were about to enter the battlefield, only to find that the battlefield was already in a mess and it was impossible to fight properly.
"Ahem, Alpha, get the six zombies to clean up the place."
Crunch.
(Okay, boss.)
After receiving the order, Alpha immediately summoned the six zombies. The six zombies, who were the actual builders of the base, immediately picked up various tools and began the repair work skillfully.
About half an hour later, the originally dilapidated battlefield was repaired. Although some facilities had not been repaired, it was sufficient for fighting.
"This craftsmanship is top-notch. If I were not afraid to expand the scale, who would be my rival in the infrastructure work of this federation?"
Bai Qi was very satisfied with the work of the six zombies. He looked at the two pets entering the battlefield one by one and said, "Are you all ready?"
Click, click!
(Gamma is ready!)
Bloopers.
(Delta will try.)
"Okay then, the second match, Basic Welfare Group: Gamma vs. Delta, the match begins!"
Compared to the extremely fast-attacking Alpha and Husky, the fighting pace of Delta and Gamma was obviously much slower.
Since the only attack method was brute charge, Delta did not launch an attack lightly, but instead circled around Gamma cautiously, looking for an opportunity to attack.
Gamma was also happy with this, and he deployed the poison aura, energy absorbing aura and the newly mastered sacrificial aura one by one.
After the green, red and dark haloes unfolded, the atmosphere on the battlefield changed instantly, and a burning breath with a strange smell gradually drifted towards Bai Qi and others.
Woof woof!
(Poison gas? When will Gamma release poison gas?)
Beta was the first to notice the problem and quickly blocked his breathing, while Bai Qi immediately grasped the green dragon scales and expelled the poisonous gas.
"Could it be that the poison of the Toxic Aura was roasted into poison gas by the Sacrifice Aura? The attack range has been directly upgraded from the plane to the space~"
