179: Chapter 179 The American version of Misaka Mikoto
Xiao Zhenghong plunged into the 'wonder (Modern) Resource Point' and began collecting the resources within.
Shortly after, other countries already had individuals who had completely occupied resource points.
Among the countries that had completely occupied resource points, some did not immediately convert the resources into power to activate their Heroic Spirit Manifestation.
A Heroic Spirit Manifestation can only be activated once; the more useful power it has, the more means the corresponding Heroic Spirit Manifestation will possess.
Therefore, many countries were thinking of occupying more resource points before activating the manifestation.
Of course, each country's strategic tactics differed.
Some countries wanted to stack more manifestation combat power, while others wanted to seize the initiative.
Two representative methods were those of Rome and USA:
Rome did not activate its Heroic Spirit Manifestation after completely occupying a 'Troop Resource Point', instead waiting to occupy another 'Ancient Martial Arts Resource Point'.
If they could obtain the power from both resource points before activating the Heroic Spirit Manifestation, then Rome's ancient Heroic Spirit [Scipio] could possess a powerful troop while also having 'Ancient Martial Arts combat power' once the manifestation was activated!
USA was the exact opposite. The Heroic Spirit in USA's Heroic Spirit pool that was the most powerful was a modern Heroic Spirit [Tesla]!
They poured the power from the occupied 'Technology Resource Point' into [Tesla]'s manifestation.
Possessing multiple inventions from the Old Era, this [Tesla]—don't let the fact that he only got one resource point fool you—his abilities were by no means singular!
'Father of Alternating Current', 'Father of the Tesla Coil', 'Father of Radio', 'Father of the Tesla Turbine'...
Each invention was one of [Tesla]'s allusions, and these allusions all fell under the 'Name of Technology', all capable of turning into [Tesla]'s flashy skills.
To say nothing else, just the title of 'Father of Alternating Current' alone allowed him to freely master the 'Power of Electric Current' after activating the technological power of the manifestation!
"The electric light dancing at your fingertips is the faith I will never change in this life!"
It was the USA version of Misaka Mikoto, belonging to that category.
USA, ranked first in total points, did not go directly to the edge of the mist to eliminate demons and earn settlement points for this scene after activating [Tesla]'s manifestation; instead, it directly began a slaughter targeting the Roleplayers of other countries!
First was Russia!
[Roleplayers] inside resource points could not be killed because after activating [Tesla]'s manifestation, resource points were not allowed to be entered.
So USA used [Tesla] to kill those Russians outside the resource points!
There was a Russian [Roleplayer] who was not a 'Multi-user' before the resource point disappeared, gaining nothing. Once the resource point completely disappeared, they were directly exposed under the eyes of the USA Roleplayer bearing the [Tesla] manifestation.
'Turbine Acceleration' + 'Power of Electric Current'.
Faced with the American bearing the power of the [Tesla] manifestation, the Russian [Roleplayer] was simply killed instantly!
The [Roleplayer] was killed, Russia's total points -1!
After killing the Russians, USA set its sights on the [Roleplayers] of other countries.
The Old Era said: When USA's enemy is dangerous, USA's ally is fatal.
This saying applied just as well to the New Era.
The French [Roleplayer], who had a good relationship with USA—kill!
The long-term ally, the British [Roleplayer], who wasn't in a resource point—kill!
They slaughtered all the way from the right side of the chessboard to the left.
Saku Kenichi knew full well how unreasonable USA was, so he hurriedly ordered,
"Everyone, hide inside the resource points!
No need to guard against the China people anymore.
Now, whenever the China people dare to show their heads, USA's [Tesla] will help us take care of them!"
There were still several resource points on the left side that had not been completely occupied, one of which had not been stepped into by people from any other country at all.
Under Saku Kenichi's order, the Sakura Country [Roleplayers] on the chessboard all moved toward it, rushing to hide inside before this madman [Tesla] arrived.
The power of technology activated [Tesla]'s ability for Turbine Acceleration. After killing the [Roleplayers] of other countries that could be killed, he finally set his sights on Zhao Hongxiu in the distance.
Although Zhao Hongxiu was not in a resource point, she was close to the edge of the chessboard. The American didn't mind the long distance and had absolutely no intention of letting Zhao Hongxiu go!
"If it were me, I wouldn't let a China Roleplayer go either," some viewers said.
"Although China isn't even in the top three in total points, China's recent performance has been too dazzling, and the Huaxia Heroic Spirits that have already appeared are too eye-catching.
If I were the Strategist for USA, I wouldn't let Zhao Hongxiu go either. Being able to reduce China's score by one means one less variable in the future!"
The viewers' thoughts were basically the thoughts of the USA [Strategist].
And Chen Aoyun, who was outside the chessboard, could do nothing about it, only able to watch helplessly as the possessor of the [Tesla] manifestation rapidly approached Zhao Hongxiu.
Not long after, Zhao Hongxiu in her soul state returned to Chen Aoyun's side.
"I'm sorry..." Zhao Hongxiu's soul-state figure carried bitterness.
Chen Aoyun shook his head, his gaze remaining steady: "It's just one point. As long as the final ranking enters the top three, it's not a loss. Our China's main act hasn't even started yet!"
It was also at this moment that more and more countries began to place their pieces for Heroic Spirit Manifestations, using the occupied resources to activate them.
Killing [Roleplayers] without manifestations was easy, but killing [Roleplayers] whose Heroic Spirit Manifestations had been activated was not so easy.
The previous slaughter had already made USA a target for everyone.
Knowing when to stop, the Americans relied on their speed to quickly withdraw from the area where resource points were gathered and moved toward the edge of the mist.
USA was about to start clearing the demons at the edge.
[Tesla]'s manifestation could only be possessed by a single USA [Roleplayer].
A total of three Roleplayers had appeared. [Tesla] could not take the remaining two Roleplayers with him, so the USA [Strategist] had them enter the resource point where the Sakura people were.
And on the chessboard, the USA [Strategist] also said to the Sakura Country [Strategist] Saku Kenichi,
"Anyway, your Sakura Country doesn't care about rankings. Once you Sakura people activate your manifestation, the safety of these two will be left to you.
If these two die before your Sakura Country manifestation is possessed, hmph..."
This was the price of being a dog for others.
Unable to see Saku Kenichi's thoughts, he just quietly nodded in acceptance.
Saku Kenichi didn't speak, however, could Fan Ling on the side let this opportunity pass?
"Tsk, being a dog so obediently, that's also a technical skill, Mr. Saku." Fan Ling's voice wasn't loud, but it pricked like a needle, "The master is outside eating meat, while the dog is in the kennel watching the house, and still has to watch the bones well for the master. Truly... dedicated."
"You..."
Saku Kenichi's face turned livid. The description of master and dog caused the conceited Saku Kenichi to lose his composure completely.
"Laugh, let's see how long you can laugh.
Once someone enters a resource point, the countdown for it to disappear will begin. Your China Roleplayers can't hide in the resource point forever without coming out.
A Roleplayer has already died, deducting one point. After the 'wonder (Modern) Resource Point' disappears, another point will be deducted.
This is a deduction of total points!
If I were you China people, I wouldn't be able to laugh out loud!"
