Chapter 336 Robbery
With Jiang Shaoxu's assistance, Lin Chen had already picked up quite a few treasures before even starting to rob other countries' teams, totaling at least 1.5 to 1.6 billion, which made Lin Chen very happy.
Judging from their gains, it shouldn't be a problem for the other temporary teams to each gain five or six hundred million. After this treasure hunt, I might be able to get another Digimon to undergo a Mega Evolution.
"Lin Chen, I found a team. They just came out of a cave and look like they had a good haul. Should we challenge them to a duel?" Jiang Shaoxu suddenly said.
"No problem, we've been in here long enough, it's time to reap the spoils." Lin Chen nodded and rode Garurumon toward the direction Jiang Shaoxu had indicated.
In a dark forest, a man with long brownish-yellow hair was running wildly through the woods with four companions.
"Our luck has finally turned around! This time, our haul is worth at least two billion. I never expected the event organizers to hide so many things together," a short, thin man said excitedly.
"The harvest was great, but the place was also dangerous enough. If we hadn't devised a plan to lure and trap the guards, we might not have been able to get these treasures," said the man with brownish-yellow hair.
Just as the five people were still immersed in joy, a tall and slender figure rushed out from the dark forest beside them and landed in front of them.
"This road is mine, this tree is mine, if you want to pass, leave your toll!" Lin Chen rode on Garurumon, smiling as he looked at the five people in front of him, as if they were shining pieces of gold.
The five people in front of him only showed surprise at Lin Chen's sudden appearance, without any other reaction.
"They're not Chinese, how could they understand what you're saying?" Jiang Shaoxu was speechless, and then translated what Lin Chen said into English.
"It was you! You can't escape now!"
As soon as the brown-haired man finished speaking, the five people in the group dispersed and surrounded Lin Chen, Jiang Shaoxu, and Garurumon.
"Are all young people these days so fierce? They even dare to double-cross me?" Lin Chen was speechless. Although he had only participated twice, both times he had performed admirably. Normally, the students in the National University Tournament would run away when they saw him, so there was no reason for them to surround him.
As soon as Lin Chen finished speaking, the young man with brownish-yellow hair released a summoning spell, summoning a wolf beast that was also a commander-level beast.
"You didn't expect that, did you? You stole that wolf soul before, but I still managed to train my contracted beast to the commander level. With him holding your wolf beast back, we now have a five-on-two advantage. You should hand over the treasures you've collected." The brown-haired man, Ark, said.
Not long ago, they tried to rob Mo Fan from the Chinese team, but the two of them escaped when they weren't careful. Now that they've run into the members of the Chinese team again, they're sure to loot the treasures and kick them out of the treasure hunt.
"So it was you." Lin Chen recognized Ark now, a disdainful smile playing on his lips. "Trying to rob me? You must be half asleep."
As soon as Lin Chen finished speaking, he threw a punch at Ark. A long fiery dragon roared out, opened its mouth, and was about to swallow Ark whole.
Seeing this, Ark's other teammates prepared to unleash magic to attack Lin Chen, but instantly felt a mental fluctuation envelop their hearts, disrupting all the star formations they had arranged.
"It's a mind-based ability!" Ark shouted.
Ark's heart tightened. He had previously used his numerical advantage to continuously cast spells on Lin Chen and his companion, preventing Lin Chen from summoning the undead leader.
Unexpectedly, the woman Lin Chen brought with him was a mind mage, and a single mind spell completely thwarted his plans.
This was all because he hadn't paid attention to the Chinese team's battles before. Apart from a few iconic figures on the Chinese team, he had no idea what kind of strength the other students possessed.
"superior!"
Just as Ark was preparing to have his Commander-class Wolfmon fight Garurumon, he discovered that, for some unknown reason, an adorable kitten appeared on the battlefield, knocking his Wolfmon to the ground with a single blow, and then defeating all his teammates.
"How can you possess two contracted beasts and summon them without even drawing a summoning star map?" Ark's face was filled with disbelief. He was also a powerful summoner, but what he saw was completely illogical.
"Could this be your divine talent?" Ark continued to ask.
Lin Chen clearly did not intend to answer him, but instead had Gatomon search their bodies for treasures. In no time, all the treasures that Ark and the other five had just obtained were found.
"I'm pretty lucky. On my first try, I got nearly two billion worth of treasures, more than I could find on my own." Lin Chen was extremely excited.
"You—" You deserve to die! Yak was furious and for a moment didn't know what language to use to insult Lin Chen.
"I should have sent you away since you insulted me, but I'll let you off this time because you provided so many treasures." Lin Chen said, then summoned Gatomon back, held it in his arms, and rode Garurumon away.
However, just as Lin Chen was about to disappear into the dense forest, his voice reached the ears of Ark and the others: "I hope that when we meet again, you will have collected just as many treasures."
In addition to the private spaces, there are rest areas for each country.
The instructors from Canada and the United States were furious to see their students being robbed by Lin Chen.
Previously, students from their own country robbed members of the Chinese National Government Team, but the robbed team escaped.
As a result, when they encountered the Chinese team's robbery, their own students didn't even get to use half of their true strength before the Chinese students stole all their treasures.
This stark contrast was something they couldn't accept for a while.
However, this experience also made other countries realize the strength of this year's Chinese athletes.
Currently, in the Academy Tournament, a summoning mage who possesses a contracted beast and a summoned beast with the strength of a commander is considered extremely powerful. Lin Chen alone possesses no fewer than three summoned creatures with the strength of a commander.
In this unrestricted treasure hunt, Lin Chen can be considered the undisputed champion.
"Do you think Lin Chen will be able to take away the treasures that have been lost on the battlefield in previous competitions in this treasure hunt?" Chief Pang Lai suddenly asked with some anticipation.
"It's possible, but does Lin Chen have the means to break the barrier?" Han Ji asked.
"We don't know, let's wait and see," Chief Pang Lai said.
