I'm in NetKing, and I have a tennis mini-game

Chapter 421: Nioh's Phantom, Stunning Skills

"how is this possible?"

Seeing Niou easily counterattack [Tail of Innocence], Evangelos was instantly surprised.

"That high school student couldn't do it, but a mere junior high school student managed to do it?"

"Ah."

Seeing the surprise of the other junior high school student, Liu shook his head and laughed in the Japanese team's rest area: "To others, this skill is indeed very sharp. But Niou, during this period of time, he should have watched other people's skills a lot."

Nioh Phantom is not so much a natural ability as it is Nioh's own talent. He watched a lot of videos of other people's games and imitated their tennis style through his own talent.

What the Japanese team has the most is all kinds of tricky and strange skills.

"really."

Hear the words.

Sanada beside him nodded and said, "Niou, even among high school students, can definitely be considered a technical all-rounder."

Sanada attaches great importance to Nioh.

After the national competition, especially after entering the U17 stage, the opponent no longer hides his talent. The tennis ability he showed is not even inferior to the level of the Big Three.

Sometimes he wondered, if the other party had not hidden their strength and talent at the beginning and had fully displayed them, Rikkai University would not be the Big Three, but the Four Heavenly Kings.

"Evan."

At this time, a powerful voice rang out on the court: "Focus and don't be distracted by your opponent."

"Okay, I know."

Hearing what his senior said, Evangelos immediately perked up. He fixed his eyes on the two opponents, and when he saw Kimijima running towards the tennis ball, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes: "If I'm not mistaken, Hera-senpai's counterattack still carries the spin of [Innocent Tail], so..."

He secretly thought that the high school students on the other side would definitely suffer a loss on this ball again.

Bang!
But next second.

A hint of pale yellow light suddenly appeared beside Evangelos without any warning.

"what?!"

Looking at the tennis ball flying past him, Evan showed an expression of disbelief on his face.

He didn't react at all.

and.

After seeing the tennis ball bounce out, he instinctively wanted to swing his racket back, but was shocked to find that he couldn't move!

"15-15!"

The referee spoke and the stadium suddenly became quiet.

Representatives from various countries, as well as the audience around the scene, all looked at Kimijima in surprise.

"It seems that he was just careless just now and didn't react?"

The Greek team's staff officer Laercius frowned subconsciously.

"That's how it should be."

Next to him, a tall and straight young man with long blond hair hanging down on both sides and a distinguished temperament nodded and said, "After all, they are high school students, so their sense of competition on the court is not that weak. But that junior high school student was able to beat Hercules's ball skills in the first try, which is quite remarkable."

Hermes Kounellis.

17 is old.

Vice-captain of the Greek team.

A top player whose strength is second only to Zeus.

He was arranged to play in this match, which shows how determined the Greek team is to defeat the Japanese team.

"A junior high school student from the Japanese team?"

Hear the words.

Zeus folded his hands in front of him and raised his eyebrows slightly: "From this point of view, he should be in the same class as that person, right?"

Ok?
Zeus' words cheered up everyone around him, including Hermes.

They naturally knew who their captain was referring to as "that person". After yesterday's warm-up match, the opponent had become one of the most eye-catching star players in this World Cup.

After all, although Qp is not a professional player, his status as the most outstanding player in the German Tennis School is no less important.

therefore.

Everyone, including Hermes, had done a thorough study of Ishikawa. Knowing how strong the opponent was, the Greek team's head coach placed Zeus and Hermes in the same team.

But it's a pity.

Judging from the current situation, the super rookie of this World Cup did not appear in this game.

"If that's the case, then this blue-haired guy is indeed worth a closer look."

Hermes nodded slightly.

Having also been through the junior high school years, he, who participated in the Greek junior high school league, knew very well what a driving effect the emergence of a player who was far superior to his peers would have.

Like Zeus.

Before he was promoted to the Greek U17 team, the team was only ranked th in the world. But when Zeus became the team's representative and even a core player, the Greek team's ranking continued to rise.

Everyone knew that Zeus played a key role in this.

Many of Zeus's former followers have now become the main players of the Greek team. If nothing unexpected happens, they will also be his strongest supporters in the next World Cup in two years.

Bang!
At this moment.

Hercules served again.

The powerful serve hit Kimijima's backhand hard. The landing point was very tricky, and the spinning effect of the tennis ball after it bounced was even more intense than before.

Bang!
but.

Without saying anything, Kimijima directly and decisively hit the tennis ball back.

"I'm sorry, but the same trick won't work on me a second time."

Kimijima was very confident.

He was an all-round player, and he was indeed caught off guard just now, so he was fooled by his opponent's moves. Now, after getting serious, he showed his super elite strength.

Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The two quickly duel.

Hercules continued to increase his strength, but was defeated by Kimijima with his superb skills. For a while, the two fought hard.

"Are the high school students on the Japanese team of this caliber so high?"

Hercules was very surprised.

With the opponent's strength, even in Greece U17, they can definitely be ranked in the top. However, such a player did not play in the previous warm-up match, which shows that the depth of the Japanese team's bench is more terrible than they imagined.

Bang!
"15-30!"

At this time.

Kimijima took advantage of his opponent's distraction and shot an arrow, catching Hercules off guard.

"This guy"

The Greek team's expert couldn't help but narrow his eyes: "His grasp of the timing of the game is indeed extraordinary."

After the head-on battle, his evaluation of his opponent improved significantly. However, Kimijima's strength was still beyond his expectations.

Bang!
When the two were deadlocked again, Kimijima suddenly increased his batting speed, creating a time difference and scoring from Hercules again.

"15-40!"

"Damn it."

Hercules, who lost points again due to negligence, looked very unhappy. Then, his eyes became sharp, and his aura was much stronger than before.

boom!
The fifth goal.

The Greek player finally showed his true strength. A heavy ball hit in from a tricky angle, and even though Kimijima reacted, his racket was almost knocked out of his hand.

There was no other choice, so he had to settle for the next best thing and simply hit the tennis ball over.

Bang!
But never thought about it.

Hercules had anticipated this and attacked suddenly, delivering a powerful blow that pierced through Kimijima's defense head-on.

"30-40!"

"Ooooooooo!!!"

"Greece!"

"Greece!"

"Greece!"

Hercules' strong score greatly boosted the morale of the Greek players.

"The opponent's momentum is going up."

In the Japanese team's rest area, Qian said with a slightly serious expression: "If we let them get another point, the points advantage accumulated by Kimijima-senpai and Nioh in the early stages will be gone. The opponent will probably take advantage of this momentum to launch a strong attack and change the score in one go!"

When masters compete, victory or defeat often lies in the details. Even the slightest change can change the situation.

Obviously.

Just as Qian thought, Hercules was ready to win the first game in one go.

boom!
Suddenly, Hercules hit the tennis ball.

The ball was powerful, but with an extra bit of sharp rotation, it fell towards Niou's backhand right side.

"Ah."

Seeing the tennis ball falling rapidly, Ren Wang understood what the other party was thinking. He smiled faintly and swept the ball horizontally.

There was a snap.

Hercules' extremely powerful shot was easily broken.

"This short ball?!"

Seeing this, Evangelos, who was playing as a forward, suddenly contracted his pupils.

The tennis ball flew over the net and fell slowly like an autumn leaf. It was neither fast nor slow, and there was no trace of Hercules' powerful serve.

Tap! !
After a brief shock, Evangelos immediately moved forward and hit the ball out before the tennis ball landed for the second time.

Bang!
only.

The flaw he exposed was seen through by Kimijima at a glance. With a powerful backhand strike, Evangelos was stunned again.

"Game!"

"Japanese team, 1-0, exchange positions!"

End of game.

Kimijima and Niou break their opponent's serve.

This surprised the fans and players of the Greek team. You know, this serve was not from the junior high school student Evangelos, but from the high school student Hercules!
"The situation is not good."

Outside the court, Greek team's staff officer Larsius frowned and said, "It seems the opponent is targeting Evan."

"Ah."

Hermes nodded. "This is a common tactic used in doubles. Apparently, the opponent thinks that Evan is a suitable breakthrough point. We should make use of this and take control of the situation of the game."

Hear the words.

The expressions of the other players on the Greek team turned serious.

Because once Evangelos was defeated, Hercules would be left alone and it would be difficult for him to carry on. They would most likely lose this match.

This is not a warm-up match, but the main match of the World Cup.

The victory or defeat of every game is very crucial. However, the Greek team sent out the first and second top players in this game.

If they lose all of this, they will become representatives of the first round of the World Cup.

"It seems that something must be done."

When they exchanged positions, the bearded Hercules took a deep breath, as if he had made some kind of decision, and his eyes were fixed on the blue-haired junior high school student opposite him.

"Second round."

"Kimijima of Japan serves, and the game ends."

soon.

The game begins again.

Bang!
Kimishima's shot was merciless. A high-speed serve with super rotation was like a heavy hammer, directly nailing the middle school student Evangelos on the opposite side stiffly on the spot.

"15-0!"

"hiss"

Seeing the Japanese player serve an ace right at the start, many spectators around the scene couldn't help but gasp.

"It's a terrible situation."

Hercules, who also saw the ball, showed a strong look of worry in his eyes.

The strength of the opponent meant that he had to defeat the opponent's junior high school student in a short period of time, and then give full play to the strength of his own doubles team to have a slight chance of winning.

Bang!
At this time.

Kimijima serves again.

The powerful spiral serve landed, and the pressure of the ball was released instantly, sweeping up most of the dust on the ground, covering the figure of Hercules.

"Well done!"

The opponent let out a low shout and immediately made a hitting motion. With a crisp bang, the tennis ball was hit back by him and flew straight towards where Ren Wang was.

It is clear.

His target is Nioh.

"Boy, I'm sorry I had to do this."

After hitting the tennis ball, Hercules' eyes became sharp: "I have a reason not to lose this game!"

Bang!
At this time.

Niou hit the tennis ball over.

Seeing this, Hercules closed his eyes with a little pain: "God, please forgive me for my next move."

boom!
Thoughts turned.

He swung the racket violently, and the tennis ball hit directly towards Niou.

"Chasing ball?!"

Seeing this merciless ball, many people's faces changed immediately. The ball was too fast, and it would be difficult for ordinary people to react.

Bang!
but.

Niou's body shape changed very quickly. He quickly stepped back and moved sideways. After making room, he hit the tennis ball back.

"This force-releasing technique again!"

Feeling that the flying tennis ball no longer had the impact he had when he swung his racket, Hercules' expression suddenly became serious.

He knew that he had underestimated the opponent's strength.

but.

He really had reasons not to lose this game.

"call!"

Taking a deep breath, Hercules' eyes suddenly became serious.

hum!
next moment.

A silver-white light burst out from his body. After the silver light enveloped the tennis ball, there was a loud bang. A silver light that was extremely fast suddenly shot out.

"Appeared!"

Feeling the sharpness of this light, the forward Evangelos couldn't help but be inspired: "Hera-senior's [Olympian Silver Light]!!!"

This is a fairly advanced ability.

In the Greek team, only a few experts can master this move.

therefore.

In Evangelos's opinion.

When Hercules used this move, the outcome of the game was determined.

"but."

Thinking of this, a smile flashed in his eyes: "Being able to push Senior Hera to such a point should be enough for you to be proud. Hmm?"

hum!
but.

Before Evangelos could finish his words, he saw a dazzling silver-white light suddenly burst out from the body of Niou opposite him.

Whoosh!
next moment.

A sharp light shot out.

The speed was so fast that Hercules, who was caught unprepared, was shocked.

Click.

At this moment, there was a sound of something being cut.

Then, under the horrified gazes of the others, especially Evangelos, a strand of curly golden hair slowly fell down from the right side of Hercules, who looked like an ancient Greek sculpture.

"What was that just now?"

Hercules' pupils also contracted rapidly.

"Wait. What's going on with that guy?"

Suddenly.

When he looked at King Ren again with doubt, he saw a figure wearing the same red and black jacket but with black hair.

"Ishikawa Shin?"

Off the field.

Greek team's staff officer Larsius blurted out instinctively.
