Clovis's expression turned serious.
Because of the U-shaped web that Erwin made to trap him, he only had to go back first before being able to loop around. This might also be why Erwin was doing his best to contain him here.
Even Clovis wouldn't be able to go against them by himself unless he activated his unique state. However, no matter how hard Clovis tried to trigger it, he still had no control over that state. So Clovis had no chance of defeating them. At the same time, Clovis also didn't like to rely too much on the power that he couldn't control since it would cloud his judgment.
After looking at the situation, Clovis took a deep breath. Should he go to the side and break through the web formation? But doing so would pose a lethal threat, as there might be another hidden trick that Erwin had placed in there.
In other words, the safest place was to continue ahead, even if it meant being surrounded by those five.
Of course, it was possible for Erwin's group to injure him as much as possible without defeating him, which would give them a very big advantage during the individual match. However, he doubted Erwin's character would do something that low.
In other words, they were aiming for his life.@@@@
'In that case, I will have to use both my new footwork and swift swings...' Clovis's expression turned serious as he was ready to receive all of them. He also paid some attention to Erwin, who was chasing after him as though he were waiting for the chance to eliminate him.
"Kh!" Kanaria gritted her teeth and kept shooting at them, trying to take them down after knowing their intention from Melody.
Unfortunately, Roberto continued blocking all the bullets as they continued moving toward Clovis.
The same applied to Jay. He used his Beast Soul to catch up to them, but Tarkan easily deflected his attacks without stopping.
Clovis believed that it would be better to let his teammates continue to raise their flag. Even if they were slowed down, he should be able to withstand all five of them until his team grabbed the flag.
But when he was about to open his mouth, Erwin seemed to notice it and gave another signal to his group.
Clovis could explain it carefully, but they simply had no time.
"What's wrong, Clovis? You're panicking right now..." Erwin grinned.
Clovis clicked his tongue, realizing what Erwin had done. "You bastard. This is your plan, huh?!"
"Indeed." Erwin had a smug smile on his face as though he had just won.
Jay was rushing directly to the flag before suddenly hearing Melody's warning.
"Jay, stop right now! If you don't believe me, swing your sword vertically right now!"
Jay abruptly came to a halt. Unlike Clovis's order, this warning was much more concrete and could easily be proven.
Without hesitation, Jay swung his sword downward.
And he actually found something resisting his swing, which eventually crushed two trees next to him.
Bam!
The trees crumbled and returned to their pillar form, making Jay realize the situation he was currently in.
This was a trap. From the beginning, Erwin had reassurance that he had the ability to stop Clovis and Jay until his teammates grabbed the flag.
Aileen, who was watching the entire match from her seat, couldn't help but say, "They are trapped in his web."
