"Mr. Mezzo wants to take action? Hasn't he not been on a mission for a long time? He, can he still fight?"
Genos couldn't help but feel worried when he heard Sephiria urging Mezzo to take action.
Genos became a LV4 master at a young age, and this was not without cost.
Taking the younger generation of Japan as an example, Busujima Saeko's talent and qualifications can be considered very high. Not only Busujima Shoichiro has high expectations for Busujima Saeko, but even the world-famous actor Hōnosuke also favors Busujima Saeko. But even so, Busujima Shoichiro's expectation for Busujima Saeko is that she can become a great swordsman by the age of twenty-five.
Most of the other younger generation of Japanese martial arts masters such as Tetsuken and Onimaru Take are expected to break through and become great swordsmen at this age.
Most of the members of the "Guardians of Time" are around twenty-five years old, but all of them are already experienced among LV4 masters. Could it be that their talents surpass Busujima Saeko and others? Not really.
Different from the orthodox martial arts of the Central Plains that emphasizes "strengthening the foundation and cultivating the body", the European martial arts practice is more eager for quick success and advocates maximizing the human body's potential at a young age, so that martial artists can have strong strength at a young age.
The advantage is that martial artists can reach their peak strength in a short period of time. The disadvantage is that once these martial artists who rely on accelerating their potential to achieve rapid growth pass their prime, their combat effectiveness will decline rapidly, and most of them will not live long.
It is not without reason that Tiayu's "artificial warrior technology" was favored by many Western financial groups, because in their view, martial artists are such consumables.
At this point, the heretics in the Central Plains are better than the European martial artists. Although they are also fishing from the marsh and maximizing their potential, they are "sustainably fishing from the marsh", and after they become "magic", they will find ways to make up for their previous losses. To fill in, it is not uncommon in the Central Plains to find old demons who are quite old but very powerful.
As the eldest among the "Guardians of Time", Mezzo is already over sixty years old, and his body functions have already entered a period of decline. The other members of the "Guardians of Time" respect Mezzo and call him " "Teacher" because most of them had been cared for and taught by Mezo when they were newcomers, and they didn't think Mezo could be that strong - Mezo's age was there, unless Mezo could surpass the limits of the human body and reach LV5. level, otherwise the deterioration of physical functions after the age of forty is something that every European martial artist cannot escape.
Mei Zuo hit his shoulder, suddenly turned into an afterimage and jumped in front of Yan Kai, and slapped Yan Kai.
The palm technique was extremely fast, and there was no sense of weakness like that of the skinny old man before. Even Yan Kai couldn't help but cheer up, raised his wrist and swung Mei Zuo's palm away, only to find that Mei Zuo's palm technique was flexible and changeable. The changes were complicated and dazzling, and he would reach out to Lala from time to time, trying to catch Lala behind Yan Kai - he had not forgotten that the mission this time was to take Lala away, not to be with Yan Kai. Fight to death.
"Bagua Wandering Dragon Palm?"
Yan Kai was slightly surprised.
He recognized the palm technique used by Mei Zuo, which was the Wudang Bagua Wandering Dragon Palm. Although it was not very authentic, Yan Kai was surprised by the fact that a foreigner performed the Wudang sect's martial arts.
"Hehe, I really can't hide it!"
Mezuo laughed twice, but there was no smile at all in his eyes.
Thirty years ago, all the "Guardians of Time" of that generation also gathered together to deal with a Central Plains person. In the end, only one of the twelve "Guardians of Time" survived, Meizuo. This was not Meizuo because he was stronger than the other ten. One member is stronger only because Mezo's shots are slower than theirs.
They were quick in their attacks and died the moment they took action. Mezzo was slow in his actions. After seeing all his companions fall to the ground, the killing move he had planned involuntarily stopped, so he survived.
Considering the strength gap between the two sides and the serious damage to the organization's vitality, the Council of Elders did not blame Mezzo for his performance in that mission, but Mezzo still fell into a great psychological shadow and has since suffered from hearing problems. The word "Central Plains" causes a strange disease of recurrence of old injuries - even though he was not injured at all in the war thirty years ago.
In order to overcome the fear of the "Central Plains", Meizuo worked hard. He once secretly sneaked into the Central Plains and spent a lot of money to buy a martial arts secret book in the Central Plains, which is now the "Bagua Wandering Dragon Palm".
Although his fear of the "Central Plains" did not diminish after learning the "Bagua Dragon Palm", he successfully mastered the power of "gods" through the "Bagua Dragon Palm" secret book, and followed some of the methods recorded in the secret book. After conditioning his body, although he is now over sixty years old, his physical condition is still much the same as when he was in his prime. Moreover, due to the increase in experience and knowledge, his true strength is much stronger than it was thirty years ago.
In line with his loyalty to the organization, after knowing the benefits of "Bagua Dragon Palm", he immediately handed over the secret book of "Bagua Dragon Palm" to the Elders Association, hoping that the Elders Association would include it in the training tutorials for the organization's combatants. middle.
But to Mezuo's dismay, the Council of Elders did not adopt this suggestion, which Mezuo considered to be of great benefit. The reason was simple: the training cycle was too long.
Although "Bagua Wandering Dragon Palm" is not a superior martial art in the Central Plains, it is not a martial art that can be learned for money. Similar martial arts are not available to ordinary people. With the ability of "Cronos", it is not difficult to get it. , but the Elder Council of "Cronos" did not include it in the tutorials for combatants, because the Elder Council had already calculated the costs and benefits very early on.
Using the training methods of European martial artists to train combatants only takes about five years from start to completion, while studying Central Plains martial arts in ten years may not necessarily produce a mature combatant who can be used as a combat force.
Although the service life of the former is only ten or twenty years, while the latter can maintain combat effectiveness for more than thirty years, what is the meaning of this?
Combatants are consumables, and their service life is generally between five and ten years. Sacrificing training efficiency in exchange for a service life that does not have much practical significance is a completely loss-making deal for the Elders.
"Cronos" is the largest underground force in Europe. For such a huge organization, just maintaining its notifications requires a huge cost, and these costs are the combatants of the organization. It can be said that now "Kronos" The status of "Lonos" is built up by the lives of countless combatants. It was needed in the past, is needed now, and will be needed even more in the future.
Therefore, extending the training time of combatants is absolutely unacceptable to the Elder Council.
Even if the "Time Guardian" is the trump card among the combatants, it is also a consumable for the Elders. And because it has always faced the most dangerous tasks, the "Time Guardian" has a loss rate even higher than that of the organization. The combatants are taller, which can also be seen from the fact that most members of this generation of "time guardians" are not over thirty years old.
Afraid that Mezuo's private teaching would affect the training progress of the combatants, the Council of Elders even warned Mezuo not to give things that were no longer needed to the combatants.
Only when the combatants successfully live to the age of thirty-five and prove their abilities and worth, will the Council of Elders allow Mezzo to teach them martial arts so that they can continue to shine for the organization.
This is also the reason why Mezzo talks about "safety first" all day long. He hopes that the children in the organization can live to the day that he teaches martial arts to his inner family.
A lot of helplessness flashed through his mind, but Mei Zuo was not distracted in the battle. His palm skills became more complicated and changeable. Moreover, Yan Kai wanted to worry about La La and prevent La La from being captured by the opponent. For a while, he and Mei Zuo were in a stalemate. stand up.
Hey, I still like those straightforward attacks just now...
Yan Kai sighed as he fought. For Yan Kai, the previous attacks from the "Guardian of Time" members were far less difficult than Mezuo's.
But it’s just difficult!
Yan Kai's eyes turned cold, and Mei Zuo, who was fighting with Yan Kai, suddenly felt as if his hands were stuck in a quagmire. He no longer used his palm skills as he wished, but seemed to be stuck by many parties.
Mei Zuo was shocked. He relied on the coordination of his palm skills and footwork to keep attacking around Yan Kai. He didn't dare to stop at all, because he knew that as long as he stopped, Yan Kai's thunderous attacks would hit him. Submerge yourself in an instant.
And Yan Kai is also waiting for the moment when he slows down.
Most martial artists have their own rhythm when fighting people. Once this rhythm is destroyed, flaws will inevitably appear in the attack.
Before, Saphilia also relied on her delicate sword skills and fast pace to fight Yan Kaiyou, but after Yan Kai destroyed the floor, her pace showed flaws and she was immediately repelled by Yan Kai. It was the same reason.
After restraining Mei Zuo with the sticky force in the "Yin Yang Jue", Yan Kai struck at Mei Zuo's open door with a palm, hoping to let the old man go home and retire. A piece of white silk cloth suddenly wrapped around Yan Kai's hand. Yan Kai's palm strike was blocked, and Mei Zuo took advantage of this gap to quickly retreat and distance himself from Yan Kai.
Xiaoli pulled the silk cloth and tried his best to restrain Yan Kai's movements. Big beads of sweat dripped from his forehead and fell to the ground in drops.
Just to restrict the movement of one arm of Yan Kai, Xiaoli used all his strength. It was hard for him to imagine how the captain and Teacher Meizu had fought Yan Kai back and forth before.
Pulling his arm, it was a bit immovable. Yan Kai sighed, but he had no choice but to add 10% more internal strength.
"Originally I only planned to use 50% of my internal energy to play with you, but now it seems that I am a little disrespectful to you..."
After Yan Kai added 10% of his internal strength, Xiaoli's pressure increased greatly, and blood suddenly overflowed from the hand pulling the silk cloth.
"Shaoli!"
Genos quickly stepped forward to help Xiaoli pull the silk cloth, so that Xiaoli was not dragged away.
Yan Kai had one hand restricted. Such an opportunity did not come along all the time. Berger immediately stepped forward and extended his big hand to Lala: "Princess Lala, please come with me!"
"This is not okay!"
Yan Kai competed with Xiaoli and Genos with one hand, but he still had one hand free. When he saw Genos coming to take advantage, he immediately hit Genos with a palm.
Genos didn't expect that Yan Kai would still have the energy to take care of himself when he was restraining Xiao Lihua and Genos at the same time. He quickly placed Gangnir across his chest to block Yan Kai's palm.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, Berge fell back more than ten meters, feeling as if a train had hit his chest. However, he had clearly blocked Yan Kai's palm with Gangnir, right?
Berge looked down and his heart suddenly stopped beating. His weapon, the spear Gangnir made of "Oliha Steel", had the middle part of the spear bent, bent...
Sefilia also saw it, but she didn't have the luxury to comfort Berge now. She said to Mezzo: "Teacher Mezzo, please help me take cover!"
Mezuo frowned: "Which move are you planning to use?"
"The matter has come to this, if you don't have the consciousness to risk everything, don't even think about snatching Lala back from him!"
Saphiria said firmly.
"Okay, you are the captain, you have the final say. Don't worry, even if I risk my life, I will get a chance for you!"
Mezzo said with a serious face.
After saying that, he didn't care that he hadn't fully recovered yet, and rushed towards Yan Kai again.
This time, his purpose is very clear, which is to create an opportunity for Saphilia, even if it may cost him his life!
One hand was restrained by Xiaoli and Genos, and with the other hand, Mezo risked his life to fight with them. Seeing that Yankai's hands were restrained, Sephiria took a deep breath and held the Kuraist knife at her body. In front of him, he made a starting position, the starting position of the ultimate move of Egus-ryu swordsmanship, "World Destruction".
"Boundary Destruction", transcends the limits of the body, continuously hits super-high-speed stabs, crushing all enemies in a straight line, and is a killing move that cannot be used easily. Even Saphilia's strengthened body can't use this move. Will lose combat effectiveness within a few days.
She doesn't think this move can kill Yan Kai, and she can't afford the consequences of killing Yan Kai. Moreover, through the battle just now, she already knows Yan Kai's strength very well. "Destroy the World" can only seriously injure Yan Kai at most. , but even just a wound is enough. She believes that even Yan Kai needs to use all his strength to fight against the power of "Destroy the World". The emptiness after this is the best opportunity for her to bring back Lala.
The Kuraist sword pierced the air, delivering hundreds of stabs in an instant. A statue of Fudo Myoto seemed to appear in the air, pressing towards Yan Kai.
"Destroy the world!"
Saphiria shouted with her last strength.
The powerful move came, and Yan Kai knew the power of this move before Sephiria's voice reached him due to his sword skills that exceeded his speed.
Facing Sephiria's most powerful killing move, Yan Kai's eyes lit up and a smile appeared on his lips: "Well done!"
For the first time, Yan Kai moved for the first time after the battle started. He grabbed Mezzo's hand and threw him towards Xiaoli and Genos. The hand wrapped in silk cloth suddenly shrank several times. The child was freed from the shackles of silk cloth.
After his palms were freed, Yan Kai turned his hands, spinning around himself, turning into a whirlwind and sucking all the power of "World Destruction" into it, and then all dispersed with a crash.
The power of "World Destruction" is so fast. Even if it is rotated by Yan Kai, from the original straight line attack to a 350-degree circular attack, the power it radiates is still something that cannot be underestimated, except for La La. At the dead end of the power of "World Destruction", everyone else in the scene was affected by the power of "World Destruction" and fell into one piece. Fortunately, Saphiria lost strength and fell to the ground after casting "World Destruction", otherwise she would have tasted herself It feels like a proud stunt.
"My mother said that my attacks are not serious, and she told me not to use more than 70% of my strength when fighting with others, but you are still very difficult to deal with. I'm afraid it's not enough to use only 60%. Thank you for letting me borrow your strength. You are really Lala’s good aunt!”
Yan Kai said with a smile in the smoke and dust stirred up by "Destroy the World".
Saphilia, who fell to the ground, couldn't hold it back and vomited out a mouthful of blood.
