The invisible barrier was penetrated by the red snake, and the stones shot with its power also penetrated its body.
After two consecutive failed attempts, the red snake's fangs could almost touch the tip of the young man's nose.
It only takes a moment.
The hunter struggled to get up from the ground, licking his lips excitedly. In another moment, its newly awakened spiritual power can penetrate into the young man's head, carve a smooth path in the brain, pass down the throat, destroy the organs, and swallow the living heart and blood. into the belly...
This will help.
The heart of such a powerful esper! After getting this sufficient supplement, it will definitely heal the damn injury.
After that, you can continue to hunt... No, it's time to join them... No matter what, there will be a solution later! You can escape! Even that woman couldn't find them among the millions of deviants!
"Kuku Kapu!" Immersed in disordered thinking, it made a strange cry, enjoying the unique pleasure brought by the rusty smell flowing through its throat——
"Ku?"
Can't feel it.
His mouth was empty.
There was no feeling of eating, it was just like...
"It's as if your hollow snake didn't bite anything?"
"!"
The hunter focused his attention to the front. The red snake was moving back and forth in the space where the young man's upper body was originally located, failing to bite even a bite of flesh and blood.
But a human being cannot disappear out of thin air, unless he is a Brahma-like envoy. The young man with glasses obviously did not meet this standard. The hunter shook his head nervously, trying to find out the whereabouts of the superpower. The answer made it exclaim: "Puku?!"
What happened? As long as you follow the gaze of the stunned person, everything will become clear.
The young man did not move away from where he was. He just touched the ground with one foot and tilted his whole body 60° to the right. He stopped in mid-air in a posture that ordinary people could never do, as if he had stopped halfway after falling. Same.
Gongsun Ce threw a fallen leaf, and the blades flying at high speed made a sound of breaking through the air. Just like the previous stones, they failed to touch the snake.
"Interesting."
"...Through the Sky Snake!" The hunter flicked his head to the right, and the red snake quickly turned and lunged in the air.
But the air-piercing snake bit the air again, and this time it clearly captured the details: the young man who didn't make any movement actually flew back for no reason!
"Puku?!"
"As expected of a Kukakapu star, even the voice expressing exclamation is so surprising." Gongsun Ce straightened his body as he retreated, and took care of his crooked glasses, "This is a very surprising situation. Is that so? I can use my abilities to beat you or control other objects, so of course there is no problem with using my abilities to control my own body."
"Treat your... body... as a prop?!"
"That is to say, when I first started practicing, I felt a little pain due to occasional mistakes, but after I got used to it, it was fine. Having said that, this is such a lack of combat experience. Could it be that you are actually someone who has bullied ordinary people with only your ability. In fact, A beginner who hasn’t played a few games with decent opponents?”
The hunter was speechless.
It is not that it cannot understand this approach. From a warrior's perspective, this fighting method is undoubtedly wise.
What really surprised him was the attitude shown by the young man at this time.
Commonplace.
There were no violent mood swings or radical remarks. The superpower showed no sense of urgency, and even the expression on his face was the same as when he first started talking to it.
Fighting with it and communicating with it are simply like "if you miss a subway on the way to school, you have to wait for the next one." There is nothing to worry about...
What a joke.
The hunter panted nervously. Aren't superpowers just students who know nothing about it? This is different from what it has heard before!
The battle situation was now in a strange stalemate. The hunter shook his head vigorously and controlled the red snake to turn flexibly in the air. The young man used his ability to move around, evading the air-piercing snake's attack with a slight difference every time. .
The remaining pain of the old injury, the fear of not knowing when the woman would come after him again, and the sense of urgency brought about by the unknown development of the battle, the combination of these three made the hunter almost tremble.
As the Law Envoy of the Wild Phase, he has absolute confidence in his own "speed" and "power". Based on his grasp of himself, the Sky-Piercing Snake should also be a magical power specialized in speed...
If you encounter an enemy who has reached the realm of manifestation, or someone who is a misfortune or a god of Brahma, you will have no choice but to consider yourself unlucky, but now the person fighting him is just a person with superpowers! This young man actually matched it in speed just by relying on his own ability!
"..."
The hunter almost stared out his eyes. It didn't want to give up here. While controlling the red snake, it carefully observed the young man's movements.
"Ku puff puff... click puff puff..."
The hunter smiled.
"Why are the Kapupu stars laughing?"
"Ku Pupu... You... have always limited the scope of the battle to this small area... You should have thought that the Sky-Piercing Snake has the largest range of its actions... Why don't you expand the battlefield and find its weakest areas? No, but fighting at such a dangerous close range...?"
It spoke slurred Common and had an extremely odd accent.
"Just now I finally understood... Kufufu... you are worried about the people around you!"
Gongsun Ce dodged and avoided another attack: "Have I offended you because of my kindness?"
"Puff... What you are hurting with your kindness... is yourself! What you are worried about is that once we leave the combat area, I will target other people with super powers... such as the residents of this apartment building. !”
"I'm just saying...I'm just saying...not every person with superpowers is like you!" This vicious predator rubbed his hands together excitedly, like a gourmet about to start eating: "Here you go... ...Choose! Stand there and don’t move, let me eat your heart! Or I will change the target now and eat other... superpowers! You choose! You choose!"
"..."
Gongsun Ce stopped as he was told.
After all, he is just a student! Proud of his own quick wit and benefiting from the other party's kindness, the hunter shook his head impatiently and prepared to start eating.
But its movements suddenly stopped, because the student's speech instantly diverted its attention.
"I've always been curious, why don't you control the Hollow Snake to burrow into the ground, or hide in a building, and attack me from unexpected directions?"
"Ku..."
His tone was as calm as Fang Qian's: "From what I can see, this snake has the wonderful characteristic of not being interfered by external things. No matter my ability, nor the stones or leaves I just threw, none of them can touch it." It. So, relying on this characteristic to hide in dark places such as underground or in buildings to attack unexpectedly will be more in line with your needs, right?"
"no need……!"
Before the conversation ended, Red Snake shot out again. Gongsun Ce shifted his body as if he had expected it, and dodged the attack: "I can't think of a reason why you don't do this. Judging from the range of abilities you just showed, this kind of It's completely feasible. Is it because of eyesight? Before considering this factor, I thought of another, larger possibility."
He narrowed his eyes and pointed at the other person: "You need to divert my attention."
The hunter's body froze, and the superpower pursued him with words without hesitation: "I am a layman after all. Before I understood your subtle attack intention, I could not see the snake, so I might mistakenly think it was you. Because the injury was too severe, the ability was disabled. In that case, what would I, a superpower, do? Just in case, I should give you a few more shots to make you lose the ability to fight, right?"
"you……!"
"This is what you are afraid of. The two previous attacks have already caused you extremely heavy damage. If my blow has been struck before the Sky-Piercing Snake's attack succeeds, then all your efforts will be in vain. ." Gongsun Ce stretched out a finger, and the snake stopped in place for some reason. "Obviously, this snake is controlled by your own senses. You will shake your head every time it attacks. The first time you mistakenly thought it attacked successfully, you also had a strange expression on your face - your senses , should be shared with each other.”
"If you were beaten unconscious, then the snake's attack would naturally be impossible. No, it might disappear on the spot?"
Gongsun Ce narrowed his eyes: "Just now I just raised my finger threateningly, but you stopped the attack of the air-piercing snake. You were worried that I would attack your body, so you didn't dare to act rashly. What I said was wrong. Are you from Kukaka?"
The expression on the green comb-headed man's face changed rapidly, and finally settled on a disappointed expression that even a child could see.
If you put aside what it had done before and just look at this face, it would be enough to make the young man feel sympathy.
"Half... half... Ku... I don't have enough strength... to perform precise operations..."
I see.
The young man reacted.
A seriously injured opponent is in poor condition and his ability to perform precise maneuvers will also be reduced. If the red snake is allowed to sneak into the ground, it will not only direct the opponent's attention to the main body in disguise, but also means that the next attack will have a greater chance of making a mistake.
This was something the hunter couldn't tolerate, and now that the puzzle was solved and the weakness was exposed, the deception and tactics were useless.
From this moment on, it is the final showdown.
The hunter must have understood this, as he stared straight at the superpower with desperate and determined eyes.
"Just now... I was shocked by your speed... That's why I attacked cautiously... That lack of confidence hurt me... Puff... I should be more confident...! I... won't waste any more... …!”
"Sky-piercing snake!"
After receiving the command, the red snake stabbed out like an arrow, and the non-human being itself also rushed towards the superpower: "Let's see who's speed... is faster!!"
I don't know where the tension comes from. The enemy does not hesitate to put the main body into a dangerous situation, but also wants to decide the outcome at this moment.
If you avoid the attack of the hollow snake, you will be bitten by the hunter.
If you attack the main body first, you may be bitten by a snake.
Which party should we deal with? The superpower understands that he who is under attack needs to make an immediate decision, and pins his hope on his attack being faster. Both the speed of thinking and the speed of action need to be faster than the other party, so it is said to be a contest of speed.
"call……"
Gongsun Ce clenched his right fist.
That is a layman's grip. Just from the way he holds his fist, it can be seen that this young man is not an expert in close combat.
The eyeless head of the Hollow Snake and the sharp claws of the hunter were clearly visible in his eyes. Even the venom spit out from the enemy's mouth floated quietly in the air as if weightless.
This is just the acceleration of somatosensory time caused by tension.
Even if you can catch the attack with your keen intuition, it is difficult to react with your own body. Even if you are aware of the danger, you are still unable to escape due to your own fragility. This feeling of powerlessness after knowing the current situation and the limitations of your physical ability are exactly The so-called despair that ordinary people feel.
However, Gongsun Ce will not feel despair now.
Because he is a superpower.
"Drink!"
The enemy he saw returned to his original speed. The young man, who was not an expert, stepped forward and punched.
Compared to the hunter's thrust, compared to the red snake's thrust, his fist is faster! The clenched fist hit the belly of the Hollow Snake. The monster, which could not even reach superpowers, was bent so hard by the layman's punch!
"Kupu!"
The hunter's body froze in mid-air, and the superpower continued to strike without hesitation, knocking the red snake to the ground. Centered on the body of the air-piercing snake, the ability user's blow created a deep pit on the ground!
The little snake in the pothole turned into a shadow and disappeared.
Deep marks of blows appeared on the belly of the green cockscomb head at the same time. It fell to the ground and looked at the young man in disbelief.
Gongsun Ce waved his hand: "The air-piercing snake you released has extremely wonderful penetrating properties, but the other way around is the same. It cannot be hurt, nor can it touch leaves, stones, or my ability shield. This raises an interesting question, how on earth are you going to attack me with a snake that cannot be interfered with or interfere with the outside world?"
"'Cross all the barriers and swallow the delicious blood.' Based on your words, I guess that the foreign objects you define as barriers are meaningless, and the enemy's blood is the object to be devoured."
"In other words, the only two things that can interact with the Hollow Snake are you as the controller, and my body as the enemy. From this point of view, it is really a fair ability, as long as you are like a fighter Just beat him up in the same way."
The hunter's expression became even more confused.
"Pfft...how, maybe..."
Gongsun Ce reached out and nodded his head.
"Are you concerned about speed? I can control the movement of my whole body, and of course I can also use my abilities to speed up some of my limbs. Although I can't keep up with those with physical enhancement system, it's enough to deal with a little snake like you."
The superpower declares.
There is no need to compare speeds at all.
The stalemate just now was just testing the properties of the sky-piercing snake.
From the very beginning, he was already one step faster than the hunter.
The inhuman person spit out the last mouthful of dirty blood, bent his knees, rolled his eyes and fell to the ground, finally passing out completely.
Gongsun Ce took out a pocket watch from his pocket, opened it and looked at the time.
The time now is four forty.
"Encountering a mysterious star, fighting it, and returning home five minutes later sounds like the name of a recent light novel. It turns out that this star person didn't give his name until the end of the battle. I don't know whether to call him eager or rude."
As a result, he didn't understand the cause of the battle until the end.
There are only vague guesses in my mind.
What the green comb-head wants is the heart of a person with super powers.
Is it for healing or for other purposes? In any case, Gongsun Ce had never heard of any medical therapeutic effect on the hearts of students in this city.
"It's enough to be treated as a time bomb by the outside world. Today, another person who wants to eat people appears. This is really... people with super powers are not some eminent monks."
What to do next?
The young man was thinking about his next action when he noticed something unusual out of the corner of his eye.
He saw a small bud.
In the shadow of Starman's tall body collapsed on the ground, illuminated by the sun, a small flower bud was growing silently.
He remembered clearly that there had never been anything like this in that place before.
Then, the second bizarre thing I witnessed today happened.
The bud bloomed in the shadows, blooming into a blue freesia, and a tall blue-haired woman stepped out of the flower.
She smiled at the superpower and said, "Well done boy, hold out your hand."
Gongsun Ce did as he was told.
The next second, a pair of sharp handcuffs were cuffed on the young man's wrists.
