"I can't imagine how Ace should fight now."
After Zhuangzhi hesitantly made his declaration, what he received was not agreement but rebuttal from his friends.
"Using a white heart to maintain life is already the limit, right? Without a real heart, you can't even stand up on your own, and your combat effectiveness has been reduced from a chicken to..."
"Ant?"
“The extent of a weed.”
At least it would be better to describe it as a piece of weed.
"What can a weed do?"
Miss Qin thought for a second and replied: "The scraps from when weaving straw rings."
"It's the pinnacle of uselessness."
Joking aside, the facts will not change because of his optimistic attitude.
Gongsun Ce's current state is even worse than it was during the Inch Yin Fight. At least he still has a sound body in the fair duel field, but now although he has regained the ability to speak normally, he can't even move on his own.
If he goes to fight in this state, not to mention cracking the ability revealed by Shigure Rei at the last moment, I am afraid that even Ying Canglan will not be able to deal with it.
We have to think of something. If you can't solve this problem with your own abilities, you need to rely on the power of friends at critical moments... Rely on the power of friends again!
He had just been rescued five minutes ago, and now he was still relying on a girl to stand up. At this point, he no longer had to worry about face. The gray-haired young man clasped his hands together and shouted to a man in a suit: "I will pay the price, please help me, Shigure-kun!"
"Gongsun, your expression now reminds me of the protagonist of Zi Gong's four-frame manga." Shigure Reiichi shrugged his shoulders slightly, "This incident was caused by Shigure, and I should pay the price. The details will be later. Besides...have a safe trip, you two."
The young man in a suit made a gesture of invitation.
"Ah, thank you very much - hello, Miss Qin Qianbai, can I ask what you are doing?!"
The combat expert was busy fixing his friend's hands on his shoulders. The gray-haired young man now looked like a human-shaped schoolbag.
"The previous position was not very convenient for traveling."
The young man was confused for a moment. If you want to take the previous thorn passage or the way Xu Junyi came down, you shouldn't have to use this posture.
Until he saw the perfect circular hole above his head.
It appeared when the young man lost consciousness, and the glass dragon blasted a passage connecting the underground and the ground with a beam of light.
Gongsun Ce said feebly: "...the straight line between two points is the shortest, right?"
"Yes. Then, let's go."
The ground beneath their feet turned into a rubbery material.
The martial arts expert bent his knees, leaned down, and exerted all his strength on the huge trampoline, letting it sink to the limit until the end of the scope of the ability.
Accompanied by the loud noise when the deformation was restored, the two flew high into the sky.
·
The strong wind, which was faster and more violent than when flying in the air, and the pressure which was more exaggerated than when flying on a biochemical bird, attacked the young man in an instant.
Is it really something a normal person can do to fly across such a wide distance in the physical body? He couldn't be more clear about this girl's ability. Qin Qianbai is not a physical enhancement system user, nor is she an impermanent magic user. Her superpowers are powerful but small changes in nature. Apart from the first time, she only has the family's martial arts. study.
Fighting skills, close combat techniques, and violence that are theoretically only used when beating others, appear to be as incredible as supernormal abilities when used by girls.
Qin Qianbai tapped the edge of the passage with his toes from time to time to soften the cut pipes or the tissues in the dragon's body, and then rushed up into the sky with the same trick. She was carrying a friend who was taller than herself, but her movements were still nimble and agile, without showing any hindrance.
This is something he could never do without his superpowers. Thinking of this, the young man couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"That's amazing, Miss."
"Have it?"
"Should I say it's the real thing? It's much stronger than the dragon worshipers I defeated before. Once I lose my superpowers, I will become as useless as a weed, just like you said."
"That's true in terms of combat effectiveness."
Qin Qianbai's words came through the wind.
"Even so, I think Ace is very strong now."
"This powerless look?"
"I really died a few minutes ago, but I chose to continue fighting after waking up. If it were me, I would be scared and maybe cry, but Ah Ce can still joke with us..."
Gongsun Ce felt the force on his arm getting stronger.
The other party should have tightened his arm unconsciously.
Will a girl who has never had an expression cry because of death?
In the world of superpowers, relying on extraordinary power can bring about miracles in the short term, but once time exceeds a certain limit, life can never come back.
Just like the family Xu Junyi lost ten years ago, just like the life that perished in Superbia three years ago.
Regardless of the memories you don’t want to forget or the items you hold dear in your heart, all meaning will be lost after death. To describe it to a young man who has just died, death is a pain without any beauty. The power passes quickly, the world becomes dark, and in the end there is nothing, even the thought of being an independent existence will disappear.
Thinking about it this way, death is really a terrible thing.
Gongsun Ce thought of the enemy he defeated a few minutes ago, the leader of the dragon worshipers. That man would pursue the dragon phenomenon so persistently, probably out of sadness and fear of the death of someone close to him. And Rei Shigure betrayed her at the last moment, what did she long for?
"..."
The young man who was immersed in his thoughts came back to his senses and found that his friend was no longer speaking, as if he was waiting for his words.
"My mentality has always been good. Mr. Gongsun, I am naturally cheerful."
This is a lie.
"He's telling lies that are easy to spot again, just like he did this afternoon."
Lies this afternoon...
Did you mean pretending to have amnesia in a fast food restaurant, or lying about a dream when you got home afterwards?
What happened a few hours ago now seems like it happened a century ago.
"You know. I can't live in peace without telling some pointless lies from time to time."
He heard his friend laugh.
"Ace is back to his usual self, and I feel relieved."
The conversation has come to an end here.
The combat expert finally brought him back to the surface. The two jumped out from the middle of the avenue at the junction of the areas, causing a commotion among the citizens who were panicked by the dragon phenomenon. "The ghost of the Sky Dragon has appeared!" "Mom! I will never take strange medicine again!" "The Underground Flying Man!"
Even Gongsun Ce, who claimed to have a good mentality, choked when he heard these words. You have lived in this place for several years and you are still making a fuss over this trivial matter. Have you never participated in a street brawl with these people?
"Where is Yan Qi?"
"On the roof of the building over there. Look, it's a convenient hook."
A hook shot out of Qin Qianbai's cuff, and his iron claws caught the edge of the rooftop, pulling the two people in the air towards the target.
A man in a black coat was hammering the roof of the building impatiently, shouting: "Come out and work, Gongsun boy!"
Gongsun Ce roared at him: "You must give me an explanation after this is over, Yan Qi! Tell me what the situation is now!"
Yan Qi pointed at the giant object in the sky with his chin: "Have you become blind after dying once? See for yourself!"
The giant dragon with a single head and ten wings was imprisoned in the center of the ink-colored cage. The golden body gradually overlapped with the appearance of the disaster in his memory, which reminded the young man of the past three years ago.
The dragon at that time did not look like this. His body was flawless, his golden scales could not be hurt by anyone, and the light emitted by the three dragon heads could even knock down the invincible giant. The irresistible color of colored glaze swept over the entire city...
Until its two dragon heads were chopped off by sharp blades.
Gongsun Ce got off his friend's back, stood on his knees, and said, "How is the sword now?"
"I just released the seal inside the Glazed Dragon's body, so I used the sword array to blast it hard. I can take it down with one more slash."
"What's the battle plan?"
Yan Qi tapped his chin with his finger and said: "Shigurei is still on the dragon now. I separated the idiot from the dragon before, otherwise it would be troublesome for the imprisoned target to get mixed up. The spread of Konghua Realm and the dragon I'll take care of the main body. Just to be on the safe side, I'll let the little girl take you up to get the sword to slay the dragon. Remember, you can only slay one sword. If you don't want the sword to go wild and end the city because something went wrong along the way, just kill Shigure Rei first. Defeat and then slay the dragon.”
"good."
After responding quickly, Gongsun Ce said in his heart: (Can you hear me, Lord Shiyu?)
The voice of the young man in a suit sounded in his heart.
(Regarding her appearance, unfortunately I am not able to grasp the full picture. I cannot avoid or defend against her attacks, and I cannot approach or attack her body. This only exists from my perspective.)
Gongsun Ce recalled the helplessness he felt when getting along with 'Alice'.
Shigure-kun also said that he missed one.
In front of Shigure Rei, he couldn't tell lies.
(I guessed a little bit. How long can I fight?)
(The limit is ten minutes.)
(More than enough.)
(The price is to lose all extraordinary abilities within ten minutes, and the reward is to regain the power to fight at full strength within ten minutes. Come on, Gongsun.)
Shigure Rei cut off contact, no, it should be that he paid the price and can no longer use his super powers for the time being.
Then, Gongsun Ce's body was filled with power again.
The body of the gray-haired young man floated into the air. He raised his left hand and asked Qin Qianbai to fly with him.
The expressionless girl waved her hand in the air.
"I didn't quite understand it just now. Anyway, you are going to fight with the dragon, right?"
"Ah, let's go!"
Physical damage, mental fatigue, these sequelae of excessive use of abilities are all put aside by superpowers. The invisible force drove the bodies of the two people, making them approach the giant object in the sky like flying birds.
In 45 seconds, the two arrived at the Glazed Dragon's side, and in 56 seconds, the two stood on the neck that connected the dragon's head like a long bridge. They ran towards the dragon head where Shigurei was——
"kill!"
He stopped amid the roar of a certain man.
Standing in the middle of the long golden bridge is a man in a trench coat with red eyes. He clutched his chest with a twisted face, looking at the two of them with eyes full of hatred, as if he had met a murderer who killed his relatives.
Gongsun Ce frowned. He still remembered the rights he had won in the fight.
"Don't make any moves—"
"Don't even think about ordering me to do anything anymore. I don't want the manifestation realm anymore!!" Xu Junyi roared and tore off his clothes, revealing his ever-expanding muscles, "And now I'm going to use my powers to tear you into pieces. part!!!"
It sounds like he got rid of the constraints of his own abilities through self-destruction.
The superpower was too lazy to say anything to this opponent who could not afford to lose.
Qin Qianbai walked in front of him.
"He used to be an official member of the empire. He has learned your family's secret techniques. The three techniques I have seen are Guan Shan, Shen Lu and Yin Da."
"Well, I'll support you after the fight."
The superpower flew into the air at a rapid speed, and the man on the long bridge shouted: "Get out of my way! Huang Xiang·Tongshen, the Iron Beast King!!"
Xu Junyi's hair grew rapidly, and black hair surrounded his entire head, just like the mane on a lion's neck. Sharp claws sprouted from his fingertips, his muscles turned into iron-like black, and his already strong figure became even bigger. At first glance, he was actually 6 meters tall!
Xu Junyi, who turned into a steel monster, jumped into the air. He was about to stop the superpower's actions——
Then he felt a delicate arm piercing his abdomen.
"Secret Biography of Qin·Guanshan."
Before the expression on the giant beast's face turned into shock, the warrior had already used his next move.
She did not pull her hand away, but raised her arm together with the enemy's huge body.
"Shen Lu."
He used the enemy as a weapon and smashed it on the dragon's neck.
"--ah!"
When his body was beaten to the ground, Huang Xiangfa finally let out a cry of pain. If Gongsun Ce were to fight him, the young man would definitely exchange a few words with him while fighting.
Only this time his opponent is no longer the same person.
This expert doesn't like to talk nonsense when he's really fighting.
The martial arts girl pulled away her right hand, and the blood she brought out was condensed into a short knife by her power. She held the knife with her right hand and smashed it down with her free left hand.
"Hidden attack."
The fist hit the chest, and the force that was enough to crush the rocks surged through the body of the Huangxiang Faushi, and Xu Junyi once again let out a heart-rending scream.
There was a look of fear in the man's eyes. Only then did he realize that the gap between him and this girl was really too big... much bigger than his opponent in the fight with Cun Yin!
·
1 minute and 15 seconds, the top of the Glazed Dragon's head.
The superpower stood on the golden dragon scales, and a woman with black hair, her back to him, stood in front of his field of vision.
Wearing a black hunting suit and fingerless leather gloves, she looked like a female hunter in the forest.
"Hunter" turned around and looked at him in shock.
"I never thought we would meet again, young man."
She deliberately emphasized the word 'youngster', as if she was mocking this immature enemy.
Gongsun Ce tapped the white substance on his chest and replied expressionlessly.
"The second round has begun, Miss Shigure."
