Chen Bao felt like he was on an emotional roller coaster.
Just when she thought everyone had worked together to win, she realized that the machine was intact, the statue was still there, and the helpers called by the skull had lost their lives in vain. Just when she felt lucky that she had been saved, she turned around and saw that only half of the body was left, and she was about to die.
This roller coaster brought her joy twice, but finally she fell to the bottom along the track of fate. Chen Bao truly experienced the feeling described by his predecessors, the feeling of suffocation at being unable to do anything, and the pain of feeling like his body was about to explode. She realized that this was a precursor to a superpower going berserk, but what did it matter?
If you lose control, lose control. This city has gone crazy anyway. Let’s just blow up everyone and finish it off!
The light rain that wiped out the space flew in, covering the sky and the earth in a vast and vast way. Chen Bao quickly said goodbye to her family and friends in her heart. She wiped away her tears and got up, ready to die with that bastard.
"I--"
But then, she saw the light.
A dazzling golden light fell from the sky and shone on the body of the skull with incomparable precision like the gaze of a god. The light has no form, but it possesses strange power. The warm light illuminated all the spaces where the dust blast looked, blocking all of Orus's terrifying attacks!
The golden light gathered behind John and turned into a single wing with illusory feathers. John's once-cut half of his body was strangely gathered together at this moment. His wounds healed quickly, and the tissues in his body quickly returned to their original state. In less than a breath, John Garcia returned to an uninjured state.
John stood up unsteadily, and was caught by the dust blast before he could say anything. The purple-haired maid shook his shoulders excitedly: "You, you, you still said you had no back-up plan?!"
"Quiet."
"?" Chen Bao was stunned, and she realized that John's voice was no longer hoarse, but became clear.
The skeleton head frowned and took off his ferocious metal mask.
The bodyless face that was as terrifying as a ghost had somehow healed up as before. The person standing in front of Chen Bao was not the scar-faced villain she had imagined, but a handsome and even feminine young man.
Chen Bao exclaimed: "Oh my god... you... you're doing plastic surgery..."
John himself couldn't understand the situation smoothly, so he simply didn't explain it. The wings behind him spread out, and 30 white feathers flew up, 29 of which stood around the three people, replacing the gradually dissipating golden light and turning into a new wall.
At this time, the body of Apostle Aulus began to twist strangely for some reason. Its arms sometimes swelled like balls, and sometimes shriveled like rods, like a rapidly developing biochemical experiment. Apostle Aurus had to temporarily support the ground with both hands to maintain the balance of the mutated body; its other two arms made gestures, and the space-cutting slashes and space-erasing light bullets completely destroyed the street where the three of them were. clean. But not a single brick could break through Feather's defense, and not a single light bullet could touch the three people protected by that light!
"Super strong!" Chen Bao opened his mouth unconsciously.
"John Garcia, what have you done!"
John ignored the enemy's questioning at all, and he operated the last feather to fly up and merge into Badman's body.
"Badman." John knelt down and grabbed his shoulders, "Wake up, brother."
The predator's fingers moved slightly, and the half of his body that had been erased began to grow again along the wound, and the once gloomy eyes actually showed light again. Badman gasped as if he had just been rescued from drowning, his eyes full of confusion and surprise: "Boss? I...ah? You? Ah???"
John gradually understood the origin of this power, just like when he first awakened his superpower. He fully understood what this power could do, and even more understood how to use the new abilities he had acquired.
The sky in the Thorny Area was as red as blood, and the earth rumbled. Important changes must have taken place in the battle between the demons... and the true form of that change was not difficult for John to guess. He had seen that scene more than nine years ago.
"The doctor saved your life." John smiled rarely, "You're lucky, that's all."
"Huh?" Badman repeated in confusion, "Huh? Ah...fuck!"
John took out the dagger given to him by the end of the year and thrust it into the old man's abdomen. He made sure his robotic arm was functioning properly and then turned around.
Less than five seconds have passed since the golden light fell, and the height of the machine god body has nearly doubled. Now that the abnormal growth of the machine god has temporarily stopped, Aurus has regained control of the balance of the machine god. He once again issued an angry question, like a candidate who cannot accept the answer.
"This is impossible! What on earth have you done, John Garcia!!"
John replied coldly: "The accuracy of your attacks was too poor, and they all missed. The doctor just used his ability on a large scale, so Badman and I came back to life, and your machine was temporarily out of control..."
John boiled everything down to a simple conclusion, a conclusion that Aurus would never accept.
"I didn't do anything. They got lucky and that's it."
The machine god's movements suddenly slowed down, probably because Orus's movements in the cockpit were stiff.
"………………luck?"
Aurus said in disbelief, "Those wings... the embodiment of good luck? Direct probability manipulation in reality?! That is already beyond the scope of your weak ability!!"
"Death Wings can't do it." John rarely agreed with Orus's statement, "So I made a deal with her, using Death Wings in exchange for a new ability."
"A power that allows me to save my brother."
Aurus's thinking stopped temporarily.
Not willing to think, not willing to understand, not willing to acknowledge, not willing to acknowledge.
exchange. trade. Use your only ability as a bargaining chip to exchange for illusory rewards from a certain existence. Trading is the authority of Destiny, and she certainly has the power to change the type of superpower. However……
"This is ridiculous! You are not her follower! You are not her apostle! How can you, who is just a thug, get the right to trade with the king!!"
John looked up at the giant god, with a strange emotion in his eyes that was difficult for Aurus to understand, like hatred and pity for the ignorant.
"Fate has always been an unfair thing."
"...That's enough, it was my mistake to talk to you." Aurus no longer wanted to listen to this man's speech. He issued an order in disgust, "Badman Ives! Now target your attack. Corrected to John Garcia, attack mission immediately!"
Badman Ives used his newly grown legs to support himself to his feet. He transformed into a green-faced and fanged evil spirit again, spitting loudly on the ground.
"you……?!"
"You son of a bitch!" Badman pulled out his dagger with a grim smile and flexed his muscles. "It's your time to die now!!"
Shigure Suichi's dagger played a role in this brief period. The contract clauses rooted in Badman's heart were violently broken word by word by the power of the dagger. This is supposed to be a long task that takes several minutes or even tens of minutes, because brute force cracking requires a considerable amount of trial and error. But at this moment, every calculation made by the Mind Arms was successful, and every contract was broken as perfectly as divine help. It completed the breaking of the contract with the highest theoretical efficiency!
John took over the dagger that had completed its mission, and moved his hand to make all the feathers return behind him, and then separated 10 feathers each and submerged them into the bodies of Badman and Dust Blast. The purple-haired maid jumped up excitedly on the spot, with a vicious smile that could be called bloodthirsty.
"Start the fight?"
"Be careful, you will be protected by good luck, but fate will never protect a fool who seeks death." John's voice directly sounded in the minds of the two of them, "Yun Yinglang is approaching invisibly, and Badman attacks head-on."
"give it to me!"
Yun Yinglang immediately put on the invisibility cloak and entered the invisible state again. Badman laughed wildly and rushed out first, heading straight for the machine god in the distance!
"Come on, fake bitch!" The blue-haired gangster fired a annihilation cannon at the machine god's chest. "Just now, I couldn't take action against you because of the contract... But now, even if you dare to touch me! Your super power is It’s mine!”
"Foolish fanatic...!"
Apostle Aurus's arms made teleportation gestures at the same time, and his huge body disappeared on the spot first, causing Badman's Blue Star cannon to hit the air. Countless boulders fell from the sky, facing the attacking predators like a heavy rain. . While being restricted by the stone formation, Apostle Aurus appeared on the side of Badman, punching out a giant fist fiercely, trying to smash the green ghost into pieces!
Aurus knew Badman's ability very well. He would never give the opponent a chance to plunder, and he also reserved a hand specifically for adapting to emergencies. In this round, he launched all physical attacks on Badman that had nothing to do with abilities, in order to suppress the opponent's actions with overwhelming force. There is no need to search for Yun Yinglang, who is temporarily invisible. The most important thing now is to solve the difficult garbage...!
"Oletros!"
Orus summoned his theosophy, the ugly giant who was blind and deaf. After the second summons, the eighty-meter-high statue roared and jumped up, curling up into a ball and falling down. The best way to hinder an opponent blessed by good fortune is to deny him any possibility of success. One attack is better than multiple attacks, and wide-area strikes are more appropriate than precision sniping. For an ordinary person, there is no way to avoid the impact of the 80-meter-high statue.
But Gushou didn't make any evasive move. He just raised his hand in the air, causing the ten feathers behind him to fly up.
"Give you good luck, a false idol condensed by failure."
The feathers representing luck were completely buried in Oletros's body, and the ugly statue actually floated in the air. Its body gradually became desolate, and the expression on its face changed from stupidity to tranquility, as if an evil spirit was purified by divine power and was about to get rid of obsession and anger, and be liberated from this ugly world.
Aulus realized that he had made a mistake, a mistake that he had not expected at all. Oletros is the product of failure, and any buffs may weaken it. This is a possibility that Kuanshou has never tried before, but Kuanshou, a complete lunatic, dares to risk his own life on this guess!
"exchange!"
Apostle Aurus made a gesture with his spare fourth arm. He would personally change the position between himself and the statue. Even if he risked falling into a trap, he would kill the corpse first.
But the corpse seemed to have expected it, and he calmly gave the order.
"fry."
A cloud of purple smoke was generated on the side of Apostle Aulus's wrist. The explosion of smoke was just right, stopping the gesture before it was formed! Aurus's decision-making was a step slow, and he paid the price for it: Badman Ives had gotten rid of the constraints of the boulder and the boxing. He was climbing up the giant god's arm, running towards the machine-god like a meteor. Chest.
"It's not strong enough, sissy!" the predator mocked unscrupulously, "Why the hell is it that after three years it's not as strong as before? I didn't expect you to be so afraid of my power that you don't even dare to attack me. !”
·
Is he afraid?
In the cockpit, Orus asked his soul. Is it because the enemy's combat power has become stronger and because there are too many unexpected factors that he feels afraid?
Zizzi. The communication access prompt sounded, and where the enemies couldn't see, Shigureingo's face appeared on the communication screen in the cockpit.
"I've arrived at the planned location...but! You don't look too good, boss!" The black metal musician swayed around the screen, "Hey! You! It's not too late to change the battle now! It's so bad! You’ve given up on your job, I don’t mind going over to help you!”
Start thinking about the odds.
Shigure Ringo's proposal is the right answer in terms of local combat considerations. If some of the plans he was responsible for were changed, the outcome of this battle could be decided.
"——Reject the application and continue fighting, Shigure Ringo!"
However, Aurus gave a negative reply.
"Hey, are you serious?"
"I had already made up my mind before today." Aurus tightened his grip on the operating lever. "My actions are for the great goal, not personal interests. The gears must do their job well! So I You will never affect the progress of the overall situation in order to increase the chance of victory on a local battlefield. Go back and perform your mission!"
Aurus unilaterally cut off the communication and felt certain in his heart.
Yes, he had already realized that even if he could not eliminate his emotions, he should try his best to make rational and correct decisions.
The current battle situation is before his eyes. Oletros will be completely annihilated in a second or two, the invisible Yun Yinglang is difficult to determine his position for a while, and the plundering Badman cannot kill with one blow. Then, he must achieve the maximum result at the minimum cost, even if he is involved in danger...!
"No problem...just choose one!"
Aurus regained his posture, mobilized all his attention, and started a new round of attack plan. The first target is still locked on the skeleton's head. Except for the fourth arm, which has temporarily failed to recover due to inertia, the other three hands are ready. Use the solidified space with maximum output to stop Badman's actions. Even if he is allowed to plunder the power, he will have to stop him for at least one second; make the machine god teleport to the top of the corpse's head and strike it with its mass; use all its power to activate the erasure bomb. , forced to launch immediately after the teleportation is completed, and perform all-round space erasure!
In this way, even if Badman grabs the power of the Supreme Crown, he will no longer be able to rescue the shameful underworld. As for Yun Yinglang, there is no need to worry at all, his victory is still in the palm of his hand!
"It's over, solidify!"
Thinking only for a moment, Apostle Aurus's three hands moved at the same time. However, he saw an unimagined sight: four more purple smokes were generated on the wrists of the machine god, and the color was thicker than before. The scope is wider than before!
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Senior Aurus~ You don't think that I can only control a cloud of smoke at the same time, right? I couldn't get close before, so I had to bomb in a large area. Now that I'm close to you... I think Explode however you want!"
The sound came from above the Mecha-God. The dust blast relied on the blessing of good luck to avoid the defense of the Rain of Light, and reached the top of the Mecha-god alone with the blast of air waves! Her voice contained the release of long-repressed emotions, and contained feelings that Orus had never imagined. It was one person's fundamental disdain and contempt for another person!
"Delayed directional blasting, second batch!"
kaboom!
Nan Wu San! What a storm is this... what smoke of hell is this! Under the precise control of the dust explosion, the purple explosion exploded in four directions at the same time, relying on the sound wave of the explosion to generate smoke and dust again, and relying on the new smoke and dust to set off an even faster explosion! This is an infinite cycle of killing both the enemy and ourselves, a huge explosion in which we all die together!
However, the dust blast launched this suicide attack without any worries. She was flying in the air wave, getting farther and farther away from the center of the explosion, because today's dust explosion was very lucky. With the help of John Garcia's superpower, she was lucky enough to avoid these injuries.
"retreat."
"I'm retreating, what should I do with Orus?"
Get stuck! Get stuck! Get stuck! Get stuck! The four arms of the machine god exploded at the same time. Badman saw the opportunity and fired the Blue Star Destruction Cannon in the direction of the cockpit!
"Don't even think about it, Badman Ives!"
In the cockpit, Orus cut off the link with the Machine God. He returned to the lonely superpower and continued fighting in his old way: "Exchange!"
Once again, there was an exchange of humans inside and outside the cockpit. This time, it was Orus who took the initiative to leave his seat. Regardless of the risk of being robbed by Badman, he wanted to kill the gangster first and defeat his last hope!
"John Garcia! I discovered it through the feelings of Oletros. Your power can only affect others other than yourself!"
Aurus in the air stared at John on the ground. The look in his eyes was not only a deep belief in his own responsibilities, but also a deep-rooted disgust for his opponent. That hateful feeling comes from his past and the grudges between the two since they met. Ever since Orus awakened his super powers, Gongsun Ce and John Garcia have been his most hated enemies in this city.
"This distance has exceeded the scope of damage synchronization! Badman Ives was too late to support you. After losing his subordinates, your flaws were exposed..."
Aurus roared in the fierce wind, the Supreme Crown's magic circle returned behind him, and the shattered light rain appeared again, facing the powerless mortal at high speed!
"You have always been an incompetent man, John Garcia! You can't do anything without others, so you have no qualifications to compare with me!"
John Garcia ignored him.
John just calmly gave the final instructions to his first and most loyal brother.
"plunder."
"Understood, boss!"
Badman clapped his hands to his body.
His goal was not space manipulation as Orus expected.
At this moment, the Predator briefly gained the power that belonged to the Skeleton Head.
"Good luck to you, my brother!"
Another piece of illusory wings appeared behind Badman, 30 feathers flew up at the same time, and fell into John's body in an instant.
John Garcia started running, using his physical body to sprint towards the flying Orus. His left hand was empty, and his right hand held a short sword. The power of good luck brought him obvious blessings. He repeatedly avoided the light bullets at tricky angles and closed the distance without any damage. John grabbed the dagger and jumped up, launching an unstoppable assault on the Supreme Crown!
"I said..." Aurus made another gesture, "For me who understands failure, a mere short-term defeat is just a ladder to success! Even if you defeat the idol, the absolute truth It won’t change!”
That gesture was exactly the exchange he had developed over the past three years. The bodies of John and Aurus were instantly displaced, and the magic circle transformed from the Supreme Crown was almost pressed against John's back. That magic circle is where infinite light bullets are generated. As long as a new light bullet is generated, there will be no good luck to save John!
Then, gunfire rang out.
The bullet came from Orus' back. The bullet comes from John's robotic arm. The bullet comes from the muzzle that is drilled out from behind the robotic arm and turns red due to high temperature.
Two large-caliber bullets penetrated the palm of Orus's hand, and the powerful kinetic energy completely shattered the part under the forearm.
·
Aurus flew down from the air, and John jumped up from the ground.
After exchanging coordinates, the direction the two were looking at remained unchanged.
Moving to Orus below, only a patch of dust could be seen.
John, who was swapped to the top, stared at the dark sky.
"——"
The pain of the crushed palm was transmitted through the nerves, and the most severe pain was yet to come. However, the pain in my heart was a hundred times stronger than that in my body.
Not willing to give in. Don't want to admit it. Extremely ridiculous. It doesn't make sense. After making plans, preparing plans, and having awareness, even if the other party temporarily gained strength, he thought of a way to overcome it, but in the end, in the end...
But because of two ordinary bullets, he lost the duel between superpowers.
Elements that are so fragile that no special consideration is needed. It's so obvious that it's not even a disguise. The skeletal robotic arm is the most commonly used prosthetic body by gangsters...
Unfortunately, he didn't expect this.
thump.
Aurus Optimis fell into the dust. Without his hands, he has no way to activate his power.
This is the end of him.
Aurus, who understood this, said the truth that he could no longer escape with great bitterness and pain.
"...I lost again."
John Garcia landed, turned around, and the muzzle popped out of the side of the robotic arm.
"You are obsessed with the future that has not yet come, but you never thought that you are just a fool who can't see clearly in front of you."
A gunshot sounded, and the duel ended.
