Li Yi weighed it up and realized that this gathering of resentment from a starving ghost was not easy to deal with based on the momentum it exuded. He estimated that it would be a bit tricky to confront him, but any request to fulfill the soldier's temporary wish would be difficult for him to deal with. I bumped into one as soon as I came here. You can't just accept the task and fail to complete it, right?
Still gotta get the job done.
Thinking of this, Li Yi sighed and slowly took off the ski jacket he had put on before. While taking it off, he complained: "It's quite comfortable to wear, but it's hard to move around, so it's convenient to take it off."
"What are you talking about?" A roar like thunder sounded behind him, followed by the sound of iron chains scraping against the ground.
Li Yi took off his ski shirt, revealing his strong muscle lines, stretched his neck, turned around, and faced the "butcher in the painting" who was much taller than him.
It should be said that the butcher that the hawker turned into just now really fits the look of a butcher in his mind. After long-term contact with corpses, the body will inevitably carry various viruses, so that some parts of this huge body show varying degrees of corruption. Of course, the most obvious trace was the oversized belly. Li Yi estimated that even if he cut it slowly, it would take a lot of effort.
correct! Thinking of this, Li Yi slowly took out a silver-white sword from behind and faced the oversized butcher face to face.
This is one he remade based on the shape of the previous silver long blade. There is no special reason. He just thinks it looks more handsome when holding a sword.
Seeing his posture, the other party tilted his head, which had not completely lost his rationality. Because his face was covered with all kinds of extremely disgusting maggots, he couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, but he could also hear the surprise in the other party's tone. : "You want to fight me? You don't feel hungry at all now. I don't want to fight you. This is completely meaningless!"
Li Yi smiled slightly: "That's right, but what should I do? I hate ugly people, and I want to blow your head off."
Bang! With a muffled sound, Li Yi launched the attack first. The butcher had not completely lost his mind, which meant that his strength had not reached its peak. Since he had decided to take care of this matter, Li Yi would not be stupid enough to prevent the other party from fully recovering. Of course, the earlier we attack, the better.
The butcher didn't suffer any damage from Li Yi's punch to the head, or in other words, he couldn't even move half a step. With the rapid decline of his sanity value, his strength was also getting stronger. At this time, he His body was already more than two meters tall. From a distance, it looked like a giant wine barrel was stuck in front of Li Yi. Li Yi's casserole-sized fist was about the same size as a toothpick in front of such a behemoth, so naturally he would not The damage caused only further angered him. The butcher's sanity plummeted, and his body expanded rapidly like a balloon.
Of course, Li Yi knew very well that his punch would not cause much damage to the opponent, and that was not his original purpose.
His fighting style has never been a war of attrition, unless the opponent is really the kind of monster that cannot be killed.
[Butcher: The weakness is unknown, but since it can be controlled by the owner of the scroll, it must have its fatal weakness. After all, this kind of monster can continuously absorb the breath of hunger to grow. If it does not have a fatal weakness, probably no one will take it under its command. If it comes, What should I do if I can't beat him and get eaten later? So...have a look, maybe you'll be lucky enough to find his weakness soon? 】
MD, you spent thousands on scammers, and you just gave me this useless information? Li Yi cursed secretly, his figure was like lightning, dodging the butcher's attack while thinking about where to open the gap.
He had just tried various weaknesses of the human body, and the newly made silver sword had made cuts, but it could not cause much damage to the opponent. Even if it caused occasional damage, he found that the opponent actually had outstanding self-control. With the ability to heal, the fat all over his body squirmed and quickly returned to its original state.
This is equivalent to the fact that there is too much level difference. No matter how hard you try, you will always lose blood at -1-1-1-1.
There is no way to break through the defense!
But when he just used the system to try to find the other party's weaknesses, the feedback he received was to let him find it himself, causing him to waste thousands of dollars in search fees.
correct! Li Yi suddenly remembered something.
Since the defense cannot be broken, will it be useful to ignore the defense?
With this in mind, he took out an inflatable hammer that he had used a few times and had no high hopes for, but the effect was unexpectedly good.
[Inflatable hammer: A toy that looks impressive but is actually useless. Special effect: There is a certain chance of causing the target to ignore the defense effect, which lasts for 3 seconds and has a cooling time of two hours. 】
Since the "seed" was previously charged, the inflatable hammer, which originally did not have a specific defense breaking time display, also received a specific defense breaking time.
Don't underestimate this small enhancement. For Li Yi, this is undoubtedly a very useful BUFF, because it clearly states: Ignore the defense effect and last for three seconds, but it does not say that within these three seconds, No other weapons can be used to attack.
With the inflatable hammer's attack power, which can only scratch it, it can't cause any harm even if its defense is broken, so Li Yi has only regarded this hammer as a toy, but when the explanation became more specific, He finally understood the correct use of the inflatable hammer.
First create the defense-breaking effect, and then use other weapons or attack directly with bare hands. This is the correct way to use the inflatable hammer!
Now, that's what he's doing.
Bump bump bump...
Bump bump bump...
Continuous beatings, although the butcher is huge, thick-skinned and extremely strong, his flexibility is much poorer. With the help of the Seven Kills footwork, Li Yi is able to do it easily with an inflatable hammer in his left hand, looking for the right moment. He hammered wildly, holding the silver sword tightly in one hand, ready to kill the opponent with one strike if the defense-breaking effect appeared.
Sure enough, after tapping it no less than a thousand times, he finally heard the sound that sounded like the sounds of nature.
[Trigger special effects: break defense, ignore defense effects, duration 3...2...1...]
There was no need to think too much. As soon as he heard the sound, Li Yi subconsciously thrust the long sword in his other hand towards the butcher.
Tsk!
Roar!
The roar of pain sounded at the same time as the real damage pierced into the body. Li Yi knew that he could not miss the opportunity. He quickly pulled out the sword and stabbed several times at the slightly injured area.
When he fell from mid-air and turned around to look, the place where he had just been stabbed was like a fountain, with several red fountains splashing everywhere, and the opponent's body, which had been expanding and getting larger, seemed to be deflated and was shrinking rapidly. .
He took a few steps closer and was about to take a few more steps to get to know the other person thoroughly, but he was almost vomited by the breath coming out of the monster's body.
"Bah, bah, bah, what the hell? Why does it smell so bad!"
After vomiting for a while, Li Yi suddenly froze and let go of his hand covering his mouth and nose. Instead, he moved his nose and smelled twice, then quickly covered it again.
This smell... seems quite familiar. Where have you smelled it?
Wherever he looked, he saw the soldier just now. Because of a big battle between them, the soldier was pushed far away by the people fleeing in all directions, but he still looked dazed. There was still light cyan saliva flowing from the corner of his mouth.
Li Yi instantly understood why the source of the smell in the butcher's body was familiar.
That is simply the hungry breath of a dying person! It was the same smell he smelled when he got close to the soldiers!
In other words, the soldier had actually died a long time ago, but his soul was trapped in the scroll, and he happened to be discovered by the butcher who was sucking the breath of hunger. In other words, he was actually attracted by the "sweet potatoes" peddled by the butcher.
When the other party was about to suck him up, he bumped into Li Yi.
So the butcher who loved to eat the breath of starving people died in his hands, and he successfully saved the soldiers.
[Side Mission 1 Soldier’s Wish: Completed]
[Subsequent activation: Listen to the soldiers’ last wishes]
At this time, apart from the butcher who was still trembling with the breath of hunger, only Li Yi and the soldiers in combat uniforms standing not far away were left.
It seemed that the remaining shred of consciousness sensed Li Yi's gaze, and the soldier staggered towards Li Yi. After taking only a few steps, he fell to the ground without warning and could no longer stand up.
Li Yi quickly stepped forward, walked to the soldier, and supported his almost rotten body.
"Thank you."
A still young voice came into his ears. He sounded like he was only sixteen or seventeen years old at most. This reminded Li Yi of the recruitment notice of the Human Alliance that he had seen.
"Young people over the age of 16 are welcome to sign up to join the army..."
His heart suddenly tightened, and his hands involuntarily grasped the other party's long-lifeless body.
"This is what I should do."
"Thank you. I should have died on the day I entered here, but for so many years, I have been confused and not completely dead." The soldier told intermittently.
Due to the death of the butcher, the hunger aura "food" he created also disappeared, and the obsession that attracted the soldiers also disappeared. Li Yi knew very well that he could not hold on for too long.
"I didn't come to be a soldier for justice. I really had too many people in my family to support, so I had no choice but to be a soldier. I just wanted to have enough to eat..."
Li Yi didn't speak. He didn't know what to say. His original purpose was just to hear the other party's wishes.
"What other wishes do you have? I will help you fulfill them when I go back."
The other party's residual thoughts almost disappeared, but after hearing these words, they suddenly became a little brighter.
"If... it's possible, take my body back. I want to bury it near home." At this point, the trace of residual thoughts suddenly dimmed completely, and there was no chance to shine again.
"Okay! I will take you back. Every soldier here counts. As long as I encounter you, I will take your body back...even if there is no body..."
Regardless of the fact that the other party had disappeared long ago, Li Yi was talking to himself and did not pay attention to the task completion prompt from the system.
