Hong—After the last breaking of the wall, it meant that V1- War God had successfully dragged Feng Bujue through the roof of the building. At that moment, the two had came under a sky of brilliant stars. There was a scent thick in the air, it smelt of shoe shining oil. In that zero point something second, Feng Bujue suspected, the air here was different from earth, and that was why the air smelled like that but he soon tossed that thought out of his mind… because in that zero point something second, he had come to the real reason. Actually the reason was very simple, in human big cities, we exhausted fuel from the back of our vehicles; while in the monster kingdom’s big cities, they ran on ‘fear energy’, and released another form of pollution. The gas gave off by the later probably had the scent similar to shoe shining oil.
“So… do you plan to release me or do you wish to see how long I will be willing to stay in your arms?” When they were in mid air, after 2 seconds, Feng Bujue was the first to speak in a casual tone.
“hah… I am leaning towards the later.” V1- War God said frostily.
“Hue hue hue… fine then.” Feng Bujue responded with a wicked smile of his own. The next second… the murderous intent filtered through the air and a cold glint appeared. When Brother Jue chuckled, a shine had already appeared in his hands. In that breath, something changed. Points joined into lines and lines curved into arcs.
Feng Bujue grabbed Defense Break Cleaver backwards and with a very strange posture and aimed the blade at V1- War God’s stomach. At that moment, V1- War God still gripped with both of his arms to hold the enemy in place. He did not expect… Brother Jue would use this kind of counter. Because based on what they had said, Feng Bujue sounded like he was going to use some kind of powerful skill and used brute force to fight with his brute force to break through V1- War God’s bear hug, who would have thought… the man’s first reaction was to pull out a blade silently and resorted to an ambush.
But… No one could deny that Feng Bujue’s choice was the most unexpected and the most effective.
Following a strange noise, V1- War God’s stomach was split open. His ropy and muscular body was cut open a gap.
“What is this…” V1- War God who was injured was surprisingly calm. He immediately let go of his captive and retreated swiftly and started the program which would fix his body. During this process, white data flow flashed through his eyes, clearly he was analysing the data construct of Defense Break Cleaver.
“As I expected, you have regenerative power…” Feng Bujue held the hilt of the cleaver and tossed it around like a clown. He said, “Aiz… ultimately, you’re still a level 1, this is so troublesome.” After this few words and exchanges, there was already 10 plus metres between the two and both parties were floating in the air.
“Ha ha… looks like you will prove to be more irksome than I thought.” When V1- War God said that, he had already finished analysing Brother Jue’s weapon but his gaze still lingered on Brother Jue as he took in as much information about Brother Jue’s other equipment as he could.
“are you sure… it is just more ‘irksome’?” Feng Bujue naturally knew what the man was up to (after all, V1- War God had one gigantic eye), he then added weakly, “Compared to intrusive scanning, the information available to you just from this kind of visual scanning will be far lesser.”
“Well, some is still better than none.” V1- War God replied. He didn’t mind chatting with Feng Bujue because he could use this time to repair his body and to collect information about his opponent.
“Hmm… you have a point.” Feng Bujue said, “if you have seen through everything that I can do, I am afraid you will choose to run at the first moment.”
“Hmph… you are as arrogant as they claim you to be.” V1- War God grinned coldly.
“And you… are as weak as I expected, V1,” Feng Bujue said darkly.
“Oh?” V1- War God appeared slightly startled, “I have not even introduced myself, but you have already known my name…”
“I know how to read code myself.” Feng Bujue interrupted, in that moment, black shine rippled in his eyes and it was quite scary. “Furthermore, when you tried to scan me from a long distance earlier, I have already studied almost all of your data.” He paused. “With regards of your current intention, I have basically predicted it as well.” He sighed. “To have this fight with you, you purposely go and control NPC with some fighting ability and try to use them to control my teammates… Ha ha…” he laughed. “In many ways, you are trying to seek death.”
V1- War God grinned twistedly and then he continued in an even tone, “is… that so?!” When he started the question, his tone was normal but the later half was shouted out. Because… during the second half, V1- War God had already started his attack. He did not rush in for a close quarter combat but opened his body and used it to summon an energy beam that was about 2 metres in diameter.
BOOM—
It sounded like an explosion as the blast surged forward. The energy wave was like a hounding beast, as it lunged towards Brother Jue. Right at that moment, the special effect of Void Steps, ‘able to stand steadily in the air for some time’ had reached the time where it almost lost its effect.
“He familiarized himself with the special effect of my equipment through the visual scanning and use this as basis to come up with the solution utilizing the weakness of my ability to stay in the air. Hmm… this is quite interesting.” Just as the attack was about to hit him, Brother Jue was still thinking about these things like the scary attack before him was still quite far away…
BOOM—
In the flick of a finger, the wind of the battle changed again. Red shimmered and Geppo followed.
In that last moment, Feng Bujue activated Body Enhancement Spell- Upgraded and combined it with an upgraded Geppo to bounce to the side and brushed past the ambush that was set up by V1- War God.
“ha ha ha… nicely done!” But V1- War God was laughing loudly. His attack was not yet over, far from over!
“Come! Use that speed and strength from before!” Before he finished, V1- War God already teleported behind Brother Jue, “And fight me!”
V1- War God’s quick attack officially started. His fists, legs, knees and feet… were like four mortars that would not stop firing. They collected to form a storm-like relentless barrage on Brother Jue in an extremely close distance…
“Qie…” brother Jue pouted. His eyes glinted dangerously and then activated Body Enhancement Spell again and used one of his active skills, “Dragon Flying Fist!”
