Chapter 854 New Limits (Part 2)
Shiva was on guard this time, so he reacted quickly. He used a move [Smoke Flash] to speed up the sideways dodge and withdraw from the opponent's assault range. At the same time, he used [Invulnerability] as insurance to prevent the opponent from following up with subsequent moves.
Obviously... Brother Jue does have a back-up plan. According to the results of the zero-day calculation, he has at least six or seven subsequent combos that he can keep up with; whether he is using his leg skills to continue applying pressure, or taking out the [Must-Break Defense Blade] to break the [Invulnerability] , are all tactics that can establish certain advantages.
However, the reality is that after the attack failed, Feng Bujue just smiled coldly and did not launch a series of attacks.
The reason for this choice is that he knows very well that... under the current circumstances, the results obtained by the zero-day calculus are unreliable.
Ever since the battle for the cloak, Brother Jue has never had a head-to-head confrontation with Shiva. During this period of time, how much the other party has grown...that cannot be estimated by taking it for granted. Although Feng Bujue now has the accounting data observed from the "data perspective" and some inferences obtained from the last fight (such as the attack frequency, rate of fire, range of activities of Tianwu Hourglass, etc.), but based on these alone, Speculating on Shiva's full strength... is not enough.
"Hmph... What an irritating guy..." A few seconds passed, and seeing Brother Jue... ♦, the offensive was temporarily suspended, and Shiva couldn't help but secretly thought in his heart, "I have to admit that this kid's combat IQ is astonishingly high... at a disadvantage You can survive in a duel, but you can survive in a balanced and advantageous duel.”
Indeed, Feng Bujue would not make any rash advances in this kind of balance of power confrontation, or in other words... he was the type who would never make stupid mistakes. No matter how arrogant he appears on the surface, the "cautiousness" deep in his heart will still stick to a "logical bottom line." If even this line is discarded, the boundary between madness and stupidity will also disappear. In that state, the slightest carelessness will lead to self-destruction.
"Haha... I used up the skills of accelerating movement and improving defense all at once. The cooling time of those two moves must be more than one minute, right?" After several breaths, Shiva did not move. Feng Bujue began to provoke verbally, "What should we do next? Should we use the more reliable [Flying Flame Fist] to rub some [Body Protective Ashes] on ourselves? Or should we use [Tianba Hengkong Splitting Bomb] first?" 】Come and take the lead?"
"Save it." The next second, Shiva replied almost without thinking, "This level of provocation...you want to lure me into taking the bait?" He continued unhurriedly, "You have been tentative these two times. The assault is indeed an advantage, but considering the overall loss of skills, physical strength, and spiritual power... we are not much different. You are giving me psychological hints through words, right? You just want me to take the initiative to attack? "
"Ah~ Have you been seen through..." Feng Bujue smiled, "It's a bit embarrassing."
With his thick skin, "embarrassing" was naturally just talk...but it was a fact that his strategy was seen through.
Feng Bujue's words. The first half is an attempt to make Shiva feel like "I just suffered a loss and I have to get back right away", while the second half is to lead the opponent to think about "how should I attack" instead of "should I attack or defend?" "The problem.
To put it bluntly, this is a very typical inducement... a strategy to get the opponent to take the offensive as quickly as possible.
But in fact... as long as you think about it calmly, you can understand that after the previous two rounds of confrontation, no one took much advantage. Yes, Shiva handed over a stone plate, but that can only be described as a "forced error." Putting aside this mistake, both sides showed some skills, but no one was hurt. To put it in perspective, Shiva has more skills going into cooldown. It is the party that should delay the pace.
"Crazy Bujue, I have to thank you, and Tiantian Guixiao..." Shiva looked directly into Brother Jue's eyes and continued. "The contact with you two has changed me and allowed me to step into areas I have never been to before..." He said as he slowly moved forward. "Today, I have a new understanding of my own strength, experience, and skills. I dare not say that I will never waver again, but at least... my self-confidence will no longer be the same as before. It collapses easily, and I will no longer be disturbed by your weird behaviors." As he spoke, the remaining seven stone plates of Tianwu Hourglass opened their formation again, "If you want to win against me, you have to take it. Give me the strength that I have nothing to say."
"Ha! I think your remarks can be summed up in four words - 'Face me head-on'." Feng Bujue said, having taken out the "Defense-Breaking Blade" from his bag and the scabbard at his waist. ] and [Bell's Everyday Knife], hold this pair of short blades in your hands.
"I've said before, your inexplicable words and deeds cannot interfere..." Before Shiva could finish his words, Brother Jue's figure had disappeared from his sight.
This attack was obviously different from the previous two tests. The previous "aura" was gone, but the "killing intent" had increased several times.
When Feng Bujue's figure reappeared, the cold light from the double blades in his hands was already in front of Shiva.
"Are you finally serious..." Shiva knew that the opportunity had come, "Well done!"
At this moment, with a thought, Shiva activated the "earth" special effect of the Sky Dance Hourglass - [Pure Land].
In the battle for the cloak, Wu Shi Shen Xuan, a top player of the Order, was also made to lose his temper by this move. "Invalidate all enemy skills and equipment effects (including passive) within the range for one minute." What a damn special effect this is.
At this moment, Shiva saw that Brother Jue's killing move had arrived and there was no retreat, so he knew that the time had come. Under the effect of [Pure Land], the two weapons in Feng Bujue's hands instantly turned into ordinary daggers and kitchen knives, and his own physical skills were also reduced by half because [Spiritual Consciousness Gathering Technique-Modified] could not be activated.
In this way... Shiva's advantage became very obvious.
Clinking--
After a moment, two sounds of metal clashing rang out.
But Shiva raised his arms and used only the armor on his forearms to withstand the attack of the sharp blade.
"Well... Although it has lost the support of special effects, the attack power of the equipment itself is still not weak..." In this lightning moment, Shiva felt his arms numb, and many thoughts flashed through his mind, "The attack power of that dagger should undoubtedly be [extremely strong], and the kitchen knife is much inferior... However, compared to these, what is more worrying is this kid's basic physical skills..." Thinking of this. His expression also became more serious. "No matter the strength, speed, or skills, they are all first-class, and the three have reached an ideal 'balance' state; even I can't do this..."
"Humph... After all, it was used..." On the other side, Feng Bujue naturally knew what the other party had done. After the double blades were blocked, his first reaction was to flip back and glance at the game menu in mid-air.
As expected... all the skill icons in the skill bar turned gray. As for the special effects of the equipment... Just now, [Defense Breaking Blade] did not cut through the opponent's armor. It has explained the problem.
"Sorry, I'm afraid you can't live for more than a minute." Two seconds later, Shiva set up the first flag in this battle, "In the battle for the cloak, I used this trick on Wusi Canxuan. This time, I'll let you experience it..."
However, Feng Bujue's reaction was unexpectedly calm: "Hehe... I'm waiting for your trick." When he said this. He had retreated several meters away, put the kitchen knife into his bag, and took out something else.
"Pretending to be calm, huh..." Shiva controlled the Tianwu hourglass and approached. "I want to see how you can resist this round of fatal formation without the advantage of speed and without any defense at all!"
When the voice fell, the sound of the stone plate breaking rang out one after another.
At this moment, Shiva. He successively activated the "Water" special effect of the Sky Dance Hourglass - [Purification] (ignore physical defense, launch a wave of mental erosion on an enemy, and add the "Purification" state to the target within 30 seconds. React according to the target's shock value. A certain percentage of survival value will be lost every second), the "Fire" special effect - [Karma Fire] (ignore attribute defense, launch a guaranteed fire attack on an enemy, this attack has both physical and mental damage, the power depends on the user's spiritual skill level), and the "Wind" special effect - [Wind Arbiter] (summon the Binaca Trident, launch a physical attack on an enemy, the attack has lightning attributes, the power depends on the user's combat skill. After use, the Wind Stone Plate will collapse and can only be restored after returning to the landing space).
"Three, four, five..." Facing Shiva's relentless attack, Feng Bujue's face was as gloomy as water, and his eyes were full of light. Even though he was hit by [Purification] and [Karma Fire] at the first moment, and even though he was suffering from severe pain both mentally and physically, he still calmly calculated the number of the opponent's stone plates and made the most reasonable response efficiently.
"Hmm? This move seems to be dodged..." After being hit by two moves in a row, Brother Jue's eyes changed slightly, and he activated the Thunder Orb that he had just grasped in his hand - [Move Like Thunder], entering a 500% acceleration state that lasted for ten seconds.
His judgment was correct. [Wind Triumph] was indeed different from the other two moves. This special effect did not have the characteristic of "absolute hit"; as long as the first impact missed and lost inertia, the Binaca Trident transformed by the "wind" stone plate would disappear.
So... Feng Bujue successfully dodged this attack with his suddenly increased speed, and turned and ran away.
But how could Shiva let Brother Jue have room for detours? He had already guessed... Players of Brother Jue's level must have prepared a few functional props that can save lives in addition to "equipment" and "skills". Therefore, when Shiva activated the special effect of the Sky Dance Hourglass, he was already ready to shoot, waiting for Brother Jue to show a flaw. Feng Bujue's turn to escape was caught by Shiva.
The next second, there was a "bang".
Shiva's feet crushed the ground, leaned forward and rushed out, and a move [Sky Tyrant Crossing the Sky] came with a bang.
Feng Bujue also felt the ultimate move coming from behind, and he immediately took out [Motionless as a Mountain], turned around and paused, and used the defensive force field to remove most of the force of the punch.
Of course, the knockback effect of the skill still took effect. Half a second later, Brother Jue's body was involuntarily blasted into the sky.
"Huh? That's not right... This is..." The moment his feet left the ground, Feng Bujue felt something abnormal, which made him secretly say in his heart that it was not good.
“Did you find out…” Shiva answered him, having already leaped to a higher altitude at a speed faster than Jue Ge. “That’s right… I activated [Weightless Contact] the moment I used [Sky Tyrant Sky Splitting Bomb] to hit you. Simply put… you are now a live target that stays in the air.”
Even Feng Bujue had to admit that Shiva played this beautifully... Because people who were hit by [Pure Land] basically couldn't move freely in the air, so he used the knock-back effect of [Heavenly Tyrant Crossing Sky Splitting Bomb] and [Weightless Contact] to make the knocked-back target continue to fly diagonally upward at a constant speed. Next, he could activate the special effect of the "Empty" Stone Disc - [Control the Air] (gain the ability to fly freely within one minute, after using it, the Stone Disc of the Sky will collapse. It can only be restored after returning to the landing space.), catch up with the opponent and give him the last round of fatal blows.
"If you have no other means, then let's end it here!" A few seconds later, Shiva had flown to the trajectory of Brother Jue's advance, and he shouted lightly and used [One Clap, Two Scattering Palms].
Shiva's set of combos, from beginning to end, led the rhythm of the battle, and every move was a life-and-death gap, which beat Feng Bujue without a chance to breathe.
And this... is exactly what Brother Jue strives for in this battle.
He doesn't use [Chuck Norris's Razor]. He did not summon the Blood Corpse God, but only used his other abilities to fight against Shiva, just to let the other party force him into a desperate situation. Only in this way... can he break through his own "limit".
…………
The bright information floated in the air like a halo, and countless thoughts seemed like invisible mist... shrouded this vast space.
Here, it was a brilliant illusion.
Here, it was Feng Bujue's mind palace.
"What should I do? Try using [Its Speed is Like the Wind]..." That short moment that could not be calculated seemed particularly long in Feng Bujue's mind, long enough for him to sit down leisurely in the mind palace and ask himself questions.
"That's useless." Feng Bujue No. 2 crossed his arms. Standing aside, he rejected Feng Bujue's proposal, "Even if you become invisible, you will still hit the opponent's palm strike due to inertia."
"What about detonating the grenade to change your direction of advance?" Feng Bujue No. 3 sat aside and continued.
"It's too late." Feng Bujue No. 4 stroked his forehead and nose with his fingers. "Even if you can ignore the fuse time and use grip strength to detonate, it will not be enough if you take the time to take the grenade magazine out of the bag and then take the grenade out of the grenade magazine."
"Besides... if you do this, even if you avoid the opponent's palm strike, I will be blown half to death." Feng Bujue No. 5 paced and added.
"More than half to death..." Feng Bujue said again, "The damage of [Purification] is still continuing. If nothing unexpected happens, when the damage of this skill is all over, I will lose 30% of my survival value; and that [Infernal Fire]... has burned about 40% of my survival value; plus the [Heavenly Tyrant Crossing Sky Split Bomb] just now, the unblocked part also caused about 7% damage..."
"If I get blown up by the grenade again, I'm afraid I'll die, right?" Feng Bujue No. 2 licked his lips and continued.
"Then... can I use [Qi Xu Ru Lin] or a survival value supplement to restore my blood, and then withstand the [One Strike Two Dispersed Palm]?" Feng Bujue No. 3 suggested again.
"It's possible..." Feng Bujue No. 4 responded, "but even if you take this hit, the situation won't change."
"【Weightless Contact】 is not the fundamental problem, 【Pure Land】 is." Feng Bujue No. 5 continued, "There are still 29 seconds left, how many times can you take it?"
"So..." Feng Bujue said with a wry smile, "What should I do?"
"What should I do?" Feng Bujue No. 2 also smiled.
"What should I do?" Feng Bujue No. 3 spread his hands.
"What should I do?" Feng Bujue No. 4 shook his head.
"What should I do?" Feng Bujue No. 5 looked up at the sky.
Then, they fell into silence.
Until...
"The shackles imposed by the system are nothing more than data, right?" Suddenly, another Feng Bujue's voice sounded.
The five Feng Bujue turned their heads when they heard the voice.
As far as they could see, a birdcage-shaped cage suddenly appeared, and Feng Bujue was also sitting in the cage.
"Since you can see through the truth..." He showed an evil smile and glanced at the other five selves, "Why not try to 'control' the truth?"
…………
Hu——
The palm force raised a violent mist and brought out the sound of a strong wind.
Shiva's palm almost touched Feng Bujue's back. In his heart, he had already determined that he had won: "Humph... In the end... You are more fragile than I thought..."
However, at this moment, something strange happened! (To be continued...)
