Chapter 1329 The Upper Limit of the Nevernight Fire Apricot
Chapter 1329 The Upper Limit of the Nevernight Fire Apricot
Standing beside Fu Luo, Lin Yu looked at the figure of Buyetian Huoxing and sighed.
"Sure enough, even though this guy talks about a 'fight to the death', her chances of dying were actually less than 10% from the start..."
The three hearts and four lungs and the "stone-turning" on his arms were definitely not the only alchemical transformation surgeries this guy had performed on himself. Although Lin Yu didn't know much about the specific types of transformation surgeries in the Wasteland Realm, he was very sure...
The control over her body, reaction speed and absolute strength displayed by Huo Xing of Nevernight far surpass those of warriors who have trained for five years in the Prison Mountain Realm, and even exceed the average level of soldiers in the Black Swamp Realm.
Even if he were to engage in close combat with Buyetian Huoxing, he probably wouldn't have much chance of winning unless he gave up some temporary gains or even used his trump card of transforming into "Morro".
What's more, at this moment, the Nevernight Fire Apricot has the ability to quickly "reduce" these corpses.
Although the corpses quickly realized that the Nevernight Fire Apricot's method of "crystallizing" them required "direct contact," and that they could avoid crystallization by keeping a distance from the "infected" corpses, the Nevernight Fire Apricot's first wave of assault resulted in the crystallization of eighty to ninety corpses.
but……
When the Nevernight Fire Apricot took the initiative to break in, the situation changed again.
After all, in addition to avoiding contact with infected corpses, they also have to be wary of the crystallized real "source of infection" - the hands of the Nevernight Fire Apricot!
Even though these corpses could retain most of their combat experience and physical fitness, and could even use special abilities like "alchemical creations," "alchemy," and [tools], in front of the Nevernight Fire Apricot...
The power of each individual is obviously still not enough!
It is true that snowflakes pile up and form avalanches.
But at this moment, the Nevernight Fire Apricot was like a red-hot metal ball. Wherever it went, the snowflakes immediately turned into water vapor and evaporated, and there was no way to stop her reckless charge.
These corpses can only be dispersed temporarily to avoid the rapid loss of personnel caused by the ability of the Nevernight Fire Apricot.
After all... activating the "Stone Pointing" is also a consumption for the Nevernight Fire Apricot, especially the use of this type of Stone Pointing technique that spreads outward. Both life energy and the strength of one's own alchemical materials will be consumed continuously.
Although this move is powerful, it cannot be used casually!
Otherwise, with Buyetian Huoxing's personality, he would definitely keep it turned on all day long and click twice on everyone he meets!
Therefore, the idea of these corpses is to delay Huo Xing of Buyetian as much as possible until she can no longer maintain the "Pointing Stone".
This trick really works...
But once the formation is dispersed, Huo Xing of Buyetian will have the ability to defeat them one by one!
"Alchemy·Butterfly Wings", "Alchemy·Snakes", "Alchemy·Invisible", "Alchemy·Lonely Journey"...
Several alchemies that provide speed enhancement are activated at any cost. The alchemy spanning three spectrums makes Lin Yu feel a little emotional.
"She knows so much... She can actually use three lines of alchemy together. No wonder Buyetian Yonglian values her so much..."
At this moment, the Nevernight Fire Apricot was moving among the pile of corpses like a ghost, constantly creating those amber crystal statues - soon, half of the corpses on the scene had been controlled.
At the same time, the purpose of Huo Xing bringing the Captain with her was that the moment she completed the crystallization, the Captain would step forward and take away the [props] or alchemical creations in the hands of the crystallized corpse.
After all, among so many corpses, there are many masters of alchemy.
Although Huo Xing of Buyetian had made many uses of "Stone Touching" and found a way to apply it in frontal combat, Huo Xing of Buyetian knew very well that he had not created a new "alchemy" after all, but had only found an advanced way to use it. Therefore, the ultimate principle of effectiveness of this alchemy was still "Stone Touching"!
However, "Stone Touching" is not a particularly advanced alchemy. It is not even a high-level alchemy, but only a medium-level alchemy. Moreover, due to its wide application in the field of alchemical transformation surgery, there are many people who master "alchemical surgery".
Therefore, Huo Xing of the Nevernight Sky must be on guard, as someone among these corpses might have mastered the ability to crack the "Pointing Stone" and quickly unlock the crystallized state of the "Pointing Stone".
That's why she sent the "Captain" to collect these people's [Props] and "Alchemical Creations" - so that even if they were released later, those corpses would not be able to recover their combat power immediately.
Without the right weapons and tools, your combat capability will definitely be greatly reduced!
of course……
The best outcome is that the opponent is unable to quickly release these crystallized controls!
"boom!"
As another corpse turned into crystal and fell, the ghostly figure of Huo Xing in the Nightless Sky also slowed down.
This is the 335th body - a guy who looks like a gangster from an out-of-town gang.
Huo Xing of Buyetian knew that based on the feeling this time, the guy he crystallized was not a "master".
The recent "Stone Touching" has been activated, and the corpses that have been crystallized are not masters, but the lower-quality parts of these corpses.
The next two guys who rushed towards him after this gangster and were ready to be greeted were also two guys who didn't look very strong - one was an ordinary warrior from the Great Wilderness holding a spear, and the other was a visitor from another world whose [prop] weapon in his hand was a nondescript long sword.
This is not because the masters have been completely defeated by her.
But because...
Those masters are hiding better and better.
These corpses have clear division of labor, and I deliberately give priority to using those who are not particularly strong among them to consume myself and waste my time.
Although Huo Xing knew the other party's strategy early on, he had to admit...
The opponent's strategy is now becoming more and more effective.
"Damn it, my pattern of action has been caught..."
"No...it's because my energy consumption is increasing..."
While thinking, Buyetian Huoxing also seized the opportunity this time.
“Bang”, “Bang”… “Crack!”
Although he pointed at the two cannon fodder corpses that rushed towards him with his two fingers and quickly "turned them into stone" crystals, the Nevernight Fire Apricot eventually revealed its flaws and omissions.
She ignored the attack coming from behind - a Great Wilderness warrior's sledgehammer hit her back!
Although at the last moment, Buyetian Huoxing immediately dodged the attack and only let the heavy hammer pass by his back, the impact force still made Buyetian Huoxing's hair stand on end.
"Damn it!"
She turned around, and the Great Wilderness warrior, although he missed the first attack, immediately took advantage of the opportunity to pursue her.
Not only that……
Several nearby masters who had been keeping a distance from her and had not moved too far away while dodging also realized that this was the first time that the Nevernight Fire Apricot had lost the initiative in the attack round, and they immediately made a change of reaction and took the initiative to attack the Nevernight Fire Apricot!
However, seeing the urgent situation, Huo Xing from Nevernight decided not to fight any longer. Although she didn't look like the type who should have actual combat experience, in fact...
As the second daughter of the Buyetian family, Buyetian Huoxing lacks experience in life-and-death battles.
However, as the "Fairy Queen" of the outer city, Huo Xing of Nevernight is definitely not a newborn calf who can only talk big but does nothing.
She immediately adjusted and withdrew some of the alchemical energy supplying the "Pointing Stone", and pushed the alchemical power of her speed to the extreme. In the pincer attack from all sides, she found a gap in the seemingly impossible encirclement and quickly retreated, and came back to Lin Yu's side breathlessly.
"Wait a moment, give me some time," said Huo Xing of the Nightless Sky, looking at Lin Yu, "This is my first time fighting someone in the Great Wilderness... The feeling of not being monitored by the three major companies, the five nobles, and especially my mother is so exciting, so I couldn't help but use most of my abilities..."
"The consumption is truly too great," said Huo Xing, wiping the blood from beneath her helmet. The next moment, she spat out blood with a groan. Meanwhile, blood was gushing out from every joint in her body, spurting out from the cracks in her combat uniform. "This state... truly can't be sustained for much longer."
Looking at Buyetian Huoxing's appearance, Fu Luo revealed a look of astonishment: "Are you really consuming too much energy? You look like you're about to die, Your Excellency Buyetian Huoxing!"
Huo Xing nodded. "It's not just the sheer amount of energy I've been expending. After stopping, I realized my body's functions, alchemical circuits, and alchemical artifacts are all overloaded... I seem to have no fighting capacity left."
"Oh, I really can't take it anymore. I can't hold on any longer."
"But... we've already dealt with this many people and confiscated a large number of their [Tools]. Now it's up to you, Director Arthur!"
Lin Yu sighed.
He knew that although Nevernight Fire Apricot was indeed exhausted and her alchemical components were overloaded, it was definitely not as serious as she was showing now.
Even if the situation becomes critical, she should be able to strike again at any time.
The other party looked so miserable, she just calmed down after having fun. Then she looked at herself who had not offered any support, and realized that she was just intending to watch the show and see the limit of her ability.
Therefore, Buyetian Huoxing also started to play the victim - it was as if she was deliberately telling Lin Yu.
"I know you're slacking off, Arthur, but I don't mind—I also want to see the limits of your ability, so...it's your turn."
Lin Yu thought about it and didn't refuse.
"Okay, then it's my turn next. Thank you for buying me some time. I'm almost ready."
He whispered, then raised his hand as well.
"Old Zheng."
Lin Yu muttered to himself, and Old Zheng understood.
"Understood, Boss."
The corpses that Lin Yu had previously seized control of underwent a mutation, beginning to swell and twist.
It's just like……
On the 37th island of Kirishima, Lao Zheng had arranged it just like that.
