"Really? That's not necessarily true. I don't believe a corpse that has died once can possess such immense power. I don't believe your body has absolutely no weaknesses!"
Zero said in a cold voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure vanished from the spot.
Jiang Quan was startled and quickly turned around to look behind him, only to find that Ling had already disappeared.
He froze on the spot, not knowing what was going on.
"Whoosh—"
Suddenly, a whooshing sound came from behind Jiang Quan. Jiang Quan hurriedly lunged forward, and a dagger slashed past his ear.
"hiss--"
Jiang Quan hurriedly covered his ears, and a piercing pain instantly spread throughout his body.
"Ha, just as I thought."
A knowing glint flashed in Zero's eyes.
Although Jiang Quan's body has strong defenses, areas such as his nose, eyes, and ears are his weakest points.
So, Zero cleverly used space to teleport behind Jiang's body, and would suddenly appear from time to time to attack his facial features, making it impossible for Jiang to defend against.
Zero was incredibly fast; he moved around Jiang Quan like a ghost, always ambushing him when Jiang Quan was completely unprepared.
Although Jiang Quan had strong defenses, his face was completely unprotected.
Zero repeatedly slashed Jiang Quan with his dagger, and each time he succeeded, he would instantly enter the space and disappear.
Jiang Quan could only passively take the beating.
He kept covering his face with his hands, not daring to let Zero attack his most vulnerable part, but it was no use. Zero was still able to find the right opportunity and stab him in the face.
"What kind of skill is hiding and dodging, Zero! If you have the guts, come out and let's have a fair fight!"
Jiang Quan roared.
Zero ignored Jiang Quan's taunts and continued to launch sneak attacks on him.
"Pfft, pfft—pfft!"
The dagger flew across Jiang Quan's cheek, leaving more than a dozen bloody marks on his face in an instant, making him look extremely horrific.
Jiang Quan was also furious, and he shouted loudly:
"Come out! I don't believe you really won't come out! Hiding won't help!"
Zero was too fast to catch, and Jiang Quan's words were in vain; Zero simply ignored him.
After a long stalemate, Jiang Quan's expression finally changed. He couldn't hold back any longer, so he suddenly gave up his defense and turned to run.
His action clearly surprised Zero, who hadn't expected him to choose to run away.
This is Jiang Quan's territory, and he actually managed to escape like that...
Zero couldn't help but look puzzled, wondering if there was something fishy going on...
But Zero's mind was still very sharp, and he immediately realized that Jiang Quan might be deliberately trying to lure him into making a move.
Thinking of this, Zero was not in a hurry to leave the space. He quietly followed behind Jiang Quan, keeping up with Jiang Quan's figure.
Jiang Quan ran wildly out of the main hall.
Strangely, the patrol personnel outside had all disappeared, and the entire base was unusually quiet.
"Huh? Why didn't he chase after us?"
As Jiang Quan ran outside, he looked around, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
That's right, Jiang Quan's escape was just to force Ling out.
If he stays hidden in the shadows and ambushes him from time to time, he will really have a hard time defending himself.
only……
Jiang Quan checked his physical condition; the effects of the demonization were about to wear off, and he could only last for about half a cup of tea's time at most...
If Zero continues to hide and not show up, wouldn't he fall into Zero's hands once his demonization ends?
Jiang Quan's heart tightened, and an anxious look appeared on his face.
no!
He had to get out of here before the demonization ended, as far away as possible!
Zero is unaware that his demonic state has a duration; what he needs to do now is leave this place as soon as possible!
With this in mind, Jiang Quan sped up considerably. He wanted to escape as quickly as possible, find a secluded place, wait for an opportunity, and then launch a counterattack.
He kept urging him on, hoping he could hurry up.
But at that moment, a cold glint suddenly appeared behind him!
"not good!"
Sensing danger, Jiang Quan immediately turned around, only to see Ling's cold eyes staring intently at him.
"Whoosh—"
In an instant, Zero appeared beside Jiang Quan.
"Whoosh—"
Ling swung the dagger in his hand toward Jiang Quan's neck. Jiang Quan was shocked and instinctively raised his hand to block.
As the demonization period shortened, the demonized parts of Jiang Quan gradually began to recover.
When Zero struck, he clearly felt a completely different sensation when the dagger made contact.
Thinking of this, Zero glanced at Jiang Quan and chuckled:
"Why do I feel like your defenses aren't as strong as before?"
Jiang Quan's face turned ashen, but he still tried to remain calm and said:
"You're overthinking it. I just didn't realize it for a moment."
His words were tinged with a deep sense of guilt.
Zero snorted coldly and said:
"Alright, but... whether you still have the same abilities as before, we'll find out by trying!"
With that, he flicked his arm and swiftly thrust the dagger in his hand. Jiang Quan's expression changed drastically. He had not expected Ling to make a move so quickly. He hurriedly dodged, but was still stabbed in the shoulder by Ling.
"Hmph, just as I expected."
Having succeeded in his attack, Zero became even more convinced of his idea.
Jiang Quan's defense and burst of power are indeed time-limited, and it seems he is nearing his limit.
"Hmph, it seems your demonic transformation is about to expire. Your speed and strength are not as good as before."
Zero said with a cold laugh.
"I'll let you go this time, but next time we meet, I'll definitely kill you!"
Jiang Quan said fiercely, glancing resentfully at his shoulder before quickly fleeing away.
He dared not delay any longer; if the demonization period ended completely, he would be in real danger.
Jiang Quan sped along, unwilling to stop for even a moment.
But Zero wouldn't allow Jiang Quan to escape like that, and he followed after him in a flash.
In the chase, both were quite fast. Although Jiang Quan was slower than Ling, Ling deliberately slowed down and continued to pursue Jiang Quan.
Jiang Quan was unaware that Ling had deliberately let him win, and was secretly delighted.
If I just give him a little more time, I'll be able to get rid of him...
Jiang Quan's mood gradually calmed down. He even began to hope that he could reach the teleportation channel set up by the organization before the demonization period ended and then leave this place.
"Swish—swish—swish"
Jiang Quan suddenly heard a flurry of footsteps behind him. He quickly turned around and saw Ling rushing after him.
That feeling of fear welled up inside me again.
He dared not hesitate any longer and could only run forward desperately.
