Chapter 445 465. Gambling on Dignity
[Cup] seemed to know what would happen if she let it go, so she did not hesitate to attack [Lamp] at all, and even used some of the energy reserved for subsequent battles in advance, so that she could quickly cut down [Lamp].
The moment she approached, [Deng] had already "predicted" or anticipated her move. The moment her left hand was about to touch [Deng]'s arm, [Deng] moved away without any warning at the moment their skin was about to touch.
It cannot be too early, as this will allow the [Cup] to notice and change its trajectory. It cannot be too late, as it may not be fast enough to dodge. It must dodge at a delicate moment, and the predictive ability of the [Lamp] is enough to allow it to seize this opportunity perfectly.
His foresight prevented her from falling into any traps. [Cup] changed its attack method after just one attempt. Using tricks on [Lamp] would not work. Even if she emptied her mind and used her instincts, he would be able to predict it completely. So there was only one way, to use some abilities that would be completely insurmountable even if he foresaw it.
[Cup]'s blood-red eyes lit up, and then bloodshot spread from the corners of her eyes to the back like electrical circuits. A strange aura emanated from her body, and her [Heart] and [Cast], which had originally retained self-awareness, also underwent a change at this moment. Bloodshot spread out of their eyes, and then climbed from the corners of her eyes to half of her face, forming patterns exactly the same as [Cup].
The situation suddenly changed, and Mansu sensed the existence of the [Cup]. The thunder that had paused for a while due to the death of the [Moth] gathered again, but apart from the gradually gathering dark clouds, the sky also revealed a bit of blood color, as if there was something else brewing besides thunder.
Inside the bodies of [Heart] and [Cast], the originally flawless innate circuits were now entangled with countless blood-colored threads. These blood threads had long been entangled in the circuits, but only now had they become more unscrupulous, tightly wrapping around the circuits in an attempt to completely draw the blood in. The god's innate circuits also seemed to be unable to bear the burden, with tiny cracks appearing one after another. Blood was constantly penetrating deeper into the cracks, and it wouldn't be long before the circuits would be completely dyed red.
But before that, they had no ability to disperse the blood threads entangled in the circuit, because they were already at the end of their strength, and the energy in their bodies had long been almost dried up. At this moment, they could only allow the [Cup] to erode them.
At this moment, [Heart] and [Cast] have completely lost their "self" and have completely become puppets of [Cup]. [Cup] does not need to worry about their status, even if it uses them without restraint, completely drains all the energy in their bodies, or even overdraws, there is no need to worry. Using them is like using two extra arms. In a three-on-one situation, even if [Lamp] predicts her attack, there is no room for her to dodge.
[Qi] was already dying. His sneak attack on Xu Zhi just failed, and he had lost the ability to fight again. He was already seriously injured and had been fighting for such a long time. The little strength he had left was not enough to protect himself, so it was naturally impossible for him to target [Deng]. Although [Ren] was also at the end of his rope, he still had the strength to fight even when he was dying because of his attributes. At this moment, he knew that he was out, but a strong sense of unwillingness lingered in [Ren]'s heart. He thought that even if he was out, he would never let that troublemaker have an easy time.
When the [Cup] entangled the [Lamp], the [Blade] could not wait to escape from the battle. At this moment, Xu Zhi also released the moth state. So, the next moment, the tall figure of [Blade] instantly came in front of Xu Zhi. He held a huge axe in his hand, and his body and weapon were stained red with blood. The murderous aura and divine movement emanated from his extremely tall body, and every swing of the huge axe could cause the air to vibrate.
Even without using any extraordinary abilities, and relying solely on the "flesh" of a god, every attack he launched seemed to be able to split the mountain directly. Xu Zhi standing in front of him was like a child standing in front of an adult. Even though his huge body was covered with scars, he still looked indestructible.
But it's just an appearance.
If he was in his prime, Xu Zhi would have needed to avoid him, but now.
"How dare you bring yourself to my door?"
The girl's voice was filled with confusion, as if she didn't understand why He had the courage to come before her. This wasn't an evenly matched battle.
A bloodthirsty and crazy smile appeared on [Blade]'s face: "Why wouldn't I dare?"
As he spoke, the giant axe swung down, and the blood-red blade light swept across the position where Xu Zhi was standing. It seemed that the girl was about to be cut in half, but suddenly the scene blurred, and the severed girl suddenly disappeared before his eyes. The voice came from behind him again: "You should know that you can't touch me now even if you try."
Upon hearing this, [Blade]'s expression turned grim, as if humiliated, but he only snorted coldly, "I only fear failure, not fighting or death. You say I can't touch you?"
"That's not necessarily true!"
A strong light burst out from Blade's eyes, ears, and even mouth. Xu Zhi saw that his circuit was slightly broken. Those strong lights were the last energy emitted when the circuit was broken.
At this moment, Blade's body and skin were cracking like a shattered circuit, and strong light was emitting from those cracks. He was like a nuclear reactor about to explode. Xu Zhi could sense the huge energy surging in his body just by standing in front of him, but she was not afraid of it.
She just sighed and said, "What a pity."
Most of this circuit is broken. Even if it is swallowed, the improvement will not be much. The two circuits of [Heart] and [Casting] have been contaminated by [Cup] and are also broken. The only ones left are [Start] and [Light].
However, although Xu Zhi mocked, her body was honestly prepared for defense. This was a blow in which [Blade] risked its dignity and everything. She could feel that she was being locked. This was probably not an attack that could be avoided by turning into a moth or hiding in a crack in space.
The "tattoo" of the clan was slightly hot. When [Blade] raised the giant axe and chopped down the attack that was absolutely unavoidable, the earth of Mansu seemed to tremble. Thunder in the sky also fell at this moment. Countless silver lightning illuminated the land covered by dark clouds and blood, and also illuminated the girl who was targeted under the giant's body.
The sound of space being torn apart was accompanied by a powerful pressure. Xu Zhi's expression was solemn. Countless regular patterns flashed quickly in her eyes. They were symbols of the many extraordinary abilities she was using at this moment. The patterns of the followers flickered slightly. Some of the followers that had been released were taken back into her body. Then, as her right hand swung forward, a Saker Falcon, which was faster than the silver lightning falling from the sky, flew out of Xu Zhi's body, targeting the [Blade] that was about to attack her.
