Chapter 173: No Martial Ethics
Li Qi is not someone who is unprepared.
Although the relics of this world are very powerful, powerful enough to almost make a person a god on earth.
Such as those original relics.
But these things are unreliable after all.
Apart from anything else, the angel's ability to invalidate any relic made Li Qi very wary.
Since then, Li Qi has been full of distrust towards relics.
You can use them, but if you really want to use these things as your trump cards, you may not even know how you died.
So Li Qi kept several tricks for himself.
All kinds of strange alchemical props that are not relics.
An alchemical arm hidden on the body that can replace one's relic hands at any time.
There are also various mechanisms hidden in the alchemist's arm, as well as special alchemical potions made by combining the fog beast materials in this world and the alchemical potions from his previous life.
That is the [temporary strengthening potion].
[Temporary Strengthening Potion], as the name suggests, can temporarily allow the body to possess physical qualities far superior to those of humans.
Li Qi confirmed the amplification strength of this potion through Ronnie's test.
He can increase a person's strength by three to five times, and can make the skin hard enough to withstand some bullets!
It can also greatly enhance the body's recovery and vitality. Even if someone penetrates the body, as long as it is not a vital part like the heart or the brain, the body can recover quickly within the duration of the potion.
Of course, this strengthening potion also has serious side effects.
When the effect of the strengthening potion wears off, the body will feel pain and there will be a period of weakness for at least six hours.
However, if there is healing magic, the recovery period will be shortened.
To be honest, Li Qi would never use strengthening potions unless he encountered an absolute last resort.
He has a lot of mechanisms in his hands. Even without using the relics, these mechanisms are enough to kill anyone who does not have enough information about him.
But not Grint.
It can be seen from the explosion just now that Grint's body is ridiculously hard!
The mechanism in Li Qi's hand would definitely not be able to break through his defense without energy amplification!
If you want to defeat the opponent, you can only use the "ultimate move"! The medicine is poured into the body, and the liquid flows into the heart through the blood and is instantly absorbed by the body.
Li Qi only felt his heart beating violently, and his whole body became lighter.
The strength is enhanced, the skin's defense is enhanced, and even the reaction speed is much faster than before! In obvious contrast, Grint, who was rushing towards Li Qi like a car, has become slower in Li Qi's eyes.
Although still fast, it was no longer impossible to dodge.
Even during this period, Li Qi thought of three ways to deal with it!
The method that Li Qi finally chose was——
Hard on hard! Clang! The physical fist and the artificial arm collided with each other, making a sound like the sound of iron hitting stone! Feeling the touch from the fist, Grint's face changed a little:
"Your hand—"
"Surprise?"
There is no sense of pain in the alchemical arms. Li Qi can use these arms to launch attacks beyond the limits of the human body without worrying about getting hurt.
After all, his arm was man-made and a replaceable part, so there was no need to worry about wear and tear, let alone the extent of damage.
Anyway, even if it breaks, Li Qi has a spare arm!
Even if he loses his spare arm, as long as Li Qi can use magic, he can use other means to make a new arm for himself!
So, there is no need to worry about any consequences.
Now that his physical fitness has been fully improved, he only needs to fight with Glint head-on! Besides, now that all other abilities are disabled, Li Qi can only rely on his own body.
Grint said nothing.
He stared at the place where his arm touched Li Qi's, and after a second of silence, he raised his fist again and smashed it at Li Qi!
The fist whistled down with a strong wind, and Li Qi could even see the wind generated by the fist swinging.
But Li Qi was not afraid or retreated. Facing the enemy's attack, Li Qi still chose to fight back.
The fist and arm collided again, this time not just briefly, but continuously.
The speed at which Grint's fists fell was getting faster and faster, gradually exceeding the limit of what humans could observe with the naked eye.
Li Qi was not to be outdone. With his enhanced reaction speed, Li Qi was barely able to keep up with Grint's movements.
There is almost no difference in strength, so the next thing to compete is skills.
The exchange of fistfights did not last long before Grint suddenly changed his tactics, raising his right foot and kicking towards Leech's lower body.
Li Qi, who had been prepared, immediately raised his foot to block it. At the same time, the blade in the mechanism of his arm popped out and stabbed at Grint at an extremely tricky angle.
"!?"
Perhaps he didn't expect that a blade could suddenly pop out of Li Qi's arm, so Grint was immediately startled and quickly dodged.
But Li Qi continued to attack without giving him a chance to breathe.
The offense and defense between the two people reversed in an instant.
"Where did you learn your fighting skills?"
After a few exchanges, Grint found an opportunity and clamped the blade in Li Qi's arm with his elbow and knee, and asked in surprise.
Grint was not surprised that Li Qi knew martial arts.
The Tanwu family not only have to face fog beasts in the fog, but also enemies from other directions, so it is normal for them to have fighting skills.
It’s just that the fighting skills of the Tanwu family are generally unsystematic, and are mostly aimed at large creatures.
But Li Qi's fighting skills...
Seems to be targeting only humans.
This is a killing skill specifically designed for killing people!
When did such a fighting style appear in Tan Wu's family? Grint was puzzled and had some doubts about Li Qi's identity.
Li Qi smiled slightly, raised his eyebrows and said, "Guess?"
As he spoke, his other free hand revealed a tiny gun barrel under the wrist and pointed it at Grint.
Although Li Qi's arms are spare, there is no shortage of things inside.
Not to mention the grappling hooks, shells, silk threads, darts and other things that had been displayed before, Li Qi also hid potions that could strengthen his body, poisons, and tiny projectiles.
Due to limited capacity, Li Qi's left and right hands were only equipped with an explosive alchemical bomb each.
But Li Qi packed a lot of small bullets that could be ejected.
Due to structural problems, although Li Qi could not make something like a gun, he could ensure that the bullets he fired could cause certain damage to the human body.
At least it should be a little more powerful than a crossbow arrow.
At this distance, if Grint was hit by Li Qi's bullet, the result would be self-evident.
Grint had good eyesight. The moment Richie pointed the gun at him, he noticed the tiny dark hole.
How much stuff did this little guy have in his hand? ! This thought flashed through his mind before he quickly dodged the muzzle of the gun, grabbed Li Qi's hand, and raised the muzzle of the gun.
Bang!
Several tiny bullets flew out from the holes and brushed past Grint's cheek.
Tiny bloodstains appeared on Grint's face, and ripples appeared on the transparent wall built by relics in the distance.
When Grint saw this, his eyes narrowed and some cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
Having been the warden of the prison for so many years, what kind of people has Glint not seen? Some come in with relics, some turn themselves into weapons, and some erase their personalities and focus on killing...
But no matter who comes, or how strong they are, as long as Grint deploys the duel platform, these people will have no choice but to surrender.
But this young kid in front of him made Glint feel a bit tricky and even threatening! Although he couldn't use relics and Qi, he could strengthen his body through other means.
Moreover, his fighting skills were extremely skillful, and the murderous aura emanating from him was extremely rare, giving Glint the feeling that he had walked out of a pile of dead bodies.
This world has never experienced war, so naturally it cannot understand the murderous aura in Li Qi's body as he retreated from the battlefield.
Although a lifetime has passed, the habits and combat skills that Li Qi formed on the battlefield cannot be easily changed.
Grint didn't know this, he just found it tricky.
What's even more troublesome is Li Qi's hands.
For the first time, Glint realized that a 'disabled person' could be so difficult to deal with! No, we can't delay any longer -
Realizing how difficult Li Qi was to deal with, Grint wanted to end the battle quickly.
He didn't know if Li Qi had any other tricks up his sleeve, but looking at the smile on the kid's face, Grint guessed that there must be some.
In order to avoid losing his advantage or being defeated by the enemy in an inexplicable way, Glint wanted to quickly resolve the battle while he still had the advantage!
With murderous intent in his eyes, Grint's blood rushed through his body, and suddenly his body seemed to have grown bigger.
A violent aura emanated from his body, and even his eyes turned red.
With even greater strength flowing into his body, Grint instantly grabbed Li Qi's arms and stared at him intently: "Boy! That's enough!!!"
"Tsk, are you angry already?"
Li Qi, whose hands were completely unable to move, did not get angry. Instead, he looked at Grint's expression with an ambiguous smile on his face.
Glint said angrily:
"I admit that you have many tricks up your sleeve, but I have to say that you underestimate me and this prison too much! Next, I will beat you up and then throw you out! When the time comes... don't cry out in pain!"
"You underestimated me, huh? Sorry, that's what I was going to say."
Li Qi was relaxed. He twisted his hands and moved away from Grint like a loach.
"?"
Grint looked at the two arms he was holding in his hands, and for a moment he couldn't react to what was happening.
Li Qi had time to take out his last spare right hand and inserted it into the gap in his right hand. After moving it around for a while, he pointed at Grint and asked:
"I say, don't you feel a little dizzy?"
"Um?"
It would have been better if Li Qi hadn't mentioned it. This mention made Grint immediately feel that his mind seemed to be a little slow.
He immediately realized that he seemed to have fallen into Li Qi's trap without realizing it.
Even though he was so prepared, he still fell into the opponent's trap!
"[Anesthetic], that's how I named it. It's colorless and odorless, easily volatile, and not considered a poison. Ordinary relics that detect poisons don't react to it either. It's perfect for using it to trick people."
Li Qi explained to Grint, watching his mountain-like body fall to his knees with a thud.
The anesthetic was effective. After a short while, Grint felt his eyelids were so heavy that he couldn't open them.
He released his hands, and his arms fell to the ground with two clangs.
"You...damn...little devil..."
In the end, Grint seemed to want to say something, but his will was ultimately no match for his body, and he fell forward to the ground, unable to get up again.
