In fact, Nogiwa Takenobu was confused too. If his speculation about Lu Shu’s Class C level was true, Nogiwa would still be able to kill him even in close proximity. After all, he had full confidence that his Class B capabilities would not be affected, at most a certain degree of feebleness.
But Lu Shu seemed to be 100% certain of his victory as he drew closer!
In the cultivation realm, the weak were totally defenseless against the strong. There were few exceptions as one’s combat skills could not lie about his true strength.
But today, Nogiwa Takenobu had learned a lesson, tricks could outrun true power…Lu Shu had noticed it too. In the past, the Sun mirror was almost a piece of crap except for its illumination function. Even the head-twisting gourd was more useful than it! At the very least, the gourd could be used to effortlessly kill people. Lu Shu had even given this special technique of him a name, called “Attendance Taking”!
Yet, now that the gourd was on a strike, it led the example of being an unreliable weapon!
Until then, Lu Shu realized that the mirror could be rather effective when it was put to proper use!
He could fix the mirror in front of his chest to blind his opponents’ eyes, be it for close combats or far-ranged fights. In addition, the mirror was far better than normal high beams. Which high beams could make people’s eyes prick?!
When he became famous, who would dare to fight with Lu Shu without putting his shades on? Forcing every single expert in the world to wear sunglasses was an extraordinary feat too, wasn’t it…
At the moment, Lu Shu was running behind Nogiwa Takenobu in the tunnel. Though in this way Nogiwa’s vision would not be affected by the light, he couldn’t keep on running without looking back at all either…
Well, in fact, he HAD to be like that. His eyes would be temporarily blinded for a while so long as he turned…Then, Nogiwa reached the end of the straight tunnel. The passage turned into a corner!
Everything would be over after he hid in the corner and dealt a fatal blow to that disgusting-type Metahuman! Only that fellow’s death could erase his hatred now!
Anyway, that mirror could not violate the laws of physics to bend the path of light around corners. Thus, it would have no advantage there.
Hidden in the dogleg, Nogiwa Takenobu held his breath. His right hand gripped onto the handle of his katana, veins throbbing visibly on the back of his hands. His eyes were narrowed, eying for the instant to slash his enemy apart! He would not even mind if the light shone at that second, as his attack would definitely be lethal!
However, Lu Shu’s footsteps suddenly slowed down when approaching the corner. Nogiwa Takenobu was on tenterhooks. He was well aware of his opponent’s cunningness, but his old tricks would not work in this instance. So, do you still intend to pursue? Nogiwa sneered.
At that instant, a spear poked in furtively, and tied on its tip was … a Sun!
Kakakaka, the Sun mirror actually flashed ten times in the blink of an eye! Then it was immediately taken back!
Nogiwa Takenobu subconsciously hacked his katana forward, but only to hit the air! So was his purple snake!
“Freak!” it totally caught Nogiwa off guard. Now, in the absence of strong light, his vision was teeming with colorful dots, green, blue, red…
Why are there so many tricky moves?! Huh? What kind of fighter on Earth did the Heavenly Network groom?!
“From Nogiwa Takenobu’s distress, +1000!”
Nogiwa Takenobu immediately took to his heels, while his snake sprang to the air as defense against potential attack of flying daggers. But why had he not used his dagger yet? Forget it, the main priority now was to regain his vision somewhere safe!
Nogiwa’s power had almost plunged to the nadir of Class B. Now, he had given up his plan of killing Lu Shu, as the latter was not an ordinary Class C anyway, but an extremely disgusting one!
Frailty was setting in. Now, he must stabilize his strength or else, he might die!
But how would Lu Shu let go of this precious opportunity. It was a moment of life and death!
In an instant, Corpsedog and Concealed Arrow swooshed out from his celestial map. In a split second, Corpsedog had blocked the purple snake’s escape route and the two were trapped in a tangle! As Nogiwa’s weapon spirit was supplied with his Class B mana, it was no easy task to defeat the snake either. Thus, Lu Shu had no alternatives but to send in his Concealed Arrow too.
The snake was as quick as thunderbolts. The daggers and the serpent were engaged in an intense fight, leaving behind a trail of broken stone pieces!
Clearly the snake was targeting Lu Shu, but it was held back by the daggers.
It was a smart move on Nogiwa’s side. If Lu Shu exhibited any loopholes when fighting back his snake, he might still be able to reverse the situation.
With Corpsedog and Concealed Arrow dealing with the snake behind, Lu Shu glided through the tunnels swiftly with his divine water like a coming flood.
In fact, the divine water was large enough to fill up the entire space of a segment of the tunnel, even carrying Lu Shu midair!
The strong corrosiveness of the water smoothed the passage walls, but by no means slowing down the speed of traveling.
Usually, deceleration was necessary as one changed his direction when running. But it was different with the divine water with high permeability!
Seeing Lu Shu’s increased speed as compared to earlier, Nogiwa Takenobu was shocked and puzzled. Who was he, really? Besides his rare possession of two flying daggers, could he be a water-type Metahuman in addition to his strength-type power?!
That could explain the decision of the Heavenly Network to release him into the overseas remains this time! There were high expectations on him! According to the information available, there was indeed a hidden water-type talent under Chen Baili’s wings in southern Tibet!
Nogiwa Takenobu asked coldly as he ran, “Are you Zhao Mingke?”
“Never heard of the name. Like what I said, I am your Lord. Did you follow my words and transfer me the money…”Lu Shu shouted in Japanese.
“From Nogiwa Takenobu’s distress, +999!”
Nogiwa Takenobu almost choked on his anger. Why? Were you flexing your acting skills now, huh?!
