too crazy.
For most hybrids, even A-level hybrids, Deadpool is not someone to be underestimated. Although they have lost the ability to release incantations, their physique, defense, and vitality far surpass those of ordinary hybrids.
Even without using incantations, an A-grade hybrid wouldn't have an easy time taking on a single Deadpool, let alone a group of at least a hundred Deadpools.
But now the Deadpool group is being slaughtered.
Is this the Super A-rank that is called the "Messiah"?
Chapter 53 Undying Bones
Chen Motong recalled the knowledge he had learned and guessed which of the sky and wind series Gao Kui's words of power belonged to.
However, the girl's knowledge was ultimately inferior to Chu Tianjiao's, and Gao Kui's enhanced Yin Flow was too bizarre. The girl thought long and hard, but could not find a completely matching Word of Power in the Word of Power sequence list.
It's truly a mystery; the power of words, like the person themselves, is somewhat incomprehensible.
The situation was critical, so Chen Motong stopped dwelling on the details and stopped thinking about Gao Kui's words of power. Chen Motong gradually discovered a few more strange points.
"No way... how is this possible?"
The girl's bright pupils gradually contracted, as if from the moment she left until now, the number of the dead servants killed by Gao Kui had reached several dozen, roughly a quarter of the total number in this Nibelungen.
But Gao Kui still hadn't run out of bullets, and the Glock kept firing nonstop without ever changing the magazine.
His mental and physical condition remained stable, as if releasing the power of words for so long had not caused him any depletion, which was extremely abnormal.
Using Words of Power consumes the hybrid's mental and physical strength. Some Words of Power consume more mental strength, while others consume more physical strength. In short, there is a consumption.
Most hybrids cannot weaponize their Word of Power; for them, it is more often a trump card to deliver the final blow.
Chen Motong finally understood what Gao Kui meant by "making a living by using the power of words".
If someone can use such powerful and wide-range verbal attacks as a regular means of combat, and their physical body is relatively weak, then they really don't need melee weapons.
Seriously, isn't this just a human-shaped artillery emplacement?
The humanoid turret in Chen Motong's mind hadn't moved an inch since the beginning, only mechanically releasing its words of power to slaughter the attacking death servants.
The heroic warrior wasn't in a hurry to attack; he was happy to let the underlings handle things first. Later, when he clashed with the heroic warrior, these seemingly harmless underlings might become the X factor.
The heroic warrior stood motionless, coldly directing the army of dead servants to their deaths. For a being of his caliber, dead servants were the least of his worries—expendable resources.
Deadpool's ability to use their deaths to confirm or rule out a possibility is considered extremely useful.
Without any warning, when two-thirds of the Deadpools had been slaughtered and a fleeting path had appeared between Gao Kui and him, the Heroic Warriors finally moved.
With its sharp toe bones protruding from its toes, the highly evolved dragon-like warrior stomped on the ground, creating spiderweb-like cracks in the asphalt. The heroic spirit warrior held its sword horizontally in front of its chest, pushing aside the air in its path, and launched itself towards Gao Kui and the other two.
I've been on guard against you for a while now!
Gao Kui crossed his arms in an X-shape in front of his chest, redirecting most of the high-speed airflow channels within his domain to slash at the oncoming heroic warriors.
Seven or eight sharp blades of air slashed at the heroic warrior, but most of the attacks were ineffective, leaving only a few marks on the dark gold armor, adding a touch of battle-hardened solemnity to the armor.
However, there were two strikes that landed on the wrists and abdomens of the heroic warriors, severing several thinner bone spurs, breaking through the bluish-gray scales on their bodies, and revealing the bright red flesh beneath.
It can break through defenses!
Gao Kui's spirits were lifted.
Before this, his only worry was that the Yin Flow wouldn't be able to break through the opponent's defenses, which would reduce his chances of winning to almost zero, unless he used a cheat code. But if he could break through the defenses, even if a single Yin Flow couldn't cause much damage, his chances of winning would increase significantly.
Braving the onslaught of seven or eight wind blades, the heroic warrior, like a bullet train, charged towards Gao Kui in an instant, gripping his sword with both hands and using the momentum of his charge to slash horizontally at Gao Kui.
The sword moved with fluid grace, without releasing even a trace of power. A dazzling, horizontal windmill-like blade of light cleaved through the air—this was the heroic warrior's long-awaited, deadly strike.
He was confident that this strike would be enough to kill Gao Kui, who was not using Longinus.
Click...
A sickening scraping sound came from where the ring-pommel sword met Gao Kui's arm. The sharp blade tore through the flesh of Gao Kui's right arm, but failed to leave a single mark on the radius bone. The expected scene of Gao Kui being cut in half at the waist did not appear.
The charging heroic warriors were like a bullet train. Gao Kui, who used his Undying Bone to block their fatal blow, was indeed hit by a bullet train. Blood spurted from the wound on the outside of his arm, and he flew backward.
This can be considered a form of self-protection, as it can deflect a significant portion of the impact exerted on him by the heroic warriors.
After flying more than ten meters backward, Gao Kui felt the impact lessen and then spread his legs backward, using a motion similar to a back kick to stop his retreat. He looked up and glared at the heroic warrior with a snarl.
Damn, that's some real strength. I wish I had that kind of strength someday.
If it weren't for the prophecy of "not a single bone can be broken," this cut would surely have severed him in half.
The golden eyes, a deep gold, and the golden eyes, a molten red gold, blazed with intense, dazzling light. Such eye color and such light meant that both of their bloodlines far surpassed those of ordinary hybrids.
Even mixed-race individuals whose bloodline doesn't reach Grade A will instinctively feel fear, tremble, or even kneel down and lose all will to resist simply by looking into those two pairs of golden eyes.
The moment their eyes met, the heroic warrior flipped his wrist and swung his sword swiftly, slashing at... Chen Motong, who was closer to him.
His primary target was Chen Motong; Gao Kui was merely an unfortunate coincidence. Since this culprit who caused him to lose a key general had entered Nibelungen, he might as well deal with him as well.
The heroic warrior slashed at Chen Motong, but Gao Kui remained expressionless and did not rush forward. He simply continued to release the Word of Power: Yin Flow, and added some minor variations to this Word of Power according to the usage method in his "memory".
He wanted to save Chen Motong. He might be crazy, but he wasn't really stupid.
Now that Chen Motong has Longinus in her grasp, it's highly unlikely that she'll be easily killed by the heroic spirits. If she were to die so easily, it would only prove that she deserved to die, that she was stupid enough to deserve to die.
The heroic warriors' attempt to coerce Chen Motong into submission is doomed to fail.
Clang!
Chen Motong raised her sword to parry. The physique and skills she had developed through years of training in the Chen family allowed her to barely block the sword strike from the heroic warrior.
Just like Gao Kui, who had been slashed and sent flying, the girl also staggered backward for more than ten meters. The girl's physique was indeed stronger than Gao Kui's, but not by much, and not even up to the passing grade for an A-level hybrid.
She was still young, and she wasn't the kind of A-grade hybrid who was good at close combat.
Just as the heroic warriors were about to continue their pursuit of Chen Motong, Gao Kui's attack came again.
Chapter 54 is not available today; I'm not entirely satisfied with how it was written.
I wrote over a thousand words, and even though I was almost finished, I still felt dissatisfied. I kept reading it over and over, and it just didn't feel right. It wasn't tragic, awkward, or crazy. It felt like a pure wish-fulfillment story, without that "Dragon Raja" vibe.
I'll spend another night thinking about how to write it, and I'll make up for the missing chapter tomorrow.
Chapter 55 Cult Movies
Although it is also a Yin flow, the Yin flow released this time is different from all the previous Yin flows.
Dozens of sharp air currents intertwined and linked together to form a spiral wind pressure airflow resembling a drill bit, like a soaring dragon in the sky, blowing towards the unarmored abdomen of the heroic warrior.
This is a variation of the Yin-style technique, inspired by the Spiral Force from Gurren Lagann, the Cyclone Charge Tornado from Let's & Go!!, the ultimate move of the protagonist in Shin Megami Tensei V: Murakumo, and Gilgamesh's Ea from Fate...
Different works, etc.
High-speed spirals can greatly increase the impact force of water flow and airflow, a fact known to most people, including Gao Kui, who is always last in Shilan High School.
His mental strength and the manipulability of his words also supported him in doing so.
Most of the Words of Power, such as Eye of the Wind King, Lord's Flame, Sword Control, Blaze, etc., can be used flexibly and are not limited to being used as a fixed skill.
However, most people cannot perform such precise manipulation. Precise manipulation of incantations would make the domain more unstable and exacerbate the consumption of mental energy; most hybrids do not possess the ability to precisely manipulate incantations.
Fortunately, Gao Kui possessed unlimited spiritual power, allowing him to roam freely.
The spiraling airflow swept across the river like a raging dragon, catching the heroic warrior off guard. He believed he had already tested Gao Kui's condition.
With unlimited mental power, a strong but not strong enough enhanced Yin energy, and a weak physique, as long as Gao Kui doesn't suddenly unleash his cheat-like power again, there's absolutely no way to stop him from killing Chen Motong.
Before actually taking action, he also had a large number of Deadpools test Gao Kui's condition.
The skillful use of the Undying Bones and the Yin Flow, two unexpected yet reasonable factors, truly gave him a pleasant surprise.
Unable to dodge or pursue Chen Motong, the heroic warrior raised his sword to parry.
The high-speed spiral airflow impacted the blade of the Tang Hengdao, producing a teeth-grinding, ear-piercing sound, and leaving shallow marks on the surface of the blade.
The heroic warrior, who was wielding a sword with both hands to withstand the spiraling airflow, was pushed back by the enormous impact. His hands gripped the hilt tightly, and his bluish-gray scales and pale bone spikes stood up violently, a posture similar to that of an ordinary person exerting force with their blood surging.
A deep roar came from beneath the mask, and the heroic spirit finally managed to push the spiraling airflow off course by a slight angle using brute force.
A spiraling current swept across the left side of the Heroic Spirit's waist and abdomen, scraping off countless bluish-gray scales and fresh flesh like a meat grinder. Gao Kui had truly injured the Heroic Spirit.
Ignoring the injuries to his waist and abdomen, and realizing that Gao Kui could pose a threat to him, the golden eyes beneath the heroic spirit's black iron mask shone brightly. He abandoned Chen Motong, drew his sword, and charged towards Gao Kui.
A dark current!
The previous spiral airflow required a certain amount of charging and preparation. In the rush, Gao Kui only had time to use the ordinary Yin Flow. As several sharp airflows blew towards the heroic spirit, Gao Kui himself also ran wildly to meet the heroic spirit.
Speed, strength, endurance, mobility, explosiveness...
The hero's basic attributes far surpass those of ordinary A-rank hybrids, almost comparable to Chu Tianjiao on the overpass before activating his Bloodlust, and his defensive capabilities are far superior.
Trying to kite this kind of enemy is almost impossible; constantly dodging and engaging in close combat will only result in being suppressed even more severely.
In that case, then do the opposite.
Gao Kui threw himself at the heroic spirit, raising his arms and using his forearms to meet the ring-pommel sword.
When his forearm radius clashed with the ring-pommel sword, Gao Kui, whose strength was far inferior to that of the mighty Ying Ling, was unsurprisingly forced to retreat again. This time, he only had to retreat three or four steps before he stopped.
On the one hand, forces are reciprocal; the impact force of Gao Kui's charge can offset some of the force exerted on him by the heroic spirits.
On the other hand, before engaging the heroic spirit in close combat, Gao Kui adjusted his posture, slightly hunching his waist and leaning his upper body forward, spreading his legs and pushing off the ground as if he were about to wrestle with the heroic spirit.
Instead of deflecting the force, they engage in a direct confrontation, which would result in most hybrids suffering broken bones and ligament injuries. This posture would transfer almost all the impact force to their legs, and the bone strength of most hybrids would not be able to withstand this force.
However, Gao Kui possesses indestructible bones, and as long as he can endure the pain, he can fight in a way that is almost self-destructive.
Without retreating too far after taking a hit from a Heroic Spirit, Gao Kui didn't even catch his breath. His golden eyes shone brightly as he repeatedly threw himself at the Heroic Spirit, charging towards a powerful opponent whose overall abilities far surpassed his own.
His swung arms clashed repeatedly with the ring-pommel sword, each clash producing a teeth-grinding sound.
The heroic spirit changed his sword-wielding posture from two hands to one hand, transforming the chopping into a slicing motion. The long sword swirled and danced like a shooting star streaking across the sky, the dazzling sword light and flying flesh and blood forming a magnificent and splendid flower.
Between the blooming and withering of flowers, almost all the flesh on Gao Kui's forearms was removed, allowing Chen Motong to clearly see the two pairs of ulna and radius bones.
"Bloody" is not enough to describe Gao Kui's miserable state at this moment. His forearms were now only a little flesh and blood still attached to the bones.
Apart from his forearms, Gao Kui's legs are also not in good condition.
The bones at the joints rubbed and collided repeatedly, tearing the cartilage and muscle fibers, and the blood seeping out from the inside stained the two trouser legs red.
