Chapter 372 World Chapter: Squatting, Counter-squatting, and Being Counter-squatted (Part )

He is not human.

But it was created by the devil; a monster.

Well, actually, Bai Qi had once been an ordinary person, but that memory had long been confused and blurred, and this was the 'price' he had to pay for becoming a monster.

He was so weak, even incomplete, that the strength of a child was enough to knock him over. Perhaps this was one of the reasons why he voluntarily endured the bone-eroding pain brought by soaking in the pool of blood and became a monster.

He longed to be strong, because being weak, like the millions of soldiers, simply could not survive in this world where the strong prey on the weak, let alone become the sword in the hands of that "man"
Bai Qi once read a book called the Notes of the great sage Jixia, which said: Everyone has the meaning of his or her own existence.

Wan Gu Chang Ming is a saint, and the words of a saint are absolutely correct, just like Bai Qi always firmly believed that the meaning of his existence is to die for that 'man'.

This man is the current king of Xuanyong; Ying Zheng.

They grew up together, but unlike him who was of lowly status, A Zheng was of extremely noble status and was a descendant of the royal family with the purest bloodline. Due to the huge disparity in status, although A Zheng would bully and tease him, when he suffered from the bullying and ridicule of the people around him, A Zheng was the only one who never despised him.

In the whole world, only A Zheng treated him, who was as lowly as a dog, as a brother sincerely!
As the saying goes, a gentleman will die for his confidant, so, even if his vocal cords were damaged due to long-term immersion in the medicine pool, even if his memory began to become confused due to frequent magic surgeries, even if he became a terrifying monster with a hard shell and penetrating skin, and even every battle would burn and consume his vitality, Bai Qi still felt that it was worth it.

If you want to get something, you have to pay something of corresponding value. This world is actually very fair, isn’t it?
He admires A Zheng and worships A Zheng, so as long as he can become the sword in his hand, no matter how great the price, it will be worth it!
Therefore, he can bear the infamy of [the ultimate weapon].

Even when he learned that he and A Zheng were cousins, he remained silent and was only excited about their blood connection.

In order to allow A Zheng to ascend the throne smoothly, he could even voluntarily destroy his own humanity and bury and kill an entire army alive in the wilderness!

He lived and died only for A Zheng.

So, three days ago, when A Zheng, who had grown into an emperor, sat on the magnificent throne and told him that an unknown enemy was attacking, he could also stand quietly in the grass for three days and three nights at A Zheng's request, just to be able to obstruct and eliminate A Zheng's enemies!

As a result, everything happened just as A Zheng expected, and the enemy came to the door on his own initiative.

This was an unexpected encounter.

Tachibana Ukyo would never have thought that while the mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole is behind it. He should have been hiding in the bushes to prepare for an ambush, but unexpectedly ran into the enemy who had been lurking there!

Xuanyong had already predicted that they would take advantage of the bushes to launch an ambush!
Of course, as a well-known swordsman, Tachibana Ukyo is undoubtedly excellent in both combat ability and psychological quality, so after only a second of hesitation, he drew his sword almost instinctively.

2nd skill [Iai]!
With the clanging sound of the long sword being unsheathed, Tachibana Ukyo drew his sword and stabbed the enemy at swift speed.

All of this, from the encounter to the drawing of the sword and stabbing, happened in just 1 second. Ukyo displayed the superb reaction ability that an assassin should have. His moves were so fast, accurate and ruthless that the enemy had no chance of avoiding them.

only--

Ding!
Amid the crisp sound of metal clashing, the tip of Tachibana Ukyo's sword accurately pierced the enemy's heart. However, apart from leaving a dent on Bai Qi's hard black armor and triggering the passive stun of his second skill [Iai], it only reduced Bai Qi's health by less than one-tenth!

This is also a matter of course.

As the most loyal supporters of Jixia Academy, the heroes of Xuanyong have all received extra favor from Jixia Academy. Bai Qi's level had already reached the highest level of LV15 many years ago. In this case, there will naturally be a slight gap between him and Tachibana Ukyo, who is only LV13.

But the most important thing is that, as the purest tank hero, Bai Qi’s attack power may not be as outstanding as that of a magic assassin hero, but his defense power is absolutely terrifying!

Almost at the moment of being attacked, although Bai Qi's consciousness was briefly lost due to the influence of Tachibana Ukyo's passive stun, Bai Qi's passive was also triggered at the same time.

1st skill [Echo of Blood]!
Bai Qi swings his scythe to wash the area around him, dealing 400 (+40% physical bonus) (+3% maximum health) physical damage to enemies in range and recovering 2% of lost health. Hitting an enemy hero will recover an additional 2% of lost health.

The terrifying thing about Bai Qi is that after being forged by magic, he not only possesses excellent defensive capabilities, but all of his skills also come with passive skills.

[Blood Echo] is not only an active skill, but also has a 20% chance of being triggered once attacked by the enemy!
Tachibana Ukyo's luck was obviously not very good. Just when he thought he had controlled Bai Qi, the giant sickle in Bai Qi's hand suddenly bounced back like a spring that had been compressed to the extreme, and swung towards him suddenly!

"?!"

At the critical moment, Tachibana Ukyo jumped back and created some distance.

The extremely sharp giant sickle just scratched across Tachibana Ukyo's chest, leaving a shallow blood mark on his chest, and also cut the dense grass within a three-meter range into a circular hole!

Amidst the strong wind and flying catkins, Bai Qi's health recovered by 4%. Basically, he almost wiped out the damage of Tachibana Ukyo's skills with just this passive skill.

Of course, Tachibana Ukyo did not give up. As soon as he landed, he moved forward smoothly with a sudden mid-air flip.

1st skill [Swallow Returns]!
The reason why Tachibana Ukyo is called an assassin is because he possesses superb pursuit skills.

Bang!
As it flew over Bai Qi's head, Tachibana Ukyo's blade also slashed down across Bai Qi's shoulder, triggering the second stage displacement effect of [Swallow Returns].

Tachibana Ukyo was very smart. He used the force to bypass Bai Qi and used the second displacement technique to attack Luban No. 7 directly outside the bushes!

A skilled assassin knows how to bypass tanks and kill the squishy targets first.

So, although they were also shocked that there was an enemy lying in ambush in the bushes, when Tachibana Ukyo rushed towards Luban No. 2, Miyamoto Musashi in front of him also tacitly activated his second skill [Super Speed]. After penetrating through the Qin army at lightning speed, he also rushed towards Luban No. .

They all have only one goal, to take the head of the enemy general among thousands of soldiers and horses; to kill Luban No. 7!

Miyamoto Musashi and Tachibana Ukyo had read the information of the various heroes of the Xuanyong faction distributed by Wang Yao. They knew that Bai Qi was a pure tank hero with excellent defensive attributes, so they naturally would not be foolish enough to tangle with Bai Qi. As long as they killed Luban No. 7 first, there would be plenty of time to slowly peel off the tortoise shell of the ultimate weapon later!

however--

Puff! With the muffled sound of a sharp object drilling out of the ground, three giant claws up to 2 meters high suddenly broke out of the ground in front of Luban No. without any warning, as if the evil spirits in hell stretched out their deformed palms towards the ground!
2nd skill [Scythe of Death]!
Bai Qi summons a sickle at the designated location, dealing 350 (+100% physical bonus) points of spell damage to enemies within the range and pulling them back after a certain delay; at the same time reducing the enemy's movement speed by 50%!

Miyamoto Musashi and Tachibana Ukyo, who were almost approaching Luban No. 7, saw this and their faces changed at the same time, and then they quickly put their swords in front of them!

Dangshi——

The three giant claws violently collided with the two men's weapons during the process of pulling back. The powerful force confrontation caused violent sparks to flash between the two, and inevitably pushed Miyamoto Musashi and Tachibana Ukyo back nearly five meters!
This was a duel between masters! The attacker was desperate, while the defender was impeccable! In the end, the latter was slightly better.

Miyamoto Musashi, who had not expected Bai Qi to have such rich combat experience, subconsciously said "tsk", his expression suddenly darkened, and he immediately activated his famous skill -

3rd skill [Two days and one flow]!
Zheng!
Using both swords, Miyamoto Musashi suddenly leaped into the sky from his original position. At that moment, thunder and lightning struck! The color of the entire sky was suddenly covered by the brilliant golden and blue colors emitted by the two blades in Miyamoto Musashi's hands! 1 second later——

"drink!!"

Miyamoto Musashi suddenly descended from the sky with overwhelming force!

It all happened so fast that even Bai Qi had no time to stop it, and Luban No. 7 had nowhere to hide.

Snap——

The moment he landed, in the midst of the terrifying cyclone, Miyamoto Musashi's double swords directly cut a hideous X-shaped wound on Luban No. 7's chest. The powerful residual force of the fall even shook Luban No. 7 off the ground!
Afterwards, when Luban No. 7 fell back to the ground, before the person could stand firmly, Miyamoto Musashi had already pierced its body with a knife in both hands. For a moment, wood chips flew everywhere!
Miyamoto Musashi's ultimate skill [Niten Ichiryu] has the effect of knocking up and slowing down the enemy. Not only that, his passive skill [Demon Hunt] can also change his next normal attack after releasing the skill into a charged attack with excellent damage. Therefore, after this ultimate skill plus a charged attack, the blood bar above Luban No. 7's head suddenly dropped to a critical level of one-fifth!
With just one more strike, he could kill the mechanical creature in front of him!
But just when even Miyamoto Musashi thought that everything was safe, Luban No. 7, who had endured his full-strength attack and should have been a fish on the chopping board, was not panicked at all. Instead, he turned around and quickly took out a shark-tooth cannon that was a circle larger than his body from the small wooden box behind him (God knows what the principle is), and aimed it steadily at Miyamoto Musashi who was close at hand.

"Let's test the power of the new invention!" With extremely excited shouting, Luban No. 7 pulled the trigger one after another.

Skill 2 [Invincible Shark Mouth Cannon]!
The hammer hit the primer of the shell, and in the smoke of a large amount of self-igniting primer, a shark-head-shaped missile suddenly shot towards Miyamoto Musashi with the strong propulsion of gunpowder!
"Um?!!"

Even Miyamoto Musashi had no time to dodge this counterattack, and he could only hold his two swords against his chest for defense. However, the thrust of the missile was obviously stronger than his strength, and in the end, Miyamoto Musashi was pushed back nearly 10 meters by the missile. Then -

Go boom!

Amidst the earth-shaking explosion, the Shark missile suddenly exploded, and in an instant, Miyamoto Musashi was completely submerged in a gorgeous mushroom cloud of fire!

Luban No. 2's second skill [Invincible Shark Cannon] also has the effect of repelling the enemy, which has an unexpected effect at the critical moment!
"みやもと! (Miyamoto!)"

Seeing this, Tachibana Ukyo's face turned cold and he wanted to continue chasing Luban No. 7, but just as he took a step, a black object flew towards him.

1st skill [Pufferfish Grenade]!
Luban throws a puffer grenade to the designated location, causing 700 (+75% physical bonus) physical damage to enemies within the range and reducing their movement speed by 25%!

Faced with the oncoming bomb, Tachibana Ukyo was caught off guard. Relying on his instinctive alertness, he could only brake and quickly move to the side.

boom!
The puffer grenade exploded. Although Tachibana Ukyo was not hit head-on, he was still affected and his movement speed was reduced by 25%. It was now difficult for him to catch up.

Although Luban No. 7 is just a fragile puppet, he is very smart. At least this counterattack caught the two masters, Miyamoto Musashi and Tachibana Ukyo, off guard.

at the same time--

Just when Luban No. 7 slightly repelled the two Fuso men, Bai Qi from behind had already caught up.

This monster, which was feared by everyone in Xuanyong, suddenly leaped into the sky and landed between Miyamoto Musashi and Luban No. 7. Its heavy body, which was composed of a large amount of concentrated metal, shook the ground so much that it could not bear it and cracks appeared. Then, when Bai Qi raised his face with a hunched back, an unprecedentedly powerful pressure turned into a bloody mist, instantly covering Miyamoto Musashi and Tachibana Ukyo.

Skill 3 [Arrogant Taunt]!
"Ugh?!"

"Damn it!"

Miyamoto Musashi and Tachibana Ukyo both groaned, and were completely unable to move due to this sudden pressure!

Taking advantage of this moment, Luban No. 7 jumped back to his own defense tower.

"Abominable! (Abominable)!"

Miyamoto Musashi was a little confused at the time, he would never have thought that after all the powerful combination of him and Ukyo Tachibana, and even using their ultimate skills, they still let the cooked duck fly away in the end. The scene of letting the enemy run away with low health, if he said it was not disgusting, he would be lying!
Killing Luban No.7 is a very simple thing if Bai Qi is not there; somehow, it seems to be in line with the popular experience that the success or failure of a real high-end game depends on whether the auxiliary can play
"Hahaha! This is incredible!" Luban No. 7, who had escaped by chance, was naturally very happy during the escape. Not only did he frequently look back and laugh at Miyamoto Musashi and Tachibana Ukyo who had black faces, but he even walked in an extremely arrogant manner.

In the canyon, there are many people who don't like it, and there are countless people who want to kill it, so the most proud moment for Luban No. 7 is to watch the enemy's determination to win at the beginning, but his dejected expression in the end!
However, at this time, Lu Ban No. 7 seemed to have completely forgotten that there is an idiom in this world: "Extreme joy leads to sorrow."

Just when Luban No. 7 thought it was safe, before it could walk back to the depths of the defense tower, suddenly, it found that a straight, thin line with a strange blue glow was connected to its body without its knowledge.

"???"

Luban No. 7 stopped and looked along the thin line towards its source in confusion; the other end of the line was far away in the grass between the defense tower and the river.

What the hell?

It tilted its head and stared at the lush grass, like a little mouse seeing a cat for the first time, full of curiosity, until -

A giant energy ball with a radius of 2 meters flew in mid-air along the blue line and blasted towards it fiercely.

3rd skill [Spirit Bomb]!
Boom! !
When the energy ball touched Luban No. 7, it was like a torpedo that suddenly exploded in the deep sea. The extremely terrifying blast wave even caused the space within the range to distort like ripples, and instantly turned Luban No. 7, which was only left with a layer of blood, into broken parts flying all over the sky!

In addition, the test server has remade Bai Qi's model. Many official settings have actually been changing all the time, so what I want to say is that if there are deviations in the text, please don't mind. It's not that I'm not rigorous, it's really helpless. 】
