Boom!
The roar of thunder spread across the battlefield, with thick smoke carrying sparks spreading through the crowd, dirt scattering, and a slender figure passed through the smoke.
"What a grudge."
The silver-haired girl clenched her jaws tightly. She regretted provoking a certain soone earlier.
Clang!
A large, pale blue blade aura, about five ters in diater, flew over. Wherever the blade aura passed, the Beastman race and Dwarf clan fell like harvested wheat.
The silver-haired girl hurriedly dove to the ground, the sharp blade aura passing above her head, cutting off a few strands of her silver hair.
"Phantom body."
Near the silver-haired girl, light and shadows twisted as she split into three phantom clones, making four of them in total, including her original self.
Bang, bang, bang...
Dense energy bullets swept over, so densely packed they ford a bullet chain.
The bullets passed unhindered through the three phantom clones, and the silver-haired girl, crying bitterly, continued to flee deeper into the tribe’s territory.
Whoosh~
The piercing sound of the wind breaking ca, lifting the girl’s long silver hair. Her amber eyes narrowed tightly, and an image appeared in her mind—a combination effect of her abilities and equipnt.
The scene in the girl’s mind was: a blade slashing toward her neck, first cutting through her long silver hair, then slicing through her skin, muscles, and bones, until her head was completely severed.
The silver-haired girl shivered. At this mont, Su Xiao, holding the Dragon Slash, appeared beside her, closing the distance quickly with Shave.
The Boundary Line shot out and wrapped toward the silver-haired girl as Su Xiao simultaneously tightened the line and swung his long knife down.
"Mad Drear."
The silver-haired girl’s slender fingers pointed to the sky, maintaining her previous posture. This ti, Su Xiao paid no attention and directly slashed down with his blade.
Swish~
The Dragon Slash sliced through the air, with droplets of blood staining its blade.
A red mark appeared on the white neck of the silver-haired girl, but her body had beco semi-transparent.
"That was close."
The silver-haired girl gasped with lingering fear. If she had been even a fraction of a second slower in activating her ability, her head would have been severed.
"Sure enough, you’re a pervert who likes chopping off heads."
At this mont, the silver-haired girl was very close to Su Xiao, no more than two ters apart. She first touched the Dragon Slash with her hand, a silver crystal enwrapping its surface, preventing it from striking enemies.
The Boundary Line wrapped around the silver-haired girl, but her body was semi-transparent and couldn’t be attacked, so the line rely passed through her body.
The girl’s ability was similar to Uchiha Obito’s in the Naruto World, but whereas Obito’s ability involved spatial manipulation, the silver-haired girl shuttled between illusion and reality.
As the Boundary Line left her body, she lunged at Su Xiao.
"Mad Drear: Mist Forest."
The silver-haired girl’s eyes t Su Xiao’s, her amber eyes emitting a gentle glow. She embraced Su Xiao as if holding a lover tenderly. She had turned solid again, not because she didn’t want to escape, but because ’Mad Drear: Mist Forest’ had a very short duration, preventing her from escaping far.
"Lost between the virtual and the reality..."
The girl wore an expression of triumph as if she had successfully counterattacked.
Was that really the case?
Bang!
"Oh!"
Su Xiao delivered a knee strike to the silver-haired girl’s abdon, causing her to vomit sour water and her body to arch backward and fly away.
In the girl’s expectations, Su Xiao should have been lost in the illusory world, trapped in ntal paralysis. However, Su Xiao’s Blade of Mind made him immune to spiritual skills.
As the girl flew back, Su Xiao took a quick step forward, grabbing her throat with his tal-armored hand. He considered pulling out the Slaughter Throat Cut but getting it from the storage space required ti, and by the ti it was in his hand, the silver-haired girl would have been out of attack range.
Su Xiao applied pressure with his hand, and a crystal layer spread over the girl’s neck, shattering with a crack. Tears welled up in her eyes, and the icy contact of tal against her skin told her she was about to die.
"I... don’t want to..."
At the brink of life and death, the silver-haired girl reached desperately for the crystal pendant on her neck, ignoring the cost.
Bam!
A bullet from an unknown direction hit Su Xiao’s arm. The mont it touched, it shattered, releasing a gray-purple dust.
Crack, crack, crack~
The gray-purple dust quickly ford a coral layer, encasing Su Xiao. He stood frozen in place, the silver-haired girl gripped by her throat, her feet off the ground.
[Prompt: You are enveloped by an unknown energy, stamina attribute determining...]
[Because the opponent’s skill has higher priority, determination fails, and you will undergo this control effect.]
[Due to Hunter’s high resistances, this control effect will be weakened by 80%.]
[You suffer a 0.4-second immobilization effect.]
Crack, crack.
The coral layer on Su Xiao’s body quickly shattered. The silver-haired girl, just narrowly escaping death, was terrified by this scene. She knew who the bullet ca from—it was her teammate, whose control ability she was well aware of. Hitting this bullet would normally immobilize soone for at least 2 to 5 seconds.
Seeing her teammate coming to aid, the silver-haired girl released her hold on the crystal pendant. This item was too precious to use unless absolutely necessary.
Crash!
The coral layer on Su Xiao’s arm shattered, and his hand gradually regained strength.
"Mad Drear: Mont Emperor."
Finally, the silver-haired girl had the opportunity to activate her life-saving big move, and everything within a three-ter radius around her began to slow down. The coral fragnts bursting from Su Xiao floated in midair, descending at an extrely slow pace.
After using this move, the girl’s body shrank rapidly, reverting to a seeming childlike state. This was the side effect of ’Mad Drear: Mont Emperor,’ causing irreversible age regression unless restored in Apocalypse Paradise, the cost of slowing ti, limited to a three-ter area.
In an instant, the silver-haired girl transford into a little girl. Fortunately, her physical attributes didn’t diminish, and because her body beca smaller, her neck beca slender enough to slip out of Su Xiao’s left hand.
The flow of ti resud. The coral layer on Su Xiao’s body crumbled inch by inch. He clenched his left hand but caught nothing.
Su Xiao paused, considering that this might be an escape skill of the enemy. Glancing around, he did not imdiately find the girl’s figure.
A sowhat familiar white dress appeared in his sight. Inside it was a little girl, her size mismatched with the dress, causing its hem to drag along the ground.
"Did she shrink?"
The enemy’s ability was peculiar, but Su Xiao paid no mind. He had encountered various kinds of enemies with spatial, temporal, and bloodline-related abilities, so the fact the enemy shrank was sothing he quickly accepted.
Su Xiao patted the spine of the Dragon Slash, causing the silver crystal encrusting it to shatter.
The modified Shave had entered its cooldown phase, forcing Su Xiao to pursue on foot. Though on foot, his speed far surpassed that of the silver-haired girl, whose short legs were sprinting desperately.
In the tribal army a kiloter away, two n and a woman were mingled among the Beastn. The woman had her eyes closed, her hands placed on the shoulders of the two n. She was the team’s perception specialist, able to transmit perceived images to her teammates.
One of the n held a sniper rifle, while the other was unard, each palm etched with an array.
