The terrible thing about the ability to manipulate time is that no matter what you want to do, it doesn't give you time to do it.

As a result, there is almost only one way to win.

That is, the sword goes off the rails and wins by surprise.

Jaeger touched his abdomen, which had completely healed itself, and pointed his staff at Sakiya's head with his other hand. Sakiya couldn't feel the flow of magic on that staff, not because Jaeg hid it well, but because she didn't have that talent at all. Therefore, she had no idea if Jaeger was preparing his spell, and if in the next second, a transparent barrier would split her body in two. All she could rely on was her intuition.

She can only stop for a few seconds, after which she will enter a brief period of fatigue, unable to activate her abilities continuously. Considering the speed of Jaeger's shot, Sakiya actually has one and only one chance. She needed to catch Jaeger just in time to start accumulating her magic and not be able to release it, not too soon, not too late. If it is too early, it will catch her fatigue and kill her with one move, and if it is too late, she will lose the opportunity.

Now, the instincts she's relied on for years tell her that the time hasn't come yet. Strangely enough, it had been a while since Jaeger had been fully reborn, and the fellow was still standing motionless, with a calm and calm demeanor, so that one could not see through the medicine sold in his gourd. Sakiya doesn't have the ability to read minds, she can't read her opponent's thoughts, and the only thing she can be sure of is that the time hasn't come yet.

"Oh, you're waiting for me. Suddenly, she heard Jaeger say, "That's embarrassing. ”

"I shouldn't have kept the lady waiting so long. ”

The next second after saying this, Jaeger had already come to her, and with the tip of his staff, he stabbed Sakuya in the eye.

Zero-range physical attack, that's probably why, Sakiya's instinct never told her to use time stop to interrupt the timing of the spell, after all, the opponent didn't intend to use magic from the beginning.

If you want to talk about accidents, there is still a little bit of surprise, not because of how difficult this trick is, but because, Sakiya really didn't expect that Jaeger would use such a stupid method to break the deadlock. She even vaguely suspected that the other party still had a back hand.

When the staff was closest to her eyes, there was only half a centimeter between them. Then, Sakiya turned her head and dodged the non-threatening blow.

"You've been fooled. ”

She heard Jaeger whisper softly. For a moment, her heart beat faster.

Jaeger's hand holding the staff stopped behind her shoulder, then let go, letting the staff fly to the transparent wall not far away. Immediately after, the staff ...... And didn't hit the wall and then fell. A small opening suddenly opened in the wall, and the staff was directly sucked out by the huge air pressure difference and flew into the universe.

The air in the cubicle was agitated for a moment, blowing Sakiya's hair, and no matter how calm she was, she had to admit that this situation was not what she expected.

"Thank you so much for making me realize that using magic in front of you will only get caught. Jaeger said.

"So, all I can use is pure physical arts, and only in the brain, the mind and the will. As it turns out, I can accomplish a lot with these two things alone. ”

"Because, you know, manipulating a spell that has already been formed, in fact, does not need to be cast again. As long as you still have control of it, you just need to do it with a little bit of brain. ”

"Of course, there's no point in me explaining this to you, because you're going to die. ”

Jaeger took a step back, and in the next moment, a spatial barrier rose in front of him, completely isolating him from Sakiya. Sakiya turned around and saw that the staff floating in the universe was now aimed at her.

"Didn't I say it, professional magicians, use professional-grade tools. First, it can store a large amount of mana, and second, it can leave its owner and cast spells automatically when necessary. ”

"Even I, without the warm atmosphere and exposed to the vacuum of the universe, can't hold on for even a second. Although it will not die immediately, it will still be frozen into an ice sculpture as hard as stone, forcibly stop all bodily functions, and then begin a long and painful cosmic drift. However, my staff, lifeless, will be able to fulfill its mission perfectly, even if it is thrown into the universe. ”

"And no matter what it does, you who can't get out of here will never be able to interfere. ”

I didn't hear a word of the above words. Through a transparent barrier that was completely soundproofed, she could only see Jaeger's mouth moving with a smug expression, and she didn't know what he was saying. Even so, she could guess the content of the last sentence he said.

For as he spoke, he raised his hand and waved it twice at her, and by this action she judged that the content of the sentence must be:

"Farewell, Sakiya. ”

Immediately after, the next moment after he said this, Sakiya's body lost its balance.

She didn't fall, she just lost the gravity that kept her standing posture and the barrier under her feet. She could feel that the air around her was rapidly dissipating, her blood boiling under the effect of low air pressure, and the alveoli in her chest were bursting due to the difference between the inside and outside air pressure.

At that moment, she realized Jaeger's tactics.

The feint attack with physical art is to find an opportunity to throw the staff into space, and the staff is thrown into space so that he can cast spells unhindered, so as to create a barrier between the two, and separate this small compartment twice, on the one hand, he trapped Sakuya, who has no ability to break the wall, and on the other hand, when he cleared the outer wall on Sakuya's side and threw her into space like garbage, he himself would not be affected in any way. He could sit leisurely, in this transparent fortress floating in nothingness, and watch his enemies suffocate to death in the cold and vacuum of hell - what a pleasure.

The entire tactical chain, one link after another, finally put the sixteen nights of Sakiya into it. She is now only one step away from death.

And her chance, there is still one time left.

“The...... World！”

The blood in her body no longer boiled, the deadly bubbles no longer burst her blood vessels, the air in her lungs no longer ruptured her trachea and alveoli, and the air around her no longer continued to escape.

Because time stopped.

This time time stood still, and she could only last for three seconds, much shorter than her average, but her dying body didn't allow her to do any better.

She didn't have the means to break through the spatial barrier, which meant that it was unlikely that she would be able to force her way back into the chamber that Jaeger had created—the only place where air existed within a radius of dozens of light-years.

There is no way to fly back to Earth, there is no way, all she can manipulate is time, and her so-called teleportation is not the kind of Jeeger, which directly teleports to any point in space, but a short distance in still time, the kind of teleportation. The distance she can "teleport" over is entirely dependent on the strength of her feet, and her feet obviously can't take her back to her home planet.

So, even if time stops, Sakiya is actually the end of the road. These three seconds will probably become the last three seconds of her life.

A second passed, and she turned, adjusting her posture and perspective.

Two seconds passed, and she looked at the nebula in the distance.

Three seconds elapse ......

"The starry sky is beautiful...... Even in this long sleep, it is not bad. ”

Then time begins to flow again.

"Buzz!"

The hot plasma streaked through the air, making a muffled sound that made the eardrums tremble, and Jaeger's body immediately split in half.
