Chapter 270: The Distance Between Life and Death
It is inevitable that there will be omissions in the information gathered from the enemy's side, which can be regarded as a big loss for the two survivors of the assassination team.
Just like now, Meloni only knew that Li Qing had the ability to locate markers and move at high speeds, but she didn't know that his magic modified version of Tianyin Wave could actually remain in existence for a long time.
Therefore, when he threw the swallow out of the car in a panic before, he never imagined that the swallow that was thrown on the road would appear in such an important role again.
In the final analysis, Meloni has forgotten that her enemies, while possessing absolute power, do not lack the wisdom to deal with crises.
But now, it's too late.
Risut tried his best to win the chance of winning with his life and risked his life, and he collapsed unexpectedly.
The trap of iron and electricity was broken through by Li Qing in an instant.
His form was like a phantom, and it was bursting towards Meloni at an incredible speed.
Meloni had to be glad that the Celestial Sonic marker was imprinted on the swallow, not on himself.
Otherwise, he would have died like the poor swallow.
Meloni is not dead for the time being, but his mood is no different from that of a dead man:
"It's over... It's impossible to turn the tables around! β
Looking at Li Qing, who had already used the swallow as the target to rush in front of her, Meloni almost suffocated in despair.
Facing a strong enemy at hand, a chill surged all over his body.
He could almost foresee the terrible picture of Li Qing taking off his head after stabilizing his figure.
But...
Just when Meloni was already waiting to die, he was surprised to find:
After getting rid of the current and rushing in front of him, Li Qing did not attack as he feared.
On the contrary, the first thing Li Qing did after standing up was to move his hands and feet and relax his body - his movements at the moment were obviously a little stiff and sluggish, not at all as agile and fast as he had shown before.
Obviously, the negative effects of electric current seem to have a certain duration.
After getting rid of the direct contact with the electric current, the paralysis on Li Qing's body was not immediately lifted.
"It's... His body is still stiff, and he has not completely gotten rid of the sequelae of electric shocks! β
"Brother Risutβ"
"Let's do it now!"
It was as if she suddenly saw a drowning person in a lifeboat on the river, and Meloni yelled as hard as she could.
In fact, he didn't know how long the "sequelae of electric shock" on Li Qing's body would last, and he didn't know when the paralysis on Li Qing's body would be completely lifted.
A second, a second, or just a moment?
If this answer is a fraction of a second, the result will be the difference between life and death.
But Meloni knew that whatever the answer, it was his and Risut's last chance.
So he tried his best to remind Lisute, wanting Risute to seize the precious opportunity when Li Qing was suffering from the sequelae of the electric shock.
Once again, the burden of deciding victory or defeat rested on Risut's shoulders.
At this moment, time seems to freeze.
"Last chance..."
Risut observed the environment at a rapid pace in silence:
Because of her subconscious reluctance to leave Risut and flee for her life alone, Meloni had not been able to make that difficult decision during the short battle that had lasted less than half a minute.
Moreover, although he didn't even feel it himself, deep down in his heart, he actually had a faint expectation for Risut.
After all, it was Risutnero, the leader of the assassination team, and the most trusted and reliable big brother of his companions.
Therefore, in the face of Li Qing's huge threat, Meloni has always been nervous, uneasy, and panicked, but she firmly stood by Lisute's side.
Now, half a minute later, Meloni was standing not too far from Risut, and the distance from the lamppost was quite close.
Other words...
Just now, Li Qing was about five or six meters away from the street lamp, and used the echo to escape to Meloni's side, a position about ten meters away from the street lamp.
And now, Li Qing seems to be still plagued by the sequelae of electric shock, and his body is still a little sluggish and paralyzed.
If, God willing, this negative state in him can last long enough, Risut still has a chance of victory:
"Take advantage of the fact that the wire is stretched and towed over..."
"I still have a chance to electrocute Li Qing again!"
In the flash of lightning, this thought flashed through Risut's mind:
Now the distance between Li Qing and the street lamp is close to 14 meters.
And the iron wire that was made by depleting the iron in Li Qing's body could only be extended to 6 meters.
Materials are limited, and this is the maximum length that Risut can make from that human servings of iron.
So, since there is no way to extend this wire, how can he let it touch Li Qing, who is already 14 meters away?
There is only one way, and that is to add new iron and consume more raw materials.
However, this ingredient doesn't seem to be so easy to find:
There is no fine iron sand on the bridge that can be used for metal products, only heavy pieces of steel such as cars, guardrails, and street lights.
Of course, Risut couldn't manipulate these bulky iron lumps, otherwise his stand-in wouldn't have been called Metalwork, but Magneto.
In other words, he has fallen into a sad situation where "there is iron everywhere but no iron is available".
So, the only iron that can still be used now...
"It's on me!"
Almost instantly, Risut made a decision.
He burst out with the fastest speed and launched a decisive charge towards Li Qing, who fled not far away.
At the same time, the capabilities of metal products are quietly activated.
A small hole was suddenly cut in Risut's ankle from the inside out, and from the flesh behind the small hole, a thin wire extended.
The wire was constantly consuming the iron in Risut's body, and as Risut ran, it was rapidly stretching and lengthening backwards.
"Boss Risut!"
Meloni cried out in shock.
How could he not see that Lisute wanted to exhaust the iron in his body and die with Li Qing.
"With myβ"
"I have iron in my body, too!"
In this almost still time, Meloni seemed to have forgotten her fears.
He instinctively shouted such words, he did not want to see Risut die of exhaustion of his iron.
But Risut didn't pay any attention to it.
Because he knew in his heart that neither he nor Meloni were monsters like Li Qing.
Even if a normal human body loses only 1 meter of iron wire, although it will not die, it will definitely cause a significant decline in body function due to lack of iron.
Now Li Qing's distance from the street lamp is about 13 or 14 meters, and the original iron wire is only 6 meters, and the length gap of the iron wire is as much as 7 or 8 meters.
Even if such a large demand for iron powder is evenly spread over two people, even if these two people do not die on the spot, they will definitely be overwhelmed.
And now Li Qing's companions are about to chase here, which is an almost foreseeable fact.
If both of them are incapacitated after the battle due to lack of iron, then all they can do is wait here to die.
Such an approach is clearly pointless.
Rather than dragging both of them into the Jedi of death, it would be better to let only one person bear such a heavy fate.
So, Risut simply ignored Meloni's cries.
He desperately charged towards Li Qing at the greatest speed, and he was also frantically squeezing the iron in his body with the greatest strength.
The thin wire continued to grow and extend from Risut's body, and under the influence of the magnetic force, it pointed straight at the street lamp behind him.
That's it...
Risut soon squeezed his life to the limit.
He quickly rushed to a place less than two meters away from Li Qing, and the wire behind him had already extended a distance of 6 meters.
Risute used all of his iron to make a 6-meter-long iron wire, plus the 6-meter iron wire he had previously made with Li Qing's iron, and the length needed to direct the current to Li Qing's body was less than 2 meters.
But this vacancy of less than 2 meters seems to be the distance that determines life and death.
At this time, the iron in Risut's body had also been depleted.
Meloni, on the other hand, looked at Risut with his indescribable gaze, as if to say:
"With mine - with the iron in my body!"
"Even if it's just the last two meters... Please let me do my part! β
"No, Meloni."
"This last void doesn't need you to fill yet."
Risut only returned Meloni's meaningful whisper.
He knew that after the iron in his body had been completely drained, he was already a living dead who was certain to die.
No one survived this near-zero iron content, and his body would soon collapse with his physiology completely shut down.
In that case, it might as well be done more thoroughly.
This heavy death should be borne by him alone.
"Live well, Meloni!"
Risute jumped forward, reaching out to Li Qing with all his might.
The iron has been depleted.
Therefore, it can only be his own body that fills the last two meters of distance.
And Li Qing still seems to be bothered by the so-called sequelae of electric shock.
In the face of such a swift and decisive charge of Risut, his ears twitched slightly, and he didn't know what he was listening to, but his body remained stiff and did not dodge.
Even, I don't know if it's because Li Qing didn't realize what Lisut was doing at all...
Seeing that Risut was launching such a terrible suicide attack towards him, he not only did not try to dodge, but "subconsciously" reached forward and gently blocked it.
This time it happened to slap Risut's hand.
Li Qing and Lisute's bodies came into contact like this.
And behind Risut ...
Two extremely slender wires were linked together in mid-air.
With the last of Risut's will, the electricity flowed like a flood.
Electric flashes.
This is the end of Risut's life.
