The future is advancing according to the established route.

In the first second, the Scarlet King slashed his knife, and Li Qing slowed it down with "Heavenly Thunder Break" and "Breaking Muscles and Bones".

In the second second, Li Qing lifted the data mode, took advantage of the Crimson King's deceleration state to adjust his posture, and let his right shoulder meet the Crimson King's hand knife.

In the third second, the hand knife slashed his shoulder and cut off Li Qing's right arm.

In the fourth second, Li Qing broke his arm to survive and rolled outward.

In the fifth second, the Crimson King adjusted his body and pursued Li Qing.

The sixth second...

Facing the crimson king who rushed towards him, Li Qing withstood the pain of his broken arm and faced forward with his right shoulder, which was still surging blood outward.

The digital mode was restarted, and the blood surging on his right shoulder stopped instantly.

At this time, the Scarlet King was rushing towards him without warning.

"It's now!"

There was no fear in Li Qing's eyes, only a strong fighting spirit condensed in tension:

"This is the strongest blow I have ever mastered, the strongest spear that can break everything!"

The most powerful attack at his disposal was not actually a system skill, but a strange trait that he had discovered by accident from the "off" and "on" of the data-based body.

The first time Li Qing lifted the data mode to fight with his body, he still had to make a choice in order to escape when facing that piece of immortal flesh.

At that time, his body was almost all white bones left under the gnawing of the flesh, and his forearm and right hand were bent backwards at an angle of 270 degrees.

However, at the moment of the digital restart...

The flesh that had been gnawed off his body recovered instantly, and the 270-degree bent arm twisted forward in an instant.

Even if it was bound by a piece of flesh, it couldn't stop the arm from twisting forward.

Li Qing's strength at that time was far inferior to that of a piece of meat.

However, in order to restore his body to a perfect state, his severed arm unexpectedly burst out with an unprecedented power after the data mode was turned on, and he easily broke free from the entanglement of the flesh.

Since then, Li Qing has been thinking:

Since the digitized mode will ensure that his body is always in perfect condition like the in-game 3D model that never gets crippled, then...

If only before the digitization began, his arm was not just bent, but cut off by Zigan...

What will happen?

Can the arm recover?

Can that inexplicable power erupt in the air?

Although curious, Li Qing himself did not dare to try - if the data could not repair the arm that was separated from the body, then he would have to be disabled for life.

Later, however, he met Giorno.

The golden experience of the ability to easily help people repair wounds and renew their bodies gave Li Qing unlimited "self-harm" capital.

After discovering that his teammate was a powerful wet nurse, he did not hesitate to cut off his arm with a knife, verifying the idea he had been curious about for a long time.

And the results of this trial were...

"It will be restored!"

"Even if my arm is cut off by Qi Gen, my body will instantly return to its perfect state after turning on data."

"Moreover, it's not a broken limb that is reborn, it's a 'broken arm reconnected'—"

"My broken arm is like Thor's hammer, and it will fly back to my body as soon as the data is turned on!"

Looking at the crimson king rushing towards him in front of him, Li Qing couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement in his heart:

Diablo seemed unprepared for his true purpose, and the Scarlet King stood straight between himself and the severed arm.

And the broken arm has sensed the opening of the data mode:

It rose from the ground in an instant, and flew straight towards Li Qing's body with an unstoppable momentum.

It's so fast, it's like a phantom.

Its power is enormous, big enough to penetrate all obstacles.

At this moment, it is not so much a severed arm that wants to return to its master, but an indestructible flying sword.

This is exactly the bug caused by the system rules:

Li Qing in the digital mode must have an intact body.

Nothing, no power could stop his body from recovering, and nothing could stop the arm that was flying towards his body!

Everything that stood in the way of the severed arm would be easily pierced by it like tissue paper.

"It worked!"

The previous broken arm survival was just a trick, which was the most critical part of Li Qing's escape plan.

As long as the severed arm that flew back to his body could hurt the Crimson King, even if it was just a little, it would create time for him to escape with the celestial sound waves.

However...

What Li Qing didn't notice at all, and couldn't possibly notice, was...

When his broken arm took off with the data restart, Diablo had already launched a counterattack:

"It's now..."

Diablo's eyes flashed with a bright light at the same time as Li Qing:

"Time will begin to inscribe again—"

"The Crimson King!"

The supernatural ability of "Time Slash" is activated, and Diablo and his double become independent of the timeline.

And Li Qing...

He didn't even realize that the timeline was already changing.

He was still stuck in the erased time, making beautiful and useless fantasies about the Crimson King in front of him, who didn't actually exist.

And just like that, the future was changed.

Time was moving according to Diablo's thoughts.

Sixth second:

Li Qing restarted the data, and the broken arm turned into a "flying sword".

Diablo opens and slashes, and the Crimson King escapes into the Void.

The seventh second:

The severed arm passed through the Crimson King's torso, piercing its chest.

But the Crimson King, who had already entered the state of time slashing, was not affected at all.

Soon, the broken arm flew to Li Qing's body and went back in an instant.

The Scarlet King, on the other hand, took a step forward unhurriedly and stayed in a special position according to Diablo's instructions.

Eighth second:

Li Qing didn't realize that his attack was ineffective at all.

Stuck in the erased time, he was still blasting a celestial sound wave into the distance, just as Diablo had seen the future before.

"Time cuts off, lifts!"

Diablo was promptly relieved of the ability.

It took only two seconds to be deleted, but those two seconds changed everything:

First of all, the "flying sword" attack, which was enough to kill Diablo, did not work.

Secondly, the Crimson King had already adjusted his position and stood on the trajectory of Li Qingtian's sound wave just right.

And in Li Qing's perception...

He was only stunned for a moment, and his consciousness jumped from the "data-based restart" two seconds ago to the current "Tianyin wave emission".

"Something is wrong!"

"It's a 'time cut'!"

Looking at his right arm, which had recovered somehow, and the celestial sound wave that had come out of his hand, Li Qing felt that bone-chilling chill almost instantly.

And in the next instant, the celestial sound wave hit the Crimson King's body solidly.

Positioning markers appear on the Scarlet King's musche arm, and all hope of escape is instantly extinguished.

"Was... Blocked? ”

Li Qing's face became extremely ugly:

"How is it possible, why!"

"Why did Diablo notice my severed arm attack during the data restart, and why did he launch the slash so well?"

"I can recall the ability to recall, the broken arm has only just been discovered for less than an hour, how could he be vigilant in advance?"

No matter how smart and cautious a person is, it is impossible for him to guard against a severed arm.

But Diablo was like an unpredictable prophet, and launched a time cut at the most critical moment of Li Qing's counterattack.

Is it accidental, or is it inevitable?

An unprecedented panic came to mind:

"Could this guy..."

"What are the powers of the 'prophet of the unknown'?"

Li Qing, who had always thought that the Crimson King's ability was only Shi Xiao, finally vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

However, it is too late to say anything.

The Sky Sound Wave, which can only be used once in seven seconds, has been wasted on the Crimson King.

And Diablo is obviously on guard against his hidden ability, and there is absolutely no way that he can hurt the other party with a sneak attack with a broken arm.

"Hahahaha..."

Looking at Li Qing, whose face was like ashes, Diablo couldn't help laughing wildly.

The fear and depression that arose after encountering the Rolling Stone were all vividly vented at this moment:

"I'm not dead, I'm still alive!"

"The so-called fate has been given to me Diablo... Penetrate! Bottom! Change! Change! ”
