Chapter 38: Go for a fight
"Didi!"
"Didi!"
The prompt sound of the urgent communication access application suddenly sounded from the micro headset in the left ear, and Si Xingfeng hurriedly looked at the screen of his tactical watch.
As a precious portable personal terminal device, this tactical watch that is standard in the War College is also the most valuable item on Si Xingfeng's body at present.
Of course, its functions are far more complex and comprehensive than other watches that have been used by the company before.
Clicking on the screen, Si Xingfeng was a little surprised, the communication application actually came from a person he never expected, Su Zibu, a photoelectric walker.
"Senior Su, hello!"
"Si Xingfeng, huh? The width of the brain domain reaches more than S, the gene lock is heavy, and the ability of the photoelectric domain is awakened? Su Zibu's voice was very feminine, and there was a casual casualness in his mood.
"Yes, it's me." Si Xingfeng answered honestly.
"Yes, but I'm more interested in your fighting talent." Although there was only one person in his team, Su Zibu did not try his best to win over Si Xingfeng like others.
"Combat talent?"
"So, you're in the banquet hall now, right?" Su Zibu ignored Si Xingfeng's doubts, "Just find someone who doesn't like your eyes and go to fight!" ”
"That's not good, is it?" Si Xingfeng was a little stunned, he didn't expect this photoelectric walker's personality to be so ...... Grumpy direct!
"Then forget it, if it weren't for your good strength, I wouldn't be too lazy to bring a rookie!" After speaking, Su Zibu immediately cut off the call.
For more than ten years, it was the first time for Si Xingfeng to come into contact with such a cool person, which was also a great impact on him with his forbearant and stable personality.
Stunned, Si Xingfeng sent a communication request to the other party with his backhand.
However, the blood-red text on the screen immediately struck him again, and the other party actually refused all the strangers' communication requests.
This is actually a guy who is very similar to Ning Liuli's father, the maverick Ning Yuanyuan.
Si Xingfeng was unwilling, and applied to add the other party to his address book.
After all, as long as he still wanted to learn how to use the magical power of the Optoelectronic Domain, this was his only candidate at the moment, and Si Xingfeng couldn't just give up no matter what.
After waiting for about two minutes, seeing that the other party still had no response, Si Xingfeng was a little anxious.
He suddenly realized that there seemed to be something wrong with his mentality lately.
Even if he is barely a leader among his peers, and even some seniors are willing to hold some of themselves, but in the eyes of people who are also talented and accomplished, he is actually just a yellow-haired boy.
Fortunately, the application interface can be used to enter information, and Si Xingfeng simply sent two words, "I'll play!" He strode directly to the ring in the center of the banquet hall.
Gladiatorial fighting in the ring can be big or small, Si Xingfeng knew that there was no need to provoke others for no reason, so he picked up the Xue Yidao who had spoken disrespectfully to him and teased Gu Qingqing before.
Don't look at Xue Yidao's shivering, he does have his own proud capital, not to mention his brother, even his own talent is also excellent.
A fifteen-year-old eighth-order fifth-rank intermediate thief, let alone in the freshmen, many old students may not be as strong as him.
It's just that the upper limit of the transcendent profession of the thief is only the fourth rank, and if he wants to go further, he can only find a way to find a breakthrough by himself.
So he chose a high-level soul hunter as his guide, and the purpose was to try to combine the two professions and continue his extraordinary career path.
However, the soul hunter unexpectedly rejected his application, and the reason was simple, the other party was not optimistic that he had this ability.
Xue Yidao, who was already a little depressed, was browsing the information at this time, looking for the next guide who could help him, but he didn't expect that a challenge application was directly transmitted to his personal terminal watch.
Coincidentally, Xue Yidao, who was already in an irritable mood and didn't want to pay attention to this news, didn't know why, but the ghost almost clicked on this challenge application.
And after seeing that the challenger was actually the little white face who had been ridiculed by himself before, this guy also showed a cruel and vicious smile.
Xue Yidao knew that his appearance was not very attractive, although the tradition of the Far Eastern Fortress did not care so much about appearance, but he still had some inferiority, so he also hated a handsome man like Si Xingfeng.
Seeing that Si Xingfeng came to the door by himself, Xue Yidao did not rush to accept the application, but changed the ordinary competitive challenge to a life-and-death challenge and passed it back to him.
His meaning is very simple, it's okay to fight, but it's not interesting to compete, it's better to let go of your hands and feet to fight, life or death!
Si Xingfeng's eyebrows furrowed slightly, he actually didn't understand that he had always disliked to cause trouble and avoid disputes with others, so why he still got into trouble for no reason.
A few years ago, there was a Zhao Mingyang, and now there is a Xue Yidao, who inexplicably killed himself, and I don't know why these guys are so hostile to themselves!
Originally, with Si Xingfeng's character, he would definitely choose to endure it again. He's alone, but his opponent isn't.
Xiao Cong has been transmitting a concept to Si Xingfeng since he was a child, which has had a great impact on him.
If you can't cut the grass and eradicate the roots, then it is better to protect yourself, secretly accumulate strength, and stay for a while.
But now the situation is a little unacceptable for him to back down, and refusing it means that he has to give up studying with Su Zibu.
There was also an even bigger problem, besides Su Zibu, he didn't know if he could meet another person who was proficient in the power of the Optoelectronic Domain.
In fact, in all fairness, Si Xingfeng also felt that his previous self was indeed a little too cowardly.
But if it weren't for the fact that there were still a lot of things to do, how could he not be willing to be young and happy.
After hesitating for about two or three seconds, Si Xingfeng finally made up his mind, pressed the confirmation button with a resolute face, and reached this life-and-death battle with the other party.
The sudden gladiatorial battle also attracted the attention of all the students who had not yet dispersed.
Everyone in the fortress is extremely martial, and if it were not for the extremely strict management system and extremely terrible punishments, the various disputes that arise in the fortress every day do not know how much turmoil they will cause.
Therefore, gladiatorial fighting, as the only mode of internal combat officially approved by the military, is extremely attractive no matter when and where.
Even Ning Liuli and the others were a little surprised, Si Xingfeng suddenly started a life-and-death struggle with others, and they all looked at him with some worry.
There was no restriction on the use of any equipment in the ring, so Ning Liuli also threw his Yan Prison Captain's Sword to him.
When Xue Yidao also came to Si Xingfeng, the ring automatically formed a huge spherical transparent protective cover on the periphery, completely isolating the two from the others.
This is an intelligent protective weapon specially designed and gradually improved by the scientific research institute of the academy with years of experience, called Tianluo, which is not only used in the banquet hall, but also suitable for protecting many strategic materials and equipment of the fortress army.
Don't underestimate Tianluo's seemingly weak protective shield, which is formed by a beam of energy that is highly compressed into a steady state, and can even withstand the huge energy impact caused by the explosion of a small nuclear bomb without damage.
Seeing that the beams of energy rising around him gradually converged and formed a protective shield like a substance, Si Xingfeng and Xue Yidao stood opposite each other, and drew out their weapons one after another.
Si Xingfeng is naturally holding Ning Liuli's Yan Prison Captain's sword, the body of the Yan Prison Sword is slender, and it is embossed with retro and gorgeous ornaments, which is extremely suitable for sword dancers who take the dexterous stabbing route.
But this sword was a little thin in Si Xingfeng's hand, which actually made him look a little delicate when he was upright.
On the other hand, Xue Yidao, who was wearing a set of black tight-fitting combat uniforms, showed disdain.
I saw that his hands trembled slightly, and two alloy chisels that were equally slender and had a dark matte color on the surface held him in his palms.
The Soul Hunter also approaches the style of assassination. With its unpredictable speed and strange weaponry, a high-level soul hunter can even quickly approach and briefly confuse enemies in a matter of seconds, plunging their long chisel into their throat or heart.
This is the strength of the Soul Hunter, but it is also its limitation. If they lose their weapon, it will be difficult for a Soul Hunter with only a speed advantage to deal effective damage to enemies.
Even when facing an opponent with strong protection, even if the soul hunter can successfully make the opponent fall into a state of self-confusion of "ecstasy", their hunting methods cannot even break the opponent's defense, so that they cannot successfully hunt souls.
Si Xingfeng's cautious habit makes him never underestimate any opponent when he faces them. Any transcendent profession has its own unique means, and any transcendent person may possess terrifying abilities that science cannot parse for the time being.
Holding the sword in his backhand, Si Xingfeng quickly attacked the other party first, although he was tall, but thanks to his strong physical talent and the various increases brought by the unlocking of the gene lock, his body was like electricity, and he actually left four afterimages on the side of Xue Yidao's body.
Xue Yidao was suddenly shocked, he was not a fool, and he had already found out that Si Xingfeng was unknown in Dongting Academy, and he was the last among all the students all the year round.
In his opinion, this little white face is nothing more than a good-looking looker, and he has become a coordinator like shit luck, and he simply relied on his companions all the way to get into the War College.
But at this moment, the speed shown by Si Xingfeng is even faster than himself!
Thinking of the student he asked earlier, he contemptuously evaluated this guy as "the coordinator of waste." Xue Yidao couldn't help but secretly complain.
"A person who has been the penultimate all year round has this kind of strength? If it weren't for this guy pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, could it be that your Dongting Academy would have been strong enough to do this? ”
Although he was a little flustered, Xue Yidao reacted quickly, this is a battle of life and death, he can't be carelessly distracted, not to mention, the opponent is even stronger than himself.
Waving the long chisel in his hand, firmly protecting his vital point, Xue Yidao carefully thought about countermeasures.
Not only was the speed that he was proud of suppressed by the other party, but in terms of strength, he also knew that he was also not dominant, and he barely bumped the long sword in Si Xingfeng's hand a few times, and he was now numb in his arms and his wrists were sore.
Fortunately, there is still a killer weapon, Xue Yidao comforted himself, and secretly urged the strange weapon in his hand.
Si Xingfeng was not complacent just because he completely suppressed the other party.
He knew very well that since Xue Yidao was a soul hunter profession, he must be different from the shadow martial artist Liang Heng he was familiar with.
It's just that after being cautious, he didn't notice that the layer of black matte coating on the surface of the alloy long chisel in Xue Yidao's hand was actually slowly dissolving, gradually forming an extremely light hazy black mist around his head.
Suddenly, Xue Yidao quickly dodged and rolled behind Si Xingfeng.
At the same time, the hazy black mist entered his body along Si Xingfeng's nostrils and rushed straight to his brain.
