The battle in the "Isolation Layer" continues.

After suffering a loss, Karl gave up the method of exposing his whole body, and he continued to "sneak" into the alloy pillar and the inside of the ground, and only leaned out part of his body in a short moment at a time to surprise Uncle Xue from various angles.

Due to the all-round gap in speed, strength, and energy, Uncle Xue was basically dodging and escaping the whole time, even if he threw the "plasma ant mine" to counterattack, it could not cause any fatal damage to Carl.

The gap between the strong and the fierce level is so cold......

Uncle Xue is undoubtedly a very powerful person, but this "strength" mainly comes from his ability itself; In terms of talent for cultivation and development ability, he can only be regarded as ordinary.

Moreover, the reason why Uncle Xue was able to train such a high-level ability of "going back to time" to a strong level was not because of his high qualifications, but because of ...... He used it too much.

As the saying goes, "diligence can make up for clumsiness", this is at least feasible among those who are capable below the "strong level".

Theoretically speaking, any capable person, as long as he is willing to work hard, can practice to a strong level; But this sentence is like "anyone with a lower IQ than average can get into college as long as they work hard"...... Between theory and reality, there is a battlefield called "objective factors", on which the two generals, "lazy" and "diligent", fight day and night, and most of the time the generals will return home.

However, Uncle Xue's situation is different from ordinary people.

For him, the "objective factors" in front of him are basically - if you want to save people, you must reduce your life expectancy and look back on time; And the more times you go back, it naturally becomes a kind of "diligent" cultivation.

Of course, you can also say, "He can not save people."

It's a matter of personal choice......

Uncle Xue has gone through many trials and tribulations in his life, and in the end he still chose to become a "comparative" selfless person - the word "comparative" is added here because his approach obviously does not meet the normative requirements of those moral kidnappers with double standards.

Although Uncle Xue has long given up the idea of "saving everyone", although he will not easily give up his life for others, what he is going to do now is ...... It is already a path that most people will not take.

In fact, Uncle Xue can use his ability to live a life of fine clothes and food within the scope of the law, and escape any danger that will make him die, but he chose to avoid using his abilities for his own personal gain as much as possible, he would rather wander the streets, live a poor life, and do things that will not only not be appreciated, but also cause misunderstanding and even hostility, just because...... That's what he thinks is right.

Man lives in the world, but that's all he has.

Some people feel that earning wealth and making life better for themselves and their families is the right thing to do. Some people feel that it is right to increase their knowledge and use what they have learned to promote the progress and development of society. There are also people who feel that they should spare no effort to be self-satisfied once they have traveled in the next world...... There's nothing wrong with that.

Everyone has different standards, and even if most people's standards overlap, it cannot be said that this is vulgar.

It is natural to choose to do what you think is right and pay the price accordingly; Compromise, concede, and slowly change their standards because of the huge cost...... This is vulgarity, weakness, and ...... We.

Uncle Xue has been walking on a road that we once had the opportunity to walk, but in the end only a few people can stick to it.

The price he paid was far more than just his lifespan, but his entire life.

But as long as he can do what he thinks is right, he feels that it is worthwhile, and even if he is ridiculed and despised by the laity, he has no regrets.

"You're almost at the bottom of your physical strength, right?"

About seven minutes after the grudge began, Carl spoke again.

During that time, he "shut up" for a long time as Uncle Xue requested, and only focused on attacking; At this time, because he felt Uncle Xue's fatigue, he started language negotiations again.

"Your ability is indeed very tricky, and those who change to ordinary fierce abilities may really be killed by you......" Karl saw that Uncle Xue didn't answer, so he continued, "But I ...... Happens to be the type you can't kill. He paused, "You can't end the fight if you can't kill me...... And this kind of deathmatch, which cannot be escaped or won, will inevitably evolve into the current war of attrition in the end; No one can maintain concentration and fitness for a long time in a confrontation with me, and you and I know very well the end when you show a flaw, or when you are exhausted...... It's your time of death. ”

His analysis makes sense, but these ...... Uncle Xue already knew.

Karl's abilities are well documented in the Reverse Cross material: he can transform his body into a state similar to a "multidimensional spatial projection", using metal-like materials as a medium, lurking and moving in it, and merging his sense of touch with a certain range of mediums.

The reason why he is called the "Hive Demon" is because a place like the Nine Prisons, which is basically made entirely of alloy, is like a huge "lair" to him...... Carl can move and manifest at great speed, and as long as his body is not "100%" off the ground or walls, he cannot be completely killed...... For example, just now, even if he was shot in the head by Uncle Xue with a gun, Carl was fine, because at that time, part of the soles of his feet were still buried in the ground and did not come out, as long as this 1% of his body was still in the "medium", his entire body could be reorganized.

Sum up...... The real horror of Carl von Belle is precisely the ability to "war of attrition".

Among those who have been to this place in the past, there are not many people who can dodge Karl's sneak attack with simple physical skills and reflexes, but ...... These people were all buried here without exception.

It may not be difficult to dodge a sneak attack, but in a long battle, facing a sudden attack from all sides by an opponent who is almost impossible to destroy, the consumption of concentration and physical strength is so staggering that almost no one can survive ten minutes......

This alloy pillar of isolation can be said to be the perfect home for Carl, who is like a spider entrenched here, using an invisible web to devour every prey that falls into it.

"Then, your next sentence should be ......," Uncle Xue continued, "'I think your ability is quite special, if you are willing to surrender and cooperate with the Federation, I can help you intercede and keep you from dying', right?'" ”

"Hehe......" Karl immediately laughed when he heard this, "you saw this with your ability to predict the future, right?" Then I won't deny it, how? Those who know the times are Junjie......"

"Are you stupid?" Uncle Xue didn't wait for him to finish before he interrupted, "A person who can predict the future, if he wants to join the Federation, why not use other forms?" Do you have to come here and surrender? He paused for half a second, "And ...... Why would a person who can predict the future choose an opponent who he can't win? Looking for death? ”

The smile on Karl's face still didn't disappear: "Stop bluffing, in the battle just now...... I've long seen through it, you can only predict a very short future, so these two examples you said don't hold true at all! ”

"I'll correct you with two ......," Uncle Xue said, "First, it's not that you 'see through' that I can only predict a very short future, but that I deliberately 'make you think' that I can only predict a very short future...... Nor is it a prediction of the future at all. ”

"Hmph...... It's useless to have a hard mouth. "You're already at the end of your crossbow anyway, and when I hit your 'can't dodge even if I predict it,' it'll be over." ”

Hearing this, Uncle Xue was expressionless, and after taking a long breath, he replied: "I'm afraid you won't be able to wait for that time." ”

As he spoke, Uncle Xue took out something that looked like a remote control key from his open pocket.

"What? You don't think you're trying to blow yourself up, are you? Carl didn't panic about this at all, "Let me put it this way, unless you have a nuclear bomb hidden under your trench coat...... ......Uh, uh

He couldn't finish his sentence......

At this moment, Uncle Xue completely ignored Carl's words, and pressed the remote control in his hand very neatly.

The moment the switch was activated, all the plasma ant thunders that had been scattered by Uncle Xue in the previous battle actually started to generate electricity again.

"Your ability has obviously caused an irreversible negative impact on your body...... at this time, Uncle Xue leisurely continued, "I found out when I hit you in the face with my fist...... It has nothing to do with energy protection, your skin feels almost numb when you touch things......" he said, he had already put the remote control back into his pocket, and Carl was constantly electrocuted, unable to answer at all, "When you activate the ability, the sensation of connecting to the 'medium' overrides your normal perception, so in this dim environment, you are never aware of it...... Changes in the surrounding environment. ”

The "change" that Uncle Xue refers to is the fact that "the river has flooded their ankles".

Since the area they were in was not very far from the mouth of the rig, after this period of fighting, the river water pouring in from the mouth had gradually spread.

If you were an ordinary person, you would have realized that your shoes were wet, but Karl, who relied on "environmental touch" to fight, didn't notice this......

The sensations transmitted through the medium are naturally very rough and blunt, and the perception of temperature is almost zero...... Otherwise, if someone nearby pokes the wall with a sharp object a few times while Carl is lurking in the wall, he will die of pain.

Moving through the medium "floating" without the sound of water or getting wet, just like ...... People who use the wall-piercing ability don't rub into the paint painted on the wall.

Plus...... At the moment, the only source of light here is the lighting brooch on Uncle Xue's body, which can only illuminate a small area in front of him, so Carl also visually ignores the river.

"All of these plasma ant mines that I have sown one after another are energy storage types; In water, they can produce dozens of times more utility with only a tiny amount of electricity. Uncle Xue said, "You shouldn't have noticed that as the battle progressed, you and I gradually moved to the middle of an 'encirclement' made of plasma rays......," he shrugged, "Yes, this kind of thing can't be done by me alone, and I need your cooperation...... After all, you're the one who attacked, and I was the one who dodged passively. Well...... From the look in your eyes at this moment, I can see that you finally understand that my ability is indeed not as simple as predicting the future, but unfortunately it is too late. ”

As he spoke, Uncle Xue put his left hand into his jacket pocket, took out a pair of rubber gloves, and put them on his hands.

"I didn't put my gloves on in the first place to prevent you from detecting my intentions." When Uncle Xue said this, he raised his leg again and showed the high-top rain boots he was wearing on his feet, "Of course, my clothes, pants, shoes, including the high socks inside, are all insulated." ”

At this point, he began to approach Karl, who understood that this was not a good sign.

Carl, who had been electrocuted, was completely immobile and in pain; The current released from the plasma mine is not the intensity of "electrocution" on ordinary people, but the level of enough to electrocute an elephant, and if Carl is not a fierce ability, he would have been electrocuted into charcoal a long time ago...... But with the entire area nearby covered by a layer of electrified river water, he couldn't even dive back to the surface.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to kill you." When Uncle Xue came to Carl's side, he lifted the brim of his cap, looked at the other party and said, "If I were going to kill you, you would have died a long time ago......"

This is the truth, when Carl was controlled by the first electric plasma mine, Uncle Xue could have exploded the opponent's head without a gun; He can be as he is now...... Put on gloves first, then pour a few explosive ant mines into the opponent's mouth, force them to swallow, and then completely "drag" Carl's body off the surface, and press the detonation switch at the same time, so that Carl will definitely die.

"Before I came, the 'boss' had already taken care of me, saying that your character was not bad, and let me try not to kill you." As Uncle Xue spoke, he had already passed by Carl's side, "I translated it in my mind, and this sentence should mean 'this person is still useful', because I know very well that the factor of 'character' is far from enough to be a reason for them to let people live." ”

Uncle Xue said that the work at hand did not stop; Over the next two minutes, he pulled out several metal pipes from the inside pocket of his trench coat and set them up one by one on the alloy pillars and ground around Carl - these devices, with the help of the river, continued to hold Carl down.

"Before we finish robbing the prison, we can only grieve you for 'electrotherapy' here for a while......" Before Uncle Xue left, he turned around and added, "Don't worry, those guys who came with me must have opened a hole in the ground somewhere in front of them at this time, and when the river flows to that side, it will flow down the hole to the Nine Prisons, and ...... There is also a lot of space on the sides and bottom of the barrier, so the water level here will not rise in a short period of time, and it will definitely not drown you, so you can stay at ease. ”

With that, he turned and walked away.

There is no joy of defeating a fierce master, nor is there any thrilling feeling.

Uncle Xue's back only tells a trace of tiredness.
