Chapter 42: Ten Steps and One Kill
ββ¦β¦β
He could clearly feel that as the Lord of the Kingdom adjusted his breathing rhythm again and again, the aura on her body really began to slowly converge. Although the speed is very slow, unlike yourself, as long as you enter the state and prepare for a few seconds, you can immediately turn into a wooden man.
But this change is indeed real, and it is not an illusion.
At least in his domineering sense, the intensity of the aura on the girl's body had dropped by several percentage points compared to more than ten seconds ago. Although it seems to have been less stable again, and the decline has become more slower, it is enough to say a lot.
Wait, could it be that the girl in front of her, even if she didn't liberate the forbidden area of life, still had an unprecedented talent for mastering ability?
At this moment, the young man restrained his smile and carefully looked up and down the lord of the country.
"Hmmββ!!"
Imagawa Yoshimoto was trying to make this deliberate breathing method replace his original breathing rhythm, but suddenly saw Mu Xiu squinting his eyes up and down looking at him, and that kind of meaningful gaze suddenly made her heart throb, or should I say a panic.
As a result, the breathing rhythm that had just been adjusted was immediately disrupted, and she whispered in a loud voice, and at the same time subconsciously moved to her side, looking vigilant and perverted, but she herself refused to let go of the palm that grabbed Mu Xiu.
"Nothing, unreasonable...... What do you want?! β
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
"Even if I say 'yes' at this time, I guess you won't be able to understand what it means, right?"
Mu Xiu smacked his lips disappreciatively, then turned his head slightly. He suddenly had a vague idea just now, but it wasn't too clear for a while, and now he needed to hurry up and sort it out.
Sure enough, the Lord of the Kingdom had a puzzled look on his face, and he couldn't understand what he was saying at allβ
Language humor is a game of words, which can be said to be a kind of art, "homophonic misunderstanding", "expectation violation" and "different reading" are the essence of its connotation, but it is difficult for people with different languages and cultural backgrounds to understand each other.
What's more, Mu Xiu himself is not a language genius, and he has not exchanged for the enhancement of the special language ability of other countries and regions. His current ability to read and write in multiple languages is actually brought by the "Lord God" light ball in his body, and he can understand everything others say very well, and the same words he says have also been translated by the "Lord God", so that others can also understand.
But from beginning to end, in fact, the lord of the country spoke Japanese, but in Mu Xiu's mind, there was a feeling that Chinese was echoing. And he has always been speaking Chinese, but there is nothing that the Lord of the Kingdom cannot understand, and the most important thing is that both of them feel very natural and cannot detect anything wrong.
Only, as is the case now......
The translation of "Lord God" is only responsible for making people understand the superficial meaning, and understand the literal meaning, but it does not allow you to interpret the connotation that you cannot understand.
For example, it seems that between Owari and Mikawa, or more accurately, Aichi Prefecture, where Oda Shinna was born, there is a city called Inuyama. - But if Mu Xiu said that it was "Wang Feng", he would only be able to understand the literal meaning, but he would definitely not understand where the slot was.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"Wait, wait! They're getting closer......"
The black girl frowned and thought for a while, still puzzled, but unconsciously glanced ahead, but her pupils contracted suddenly. Immediately after that, she trembled and whispered to Mu Xiu.
"Aren't we leaving?"
At this time, the young man also came back to his senses, and slowly broke off the white tender fingers of the lord of the country who grabbed his arm one by one, and said faintly: "I know, don't you just have to wait for them to get close before you can do it?" But don't catch me, I can't get rid of so many people by dragging youβ"
"Hands-on? Isn't it bypassing? Imagawa Yoshimoto's eyes widened, and the decibel subconsciously was about to rise, but fortunately he woke up in time to lower his voice.
"Bypass? How is it possible to only deal with these guys silently, constantly going down the mountain from weak defenses...... There are no roads here, either dense forests or steep cliffs, and I can't fly down with you. Mu Xiu said of course.
I can't handle so many people with you in tow......
I can't fly with you......
The lord of the country didn't know what she was thinking, her shoulders trembled slightly, she lowered her head and said in a tone that couldn't hear the specific emotion: "But, but, since it's going to be done, then why do you deliberately choose here?" These guys are using firearms, and it's safer to break through from somewhere else......"
"Wait, I remember that you said that those things were toys, right?"
Mu Xiu didn't answer the question directly, but asked with interest, but his eyes kept paying attention to the enemy who had come to a distance of dozens of meters in front of him, and the muscles and nerves of his body began to tense.
However, Imagawa Yoshimoto didn't know what he was thinking, so he lowered his head and didn't notice.
She seemed to be holding some inexplicable emotion, biting her lower lip and saying, "Hmph, Nanban's firearms...... I've always thought of them as toys, because there's no time for you to use them on the battlefield, but I also know that flesh and blood can't stop them! β
That's right, even if it's a toy, the lord doesn't want anyone to actually test fire a shot at himself with that firearm.
"yes, there's no time at all β that's the point."
Mu Xiu nodded, and said with appreciation: "If they didn't mainly use arquebuses, I wouldn't have chosen to break through here, after all, ordinary people can stab them with bamboo guns, or they can cut them with a knife, and if they can't solve it at the first time, it will be very troublesome......"
ββ¦β¦ You...... What do you mean? Imagawa Yoshimoto raised her head strangely, she had already heard that the other party didn't want to leave her and run, but she misunderstood. But now she is even more confused, always feeling that something is wrong.
"Oh, how long do you think it takes from the first burning rope to the firing time? There are only thirteen people here, how long will it take me to figure it outββ? β
When these words fell, the black straight girl had just raised her head, and the sudden oncoming strong wind pressure made her subconsciously squint her eyes. When she looked closely, the person was no longer in front of her, and the branches of the grass and trees around her were still swaying back and forth.
The next moment, a huge sense of panic suddenly appeared in his heart, and the lord of the country subconsciously turned his head to look over.
ββ¦β¦οΌοΌβ
Then I saw dozens of meters away, in the dim environment, two human heads flying high with high blood pressure. And the momentum of Mu Xiu's entire body did not stop, just a lightning-like swing of the knife and slashing, and the scene of slashing two more people cleanly.
Then the boy froze only slightly, and then, in the time when it was almost impossible to react, he retracted the knife into its sheath, and the movement was almost to the extent that there was an afterimage of the image.
There was a muffled "bang".
This is when he kicked the ground hard, kicked out a big crater, and with the help of the reaction force of that huge force, an extremely sharp turn reflex, and then a ghostly body swooped up - he actually used inertia and anti-shock force to turn and change direction with incredible speed and surprise!
With the sharp slashing sound of the air being cut, the domineering and dazzling slashing line created by the swift knife drawing attack actually slashed the two of them again!
Then Mu Xiu took a deep breath in the interval between these successive attacks, then withdrew his sword, turned around, and twisted his arms!
The whistling wind flickered, and the face of a soldier on the outermost side of the farthest part of the ashigaru still maintained enough consternation. He threw away the weapon in his hand, subconsciously reached out to cover the big hole in his throat where blood kept coming out, and fell down with a desperate "ho-ho" sound, constantly spasmodic and convulsing, frantically making the last struggle.
At this time, the first two great heads to fly still hadn't had time to fall.
Because this series of killings, a series of deaths, happened so fast and so fast that no one had time to react. In less than a breath, seven people had already been killed, and even because of the terrifying life-killing sword light that changed direction in the air one after another, disappeared and appeared again so quickly and sharply, their bodies and brains did not have time to realize the arrival of death.
However, Mu Xiu didn't intend to make them realize that he had just thrown the long knife in his hand with lightning speed, knocking over the most distant troublesome target, and then almost at the same moment, the other hand had already pulled out another blade.
The last six people were also relatively close, and they were stunned for more than a second before they subconsciously opened their mouths, as if they wanted to shout. And when people are in the most critical situation, they are either so frightened that they can't move, or they don't have time to think carefully at all, and they will only resist with the weapons in their hands.
- It's like a first-time person on the battlefield, either scared stupid or only knows how to pull the trigger frantically, and doesn't know how to change it when he misses a bullet.
So obviously they also had knives around their waists, but four of them subconsciously immediately raised the arquebus in their hands, trembling and wanting to light the arquebus, completely ignoring that as long as they threw away the barrel, directly drawing the knife was the fastest and most correct response. As for the remaining two people, they were already frightened, their tongues froze, and they didn't do anything.
Without waiting for anyone to successfully raise the arquebus, he consciously aimed at Mu Xiu and lit the arquebus; Nor does it wait for anyone's mouth to open to the maximum and let the air flow in their throat rush out.
Mu Xiu had already stepped on the steps that seemed to shrink the ground into inches, and the Zong San Zuo text in his hand directly brought a sharp cold light that could not be ignored, and cut off the head of the first unlucky ghost!
The sword changed direction several times in succession, and almost in the same second, it drew a lightning-like attack trajectory in the air, cutting off the heads of five other people!
ββ¦β¦β
At this time, the Lord of the Kingdom blinked, and only then did he wake up from a dream and realized that his Zongsanzuo script did not know when it was taken away.
"It's so strong...... her body trembled slightly, but it was not because of fear, but because of excitement. How long has it been, and it's not enough for people to blink twice, right? But thirteen troublesome musketeers were killed without saying a word, and there was no time to make any loud noise.
Shaking his hand, Mu Xiu recalled the friction and feel of the blade into the flesh just now, as well as the killing that was refreshing to the extreme, and suddenly couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of joy. But he just grinned, not only did he not dare to think about it, but he also quickly suppressed his divergent thinking in this regard.
He walked in the direction of the unlucky ghost in the distance, who was still struggling and not dying, trying to get Hasebe Kunishige back.
And behind him, there were two "clicks", but the two heads that flew high before the earliest fell to the ground.
