Chapter 42: Alienation (1)
As the sky darkens, it's like the end of the world is in sight. Intensely swirling clouds obscured the endless clear sky, and the dividing line between day and night was now raised. The black clouds that seem to have life are constantly rolling.
Thunder came from the distant sky, and something alive seemed to writhe in the black clouds. There was a loud roar, flashes of bright white and dark cyan thunder alternately, and then lightning fell from the clouds like spears and spears like spears and spears.
The clouds in the sky gathered together to form patches of crimson and light purple thunderclouds, which tumbled for a while, and soon merged into one into a huge dense cloud, so low that it seemed to stick to the overhead, and the rain poured down, making the visibility of the whole city as dark as late at night.
The rain made a "bang" sound on the leaves, and in this dark and lonely grove, Sephiroth and the mysterious man stood opposite each other, the huge murderous forces were colliding with each other, the ground was shaking, all the sounds were muffled, only the sharp hiss filled the whole heaven and earth.
The woods are black and oppressive, silent and oppressive.
Silence.
As if completely isolated from the surrounding space, the air, very thin, and a huge pressure rushed to the face, like a violent hurricane blowing.
Dark, like a deep hell.
Wow! Wow! Wow!
The surrounding ice and snow, as well as the bleak moonlight and scattered heavy rain in the sky, darkened the ground. It seems that the whole world is engulfed in an eerie darkness. A strange aura that seemed to emerge from the Nine Hells swept through the space outside the two of them with a cold black mist.
Cold! The cold that penetrates the marrow and soul!
"You're just a pitiful test subject, we gave you extraordinary powers, and you betrayed us!"
The pale man's eyes were blood-colored vertical pupils, his skin was slightly silvery-white, and he looked very hard and cold, and his long hair reached his waist, and he was casually tied with a black ribbon. In his eyes, wisps of cold light flashed from time to time, giving people a gloomy feeling, cold and violent.
His hands were covered with black light at the moment, and the black light followed his hands all the way to his body, turning into a black armor full of metallic texture on his body, and a hideous mark on his chest.
This is a mark of a blood skull. Looking carefully at the pattern on the mark, I saw a dark black flame burning under the skeleton, and two red vipers pierced out of the black hole of the skeleton, and the bright red poisonous letter revealed a cold and poisonous feeling. Coupled with the bloody skeletons, the whole mark feels very hideous and evil.
It's familiar...... It seemed that he had seen it somewhere, but he didn't remember it for a moment. Possess this mark...... Who the hell is this man?
For some reason, the first moment Saphiroth saw this man, an irrepressible fury and anger surged in his heart!
The furious murderous aura flowed around him, and the air became so heavy that it was even difficult to breathe.
He was not panicked, nor nervous, nor provoked by his words, but from his dark eyes, there was a completely unshakable and extreme calmness.
It's as if he was born without feelings.
This kind of look made the man who was expecting his prey to beg for mercy feel as if he had been poured cold water on his head.
This made him angry.
"Now, it's time for you to pay for your betrayal."
The deep voice echoed in the air with a killing intent like pitch black, and even the stellar light above his head seemed to dim slightly at this moment.
The pouring rain made it impossible to open his eyes at all, but the man pounced directly on Sephiroth. The rain curtain that could block the view didn't seem to do anything to him at all.
He stomped lightly on the ground with his right foot, and almost instantly rushed in front of Sephiroth, like a high-speed train, smashing all the obstacles that dared to block him into pieces, no matter what it was, it could not escape the impact, and any item would be completely crushed, and there would be nothing left.
In an instant, a terrible sense of crisis instantly hit Sephiroth's heart, and he jumped violently without even hesitating.
The powerful explosive force saved his life, and almost at the same time as he left the place, a strong arm had smashed into his original position. A deep pit the size of a basin was smashed into the ground.
"Hmph......" Sephiroth's heart jumped, but he didn't hesitate, he directly turned around and came to the back of the man, and threw it over with one leg. The toes are from bottom to top, drawing a ferocious arc in mid-air.
With a crisp "pop", the air was kicked and exploded, and the agitated wind cut through the air like a sharp blade, blowing his hair straight up, fluttering in the air, and hunting.
The kick was powerful, incredibly fast, and angled, and it went straight to the throat of the mysterious man, as if trying to kick him to death.
With Saphiroth's strength and physical strength, his whip leg was enough to cut through a twenty-centimeter stake, which had been tested in countless hunts.
But today, he seemed to hit the iron plate, and although he kicked the back of the target's head accurately, there was only a muffled sound that seemed to be a kick on the metal, followed by a sharp pain in the ankle.
It's so strong...... Sephiroth's face changed slightly, and a gust of golden wind struck, and he hurriedly jumped away from his place, and sure enough, he dodged a sweeping fist. But when he landed, he stumbled and almost fell to his knees.
He felt that his foot bones had cracked, and this man's body was probably harder than ordinary alloy steel!
"Your strength has weakened."
The man sneered, and his right hand swung out like a whip at the same time, and in the crackling sonic boom, the terrifying power pierced through the air, tearing through the space, and where the fist passed, the space seemed to be penetrated, and there were circles of hollows.
Sephiroth also burst out with unprecedented speed, the whole person was like lightning, like a streamer, like a violent wind, spanning a distance of hundreds of meters, his hands became like metal, and the cold edge broke out in an instant, with an indomitable speed and strength, the air was pierced out of a small hole, and the circular ripples spread out around the cold edge.
The fighting methods of the two are surprisingly similar, that is, intense, brutal, fast-paced, high-frequency and full of killing.
They don't have sophisticated skills, but every move is fraught with the threat of death and death.
He used not so much physical skills as excellent reflexes and excellent physical instincts.
There are no rules, no fixed routines, and it's all about the experience accumulated after fighting all kinds of enemies.
What surprised the man even more was that Sephiroth, who had lost his memory and didn't know how to control his power, was able to remain undefeated under his attack.
Although it was an overwhelming situation, every time he was about to knock him down, he would be forced back by a sudden attack and solve the crisis.
Whether it is the angle of the move, the skill of unloading, or the pace of progress, it is almost perfectly completed in the shortest time, the shortest distance, and the most tricky angle, with this terrible sense of martial arts, or combat instinct, Sephiroth is definitely a terrible opponent.
"It's the most perfect combat weapon ever, but unfortunately, if you betray us, you must die."
He whispered and rushed over at great speed. Five fingers were smelted into a strange hand knife, slashing forward, and the terrifying power threatened to tear through the void and destroy the Eight Desolations.
This hand knife is condensed from flesh and blood, but it shines with metallic luster, sharper than a real knife, and the moment it breaks through the air, it makes a sound like a cotton cloth being torn, the air is cut, and the ripples visible to the naked eye are sent out to both sides, a translucent sharp energy, with the power of splitting the mountain and breaking the mountain, straight to the throat of Sephiroth!
The right hand slashed at Sephiroth's neck like a real knife, and the air made a sound like the scroll had been torn apart, and layers of ripples spread out clearly in the palm of the opponent's hand.
Sephiroth's eyes seemed to reveal a strong desire and fighting intent, dealing with a strong person of this level, if he did not guarantee the consciousness to kill him, he would probably die.
So, once you get your hands on it, there will be no mercy.
Boom!
With a hard kick on the ground, the ground suddenly cracked, and the range within a radius of five meters suddenly collapsed, and with the help of the recoil force, it instantly rushed into the sky.
As soon as he jumped up, he fell like a cannonball out of the chamber, with a loud roar. A hot trail crossed in mid-air, bringing countless sonic booms in the air, falling directly from a high place, and with the help of the falling momentum, it also pushed the momentum to the peak.
The miserable white palm instantly turned dark blue, and the ten fingers hooked up like the claws of a fierce beast, flashing a sharp cold light, and suddenly at a strange speed,
As if the ground was thundering, the air was unnaturally distorted, with the two fists as the center, the space suddenly shattered, and the crackling sound seemed to have a chain reaction, and the sound of crackling and cracking seemed to have a chain reaction, and the sound was non-stop.
Waves of violent qi burst out, and the violent waves of qi were like the sharpest air blades, destroying the surrounding environment. There were deep marks on the ground as if they had been slashed by a sharp blade.
The ground beneath the man suddenly collapsed, and the whole person sank deep into the dirt, and Sephiroth flew upside down, feeling as if his entire arm had been hit by a terrible blow, as if he had been whipped on the arm by an incomparable force, producing an unspeakable terrible pain, and the power in his hand was suddenly beaten and collapsed on the spot.
A pain that went deep into his bone marrow made his nerves twitch in the pain. His chest was hot, and his bones looked like they were about to break. A fishy smell and sweetness came from his throat, and an irrepressible liquid rushed out of his throat.
"You're just a small character."
The man pulled out his body contemptuously, undisguised mockery in his eyes.
"Now, you can die."
