"Tsk-"

Ling Yu swept away Helis's leg with both hands, and took three steps back, but before he could stand firmly, a flash of fire erupted from Helis's right foot, pushing his small body over a distance of more than a meter, raising his left foot and kicking Ling Yu's head.

Ling Yu could only bend over to dodge, but at the moment when the huge metal boot grazed Ling Yu's scalp, the jet device on the back of her left calf was activated, driving the girl's body to rotate three hundred and sixty degrees rapidly, and before Ling Yu could react, she completed the rotation centered on her right leg, and kicked her left foot heavily on Ling Yu's calf.

The defenseless Ling Yu knelt on one knee, but Helis's attack had just begun, and the flames on the back of his left leg and the soles of his feet flashed again, forcibly twisting the movement from left to right, and the girl naturally lifted her knee, and the metal knee pad was pressed against Ling Yu's chin, knocking the youth directly into the air, and then a volley roundhouse kick, kicking the youth like a tattered sandbag for the fourth time.

Ling Yu reluctantly adjusted his posture in the air, propped his feet on the ceiling to reduce the force, and then landed on the ground.

The TF battle, which is usually measured in seconds, had already lasted for a full five minutes, and Ling Yu hadn't even been able to touch Herris.

Although Ling Yu had been trying hard not to despise the girl in front of him, he had to admit that until ten minutes ago, he had almost no doubts that he could defeat this girl in hand-to-hand combat.

In his imagination, the strongest ability of this digital princess who is good at manipulating drones is to use all kinds of ubiquitous mechanical gadgets to interfere with Ling Yu, so that Ling Yu has no way to concentrate, or forcibly interrupt Ling Yu's attack, instead of fighting himself head-on with the same strength as himself as he does now.

And he was completely pressed and beaten.

Of course, Ling Yu understands that if he simply competes in strength, he is still above the girl, that is to say, if the two sides fight for punches, although he is a bit of a big bully, he can definitely win, and it will not be too difficult.

The problem is rhythm and judgment, or rather, in Herris's shoes.

Normally, in hand-to-hand combat, the force of the mover and the hitter are the same, which will lead to a stun in the body once one's move cannot hit others, and the force will be sent out, and then readjust the posture to prepare for the next blow or to defend against the opponent's counterattack.

And the greater the strength, the greater this hitstun, of course, if you can hit the target and the target is indeed damaged, then the target's own stun must be greater than the attacker, on the other hand, if the attacker and the target's strength gap is not large, the attacker misses with all his strength, it is easy to open the door and be counterattacked by the target.

However, Helis did not have this situation, with the help of the metal boot spray, once her attack missed, she could immediately change her movement in most cases, using the force of the spray to "cancel" such a missed hit, coupled with the soft body and gymnast's same movements, so that Ling Yu could hardly catch Helis's attack rhythm, and therefore could not launch any effective counterattack.

Helis stood on the ground, his right foot supporting his body, his left foot lightly touched the ground, and he put his hands in a posture that did not belong to any martial arts school with an expressionless face, looking at Ling Yu quietly.

However, a child is a child after all, even if he wears a muscle strengthening suit, with the help of the booster boots, he can't produce too strong damage, so for a full five minutes, except for the first defenseless attack that is a little ruthless, Helis's dozen attacks are still within the range he can withstand.

This was probably Ling Yu's only chance.

Ling Yu flicked his right hand, and the shimmering dagger appeared in his hand, he had now let go of all his conceit and arrogance, and began to face the girl in front of him seriously, trying to use a qiē method to defeat her.

However, unlike the previous situation where Ling Yu took the initiative, this time, Helis rushed directly towards Ling Yu, and just as Ling Yu was about to attack, the girl suddenly leaned back, and the whole person fell backwards, turning into a sliding shovel posture and rushing towards Ling Yu's legs.

Ling Yu frowned slightly, this posture was not suitable for the play of the dagger, and the moment the two intersected, Ling Yu kicked at Herris.

The girl lying on the ground changed her move again, and the jet brought her body up, from lying flat to a backflip high attack, the metal boot hit Ling Yu's chest, kicking him until his feet were off the ground, and the girl who completed a somersault was in the air and hit Ling Yu's body with the part of her knees.

This attack was clearly more powerful than the previous ones—as evidenced by the advancing flames that burst out of Helis Boots.

Ling Yu was directly knocked into the air and slammed into the wall.

However, when the young man landed, the corners of his mouth were hooked - and on the left arm of the girl standing more than ten meters away, there was already a burning mark.

However, in the next second, Ling Yu's smile froze on his face - a drone with a red cross painted on it slowly landed beside Heris, stretched out a small robotic hand, and began to debride and treat her left arm.

Ling Yu's situation is getting worse and worse.

****

"Give me death!"

The fingers of Jeunse's right hand pierced deep into the muscles of Adam's abdomen, but they couldn't penetrate it, and the girl's legs far outstripped the artificial bones and muscles of the power armor, allowing her to easily pick up the almost 200-kilogram Adam's body and slam it into the wall at speeds of over 60 kilometers per hour.

However, Jess didn't think that the cracked wall was the end of a qiē, she pulled out her hand, and smashed an elbow blow to Adam's chest, and then the mechanical fingers grabbed his neck, and reflexively slammed the opponent to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw, and then the electric knife in her right arm popped out and stabbed into the opponent's chest!

"Whew-whew-"

Jess gasped twice, raised her hand to wipe her forehead, and then rushed to the wall next to her that separated her and Ling Yu without hesitation, but before she could take two steps, her right ankle was grabbed by Adam, and then the much smaller girl was picked up by the strong man, thrown in the opposite direction, and slammed into the wall.

"Bastard!!"

Jesse was already a little anxious, she wasn't hurt heavily, but obviously, the man on the other side was the same.

"The Knights' electric knives are nothing more than that, and the subsonic chainsaw can't do anything about me," Adam smiled coldly, tossing aside the still hot electric knife, the smell of roasted meat in the air, but the owner of the wound only sneered lightly.

Jesse stomped her foot and rushed up again, the five fingers of her right hand stabbing directly into the opponent's throat like claws—she somewhat regretted that she should have stabbed the electric knife into the opponent's throat instead of the chest.

But Jeunse didn't notice that she was already starting to get confused because she was too anxious.

The manipulator's claw was stopped by a forearm more than ten centimeters thick, and Jiesi simply buckled the opponent's forearm, pulled it back, and then stretched out her left hand and stabbed directly at the opponent's neck.

After a few minutes of fighting, Jesse's left hand was dripping with blood, and in some places gray bones were exposed—carburized marks.

Jeunse's left hand grabbed Adam's neck again, but there was no way to do any further damage—the monstrous muscular man had granite muscles in his neck that Jeunse's fingers couldn't get in the slightest.

Adam, who reacted, grabbed Jesse's shoulder with his right fist, lifted Jesse up, slammed her to the ground, and then lifted it again and smashed it against the wall in the distance.

Jesse even forgot to turn on the spikes on her metal boots during her wrestling with Adam to make up for the weight gap and prevent herself from being thrown!

"What's going on, I heard that you are the type that is getting stronger and stronger, and how you are making more and more mistakes."

Damn, Jiesi, calm down, Ling Yu must have a way, he will be fine.

Jesse gritted her teeth and took a deep breath to calm herself as much as she could.

However, when she was about to rush again, she suddenly froze in place, and the angry expression disappeared in an instant, replaced by an expression of surprise, pain, and despair.

Because a message suddenly came from her left eye.

The sensor, which had been monitoring Ling Yu's physical condition, faithfully sent back a report - the location of Ling Yu's heart flashed with a seriously injured red light.

"Give, I, Out, !!"

The knight girl in blue is rare, and she is truly angry.

****

Ling Yu lowered his head and looked at the long sword that pierced his heart from behind, his face was stunned, mixed with a faint chagrin.

Ten seconds ago, he was kicked away by Helis again, and this exchange was also his biggest result - he finally seized the opportunity to slash at the power boot, although Helis immediately changed the direction of the force, but the hot dagger still left a deep scar on the boot, damaging at least one vent and some wiring

However, this time, the direction of Ling Yu's flight was deliberately changed by Helis, and he did not hit the wall at the shortest distance - for TF, being kicked away would not cause too much damage, and could only be used to use the second impact to generate damage.

Just when Ling Yu didn't understand Helis's intention to change the direction of his flight, the long sword that pierced his chest gave him the answer.

Louise Canaris gasped and stabbed Ling Yu's chest in an unusual position, and although it was clear that the high-voltage current was still having a huge effect on her body, she managed to do so, and then spun the hilt of her sword to make sure Ling Yu's heart was crushed.

Ling Yu finally understood Helis's strategy, why he didn't make a move at first, and why he didn't use drones to continue to interfere later, just to paralyze Ling Yu and let Ling Yu focus all his energy on her body to ignore Louise, who was gradually recovering.

Let Louise be defeated first, leaving Ling Yu's mind with the thought of "she is not afraid", and then taking action herself and not using the drone, so that Ling Yu has no way to distract herself from the situation around her and immerse herself in a false security environment......

And Helis himself is not good at killing a TF - whether it is a drone or a fighting boot, it is difficult to kill a TF quickly and efficiently without letting the other party escape, although piercing the heart cannot kill all TFs, but Helis must understand that Ling Yu is the majority of those who will lose their breath because the heart is crushed, not to mention Louise's state, stabbing the brain may miss.

Every step was a perfect strategy, and Ling Yu was clearly the prey of the huge digital spider web of the digital princesses.

"At the end of the day, I still underestimate you."

Ling Yu's voice was very soft, as if he was just talking to himself, or he no longer had the strength to raise his voice.

Louise's heavy breathing even drowned out Ling Yu's voice, and suddenly, her hand holding the sword began to tremble, as if the man in front of her, whose heart had been pierced through her back, exuded an unprecedented danger, so much so that she almost dropped her long sword and retreated!

"But that's the end of it."

Ling Yu smiled coldly, suddenly raised his head, stretched out his right hand, spread his five fingers, and a silver syringe that had been empty slipped out of his hand and smashed into the puddle of blood that gathered on the floor.

Then, as soon as Ling Yu grasped the long sword that pierced his chest, he suddenly exerted his strength!
