Chapter 50: Challenges (3)
"However, my feelings for Zhan Nasi are beyond your comprehension. A huge shadow rose from behind the tall figure in front of him, obscuring the light of the campfire.
The instantaneous change in light made Tosaka's eyes temporarily useless. But he did not panic in the slightest, but immediately drew a bronze knife from Faust's dust glove, covered his head with a shield, and hurriedly fell backwards.
Faust had not been idle when he had spoken to Tosaka, he had been accumulating dust under his control, and when the amount of dust was roughly enough, he attacked brazenly.
But it still let Tosaka run.
Faust manipulated some of the dust to obscure the light source, and secretly condensed the other part of the dust into a solid clod, intending to defeat Tosaka while his vision was blocked.
Unexpectedly, Tosaka was not affected by the change in light in the slightest. You know, many experienced fighters have a hard time dealing with this move.
"Oh? Faust continued to talk trash talk that didn't have any nutrients, "Countless opponents who are stronger than you have fallen under this move, and it seems that you are worthy of being remembered by me." Decades from now, Zhannath and I are both old, and we may talk about you when we reminisce by the fireplace. ”
This kind of nonsense that can come up with a dozen pages of nonsense with a slap of the brain is not effective in improving combat effectiveness, and even does not even interfere with the enemy, but it can effectively improve the enjoyment of battle. The famous fighting event WWE, Faust's previous life, was a big fan of this idea.
Tosaka still didn't answer, just like he had at the beginning of the duel, slowly circling around the edge of the campfire's light, waiting for an opportunity to launch a new attack.
Faust looked at his red eyes, which had been illuminated by the campfire by chance, and suddenly felt that he had seen a wolf.
Faust shook his head and dispelled his illusions—ridiculous, how can a man be a wolf? Maybe I'm too tired. Faust comforted himself with this, but he knew that no matter how tired the psychic was, he would not hallucinate.
"Well, this time it's time for me to attack first. Faust suppressed his suspicions, he didn't want to dwell too much on the subject - while Tosaka must have some kind of secret hidden in him, he was about to take part in the adventure of the City of Flesh, and there was no need to make a fuss about it now.
So, let's defeat this kid first, if he survives, there will always be a chance to figure out what is going on with him in the future. Faust made a decision.
Tosaka paused, as if he was about to pounce on Faust again. Faust naturally won't let him seize the initiative twice in a row, "I said, this time I'll attack first." ”
"Bang!" A huge stream of sand slammed down from Tosaka, but Tosaka nimbly rolled on his side to dodge the attack. Faust still used his previous tactics, albeit with a slight change - he had covered the campfire with sand to provide cover for the attack of clods of dirt, and now he had the fine dust scattered into the air, then condensed into a mass at a height of ten meters, and then struck the ground with precision.
In the night sky, the sand rotates silently, unobtrusively, like a venomous snake lurking in the darkness, waiting for its prey to reveal its flaws and strike swiftly.
However, Faust's attack was not limited to this, the sand that landed on the ground was like a wave, and like a beast, it attacked Tosaka in waves.
But the insidious combo didn't really hurt Tosaka. He didn't pause after rolling on his side to dodge Faust's sky-falling quicksand attack, but continued to roll, just in time to dodge the waves of sand that followed.
After using it just now, Faust has become more and more proficient in controlling Hude Meier's dentures. He was now able to mix the sand with tiny pebbles, which had left several scars on Tosaka's body, keeping Faust's record from being too ugly.
Faust looked at Tosaka, who was unscathed, and his face couldn't help but darken—he thought that the first battle of the night was just a warm-up, but he didn't expect it to be a little tricky.
What he didn't know was that Tosaka was equally surprised...... Even anxious.
"You...... It's amazing. Tosaka opened his mouth and did not speak for a long time, making his voice slightly hoarse. "I'm afraid I'm not your match yet, but...... I won't let Zhan Nasi marry you!"
He didn't hide his strength before, but by accident, his skin was punctured by his father's relic wolf tooth ornament, and since then, his body has deteriorated, and even to the point of dying several times. If it weren't for Zhannasi's meticulous care, he would probably have died like this.
Originally, he only regarded Zhan Nasi as his sister, and after his parents were suspected of being killed by the old chief, he developed a sense of alienation from her. But after these several serious illnesses, he found that he was in love with Zhannasi.
It seems that fate still has mercy on him, and good things come one after another, and not long ago, his power gradually returned, and became stronger than ever. Until now, only Zhan Nasi knew about it.
He had even figured out that regardless of whether his parents were killed by the chieftain or not, he would give up his hatred, and even respect the chief like his grandfather, begging him to marry Zhannath to him. He would take the place of his father and become the sharpest knife in the chief's hand, a stronger and more obedient one.
However, all his plans fell through ten minutes ago. This man who suddenly appeared, he took everything from himself! He did not hesitate to give up hatred to get everything!
"I don't want to, this cursed power ......" he slowly lowered his head, the bronze knife and shield hanging at his sides, "The power that even Zhannasi doesn't know, you should be the first to comprehend!"
As if suppressed for too long, his voice gradually spiraled out of control, and by the end, it had turned into a roar.
Faust sensed the danger, and before he had time to think about it, he hurriedly manipulated all the sand and dust at his disposal, and no longer cared about any tactics, but just gathered around Tosaka as quickly as possible.
Oddly enough, Tosaka did not dodge. As a result, an ovoid object more than three meters tall soon appeared in place.
"It's over?" Faust took a deep breath as he turned around, "Looks like I'm too suspicious......"
"Bang!" a loud bang came from behind him. Faust turned around suddenly, and was stunned to find a bulge protruding from the gray giant egg, and countless cracks spread in all directions with the bulge as the center.
"Bang, bang!" There were two loud bangs, and two similar bulges appeared in the other two places, and the entire giant egg was almost completely shattered, and through the cracked gap, a strong figure could even be seen struggling.
The loud noise just now was just the product of the force of his hands and feet.
Faust hurriedly manipulated the dirt to heal the crack, and caused slender tentacles to grow on the inner wall of the giant egg, reaching into Tossaka's mouth and nose, trying to suffocate him.
However, these tactics, which should have been quick and effective, were all in vain.
"Boom!" A loud bang that overshadowed all the previous sounds came out of place, and the giant egg instantly dispersed into a cloud of dust, covering the entire venue.
