Chapter 129: The Power of Fear
Ian's muttering brought Morton's attack to a halt. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info However, after a moment of stagnation, he suddenly let out a roar that was high-pitched with fear, and the attack of the long sword became more and more violent, and even the swordsmanship that originally had some rules suddenly became messy.
In a short period of time, Morton already knew that the opponent's strength was far above his own, even if he used his heart to promote the power to such a point, but the opponent still performed with ease. His swordsmanship is even more like child's play in front of the other party, and a sword he stabs casually can make him embarrassed.
Morton was horrified by the inevitable death, and he had no better way but to push his mind beyond the limits of what he could bear, and use such a crazy offensive to fight for that glimmer of life.
Such a self-organized enemy should have been the best to deal with, but after the exchange of swords, Ian suddenly frowned.
The opponent's strength was even greater, and just one head-on two-sword confrontation actually made his palm hurt.
At this time, Morton had transformed into a fierce beast in human form. He gave up a small area of movement, for each step shattered the hard ground beneath his feet, spreading out a circle of cracked splinters. He gave up control of the sword theory, because each swing of his sword was already capable of driving a huge wind pressure, enough to crush any stone forest he touched.
Sensing this, Ian also changed his strategy, no longer engaging the opponent head-on, but using his absolute skill to use just enough power to penetrate the wind pressure on the opponent's sword, sideways the opponent's sword spine, and guide the opponent's sword path that has no regularity.
This opponent really surprised him so much that although he had the means to kill instantly, he didn't want to end the fight so quickly.
Ian: He's not in a hurry.
In fact, it was the third enemy he had caught up, and the time had barely pointed to a quarter past three in the morning. The night before dawn was always the darkest, and he still had plenty of time to observe, to discover, to find a better way to deal with the able.
Ian has never forgotten his true purpose, and the fundamental reason why he wants to fight the capable is to perfect his swordsmanship.
For his swordsmanship, the capable person is a hurdle that can never be bypassed.
The true essence of Ian's swordsmanship lies in seeing through the enemy, controlling the enemy's rhythm, and using the most appropriate force to guide the enemy's movement and pull it into the rhythm he has prepared for him.
However, the mental image of the capable cannot be predicted!
In this world, how many weird and bizarre mental images a capable person has, only the capable person himself will know.
It is many times more difficult to thoroughly understand a capable person than it is to deal with mortals and demons.
After all, after the sublimation of consciousness, Ian's gaze can shine through everything, and the hidden movements of mortals and demons cannot hide from his eyes.
However, the mind of the capable is not.
Although Ian can sense the activation of some mental images by sensing the flow of mental power, most of them cannot make the slightest prediction of the effects that these mental images can produce, and even some mental images cannot be avoided by physical dodging alone.
This was the greatest test for Ian, who was desperate to find a way to anticipate the effects of these mental images when activated. However, this is bound to be a difficult project, and it will take Ian to understand it in the face of different talents.
And the reason why this enemy in front of him surprised Ian was because Ian faintly detected certain traces in him.
Although I don't know what the actual principle is, the power of this enemy is indeed increasing in a steady and never-ending manner. As his strength grew, Ian noticed in his consciousness that there was some kind of fluctuation or particle that seemed to break through the blockade of his body and spread out in the air.
It is a certain kind of volitional or emotional fluctuation that manifests traces of the original intangible object due to the power of the mental image.
Every capable person who goes outside the circle will lock this fluctuation in his own body, because it is this fluctuation that will attract the attention of the demon. However, at this time, Moulton had obviously broken through a certain boundary with all his might, allowing this fluctuation to radiate.
In Ian's consciousness as he dwelled high in the sky and overlooked everything, all the demons who were swept by the ripples suddenly turned their heads, and the red light flashed in their eyes, rushing towards their direction.
But although this ripple attracted the demon, it finally made Ian detect some traces of his mind.
Because in this circle of ripples, Ian experienced an emotion.
Is that...... Fear.
"Your strength comes from fear. ”
This sentence caused Morton to pause again, and he had been horrified by the exposure of his mental image when Ian said, "Is this your mental image?", but only a moment later, Ian suddenly revealed the true meaning of his mental image, which undoubtedly frightened him to the extreme.
His immense power does come from fear.
Whether it is his own or someone else's, as long as there is a fear within a certain range of his body, the more intense his emotion, the stronger his power will become. This mental image is highly operable, because it can force himself to think about what he fears the most, and thus induce great power. That's why he loves and hates the emotion of "fear".
But today, he didn't need to force himself at all, he was already in boundless fear because of the encounter with the Sword Master. And with being hunted down by Ian and being perceived in his mind, the fear in his heart was pushed to new heights.
However, Ian clearly didn't mean to end there, and after sensing that fear was the source of his opponent's strength, he sensed another possibility.
The applicability of mental images is a great problem for capable people. Some Mind Elephants cannot be used anytime and anywhere due to some limitations, while others are not suitable for combat at all.
Take Miss Julie in the investigation team as an example, she is indeed a median competency, but no one will regard her as a median competent. Because when she fights the enemy, she can only use the sleeping power that is still in the lower position. No one could have imagined what a joyous scene it would be if she threw a loaf of bread in battle.
If it weren't for the lack of other abilities that applied to the situation at hand, Ian would never have believed that Morton would have fallen into such a terrifying situation, let alone that he would be able to resist using them when he was so frightened.
So, after a little muttering, he spoke his judgment.
"It seems that your other mental images do not apply to combat, or rather to combat in this case. ”
Then, with great satisfaction, he saw that the other party's body involuntarily trembled violently. (To be continued.) )
