Chapter 67: The World of Freeze Frame
Rewind time to the moment when the eagle had just taken off. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Seeing the eagle rise into the air, Ian already knew that it was unrealistic to try to save Lilith. After a long sigh in his heart, he straightened his mind and focused all his energy on the battle with Rhodes.
I have to say that the terrorist in front of him is indeed a rare opponent for him.
Since smuggling through the Sanctuary Gate, most of the opponents Ian has encountered, except for Fei'er, seem vulnerable. Although he was extremely cautious in the face of the night cat Colby and the evolutionary Pansedemon, it was only because he didn't know the true strength of the other party, so he chose it out of cautious consideration.
In the battle with the Night Cat, at first, Ian was not sure if the sword intent could work, and after confirming the effect of the sword intent, in addition to the endless mental images of the night cat, in terms of absolute strength, it could not pose much of a threat to Ian.
As for the battle with Pansemo, the strength of the archdemon is certainly strong, but Lilith, who lacks combat experience, is too immature after all, and when Pansemo swallows her, she just blindly escapes, and has no intention of turning back to fight him.
To sum up, for a while, Ian, who was less than the top and more than the bottom, really couldn't find an opponent worthy of a fight.
Fortunately, the all-knowing and all-powerful Lord seems to have discovered his current predicament, and has sent him a suitable opponent at the right time.
A high-ranking powerhouse who can only use half of his strength!
Dodging the oncoming punch, Ian was secretly stunned to see the house behind him collapse by the punch.
The man named Rhodes in front of him is indeed a member of a world-renowned terrorist organization. The two of them had moved away from the original location as they continued to fight, but in the process of fighting along the way, he was like a bulldozer, knocking down the houses he passed along the way.
In Ian's view, the demolition and relocation office in the previous life was not as efficient.
But seeing that the other party had caused such a huge amount of damage, Ian had no choice but to grit his teeth with hatred. Because being knocked down by the opponent's fist and being knocked on by the opponent's own flying self, there is no difference between the two for a house that will eventually collapse. And, obviously, the latter will also injure itself.
As a result, he can now only engage with him while directing them to sparsely populated areas in order to minimize civilian casualties.
After a long fight, Ian has gradually figured out the opponent's attack pattern, and when he copes with it, he has become more calm. However, he always understands that in terms of absolute hard power, he is inferior to the other party after all.
Not to mention, in order to send Lilith away, Rhodes did not order the giant eagle to flank him, which was equivalent to destroying half of his strength. Ian sighed to himself that he couldn't get out of being entangled in Rhodes, and Rhodes could get rid of himself at any time.
"Sure enough, Fei'er's evaluation of me is not wrong. Ian sighed in his heart: "Above the median, at the bottom." In the face of these real superiors, he is still a step behind after all, and he can only rely on his skills to deal with them. ”
After another confrontation, the two, who had consumed a lot of physical strength, had to stop for a while, separate from a safe distance, and confront each other from a distance while recovering as much as possible.
And just as the two were gathering strength and preparing to fight again, a deafening roar suddenly sounded in the sky.
Ian suddenly found that the steel giant eagle above a height of more than 1,000 meters was actually smashed down by others, and after falling to a height of hundreds of meters, he barely stabilized his body, and continued to fly towards the south with a wail.
"What is this?"
Rhodes had discovered this one step ahead of Ian, and it was his mental armament after all. At the moment when the giant eagle suffered a heavy blow, he almost felt it.
He knew that this must be those high-ranking people in the Northern Regions who made a move!
Knowing this, Rhodes suddenly frowned, he looked at the silver-haired boy in front of him, and fell into an inner struggle.
In terms of his original intention, he didn't want the mystery of his mind to be known by others, but right now, although the opponent's strength was not necessarily stronger than his own, it had also reached the level of the superior, not to mention killing the other party, in a short period of time, he was afraid that it would be extremely difficult to even defeat the other party.
On the other side, however, the situation is already dangerous. They had clearly confirmed before the operation that there was no flying existence among the upper powerhouses in the Northern Regions, but just now, the back of the Iron Giant Eagle had suffered a heavy blow, which had to make him wonder if the information collected by the organization was missing.
At the same time, he knew very well that his companions only had the strength of the median ones, and if the giant eagle was really defeated, then in the face of the encirclement of the multiple upper powers, although the other party had the ability to escape, the purpose of their trip would inevitably fail.
"Boy, you're in luck!"
After several psychological struggles, Rhodes gritted his teeth unwillingly, said a cruel word to Ian, and stretched out his palm to the giant eagle in the sky.
Seeing this scene, Ian didn't know that he was ready to retreat, so he hurriedly wanted to block the middle between him and the giant eagle and cover his vision of the giant eagle.
However, as soon as he wanted to leave, he suddenly saw a figure that should not have appeared here.
He stopped leaning forward, a smile on his lips, and became extremely calm at this moment.
Rhodes noticed his anomaly. But before he could be surprised, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He hurriedly turned around, and suddenly saw a familiar figure in a black trench coat and a hood slowly walking towards him not far behind him.
The chilling chill that emanated from the black sword at his waist emanated.
"How is this possible?" Looking at the approaching figure, he muttered in disbelief, "There are actually two Sword Saints?"
After all, there are very few people in this world who can pass through the gate of the Sage, and in history, the probability of multiple Sword Saints appearing in the same era is not very high, let alone two in the same place.
However, as a high-level powerhouse, in the past experience, Rhodes has seen too many incredible things after all, although he was surprised that there were two people in the "Black Sword Saint", but after being surprised, he immediately calmed down.
What if there were two Juggernauts?
After all, it is impossible to stop yourself from leaving!
He snorted softly, and even though he wanted to raise his hand and reach out to the giant eagle in the air, but at this moment, he suddenly found that he couldn't move.
No, it's not that I can't move, it's that it's moving so slowly, so slowly that you barely notice it's moving.
His consciousness was extremely clear, but he seemed to have entered a time stream that was very different from ordinary people. In this flow of time, everything around us tends to freeze, and even the fine dust floating in the air is frozen in this three-dimensional picture.
However, in this painting, there is a figure that can move like an ordinary person.
Looking at this black figure slowly approaching him, Rhodes only felt extremely frightened. How he wished his body could move, even if it was just a futile parry. However, at this moment, he seems to be frozen in this stagnant world, just like the characters in the painting, no matter how vivid it looks, but after all, he can only be frozen in place.
Step by step, the black figure approached, and the closer she got, the more frightened Rhodes became.
Although the other party walked slowly, but after all, he walked in front of Rhodes, but just as Rhodes roared wildly in his heart, thinking that the other party was about to draw his sword to obliterate himself, this figure passed by him lightly, as if his struggle and fear were an inconsequential farce for the other party, and it was not even worth looking at.
He was afraid, he was unwilling, he was angry, but with these complex feelings came well, and there was even more happiness on top of it.
Fortunately, the other party didn't make a move!
Time flowed again, the world came alive, and the dust in the air began to drift along its original trajectory.
But after rejoicing, Rhodes suddenly felt that his perspective was constantly rising, elevating, and finally returning to eternal darkness.
Looking at Rhodes' head flying into the air, Ian smiled wryly at Fei'er, who crossed the other party and appeared in front of him in an instant: "Why did you come out?"
Turning around to look in the direction of the giant eagle, Fei'er said in a deep voice: "I'm not too relieved. I always feel like something in trouble is going to happen. ”
"The Sage's hunch?" Ian whispered.
Fei'er nodded: "I hope I'm thinking too much." ”
"Now, I don't dare to underestimate these premonitions. Ian frowned, he had been very attentive to the "Sage's premonition" since he had tested it once.
Fei'er's strength is far above herself, if she feels troublesome, then it will definitely not be a trivial matter.
"Let's go too. Looking up at the faintly illusory eagle, Ian proposed.
"Hmm. ”
