Chapter 15: Three Arrows Kill
Shadow Blade saw Ji Xinghuo go and return, and his face showed surprise.
But this did not affect his determination to kill Ji Xinghuo in the slightest.
Looking at each other just now, although I don't know why I was discovered by a weak Inhuman, I have to kill my mouth no matter what, otherwise once the police are called, the swordsmen of the "Sword Bureau" will arrive immediately, and it will be difficult for me to fly when the time comes.
"It's ridiculous that you dare to aim a bow at me!"
Shadowblade's eyes were filled with disdain.
However, what he didn't know was that the world in Ji Xinghuo's eyes at this moment was completely different from what he saw, and even no one on earth had ever seen the world from such a perspective.
The whole world has slowed down!
Ji Xinghuo felt like he had pressed the stagnation button, and the passage of time had slowed down dozens of times, to be precise, his thinking had become dozens of times faster.
The picture in the field of view is played frame by frame.
Everything is in order.
My brain is like an ultra-high-speed quantum computer, processing a large amount of information that would normally take tens of minutes or even hours to understand in an instant.
He saw subtle bumps on the concrete floor of the street, with a jumble of textures, like the surface of sandpaper;
The light emitted by the street lamp is extremely distinct, because it has just rained not long ago, and there are countless small water droplets floating in the air, forming a small range of Tyndall effect that ordinary people cannot see under the illumination of the light;
The "gold-leaf privet" planted on the side of the road has just been pruned, and the golden leaf incision is rough, and the water droplets remaining on the leaves reflect neon;
In the distance, on one of the floors of a skyscraper is a banquet hall, and the people inside are pushing cups and changing lamps;
Ji Xinghuo can even tell by the shape of his mouth that he is persuading him to drink.
"If you don't drink, you won't give me face!"
These images and information flashed through Ji Xinghuo's mind, and finally locked onto the shadow blade. At this time, the other person's appearance, characteristics, and movement state are fully revealed in front of his eyes.
The distance is 105 meters, and the speed is 29 meters per second.
He had sixteen wounds, all cut by an extremely sharp and light weapon;
The most severe wound was on the outside of his left leg, and the wound was so deep that it probably cut into the bone, slowing him down a bit;
Excessive blood loss leads to a pale complexion, a little dilation of pupils, and a certain degree of disharmony between the limbs and the body, most likely a neurotoxin;
There is no sound between the runs, this is "silent art";
The spectre condensed on his hand is an invisible blade, the core ability of the Shadow Blade, "Shadow Blade";
Just blending into the darkness is "shadow escape";
The footsteps are small and fast, with a certain unique shaking rhythm, the habit brought by the "lost step";
As he ran, he dragged out a faint shadow behind him, as if a layer of dark light was flowing, ready to be activated at any time, and the "afterimage" was released.
Five abilities, at least super inhuman!
Ji Xinghuo was not afraid.
At this moment, there was no concept of fear in his mind at all, he only felt that he was a god in this state!
Knowing everything, doing anything!
Ji Xinghuo sensed the compound bow in his hand, and illusory light jumped out of the void, as if from the guidance of the long river of time, forming a translucent dotted line extending from the arrow, pointing at the enemy who was rushing towards him.
This dotted line is the trajectory of your own shooting, which has not yet happened, but you already know the result!
As the arrows move, different possibilities emerge.
Ji Xinghuo quickly changed his shooting position several times, his eyes, throat, and heart, none of them could threaten the opponent, and he would always be easily dodged or hit with arrows. If you shoot in a non-critical position, you can't kill it with a single blow, and you will die.
In the field of vision, light and shadow are intertwined, overlapping, and countless information and possibilities are being deduced in an incomprehensible form.
Finally, the picture freezes!
Ji Xinghuo shot the first arrow, targeting a billboard on the side of the road more than 90 meters away.
His training arrows are made of carbon-aluminum composites, which are very light, and are deliberately weighted to 35 grams in order to accommodate high-tension strong bows.
Shout......
With a soft whistle, the arrow penetrated the shell of the square card and hit the capacitor inside, instantly causing a short circuit in the electrical box and triggering a chain reaction.
Bang!
The billboard, which was more than five meters high, burst open.
One side of the glass turned into countless shards and splattered all around, and several broken wires fell to the ground, emitting flickering electric sparks.
It had rained a while ago, and there was a shallow layer of running water on the ground.
Just then, the Shadow Blade approached the puddle of rain.
His reaction was extremely fast, and he didn't dare to risk stepping on the ground that might be electrified, and his figure bypassed it in a flash, approaching the wall of the building to the left, and continued to run towards Ji Xinghuo.
Ji Xinghuo stood outside the gate, also against the wall.
He fired a second arrow.
But the shot was crooked.
At least in Shadow Blade's eyes, the arrow's trajectory was half a meter to the left, and it was impossible to hit him, so he ignored it.
"After all, it's just a junior alien, and it's not easy to have the courage to face me."
"It's normal to play out of order."
Shadow Blade thought so in his mind, and in an instant, he approached dozens of meters again.
His gaze was fixed on the young man standing there with the bow, the other man's compound bow had already been tied to a third arrow, the arrow lowered, aimed at his chest, as if he did not fully comprehend the current situation. Even if this arrow hits the chest, he will not die.
"You're going to die soon."
The "Blade of Shadows" in his hand was like substance, swallowing ghostly light.
For a more powerful opponent, the Shadow Blade must be attached to a dagger or short sword to exert the strongest lethality, but the opposite side is just a junior Inhuman, and the Shadow Blade can stab at will, slicing the throat with ease.
Bite......
Shadowblade suddenly heard a collision.
The source of the sound was very close, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw an arrow hit the wall on the left side of him, and with an incredible turn, it dropped in height and hit his left knee.
It was the arrow that just missed!
This was completely unexpected, and the point where the arrow collided with the wall was only two or three meters away from him, so he didn't have time to react at all.
The arrow stuck in his knee, a few centimeters deeper, and there was a sharp pain in an instant.
"Hmm......"
The shadow blade snorted, and the arrow drove the injury on the outside of the left leg, and the whole leg was completely powerless, and the body involuntarily unbalanced and rushed forward more than ten meters, almost falling.
He managed to maintain his balance, and before he could rejoice, he looked up at the enemy in front of him.
A diamond-shaped black dot quickly enlarges in the eye.
Burst!
A third arrow shot into his right eye, instantly piercing his brain, and half an arrow came out of the back of his head.
The body of the shadow blade continued to rush forward under the action of inertia, and after falling to the ground, it rolled a few meters, and happened to stop in front of Ji Xinghuo, only a few steps away.
Ji Xinghuo calmly looked at the motionless corpse and confirmed that he was dead.
"Whew!"
He suddenly gasped for breath and uncontrollably withdrew from the powerful state that the Vientiane Star Pupil had opened.
Suddenly, I felt a tingling pain in my brain, my physical strength and spirit dropped to the lowest point, and my body seemed to be completely hollowed out, tired and dizzy.
"Vomit ......"
Ji Xinghuo leaned against the wall and spit out the barbecue he had just eaten.
It's not because it's the first time I've killed someone, I don't feel anything at all. Vomiting is a physiological reaction caused by dizziness in the brain, and I can't control it. As he vomited, he heard his heart beating wildly, and he finally felt a pang of fear in his heart.
And all this is because I have taken one more look at you......
"What happened to the Vientiane Star Pupil just now?"
Ji Xinghuo recalled that the first thing he did was to open the interface of the Vientiane Star Pupil and immediately found the abnormality.
【Master of Vientiane Star Pupils: Ji Xinghuo】
[Race: Earth Humans]
[Rank: Beginner Inhuman]
[Star Power: 1/56]
[Ability: Thousand Dexterous Hands (Level 10/47)]
[Spiritual Energy: 137]
Ji Xinghuo was stunned.
When he shot the enemy just now, he saw something on the corpse break out, like a wisp of changing mist energy, in thousands of forms, and disappeared in an instant without looking carefully, and there seemed to be something more in his mind, but he didn't expect it to be spiritual source energy!
He had been studying the spiritual source energy for a long time and had not figured it out, and suddenly there was it!
"Do you have to kill people to get spiritual energy?"
Ji Xinghuo was shocked at first, and then his mind became very complicated, but now was not the time to study what the spiritual source could be of any use.
He immediately called the police on his mobile phone.
As long as you click on those few warning messages, you can operate, and the people from the Ministry of Public Security will locate the coordinates of the mobile phone and arrive immediately.
At this time, someone had already discovered the situation at the door of the building, and they turned around and ran away in fright.
Ji Xinghuo observed the corpse on the ground.
He still has palpitations, a super stranger, who was actually killed by himself!
Suddenly, he saw something next to the corpse, which should have fallen out of his pocket when he was about to roll in death, in the shape of a crystal, transparent and colorless, with a very irregular shape and sharp edges, just looking at it felt an abundant "activity", causing a slight distortion of the air around it.
This activity is the aether energy, and it is very familiar.
"Xenomorphs?"
Ji Xinghuo felt that this crystal seemed to have been seen before, a little familiar, but it was different, and he didn't think about it for a while.
To be sure, this must be a very powerful xenomorph!
He thought about it for a moment and bent down to pick it up.
The crystal is so light that its weight is barely felt, and its interior is completely transparent, and if it weren't for its unique activity, it would be no different from a piece of broken glass thrown on the side of the road.
Its texture is not as hard as expected, with a little elasticity, but it is very tough, like a grain of jelly.
Ji Xinghuo observed it intently.
Suddenly, the interface of the Vientiane Star Pupil automatically popped up in the field of vision, revealing information that had never been seen before.
[Xenomorph: Rotating Magnetic Field]
[Grade: Overrun]
[Fusion success rate: 99%]
[Upgradeability: Yes]
Ji Xinghuo's pupils couldn't help but dilate, and the hand holding the crystal trembled slightly.
Not only because the crystal in his hand was a super-limit-level xenomorph, but what shocked him even more was the function of the Vientiane Star Pupil, which could directly display the information of the xenomorph!
Ji Xinghuo stood on the spot, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Until he heard a roar overhead, he looked up and saw a medium-sized aerospace fighter hovering over the apartment building, the hatch in the belly of the plane opened, and a shining figure flew out of it, falling from the sky and falling at high speed towards his position.
