MTL - The Puppeteer of Academy City-Chapter 22 Battle Mage
Kanzaki Kaori's slender and slender fingers gathered one by one, holding the handle of the knife calmly.
This woman... is coming for real! Ling Xingye's hair stood on end in an instant—he had indeed encountered and defeated many enemies, but this was the first time that someone as powerful as the woman in front of him was.
Although she hasn't really fought yet, the aura and sense of oppression she exudes are already constantly challenging the limits of Ling Xingye's imagination—this is a level that humans cannot understand before seeing it with their own eyes.
Ling Xingye had never seen such a powerful enemy, but he didn't intend to obey the opponent's words and surrender obediently.
Ling Xingye is an ability user, and he is also a level 3 ability user. Among the two million students in Academy City, he also belongs to the middle and upper class ability users.
In terms of direct combat effectiveness, the level of ability can indeed explain a lot of problems, but real combat is definitely more than just data on paper.
As a true puppeteer and warrior, superpowers are just a convenient weapon for him.
Battles are often won or lost not by the strength of the weapon, but by the person wielding it.
Ling Xingye's ability is the "phase fulcrum" of level 3.
At the beginning of his ability awakening eight years ago, Ling Xingye was able to "see" a cube with a side length of ten centimeters in his vision.
That cube can be divided, deformed, and moved arbitrarily. Moreover, under Ling Xingye's will, these blocks can interfere with reality, so in a sense they have "entity".
But only Ling Xingye himself can observe the existence of the "cube", for others, the cube is a fantasy that does not exist at all.
The reason why Ling Xingye's sprite can reach the level of delicateness and sensitivity comparable to human beings is that its whole body is controlled by one hundred and twenty-eight silk threads.
Its basic movements are controlled by Ling Xingye's hands and body, while further micro-manipulation and stunts depend on his abilities.
At this time, in the air, small squares that outsiders could not see were densely covered the entire battlefield, and they pulled the other end of the silk thread, controlling the demon to realize the movements in Ling Xingye's heart one by one.
These blocks have no "mass", so there is no inertia. The definition of their "fulcrum" is that they can be fixed at any coordinate in space.
Coupled with silk threads with strong physical properties, and sufficiently strong and flexible puppets...
These together make up the sprite's great strength and ghostly mobility.
However, when facing Kanzaki Kaori, a female swordsman who is good at Iai slashing and can determine the outcome with one strike, the sprite's defensive power is overwhelmingly insufficient.
Once it is cut, the monster will be completely useless!
Therefore, in the face of the next "Wei Shan", we must not use sprites to resist...
Ling Xingye's thoughts changed sharply, his pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a needle point, but he still couldn't catch up with the traces of the opponent's attack, he only felt a bright light flashing away from the opposite side - later, as if the time was misplaced, and the cause and effect were reversed, he finally saw The moment the opponent drew his sword.
It was too late for his body's reaction, but his mind kept up.
The silk thread on the sprite's body suddenly tightened, and it was pulled to the left with an aura that almost broke. It looked as if it had been blown away by a sudden blow.
"Are you crazy!" Seeing this, Kanzaki was startled.
Because after the puppet dodged her slash, it was Ling Xingye who faced Wei Shan directly!
Because the target was the puppet at first, Kanzaki didn't show mercy this time, but unexpectedly, such a situation happened.
But at this time, it was too late to stop. In fact, while the demon was dodging, the slash of "Weishan" had already landed on Ling Xingye.
Whoosh!
Ling Xingye's body was like an unloaded cannonball that shot back nearly a hundred meters, smashing through the wall and sinking deeply into a building.
With a ding, Kanzaki sheathed his knife and looked up at the shopping mall building.
blocked?
Her "only flash" is to slash, and if it really works, the target will not be knocked away - but cut in two cleanly.
And on the ground, the straight knife marks left by the remaining power of "Wei Shan" also stopped abruptly at the place where Ling Xingye stood before.
Kanzaki directed her extraordinary perception as a saint towards the building.
I only heard the boy talking to himself—
"So careless, you really didn't take me seriously!"
Kanzaki's heart tightened, and even sheathed the Seven Heavens and Seven Swords in his hand.
A huge impact hit through the barrier of the scabbard, Kanzaki felt as if he had been hit by a heavy truck, he couldn't help but let out a muffled grunt, and took more than a dozen steps back to dissipate the impact.
Looking intently, the ghost-faced puppet appeared in front of her, raised its fist again, and smashed it with the majestic momentum of heavy artillery bombardment.
There have even been shock waves generated by supersonic speed at the front of the fist.
There were thunderous roars as the monster raised its hands and feet, and it felt as if it had suddenly changed to a puppet.
boom!
A dull collision sounded, causing a circle of shock waves in the air.
Kanzaki raised her not-so-thick arm, and blocked the blow head-on.
Then, the jade leg swung up like a whip, kicking away the sprite.
The armor between the sprite's waist and abdomen shattered.
Sprite reached out and tore off the damaged armor, looked up at Kanzaki. There seemed to be a smile on the gloomy ghostly face on his face.
With the sound of wind and thunder, it disappeared from the spot again.
This time Kanzaki's dynamic vision has been pursuing its figure.
But the sprites did not attack again, but turned around and ran towards Stiyl and Kamijou Touma.
While Ling Xingye and Kanzaki Kaori were fighting fiercely, the battle between the two of them had completely reduced to a boring duel of physical strength.
Kamijou Touma's right hand can eliminate all the flame attacks released by Stiyl, and Stiyl, who has not used the "King of Hunting Witches", has nothing to do with it, and can only rekindle the flames constantly.
The magic power of a magician is transformed by refining vitality. Usually, the source of magic power is physical strength, so magicians still compete with physical strength in the end.
Kamijou Touma has only one right hand that can ignore the flame attack, and other parts of the body still suffer from burns to varying degrees. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
So the battle between the two of them became such a boring situation.
"Tsk, why don't you fall down! Although you continue to eliminate my flames, the accumulated heat almost makes your blood boil!"
"Who will fall! It's too early for this level!"
Kamijou Touma suddenly felt a strong shock coming from behind him as he was yelling words of refusal to admit defeat, as if he was standing in front of a high-speed bullet train running at full speed.
"ah!!"
Ignoring the enemy in front of him, Kamijou Touma screamed and threw himself to the side.
Stiyl was not so lucky—because Sprite's target was him in the first place.
Ignoring the huge inertia, the monster suddenly stopped less than a foot away from Stiyl.
The flame magician was immediately enveloped by wind and thunder. Amidst the deafening roar, his body even endured the hurricane that exceeded level 12 head-on.
The flame sword in his hand was also blown away by the gust of wind.
The sprite looked directly into the eyes of the flame magician, and the puppeteer's voice suddenly sounded from behind the mask.
"Let me ask you, are you a mixed-race Chinese? Are you a puppet master?"
"What are you kidding!" Stiyl laughed grimly, "I'm an Englishman through and through!"
"I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Immediately afterwards, Steele's voice suddenly distorted, and even his body began to distort and deform, and even gradually dissipated from the soles of his feet, "A mirage..."
"...Then, hunt down the Witch Queen!"
Stiyl's voice appeared five meters to the left, and he would rather waste energy entangled with Kamijou Touma for a long time, just for this moment.
The long-hidden trump card——The King of Hunting Witches is finally revealed again!
