Chapter 124

~11 min read 2,045 words

Facing Go-Jin treating the power of "Dark Wave" as magic.

Tang Zheng naturally had no intention of explaining.

The skill effects displayed by the "High Rank Job" were completely different from the martial arts of this world, so it was normal to be identified as magic.

"I was careless just now."

Go-Jin took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and looked at Tang Zheng with fierce white eyes, having already recognized him as a true opponent.

"My weapon was also a bit lacking." Tang Zheng heard what the other party said, raised the remaining sword hilt covered in cracks in his hand, and threw it on the ground casually.

Go-Jin saw the shattered iron sword fragments on the ground, his pupils contracting.

What exactly happened just now?

At that moment, besides his body becoming stiff, his spirit was also somewhat dazed, and by the time he reacted, this deep wound had already appeared on his chest.

Was that magic method just now at the cost of destroying the weapon?

This thought flashed through Go-Jin's mind quickly; he squatted slightly with his thick legs and widened his eyes.

"Outer Skin Strengthening!"

Go-Jin shouted in a low voice, then clenched his fists and spoke again: "Outer Skin Super Strengthening!"

A layer of light brown light flickered on Go-Jin's whole body, and then another layer of slightly brighter light brown light appeared.

Looking from afar.

A metallic luster seemed to rise on Go-Jin's dark green skin.

Tang Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at the information appearing on the attribute panel; he had always attached great importance to the unique martial arts of the Other World.

Especially the strengthening types of martial arts, which were completely different from magic strengthening.

For example, strengthening magic like "Magic Strengthening", "Magic Super Strengthening", etc., if used at the same time, would only retain the highest-level strengthening magic.

But martial arts were different!

Like "Outer Skin Strengthening" and "Outer Skin Super Strengthening" used together, they wouldn't retain only one kind like magic, but would stack.

This was the special feature of martial arts!

Tang Zheng withdrew his gaze from the attribute panel and didn't learn these two strengthening martial arts.

It wasn't that he didn't want to learn, but that he couldn't use them.

Humans, besides a thin layer of skin, didn't have the outer skin that demi-humans possessed, so this type of strengthening couldn't be used by humans.

"I underestimated you, human alchemist."

Go-Jin's rough voice rang out; his thick, long arms hung down, reaching his thighs, and he spoke solemnly,

"Next, I will only attack once; if you can block it, I will apologize for my arrogance."

After saying this sentence.

Go-Jin felt a little ashamed; his warrior's intuition allowed him to vaguely perceive that Tang Zheng's aura was not as strong as his.

The other party was also a magic caster who was good at alchemy.

In this situation, he was not only wounded and forced back by the other party, but also forced to use his strongest defensive means to prevent the kind of attack just now.

Hearing Go-Jin's words.

"One move to decide the winner? I'm the one taking advantage." Tang Zheng said, but his gaze relaxed slightly.

Regarding hard strength.

Tang Zheng had self-knowledge; he was not Go-Jin's opponent at his current level.

The only way to defeat the other party was a long-range war of attrition, using Go-Jin's inability to fly to his disadvantage, Tang Zheng could summon Flame Archangels to take him into the sky and then attack.

However.

The magic scrolls of Flame Archangels in his hand were almost exhausted in the Great Swamp, and the only gain was "Experience Bar: 20152/10000".

Barely breaking through twenty thousand, he could stably level up once.

The remaining two magic scrolls were also destroyed by Go-Jin in the battle just now.

As for the three days of returning to the Imperial Capital, Tang Zheng just casually made two Flame Archangel magic scrolls, and most of the remaining magic power was injected into the "Orb of Death 110/280".

So, even a war of attrition was slightly difficult.

Go-Jin's sudden visit was completely unexpected, which meant he hadn't prepared for it.

However!

He exposed the ability of "Dark Wave" just now to prepare for the war of attrition.

Tang Zheng glanced at the blood still overflowing from Go-Jin's wound, his eyes calm.

After the "Cursed Knight" was promoted to 3lv, the damage caused by the curse would have the effect of making minor healing unable to treat and curb regeneration ability.

This had a natural restraining effect on species like trolls that relied on regeneration ability!

Go-Jin might not have realized it yet, but after a while, the negative state of bleeding alone would be enough to drain Go-Jin to death.

"I'm going to attack!"

Go-Jin reminded him, and his fierce aura was released instantly.

Boom!

The ground shook.

Go-Jin stepped out with both legs, his massive figure rushing toward Tang Zheng like a speeding train, forming a strong air current that swept over.

At the same time!

A flash of martial art light flashed on Go-Jin's body again: "Flowing Water Acceleration!"

His already extremely fast speed suddenly increased by a level; just as he was about to rush in front of Tang Zheng, Go-Jin seemed to be preventing Tang Zheng from using the method from before again.

Bang!

His footsteps pressed down hard, he leaped into mid-air, and with the power of his massive body falling, he swung his fist down.

Such a technique!

Even if Tang Zheng used that method again that could make him lose consciousness and body control, he could still continue to launch an attack with the trend of his body falling freely.

"What a strong combat intuition."

Tang Zheng looked at Go-Jin, who was falling like a giant rock in the air, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Even Tang Zheng himself didn't expect that he could use such a strategy to avoid the stiffness of his body.

Additionally, this kind of attack method, even if he summoned Flame Archangels to defend, wouldn't have much effect; the other party would use his own weight to press the angels down together.

Use Fourth Rank Angel Summoning?

No need!

The light of Tang Zheng's whole body's magic power flashed, his body shrank rapidly to the naked eye, and he moved his feet, flying away from the spot like an arrow.

"Shrink"!

In the blink of an eye, Tang Zheng had already appeared dozens of meters away.

Boom!

Go-Jin missed his punch, forming a visible air force, and saw Tang Zheng, who had easily avoided his attack, with fierce white eyes, revealing a hint of excitement.

He hadn't encountered such an interesting opponent for a long time.

Clearly weaker than himself, but not only able to wound him, but also able to easily dodge his attacks.

Go-Jin suppressed the excitement in his heart, curled his lips, his sharp teeth protruding, and looked at Tang Zheng with a smile, speaking without hiding it: "I lost, human alchemist."

If the opponent was a weakling, Go-Jin wouldn't bother to have any communication with the other party, but the short exchange just now made Go-Jin realize that Tang Zheng was not a weakling, but a strong person with mysterious magic means. "Let's reintroduce ourselves, my name is Go-Jin."

Go-Jin said heartily.

"Free Will Tang." Tang Zheng's body swayed, and his body size returned to its original state.

Bang!

Go-Jin sat on the ground with his legs crossed, making a muffled sound: "Then let's talk, Tang."

"Okay."

"However, before that, the wound on your body needs to be treated first."

Tang Zheng said calmly, pointing to the sword wound on Go-Jin's chest that was still gushing blood, which seemed to be gushing faster due to the intense movement just now.

Go-Jin looked at his chest, his white pupils contracting.

As a species born with powerful regeneration ability, those wounds that were fatal in the eyes of humans were just things that would recover after a little time for him.

But now!

This wound, which he considered at most a minor injury, hadn't recovered until now, and this amount of bleeding was clearly not normal.

=9+Shu_ba

"You..."

Go-Jin raised his head and paused after opening his mouth.

At this moment.

The various forces in the Imperial Capital waiting and watching the excitement outside the noble courtyard looked at the tightly closed gate with some doubt.

They naturally knew why the "Wu Wang" Go-Jin appeared here; logically, it shouldn't have taken such a long time.

As a result, it had been peaceful inside until now.

Time passed bit by bit!

Until evening.

Go-Jin pushed open the heavy, exquisite gate and walked out of the noble courtyard, scanning the many doubtful gazes outside.

"Hmph."

Go-Jin let out a cold snort.

Ignoring this group of people, he solemnly closed the gate and then left; wherever the massive figure passed, countless pedestrians took the initiative to clear the way.

Many people in the crowd showed shocked expressions.

Just through a small action of Go-Jin.

This group of people immediately realized that something they didn't know must have happened inside.

Such intelligence was also sent to the Bloody Emperor for the first time.

If it were other things, the Bloody Emperor wouldn't care, but as a fan of the "Wu Wang" Go-Jin, and also involving the symbol of the Empire.

The Bloody Emperor immediately sent people to let Osk of the Imperial Arena ask Go-Jin what had happened.

A mere alchemist could actually make the "Wu Wang" Go-Jin stay there for such a long time; no matter how you looked at it, it was abnormal.

In the luxurious hall.

The Bloody Emperor kept walking in the room, his slender fingers resting on his chin, a thoughtful look on his face.

"Unique alchemical technology."

"Refining potions with troll blood..."

The Bloody Emperor Jircniv raised his head, his golden pupils flashing, "Could it be that the other party's purpose was the 'Wu Wang' Go-Jin from the beginning?"

"It doesn't seem like it either; this person is becoming more and more problematic."

Knock! Knock!

A light knocking sound rang out.

"Come in." The Bloody Emperor Jircniv said without raising his head.

The secretary pushed the door open carefully and walked in.

"Speak."

"Osk asked, the Wu Wang didn't say anything, just canceled all the matches for the next few days."

The air was quiet for a short while.

"Continue to arrange manpower to watch that alchemist closely."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Late at night, noble district courtyard.

Tang Zheng looked at the moonlight covered by dark clouds in the sky, smiled lightly, and said to the little evil spirit dog beside him: "It's time for us to leave."

"Awoo." The little evil spirit dog.

Tang Zheng reached out his palm and patted the little evil spirit dog on the head: "Shrink."

The little evil spirit dog's body shook, and in the blink of an eye, it became the size of an ordinary puppy.

Tang Zheng took out a feather of some kind of bird from the item box, held it in his hand, and his body began to glow with emerald green light.

"Wild Transformation!"

Whoosh!

Tang Zheng's body twisted and shrank slightly, turning into a large goshawk over a meter tall.

……

Skill: Wild Transformation (i)

Consumption: A corresponding material of a wild beast or monster is required for transformation; the material can only be used once.

Description: The changed wild beast or monster must not exceed the size of the transformer; the ability before transformation cannot be used after transformation.

When the level of the transformer exceeds the level of the changed wild beast or monster, it is calculated according to the limit of the wild beast or monster's own level.

……

Tang Zheng shook his body slightly, still somewhat unaccustomed to the somewhat weak wild beast form.

Glanced at the attribute panel: Goshawk (8lv)

"The maximum is only level 8?"

A human voice came from the sharp eagle beak.

Splash!

The wide, powerful wings spread out and flapped hard.

Tang Zheng grabbed the shrunken little evil spirit dog and soared into the sky, disappearing into the night.
