Chapter 1143: Prediction and Exposure
According to the situation in the original work, the Ant King's strength was extremely powerful, and even the Chairman couldn't do anything about him, so he could only choose to perish together in the end.
The situation now was different. The Chairman had four helpers. Shui and Lao Yan could drag the Ant King, while Su Xiao and Chen possessed powerful attack capabilities. In a five-on-one situation, as long as the Ant King couldn't break through the defenses of Netero, Shui, and Lao Yan, the one who would die would definitely be the Ant King.
The Ant King, who was almost smashed in the skull, shook his head. The Duke of Silence's bullet failed to penetrate the Ant King's skull completely but was flicked away by the shell on his head.
The numbness in his chest and his blurred vision made the Ant King clear about one point: the three enemies around him were not a big threat to him, and the two humans in the distance were more dangerous.
Only now did the Ant King know that today's events were not a "farce," but a carefully arranged encirclement, an encirclement that could put him to death.
Thinking of this, the Ant King put away the idea of "learning how to fight from the people around him." The situation now was that if he could break through the defenses of the three people around him, he could live; otherwise, he would die.
Before the Ant King realized this, he hadn't fought with full strength.
Click, click...
Cracks appeared on the ground under the Ant King's feet.
On the watchtower in the distance, Su Xiao saw the Ant King charging through the scope. After seeing the Ant King's movements, Su Xiao was clearly stunned. The Ant King's combat experience was too trashy.
Come to think of it, the Ant King had only been born for a few days. Even if his learning ability was terrifying, the time was too short.
If the Ant King were allowed to master rich combat experience and develop a combat system suitable for himself, or master several Nen ability moves, his strength would definitely reach Tier 4.
Unfortunately, now the Ant King only knew how to fight with his body, or rather, he was fighting with brute force, so he only had Tier 3 top-level combat power.
If it were about destructive power, the current Ant King could also reach Tier 4, but destructive power and combat power were two different things. A strong lion, when facing a human holding a firearm, couldn't even make the most basic resistance.
With a click, cracks appeared on the ground under the Ant King's feet, and his body disappeared instantly. This was his first active attack.
Just as the Ant King disappeared, Su Xiao quickly adjusted the scope and pulled the trigger.
Bang!
A wave of air spread, and the bullet flew out.
With a slap, the Ant King, who had already disappeared, appeared. He planted directly into the ground, even rolling a few times, and a bowl-thick hole appeared on his abdomen.
The Ant King stood up, his eyes full of disbelief, because he had hit the bullet himself, or rather, the enemy had predicted his position.
"Beautiful!"
Lao Yan rushed toward the Ant King quickly. Su Xiao's predicted shot made Lao Yan feel shaken in his heart: was Su Xiao really a sniper?
Pulling the bolt, a new bullet was loaded. This time it was an elemental bullet (Dark).
Su Xiao's finger rested on the trigger, waiting for the opportunity in Lao Yan's mouth.
"Smoke swirling."
Lao Yan, who was rushing forward, stretched his hands, and a web-like smoke appeared between his hands.
The Ant King, holding his abdomen with one hand, raised his head, his eyes meeting Lao Yan's.
"Not good!"
At this moment, Lao Yan felt the fear of death.
Boom!
The ground within a radius of two hundred meters shook, and the Ant King turned into an afterimage, appearing directly in front of Lao Yan, and a fist blasted toward Lao Yan's face.
"Smoke substitute."
Lao Yan suddenly appeared in the distance, and Shui, who was stunned, appeared in front of the Ant King.
Shui really wanted to greet Lao Yan's ancestors for eighteen generations, but there was no time now. Ice crystals climbed rapidly on her body, and the frost giant in the distance shrank several times.
With a boom, Shui was blasted away by the Ant King's punch. Ice chips splashed, the ice crystals on her body shattered completely, and her back, which took the Ant King's punch, collapsed significantly.
"False."
Lao Yan in the distance slapped the ground with one hand, and a cloud of smoke appeared on Shui's body. Shui's collapsed back recovered rapidly.
Was Lao Yan's previous move trying to kill Shui? Not really. He knew clearly that Shui could withstand that punch from the Ant King, and he could only swap with Shui. If it were Lao Yan who took that punch from the Ant King, he would definitely die.
Just as Shui fell to the ground, she jumped up from the ground, staring at Lao Yan not far away, and sighed helplessly after a while.
"Too early."
Shui gave Lao Yan the middle finger. Lao Yan spread his hands, indicating this was a helpless choice; otherwise, he would be hammered to death by the Ant King.
"Two, is the cooperation continuing? If not, the difficulty of besieging the Ant King next time will increase by at least several times. After killing the Ant King, we want half of the heart."
Lao Yan's index finger pressed on the wireless headset.
"Continuing."
Chen's voice came from the headset.
"It doesn't matter to me."
Su Xiao also spoke. From the beginning of the battle, he noticed that Lao Yan and Shui were not right. As the battle continued, that strange feeling became stronger and stronger, because the two of them were a bit too tacit in their cooperation.
According to common sense, the four were cooperating for the first time. Even if Lao Yan, Shui, and Chen had joined forces to deal with Pouf, the cooperation between Lao Yan and Shui was too tacit.
Just now, Lao Yan clarified his relationship with Shui. They had started cooperating three derivative worlds ago and signed a temporary team contract.
The binding force of this kind of contract was not strong, and it was a different nature from an adventure group, but it could also ensure that Shui and Lao Yan wouldn't have internal strife.
"Then continue. According to the information I obtained, the Ant King will become stronger the more he fights. The best way is to kill him before he knows how to fight. Shui, let the frost giant go up, I'll help it make armor."
Lao Yan began to cooperate with Shui openly.
Boom, boom...
The roaring sound continued. It was the Chairman and the Ant King fighting into a ball. Although the Chairman was not the Ant King's opponent, there was no problem dragging the Ant King for a short time.
Lao Yan and Shui began to retreat. The frost giant summoned by Shui restored its original size. Not only that, it was also wrapped in a layer of gray armor and held two heavy hammers.
Shui sat on the ground, hanging her head. She had transmitted her consciousness to the frost giant's body, which could control it more precisely.
Lao Yan stood beside Shui, one to protect Shui's main body, and the other to help the frost giant buff its state, improving its strength, speed, etc.
The Ant King was indeed becoming stronger the more he fought, as Lao Yan said. At first, he could only resist the Chairman's attack, but now he had learned to release Nen and use Nen to perceive the enemy's attack instead of capturing it with his sight. This was something he learned from the Chairman three minutes ago.
Pfft.
The Ant King's palm blade stabbed forward, and one of the Chairman's arms was stabbed off.
The frost giant rushed forward. It stepped on the ground, and a cold pulse spread.
Compared to the threat of the Chairman and the frost giant, the Ant King's attention had always been on the east side, which was the direction where Chen was.
Chen's index finger reached forward, and his fingertips gathered terrifyingly dense dark elements. This move was called "Destruction Finger," one of Chen's five big moves. ===== CHAPTER 1144 =====
