Chapter 728

This move was developed by Su Xiao after fighting the Orphan of Resentment, Sius. It belonged to the trial stage and had many shortcomings.

Su Xiao had discovered earlier that the Counter-Attack Shield was very good for defending against sharp weapons, but if it were used to deal with blunt strikes or collisions, it was a bit chicken-rib, not only causing him to be shaken but also increasing the area where he was attacked.

So Su Xiao developed this move, using energy shields to form a layer of exoskeleton outside the body for cushioning. This kind of exoskeleton was not strong, but it could significantly relieve the impact force when it shattered.

Su Xiao took a deep breath, Checking Zhan Long Shan in his hand reversed, and he slashed back at Die who was holding him tightly.

Pfft.

Blood splashed, and a wound was scratched on Die's side waist. This wound was not shallow. Die let out a muffled groan, and her body began to tremble.

The corner of Su Xiao's mouth curled up. It was the same as he guessed. The one that defended his slash earlier was not Nen energy, but equipment or props.

If Die could defend against Su Xiao's slash with Nen energy, her Nen ability would be too exaggerated, and she was not an Enhancer, but a Specialist.

Being scratched by Su Xiao, Die immediately loosened her arms and fiercely kneed Su Xiao's lower back.

Su Xiao was pushed forward a few steps by this knee strike. He covered his lower back with his hand. This strike was strong enough, and it hit his kidney.

Die's body arched, and she sprang up from the ground like a carp. Su Xiao, holding his lower back, stepped forward with his sword.

Ding, boom!

Mud splashed, and bursts of roaring sounds spread. The two fought into a ball.

Five minutes later.

Bang.

Su Xiao was kicked back a few steps by Die. Warm blood dripped from his chin. Two minutes ago, his left arm was touched by that kind of heart-shaped Nen energy and had completely lost feeling.

The Qing Gang Ying energy in Su Xiao's body was devouring this peculiar Nen ability. It wouldn't take long to recover. Before that, this arm must not be hit by the enemy, otherwise, it would shatter like ceramic.

Die, a few meters away, was not having a good time either. She was slashed by Su Xiao several times, and her body was twitching slightly, hurting so much that she rolled her eyes.

"Damn energy, simply shameless!"

Die spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva. The seductive feeling from earlier was gone. The current Die was a tomboy, a tomboy with eight-pack abs on her lower abdomen. However, after adding Die's appearance to this physique, a unique charm appeared. This was a tomboy whose melee ability was not weaker than Su Xiao's.

Checking Zhan Long Shan danced a sword flower in Su Xiao's hand. He no longer looked at Die as a charm-specialized contractor.

After preliminary engagement, Su Xiao found that Die might be an auxiliary contractor. She had control ability, tracking ability, and the ability to weaken the enemy's defense.

Even if the enemy was an auxiliary, this was a Third Tier top-tier auxiliary. Not to mention the gap in attributes and skills, just the crushing in terms of equipment was enough for Su Xiao to drink a pot.

Die's attributes and skills were suppressed, but the equipment she wore was not suppressed. This was also the reason why she could engage in melee combat with Su Xiao.

Moreover, Die, as a contractor who had been in the Reincarnation Paradise for a long time, was very rich in combat experience.

Even so, Su Xiao still felt that he could defeat the enemy in front of him. The reason was that this tomboy was actually a bit afraid of pain. That's right, she was afraid of pain.

Using Su Xiao as a metaphor, he often engaged in melee combat with enemies. Injuries were a common occurrence, and broken hands and feet were also common. Under such arduous tempering, his pain tolerance was significantly improved.

Die was different. She was the number one controller of the Blood Gate Adventure Group. She had many teammates to protect her during battle. Her combat experience mostly came from the arena, while Su Xiao fought his way out in the flesh and blood.

"Pain can stimulate a person's ferocity and warn the brain where the body has problems. It seems you are not used to it."

Su Xiao approached Die slowly. Die subconsciously took a step back. After discovering her retreating action, Die gritted her teeth, very unwilling.

"Only perverts would enjoy the feeling of pain, you pervert."

"Thanks for the compliment, but I don't enjoy the feeling of pain."

Su Xiao rushed toward Die aggressively. Die, who was slashed several times, murmured "just a Second Tier weak chicken" and then rushed forward.

Sword glow crisscrossed. Because she was slashed several times, Die began to lean toward defense.

Ding.

The long sword slashed on Die's forearm. The touch from the sword didn't feel like slashing on a human body, but more like slashing on some invisible or transparent armor.

Su Xiao's eyes narrowed. After dodging the beautiful leg Die kicked, he made a move to slash.

If it followed the previous situation, Die would definitely choose to use her body to resist Checking Zhan Long Shan, and then return a kick to Su Xiao. The injuries on Su Xiao's body were all like this.

But this time, when the long sword was about to slash on Die's chest, her pupils constricted, and a layer of golden shield appeared.

Ding.

Checking Zhan Long Shan was blocked by the golden shield. Die's 36D hugged, and while the breast-shaking gave a great benefit, Die retreated a few meters.

Su Xiao secretly calculated in his heart. According to the engagement situation, Die should have a piece of equipment that could automatically generate invisible armor. The defense of that kind of invisible armor was extremely strong, able to block Checking Zhan Long Shan with sharpness +32. One could see how strong its defense was.

This kind of invisible armor would enter a gap period of 3 to 5 seconds every 60 seconds or so. The several slashes Die received earlier were all in this gap period.

The troublesome thing was that Die had a second shield-type equipment. The shield generated by the second equipment was visible, golden, and used once every 8 to 10 minutes, each time lasting 2 seconds.

Not only that, Die also had a piece of equipment that could temporarily increase Strength and Agility attributes. Earlier, he received a back-throw from the other party, which was because of the bonus effect of that piece of equipment. In those ten seconds, Die's Strength attribute was at least 5 to 10 points higher than Su Xiao's.

After some analysis, Su Xiao classified Die as having a large number of high-grade equipment, but her attributes and skills were suppressed, similar to him.

Fortunately, Su Xiao could immunize Die's charm control, otherwise he would have been defeated long ago.

Thinking of this, Su Xiao couldn't help but feel lucky. Fortunately, the other party didn't gather all three. An auxiliary was so tricky. How strong would Huang Fen, as the main combat power, be? At least it wasn't something Su Xiao could deal with now, even if the other party's strength was suppressed.

Su Xiao approached Die calmly, slashing with his long sword continuously, leaving sword marks in the air, which disappeared in a flash.

After fighting for another two minutes, a ray of light emerged from the necklace on Die's neck, and her speed suddenly soared. It was that piece of equipment that increased Strength and Agility.

Here it comes!

Su Xiao secretly guarded, and at the same time, this was an opportunity. Die's equipment that released the golden shield had entered the cooldown phase, while that kind of invisible shield could last for 10 seconds.

With a whoosh, Die disappeared before Su Xiao's eyes, her speed so fast that it couldn't be captured by dynamic vision.

Just as Die disappeared, Su Xiao's spine suffered a heavy blow.

"Flower Dance · Romance."

Pink energy spread along with Die's knee strike. Su Xiao spat out a mouthful of blood.

【Warning: You received the control effect of 'Eikma Secret Blade', Strength and Stamina attribute judgment in progress.】

【Stamina attribute judgment in progress... Stamina attribute judgment successful.】

【Strength attribute judgment in progress... Strength attribute judgment failed!】

【You have entered abnormal state: Stun, duration 2 seconds.】

Su Xiao secretly thought it was bad. In the moment before his consciousness blurred, he used all his remaining mana to construct Counter-Attack Shields, and two layers of Counter-Attack Shields formed around him.

Two seconds passed in a flash. When Su Xiao's gaze recovered clarity, severe pain came from his spine behind him, the back of his head suffered a heavy blow, his ears buzzed, and most fatally, his neck was strangled. He already had signs of insufficient blood supply to the brain.

Su Xiao's hand grabbed the arm strangling his neck. At this time, Die had already used her arms to form a guillotine. The possibility of breaking free was not high. In the case of blood being completely blocked, Su Xiao would faint due to insufficient blood supply to the brain within a few seconds.

A smile appeared on Die's face. She seemed to have seen the large amount of benefits Stan gave, and her status in the Blood Gate Adventure Group improved.

Entering the Holy Grail world was a major matter. As long as she did well, even if she acted against Huang Fen's wishes, Stan wouldn't say anything in the end.

Thinking of this, Die's arm strangling Su Xiao's neck tightened. Her delicate cheek pressed against Su Xiao's ear, and Su Xiao could clearly feel the breathing of this woman.

Su Xiao's arm exerted force. Although he couldn't break free from the formed guillotine, he could pull the other party's arm out a little bit. As for why he didn't use his sword to slash the other party, it was because the other party's invisible shield was still there. Slashing at this time didn't make much sense, and he would lose his life because of it.

Su Xiao took a big breath. The severely squeezed arteries and veins appeared with gaps, and a small amount of blood was supplied to the brain.

"31!"

Su Xiao counted silently in his heart. When he counted to 1, he loosened Die's arm and threw Checking Zhan Long Shan from his right hand to his left hand.

Checking Zhan Long Shan reversed in Su Xiao's left hand, slid down, and he grabbed the middle part of Checking Zhan Long Shan. Because his left hand had metal arm guards, the blade didn't cut his hand.

The sharp blade stabbed backward, brushing past Su Xiao's cheek, heading straight for Die's eye socket.

"This is impossible!"

Die's face turned pale. Ignoring strangling Su Xiao to death, she hurriedly loosened her hand and jumped backward. She couldn't figure it out, couldn't figure out how the enemy caught the 4-second gap when her "kinetic armor" disappeared to attack her. Coincidence? Of course not. This was the information Su Xiao obtained after receiving more than a dozen kicks + one back-throw + five knee strikes.

Pfft.

Checking Zhan Long Shan stabbed into Die's eye socket, and Qing Gang Ying energy rushed straight to her brain.

"Ah!!"

Die let out a terrifying scream. Su Xiao ignored it, grabbed Die's collar with his backhand, and continued to stab forward with the long sword.

Slash, the long sword pierced through Die's brain marrow and stabbed out from the top of her head.

Su Xiao's movements didn't stop. He pulled out Checking Zhan Long Shan and slashed at Die's throat with one sword.

Blood splashed several meters away, and more than half of Die's throat was slashed open. She covered her throat with both hands and staggered back a few steps, blood spilling from between her fingers.

The kinetic armor covered Die's whole body again, but unfortunately it was too late. She took out a dark purple potion and poured it into her mouth, but the potion sprayed out from the wound in her throat.

"This... impossible, I actually..."

Die retreated a few steps, her voice even bringing a crying tone. A few seconds later, her body began to lose strength, and she collapsed to the ground with a thud.

【Tip: The Hunter killed a high-tier contractor, Scarlet Card drop rate increased.】

A Scarlet Card fell to the ground. This scene fell into the eyes of the small fat man who was fighting with Brother No-Umbrella. At this time, Brother No-Umbrella had already been beaten black and blue, and the situation was precarious.

"Holy sh*t!"

Looking at Die who had become a corpse, the small fat man was stunned in place.

Bang.

Brother No-Umbrella's sandbag-sized metal gauntlet hammered on the small fat man's face, and the small fat man's nosebleed splashed.
