Bai Ye looked at the blood on the ground and mocked again, "You're about to die!"
Yin Hu gritted his teeth and remained silent, knowing that Bai Ye was deliberately trying to affect his emotions. The best course of action was to not respond, as if he had heard nothing.
Bang!
Enduring the bone-chilling cold that coursed through his body, Yin Hu leaped towards Bai Ye again, intending to kill him.
However, the moment he reached Bai Ye, Tyrannomon suddenly twisted its body, and its massive tail whipped towards Yin Hu.
Bang!
Yin Hu raised his mechanical arm, taking the brunt of Tyrannomon's tail strike, and then…
A mechanical whirring sound suddenly rang out. Blades sprang from the edge of the mechanical arm.
*Puff!*
The tail of Tyrannomon was cut, and blood splattered onto the ground.
Bai Ye's pupils contracted. Seeing Tyrannomon retreat in pain, his expression darkened.
"It seems you're eager to die!" Bai Ye took a deep breath and charged forward, "I'll grant you your wish!"
Bai Ye bent his legs slightly and rushed forward, heading straight for Yin Hu.
As he ran, Bai Ye took out a deck of playing cards and scattered them forward. Countless cards flew into the air, drifting apart.
But in the next instant, his Paper God ability activated. The playing cards suddenly hovered in the air, then, like sharp blades, they continuously rained down.
Yin Hu quickly brought his mechanical arm in front of him. A circle of metal shards suddenly shot out from his arm, forming a round shield.
Clang, clang, clang…
The playing cards continuously struck the shield, making crisp sounds.
Then…
Bai Ye leaped up and stomped hard on the shield, forcing Yin Hu backward.
Yin Hu stabilized himself and immediately raised his mechanical arm, intending to fire. However, at this moment, a strange noise came from the mechanical arm. After a tremor, it failed to emit the expected energy orb.
"I see…" Bai Ye chuckled, "This is a defective product, isn't it? Let me guess, this should be a complete set of mechanical armor, but you only managed to get one arm?"
Yin Hu's expression turned grim. Bai Ye knew he had guessed correctly.
Advanced futuristic weapons were not easily obtainable. While not entirely hopeless, it was difficult, not just because their origin was unknown, but also due to the danger, making people hesitant to act.
However, if it was a defective product, that was a different story. Of course, even obtaining a defective product was quite an achievement. But since it was incomplete, it naturally had flaws.
So…
Strike while the iron is hot!
Bai Ye gave Tyrannomon a knowing glance.
Tyrannomon was indeed intelligent. A mere exchange of glances told Bai Ye what he needed it to do.
Roar!
The next moment, Tyrannomon raised its head and let out a long roar. From its gaping maw, a large burst of fire suddenly appeared.
Super Flame!
Accompanying Tyrannomon's roar, a vast expanse of flames was spewed out, instantly forming a sea of fire that surged forward. The rolling flames were like waves, one after another, overlapping endlessly.
Yin Hu dared not confront it directly. Fire was not something that could be blocked with a mere shield.
But as Yin Hu tried to retreat from the area covered by the flames…
"Fire Curse!"
Bai Ye formed a Taoist talisman in his hand and pressed it forward in the air. Immediately…
Boom!
The flames within the sea of fire exploded. The immense blast wave sent Yin Hu flying backward, crashing heavily onto the ground.
Bai Ye seized the opportunity and swiftly attacked, closing in on Yin Hu.
Yin Hu quickly raised his shield.
Clang!
Bai Ye brought down a palm strike directly onto the shield.
Feeling the force transmitted through the shield, Yin Hu breathed a sigh of relief. In terms of strength, he didn't fear Bai Ye at all. Even with Bai Ye's T-virus-enhanced body, Yin Hu found it lacking.
What Yin Hu feared was the chilling aura of the Xuan Ming Divine Palm. Once it entered the body, it was incredibly painful. At this moment, Yin Hu felt as if his internal organs were frozen, causing immense agony.
But the shield blocked Bai Ye's palm. As long as their bodies didn't directly touch…
"You thought that by not being touched, you could avoid the chilling aura entering your body?"
Bai Ye's voice echoed leisurely.
Yin Hu was instantly startled, then he looked at his shield. Frost had coated its surface. Immediately, a wisp of chilling air bypassed the shield and wrapped around Yin Hu's arm.
In an instant, Yin Hu's arm turned purplish-blue, showing signs of frostbite.
"Ugh…"
Feeling the pain, Yin Hu retreated continuously, clutching his elbow, trying to prevent the cold from spreading further upward.
However, at this very moment…
*Puff!*
A flash of silver sword light suddenly appeared behind Yin Hu and slashed down towards him.
Accompanied by Yin Hu's scream, a sound of tearing flesh echoed as his mechanical-armored arm flew into the air.
Bai Ye casually extended his hand, and the Frost Condensing Sword flew back to his side.
"Alright!" Bai Ye said to Yin Hu, "You have no last resort left now, do you?"
Yin Hu gritted his teeth, panting heavily against the wall behind him.
"It seems you're truly out of moves." Bai Ye gripped the Frost Condensing Sword and said, "Then die!"
*Puff!*
Bai Ye swept the Frost Condensing Sword forward with force, grazing Yin Hu's neck and leaving a trail of blood.
The next moment, Bai Ye turned and walked away.
Yin Hu's body slid slowly to the ground along the wall. Simultaneously, his ability deactivated, and his robust physique rapidly shriveled, quickly reverting to his normal human form, and then…
He lost all signs of life!
1:41 AM, Yin Hu, deceased!
…
Having killed Yin Hu, only six participants remained out of the original twelve in the Great Battle. It was halfway to the end.
However, this was not what made Bai Ye happiest. What made him happier was…
"You have killed a participant (Ability World)."
"You have obtained a fragment of the God Stone."
Finally, a God Stone fragment!
Those who participated in the Great Battle were the top twelve in completing the restricted zone missions. This meant that every participant had a God Stone fragment.
And then…
You Chicken, Si Snake, Wei Sheep…
He had killed three people, yet he hadn't obtained a single God Stone fragment. Bai Ye was on the verge of a breakdown. Although his luck with the gacha machine today was good, it couldn't be at the expense of all his other luck!
Fortunately, Yin Hu was supportive and finally allowed Bai Ye to see a God Stone fragment.
"I hope the next opponents will be just as supportive."
Bai Ye thought with delight, but at this moment…
Boom!
Suddenly, in the quiet night, a deafening roar erupted.
