In terms of effectiveness, Longinus is a sacred relic that surpasses all alchemical weapons; it is not part of the same system as the alchemical weapons of dragons and hybrids.
Unless that important person intervenes, even the boss cannot replicate a weapon with the exact same effect.
After a pause, Mai Shude said softly, "I will try to get your knife back. If I can't get it back, I will compensate you in other ways. You can have whatever you want or do."
The alluring and mature woman exhaled softly, her voice carrying an air of ambiguity.
Chen Motong gritted his teeth. This slut is always thinking of using seduction. How despicable!
Seduction!?
Chen Motong suddenly had an idea and asked with a light laugh, "Have you forgotten that Caesar promised to fund the formation of a group of beautiful girl cosplayers for you?"
If you don't come back soon, Golden Retriever's promise won't be kept.
Gao Kui suddenly slapped his thigh, realizing he had almost forgotten about the group of beautiful female cosplayers.
"Come with me, I'll fund the formation of a group of beautiful female cosplayers for you, and I guarantee that each of them will be featured on the official Comiket booth..."
"But they're not as pretty as mixed-race girls, are they?"
As you know, the cosplay community is very chaotic. Many professional cosplayers have special side jobs and messy private lives. Moreover, they are definitely not as pretty as mixed-race girls.
"If you want to form a group of beautiful female cosplayers, Kassel is practically the only promised land. I don't know where else I could think of so many sexy, beautiful, and innocent girls."
Chen Motong patiently guided them, and Caesar and the others echoed her sentiments.
Gao Kui suddenly realized, "Yes, apart from Kassel, there's nowhere else in the world with so many beautiful young ladies. That's how big the difference in appearance is between mixed-race people and ordinary humans."
Mai Shude's face turned ashen; she hadn't expected Chen Motong to pull this stunt. A beautiful and pure mixed-race cosplayer like her wasn't hard to find if the boss put in the effort.
Firstly, this went against her original intention, and secondly, no matter how flowery her promises were, they were ultimately not as convincing as the beautiful girls in front of her.
"A leader who carries on the past and opens up the future"
Leading us into a new era
Hold high the banner and create the future
Creating the future…
Before we knew it, the song was coming to an end. Apart from the vocal part, there should have been a final instrumental accompaniment, but no one knew where Gao Kui would end the recording.
The rising and falling heartbeats were like drumbeats intertwined, and everyone held their breath, listening to every detail coming from the phone speakers.
Mai Shude was especially nervous, and just as the music was about to end, Gao Kui's stance became a point of contention again.
The music stopped abruptly, like a never-ending river being severed by a giant sword falling from the sky.
No one fired a shot. Caesar, Chu Zihang, and Lancelot sprang into action and charged toward John Wick, who was clearly a master fighter.
Caesar was in the lead, Lancelot was a half step behind, and Chu Zihang followed closely behind.
However, upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that Chu Zihang and Lancelot were not actually "slow"; they were deliberately lagging behind Caesar by half a step or a full step.
Group battles are not simply about rushing in, especially since John Wick's back is to the library. This further reduces the space for attacking him. If everyone rushes in, no one can maneuver properly, and John Wick will be the only one who benefits.
The three-man, semi-segmented attack allowed each player ample room to maneuver, weaving a continuous offensive to overwhelm John Wick in one fell swoop.
There were no drills, not even prior discussion of battle plans or exchange of signals. Yet, when the battle raged, the three of them displayed remarkable tacit understanding.
Like a lion pouncing on its prey, Caesar's azure eyes gleamed with golden light as he gripped the hilt of his knife and swung it toward John Wick's neck.
There were no dazzling moves, just a simple, unadorned slash. The angle of the slash was tricky and ruthless, and the speed of the blade was extremely fast. It can be said that this slash exhausted all of Caesar's strength, skill, and understanding of close combat.
"Qiang!"
John Wick held his knife horizontally in front of him with one hand, effortlessly blocking Caesar's all-out attack. His black pupils turned crimson gold, and his eyes seemed to contain surging molten lava.
What kind of golden eyes were those?
In just a fleeting glance, Caesar felt inexplicably palpitate, his chest tighten, and even his breathing became labored.
The student council president was by no means a coward. There were things in this world that Caesar could fear, but powerful enemies were not among them.
From the moment he joined Kassel, the young master of the noble Gattuso family was prepared to make a heroic sacrifice. If it was an order, if it was a mission, Caesar would not be afraid even if his death was meaningless.
He was confident that he would, like Don Quixote, charge into an invincible enemy without flinching until the very end.
But at this moment, he was still afraid.
It's not psychological, but rather a physiological suppression of bloodline that's hard to control, just like the Saiyans in Dragon Ball, who become weak and powerless as soon as their tails are pinched.
A metallic buzzing sound filled the air as the longsword Jealousy and the hunting knife Dick Tudor sparked rapidly.
John Wick simply stood still, easily parried Caesar's sword strike, and then swung his sword horizontally, sending Caesar flying more than ten meters away.
The lion pouncing on its prey was like a lion crashing head-on into a speeding train, flying backward at an even greater speed and crashing into the crowd.
This is an incredible sight.
Caesar's attack, with its immeasurable kinetic energy, was effortlessly blocked and deflected.
After Caesar came Lancelot. Even as the horrifying sight of Caesar kneeling instantly unfolded before his eyes, Lancelot showed no hesitation. His greatsword, whistling through the air, was already at John Wick's neck.
John Wick took a half step back and tilted his head back slightly, easily dodging Lancelot's slash. Instead of using his sword, he delivered a flying knee strike to Lancelot's abdomen.
"Pfft~"
Blood mixed with bile and stomach acid gushed out, and Lancelot's face instantly changed. His body curled up like a shrimp, and he flew backwards into the crowd like Caesar.
Finally, there was Chu Zihang, cold as ice and snow, like the swordsman Ximen Chuixue, the eternal dream lover of the girls at Shilan Middle School. He was beaten to his knees even faster than the previous two.
Before the legendary demon sword Murasame could even reach John Wick, John Wick, with a flying knee, followed by a scorpion kick, sent him flying into the crowd.
The three masters were instantly defeated.
On the other side, two pretty girls who couldn't stand each other had just started stabbing each other with knives.
A generous gift of fuck crab!
Everyone was stunned, so stunned that they even forgot to attack John Wick, standing there frozen like statues.
This is a battle reminiscent of the film "The Master". If the movie "The Master", starring Liao Fan, were released earlier, the students in Kassel who witnessed all of this would surely have noticed that John Wick's fight against the three masters was almost identical in style to the action scenes in "The Master".
Wonderful?
No, they are all equally "rotten".
Despite being touted for its realistic and exciting action sequences, "The Master" suffers from extremely poor choreography. It lacks both the chivalrous spirit of Yuen Woo-ping and the fluidity and creativity of Jackie Chan's stunt team. The so-called "realism" is also a far cry from the Donnie Yen Stunt Team's style.
The action scenes in that movie were a mishmash of many shortcomings.
The spearman lost to the dual swordsman in the alley; the protagonist's movement speed was like being on double speed compared to others—for every move others made, the protagonist could make two, and it was still turn-based…
It's unrealistic, choppy, and unattractive.
The battle between John Wick, Caesar, and the other two was just like that—extremely illogical.
With a single, effortless swing of his sword, he could send Caesar flying dozens of meters away. His speed was so fast that it was like he was traveling at twice the speed of an A-class hybrid. He could forcibly change his movements and moves regardless of human joints...
Overwhelmingly powerful, the so-called elite hybrids, the strongest hybrids in Kassel, were no match for John Wick.
After repelling the first three attackers, John Wick remained expressionless, flicking his wrist to swing his longsword, Jealousy, and smashing the blade at Gao Kui.
Since it was unclear whether he was friend or foe, and the boss specifically requested him, they simply knocked him unconscious and took him away.
"Qiang!"
"Crack...knock..."
Gao Kui gripped the guns with both hands, using the ebony and ivory crosses to parry John Wick's blows, and incidentally used the momentum of the latter's knife strike to load both guns.
"Bro, I haven't even had a chance to switch sides yet and you've already made your move. Isn't that a bit unsportsmanlike?"
It wasn't exactly a struggle, but it wasn't a trivial matter either. John Wick's strength far surpassed that of Gao Kui, who had completed the Kowloon Trials.
John Wick stared at Gao Kui with his lava-gold eyes, slightly surprised that he had been blocked.
Chapter 107 Blood Origin Imprint
Words of power, the flow of darkness.
His dark pupils turned honey gold, and his invisible domain expanded rapidly. Dozens of turbulent air currents formed around Gao Kui, like snakes slithering through the air, attacking John Wick relentlessly.
Having undergone the trials of the Nine Dragons, Gao Kui's physical strength has increased far beyond that of an A-grade hybrid. With the support of his powerful physique, his instantaneous output ability has also been greatly enhanced.
It has been upgraded from being able to drive only a dozen or so high-speed airflows at a time to being able to drive dozens of airflow channels at a time.
As he activated the power of the Word, Gao Kui slightly flipped his wrist, changing the angle of the ebony gun muzzle, pointing it at John Wick's head, activating one of the alchemical matrices in the ebony, and pulling the trigger.
Angers said that in order to faithfully recreate the effect of Dante's dual pistols in Devil May Cry 3, each of these alchemical pistols is engraved with two alchemical matrices created by the alchemist master.
The first alchemical matrix, once activated, can greatly amplify the power of bullets, raising the power of a single bullet to the level of a high-risk incantation.
The drawback is that the mental energy consumed is equivalent to that of a normal hybrid using a high-risk incantation several times in a short period of time, while it is almost impossible for a normal hybrid to use a high-risk incantation multiple times in a short period of time.
Even if they could manage it, they would quickly faint due to excessive mental exertion.
The second alchemical matrix, once activated, can greatly amplify the pistol's rate of fire and bullet velocity, giving the bullets the penetration power of a sniper rifle and the rate of fire of a submachine gun.
The drawbacks are obvious. As a classic pistol that can only hold 7 or 8 bullets, is it really necessary to increase the rate of fire to the level of a submachine gun?
At this moment, Gao Kui activated the first alchemy matrix.
The specially designed composite metal bullet, along with a burst of high-heat, high-energy flames, shot out of the barrel, transforming into a ferocious dragon of fire that, along with a swirling whirlwind, hurtled towards John Wick.
Without holding back, Gao Kui went all out from the start, unleashing all the firepower he could muster.
Word of Power: Lord Flame.
A scorching, golden torrent surged in John Wick's eyes. Without any chanting, a violent domain instantly opened up, overlapping with the Yin Flow domain unleashed by Gao Kui.
It's somewhat like the Amaterasu, the Mangekyou Sharingan technique from Naruto. High-temperature energy is generated at the point where John Wick's gaze converges, increasing more and more until it reaches its peak in just a moment.
After reaching the peak, there will be regrets.
The extremely compressed high-temperature energy was transformed into endless flames and shockwaves, meeting the oncoming dragon fire projectiles and the frenzied high-speed blades. The three different energies used by the two completed countless battles, collisions and mutual tearing in an instant.
idiot!
Mai Shude's face turned pale with fright. She hadn't expected John Wick and Gao Kui to suddenly start fighting, nor had she expected the two to unleash such powerful firepower in just one exchange.
No longer caring about competing with Chen Motong, Jiu Demai leaped into the distance.
"Lie down quickly!"
