Chapter 113: Sword Qi, This Is Sword Qi!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At this moment, Duan Mei was truly at a loss for how to react.
Duan Mei looked blankly at the robust man beside her, unable to find the right words to say…
Until Lu Ming calmly spoke up, “This thing is a little scary. My strike didn’t have the desired effect.”
Initially, Lu Ming thought that with his body strength surpa.s.sing that of a Level 7 creature, it should not be a problem for him to cut down a Level 5 small fry with a single slash, right?
But he had not expected that the vitality of this Flesh Mountain was so terrifying.
Even with its face sliced off, it seemed like it was still alive and moving.
“But it’s also possible that 1 aimed poorly…”
It seemed that he only injured its face but did not hit its critical brain.
However, this was not important.
Seeing the enraged Flesh Mountain rushing towards them, Lu Ming raised his sword again.
Once more, he held it level… lift…
And then, he slashed with all his might!
This time, Duan Mei saw it clearly.
The sword slashed out at an extremely fast speed, easily breaking through the speed of sound.
After breaking through the speed of sound, the rippie-like shockwave surged forward and instantly sliced through the Flesh Mountain’s supporting leg.
In fact, the ripple-like shockwave did not lose its momentum. After cutting through the Flesh Mountain, it smashed into a building behind it. Needless to say, the outcome of the building was obvious. It was reduced to ruins which was the only thing it could do in response.
After just one second of that strike….
With a loud “bang”, the Flesh Mountain’s height significantly decreased.
Its lower leg had been severed, revealing mangled flesh and a pale shinbone.
With its foot detached and unable to support its body, it could only remain standing with its shinbone.
But given the Flesh Mountain’s size, relying solely on its shinbone for support was not sustainable..
Just as it was about to collapse…
Lu Ming slashed again.
There was a tearing sound.
Amputation below the knee.
The Flesh Mountain became shorter again…
Lu Ming slashed again…
The cascading shockwaves were consecutively unleashed, and it consumed a lot of Lu Ming’s energy.
His shoulders, arms, and wrists all bore tremendous burden, and even Lu Ming felt a slight tingling sensation.
It was not until the numbness reached a certain level that Lu Ming finally stopped.
The tragic face of the Flesh Mountain was erected on the ground. Only its head was still “standing” in place.
“It should be dead this time.”
Lu Ming leaned on his battle sword and muttered.
It was common sense to destroy the heads of zombies.
But the Flesh Mountain was too big for Lu Ming to reach its head when it stood up straight.
So, he decided to simply amputate everything below the head. It seemed to have a similar effect to beheading.
After confirming that the Flesh Mountain was completely dead, Lu Ming heaved a sigh of relief and turned to look at the dumbfounded Duan Mei.
“Um, can I trouble you with something?”
Duan Mei, “Yes.”
“Zombie crystals, help me watch over the zombie crystals. These are my spoils of war.”
Duan Mei:”…”
Who would dare to s.n.a.t.c.h your things?
Let me ask, after witnessing all of this, who would dare to s.n.a.t.c.h your things!!?
With the trivial matters taken care of, Lu Ming had to get down to business.
Hunting.
The helicopter in the sky acted as Lu Ming’s eyes, helping him locate the
Six-Legged Wolf Bears.
There was another loud “boom.”
Duan Mei shuddered.
She saw the strong man jump up with a flick of his feet, covering an unknown distance…
In midair, the man stepped on the air as if he were a deity, disappearing into the distance in the blink of an eye.
Duan Mei felt that her common sense was being challenged.
“You can fly too!?”
She could not help but ask, but unexpectedly, her muttering received a response.
“Yes, Brother Lu should be able to fly.”
Turning her head towards the source of the voice, she saw Bai Tianyu leading a team over.
Duan Mei glanced at Bai Tianyu and his team before looking back to the direction where Lu Ming had disappeared.
Until Bai Tianyu stood beside Duan Mei.
“It’s not a superpower, just pure physical strength.”
“Manga. Have you read the manga, ‘One Piece’? There’s a move called ‘Marine Eight Styles’…”
“It’s Marine Six Techniques…”
“That’s not important. What’s important is the principle. By exerting an explosive force to step on the air, a counterforce is generated, supporting human movement in the air. Well, it’s something like that.”
As he spoke, Bai Tianyu fell silent.
Because no matter how he thought about it… Lu Ming’s performance was too unbelievable.
“And Sword Qi! That’s Sword Qi, right? That must be Sword Qi!!”
Another person pointed at the Flesh Mountain’s corpse and exclaimed.
They had also witnessed the entire process of Lu Ming slaughtering the Flesh Mountain.
After some thought, Bai Tianyu said, “The principle is the same as walking in the air.”
“By swinging the sword at an extremely fast speed, it disrupts the sound barrier to harm the enemy. The lethality depends on the speed of the sword swing. Of course, it also requires some subtle vibrations so that the lethality of the Sword Qi will be higher…”
As he spoke, Bai Tianyu fell silent again.
Why could he not grasp such a simple principle?
After thinking about it, he could only use the excuse of insufficient strength.
After rambling on for a while, Duan Mei finally seemed to snap out of it.
She pointed at Lu Ming in confusion.
“Who is this…?”
At the side, one of her subordinates immediately said, “Nuclear weapon, he’s the nuclear weapon from the official side!”
Bai Tianyu could not help but roll his eyes.
Why are you so naive? You believe whatever 1 say!
Then, he said, “Lu Ming, we all call him Brother Lu. He’s the strongest Awakened from our official side.”
After a brief silence, Duan Mei asked again, “Was he the one who crushed Chang Yi?”
Initially, Duan Mei did not believe that Chang Yi had been crushed to death.
Even if the officials had the ability to kill Chang Yi, they would have to go through a lot of trouble and require a lot of effort. Duan Mei did not believe what Gao Junyi had once said about “crushing Chang Yi like an ant.”
However, after seeing Brother Lu, Duan Mei believed it.
Seeing Bai Tianyu nodding, Duan Mei took a deep breath and calmed down. Then, she said, “Chang Yi’s death is not unjust.”
After giving everyone a little shock, Lu Ming immediately began his hunting journey.
Those Six-Legged Wolf Bears were really sharp.
When they saw the downfall of the Flesh mountain, they immediately started running for their lives.
But could they outrun Lu Ming?
Clearly not.
He caught up to them one by one and slaughtered them. There was no need to elaborate on the process. It was really no different from stepping on ants.
In short, after a busy period, all twenty-three Six-Legged Wolf Bears perished, and Lu Ming obtained a large amount of exotic beast meat.
“I wonder if it tastes good….”
With such thoughts swirling in his mind, the helicopter descended from the sky and landed in the open s.p.a.ce beside Lu Ming.
Bai Tianyu, Duan Mei, and the others also hurried over.
Seeing the dozens of people staring at him made Lu Ming feel a little uncomfortable.
Zhang Chengcheng helped Lu Ming out of the situation, and spoke up, “We’ve packed up the Zombie Crystals and meat. These are all Brother Lu’s things, and we can’t take even a little bit. Do you understand?”
Lu Ming quickly waved his hand, “There’s no need to be so strict. Everyone should try some of the meat.”
Zhang Chengcheng quickly nodded, “Then we’ll do as Brother Lu says.”
Afterward, Lu Ming boarded the helicopter, ready to go home and sleep..
