Chapter 276: Kun Wings
The battle began.
Mu was the best of the younger generation among the survivors of the Lome race.
When each Lomerian was born, a drop of their blood would be placed onto the [Ancestral Stone], the [Stone of Nomological Law of Gravity].
If the [Stone of Nomological Law of Gravity] lit up, that Lomerian was recognized as having the potential to become a warrior of the Lome race.
Once they reached adulthood, they could obtain power from the [Stone of Nomological Law of Gravity] to control gravity.
In this battle, Mu"s would drag the contest for ten minutes before admitting defeat.
He knew that he wouldn"t be strong enough to defeat the Demon Ox warrior.
Hence, the moment the battle started, he used his ability to exert ten times the gravity on the enemy.
The Demon Ox warrior instantly felt like his body was filled with lead.
He was not agile to begin with, and his body was bulky. Now, with ten times the gravitational force, it was really difficult for him to move.
However, the Demon Ox warrior didn"t seem phased. It was as if he had expected this to happen.
"Lomerians, do you think we"re unprepared? You"re too naive." Aatrox laughed.
With that, the Demon Ox warrior unhurriedly took out a box.
The square box was very ordinary with a b.u.t.ton on it.
This was an anti-gravity device.
When chasing the Lomerians, they had suffered because of the Lomerian"s ability to control gravity.
Therefore, they spent a lot of money to purchase anti-gravity devices.
The Demon Ox warrior pressed the b.u.t.ton and activated the anti-gravity device.
In the next second, the weight on the Demon Ox warrior disappeared.
Mu"s expression changed. He couldn"t help but be shocked but immediately calmed down.
He used his ability to reduce his own gravity and immediately consumed the [Wind Spirit Pill] from w.a.n.g Zhixing.
At once, his speed became extremely fast. He covered ten thousand meters per second.
Although there were restrictions set on the battle s.p.a.ce, the c.u.mbersome Demon Ox warrior probably couldn"t even touch the corner of Mu"s clothes.
However, the Demon Ox warrior refused to accept it. He knew that he wasn"t as fast, but he still wanted to try.
Just like that, a battle became a cat-and-mouse game.
Five minutes pa.s.sed, but the Demon Ox warrior had gotten nowhere.
Presently, he was extremely furious. He roared to vent his anger, but it proved to be useless.
After venting, he still refused to give up and went after Mu again.
"Good, well done! That"s the way, drag it out until you admit defeat."
The spectating Elder Tarot and company were delighted.
"Peak Master w.a.n.g, it looks like the items you"ve given him are going to be wasted.
"However, I still have to specially thank you," Elder Tarot said to w.a.n.g Zhixing.
w.a.n.g Zhixing"s expression did not relax in the slightest.
He asked, "Elder Tarot, I don"t think this battle is that simple."
Elder Tarot frowned, and the smile on his face disappeared.
"Peak Master w.a.n.g, did you discover something?"
w.a.n.g Zhixing frowned as he stared at the pursuing figure.
"Elder Tarot, look at this Demon Ox Warrior. Why is he still chasing after Mu when he"s so much slower? It doesn"t make sense."
Elder Tarot replied, "Peak Master w.a.n.g, the Demon Ox Clan is famous for its stubbornness. They are one-track-minded.
"Especially after being agitated, he would have lost his mind.
"So it"s normal for him to act like this."
However, w.a.n.g Zhixing thought otherwise. His intuition told him that the Demon Ox warrior"s actions were strange as if he was planning something.
"Let"s wait and see! I hope nothing unexpected happens. I hope everything is just my imagination." w.a.n.g Zhixing sighed.
Time ticked by.
The timer showed that more than eight minutes had pa.s.sed since the battle began.
The Demon Ox warrior was still chasing after Mu.
Mu was very relaxed. He did not give the warrior any chance at all. He even used words to provoke and mock him.
The Demon Ox warrior was furious. He kept on snarling, but that was all he could do.
Soon, there was less than a minute left.
At the 10 minute mark, Mu could then admit defeat.
He was also aware that his attacks would not cause much damage to the Demon Ox warrior. Moreover, as the battle progressed, his stamina was getting depleted.
If he didn"t have enough stamina, he wouldn"t maintain his current high speed.
Even though the Demon Ox Clan had a bulky physique, they were still very fast for ordinary people.
Therefore, Mu did not dare to be careless. Once the time was up, he would admit defeat immediately.
Another half a minute pa.s.sed.
Mu was keeping track of the time and knew that it was almost over.
He looked at his camp and showed a smile that hadn"t been seen for a long time.
But at this moment, the Demon Ox warrior stopped.
The furious expression on his face disappeared and was replaced with a disturbingly sinister smile.
He took out a gun-shaped syringe and gave his own arm a shot.
The next moment, a pair of huge wings appeared on his back.
Those wings looked very strange. They seemed like fins.
When Elder Tarot saw the change in the Demon Ox warrior, his expression froze.
"It"s over, it"s over…"
Obviously, he knew about these wings.
w.a.n.g Zhixing hurriedly asked, "Elder Tarot, what sort of wings are these?"
"Kun wings." Elder Tarot said blankly.
Kun wings???
This was the first time w.a.n.g Zhixing had heard of it.
Presently, on the battlefield, the Demon Ox warrior was grinning widely as he flapped his wings.
He disappeared from the spot and reappeared behind Mu.
Mu did not react at all.
The Demon Ox warrior seized the opportunity and gripped Mu in his hand.
"Kid, weren"t you very arrogant just now? Why don"t you keep running!
"Did you really think that I wouldn"t be able to keep up to you? It was all a pretense to play with you, fool! "
The Demon Ox race warrior laughed loudly. He exerted some force, and the sound of bones cracking could be heard.
Mu spat out a large mouthful of blood. The intense pain made his face turn incomparably pale, but he did not utter a sound.
He knew that as long as he did, the other party would laugh even more happily.
As a warrior of the Lome race, even if he had to die, he had to do so with dignity.
There were less than ten seconds left.
At the last second, the Demon Ox warrior clenched his fist hard, and Mu"s body disappeared like a fragile tomato.
The first battle ended with Mu"s miserable death.
Elder Tarot"s face was filled with grief.
He had never imagined that Aatrox and company would have such a trick up their sleeves.
w.a.n.g Zhixing and company looked miserable as well.
If everyone on the other side was equipped with the [Kun Wings], then all those who were to admit defeat would be dying in vain.
At this moment, Aatrox flew over with mocking laughter.
"Tarot, I"m sorry. My brother in my team was a little too heavy-handed. He didn"t leave a complete corpse for your people.
"However, I guarantee that such a situation will not occur in the later battles. A relatively intact corpse will definitely be left behind."
Elder Tarot looked murderously at Aatrox. He wished he could avenge his clansmen.
Meanwhile, Aatrox completely disregarded Tarot.
"Tarot, the first match is over. Who are you planning to send for the second match?"
Elder Tarot did not reply.
w.a.n.g Zhixing stepped forward and looked at Aatrox. He said in the universal language, "I"ll be next!"
