100: Is it appropriate for you two to hide behind me?
"Who are you!"
A Sixth-Rank Esper from this side questioned first.
It was originally a guaranteed win; they could have taken this place in one go, but because of this person, it all fell through at the last moment!
How could he not be angry?
Su Chen said proudly, "Me?
I am the Vice President of the Ability Association, Xu Jianyi!"
Beside him, Xu Jianyi was so angry he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. If you're Xu Jianyi, then who am I!
Is it appropriate for you to use my name right in front of me!
Not only could Xu Jianyi not stand it, but even this Sixth-Rank Protector of the Heavenly Fiend Cult couldn't listen to it anymore.
"Do you take me for a blind man? This white-bearded old man is Xu Jianyi!"
Su Chen remained proud: "I do not change my name or surname; I am Xu Jianyi, Vice President of the Ability Association."
Xu Jianyi said coldly:
"Friend, allow me to say a word. I am the genuine, one-and-only Xu Jianyi, Vice President of the Ability Association."
"The same name? What a coincidence."
What kind of coincidence is that! There is only one Xu Jianyi in the Ability Association.
The man from the military, Zhang Tingrui, sent a voice transmission: "Don't be angry. This person might have some difficulties and doesn't want to reveal his name.
At least he's on our side; we don't need to be like this."
"I'll just pretend you didn't say what you just said."
Su Chen felt helpless. When I was donating supplies, you said to use your name if anything happened. Now you're blaming me? Believe it or not, I could insta-kill you in one move.
Despite his dissatisfaction with this person using his name, Xu Jianyi still asked:
"Friend, your Earth Element Ability is at a disadvantage in aerial combat, so be careful.
This person is a Sixth-Rank Wind Element; he's very difficult to deal with."
As he spoke, Xu Jianyi's movements slowed, and the Sixth-Rank Protector from the Heavenly Fiend Cult also rushed in front of Su Chen.
Looking at the Sixth-Rank Wind Element Ability User before him, Su Chen became slightly serious.
This was the strongest person he had ever fought in both his past and present lives.
He had to go all out.
He had also underestimated the speed of a Sixth-Rank Esper; the man arrived before him in just an instant, but he reacted quickly.
He used his Magnetism Power, using a move called Shinra to blast the opponent away, narrowly avoiding the crisis of being killed in one strike.
The opponent clearly had no intention of wasting words, launching several surprise attacks, but Su Chen used Shinra to blast him away each time.
Being blasted away once again, the Protector was slightly surprised.
He was curious about what this person's Ability was; every time he got close, he felt an invisible pushing force.
And that was with him dodging; if he were truly pinned by that invisible field, he would have ended up with minor injuries at the very least.
After several consecutive attacks, Su Chen slowly adapted to the opponent's speed, finally getting a chance to counterattack.
Otherwise, if things continued to wear on like this, he wouldn't have the slightest chance of winning.
Since the opponent had the advantage in speed, Su Chen thought about it and decided to use the Rock Iron Cannon to attack.
The most common C-rank technique.
Killing isn't determined by the rank of the technique; as long as it achieves the goal, any technique is a good technique.
This move was fast and had great single-target lethality, making it perfect for dealing with this type of Ability User.
The Rock Iron Cannon slowly condensed in front of his palm.
To be safe, he only condensed a single drill-shaped Rock Iron Cannon.
In terms of speed, the Rock Iron Cannon was not as fast as the Lightning Element, but it was much more powerful. Combined with Wind-Breath Techniques to compensate for its weaknesses, its power was only stronger, not weaker.
Charging up, he simultaneously used his Wind Element Ability to boost the speed. Gale winds rapidly swirled around the Rock Iron Cannon, putting it into a high-speed rotating state.
His 100% proficiency allowed him to do this very well.
He wasn't sure how strong a Sixth-Rank Esper's Spirit Power Armor defense was, so he didn't hold back with this move.
Swoosh!
The moment it fired, the massive recoil knocked Su Chen back several meters. If he hadn't been drinking potions to improve himself every day, that recoil alone could have killed him.
Although he managed to stabilize himself, he was also significantly injured.
He ignored his injuries and turned to look at the Wind Element Ability User.
He saw that the man had already been split in two.
A fifty-centimeter circular hole had been pierced through his upper abdomen, and he was looking at Su Chen with an expression of disbelief.
The Sixth-Rank Protector hadn't expected it to be so fast—so fast that even a Sixth-Rank speed-type Ability User like him couldn't react.
With a trace of unwillingness, his broken body fell toward the ground as his last shred of consciousness dissipated.
A Sixth-Rank Esper... just like that, he's gone?
Insta-killed by me?
Looking at the falling remains, a trace of contempt appeared at the corner of Su Chen's mouth.
Is this a Sixth-Rank?
He couldn't even withstand one of my moves. Well, I did slightly underestimate the power of 100% proficiency.
The recoil alone could injure me; it would be a joke if it didn't insta-kill you.
If one move takes out one Sixth-Rank, then the other five are no big deal either, right?
Su Chen didn't stop, condensing another move.
Remembering how he was injured by the recoil just now, he reduced the power slightly and first practiced on a Fifth-Rank Esper.
Although Xu Jianyi was shocked, he immediately understood what was happening as he watched the fake Xu Jianyi's actions.
He blocked the few people who wanted to flee.
This was an opportunity. If they could take them out now, they could reverse the defeat and free up time to find a way to break the formation.
Swoosh!
A cloud of blood mist exploded in the air as a Fifth-Rank from the Heavenly Fiend Cult was declared dead.
It was so fast they couldn't dodge at all. With one hit successful, the other four from the Heavenly Fiend Cult lost their Battle Intent and turned to flee.
But this time, Xu Jianyi and the other man blocked them firmly, not letting them succeed.
Swoosh!
Another cloud of blood mist exploded... After firing four Rock Cannonballs in a row, Su Chen finally stopped.
This move was too powerful, and he himself was left dazed and disoriented by the recoil of the Rock Iron Cannon.
He felt as if his internal organs had shifted, and his arms were gorged with blood, nearly losing all sensation.
He reduced the power each time, but the force was still too great.
Drinking a healing potion, he finally felt the injuries on his body ease slightly.
He began condensing the Rock Iron Cannon for an attack again.
The last remaining Sixth-Rank was already panicking because this move was so fast he couldn't dodge it at all!
And now, being besieged by two Sixth-Ranks, he had nowhere to run.
"Let me go, or don't blame me for dragging you down with me!"
The two men didn't compromise in the slightest at his warning. The last member of the Heavenly Fiend Cult knew he was finished.
He gritted his teeth and, with a ruthless heart, crushed a bead on his chest.
A cloud of black mist instantly emerged, enveloping the man from the Heavenly Fiend Cult.
Xu Jianyi immediately realized something was wrong:
"Dodge!"
But they were still a step too slow; the powerful aura still injured them.
Even Su Chen, who was far away, was affected.
He only felt a red light suddenly appear in front of him, which then dissipated.
Thinking of something, he opened the System panel; the passive effect of the seven star dragon abyss sword had disappeared and needed to be triggered again.
My god?
I'm over two hundred meters away from you, and you still managed to break my passive?
This move was too fast; there was no time to react.
If it weren't for this passive, he would likely be a dead man right now.
He looked at the semi-transparent phantom in front of him, then at Xu Jianyi and the other man, who were already heavily injured and standing behind him.
Wait... I just came over to provide support. Is it appropriate for you two main forces to hide behind me?
Under normal circumstances, shouldn't you be protecting me from the front and covering my escape?
I'm just here for support as a backup; I'm only a Second-Rank, you two Sixth-Rank Seniors!
