Even though she was severely injured, Lin Sanjiu gathered a surge of energy from somewhere and supported herself to jump up. Even though it was just a simple movement, she felt a sharp pain in her chest, as if she was being torn apart. She felt slightly dizzy for a moment.
He blinked his eyes hard, and King Henry's blurry appearance became clear in his vision again.
"How did you …"
Lin Sanjiu's question was stuck in her throat. For a moment, she didn't even know what question she wanted to ask.
King Henry did not answer her. He slowly turned around in the darkness. Half of his face was hidden in the shadows, and only his mouth was exposed. The corners of his mouth were curled into a sharp curve.
A strange and indescribable "force field" emanated from his body. It was so strong that it could be seen with the naked eye. It slightly distorted the space around him, and even the light from the candlelight was bent in the air.
Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but slide a few steps back. She activated her hypersensory and [Defense Forcefield] as she stared at the man in front of her cautiously. The small space in front of her was like a piece of glass that had been broken and pieced back together. It was fragmented and uneven.
"Isn't that obvious?" King Henry followed her two steps. His footsteps were silent on the carpet. He stepped into the "force field" that he had just set up. His entire body seemed to have lost its original shape, as if it had been refracted countless times.
"Because … I am also a player," King Henry's smile was sharp, but his next sentence was gentle. "… My mission in the time travel is to kill a character called Gabriel."
Even though Lin Sanjiu had already sensed the hostility from the man, she still felt goosebumps all over her body.
"That's impossible. You didn't step on the pedal —"
"In my eyes, you are just a European medieval woman who walks normally," King Henry said with a smile. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly raised both of his hands. One of his hands pressed forward, while the other hand moved backward.
Even though Lin Sanjiu was already on her guard, she suddenly felt a tightness on her back. His internal organs felt like they were being crushed by thousands of pounds, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. The [Defense Forcefield] had already been activated at this moment, and almost all of it was concentrated on his back that was being crushed, resisting this enormous pressure that came out of nowhere.
He struggled to look behind him. Lin Sanjiu did not see anything. There was not a single sound in the empty side hall. She gritted her teeth and tried to move to the side, but the force was so strong that she could not move at all. She struggled a little and heard the bones in her back crack, as if they were about to break.
They waited for a breath of time. Seeing that the woman in front of him was still standing, King Henry seemed a little surprised.
"Oh? You don't seem to be using any special abilities. I didn't expect your body to be so strong. "His smile gradually faded, and his mouth became a thin line. "It seems like I was right not to attack you rashly."
King Henry moved his hands as if he was going to do something else. Regardless of what he was going to do, Lin Sanjiu knew that once he did that, she would not be able to withstand it. The pressure on her back was so strong that it could no longer be considered a force. If Lin Sanjiu was a white mouse in a jar, then the current situation was like a white mouse in a jar. A part of the jar had caved in, and it was pressing on the white mouse's body. Lin Sanjiu couldn't move at all.
Under such circumstances, Lin Sanjiu didn't dare to try King Henry's next attack. Seeing that King Henry had already raised his hand a little, she hurriedly called out a card. In her desperation, she didn't even know what card she had called out.
She felt a sudden weight on her hand, and her hands sank. The opening of the pouch tilted, and a handful of bright orange cat litter spilled out. The yellow cat litter covered Lin Sanjiu.
"Huh?"
As expected, King Henry was taken aback when he realized that the person he had trapped in his ability had suddenly disappeared. He was in a daze for less than half a second. He unconsciously put his hands down, and a woman rolled out of the yellow nothingness in front of him.
Lin Sanjiu did not even dare to breathe. Before King Henry could react, she threw another handful of cat litter at him. In the few seconds that King Henry had left, Lin Sanjiu did not even dare to breathe. She took advantage of the few seconds she had and dashed to the other end of the side palace like a madman. The space there seemed to be unaffected by King Henry's ability.
The pain of being crushed alive was still fresh in her body. To be honest, even she herself was a little confused. She had no idea how she managed to escape from that space. She stopped in her tracks when she felt a sharp pain all over her body. When she turned around and spread her wings, Lin Sanjiu suddenly remembered that she had forgotten something.
King Henry was standing next to her footboard, his eyes darting around.
"Your footboard … should be around here, right?" He didn't seem to see Lin Sanjiu's footboard. He kicked the air twice to test his luck. The tip of his foot brushed past the edge of the footboard twice.
"What if he can get my footboard?"
Lin Sanjiu tried her best to suppress her panic. She sneered, "You won't be able to find it. I have already kept it. Now, I just need to kill you in one minute. Then, I can return to my footboard. "
King Henry tilted his head and looked at her. He seemed to be very doubtful and wasn't sure if she was telling the truth. He didn't walk far from where Lin Sanjiu was standing just now. He just snorted at her.
"You can try." King Henry waved his hand, and the space next to him shattered. "No matter what it is, if it wants to attack me, it can go through my ability."
[Picasso]
Cubism and Abstract Painting, which seemed to be incomprehensible to most people, had a wonderful function after it was turned into an ability. Just like how Picasso cleverly displayed multiple three-dimensional dimensions on a flat canvas, the owner of this ability could break up parts of the space around him into small pieces and then reassemble them into a flat painting that he liked.
Of course, the objects in this space would naturally change their positions. In the famous painting, "The Weeping Woman", the position of the nose and mouth did not conform to the structure of the human body. The owner of the ability knew that this could lead to death, but for the sake of art, he asked everyone to make a sacrifice.
"Anything that passes through this space will become a part of my painting," King Henry said as he stared at Lin Sanjiu. Both of his hands remained motionless in the air. It was as if the "Picasso's painting" would relax if he put his hands down. "I'd like to see just what kind of method you have to get close to me."
Lin Sanjiu's heart tightened. She knew that this was not going to be easy.
Not to mention the fact that she was wounded all over, King Henry's ability was both offensive and defensive, which made it impossible for her to get close to him. If he also had a special item that could attack from a distance, it would be even more difficult to deal with him. While she was trying her best to come up with a countermeasure, the announcer had already given her a slow countdown. It was almost impossible to take down King Henry within a minute.
Cold sweat trickled down her forehead. Lin Sanjiu's mind went through a few Special Items, but she still couldn't come up with any good ideas.
Mrs. Manas once criticized her for relying too much on external objects. Hei Zeji also said that if she relied on her ability and Special Items, she would eventually meet her nemesis. Lin Sanjiu could only curse herself for not realizing this problem earlier.
With every passing second, King Henry's expression became more and more relaxed.
He seemed to have figured out that Lin Sanjiu couldn't do anything to him. Even if he didn't move and just stood there waiting for the time to pass, "Gabriel" in front of him would only end up dead.
Just when Lin Sanjiu gritted her teeth and decided to take the risk, a familiar flapping sound suddenly pierced through the air and approached her in the blink of an eye.
"… Hey, I just defeated an attacker. You're probably in trouble now." Hei Zeji's cold voice sounded like a melody from the heavens. Lin Sanjiu held her breath, afraid that she would miss a single word.
"I don't know if this Zhihe can find you … Anyway, if you hear what I said, do as I say from now on." (To be continued.)
PS:
Recently, I felt dizzy and my ears were ringing. I went to the hospital and waited for the whole afternoon. I wasted a lot of time, but I didn't get any results … Originally, I didn't want to rest for a day, but when I checked at night, there were so many Heshibi! It would be even more embarrassing if he didn't!
