In the Nightmare Tapir's dreamland, Busby carried out the plan he came up with step by step. However, he failed to capture Lin Huang in the end.
He knew that the Nightmare Tapir had done something to him the moment he failed to capture him. However, he still had no idea that he was not actually in the real world.
"He can use the technique he used to move Lin Xie away a second or a third time if he can do it once." Busby did not attack right away. Instead, he was thinking about what he should do next.
"In other words, I must find a way to break this technique if I want to capture Lin Xie. I can either test him multiple times and figure out exactly what technique he's using before looking for the corresponding way to break it. Or I can fight him head-on and kill this bastard that did it. "
Busby frowned after coming to such a conclusion. He seemed to have finally made up his mind a moment later.
He peered at the Nightmare Tapir from far away. His body that was hovering mid-air began twisting in a strange way.
The twisting movement went against the structure of a human's joints completely. Even Lin Huang thought it was extremely strange as he watched from far away. At that moment, Busby looked like a zombie whose body and joints were twisted to the extreme. He was crippled but still wriggling in all sorts of weird postures.
Soon, Busby's body began transforming even more intensely. Most of the bones in his body seemed to have softened while the skin on his body lost its support. He looked like an inflatable doll that was not completely inflated.
Soon, there seemed to be a large number of strange, deformed bones growing in his skin. His entire body was stretched into a strange form that did not look like a human at all.
Just as Lin Huang was shocked, a sharp bulge appeared on Busby's chest. In the next second, there was a bloody wound on his chest. Half of a bug leg that looked like a grayish-black blade protruded out of his chest.
In the next second, the bug leg slashed down like a paper cutter. After cutting Busby's entire chest and abdomen open, a grayish-black bug beast finally came out of Busby's torn body.
As soon as the bug beast came out, Busby's human body turned into a pile of meat and fell onto the ground.
"So, they're molting …" Although Lin Huang knew that Busby and the rest had two forms, this was the first time he had seen the process of an insectoid switching from human to insectoid form. He could not help but be a little curious about what it would be like if the Zergs were switched to humans.
In his true form, Busby was covered in a layer of greyish-black carapace. His body was about three meters long. His four powerful and explosive hind legs supported his entire body steadily.
On its back were two pairs of translucent wings that looked as thin as a cicada's. They were almost at the same level as the second pair of forelegs.
Of the three pairs of front feet, the bottom pair was a pair of blade-like feet, which was what he had used to cut open his body. In the middle was a pair of sharp fang-like spikes, so sharp that no one would dare to doubt its penetrative power. The uppermost pair of front legs extended out from the shoulders. They were two biological firearms with muzzles that were about a meter long.
Above his six front legs was his head.
His head was wrapped in a layer of blue-black carapace, forming a sharp inverted triangle. At the bottom of the triangle was a gaping mouth filled with sharp teeth that looked like stainless steel needles. At the top of the triangle was a compound eye made of countless tiny eyes that extended to the left and right.
Apart from the compound eyes and the gaping mouth, there was no third organ on his head.
From a human's point of view, one must admit that Busby's true form was tens of thousands of times uglier than his human form.
Busby's aura seemed to be much more powerful after he returned to his true form.
He looked in the direction where Lin Huang and the Nightmare Tapir were from far away. The two pairs of wings on his back were flapping intensely, releasing an ear-piercing buzz. At the same time, his four lower limbs exerted strength. His body turned into an afterimage and faded away slowly.
Almost in the next second, Busby appeared before the Nightmare Tapir directly. His four blade-like front legs attacked the Nightmare Tapir like a storm.
Before Lin Huang could catch what he was doing, Busby was already fighting the Nightmare Tapir.
Eventually, he chose a more direct plan — kill the Nightmare Tapir!
The reason why he made such a decision was that the series of attacks earlier had drained close to a third of the Divine Power in his body. He was not sure if the remaining Divine Power could find out the secret behind the Nightmare Tapir's movement of Lin Huang. Although he was unwilling to fight the Nightmare Tapir who was obviously an expert in close-range combat, he decided to bite the bullet.
In reality, Busby's close-combat ability was not weak. One could even say that he was very powerful.
The reason why he did not choose close-combat in the beginning was that he judged the Nightmare Tapir's close-combat ability to be extremely powerful. He did not have the confidence to fight it head-on. Even if he could win, he might have to pay a hefty price.
In the beginning, his only target was to capture Lin Huang. There was no need for him to fight the Nightmare Tapir head-on.
However, he would not be able to capture Lin Huang if he did not kill the Nightmare Tapir now. He had no other choice.
In reality, the Nightmare Tapir was really bad at close-combat.
However, the Nightmare Tapir was omnipotent in dreamland. He could replicate all of the skills that he had seen.
Besides Lin Huang's other nine God Figurine's Combat Souls, the Nightmare Tapir could replicate all of Lin Huang's summoning beasts' skills as long as he had seen them. He could even replicate the skills of other monsters and people unrelated to Lin Huang as long as he had seen them.
One could say that the Nightmare Tapir was invincible in dreamland.
In the void, the insect and the beast collided again and again.
Busby's close-combat ability was really powerful. His sword and spear skills were almost at the peak of level-6. He was only half a step away from comprehending True Meaning.
Each time he attacked with his sword legs or spiked legs, it was almost the peak of his sword and spear skills. It was so perfect that it was impeccable. The two gun worm legs on his shoulders were extremely agile. They would perform skillful gunfighting skills from strange angles from time to time, catching one off guard.
Although that was the case, the Nightmare Tapir was playing with Busby. He was only using the close-combat ability that he had imitated from other monsters.
Even under such circumstances, the battle was almost earth-shattering.
One could only imagine the impact of a close-combat battle between two Virtual God rank-8 powerhouses.
As the shockwaves of the collision swept out, not only did the ground collapse, mountains and rivers topple, oceans disappear, and even the sky trembled.
Lin Huang could not capture any of the duo's movements at all. All he could see were the flashes that lit up in the air. It was the intense explosion that came from the collision of their bodies and Divine Power.
Outside of dreamland, Lin Huang asked the Nightmare Tapir, "Roughly how long more do I need to read his memory?"
"Around half an hour more."
"Record this battle and share it with me later. I'll watch it at a slower speed. I should be able to learn quite a lot! "Lin Huang grinned at the Nightmare Tapir.
He could not help but study the person's sword skill each time he saw a powerhouse who used a sword. Although the person who used a sword this time was just a Bug Tribe, he was still very interested in the person's sword skill and sword dao.
