The battle of the strongest, the battle of the craziest.
A new chapter in the battle on the vast sea.
Under the shocked gaze of the audience, Feng Bujue not only shaved his head, he even removed the jacket that he was wearing.
Obviously, Brother Jue, who had completely 'crossed the line', was no longer restricted by the system's' clothing '. If he wanted to, he could even take off his pants.
When Phantom Dawn saw the change in Brother Jue, the shock on his face only lasted for a few seconds. Soon, he accepted this setting.
"Humph … That's more like it …" Phantom Dawn laughed as he grabbed the jacket on his shoulders and tossed the white jacket that had the logo of Regulation Studio on it. "If I don't do this, it will be pointless …"
He was using his actions to tell Brother Jue that he had already stepped into the same realm as him.
"Don't you want to consider summoning your summoned creatures first?" As Feng Bujue spoke, he undid the button on his shirt near his collarbone. Then he rolled up the sleeves of his shirt to his elbows.
"There's no need to rush," Phantom Dawn replied. "I want to see what kind of water you are …"
Hiss!
When he said the word 'flat', Phantom Dawn's body flashed to appear before Brother Jue, and he sent a flying kick at the latter's face.
However, at the same time, Feng Bujue turned his head to the side like he knew what was coming, and he narrowly avoided the attack.
Then, with a slap, Brother Jue reached out with one hand to grab the leg that flew over his shoulder and tossed Phantom Dawn into the air.
Tossing me into the air … He must be planning to use some kind of long-range laser skill on me … Phantom Dawn, who was sent flying, thought to himself. Humph … How laughable. Do you think I can't do something like leaping into the air?
With that in mind, he tried to change his direction, but … once he made his first move, he felt something strange.
It was the feeling of punching the air with all his might. After the power was released, the "real feeling" that should have been transmitted back did not appear.
"This is …" Phantom Dawn's battle instinct was undeniable. In that split second, he used the data view to confirm what had happened to him. "… Weightless Contact!"
Phantom Dawn was familiar with this skill. This was a skill that had accompanied Shiva for a long time. As Regulation's direct competitor, Brahman … even if Phantom Dawn had not seen their boss's data before, from the competition videos and the information provided by the studio, he would have known about it.
Therefore, Phantom Dawn was very familiar with the theory behind this skill and the way to counter it. To resist Weightless Contact, one had to use a flying skill like Air Dance. Using Air Walk, which was essentially a borrowing of force, would not work.
Unfortunately, Phantom Dawn did not have the ability to fly … and Feng Bujue knew that very well.
"God …" One second later, before Phantom Dawn could recover from the shock, Brother Jue's voice rang out.
Phantom Dawn heard that and lowered his head to look. He was shocked to see a small bottle appear next to his opponent's feet, and the cork of the bottle had been pulled out.
"This is bad!" Seeing this, Phantom Dawn immediately guessed his opponent's intention, and he cursed internally.
"Seal …" But Feng Bujue's skill had already taken shape, and Phantom Dawn had no room to dodge. "… Bo!"
When he shouted, the light from God's Sealing Wave shot into the sky and headed straight for Phantom Dawn.
This was the finals of S3, and everyone knew that Feng Bujue could use all his skills, but no one would have thought that this man who had been clamoring for a 'showdown' with his opponent before the match would use a 'forced seal' at the start of the match.
If this trick worked, then Phantom Dawn, who was sealed inside the bottle, would be like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. Brother Jue only needed to use an attack that was powerful enough to one-shot the opponent inside the bottle, and he would be able to kill the opponent who was in an energy state and unable to put up any defense.
Of course, Phantom Dawn … was not so easily tricked.
The so-called "strongest" meant that one had to have a way to deal with any situation. One had to be invulnerable in defense and invincible in offense. Only then could one be invincible in battle.
Seeing the light coming at him, Phantom Dawn had a thought, and he shouted, "Stand!"
Just as he shouted, a two-meter-tall creature with the head of a horse and the body of a man appeared before Phantom Dawn and came into contact with the energy of God's Sealing Wave.
"Name: Summoning — Night Walker (Doppelganger Type)
"Skill Card Property: Active, Permanent
"Skill Type: Summoning
"Effect: Summon a Night Walker (Doppelganger type summons can be summoned or dismissed at any time. No cooldown, and the duration is based on Stamina. Non-multiple doppelgangers cannot be summoned multiple times)
"Doppelganger Ability Points: Damage A, Speed A, Shooting Range B, Sustain A, Precision C, Growth B
"Doppelganger Ability: Musou Swordsmanship (Extremely powerful fighting ability) Abyssal Body (Immune to all dark element attacks) Iron Will (Immune to all mental attacks)
Consumption: Can be summoned when focused.
"Learning Requirement: Unlocked Summoning and Sorcery Mastery; Implanted Doppelganger 'DISC' after being pierced or injured by an 'arrow'; Once visited the Demon's Palm to equip the 'Holy Body'.
[Remark: Legend has it that in a certain Abyssal World where even demons are unable to set foot in, there exists a type of black horse. They are known as the 'Galloping Night'. They are the physical manifestation of the purest and most active power in the Abyssal World. One day, a soul from another dimension known as the 'Abyssal Walker' came to this world. After a long period of time, he resonated with the 'Galloping Night'. His soul fused with this power, and the 'Galloping Night' was born.]
Phantom Dawn had summoned this creature not because Nightwalker was the most suitable summon but because Nightwalker was the only summon that he could summon that could 'appear instantaneously before the player'.
In other words, he had no other choice, but no matter what … it would solve the problem.
Since God's Sealing Wave could only be used on the first creature that it hit, Night Walker's sudden appearance placed Feng Bujue in a dilemma. He could either cancel the skill or seal Night Walker for the time being.
After weighing the pros and cons, he naturally chose the latter. This was because a doppelganger had the basic characteristic of 'the damage inflicted on the doppelganger will be reflected on the main body'. There were exceptions, like multiple doppelgangers, but Phantom Dawn's doppelganger was not one of them. Therefore … if he could seal Night Walker and kill him instantly, he could also cause Phantom Dawn's death.
But … how could Phantom Dawn allow him to do that?
When Night Walker entered the energy flow of God's Sealing Wave, Phantom Dawn's real body had already made his move. He would not allow his doppelganger to be sealed inside a bottle. In the blink of an eye, he took out something from his inventory and tossed it at Brother Jue.
The thing that he tossed was nothing special; it was just a normal explosive. Under most circumstances, the power of this explosive would not be able to kill a level 60 player (unless the player did not have any defensive equipment on when the explosive hit their face). However, this item was more than enough to blow up a bottle ….
Whoosh!
There was the sound of wind being torn, and the explosive came with it.
Even though Phantom Dawn had nowhere to borrow strength from, with the strength of his arm, it was easy for him to complete this' toss'.
On Feng Bujue's side … since God's Sealing Wave required both hands to use, he had to use his legs to deal with it.
At that moment, Brother Jue's left leg flickered, and a Rankyaku Kick flew out to meet the item that was flying at him.
Bang!
The next second, the sound of an explosion echoed in the air. Shockwaves and fire spread out.
Even though Feng Bujue's reaction and kick were as fast as they could be, the shockwave from the explosion still managed to shatter the bottle on the ground. In that way, God's Sealing Wave lost its container, and it lost its effect.
However, seeing this, Brother Jue did not bat an eyelid. He continued to use the skill and directed the energy flow that carried Nightwalker to face him.
"Ha …" Phantom Dawn, who saw this from the sky, laughed and said, "What are you doing? You want to fight my doppelganger in close combat? Just by looking at it, I can tell that his physical strength is stronger than yours … "
Bang!
Before he finished, Feng Bujue had already thrown a punch.
When the punch arrived, Nightwalker crossed his arms to block it, but … he had just come out from God's Sealing Wave, and he had not found his footing yet. Furthermore, he was slower than the player, so he failed to block the punch.
In the end, Brother Jue's punch landed squarely on the center of Nightwalker's torso, where his stomach was located. It blasted a circular hole through his torso.
"Such a shame …" After Feng Bujue used this Ultimate Punch, he used a lazy tone to mock Nightwalker. "If your doppelganger was as short as you, my punch would have landed on his face."
At the same time, Phantom Dawn, who was in the air, had blanched. He could not even speak. Without a doubt … there was a hole in his torso, just like Nightwalker.
At that moment, the intense pain and anger did not stop Phantom Dawn from making the correct decision. With a thought, he dispelled his doppelganger to prevent the injured Nightwalker from being pursued by Brother Jue again.
"I believe this punch is enough for you to understand … that when you are fighting with me, summoning a 'substitute', a summoned creature that 'will reflect the damage to the main body' carries a great risk." Seeing Tacha disappear before his eyes, Feng Bujue was not surprised at all, and his tone was as casual as ever.
On the other hand, Phantom Dawn used several seconds to use the Right Hand of Negation to repair the damage on his body and quickly adjusted his breathing.
However, after he caught his breath, he did not respond to the question about the doppelganger immediately. Instead, he roared, "Who did you say was short!"
"You are the only short person here. Who else could I be talking about?" Brother Jue narrowed his eyes and drawled.
"Pfft! Who is short? "Phantom Dawn retorted." You baldy! What right do you have to criticize me? "
"Huh?" When Feng Bujue heard that, his expression shifted, and his dead fish eyes widened. "Who are you calling a baldy? I was just stating the fact that 'even if you include the height of your hair, you are not as tall as me', so I wanted to show you my height. "
"Stop bullsh * tting! You are using the act of shaving to cross the threshold! "Phantom Dawn roared." Using baldness as the price to become stronger! Only you would do something so tasteless! "
"Huh?" Feng Bujue's face turned to the side. "Tasteless?" He raised his brow and replied, "Baldness is the enemy of all men. How can you call such an act tasteless? Did you drink too much milk to your lungs? "
"What does drinking milk have to do with you? Can't I drink it because I like it? "At this point, Phantom Dawn started to swear.
"Oh, is that so …" Feng Bujue said as he suddenly reached into his backpack to take out a pack of snacks. He tore open the packaging and popped one into his mouth.
"What … are … you … doing?" Phantom Dawn asked word by word.
Actually, during the preparation stage, he had already looked through everything that Feng Bujue had in his backpack, and the thing that surprised him was … in the finals of such a big competition, Feng Bujue had snacks in his backpack.
It should be noted that even [Order]'s "Hot Draw" wouldn't bring that kind of item in the finals. Any normal player would definitely make use of every single slot in their inventory to put something useful in this kind of situation.
But … Feng Bujue not only brought snacks with him, at that moment, he started to eat them before everyone's eyes.
"What's wrong?" When Brother Jue heard Phantom Dawn's question, he smiled wickedly and replied, "Only shorties are allowed to drink milk, but baldies are not allowed to eat kelp?"
When he said that, Ruo Yu, who was in the spectator space, could not help but lower her head. She covered her face with one hand and growled, "Ah!"
Due to her understanding of Brother Jue, Ruo Yu reacted this way.
Moments later, not only Ruo Yu, many people, including Phantom Dawn, realized what Feng Bujue was doing.
To put it bluntly … he had planned everything from the beginning.
Why would he purposely bring a bag of dried kelp into this competition? That was because he had planned to use it from the very beginning. From the start of the competition to the moment he found the chance to say the line about Phantom Dawn's height, and then to the rest of the conversation … all the preparation and guidance was to make him say that 'only shorties are allowed to drink milk, but baldies are not allowed to eat kelp'.
Brother Jue did not hesitate to call himself a baldie to make the fact that Phantom Dawn was' shorty 'a reality. The competition could be lost, but Phantom Dawn had to be short.
Perhaps someone would ask, "Why would he spend so much effort to do something that others would think is so pointless?"
When you thought about that question, you had already lost.
Did Feng Bujue need a reason to 'humiliate' someone? As long as he thought it was worth it, or at least he could find joy in it, that was enough.
"You …" While the two were conversing, Phantom Dawn had escaped from the effect of weightlessness and landed on the ground. However, his rationality did not land with him.
Some skills … required the user to abandon their rationality to activate, like the skill that he was about to use.
"Ah!" After he landed, Phantom Dawn assumed a horse stance. His legs were slightly bent, and his hands were curled into fists. They were pressed against his waist, and then … he started to roar.
"Ho … Is it about to change …" Feng Bujue looked at his opponent, as leisurely as before, and even muttered, "Super Saiyan …"
Yes, Brother Jue was not joking. Phantom Dawn did have the S-grade transformation skill, Super Saiyan, but … he had not used it in public before.
There were only two reasons for that. One, to keep it a secret, and two, there was no need to.
After all, would a player who could defeat a top player like Shiva in their normal state need to transform? The answer was definitely no.
But at that moment, in this final battle, facing an opponent like Feng Bujue … those two reasons no longer existed.
"Ah!" As Phantom Dawn roared, golden energy shot into the sky. The violent energy caused the whole battlefield, from the ground to the air, to tremble. Even the audience through the screen could feel the savagery that rushed at them.
However, standing ten meters away from Phantom Dawn, Brother Jue, who faced that power directly, looked at his opponent calmly and slowly shoved dried kelp into his mouth.
