Sakurai Yuenako, who was being stared at by the light, was overwhelmed with fear. For a moment, she wanted to order the pilot to escape immediately.
However, she suppressed the fear in her heart. Biting her lips, she stubbornly looked into Li Xianyu's eyes and fired another shot.
This time, Li Xianyu caught the trajectory of the sniper rifle and saw the large-caliber bullet. He flicked the bullet in his hand, and the two bullets collided in mid-air, making a crisp sound and splashing sparks.
In his rage, Li Xianyu, who had activated his red eyes, rose into the air and flew toward the helicopter.
"Bang!"
A gunshot came from afar. This time, it wasn't Sakurai Yuenako who fired the shot. It was San Wu. She shot the pilot's head from a thousand meters away.
The bulletproof glass of the military helicopter wasn't strong enough to resist a modified sniper rifle. The pilot's head exploded, and blood splattered on the instrument panel and the windshield. Without the pilot, the helicopter crashed into the sea.
Coincidentally, Li Xianyu arrived at the scene. The Sword of Qi in his right hand shone with white light, dispelling the darkness.
Sakurai Yuenako rose into the air and fired continuously as she leaned back, trying to block Li Xianyu's attack.
Li Xianyu didn't even dodge. He let the bullets hit his chest and the center of his eyebrows. He looked calm, but the murderous intent in his eyes wasn't weak at all. "I don't mind beautiful girls doing things to me, but that doesn't include killing me."
Sakurai Yuenako's lips curled up into a beautiful smile. "I wasn't wrong about you. You are a man who will seek revenge for the smallest grievance."
"These are your last words?" Li Xianyu sneered.
Sakurai Yuenako didn't answer. She had achieved her goal. Regardless of whether she lived or died, she had successfully controlled the hatred and delayed Li Xianyu.
However, the moment the Sword of Qi slashed down, her strong desire to live forced her to fight back and save herself.
Two consecutive shots hit Li Xianyu's body. At the same time, she activated an expensive protective artifact and turned it into a shield.
However, it wasn't enough to block the peerless Sword of Qi. The protective artifact was destroyed immediately, and the shield shattered. Sakurai Yuenako's left arm was cut off at the shoulder, and a deep wound appeared on her chest.
"I will curse you in hell." She kicked Li Xianyu's chest and used this force to fall into the sea with her sniper rifle.
Li Xianyu stood still on the surface of the sea for a moment. He sensed that Sakurai Yukinako's aura was rapidly dissipating and finally disappeared without a trace. No one knew if he was dead or in hiding.
Her Esper ability seemed to be a field of concealment. The bullets she fired were silent and could almost hide from his senses.
Just as he was about to dive into the sea to deal the finishing blow, a strong energy fluctuation erupted from the deck of the liner, and the wind pressure raised waves.
"Even if he doesn't die after taking a blow from me, his life force will be corroded by the sword energy of the Energy Sword. It's just a matter of time before he dies. In comparison, I should help Great-grandmother get rid of Gu Yao first. "With a light step on the surface of the sea, he flew up into the air and returned to the deck to join the battle.
The reinforcements from the Tenjin Association might arrive in the blink of an eye, so he had to guard against this possibility.
Kurumi Aoki chased after the fleeing members of the Tenjin Association into the first floor of the cabin. The members of the Tenjin Association did not escape into the cabin because of her pursuit, but because the three great gods on the deck had started fighting. If they continued to stay outside, they could die at any time in the aftermath of the battle.
"After entering the cabin, Sanno's firepower will no longer be able to interfere with the enemy and help us. So far, that top-notch S-Grade Esper has not been used yet. It might be some kind of trump card, so we must be careful. "Kurumi Aoki made a hand gesture, indicating for Emerald to enter the cabin through the side window.
She gripped the Tri-Flowered Oniki Cutter tightly and stared into the darkness of the cabin as she slowly stepped in.
As soon as her feet touched the elm floor, a huge pressure descended from the sky and enveloped her entire body. Her knees bent uncontrollably, and the Tri-Flowered Oniki Cutter in her hand felt like it weighed a thousand pounds.
Is it gravity?!
Kurumi Aoki, who had sparred with many opponents, had good combat experience and eyesight. She quickly determined the opponent's Esper Ability. The huge pressure did not descend from the sky, but from beneath her feet. At this moment, the gravity she felt had increased by a hundred or even a thousand times.
Such a strong gravity Esper Ability was definitely not normal. Kurumi Aoki endured the powerful pressure that caused her blood vessels to burst.
"The sudden pressure is indeed an excellent ability for an ambush, especially when it is used to lure me into the cabin. What follows next will be a fatal attack."
Her hands and feet became slow and heavy, but her mind was racing. She immediately thought of a way to deal with it.
A cold light fell from above, making a whistling sound as it sliced through the air. Kurumi Aoki's scalp went numb. She tensed her muscles and moved sideways under the huge pressure. At the same time, she activated her protective aura barrier.
The cold blade opened up on her smooth jade back, leaving a bloody wound that exposed the bone. Kurumi Aoki activated her Charm Esper Ability while enduring the attack.
She temporarily confused the ambushers above her and the ambushers nearby. With a flick of her wrist, she infused her Ki into the Tri-Flower Monstercutter and slammed her heavy longsword into the floor.
The floor exploded with a bang. She had successfully used her opponent's gravity and her own strength to break through the floor as fast as she could. A hole appeared under her feet.
Kurumi Aoki fell. The moment her figure disappeared, gunshots and the sound of the blade slicing through the air rang out at the same time. The ambushers who had been temporarily confused by her Charm Esper Ability attacked, but they were too late.
After successfully escaping and entering the next floor, the terrifying gravity disappeared. Kurumi Aoki immediately rolled to the side to avoid any possible attacks from above.
"Excluding that top S rank, there are still four more S ranks. They are proficient in joint attacks, so I'm not afraid of them. However, I can't kill all four of them immediately. If I get entangled in a fight, I'll be creating an opportunity for the top S rank unless I kill him first." Kurumi Aoki gasped as she assessed the situation.
The wound on her back was very deep and long. To a normal person, it would undoubtedly be a fatal wound. However, she had a top-notch [S] class physique, so the wound would stop bleeding on its own and slowly heal. However, scars were unavoidable.
I'll definitely ask the descendant of Onimusu for a vial of blood. I won't be able to get married with such an ugly scar, Kurumi thought to herself. She had medicine and gauze in her wallet, but she didn't have the time to treat the wound.
If Cui Hua had any brains, she should know who to attack.
Just as Kuri Aoki was thinking about this, she heard the sound of glass shattering from above. The curses of the Tenjin Association and the screams of Emerald Flower rang out at the same time.
Through the hole in the top of her head, she saw that Cui Hua, whose speed was restricted, had slowed down. Her four limbs seemed to be glued to the ground, making it difficult for her to move. There were four knives chopping at her at the same time, but they stuck to the surface of her body. The blades were like cows stuck in mud, unable to advance an inch.
When she looked closely, she saw that there were threads of air wrapped around the blades, preventing them from moving forward. Not only the saber, but a few bullets aimed at Cui Hua were also entangled by the wind and froze in midair.
Both sides fell into a temporary stalemate.
Kurumi Aoki was overjoyed. She lowered her knees slightly and suddenly exerted force, jumping back to the first floor through the hole. The Three Flowers Demon Slash slashed out a poignant yet beautiful blade light in the darkness.
"Pfft!"
The top S-class, who was also entangled by Cui Hua's air flow, was split in half. Blood spurted out.
Success!
Kurumi Aoki's eyes fell on the two halves of the corpse, but she was shocked to find that there was a dark green substance wriggling inside the corpse. It was not a large amount, but it was intertwined with the bright red flesh. It was slowly wriggling, trying to heal.
Master Qing's disguise?
Kurumi Aoki was stunned at first, then her pupils shrank and her hair stood on end.
Wrong, this guy was not a real top S-class. His true level was S class, and he relied on Master Qing's flesh to forcibly increase his level to S class, then deceived her and Cui Hua. Was this flesh something that could be found in a street stall? Why did everyone have it?
Or maybe the top S-class had secretly given it to his subordinate to disguise as him, while he himself hid among the ordinary S-class.
As for the true gravity ability, that top S class was someone else.
A cold killing intent erupted from behind her. Kurumi Aoki had no time to put up any effective resistance. Her eyes flashed fiercely, and with a flick of her wrist, the Three Flowers Demon Slash stabbed behind her.
"Pfft!"
Two sounds of a sharp blade piercing through flesh could be heard. A curved blade pierced through Kurumi Aoki's chest, blood dripping from the blade as it spun, crushing Kurumi Aoki's heart in her chest.
Kurumi Aoki's sword also stabbed into the killer's body, but when the tip of the blade touched the killer, a terrifying gravity force descended from the sky once again, preventing her blade from piercing through the killer and inflicting heavy damage.
"Young lamb, I hate to kill you, but for the sake of my master's great cause, I have no choice but to send you to hell." The man behind her laughed hoarsely, unsheathing his long blade, intending to take Kurumi Aoki's head and end her once and for all.
At the crucial moment, Asuka manipulated the wind to change the trajectory of the long blade, allowing it to sweep past Kurumi Aoki's head, cutting off a few strands of her hair.
Asuka endured the gravity ability and the blades, pouncing towards Kurumi Aoki. She opened her mouth and leapt into the hole.
She could not go to the deck, as the heavily injured Kurumi Aoki would not be able to withstand the impact.
The state of this top S-class was very strange. His ability was so strong that it was almost at the peak of top S-class, but it seemed like it could not be maintained for long. It could only be used intermittently. He must have taken some kind of potion that stimulated his potential. There was no need to pay attention to such an opponent, as once the time was up, he would suffer from the side effects of the potion and die.
Asuka analyzed the situation before her. The best way was to use the wide area of the liner to fight and buy time.
But she knew that Kurumi Aoki did not have much time left. Her heart had been crushed, causing her to lose a lot of blood. A top S-class physique would not die immediately, but with blood loss and lack of oxygen, she would be eaten away by the pain, slowly approaching the end of her life.
Her ears twitched, and she heard the sound of footsteps coming from behind.
Kurumi Aoki's wallet contained the blood medicine that Li Xianyu had given them in case of an emergency. But the people from Tenshin were too tight, and there was no time to give her the injection. Although the cabin was spacious, it was not flat ground. It was hundreds of meters long, not enough time for her to inject the blood.
This distance could be covered in three seconds by a top S-class.
Asuka looked at the dark sea, her amber pupils turning. She made a prompt decision, broke through the wall of the cabin, and jumped into the sea.
Her limbs stepped lightly on the surface of the sea, as if she was stepping on solid ground. She was about to jump up and return to the liner where San Wu was, but suddenly, a huge pressure enveloped her. Her limbs felt like they were a thousand pounds, and her back felt like a mountain was pressing down on it.
A person and a cat fell into the sea, sinking into the dark sea.
Splash!
The top S-class from Tenshin jumped into the sea without hesitation. With a knife in his mouth, he moved his limbs and dived into the dark sea.
