Unleashing the teleportation ability, as well as the apple and the flying dagger!
The former was an acceptable threat, and the latter's ability to ignore the Defensive Shield could reduce the threat as long as he was careful.
However, when both were used at the same time, it would become quite tricky.
If he was not careful, it was very likely that he would be fatally injured.
Fortunately, he raised his arm in time to block it. What was even more fortunate was that the injury was on his left arm.
If his right arm was injured, the power of the chain would be greatly reduced.
Seeing Culolo rushing over, Kurapika instantly understood the other party's plan.
It was nothing more than not wanting him to use the Healing Chain to heal the penetrating wound on his left arm and take advantage of the situation to kill him.
"The book did not turn the pages or cancel, which means that those two abilities are still there."
Kurapika quickly looked around, looking for anything that could be used.
This place was right in front of the gate of the cemetery building, built like a small square.
The closer place was the parking lot, and a little further away was the green area and the small forest.
Both of these places could block the teleportation ability.
However, it was hard to say if he could successfully shift the battlefield.
His gaze turned and fixed on Culolo, who was rushing over.
"Before that, the things that can be used …"
The corner of Kurapika's eyes was still blood-red.
That was real blood.
Culolo's rushing body suddenly disappeared on the spot, and in the next second, he appeared on Kurapika's right.
When Kurapika waved his arm and prepared to defend, Culolo used his ability again and disappeared on the spot.
His real target was Kurapika's left.
Because Kurapika's left arm was injured, his defense would be greatly weakened.
Whoosh!
However, Kurapika was already prepared. He controlled the chain to circle around his body, creating a cyclone that temporarily forced Culolo to retreat.
Then, Kurapika made a move to use the Healing Chain to heal his left arm, but he saw Culolo approaching again.
One person defended, one person attacked.
Both sides went back and forth, neither giving in.
This stalemate lasted for more than three minutes. Kurapika did not have a chance to heal his left arm, and Culolo did not succeed again.
"Twice."
Kurapika maintained his defensive position while silently counting a number in his heart.
In the stalemate, his left arm could not be healed and could only barely stop the bleeding. Culolo had two chances to print the apple pattern, but he gave up.
Why did he give up?
Kurapika remembered that before Culolo threw the knife, he had closed his eyes and paused for about two seconds.
If it was a limitation of his ability, then he would have had enough time to heal the injury on his left arm before Ku Luoluo successfully imprinted the apple pattern and threw the knife a second time.
That was why Ku Luoluo had given up on two chances to imprint the apple, because neither of those chances could have been fatal.
If he were to give up just because of this, his persuasion power would still be insufficient.
If I were Culolo, there would be no need to give up the opportunity to print the pattern.
Even if the part printed was not fatal, as long as he did not activate his ability, he could keep printing the apple pattern during the fight.
When the apple pattern accumulated enough, he could release the knife at one time to form a fatal effect!
However, Culolo did not do that. Even if he did not print the apple pattern, he could still find an opportunity to attack. But Culolo seemed to be determined and only wanted to print the apple pattern.
He had to consider Culolo's motives and take into account his own healing ability.
The final conclusion that could be drawn was restriction.
1: Close your eyes and pause for about two seconds.
2: Only one knife can be launched at a time.
3: Only one apple pattern can be set at most.
4: Zero distance touch is required to set the apple pattern.
5: When setting the apple pattern, it cannot cause damage on the spot, so it can ignore the target's telekinesis defense and leave the pattern.
He couldn't be sure that every restriction he guessed was correct, but the ability to ignore defense and directly cause damage required many harsh restrictions to support it.
Without more than three restrictions, there would not be such a terrifying ability effect.
Therefore, among the five restrictions, one or even two options were chosen that matched Culolo's motive to give up.
That was two and three!
Then, in order to eliminate the threat of this ability, in the following fight, there was no need to dodge. Instead, he took the initiative to let Culolo print the apple pattern.
After having a plan, Kurapika's movements were obviously lighter.
After several rounds of fighting, Kulapika seized an opportunity. He used the chain to wrap around his injured left arm, and then drove his left palm forward to let Kulapika touch it.
A blood-red apple pattern was printed on Kurapika's left palm.
A hint of surprise flashed in Culolo's eyes, but he suddenly retreated and took the initiative to open up a safe distance.
He looked at Kurapika with interest and asked, "Have you considered the risk of making a wrong bet?"
Kurapika said coldly, "You've already revealed the points, so I won't make a wrong bet."
"Is that so …" Culolo did not deny it and said seriously, "You're very confident."
As soon as his voice fell, he raised his left hand. As his telekinesis surged, a flying knife materialized. He closed his eyes and sighed, "This is a very troublesome ability to use, but it's very interesting."
"As long as you leave the apple pattern on the target, even if they are hundreds or thousands of kilometers apart, with a casual throw like this, the flying knife can cross this distance, ignore any defensive means, and accurately hit the apple pattern."
As Culolo spoke, he let go of his palm and let the flying knife fall to the ground.
However, the flying knife violated the principle of gravity and forcibly made an "L" trajectory. It generated potential energy on its own and flew toward Kurapika's left palm.
Kurapika's expression was calm. When Culolo closed his eyes, he had already healed the penetrating wound on his left arm with the Healing Chain. Then, the flying knife penetrated his left palm and disappeared.
The Healing Chain quickly climbed up his left palm and healed the second penetrating wound.
Culolo did not stop Kurapika. Instead, he flipped through the book and chose the next ability.
Kurapika had already discovered the weakness of the [Blindfold Flying Knife]. In addition, Kurapika's healing ability was too strong, so there was no reason to continue using it.
The most demanding restriction of this ability was that the relationship between the [Performer] and the [Assistant] could not be destroyed during the preparation process. From the beginning to the end of the performance, it was like a planned script.
Therefore, when Culolo used this ability, he could only hurt Kurapika by shooting an apple with the flying knife.
In other words, when Kurapika took the initiative to imprint the apple pattern on his left palm, the lethality of this ability was suppressed to the minimum.
If Kurapika understood the restrictions of this ability enough, when the apple pattern was imprinted on his left palm, the first thing he thought about would not be healing but attacking Culolo fiercely.
This was because Culolo could not hurt him before he completed the [Flying Knife Performance].
In that case, he could kill Ku Luoluo without any worries.
In order to avoid this potential risk, Culolo did not stop Kurapika's treatment. Instead, he insisted on completing the [Flying Knife Performance] and decisively removed his ability.
In fact, after the first successful performance of the [Flying Knife Performance], he should have removed his ability.
However, that would also create an opening for Kurapika to heal his left arm.
