979 、 Final Phase
The volcano suddenly became active. The lava around them spewed out in a frenzy. The platform they were standing on was gradually being surrounded by lava.
"Between you and me, one of us will live and die. This is the moment, Tang Yu -san. I'm betting on my honor as a swordsman! "Shi Jiangshi slowly raised his hand and got into a fighting stance. His body began to tremble due to overexertion, but his hands that were holding the sword were still steady.
"At this point, you've already lost, Shi Jiangshi." Tang Yu said expressionlessly, "Because if you're injured, you'll have to recover slowly. If you're damaged, you'll just have to build another one!"
Whoosh! The countless mechanical parts around Tang Yu suddenly flew back to Tang Yu's body and began to assemble. Finally, a gigantic mechanical arm was installed on his arm! Chainsaws, claws, machine guns, and countless other weapons were assembled on the mechanical arm!
Not only that, some of the AT-8's armor also flew over to form an impenetrable defense around Tang Yu!
"So, you and your companions shall die!!" Tang Yu roared. The gigantic mechanical arm that was several meters long came crashing down with the weight of Mount Tai. The various weapons on the arm spat out tongues of flame!
"My death is not to be regretted! But your life must be spared! "Shi Jiangshi said in a low voice. With the last of his strength, he swung his sword! This slash was incomparably cautious and attentive, because he knew that he only had this chance to slash once, and he only had the strength to slash once!
But he was confident. He was confident that he could kill Tang Yu with that one slash! His confidence came from his decades of experience in swordsmanship! In his eyes, that huge mechanical arm was just a chicken and a stray dog!
"Ninth Tier Supreme Sword, Sword of Uniformity!" Shi Jiangshi calmed himself down and swung his sword!
Boom!!! Suddenly, an earth-shattering explosion erupted from the bottom of the volcano! The lava around the platform was blasted dozens of meters high like a wall of fire!
Boom!!! The platform that the two were standing on was pushed up by the explosion and began to crack!!
Boom!! An incomparably huge claw suddenly stretched out from the volcano and slammed down on the platform! Shi Xuan no longer had the strength to deal with this horrifying situation. In other words, even if he was at his peak condition, he could only retreat in the face of the volcano's terrifying explosion. Bang! He was suddenly hit by a flying boulder, and his whole body flew out like a rag!
"Kristina!!" Tang Yu couldn't care less at this moment. The eruption of lava, flames, and a large number of rocks all hit the armor around him, creating a series of loud sounds. He quickly shouted and threw Kristina, who only had her upper body left, into the air. Kristina immediately understood and activated the plasma jet engine on her shoulder, shooting out two streams of blue particles.
Then, the mechanical arm in Tang Yu's hand began to disintegrate. Countless parts began to connect to Kristina's body, forming a pair of metal wings and a pair of claws. Tang Yu grabbed the pair of claws, and Kristina instantly accelerated to the maximum speed and rushed out of the volcano.
Tang Yu did his best to activate his nanomachines to form an energy shield to protect himself and Kristina. The side effect of using the 'New-Born' system to resurrect appeared again. Now, even his nanomachines could not be replenished after losing so many of them.
"And Gaiji and Maya!!" Tang Yu shouted. The entire electromagnetic environment of the area had been completely destroyed by the volcano's terrifying eruption. Communicators were useless, and he could not contact the two.
"They left before I came down because Maya urgently needs treatment. That alien was also with them," Kristina replied. Tang Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Rumble ~ ~ The explosions were getting more and more violent. But if this was a volcano eruption, then Tang Yu knew that the real explosion was yet to come!
At this moment, another explosion came. Tang Yu turned his head and saw a body floating helplessly in the raging flames like a fallen leaf. It was Craftsman Shi!
Tang Yu frowned. Kristina, who was telepathically connected with him, immediately turned around and grabbed Craftsman Shi.
Gulp!! At a place far away from the volcano eruption, Kristina landed. Tang Yu jumped down nimbly and looked at Craftsman Shi, who was on the verge of death after being thrown to the ground by Kristina.
Shi Wu was indeed on the brink of death. A huge rock had smashed into his body when he was fully focused on swinging his saber. The rock had burnt the skin on his back, and he had no idea how many bones in his body had been broken. The once all-powerful Gold Group's strongest expert was now just an old man with one foot in the grave.
"Why did you save me?" Craftsman glanced at Tang Yu. His tone did not change much, as if he had calmly accepted everything: failure and death.
"I wouldn't have saved you if I wasn't sure you were going to die," Tang Yu answered honestly.
"Hehe, such an unlikable opponent, Tang Yu -san," Craftsman chuckled.
"But to be honest, I don't know why I saved you. Maybe it's because I don't want to see someone as strong as you die without a whole corpse … That's all I want to do now. After the scan, you won't live for more than a few minutes. I'll bury you. Any last words?" Tang Yu said.
"I don't say thank you to my enemy, so I have nothing to say." Craftsman closed his eyes.
Tang Yu smiled. "You're not the strongest person I've ever met, but you're the strongest opponent I've ever faced. But this time, I wasn't the one who defeated you. "
He shook his head. "As you said, I'm far from being a strong person. But even a child with a gun can kill a martial artist who has been training for decades. If it's used on me, I might not become a strong person who can crush the sky with a punch, but a strong person like that will eventually fall under my feet! This is my path! "
For some reason, Tang Yu suddenly felt like chatting.
Shi Craftsman suddenly opened his eyes and said slowly, "I started practicing swordsmanship at the age of four. I had some success at the age of eighteen. I opened my own dojo at the age of twenty-seven. At the age of thirty-two, I started traveling around, faced many challenges, and participated in many TV shows. My goal was to increase my popularity and promote my dojo. Later, because I never lost and gained some fame on the internet, I was called the Sword Saint. Then, at the age of fifty-six, I suddenly died of a heart attack and came to the System Space … "
"Actually, even if I didn't come here, my life would still be complete. But in my first mission as a newbie, I met Kazumi. At that time, compared to others, I still had the ability to protect myself, so I led them to survive until now. Hehe, dying on the battlefield was one of my wishes. Unfortunately, I didn't make it to the end. "
