At first, Su Yuan thought that the power—one that resembled the famous sword "Siming"—was powerful simply because it allowed him to survive a fatal blow, thereby increasing his chance of staying alive...
But now, Su Yuan realized that his thinking had been all wrong.
The true strength of this ability wasn’t just in negating lethal damage—it was in the massive burst of movent speed that ca right after!
Initially, Su Yuan assud that this so-called "massive speed boost" would just slightly increase his movent, mainly as an escape chanic attached to the skill...
But after what just happened, he finally understood just how terrifying this "massive speed boost" actually was!
It was as if the entire world had frozen, and he alone could move freely...
In that instant, Su Yuan realized—this wasn’t so escape tool at all...
It was a last-stand reversal ability, tailor-made for cobacks on the brink of death!
So Su Yuan had imdiately dashed straight up to Cloud Retainer, and before she could even react, he had beheaded her with a small knife he carried with him.
Only now did Su Yuan truly realize where the true power of this special and potent ability lay.
Though this terrifying acceleration didn’t last long—by Su Yuan’s rough estimate, it was only about three seconds—
under such overwhelming speed, three seconds was more than enough to do a lot!
Still, this ability wasn’t invincible...
After all, it was a passive skill and could only be triggered once per day.
Granted, the usage should reset after a death-triggered rewind, but even so, once per day was still quite limited...
Moreover, this ti it was only because he caught her completely off guard that Su Yuan was able to achieve such a great outco...
If Cloud Retainer had used Eerie power to restrain Su Yuan’s body from the start—preventing him from moving freely—
then no matter how fast he was, it would’ve been completely useless.
Also, if he were up against an enemy like Azhdaha, whose massive size and formidable defense made him incredibly tanky,
then even with those three seconds of explosive speed—
forget killing the enemy, breaking through their defenses might not even be possible...
"Su Yuan, you really are full of hidden surprises..."
At that mont, Mada Ping’s voice rang out from the side.
She was now watching Su Yuan with extre vigilance as she spoke:
"Immunity to death... terrifying bursts of speed..."
"Just how many secrets are you still hiding?"
"Su Yuan... you truly are a major threat..."
In the next instant, a surge of Eerie power erupted from Mada Ping, forcefully suppressing Su Yuan’s movents once again...
"Cloud Retainer was careless, and that’s why she died by your hand..."
"But as long as I restrain your movents, no matter how fast you are, you won’t be able to use that speed at all, right?"
"I’ll avenge Cloud Retainer—and I want to see just how many tis you can use that death-immunity trick of yours!"
Su Yuan thought to himself, As expected of Mada Ping... so sharp and ticulous—she instantly saw through the weakness of my move.
As long as my movents are suppressed, then no matter how fast I am, it’s all useless...
But at this point, everything was already back on the path he had predicted.
As long as Mada Ping killed him, he’d trigger a death-based rewind—and everything could start over again...
The only downside now was that, judging from Mada Ping’s posture, there was probably no way to get more information out of her this ti.
At the side, Young-Tore looked at the calm and composed Su Yuan and wondered—Why does Su Yuan still seem so at ease?
Does he have another trump card he hasn’t used yet?
However, in the very next mont, Mada Ping unleashed an Eerie-force version of the Shockwave, and in an instant, Su Yuan was blasted into a mist of blood and scattered at...
"So it was just a bluff after all?"
Mada Ping muttered to herself as she looked at the scene...
............
Su Yuan suddenly opened his eyes wide—it was that sa familiar, heart-wrenching sensation again...
Feeling the sharp pain in the center of his left palm, Su Yuan knew that he had died once more.
He raised his left hand and looked at his palm:
[Unfortunately, you have died again, consuming one archive rewind attempt...]
[Current available rewinds: 2.2 tis]
[Cloud Retainer, after all, is an Adeptus. Her Eerie-enhanced strength is far from ordinary—please proceed with caution...]
[At the base of Mt. Aocang, her disciple Shuyu serves as Cloud Retainer’s informant and will report your movents to her...]
[Chongyun’s Eerie transformation is triggered by encountering others who have already been corrupted by the Eerie. He views the Eerie as evil spirits that must be eliminated... However, his strength is still significantly inferior to Eerie-form Cloud Retainer...]
[Mada Ping has also been corrupted by the Eerie, though the cause remains unknown...]
[Dottore is also on Mt. Aocang, but he seems to be seriously injured, and his strength has been significantly reduced...]
[Additionally, for now, the boy’s ultimate goal is to seize the opportunity to possess this Dottore segnt when he lets his guard down...]
[After reaching Mt. Aocang, you may encounter a group of chanical constructs immune to elental power...]
[Show no rcy to these constructs—smash them, mock them...]
[This batch of chanical constructs was not built by Cloud Retainer, but by Dottore...]
[Ridiculing Dottore’s constructs while praising Cloud Retainer’s chanical achievents might help restore her confidence in her own techniques...]
[Also, Neuvillette may arrive at Mt. Aocang not long after your group ascends...]
[Neuvillette’s inner sorrow seems to cause rainfall only in the Fontaine region. Please make the necessary preparations in advance...]
Looking at the densely packed text on his left palm, Su Yuan felt an intense headache coming on...
What in the world did I go through last ti... to end up leaving behind so many detailed information prompts?
At the current mont in ti, everyone was en route to Mt. Aocang—and they could already see its peak in the distance...
"Su Yuan, are you alright?"
Furina seed to sense sothing was off with him and asked with concern.
"It’s nothing," Su Yuan replied.
"I just received so new intel, that’s all..."
Su Yuan responded to Furina in this way, then turned to Chongyun and said:
"Chongyun, how about you don’t co with us to Mt. Aocang for now..."
"I’ve just received so intel regarding the conditions that trigger your Eerie transformation..."
"Your transformation is triggered when you see others who’ve been corrupted by the Eerie..."
"And once that happens, you’ll instinctively try to purge the Eerie—just like exorcising evil spirits."
Su Yuan then proceeded to share the information he had just received with everyone present.
"So, just like we originally planned, our top priority is still to persuade Cloud Retainer—to help her regain confidence in her chanical skills, and thus erge from her Eerie state."
He continued:
"So if Chongyun imdiately tries to fight the mont he sees Cloud Retainer, it’s best you don’t act with us for now."
