Rachel frowned and backed away. Attacking head on clearly didnt work. She wasnt very proficient at ranged attacks, and if she tried to compete against the false immortal with them, her loss would co even faster than at lee range. If she adopted a turtling tactic like her opponent, nothing would happen. Was her first challenge issued to a false immortal while she was a false immortal dood to be a loss? She had thought she could win in a battle of attrition, but the false immortal really did have an unending supply of bullets. The bullets that were fired and had missed flew back on their own. Thanks to the way the guns and the bullet were constructed, the bullets were reusable.
If you have nothing else left, Im going to end this now, Bullet King said, his eyes narrowing. With a wave of his hand, a massive tal structure appeared in front of him. It was a BAR, one modified to withstand the power of a false immortal. Bullet King smoothly entered the BAR from behind, his body entering a secure cavity within the robots chest. The BARs eyes lit up, and spiritual energy surged out of it in wave, destroying the terrain while forcing Rachel back. A massive tube the size of a skyscraper extended out of the BARs back, and the robot grabbed it with both hands, pointing one end at Rachel. Try not to die.
Rachels brow furrowed, and she condensed a barrier made of ice in front of herself. More and more layers of ice appeared in front of the barrier, aid towards the barrel of the massive gun Bullet King had pulled out. The giant tube lit up, a beam of pure spiritual energy condensing within. It didnt take very long for the gun to charge, and by the ti Rachel had set up her thousandth ice shield, the gun was ready to fire. There was no sound. A laser of spiritual energy spiraled out of the gun, striking the first ice shield. It was destroyed in an instant. The shot didnt even slow down, penetrating through all of Rachels defenses within a second. The only thing she could do was endure it with her body. Luckily, she had strengthened her flesh with tribulation thunder. Even though she hadnt encountered the body tribulation yet, she was already as sturdy a false immortal who had passed it.
When the light from the laser faded, all that remained was Rachels charred figure. Her skin was completely black, and it seed as if her hair and clothes had been burnt away as well. If it werent for the fact she was moving, anyone wouldve thought she was dead. Black lightning crackled from Rachels body as she straightened her back, fixing her posture.
Youre still alive? a robotic voice asked, echoing out of the BAR. Do you understand the difference in strength? I really dont want to kill you. Im sure youve experienced the trauma of having negative karma during your tribulation.
A bloodred line appeared on Rachels charred face as she sneered. The black skin on her face slowly flaked off, revealing her original appearance underneath. Youve passed the tribulation of the mind.
And youve just recently ascended, Bullet King said. You havent even gathered enough spiritual energy to activate the body tribulation. Its ten tis more difficult than the tribulation youve received upon breaking through. Go train for a thousand years; Ill still be around for you to challenge again when youre ready.
Youre a terrible cultivator, Rachel said. Just because of so negative karma, youre afraid of killing ? How did soone like you pass the tribulation of the mind?
I gave you a way out, presenting myself as weak in order to maintain a friendly relationship with you, Bullet King said and sighed. In reality, you arent worth the effort to kill. Youre like a mosquito. I have more important things to do than waste my ti to kill you when all you can do is make itch. Just go away; dont bother . I dont enjoy bullying the weak.
Rachels eyes narrowed. There was a difference between her cultivation base and her opponents, but she wasnt going to use that as an excuse. When she was younger, she had defeated countless numbers of opponents who were in a realm above her, and that was before she had the perfected Moon Lotus Cultivation Technique given to her by the illusionary attacker. Speaking of which, hadnt she unlocked a new function of the illusionary words during her tribulation? It was called a lottery, right? How did it work?
[To use the lottery, you must use ten good-deed tokens per attempt. Currently, you have three good-deed tokens. Good-deed tokens are earned by doing good deeds; however, they are also lost when performing bad deeds.]
In other words, Rachel had to do ten good deeds in a row, use the lottery attempt, and then go back to committing cris? How inconvenient. It didnt seem like there was enough ti to do seven good deeds, so the lottery wasnt an available option. Or, what exactly qualified as a good deed? Rachels brow furrowed. Can I borrow your bracelet?
There was a brief silence. Then, a robotic voice ca out of the BAR. What?
My personal bracelet was destroyed by your attack, Rachel said. Theres sothing I need to check.
Bullet King had no idea what was wrong with his opponent. However, he didnt have to know what was wrong to realize her head didnt work like normal peoples did. If he gave her a bracelet, would that be enough to make her leave him alone? Although it wouldnt be dangerous to kill Rachel, itd still take so ti if she chose to flee. If the empires false immortal used that chance to attack the coalitions capital, stealing from the treasury, the loss wouldnt be worth it. Given how snakelike the empires false immortal was, Bullet King wouldnt put it past her to do that. He placed a bracelet into a compartnt, and it was shot out of a hole in the BARs forearm.
Rachel caught the bracelet and turned it on. It was a fresh bracelet with only the basics installed. With a few taps of the screen, Rachel went online and linked her bank account. Sending donations towards good causes definitely counted as good deeds, right? After donating to seven different places, Rachel asked in her mind, How many good-deed tokens do I have now?
[Ten. However, after this pull, the lottery system is going to be reworked. There is clearly a problem with the way good-deed tokens are obtained. Would you like to draw from the lottery right now?]
Yes. A wheel appeared in Rachels mind. It was split into different slices, each with a description of the prizes they held. Before Rachel could even read one character, the wheel spun, and the text blurred. The different prizes spun beneath the arrow, and when the wheel ca to a stop, her prize was revealed! Nothing.
[Thanks for participating, please try again!]
Rachels expression darkened.
Did sothing happen? Bullet King asked.
No, Rachel said. Its nothing.
Bullet King didnt say a word. Given how wildly this woman behaved, maybe sothing inside of her would choose to leave him alone right now. If he spoke up, shed rember he existed. Wait a minute. Wasnt there an easier way to get rid of this battle maniac? Are you still going to fight ?
Of course, Rachel said.
Follow , Bullet King said. Theres a better battlefield. Also, uh, here. He put so clothes into a compartnt, and those were launched towards Rachel, who was naked. Luckily, the cara she brought to livestream with had been obliterated by the laser gun.
A better battlefield? Rachels brow furrowed. What was wrong with this one?
You want to fight you seriously, right? Bullet King asked. My attacks are too destructive. I dont want to irradiate the planets in this solar system. Of course, that wasnt the real reason. Since this false immortal loved fighting, why didnt he just drag her to the empire and have the two crazy ladies fight each other? Then, hed just find the opportunity to leave. According to his mind that had been sharpened by a tribulation, it was a perfect plan.
