Chapter 284 Battle for the Cape 27
A full-fledged insane person...
That was how Shiva viewed Feng Bujue then.
"I have miscalculated..." Shiva found cover and mumbled as he caught his breath. "I didn’t expect that the elent to distort the ending of this Killing Ga would not be Understanding Death or King of Shadows but this Feng Bujue, who seems to have popped up from nowhere..."
Being heavily injured by Feng Bujue had completely disrupted Shiva’s plan. Since he entered the scenario, he had used more than four health potions. Initially, he planned to use them after dealing with Feng Bujue, but before the battle even finished, he had already used all of them. This difference might seem small, but it would have huge consequences.
Using the sa recovery item multiple tis in a short amount of ti would decrease its recovery effect greatly. This was one of the darkest settings of the ga; even if the player was loaded and bought the largest inventory and a truckload of recovery items, when it ca to real battles, the only useful potions would be the first few bottles.
Before the end of the battle, drinking one potion ant pushing one’s bottom line several inches forward, and that was sothing Shiva was unwilling to do. Since Feng Bujue had removed the bomb, Shiva’s attitude had changed. He saw hope again; the bloodlust from before also slowly cald down. One would understand it after giving it a calm thought. The reward of this scenario was too important. Shiva believed that with his power, if he gained perfect level equipnt, he might overtake the player ranked first on the ranking.
Currently, perfect equipnt in Thriller Paradise was extrely rare. There were fewer than five in the Auction House, and they were sold for crazy prices. There were quite a few in the Thriller Box, but the players could not afford them. There were forum posts every day saying that the Thriller Box was almost becoming a museum. The players could not afford the good items, and the players were unwilling to buy the not-so-good items because most players wanted to collect more Skill Points to buy a good item directly.
Even though Shiva was ranked second on the combat stat ranking, aside from level and mastery, material-wise, he only had a full body of elite equipnt and a bunch of skills and consumables. The buff from the outfit was negligible. As the leader of a club and a player who had been in the industry for many years, he understood better than anyone else what being first represented.
Like Shanks said, "First is first; second is nothing."
That was the cruel truth.
Every second that Sky Swallowing Phantom Dawn and his Regulation Guild tag sat on top of the leaderboard was a nondescript collection of resources. If getting a perfect equipnt could really help Shiva overco the man, then the victory of this Killing Ga was far more aningful than a scenario, equipnt, or a difference in ranking. Because of that, Shiva had tried to negotiate with Feng Bujue earlier, but he did not expect the man to suddenly beco so irrational.
Shiva reassessed Feng Bujue again... and realized that he could not understand the man. The kid was clever but was also very absurd; he was occasionally very cautious yet at tis rash and lacked concern; he could seriously co up with an accurate and convincing persuasion yet at the sa ti would say things that had no sense at all. This kind of opponent that could not be assessed the regular way gave Shiva the biggest trouble he had ever faced.
"I have to say, your Sorcery Weapon is very convenient," Feng Bujue said as he leaped away to avoid the laser. This bout of attacks was just suppressive fire. Shiva was trying to limit Feng Bujue while he figured out a solution.
"You seem to have good sleuthing mastery too. Even without taking a look, you can know most of the situation around you," Feng Bujue observed. "But after leaving your sight, the accuracy and agility of the stone plates conspicuously fall."
As he spoke, he tossed a grenade toward the cover where Shiva was hiding.
"Don’t push it." Shiva knew that sothing was coming his way without seeing. He took out a cold piece of steel and whacked the grenade away like a baseball. The grenade exploded like a signal, and with that, Shiva leaped out from the cover and rushed toward Feng Bujue at high speed. But as he appeared, he was faced with layers of golden light flying at him.
"Skill? No... Sorcery Weapon!" Shiva’s fighting instinct kicked in then. "He couldn’t tell which direction I would co from. At most, he could predict when I made my move... so... this sorcery weapon can trace its enemy."
Many thoughts crossed his mind, and the cards were already inches close.
"Get out of my way!" Shiva growled and hit with a skill.

Whenever it was a haunted scenario, Shiva’s skill worked every ti. Other than bosses and elite monsters, as long as they had sothing to do with the supernatural, they would be killed in one shot by this combo.
Feng Bujue shot out ten Death Pokers, the combo of Big Cannon. It exhausted him a lot, so naturally, it was quite powerful. However, this ti, Shiva used his main skill with the idea of breaking a fly with a weapon. In comparison, Shiva’s skill was more powerful. With a bang, the cards beca shreds of lights and exploded like fireworks. Shiva successfully defended this swift attack, and Feng Bujue was cornered. Even though Shiva was slightly held back by the Death Poker, as Feng Bujue reentered his sight, Shiva’s Sorcery Weapon beca accurate again. Therefore, when Shiva broke the cards, Feng Bujue was shot at from six directions. The angles were from everywhere, and Brother Jue had issues evading it. If he did not die, he would be seriously injured.
The lasers shot out and left holes in the cent roof and broke two rails, but Feng Bujue was unscathed...
He used an unimaginably strange and hard to describe movent to avoid all the lasers. In that mont, his joints as if loosened, but his limbs were fast and agile. If one had to describe it, it was similar to an extrely agile marionette doll. With the string pulling it, it could swiftly twist its body into impossible positions. It was impossible for a normal human to replicate that.
"Nani!" If Shiva was a villain from Japanese comic, he would say that in shock, but he was not.
As shocked as he was, Shiva’s attacks did not stop. The stone plates would all go into cooldown after shooting lasers, but that bought him very important tactical space. At that mont, Shiva’s Life Points were ninety percent full, and he had half his Stamina Points left. He still had two fighting skills to use, and he had successfully approached Feng Bujue.
On Feng Bujue’s side... with the exhaustion from the Body Enhancent Spell, his Life Points dropped down to forty percent, and he had 188 Stamina Points left. He had put the guns away, and he was holding the Death Poker, which was not good for close combat.
"What the hell?" This ca from Feng Bujue himself. "The attack really missed..."
With a howl, the hamr ca again. Feng Bujue moved to the side and tilted his body upward like he was stretching to evade the swing with ease.
"This is too much... Have I accidentally cleared the conception and governor vessels?"
"It should be asking that question!" Shiva spoke as he used another skill. This ti, it was a kick. A blue-bladed shadow kicked out from Shiva’s leg, and it flew toward Feng Bujue, who was one ter away from him.
"Is this the legendary Rankyaku?" Feng Bujue gasped as he moved into the classic action from Matrix. He leaned his body backward and evaded the attack.
"You have been making us underestimate you on purpose, haven’t you‽" Shiva roared angrily. He also did not know where his temper ca from. After he cald down and thought about it, he realized that the anger was because he realized that the enemy’s physical ability was better than he thought.
"How am I supposed to answer a question like that?" Feng Bujue replied while also searching for an answer internally.
I thought avoiding the spinning kick was a coincidence, but now it does not look like it. The lasers earlier and the wing of the hamr and the kick... is it really the effect of Body Enhancent Spell, or has the enemy’s movent slowed down?
No wait... the difference between us is still there. Be it strength, speed, or mobility, he is stronger than . But... for so reason, I can reproduce highly-difficult, imaginary actions in the ga, and I can assu them accurately. What kind of phenonon is this? Is it because I have gotten so buff that doesn’t show in the ga nu? Hmm... Doesn’t look like this. Wait a minute, I’ve experienced this before... Could it be...
When he was thinking, Shiva put the hamr away and used his bare fists to unleash high-speed punches. In that mont, the shadow of fists covered the sky. Two figures weaved in and out, one advancing and the other retreating. They moved out from the roof and ’walked’ down the side of the building vertically, fighting from the roof to the street.
The superheroes arrived one after another then. Todd did not follow. He was not in the sa gang as the people from the Network, so he had left silently. When they saw this situation, the people from the Network were astounded.
"Should we contact the headquarters of Justice League?" Squire asked.
Damian looked at her, took out the phone, and said rather woodenly, "Let ask Oracle..."
