Chapter 944: The Assassin
“Hahaha! Come on, come on, it’s useless!”
Facing Hu Feng Homi’s fatal assassination, Black Night Sea Bird twisted her body and dodged the bandage with strange movements, all while letting out an eerie laugh.
“Hu Feng Senior, although your attacks are very sharp,” Black Night Sea Bird almost folded her waist completely backward, then resumed a standing posture with movements like rhythmic gymnastics, “but the fact that they can only go straight, that really hasn’t changed at all.”
“But My strongest spear, besides piercing attacks, can also… like this!” As she spoke, Black Night Sea Bird twisted her body and swept her palm horizontally, and the Nitrogen Burst Lance extending from her palm also swept across everything.
Wherever it passed, whether ground or trees, everything was easily destroyed.
Hu Feng Homi just watched her quietly, the black ribbon in her other hand stabbing out continuously like lightning.
Thus, before Black Night Sea Bird’s Nitrogen Burst Lance could attack her, it had already been completely destroyed by Absolute Penetration, leaving only a turbulent flow of nitrogen.
Seeing this, Black Night Sea Bird clicked her tongue loudly and muttered in a voice loud enough for the other side to hear, “What a troublesome woman, can’t she just surrender obediently?”
Hu Feng Homi said nothing, only relentlessly stabbing the bandage in her hand towards the opponent.
Black Night Sea Bird continued to dodge the attacks with comical and strange movements, stubbornly approaching Hu Feng Homi.
Perhaps it was the close distance, or perhaps because of the increased number of attacks, Hu Feng Homi finally understood why this girl could always successfully evade her attacks.
“Your body,” because the distance was too close, Hu Feng Homi also had to turn sideways to dodge one of the opponent’s Nitrogen Burst Lances, then continued to ask, “how much of it is still original?”
“Was I discovered?” Black Night Sea Bird grinned, revealing a hint of a crazed smile, “But that’s really rude, Hu Feng Senior, I only replaced my left arm and a part of my nerves with prosthetics; the other parts are all one hundred percent original beautiful girl!”
No wonder she could perform such strange movements, no wonder she could always evade her assassinations…
Hu Feng Homi nodded silently in her heart. Just as Black Night Sea Bird had just said, her Absolute Penetration had a huge flaw—it could only perform straight-line assassinations, with a simple and crude attack trajectory that was very easy to predict.
As long as one’s nerve reflex speed was fast enough, then one could dodge her attacks.
The difficulty was only slightly harder than dodging bullets head-on.
Hu Feng Homi knew that at least Lin Wuming could easily do such a thing.
And this girl in front of her, presumably, used the “nerve modification” technology she just mentioned to ultimately increase her body’s reaction speed.
In Hu Feng Homi’s impression, Black Night Sea Bird had always been a loner. She was the first person to voluntarily leave the survivor group after escaping the Dark May Project.
As the only two successful cases of the Dark May Project, Black Night Sea Bird’s departure once sparked conversation among the children.
So much so that even Hu Feng Homi, who was never interested in such matters, had heard about it.
“I didn’t expect you to end up back in human experimentation,” Hu Feng Homi shook her head, “Lin Wuming’s hard work to save you was all in vain!”
“Save me?” Black Night Sea Bird sneered, “Lin Wuming didn’t save me, but others! Hu Feng Senior, you need to understand one thing—not everyone wants that kind of ‘salvation’!”
Approaching within five meters of Hu Feng Homi, Black Night Sea Bird moved at high speed while continuously launching Nitrogen Burst Lances.
This time, it was Hu Feng Homi’s turn to dodge.
Unlike Black Night Sea Bird’s strange movements that were “no longer human-like,” Hu Feng Homi’s every move exuded composure, even a hint of laziness. Her movements were very limited in amplitude, yet she could precisely evade every one of the enemy’s attacks.
“I say, Senior, you also underwent nerve strengthening modification, didn’t you?” Black Night Sea Bird, failing to land continuous attacks, couldn’t help but complain.
“It’s your movements that are too slow,” Hu Feng Homi said leisurely—far worse than Lin Wuming.
Black Night Sea Bird, provoked, clasped her hands together and began to gather strength, preparing to unleash a larger-scale Nitrogen Burst Lance.
Her Nitrogen Burst Lance extended from her palm, which had the advantage of convenient aiming and manipulation, but on the other hand, it also limited her attack frequency and power.
Because humans only have two hands, no matter how much Black Night Sea Bird trained, she could only control two Nitrogen Burst Lances at the same time; moreover, the diameter of the “lance” was also limited by the size of her palm, which in turn limited the “lance’s” power.
To improve these problems, Black Night Sea Bird had put a lot of thought into it over the past few years. The former problem of “number of lances” was still unsolved for now, but the latter problem of “size of lances” was not difficult to solve.
—By activating the ability with both hands simultaneously, the two Nitrogen Burst Lances combined into one, and their power naturally increased.
“Too slow!” Hu Feng Homi reprimanded upon seeing this, simultaneously taking a step forward and kicking Black Night Sea Bird’s hands apart with a flying kick.
The girl cried out in pain, her body tumbling backward from the kick.
“What are you doing?” Hu Feng Homi frowned, looking at her opponent.
“You too, Hu Feng Senior,” Black Night Sea Bird responded with a smile, “What are you doing? In My impression, Hu Feng Senior shouldn’t be such a wishy-washy person!”
“You’re really tired of living…” Hu Feng Homi sneered, “Speaking of which, I learned something—to eliminate more enemies, leaving them alive will save Our a lot of time and effort.”
“Hu Feng Senior, you’ve changed…” Black Night Sea Bird sighed while relentlessly continuing her attacks, “Is it because of Lin Wuming’s influence?”
“Also, why aren’t you with Lin Wuming? You made me think he was here too!” Black Night Sea Bird babbled on, “I don’t know if this is lucky or unlucky…”
“You mention Lin Wuming too many times,” Hu Feng Homi said.
“So what?” Black Night Sea Bird escalated, “I’m just stating facts. Does that mean I can’t even say Lin Wuming’s name?”
“Tsk!” Hu Feng Homi’s patience was already thin, and now hearing the other party’s nonchalant attitude, constantly calling out “Lin Wuming, Lin Wuming,” her heart became even more irritated.
Thus, Hu Feng Homi no longer hesitated, and the bandage shot out rapidly, aiming directly at Black Night Sea Bird’s heart.
Hu Feng Homi’s attitude had always been clear—even if she had long noticed that there were some hidden circumstances in this incident, since this guy insisted on seeking death, then she would grant her wish!
