Unless one is like Winner, who can obtain continuous luck, even that comes at a price.
More or less, that strange "Madam Rose" will take something from him.
The price changes frequently, and even Winner himself can't be sure.
Even his "eyeball" can be taken. Perhaps Madam Rose will take his life at any moment, and he won't be able to resist.
A removed eyeball can be repaired by a good doctor using miraculous secret techniques.
But if his life is gone, the secret technique to revive him might be too late.
Madam Rose prepares the so-called "lucky rose" for Winner; she is definitely pursuing something.
There's no such thing as a free lunch. Such good fortune definitely comes at a price.
And, most importantly, luck isn't omnipotent.
If you encounter an enemy so powerful that they are almost impossible to defeat, even the highest luck is meaningless.
Winner can kill a Void Breaking Stage 4 Bat King at Void Breaking Stage 2, which is already a limit.
Below the fifth stage, the possibility of winning against the strong still exists.
But after reaching the fifth stage, the strength of the strong undergoes qualitative change. At this point, it is difficult to win against the strong.
Even when Winner was talking to Madam Rose, the rose had already conveyed its meaning.
"This will be difficult."
But Winner was unwilling to back down, showing that he is a very brave person.
"Don't worry, if I were to fight Shuten-dōji one-on-one, I would definitely not be his opponent."
"But if I join forces with you, the chances of winning are still very high. Let me, this lucky kid, provide some help."
Winner smiled, assuming that this would be the case.
If it were a one-on-one fight, the strength gap would be too great, and he would have no chance of winning.
No matter how lucky he is, he can't possibly kill Shuten-dōji with a gun.
Even if he fired all the bullets and hit all of Shuten-dōji's vital points,
it would be meaningless. Shuten-dōji can't be killed with a gun.
But if he relies on the help of his companions and doesn't fight as the main force,
but instead acts as a support throughout the whole process, becoming a lucky charm, there is still a chance.
"Your statement is quite interesting. In any case, we have to face that guy."
"And, don't think too much. The goal of this initial confrontation is not to eliminate him."
"The moment of the final battle has not yet arrived. Neither he nor we probably want to decide the outcome too quickly."
Jiang Wang said, this is the so-called "preliminary battle."
He only hopes to obtain more information about Shuten-dōji through this probing battle.
And with the information, he can arrange targeted strategies to increase the chances of winning the final battle several times.
Jiang Wang still has his ultimate trump card that he hasn't used yet.
So far, none of the Zerg units have taken action.
If there is a risk in battle, it is inevitable, but if Zerg forces are added to the battle,
then the battle risk will be minimized, and they will become the ultimate victors.
Chapter 697: Attack
Heras had just received a message from Jiang Wang when he soon saw a strange child.
The child was as delicate and lovely as carved jade, and it was difficult to tell whether it was a boy or a girl. He was dragging a gourd that was taller than himself with one hand.
As he slowly approached, the air seemed to become moist, and a strong smell of alcohol permeated the air.
"Master Jiang Wang, I think I have encountered the enemy you mentioned."
Heras transmitted the information and immediately became vigilant, already in a battle stance.
"People from the Holy Temple, but I feel like you're a bit different from those blockheads."
Shuten-dōji said. His voice was extremely childish, and even his eyes were clear.
This child looked quite cute, the type that all parents would want.
"You are Shuten-dōji, a real monster."
Heras said. This was his first impression of the enemy. To be honest, he felt that the situation was not good.
He couldn't see through the person in front of him. The difference in strength was too great.
"I'm not a monster. You're being too rude."
Shuten-dōji said, gently shaking his head. He stopped his steps and slowly opened the stopper of the gourd.
The rich smell of alcohol seemed to completely contaminate the surrounding air. The smell was too strong.
Heras looked at the enemy in front of him, but his heart calmed down.
The enemy was very strong. He couldn't see the slightest difference in strength.
Compared to a high mountain, the gap is naturally endless. This gap would have made others despair long ago.
But for Heras, he didn't have any special emotional changes.
Despair? Sorrow? Fear? These were all emotions that Heras had never experienced.
If he had to say how he felt now, beneath the calmness, there was actually a hint of excitement.
"Feeling the difference in strength, you're not thinking about running away. Is it because you're too scared to move?"
Shuten-dōji grabbed the gourd and began to drink.
"If I were to run, I would probably be instantly killed by you. I have that kind of intuition."
Heras said, squinting his eyes. He had already noticed the strangeness here.
"That's right, I would kill you in an instant. Your feeling is correct. You're quite perceptive."
Shuten-dōji drank the wine, his eyes became cloudy. He smiled, and wine dripped from the corner of his mouth.
"Then, without further delay, let's start fighting directly."
Heras said, stretching out his hands. Huge wings formed of light appeared behind him.
"Come on, when drinking, there should be some 'snacks' to go with the wine."
Shuten-dōji said, raising his pink little arm, and his jade-like index finger beckoned at Heras a few times.
Heras understood that there was no need to hold back against such an enemy.
As a challenger, the only thing he could do was to go all out.
The light wings instantly unfolded, and endless beams of light swept forward, forming an impenetrable super barrage.
Shuten-dōji sneered, as if such means were just child's play in front of him.
Blue light began to appear on his fingertips, and surging power began to spread out.
Violent Bursting Finger Nail, the light beam barrage was instantly cleared.
It was as if he had used a one-button screen clearing function to watch a video. The comment barrage instantly disappeared.
The whole world became extremely clean. Shuten-dōji picked at his ear with his little finger.
"The corpse is moving. You are already a dead man."
Shuten-dōji said, glancing at his little finger, and then blowing a breath.
"With just this level of strength, you can't do anything."
The childish feeling on the child's face disappeared, replaced by a contradictory sense of maturity.
He was clearly a cute little devil, but at this moment, his face collapsed, revealing cruelty and ferocity.
This contradictory feeling permeated every part of Shuten-dōji's body.
"The power you just used, is it the power of the world's origin?"
Heras felt very familiar because he had experienced that power up close.
"But, isn't your power system related to the abyss?"
Heras recalled the Humanoid Calamity. The injuries on his body were caused by the abyss.
Could it be that the person who caused the damage to the Humanoid Calamity was not Shuten-dōji?
"Hmm? It seems you know quite a lot. You even know that I can use the power of the abyss."
"Did the Humanoid Calamity tell you? That guy is tight-lipped, and didn't reveal the most crucial information."
Shuten-dōji grinned at Heras, his expression becoming gloomy.
Heras felt his scalp tingle. At this moment, a terrifying aura appeared on Shuten-dōji's body.
And Heras was also very familiar with this power, it was the power of the abyss.
"Come to think of it, you are a world devourer. There is no problem with running the power of the origin."
"I'm afraid the abyss is your core power."
Heras said, frowning.
"Wrong, wrong, all wrong. The power of the origin is my foundation, the abyss is just the power of my 'half-body'."
Shuten-dōji gently raised his hand, and a shadow began to spread rapidly.
The aura of the abyss became more and more obvious, and the power controlled by Shuten-dōji became even more astonishing.
The power of the origin and the power of the abyss, these two powers appeared alternately, and the blue and dark black auras were intertwined.
"Come out, my half-body, come out, Yamata no Orochi."
