I am the king of fighting!

Chapter 263

Day 4, [Klausa VS 'Maxima']

It seemed to be the most evenly matched match. Krauser was as strong as ever, and the oppression was extremely strong. Whether it was close-range throwing techniques, judo or long-range lightning balls, Caesar waves, or super-kill instant kill storms and infinite ambitions, he could do them all with ease. The golden aura derived from Qin's secret book was luxurious and powerful, and his fighting power was much higher than Rugal who did not have the power of Orochi.

'Maxima' looks very young, but his moves are very sophisticated, his aura is very ordinary, without any distinctive blue and white aura. He relies entirely on his excellent physical fitness and predictive ability. His moves are very common, and he has no special moves at all.

After all, no one would shout out their moves in real life, and many combos seen in battles are actually made up of ordinary attacks.

Lin Xi watched the whole process. He noticed that Klausa's aura contained a strong spiritual aura. During the battle, his strength, speed, and aura were all increasing at a fast rate. With his vision, he quickly determined what kind of gameplay this was.

It was somewhat similar to how he integrated his soul and spirit into the electric current, integrating his spirit into the air in exchange for a stronger air than the attribute attachment. As his spirit became more excited in the battle, his air would also increase rapidly. It was entirely possible to guess that when this road came to an end, he should be able to survive without his body with his spirit and his own strength—

The brothers Qin Konglong and Qin Hailong?
He quickly thought of the immortal pair that had lived for a thousand years. Qin Wanglong really had something. He deduced it based on the earth's consciousness. More than two thousand years ago, others had developed similar things based on their own intelligence.

The key is to integrate the spirit into your own power. It is not a meaningless thing. Electric current is because it automatically devours the spirit. Ordinary Qi does not have similar characteristics. It is estimated that it requires some special skills and a certain level of talent to achieve it.

Even if you become Klausa, you may not be able to live for a thousand years like the ancestor of the Qin family.

Of course, shortcomings are shortcomings, but strengths are also real.

'Maxima' seemed to have displayed his skills to the extreme and tried hard to win, but he was still no match for Krauser, who was firing on all cylinders and fighting seriously. He tried to probe, fight, use guerrilla warfare, and fight head-on, but in the end he was truly defeated by one move and was defeated by Krauser's super ultimate and unlimited ambition.

After the referee announced the result, Krauser looked at his opponent lying on the ground with admiration, then calmly went upstairs to the next fight location.

Lin Xi, contrary to her usual behavior, came to Maxima and offered her hand to support him.

"Snap~" Maxima grabbed his wrist and prevented him from touching his body.

The two looked at each other, and their expressions changed many times.

[This guy... has such a sharp intuition. He can find out my problem even with this? If he touches me, I'm afraid the traces of the transformation of the Creation Secret Art in my body will not be concealed at all.]

Maxima's mind was filled with thoughts. He slowly loosened his palm and stood up with his other hand supporting the ground. He didn't think that his modified body could deceive the founder of the secret art of creation through the future technological chip.

He did let down in this battle. His purpose of participating in the competition was just to board the spaceship. Unlike that naive boy, changing the historical node was not important to him. What was important was to change his own and his sister's life.

In the first half of his life, he lost his sister and his memory, and endured endless painful transformation in the Nest. It was not until the major events in the United States and serious riots in the Nest base that he was able to escape in a daze and wandered in the wasteland full of nuclear radiation.

With his transformed body and good talents, he struggled to survive and regained his memory.

After the coming of the Kingdom of Heaven, the war between mankind and the Kingdom of Heaven broke out. Both the remaining remnants of Shadow Luo and the Yin Nest that exposed its evil face became the main force of the war. Too many people died in that war. Because of Yin Nest, he always wandered indifferently outside the battlefield and in the wasteland for more than 20 years, until the hidden dangers left by his childhood transformation broke out. In order to survive, he could only join the experiment led by Yin Nest to reproduce the secret art of creation.

Among dozens of first experimental subjects, only he managed to survive and complete the first round of transformation. Then, based on the original body Sudum, after he survived dozens of rounds of transformation, the nightmare man broke into the headquarters of the Nest in space.

【Heavenly Entity】

A monster controlled by the Great Snake Clan, who was powerful enough to destroy the world, broke through the earth's gravity naked, rushed into space, and directly destroyed the headquarters of the Nest with a dark red qigong wave. He entered the escape device in the laboratory and fell to the earth in a hurry. The escape device had an unknown malfunction and froze him for decades before someone dug him out from his sleep underground.

I would like to ask, will he choose to save the world?
Even if the world is saved, what about his life?

Maxima thought calmly, [I won't save the world, you've got the wrong person, selfishness is my nature]

Even though his appearance remained youthful due to reconstructive surgery, his heart had already aged a long time ago, and he had never owed the world a single thing.

[Sure enough, he hid a lot.] Lin Xi recalled the speed and strength with which Maxima intercepted his palm just now. It was very strong, so strong that even he was not sure of defeating him.

But why lose on purpose in the first round?

In silence, Maxima wiped the blood from his chin, brushed past Lin Xi, and walked towards his room. When he reached the corner, he glanced over and saw Locke leaning against the wall with his arms folded. The two of them exchanged glances, but neither said anything.

After today's game, the stairs leading to the third floor have been opened. After five days of rest on the third floor, the semi-finals will begin.

"Such power and skill..."

Lin Xi was still standing in the empty hall, still wondering why such a strong opponent would lose on purpose.

The Bogard brothers did not attend the event after they were both eliminated. They stayed in a room and no one knew what they were plotting. They were not qualified to go to the third floor and could only stay on this floor. Billy Kane disappeared from the second floor on the day he lost, even though he was a full-fledged employee of Howard Consortium. Ryo Sakazaki just went upstairs to the third floor as soon as possible.

At this time, the area around the second-floor arena of the spaceship was quite deserted, with only him alone. For some reason, he suddenly had the strange feeling he had when he boarded the ship, as if the magnetic force was slightly touched by something.

[What is there...on board? ]

Lin Xi tried to spread the magnetic force to explore, but found nothing. He could guarantee that the fleeting feeling was definitely not an illusion. The fighting spirit in his heart that had nowhere to radiate was interrupted and he felt a little bored. After staying for a moment, he went upstairs.

The layout of the third floor is similar to that of the second floor, but the area is much larger. After a short break, the draw for the semi-finals began in the afternoon.

【Lin Xi VS Sakazaki Ryo】

[Locke VS Krauser]

After the draw results came out, Klausa shook his head with regret. He thought he could meet Lin Xi and have a hearty fight with the young man he liked.

Locke's disappointment was palpable. His goal was to defeat Lin Xi in advance, but he didn't meet her in the quarterfinals or semifinals. He could only hope for the finals. Or could Senior Sakazaki Ryo defeat that guy directly? He was a little unsure.

But no matter what, he will try his best to get a ticket to the championship. This is where the trouble lies. The more he is exposed, the easier it is for him to be excluded from the current historical node. His tolerance for error will become lower and lower, and he will need a certain amount of luck.

[Damn it, if K' is willing to help...]

Sakazaki Ryo nodded to Lin Xi in a friendly manner and turned back to his room. For him, whether he won or lost, it didn't matter as long as he could settle accounts with Gis in the end. Even if he didn't like the use of force, the only thing he had left to protect his own dojo was his own strength.

Lin Xi was very happy. She could finally compete with the strong and no longer have to fight with the weak. In fact, it would be fine if she could fight against Krauser. The quality of this King of Fighters tournament was really good. Excluding the Bogard brothers who were forced to be included by Giss, the average level was probably as good as that of the King of Fighters 95 in the game.

As for 96 and 97, it is mainly because the three artifacts and the villains can raise the average line too much, so there is no comparison at all.

Five days passed in a flash. Life on the spaceship was not boring at all. There was a gym, swimming pool, mini cinema, study room, and the network signal was quite good. TV programs from all over the world could be watched. There were physical therapists, nutritionists and other service staff. The food was even more abundant. One could also enjoy the sky and space scenery on the spaceship and watch the spaceship gradually move from South Town to New York. It was quite entertaining at all.

When it was hovering over New York, many fans came to the live broadcast site holding signs to cheer it on, which could be seen clearly through the live TV broadcast.

After Lin Xi had eaten and drunk her fill and adjusted her body to the best condition, she came to the central hall on the third floor, where Sakazaki Ryo had been waiting for her for a long time.

"...GO!" the referee shouted.

"Kiyoshi-ryu - Sakazaki Ryo." Sakazaki Ryo introduced himself, stretched his body, clenched his fists, and took a stance. "Mr. Lin, be careful not to lose to me. I'm betting everything on my fists!"

[Magnetic force·Speed: 30%→50%→80%]

Lin Xi slowed down his breathing rhythm, and magnetic force ran rampant throughout his body. The air was forced to open, and the sound of swishing ...

"Invincible Dragon!"

The two of them started at about the same time and arrived at the center almost at the same time, without any error. The speed that Sakazaki Ryo suddenly burst out was actually able to keep up with Lin Xi's maximum magnetic speed mode.

"Boom!"

"Peng!"

"Peng!"

In the blink of an eye, the two men's fists and feet exchanged dozens of blows, and countless phantoms appeared and disappeared in the air.

【What a pleasure! What a pleasure! 】

"Hahahahaha!"

Lin Xi laughed out loud, and the magnetic force·speed was transformed into magnetic force·force, and he punched out with great force.

Ryo Sakazaki crossed his arms in front of him, took the punch motionlessly, then made a rising dragon posture, using his fist to drive his body towards the chin of the taller opponent.

【Tiger Thunder God】

Lin Xi did not try to take it head-on. No matter how strong he was, he still had to be a little more cautious when facing an opponent whose strength was not that big. Seeing that his opponent's move was lacking in strength, if he really took it head-on he would probably be hit by a whole combo. He emitted magnetic force from his palm and moved backward one meter out of thin air.

Ryo Sakazaki punched into the air, but he didn't stiffen at all. He spun around at an extremely fast speed and kicked out.

【Flying Swallow Swift Kick】

"Bang! Bang!" After several kicks that only hit the defense, he successfully shortened the distance between the two. With the help of the height of the fall, he put his hands on Lin Xi's shoulders, infused a lot of breath, and tried to complete a throw and grab. The continuous and breath-taking terrifying combos well demonstrated the strength of the Invincible Dragon.

But obviously he has never watched Korean Street Fighter games.

Klausa, who was sitting in the audience, shook his head. Basically, everyone present had reached and surpassed the human limits in speed and strength through various methods. Whether it was the Extreme Flow inheritance that was named for constantly surpassing the limits, or his Qin's Secret Book, the gap was not as huge as imagined.

The damage done to each other is still at the same level. Lin Xi's strength is unquestionable, but his body will still be hurt. No matter how hard his body is, it can only withstand more attacks.

What really makes things difficult for others is ignoring the penetration of Qi and its enormous power.

“Bang!” Before Sakazaki Ryo could hold on tightly with both hands, he was hit on the chin by a hook punch. He flew backwards, bounced a few times on the ground, and then jumped up again. The expression on his face did not change much. As the inheritor of the Extreme Flow, his body had been tempered by thousands of hammers, so even such a heavy punch...

[Yeah, it still hurts!] He gritted his teeth and endured the tearing pain, and reconnected his broken jaw with a click.

[Infiltration without any resistance...]

Sakazaki Ryo thought calmly, raised his hand and threw a punch, and a blue and white gas bullet flew out.

【Tiger Fist】

"Pop~" Lin Xi raised his hand and pulled. The excessively strong force directly blew away the air ball formed by the Tiger Fist. It dissipated after bouncing off the ceiling and the ground several times. Accelerated by the magnetic force, his body approached the opponent like lightning.

[Super Kill·Xingtian Dance·Revised]

Fists, kicks, elbows, knees, following the trajectory carefully planned by the magnetic force, continued to accelerate and frantically bombard the opponent. The explosive airflow continued to hit Ryo Sakazaki, who was defending himself with his hands covering his head.

"Om~"

In the final move, Lin Xi placed his hands in front of Sakazaki Ryo and released a large amount of magnetic force from his palms. After a violent buzzing sound, a sonic boom cloud slowly appeared in front of him. On the defensive, Sakazaki Ryo shot out the magnetic force, which was embedded in the wall with a thud at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

"Squeak~" With a teeth-grinding sound, Ryo Sakazaki struggled to climb out of the human-shaped pit. The alloy squeezed around his body was terribly hard, but not as strong as his flesh.

"Then - let's start the next round!"

His aura exploded, layers of light flowed along his skin, he raised his hands, and instantly rushed out to return the favor.

【Dragon and tiger dance! 】
