Chapter 615: A tricky way to get out of a dead end

Wait... Flash kill...

Xia Shou suddenly thought of the description of the price of seeking death: you can only choose the most dangerous path to move forward, and move forward at least 100 meters, and you cannot turn back.

The description of cost means moving forward, not retreating, and not turning back.

What if he lets Edward attack him, and then uses [Flash Kill] to exchange positions with a passerby, wouldn't he be able to increase the distance between himself and the finish line?

The range of the flash kill is fifty meters. Just use it twice and you can free up a distance of one hundred meters!

But does this kind of tricky approach count as a violation of cost?

Moreover, the consequences of violating the cost are described for other skills, but not for seeking death, which is really disturbing.

Do you want to try it?

This thought flashed through Xia Shou's mind and was quickly rejected.

Whether this method can successfully circumvent the judgment of seeking death is not discussed for the moment. Within three seconds after using the flash kill, you cannot use any abilities other than the flash kill. This restriction is too great.

Since the mastermind behind this might be a traitor, it is very likely that he also knows about the existence of the shadow, just like the Death Note.

The story of how he killed all the people in the funeral home without any injuries had already spread, and it was easy for the other party to guess that he had achieved a flash kill.

An enemy who could set such a sophisticated trap would not have failed to take this detail into account.

The other party's plan was so meticulous, but after he looked back, he did not immediately launch a second round of assassinations. This shows that the conditions are not yet ripe, and the other party is waiting for certain conditions to be met before making the final attack.

Maybe he was just waiting for him to use the flash kill.

Xia Shou stood there, motionless. Passers-by around him kept casting puzzled glances at him, and Edward's outstanding appearance attracted some people to stop and look at him.

As more and more people gathered around, Xia Shou saw more and more things. His psychological pressure increased as time went by. Standing on the street in the hot summer, even if the temperature was lower than usual, he would be sweating profusely after a while.

"Don't you want to contact the bureau?" Edward asked softly.

"Wait a little longer." Xia Shou replied.

Unless Shangguan Yan is contacted, it would be difficult for those who are not aware of the situation to cooperate and seek their own death.

If we let others do it, even if they cooperate, they will reveal some characteristics of seeking their own death.

Xia Shou raised his hand, a red mist-like flame rose, and the Blood Demon Mask appeared in his hand.

Xia Shou put the mask on his face, gathered the blood-terrorizing revolver, and fired at his own head.

"boom!"

Xia Shou's entire head exploded, blood splattered, and red crystals grew on his head, but the blood did not fall to the ground. Instead, it turned into tiny droplets and became a red blood mist that enveloped Xia Shou.

In the crowd, some people saw this scene and screamed shrilly, while some people turned a blind eye and instead cast strange looks at those who were screaming.

"Ordinary people's indifference to weirdness has also decreased." Xia Shou sighed in his heart. Under normal circumstances, weird phenomena of this degree would be directly ignored by mortals. As long as it did not involve abnormalities in the mortals themselves, they would turn a blind eye.

But since extraordinary powers have continued to pour into Jiangbo City, the city has begun to become restless, and even the conditions of ordinary people have become abnormal.

"What are you doing?" Edward asked in shock, with an incredible look on his face.

Behind the mask, a liquid head made of blood has taken shape.

"Hit me!" Xia Shou said to Edward.

"What?" Edward looked at Xia Shou in confusion. "Hit me!" Xia Shou repeated in a low but very firm tone.

Edward didn't hesitate any more and punched Xia Shou in the body.

The moment the fist touched Xia Shou's face, Xia Shou disappeared. Edward's fist hit a stranger who was knocked to the ground, while Xia Shou moved forward fifty meters!

Crossed the end of the dead line!

At the same time, Xia Shou also accurately sensed the increase in the distance he had advanced.

The increased distance is not fifty meters, but this just verifies some of the mechanisms of self-destruction.

"Success!" Xia Shou said in surprise.

Although you can't turn back!

However, when you encounter a death route where the end is right in front of you, you can take advantage of it by moving forward instantly and crossing the end!
Xia Shou turned around and found himself on the other side of the dangerous end point. He only needed to use the flash kill once more to clear the remaining meters, and then he would be free!

Although you cannot use any skills for three seconds after using the flash kill, the continuous skills that have been used will not be canceled, so the pseudo-blood demon state can still continue!
Three seconds...will you attack?

I just need another brush!
Xia Shou even felt a little excited. He really wanted to see what method the other party used to kill him instantly without any fatal sense.

Xia Shou's spirit was stretched to the limit, and he paid close attention to his surroundings. Alice had already stolen the attention of the people around her.

The flow of time became very slow in Xia Shou's perception.

The first second passed, and he saw the man who was knocked to the ground by Edward just reacted and showed an angry expression.

The next second, he saw a waiter from the chicken steak shop on the street next to him was so distracted by the fun that he dropped his ice cream into the frying pan.

In the third second, he saw Edward take out a dozen red bills and a dozen green bills from his pocket, and then the anger on the beaten man's face instantly disappeared, revealing a confused expression.

In the fourth second...the line that was the most dangerous just now suddenly disappeared!
"What?!" Xia Shou was shocked.

What does it mean?
The other party suddenly doesn't want to kill him anymore?

Or was it because I had violated some of the prerequisites for the assassination, causing the other party to give up on the assassination?

The surprise only lasted for a moment, and Xia Shou immediately returned to alert mode.

We must not take it lightly. He didn't die because of this line just now. The opponent doesn't have a fatal line of death, and there are ways to kill him!
While thinking, Xia Shou moved forward along another most dangerous death route after the change to pay the already small price.

He had only taken a few steps when the price was paid, and Edward had successfully reconciled with the innocent passerby who had been beaten.

"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly so excited?" Edward walked towards Xia Shou, constantly looking at the passers-by around him.

"It's okay." Xia Shoudong looked around, still unable to recover from the extreme pressure just now.

Edward sighed, "This is too sudden. You are simply exposing all your supernatural intelligence."

Xia Shou knew that what Edward said was right. He was already being watched by a large group of outsiders, and there was a large group of people following him. His actions just now were equivalent to leaking some of the strength information.

But there is no way around it. The danger just now was completely unknown.

No matter how much information about superpowers is leaked, it is better than dying.

"Let's go back first." Xia Shou said in a deep voice.
