At this moment, He Ao turned around and looked at Rockwell, whose face had lost all its smiles and was ashen.
He slowly raised his knight's sword, the tip touching the ground, and revealed a somewhat cold smile.
"Uncle Rockaway, it's our turn now."
Calvin, a little later.
Chapter 787 Believers in Eternal Light (Mega Chapter, Requesting Monthly Tickets)
He had two purposes in talking to Lockwell.
One was to extract information to determine whether Lockwell was the mastermind behind pushing Ilo down the road.
Secondly, it was to divert Rockwell's attention and rescue the little girl in the red dress who had been helping him and had a deep connection with the church.
He had just made a surprise move, knocking away Locke's scalpel and saving the little girl in the red dress. However, the little girl was still next to Locke. Given Locke's strength and vigilance, if He's intentions were too obvious, Locke might prioritize 'killing' the little girl in the red dress.
Therefore, He Ao first had to steer the conversation toward himself to divert Lockwell's attention.
There is an information gap here: Lockwell himself did not know that Heo and the little girl in the red dress had been in contact before, and this was also revealed in his words.
Given Lockwell's perception of Ilo's parents as 'righteous and good people,' he would subconsciously believe that Heo's rescue of the little girl was just a spur-of-the-moment decision. At this point, by following Lockwell's lead and deliberately stepping into his 'reverse psychology,' the goal of feinting to the east while attacking the west can be achieved.
"Little one, I'm amazed by how you've grown."
Locke raised his hand, and invisible threads spread from his fingertips into the depths of the void. In an instant, a terrifying aura enveloped the entire hall. Cracks spread across the wooden chair beside him, and then with a 'bang,' it exploded into countless wood chips.
These scattered fragments instantly obscured the core area of the hall, blocking everyone's view.
He Ao waved his hand lightly, then raised his sword, stood up, and charged forward in an instant, his entire body disappearing into the flying debris.
The little girl in the red dress behind him started jumping, her body spinning outwards and flipping in the air before she dodged away from the spot.
scandium--
Invisible threads swiftly pierced through the area where the two stood.
"Have you figured it out?"
Rockwell narrowed his eyes slightly behind his round-framed glasses, and his figure vanished instantly.
A pure white streak of light sliced through the flying wood chips and appeared where he had just been standing.
A trickle of blood seeped from beneath the boy's pale skin. After his attack missed, he didn't hesitate and immediately swung his sword, turning around to slash behind him.
scandium--
The pure white knight's sword collided with the dense, fine lines that cut through it, and behind these lines was Locke's face, which showed a slightly surprised expression.
The next second, He Ao focused his divine sense on the knight's sword and instantly activated the sword's original enhancement array. The sharp blade cut through the thin lines and slashed towards Lockway's face.
"interesting."
Lockwell raised his hand and put away the thin thread, staring at the knight's sword in He's hand. He then stepped back and disappeared once again into the flying wood chips.
Watching this scene, He Ao sheathed his sword and quietly observed the flying wood chips around him.
In normal vision, these sawdust particles would obscure the invisible thread in Rockaway's hand, making it harder to detect and thus creating an advantageous position for him.
However, in He'ao's spiritual vision, although these flying wood chips were also composed of scattered patterns, their composition was far less conspicuous than those threads that were also composed of extraordinary power.
If we are talking about spiritual vision
If the sawdust was sand and dust, then the fine threads were cables radiating dazzling light, clearly visible in He'ao's vision.
Of course, Rockaway was unaware of this; he probably still thought he was hiding it very well.
He Ao held the sword in one hand, the tip touching the ground, and 'vigilantly' watched his surroundings.
Immediately afterwards, an invisible thread passed through the flying wood chips and wrapped around the knight's sword in his hand. Then, the thread tauted and pulled hard, trying to snatch the knight's sword directly from He's hand.
However, even after the thin thread tightened, it did not pull the knight's sword away from Heo's hand.
boom--
With a deafening roar, the rock floor beneath He'ao's feet shattered instantly. His other hand, which had been hanging in front of him, suddenly gripped the hilt of the knight's sword and pulled it back.
The figure hidden behind the wood chips clearly did not expect He Ao to be prepared. With a sudden movement, the figure failed to seize the sword and was pulled out of the mess of wood chips by He Ao's sudden pull.
Although the thin thread wrapped around the hilt loosened the moment Heo pulled, causing him to lose his footing, Lockwell's figure had already been pulled out of the wood chips.
He Ao took a step forward, activated his Hyper Memory, and drew his sword like a flash of light. Using a heavy strike technique, his body swept through the void, instantly slashing towards Lockeway's chest.
This was the opportunity he had been waiting for.
The two times Lockway disappeared in front of him were not true 'disappearances', but rather he borrowed some of the power of the inner church to increase his speed to a level that even Heo could not catch up to when he activated his super memory.
Since he couldn't catch up, Heo simply decided to wait and expose the sharpness of his knight's sword, hoping that Lockwell would come up and take his weapon.
This also took advantage of the information gap that Locke was unaware of, as his clairvoyance could see through the disguise of invisible fine lines.
Lockway had not expected Heo to suddenly burst out with such speed. At this moment, his body was affected by the previous pulling force of Heo, and he was propelled forward by inertia. It was too late to dodge.
scandium--
Countless fine lines converged in front of Lockwell, while at the same time, several invisible fine lines appeared behind Howo, slicing towards Howo's back.
The thin line blocking Lockway's path was suddenly severed by Heo, and the sharp blade approached Lockway's chest.
There wasn't enough time for the broken threads to regroup in front of him, so Lockway quickly pulled on the threads that were hurtling towards Heo's back, trying to force Heo to defend himself.
But Heo didn't turn his sword back at all. Instead, he slashed downwards with his sword, suddenly cutting towards Lockway's chest without hesitation.
In that extremely short time, Rockaway planted both feet on the ground, jerked back to avoid the attack, and released the silk thread in his hand.
He drew his sword, spun it around, and passed by Lockwell.
"Little madman..."
Lockway's body spun and flew out, crashing to the ground with a deep, bone-revealing wound on his chest, through which his beating heart could be faintly seen.
Blood, glowing with an orange light, continued to gush out, staining his gold-threaded white robe crimson.
boom--
He Ao plunged his sword into the rocky floor and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
The sharp threads on his large down jacket were slashed across his back. Even though Rockaway managed to retract the threads in his escape attempt, they still remained.
Three deep scars were left on his back.
However, compared to the damage to his body from using his super-limit power, activating super memory, and martial arts techniques at a high intensity, these injuries are nothing.
At this moment, almost all of his skin was covered with a thin layer of blood, making him look like a blood-soaked man on the verge of death.
"Your life is fading away, you are dying,"
Lockwell noticed Heo's condition. He staggered to his feet, looked at Heo, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"Indeed, a child cannot suddenly gain great power. You traded your life for some kind of 'gift.' Now, every time you use your superhuman power, you get one step closer to death. Your soul is such fine spiritual material. What a waste."
"Everyone will die."
He calmly pulled the knight's sword from the ground. "But the length of life is relative. I just need to live longer than my enemies."
Rockwell's expression changed slightly. He straightened up, and pendants emitting a light golden light fell into his palms, where he crushed them instantly.
In an instant, layers of muscle rose from beneath his skin, and writhing granulation tissue emerged from his wound, coalescing to stop the bleeding. He gazed at He Ao and said slowly,
"Children always like to say some wild and unrealistic things. I hope that the soul you leave behind can make up for my loss this time."
He also calmly watched his wound begin to heal.
Just now, under the vision of divine sense, Rockwell only had one large energy gathering point, which was located in his chest.
However, just as Heo seized the opportunity and shattered the large energy convergence point, Lockwell's energy circuit did not collapse, but instead dispersed into four smaller energy convergence points.
This was the first time He Ao had seen this kind of two-layered energy circuit structure.
The first layer has only a single energy gathering point, but this energy gathering point is larger than a normal energy gathering point.
The second layer has multiple energy gathering points, which are much smaller than ordinary energy gathering points, and even smaller than the energy gathering points of the multi-energy gathering point life forms that He Ao had seen before. However, these energy gathering points can still maintain the energy circuit of the entire body.
Judging from the size of these energy gathering points, He Ao believes that Rockwell probably doesn't have a third layer of energy gathering points either.
This two-layer energy circuit is clearly somewhat 'deceptive'.
However, the solution is actually similar to the 'one main and multiple secondary' energy gathering points that He Ao had seen before: first destroy one main energy gathering point, and then destroy the remaining multiple secondary energy gathering points.
However, this form of multiple energy convergence points also reflects another 'fact': Rockaway's body has undergone some kind of 'modification', and he is no longer human, even a long time ago.
Based on He Ao's experience, humanity has only one energy gathering point, and if it is killed, it will die.
Only those 'monsters' who have come into contact with mythical power and whose bodies have been modified by it will have several energy convergence points.
"You've turned yourself into a monster?"
He looked at Lockwell, lightly
He gently raised his knight's sword, watching warily at his now fully swollen body.
This intensification happened extremely quickly, almost in the blink of an eye. At the same time, Lockwell was very vigilant and did not give Heo a chance to attack.
“This isn’t a monster, it’s ‘grace’,”
Lockway, his entire body filled with bulging flesh, stared at Heo with a slightly cruel smile, streaks of bright red blood spreading between his teeth. "This is power far greater than that of a human. Aren't you envious?"
"I just feel you're getting uglier and uglier."
He looked at him and shrugged.
"An arrogant little madman."
Locke's expression changed slightly, and he leaped forward, pouncing towards Heo.
The same words can have different impacts on different people. As can be seen from Rockwell's initial meticulous appearance, he was actually a person who paid great attention to his image.
He jumped to the side in advance, dodging Lockway's attack.
A massive fist slammed into the floor, shattering several rocky slabs and sending stones flying everywhere.
The inner chapel hall is much more solid than the surface world.
Judging from Locke's actions and explosive power at this moment, his enhanced physical attributes should be close to 5,000.
His original physical attributes were close to 3,000, slightly weaker than He Ao's. With the blessing of the inner church rules, he could achieve a speed of close to 4000. Now, after a wave of enhancements, his speed alone is probably close to 6000.
