"Ah! Damn it!" This time, Xingmaer did not appear in the distance, but was less than two meters away from Wang Chen. He grabbed his right arm with his left hand, his right hand trembled uncontrollably, and his fingers twitched uncontrollably.
"It feels like electric current, right? I have attached electrical energy to your shield. No matter how fast you are, as long as you want to attack me, you will inevitably be shocked by my shield." Wang Chen taunted, then ran forward without even looking at Xing Maer, trying to distance himself from Xing Maer.
In fact, it was not the electric current that was attached to the shield, but the electromagnetic waves. The reason why Xing was electrocuted was not because of her speed, but because the electromagnetic waves could not be stopped by time, after all, the electromagnetic waves were the same speed as light. Therefore, even if time was stopped, the electromagnetic waves could still counterattack Xing Maer. It was just that Wang Chen had no way to further manipulate the electromagnetic to attack Xing Maer.
"Want to run? Time, stop!" Xingmar gritted his teeth and used his strength once again. The surrounding space once again entered a state of stillness.
"Electric current, right? Haha, I'm not afraid of this kind of thing!" Xingmal took out many throwing knives and threw them all in front of the shield.
"I want to see how long you can hold on, you bastard." After throwing the flying knife, Xingmal retracted his strength and let time continue to run.
“Da da da da da ka cha—”
After more than ten flying knives hit one after another, the rock-attributed shield finally broke under the heavy load. However, there were still two flying knives that were not blocked by the shield and stabbed directly at Wang Chen.
"Snapped!"
However, Wang Chen kicked the two flying knives back with a sweeping kick, kicking them towards Xing Maer. The flying knives flew towards Xing Maer, but Xing Maer's figure teleported again and dodged the two flying knives.
However, this time when time stopped, Xing Maer did not directly attack Wang Chen. After all, Wang Chen had already opened up a certain distance from Xing Maer at this moment and was no longer within the range of Xing Maer's holy mark force field.
That's right, Xingmaer's time-stopping force field has a range of action. The time of all objects within the range will stop flowing, while objects outside the range can still continue to change, and time will not be locked. Therefore, the two sides began a strange chase. Wang Chen continued to run, and Xingmaer flashed from time to time to close the distance with Wang Chen.
However, after several flash chases, Wang Chen also learned some characteristics of Xingmar's abilities: First, the range radius of Xingmar's time-stop force field is 10 meters. After all, Wang Chen observed that each of Xingmar's maximum flash distances was within 10 meters.
The second point is that after each use of his ability, Xingmar will not be able to use it again for about 2 seconds. After all, I was counting the seconds when I kicked the flying knife at Xingmar just now. The flying knife was about to hit Xingmar before Xingmar moved away. And after each flash, the opponent would chase me for 2 seconds before flashing again.
Of course, there was an element of Xingmal deliberately showing off his abilities, but it was more because Xingmal was unable to use his strength continuously, otherwise he would have been caught up by the opponent long ago. How come he still couldn't catch up after teleporting three or four times in a row?
"Fortunately, it's not the late-stage Xingmar of Erbengzi... the one with a range that can stop the entire moon. If the distance was that big, I really couldn't escape." Because of the previous hook pull, Wang Chen was already more than 20 meters away from Xingmar after kicking the flying knife. However, with the subsequent flashing of Xingmar, the distance has been continuously narrowed.
And this was the result of Wang Chen constantly using cards to interfere with Xingmar's route. After all, Xingmar was already a stigma awakener, and even if Xingmar ran with his legs without flashing, he, a Phantom Thief who had temporarily hidden his power, could not outrun Xingmar.
"This is the last time time stops! Time! Stop! Hahahaha!" Finally, Xingmal pulled the distance to 10 meters. Along with Xingmal's wild laughter, the time force field unfolded again.
The force field of time once again enveloped Wang Chen, and this time, without the protection of the shield, was Wang Chen going to be slaughtered by Xingmal?
"Hahaha... I've caught you! Die! Die!" Without hesitation, a flying knife appeared in Xingmaer's hand again, but this time Xingmaer was not going to throw it. Instead, he planned to hold the handle of the knife and cut the guy who was jumping sideways with a turtle shell on his head and mocking him with words with his own hands.
"Let's start with yours first! Hahahahaha!!"
Xingmaer laughed wildly, then held the hilt of the knife and stretched it towards Wang Chen.
"Click..."
Suddenly, a very unnatural and strange sound was heard. In Xingmar's space, everything should have been still, time stopped, and the surroundings were very quiet. Only Xingmar's laughter could be heard. However, now, the strange sound made Xingmar stop her hand from cutting Wang Chen.
"what sound……"
"Click..."
"!!!"
Then, Xingmaer heard the sound again, and this time she noticed it! It was because Wang Chen's arm was vibrating slightly, causing the clothes to make the sound.
"! What the hell!" Xingmaer was startled and jumped away immediately.
"It can move!? In this world where time stops... it can actually move!!" Xingmaer looked at the arm that just vibrated in disbelief. Xingmaer was sure that he was not mistaken, the other party's hand really moved just now!
"Could it be..." All of a sudden, Xingmar recalled the figure of that terrifying woman, who had beaten him up severely a month ago. Even though he had used the power of time stop, the other party was still able to move, and left him with a deeply memorable electric shock.
"Same ability as the guy I know." These are the words the woman said before, and now they are lingering in Xingmaer's mind again. Same ability? Is it possible that he is not the only one in the world who has the ability to continue to move in stopped time? Is it possible that the guy in front of him has the same ability?
"Could it be... the same power?" It was no wonder that Xingmaer overreacted like this. The psychological shadow left by that woman was too great. Although Xingmaer always said that he would find an opportunity to avenge his previous shame, deep down in his heart, he was very afraid of that woman. Because of that woman, Xingmaer even changed his habit of swearing. At most, he would occasionally swear a little, but it was no longer filthy.
Therefore, Xingmaer was so frightened when she saw that the other party could move in her own time. She was afraid that the man in front of her would be the next guy to bring her shadow.
Chapter 171 Chen Taro
Xing Maer stared at the man in front of him uncertainly. From what he said before, Xing Maer knew that the other party was a very cunning guy. He had just moved twice, why did he stop moving? Was he planning a sneak attack? Or was he planning to do something else?
"This guy... can he see me all the time? Or..." Xing Maer couldn't be sure. The shadow that the woman had cast on him before was so great that Xing Maer couldn't go to gamble.
"Tsk... Let's test it first."
Xing Maer came directly behind Wang Chen, blocking his way back, and then released the time-stopping force field. As soon as the force field was released, Xing Maer saw Wang Chen also stopped, and then quickly turned around, as if he knew that Xing Maer had gone around behind him to block his way during the time he stopped.
Such a trend undoubtedly strengthened Xingmar's certainty that the guy in front of him might really have the same power as himself.
"Can you see... me?" Xing Maer stared at Wang Chen and then asked.
However, Wang Chen did not answer immediately. He had no expression and just stared at Xing Maer with a calm look. This relaxed attitude obviously put a lot of pressure on Xing Maer and angered him. Xing Maer could not help but yelled: "I am asking you if you can see me! Didn't you hear me?"
"I don't know what you are talking about. I don't quite understand you. Unknown kid." Wang Chen shrugged, and then suddenly moved at high speed. It turned out that when Wang Chen turned around, he secretly threw out the hook and hooked the shelf behind him, and then distanced himself from Xingmaer.
"Tsk! Damn it!" Xing Maer pondered Wang Chen's words and couldn't figure out whether the other party was lying or talking about something, but when he saw that he started to escape again, he had to chase him again.
"Never mind! If you can really move in stopped time, just move in front of me and show me! I can still tear you into pieces!" Xingmaer also jumped up, used the power of time again to flash, and kept chasing Wang Chen.
Wang Chen naturally ignored Xing's words, but secretly rejoiced that he didn't expect that the tricks he learned from comics and TV series could really scare people. In fact, Wang Chen couldn't move in the stopped time now, and he couldn't even realize that time had stopped. The ability to move his hands in a static world before was just borrowed experience and wisdom.
Long before, when he attached electromagnetic waves to the shield, Wang Chen secretly used some tricks. After Xingmar attacked the shield and was electrocuted, the electromagnetic waves were able to magnetize the metal objects on Xingmar's body. He then attached the same magnetic field to his hands, which would eventually cause his hands to move due to repulsion when Xingmar approached him, creating the illusion that he could move in time.
As for whose experience was borrowed, there is probably no need to say more.
Speaking of which, Wang Chen was still sweating when he used this strategy. In fact, he had predicted various situations with [Raiden Mei] long before this Phantom Thief operation. After all, [Raiden Mei] had defeated Xingmaer head-on before. If she was used as a reference, it would be more helpful for Wang Chen to deal with this troublesome opponent who could stop time.
But in the end, [Raiden Mei] said something very strange to herself, saying that even if Xingmaer was really not fooled and intended to hurt Wang Chen in the time-stopped environment, then Xingmaer would be the one who would be unlucky in the end.
Wang Chen didn't understand why [Raiden Mei] wanted to keep it a secret, but [Raiden Mei] said that this was to help Wang Chen, so she couldn't reveal any relevant information, so Wang Chen had to give up. Since [Raiden Mei] said that there was no problem, he naturally believed what [Raiden Mei] said.
"Could it be that [Mei] means... that I will really be like the character in the comics, and because of too much exposure to the power of time stop, I will also awaken the same ability? Then can I call myself Chen Taro? Forget it, let's proceed according to the plan and leave it to Principal Theresa." Wang Chen shook his head and threw away the distracting thoughts in his mind.
In fact, I have made arrangements for Xingmar, which is to let Theresa help deal with it. Now, Theresa should have set up the "trap".
Sure enough, just as I thought of this, I received a text message from Teriri in the Phantom Thieves Group.
Teriri: "Joker, I have already set up everything here, how about yours?"
Joker: "Okay, I'll be right there!"
After sending the message with his mind, Wang Chen started to rush towards Theresa's location, and Xingmaer followed closely behind.
"Don't run away anymore! Come and have a head-on fight with me! Hahahaha! Let's see who is the king in this still world!" Xing was seen laughing wildly to encourage himself, and at the same time, he wanted to defeat the opponent to step out of the shadow and better face the mysterious woman.
Wang Chen, after turning a corner, finally came to see Theresa. Wang Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, and through the tactical eyepiece, he saw the hidden golden chain - the bond of restraint, the oath of Judas. That's right, this is Wang Chen's real trump card to deal with Xingmar.
Relying on the power of the constraint key, Xingmaer cannot properly control his power to manipulate the time force field. This is the so-called sealing skill. Unfortunately, Theresa is in her current state and cannot use Judas' strongest 0th power - the Divine Grace Barrier. Otherwise, let alone the time force field, even the Honkai energy will be completely banned!
At least, in the area of Judah, Xingmar's chaotic timepiece did not work very well.
However, it was not enough to just restrict Xingmar's power. He had to give Xingmar a blow to temporarily defeat him. After entering Judas' range, Wang Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief. He could teach the little devil who was chasing him a lesson and let her know what "being friendly" meant! After Wang Chen signaled Theresa to hide, he turned around and faced the
Xingmaer had been following behind Wang Chen, and suddenly realized that Wang Chen did not continue to run away, but waited obediently where he was, so he raised the corners of his mouth and said with a look of pride: "Why, you know you can't outrun me, so you give up running away?"
"Ah, you are right. Maybe I am not your opponent in terms of speed, but I am confident that I can beat you in terms of strength and accuracy."
Wang Chen replied calmly.
"Hmph! Still pretending to be stupid! You already know my power, so why don't we go to a static world and compete to see who is the real master of time! Stop! Time!" Xing Maer once again deployed his time force field this time, and then rushed straight towards Wang Chen, ready to knock him down with one blow.
"Are you still not willing to move? Then I will cut you into pieces without any mercy... What was it? Never mind! I'm going to chop you into pieces!" As Xingmaer had not received much formal education, he had forgotten some of his words and finally took out a knife, ready to cut Wang Chen into pieces again.
"Click"
With another sound, Wang Chen's arms began to move.
"Come on, come on! Let me see how strong your fist is...Puff!!" Suddenly, Xingmaer felt a sharp pain in his stomach, and then his body flew backwards.
Chapter 172: Xing's Frustration Again
“Puff——!!” Xingmaer only felt a sharp pain in his stomach, and then his body flew backwards.
"What happened? His fist clearly didn't move...!" Xingmaer was still wondering why he was knocked out when the opponent's fist didn't move, but soon, Xingmaer discovered that the opponent was still in a kicking posture.
“Instead of using fists... you used your legs? Damn despicable man, you even have to use tricks for this? But compared to these…” Xing Maer steadied himself and stood firm, laughing wildly, “Very good, as expected you can also move during stopped time, then let’s have a thorough demonstration, hahahaha!”
"..." Wang Chen did not say anything. In fact, Xingmaer's time-stop force field had already ended, but Xingmaer himself did not feel it.
But why did Wang Chen want to point out the misunderstanding? If Xingmar realized that something was wrong and ran away, the retreat process would be very troublesome.
"Shhhhhhh!"
This time, Wang Chen threw a bunch of playing cards again, shooting at Xing Maer like sharp arrows. And Xing Maer did not teleport away like before, but reached for the leg rings tied at the base of his thighs with both hands, pulled out a few throwing knives, and threw them at the playing cards.
"Dang-dang-dang-dang..."
A series of sounds of throwing objects collided. Although Wang Chen's poker and Xing Maer's throwing knives were equally matched, Wang Chen's cards could be automatically collected into his greedy pocket, while Xing Maer's throwing knives were limited and would not be enough if he continued to throw them.
Xing Maer obviously understood this truth. Although he didn't know why the opponent had so many playing cards and could use them endlessly, his own throwing knife reserves were almost exhausted.
"Tsk... If you didn't bring my Titan, I wouldn't have enough bombs and throwing knives." Xingmar's bombs had been used up in the first wave of attacks on the Phantom Thieves standing on the missiles. And now, Xingmar's throwing knives were about to run out.
So Xingmal changed his strategy of throwing flying knives, picked up two knives, and started preparing for close combat.
“Let me tear you into pieces! Hahahahaha… ugh!”
Xingmal, who was still rushing over with wild laughter, suddenly stopped laughing. Even his forward movement came to a halt, and his body was unable to move.
"What...what's wrong? My body...is so slow...it moves so slowly...No! It's not that it moves very slowly...it's that I can't move at all!" Xingmaer found something wrong. His body couldn't move at all. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move at all. He even felt a tightening pain all over his body.
Then, Xingmaer noticed that his hands, feet, torso... it could be said that every part of his body was bound by silk threads that came out of nowhere.
"When did these threads come from...? ! ! Are they those playing cards?" Xingmaer reacted quickly and figured out the key. Just now, when Xingmaer used the flying knife to deflect the playing cards, he felt that there was something wrong with the flight trajectory of the playing cards after they were deflected.
Now, seeing this scene, Xingmaer finally realized that the other party's purpose of throwing playing cards was not to hurt him. Instead, he tied a silk thread and used the method of throwing playing cards to weave a big net and wait for him to fall into it.
"Cricket silk thread, do you think you can bind me?" Xingmar immediately began to use his own strength to break free from these thin threads. However, no matter how hard Xingmar tried, it had no effect except making the bound parts more painful.
"My body, my strength... How could this happen!" At this time, Xingmar realized that something was wrong. His body was weaker than usual. He also noticed that his time-stop force field had been automatically released without his knowledge.
This is why Xingmar cannot break free from these thin threads. These thin threads are not made of any extraordinary material.
"Damn it! What did you do to me!" Xingmar said angrily.
"You underestimate the lethality of electric current to living organisms, kid. Perhaps you don't know that human nerve reflexes and the brain's control of the body are inseparable from the role of electrical signals. As early as the moment you rashly touched the current on my shield, your defeat was already determined. I just need to delay for a while, so that the current can completely paralyze your body and make you temporarily lose control of your body. In this way, no matter how many skills you have, you can't use them."
This is a lie. Wang Chen certainly won't tell the truth. What he said above is just to fool Xingmaer, a fool who has not been to school. In fact, Xingmaer, who has the holy marks, is actually difficult to be paralyzed by lightning power to the point of losing control of his body and Honkai energy. What really limits Xingmaer's power is the power of the restraining keys hidden around him.
The bond of restraint, the oath of Judah, restricted the use of Honkai energy, regardless of friend or foe, and even Wang Chen was no exception. Fortunately, Wang Chen's physical fitness was strong enough to deal with it. But Xingmaer was different. After all, he was restricted by the body of a child and was entangled in the silk thread and could not break free.
"You despicable fellow! If you have the guts, let me go! Release the control! Fight me head-on!" Although Xingmaer didn't understand the so-called nerve reflexes and electrical signals, she already knew that she had been ambushed and could not control her body and abilities, so she could only roar in resignation.
"Fuck-"
"Ah!!!!" The electric current began to pass through the silk thread and was transmitted to Xingmaer's body. Numbness and tingling spread throughout the body. Xingmaer first screamed, and then he couldn't even control his throat to make a sound.
"Kid, let me teach you another lesson. A loser has no right to make conditions with the winner. You lose this round, so have a good sleep." Xingmaer heard the man's last "advice" in her ears when she was blurred in consciousness. In the end, she could only faint unwillingly in anger.
"Huh, it's done. Te Ri Ri, you can come out now. Put your weapons back." Wang Chen shouted.
"It's not Teriri! It's Teriri!" Theresa came out carrying a cross taller than herself. Fortunately, this is a blind spot for surveillance, and nothing can be seen here. Otherwise, such an obvious Judas would immediately expose Theresa's true identity.
Theresa opened the shared treasure bag of the Phantom Thief's tools and stuffed her weapon, Judas, into it. Then she clapped her hands and said, "This bag is really convenient. After putting Judas in, you can just carry the bag, and the quality of the things inside will not affect the outside. You still carry the weight of the bag."
Then Theresa came to Wang Chen, looked up and down at Xingmaer who had fainted, and sighed slightly, "Another child this young. That crazy woman Cocolia is really abominable."
"Well, once we defeat Cocolia, perhaps many things will change. Let's go, the Titans have entered the N3 area, and they will probably find this place soon. They have successfully stolen the 'treasure', and Xingmal has been temporarily dealt with. We have to evacuate as soon as possible. By the way, take Xing with you. Maybe the retreat will be useful next." After Wang Chen finished speaking, he took Theresa and the unconscious Xingmal and immediately gathered with other partners to go to the N2 area.
Chapter 173 Acting (Part 1)
[Raiden Mei] was running, looking at the mess, potholes, damaged shelves, and traces of explosions along the way. [Raiden Mei] couldn't help but speed up a bit. Finally, [Raiden Mei] heard a vibration. It was the sound of the Titan mecha stomping on the ground, moving at high speed. [Raiden Mei] knew that she was very close to her companions.
The light shoes on her feet drew a pale blue light, and [Raiden Mei] rose up again, step by step, and quickly flew towards the stalemate N2 area.
……
On the other side, in the N2 area, although Wang Chen and his companions already knew that the Titan Legion was ambushing here, they saw that the wizard mechas and shaman mechas in the legion were efficiently assisting the mechas in attacking. They saw that the poisonous spider mechas and spider king mechas were staring at them, and if they showed any flaws, they would hit them head-on and block their positions.
There is no doubt that the current Titan Legion is obviously different from the Titan Legion seen before. They are well-trained and well-coordinated, and their attack is very methodical. For a moment, Wang Chen and others had no way to avoid this round of firepower and could only retreat to the N3 area.
But there are still some people in N3 area who caught up with us before.
"It's really a bit difficult. I thought it was just a convenience, but I didn't expect I would have to use it right away." Wang Chen pointed at Xingmaer who had fallen asleep and said.
"Don't worry, I've already hit this guy a few times. I guarantee that he won't wake up and will be very well behaved." Kiana said, shaking the baseball bat in her hand proudly.
"..." Bronya glanced at the smug white-haired ball with a "thank you" expression. She had just seen Kiana hit Xingmar's head with more than ten sticks. If you didn't know, you would think Kiana and Xingmar had some deep hatred.
Phantom Thief Chat Group
Hacking Rabbit: "Now that we have captured Xingmar, it will be much easier to retreat. Next, I will have to take the stage myself. Please cooperate with me. By the way, you can also observe me and see if I can imitate you."
