47: Chapter 28 The Battle of Every Inch of Shadow_3

47 -28 The Battle of Every Inch of Shadow_3

As if the dark night had turned into a viscous liquid, it was then molded into form by a pale flame and finally forged into a blade after bathing in blood.

An ominous black longsword.

The sword was simply too sharp, just the sight of its impending shape was enough to cause a sting in his eyes hidden behind sunglasses.

“I forgot to mention to you that your assistance must not involve creations of the supernatural…

Any items related to superpowers are not supposed to exist in this duel,” said Xu Junyi, as he tapped lightly on the round table, and the not-yet-formed blade immediately dissolved into a burst of light.

The Superpower User’s expression remained unchanged, not upset by the suddenly added rule, “I would have preferred if you had made the rules clear earlier.

Then, I will take this, an individual combat force field protective device.

It is a purely technological product without any supernatural elements.”

He reached toward the round table again, but this time, no item appeared.

Xu Junyi spoke unruffled, “The high-tech weapons of the Firmament City are also beyond common sense for someone like me who lives on the outside.

Such weapons that break the rules should not exist in a fair fight, that’s only right.”

The young man laughed mockingly, “Common sense?

Whose common sense are you using to make these judgements, your own?”

“This is my manifestation, naturally, it’s my common sense that prevails here…” Xu Junyi tapped on the tabletop with his finger, “Don’t think about exploiting any loopholes in a fair duel.

Under my rules, all forbidden aids are impossible to materialize.”

Gongsun Ce had already stopped caring whether the rules were fair or not.

He focused his mind, pondering other weapons he might use, “A portable mind control device.”

“Forbidden.”

“A miniature plasma hand cannon.”

“Forbidden.”

“Biochemical Slime.”

“Forbidden.”

Forbidden, forbidden, forbidden… With each verdict from the giant dragon devotee, all the weapons Gongsun Ce conceptualized failed to materialize.

At this point, the young man with grey hair was looking quite displeased.

Xu Junyi helpfully materialized a stool and said to his opponent with a smile, “Stop daydreaming, kid.

You might as well just ask for a handgun.”

“Tch…!”

The young man with grey hair punched the round table, an act which made him all the more certain of something in his heart.

Xu Junyi laughed silently to himself.

He had deliberately completed the rules one by one earlier to unbalance his opponent’s mentality.

Now his tactics had worked.

When the opponent realized that he could not think of a way to win, stripped of his greatest weapon in battle so far, this young man had already lost his reason.

Xu Junyi was all too familiar with such reactions; whether it be Superpower Users or Impermanence Law Enforcers, the powerful supernatural abilities were often the biggest supports in the hearts of these people.

They often failed to realize that their fights were essentially about using abilities to overcome those without, or using stronger abilities to beat weaker ones, where one could not see the strength of the person themselves, only the inequality brought by abilities.

But once they arrived at a truly fair battlefield, deprived of the advantages brought by supernatural powers, deprived of the ease provided by technology and science, they had no choice but to reveal the weak true self hidden beneath their fortresses…

Far from any mentally resilient warriors, they were just twisted and weak individuals one after the other.

The Superpower User tapped the edge of the round table anxiously, as a crimson mechanical gauntlet materialized before him.

The gauntlet sported an exaggeratedly large semicircular guard and had five small holes at the knuckles, indicating the presence of built-in gadgets at a glance.

Gongsun Ce quickly said, “A multi-functional mechanical gauntlet, equipped with lighting, lock picking, buzzing, and location tracking features, and it comes with one smoke grenade and one tear gas grenade each, which can be launched like missiles to inflict damage on the enemy.”

The middle-aged man in sunglasses shook his head, “That barely counts as a usable weapon, it’s just unfortunate that you haven’t finished listing all the features, which still constitutes deception.

By violating the rules of this world, you cannot apply it to combat.”

“You didn’t finish telling me all the rules just now, did you?”

“I did tell you afterward, didn’t I?”

Gongsun Ce stared at him intently, squeezing a few words out of his mouth, “This gauntlet can be loaded with small metal projectiles to be shot out.”

Where would he find such small metal projectiles?

Naturally, it was all the scattered bits and pieces strewn about the dilapidated factory.

“Ha…

hahaha!

Fine, you have my blessing!” Xu Junyi stood with his hands behind his back, laughing loudly, “Kid, you really made the wrong decision.

You set up complex terrain, placed useless details, and went to great lengths to divert my attention, but little did you know that the rules of my manifestation are specifically designed to counter your clever tricks.

Such a waste of effort, you might as well have picked up a gun and held it in your hand!”

The Superpower User sneered, “Sorry, I’ve never fired a gun before.

If I took one, it would probably become an advantage for you.”

“You can rest assured, you won’t really die.

You’ll just become a member of the new world like me, and then you’ll regret what you’re doing now…

Wait, there are ten seconds left, the duel is about to begin.”

The space, empty of all but air, had rapidly transformed; in the blink of an eye, the two of them were in the middle of the dilapidated factory.

The giant dragon cult leader took off his sunglasses and readied himself for battle.

“Desolate Form Mage, Xu Junyi.”

The gray-haired youth looked at him expressionlessly and raised the glove on his right hand.

“Superpower User, Gongsun Ce.

3…2…1!

The final countdown ended, and the invisible force that bound the two men disappeared at the same time.

Gongsun Ce immediately activated the mechanism in his glove, shooting a smoke bomb from it, filling the dilapidated factory with white smoke in an instant!

“Little trick.”

Xu Junyi stepped on the ground with one foot, and dashed towards the corner to his right front.

During the preparation time just now, he had seen clearly that it was the only place piled with parts, closer to the youth but farther from him.

He had already anticipated the opening move; the Superpower User would definitely disrupt the line of sight and head to this place to replenish his ammunition for an attack!

Unfortunately, the youth misjudged the physical disparity between them; his movements were far faster than the opponent could have imagined!

The man with sunglasses rushed at a speed unattainable by ordinary people.

He kicked the pile of parts on the ground, then turned and punched out!

“Oh?”

His fist tore through the fog, but did not hit the youth who should have been there.

Had he misjudged?

Xu Junyi threw several punches in quick succession, the force of his fists dispersing the thin smoke, allowing him to finally catch sight of his enemy’s figure.

Gongsun Ce had disappeared by the door of the dilapidated factory, actually abandoning the advantageous terrain and fleeing outside the factory!

The giant dragon cultist cautiously protected his body, prepared for the youth’s sneaky attacks while stepping forward.

“Kid, you’re just wasting your strength…

This area is as big as you’ve set it, you won’t be able to run beyond these boundaries.”

While verbally undermining the enemy’s morale, he pondered the youth’s thought process.

This enemy did not seem to be a reckless brute…

Even if his mentality was unstable before the battle started, he should not have lost his composure from the beginning.

He walked out of the factory cautiously, quickly surveying the surroundings.

“…!”

Xu Junyi’s pupils dilated.

He had just witnessed the gray-haired youth take action; the Superpower User smashed his fist through a pane of glass.

The glass window on the left side of a vehicle.

The earthy-yellow metal behemoth outside the dilapidated factory, a common sight on construction sites, the window glass of a dump truck…!

The gray-haired youth’s expression was calm, decisive in action, not a trace of anxiety or nervousness on his face.

He agilely jumped into the vehicle, no hesitation in starting the engine.

Dozens of tons of metal roared to life, charging towards the man in the trench coat!

“You!!!!”

“Come on, a fair and square one-on-one!” Gongsun Ce yelled over the rumbling noise, “All kinds of martial arts, this is a dump truck!”
