Chapter 1060: Do Not Give Up
Chapter 1060: Do Not Give Up
After the defense system of the Phantom Suit and the several Beginner and Intermediate protective charms on Lin Rui automatically activated, there was a noticeable change in his expression.
Lin Rui himself had almost given up, but these unconscious items on his body continued to guard him.
Huff, huff~
“Yes! Why should I give up? When have I ever been someone who chooses to surrender?” With the shattering of the first Beginner protective charm, Lin Rui’s attitude underwent a rapid transformation.
Pū!
Then, the second Intermediate protective charm also shattered directly. However, the calm and cold feeling in Lin Rui’s eyes had already been replaced by a burst of dazzling light.
“Even if I have nothing left, I still have my consciousness!” As Kaecilius’s long blade began to break through the final layer of the Phantom Suit’s defense system, Lin Rui’s inner voice shouted at him.
Boom!
At that moment, a radiant light burst forth from Lin Rui’s sea of consciousness, appearing exceptionally dazzling. The light seemed to pass through Lin Rui’s mind and reached his eyes, causing a substantial burst of radiance to surge forth from his eyes.
Humming!
As the Azura light radiated from Lin Rui’s eyes, a powerful Psychic Power surged forth from them, forming a Psychic Power shockwave. This shockwave raced toward Kaecilius at a speed faster than his attack.
After being completely suppressed in physical combat and with all other methods ineffective against Kaecilius’s dark dimension power, Lin Rui resorted to his last resort: the Psychic Power shockwave!
After such a powerful eruption of Psychic Power in Lin Rui’s mind, it seemed as if time had slowed down for Kaecilius and the long blade in his hand. In Lin Rui’s consciousness, the speed of his Psychic Power shockwave was ten, while Kaecilius and his blade moved at a speed of one.
However, Lin Rui’s own speed did not increase due to the eruption of his consciousness; he could only sense the speed of the Psychic Power shockwave.
Soon, Lin Rui’s Psychic Power collided with the dark aura in front of Kaecilius. This aura had the power to instantly dissipate Lin Rui’s internal energy, effortlessly shatter the Beheading Spirit Sword, and easily penetrate all of Lin Rui’s defensive measures. Now, it finally faced off against Lin Rui’s Psychic Power shockwave.
Sizzling!
In Lin Rui’s conscious perception, his Psychic Power was eroded to some extent the moment it collided with the dark aura, causing intense pain in his sea of consciousness. But Lin Rui managed to endure it.
However, the dark aura didn’t completely annihilate Lin Rui’s Psychic Power as it did with his other offensive and defensive techniques. Instead, it consumed itself while eroding Lin Rui’s Psychic Power.
“I’ll give it my all!” Enduring the unbearable pain transmitted through his sea of consciousness, Lin Rui roared with determination and unleashed all of his Psychic Power at once.
The fiercer the impact of Lin Rui’s Psychic Power shockwave, the faster the dark aura in front of Kaecilius eroded. In the end, Lin Rui expended a tremendous amount of Psychic Power and managed to pierce through the dark aura before Kaecilius.
Bang!
In the next moment, the Psychic Power that penetrated the dark aura directly struck Kaecilius’s chest. This time, Lin Rui finally fought his way out of the dire situation, finding a glimmer of hope!
“Swish!”
A muffled sound echoed between Lin Rui and Kaecilius, and suddenly, Kaecilius, who had already swung his blade towards Lin Rui’s head, seemed to be hit by a blast of air, causing his chest to cave in.
He was thrown backward at a rapid speed. Similarly, Lin Rui, with a pale face, descended towards the ground, his condition no better than Kaecilius, who was sent flying.
“Thud!”
Two seconds later, Lin Rui and the airborne Kaecilius almost simultaneously crashed onto the ground. To an onlooker, it appeared that Kaecilius had shattered several layers of Lin Rui’s defense and then struck him on the head with his blade.
However, the moment when Kaecilius’ blade struck Lin Rui’s head, he was suddenly thrown back as if hit by a powerful force. The severity of the indentation on his chest indicated that he was seriously injured.
“Cough… Pū!” Lin Rui, who had fallen to the ground, coughed painfully twice before spitting out a mouthful of blood. The eruption of Psychic Power had worsened his injuries.
At this moment, Lin Rui’s face was almost entirely stained with blood, most of which was caused by the blow from Kaecilius’ blade to his head, aside from the blood flowing from the cut on his cheek caused by the magical flying blade earlier.
Although Lin Rui’s Psychic Power impact had forced Kaecilius back, the latter’s sword had grazed his head.
“Nevertheless, I succeeded…” Lying on the ground, gazing weakly at the inverted world above, Lin Rui felt a sense of relief.
Then, lying on the ground with no strength left, Lin Rui’s right index finger moved slightly. In the instant his Psychic Power penetrated the dark aura, Lin Rui had already made an effort to throw the small metal cylinder in his hand toward Kaecilius.
Whether it was due to Lin Rui’s improved luck or not, the metal cylinder unexpectedly flew into Kaecilius’ clothes.
“Beep, beep~”
“Thud!”
Just after Lin Rui’s right index finger moved, two urgent electronic beeps suddenly sounded from within Kaecilius’ clothes, followed by a violent explosion centered on Kaecilius, who was struggling to stand up several tens of meters away from Lin Rui.
As it turned out, when Lin Rui was preparing to give up earlier, he had already exchanged for a miniature Shock Girl bomb from the System Shop, intending to leave something behind for Kaecilius after being killed. However, after Lin Rui repelled Kaecilius, he accidentally threw the bomb into Kaecilius’ clothes, and it happened to be detonated at that moment.
“Cough… Now… you won’t die, but you’ll be crippled!” Coughing intensely, Lin Rui felt the shockwave from the explosion coming towards him and muttered to himself.
Although sorcerers were powerful, their bodies were no different from ordinary Earthlings. If being hit by a bomb at close range like this didn’t cause any harm, then Kaecilius might as well quit being a sorcerer and challenge Hulk to an arm wrestling match.
Phew~
Helpless and lying on the ground, Lin Rui could only assess the situation by sensing the residual impact of the explosion blowing against his face. However, he could no longer sense Kaecilius’ presence.
“Could it be that I’ve dealt with him just like that?”
