Gu Ding VS Emily - Bonus Chapter 4

The Titan Star had now risen directly overhead, and under the sunlight, Gu Ding's black Mecha reflected a faint white glow.

The black Mecha bent its knees slightly, then suddenly exerted force and shot forward, its target Emily's location.

Emily stood still, even in her Mecha, Gu Ding's speed and strength were negligible in her eyes. Therefore, she had no intention of dodging; instead, she planned to use her full strength to end the battle as quickly as possible, to avoid any unforeseen complications.

Gu Ding's Mecha instantly appeared in front of her; in her eyes, Gu Ding's movements were too slow. She lowered her body slightly and brandished her dagger, aiming it at the chest cavity of the black Mecha. Based on her understanding of Mecha, this was the energy bar for most Mecha. Once the energy bar was destroyed, Gu Ding's Mecha was basically useless, and to reuse it, some circuit boards near the energy bar would need to be replaced.

A terrifyingly penetrating Spiral Qi Strength shot out from the dagger, but just as it was about to make contact with the Mecha, Gu Ding dodged it with a strange twisting motion.

Emily was visibly stunned by what she saw. Gu Ding's movements weren't as fast as hers, yet his strange, contorted motion somehow perfectly dodged her attack. With the penetrating power of the Spiral Qi Strength, it could even pierce a spaceship like the Grey Eagle, let alone a small Mecha. She could have won the battle with a single blow, but unfortunately, she missed.

Gu Ding was also startled, realizing that Emily's strength was far greater than Gu Ding had anticipated; her attack speed far exceeded Gu Ding visual range. However, his long-term training in Limitless Body Technique allowed his body to react instinctively to the danger, allowing him to dodge the fatal blow.

"The gap between you and her is not only reflected in strength, but also in genetic stability, cell strength, cell regeneration, movement speed, nerve reaction speed, Source Power, combat experience, and many other aspects." The Sea Emperor did not think highly of Gu Ding. Based on the existing data, no matter how he calculated it, Gu Ding's chances of winning were zero.

Gu Ding didn't refute Sea Emperor's opinion; he simply charged towards Emily again. Emily stepped aside and appeared beside Gu Ding, her dagger flashing out once more, Spiral Qi Strength shooting towards the right side of the black Mecha's waist.

Just as the attack was about to hit, the black Mecha's waist twisted strangely again, narrowly avoiding the blow.

Seeing this happen a second time, Emily roughly knew what was going on. She also felt a little envious of Gu Ding, who possessed such a powerful fighting instinct, and this fighting instinct was based on a very special physical technique, which was somewhat similar to "Limitless Body Technique," but was clearly completely different.

Having twice relied on his body's instincts to evade the opponent's attacks, Gu Ding was not happy. In his view, it was luck; he simply couldn't catch Emily's movements.

Previously, he was able to attack Emily because of Bade's mental chains and Bent's tenfold gravity. But now, it's a one-on-one fight. Those negative effects on Emily are no longer present.

"The Seventh Layer of Limitless Body Technique is still not enough..." Gu Ding, who was in a passive state, knew that continuing like this would only be a waste of time.

"Activating the Eighth Level will allow you to barely keep up with her speed, but it won't be very significant. The damage you can inflict on her will be limited. Moreover, the Eighth Level will put a heavy burden on your body, and you can only activate it for a maximum of half an hour." The Sea Emperor did not try to stop him. He knew that Gu Ding would not give up until he had tried everything.

"But without activating the Eighth Level, I have absolutely no chance." Gu Ding was well aware of the current situation.

The discussion with the Sea Emperor didn't take long before Gu Ding activated the Eighth Level of the Limitless Body Technique, which increased his Combat Strength twentyfold, doubling the power of the Seventh Layer the Limitless Body Technique.

Once the Eighth Level Limitless Body Technique was used, Emily immediately noticed that Gu Ding's speed had increased significantly, nearly doubling in speed, and even Gu Ding footwork had become more unpredictable.

The black Mecha's speed increased instantly, appearing in front of Emily like a ghost. Emily reacted quickly, slashing to the left with her dagger, the Spiral Qi Strength of the blade aimed directly at the Mecha's right arm joint, clearly intending to dislocate the Mecha's arm.

This time, Gu Ding saw the other's movements clearly and reacted immediately. He took a step back with his right foot, moved to the right, and then clenched his left fist and punched Emily in the head.

Emily's close-combat skills are not weak, but compared to the freak Gu Ding knows Limitless Body Technique, she is somewhat clumsy.

Gu Ding's counterattack was clearly unexpected. She hurriedly raised her arm to block the black Mecha's huge fist. The 300,000 points achieved in the first attack and the 600,000 points achieved this time were instantly superimposed, resulting in an attack comparable to a warrior with a 900,000-point Cell Comprehensive Index.

This level of attack is almost the limit that Ninth-Order Gene Body can reach.

Even Emily was forced back several steps by this tremendous force. Although it did not cause any harm, it brought Emily immense horror.

Gu Ding's Mecha is supposedly only equipped with 10,000 base attack points, but it's now unleashing an attack close to that of Tenth-Order Gene Body. This means that Gu Ding's special abilities and combat skills have amplified his combat power by nearly a hundredfold. This is simply unbelievable.

What does a 100-fold increase mean? It means that even Gu Ding, after reaching the Eighth Order Gene Body, can fight across two major levels. Before reaching the Eighth Order Gene Body, being able to fight across two major levels isn't too unusual, because Combat Strength only increases tenfold for every two levels. But after reaching the eighth tier, Combat Strength increases tenfold for every level.

Emily couldn't help but become curious about Gu Ding; she wanted to know what kind of special abilities Gu Ding possessed.

Seeing Emily forced back several steps by Gu Ding's attack, the Interstellar Pirate realized just how powerful Gu Ding truly was. Although Gu Ding was currently wearing Mecha, his basic combat strength was significantly greater than his original form. However, Emily was Tenth-Order Gene Body, and the fact that she could repel Tenth-Order Gene Body meant that her Combat Strength after donning the Mecha was not far from that of Tenth-Order Gene Body.

Having landed a successful blow, Gu Ding continued his pursuit. Close combat was his forte. Although Emily was stronger than him, and each of her attacks carried a terrifying force capable of destroying the Mecha, he believed that as long as he handled the situation carefully, he shouldn't lose the fight in the short term.

Emily found herself in a strange predicament: despite being stronger than her opponent, she was unable to win the battle.

Seeing Gu Ding close in again, she swung her dagger with her right hand while simultaneously gathering Source Power in her left, pressing it towards the black Mecha's chest. Meanwhile, the Spiral Qi Strength bursting from the dagger shot towards the black Mecha's head.

Gu Ding simply tilted his head to avoid the Spiral Qi Strength. As for Emily's attack with her left hand, Gu Ding showed no fear and threw a punch at it, meeting force with force.

When the fist and palm collided, Gu Ding felt a tremendous force coming from the mechanical arm. He quickly retreated, dissipating the force under his feet, leaving two long and deep scratches on the ground.

Emily wasn't feeling any better either. She had only stepped back half a step with her right foot to dissipate the force of Gu Ding's attack, but her arm still felt sore and numb. She had clearly felt that Gu Ding's attack had increased in strength. It was no longer something Ninth-Order Gene Body could achieve; that force was roughly equivalent to Tenth-Order Gene Body with Cell Comprehensive Index of 1.8 million points, not far from her own. This shocked her. Gu Ding's attack had actually increased again? If she hadn't had her Source Power protecting her hand, Gu Ding's strike would probably have injured her.

Gu Ding's direct confrontation made him realize the terrifying power of Source Power. He felt as if he had struck solid metal, even experiencing a strong shockwave. Only now could he understand why Sharp and the others were able to directly use Source Power to clash with Bigge's longsword.

However, Gu Ding also noticed that Emily took a half-step back, which meant that his attack was not actually ineffective against Emily. Even though Emily had just used her Source Power, she still took a half-step back, indicating that his attack could still potentially cause her harm.

Having realized this, Gu Ding began to get a little excited, and he pounced on Emily again.

Emily was also getting a headache from Gu Ding's relentless fighting; he always managed to dodge her attacks. And each of his attacks was more ferocious than the last. Moreover, she noticed that Gu Ding seemed tireless and fearless. Having dealt with many people, she knew very well that this kind of person was terrifying. Seeing Gu Ding pounce again, she frowned slightly.

The black Mecha's fist quickly collided with Emily's palm again. Emily felt that the opponent's force was significantly reduced this time. Under the impact of her own force, the Gu Ding black Mecha was sent flying backward.

In fact, after the damage is stacked three times, the stacked effect will also be zero, so the effect of Gu Ding's attack this time will only be 600,000 points.

Just as he regained his footing, Gu Ding lunged forward again, his black fist colliding with Liliath's palm once more, sending Gu Ding staggering back several steps.

This time, Emily clearly felt that Gu Ding's strength had increased again. She vaguely sensed that Gu Ding's ability was something like damage stacking or damage doubling. However, this ability should have a limit to the number of uses. After reaching the limit, the effect would reset to zero and the calculation would have to be restarted. Therefore, the damage of Gu Ding's attack would be reduced again.

Before Gu Ding could pounce on Emily for the third time, Gu Ding saw a figure rushing toward him in the distance.

The figure, not particularly tall, was Sharp. And on his shoulder was the enormous Bigge... (To be continued).
