Have you ever had the experience of your little finger poking into your nostril while washing your face, causing it to bleed?

The champion Cyclops, wailing miserably, was clutching its single eye with both hands, rolling on the ground in an earth-shattering manner.

Such violent movements only accelerated the further expulsion of fluid from between its fingers.

This was a mixture of blood and aqueous humor flowing from the Cyclops's eyeball, ruptured by the metal claws.

While the single eye provided the Cyclops with powerful long-range vision, it also added a huge weakness that it didn't originally possess.

That weakness was the single eye itself.

High strength does indeed bring stronger physical fitness, but it doesn't mean that every part of the body is strengthened equally.

For example, the eyeballs, eardrums, and testicles; unless you're at Superman's level of physical prowess, these areas remain vulnerable.

The Cyclops was merely slow to feel pain, like large creatures such as giraffes and elephants, where the transmission of pain from the extremities is greatly delayed. However, the eyeball is one of the organs closest to the brain. Unless it had complete analgesia, even the Cyclops couldn't endure the immense pain of having its eyeball gouged out.

The only ones who could casually hot-swap eyeballs while ignoring the pain were probably the Uchiha clan...

Compared to ordinary two-eyed giants, the single-eyed Cyclops had a significantly greater distribution of sensitive nerves in its eyeball. Not only did it have to endure more pain, but any attack that directly hit its bare eyeball would trigger a "weakness critical" effect without any damage reduction.

This time, the Demon Cicada's metal claws went even further, delivering a triple critical hit that instantly scratched out the aqueous humor!

If someone could get a dragon-slaying arrow siege crossbow or something, one shot might be enough to kill this Cyclops.

Of course, such a precious opportunity to exploit a critical weakness only comes once, because the Cyclops's left hand had already firmly pressed against its injured single eye, and the intense pain had quickly transformed into unbridled rage and murderous intent.

Its tiny brain naturally couldn't connect "eye injury" with "human scent," but that didn't stop it from venting its anger by killing all living things.

It roared incoherently, spraying saliva everywhere, and staggered towards Cheng Tian's direction, following the obvious human scent... However, Cheng Tian, who remained in place, watched as the Cyclops began to veer to the left as it walked.

Even the Cyclops couldn't escape the physical limitations of humanoid creatures. After losing its sight, whether temporarily or permanently, the Cyclops, which already lacked fine control over its body, could barely walk in a straight line.

If it weren't for the human scent guiding it, it might never have been able to touch Cheng Tian in this lifetime.

...Unfortunately, Cheng Tian had also noticed this.

He saw that the Cyclops, which had clearly deviated from its path, had briefly paused before turning its face, still covering its eye, back towards him. He knew that it was probably using some method to determine his location.

And Cheng Tian's countermeasure was—

"Avada Kedavra!!!"

With an easy hand switch, Cheng Tian pointed the Gentleman's Staff at the Cyclops, which was almost within reach, feeling like it only needed to take two or three more steps and raise its hand to touch him.

During the one second of guidance and the subsequent launch of the hexagram missile, Cheng Tian quickly issued a second command.

"Demon Cicada! Suspend standby! Await my command!"

While giving the command, Cheng Tian himself also charged forward, chasing after the hexagram missile instead of retreating.

The Polymorph missile hit the Cyclops, which couldn't see anything at all.

With a bang, a duck that was clearly larger than an ordinary duck, flapping its wings wildly, emitting a terrible stench, and with a distinctive bleeding single eye and a single horn on its head, appeared.

Here, the already damaged eye of the Cyclops duck fully demonstrated the bidirectional morphological influence of Polymorph.

As a champion template unit, the duration of Polymorph was further compressed, to less than two seconds.

Counting the missile hit and Cheng Tian's forward rush, it was estimated that before he even touched this stinky single-eyed duck, the Polymorph would have already worn off.

But that was exactly what Cheng Tian wanted!

Cheng Tian leaped towards the Cyclops duck, which was now close enough, looking like he wanted to flatten it with a thousand-pound drop. Just at that moment, the Polymorph wore off, and the duck rapidly expanded back to the Cyclops's original size. Cheng Tian, who should have been falling, directly stepped on the Cyclops's head, and his entire body was pushed up.

Before the Cyclops could react to what had happened to it in those few seconds, a pain almost comparable to the eye injury instantly assailed its pine cone-sized brain!

Seemingly completely ignoring the Cyclops's foul body odor, Cheng Tian endured, grabbing the Cyclops's single horn with his left hand to hold himself up, hanging his entire body on the Cyclops's face. Then, with his right hand, he thrust the straight sword he was holding sharply upwards—

The sword blade went straight into the Cyclops's nostril!

Cheng Tian, that bastard, even stirred it around a couple of times!

Just now, it was a gushing torrent of blood mixed with aqueous humor from the eyeball, and now it was a flowing stream of blood mixed with thick snot!

The level of disgust was even higher!

It is said that wounded beasts are the most dangerous, and this can also be seen in the Cyclops.

The Cyclops, in its剧痛excruciating pain and狂暴rage, instantly erupted with unimaginable agility and speed. Its fan-like left hand猛地grasped Cheng Tian's waist, effortlessly lifting him into the air like a claw machine, and then, using almost all of its strength, slammed Cheng Tian hard into the ground!

Simply eating him alive was clearly not enough to vent the Cyclops's anger. It wanted to smash this human into minced meat, and then take a big dump on the minced meat!

However, the Cyclops didn't notice that when it raised the human in its hand above its head, the feel of the grip had undergone an "imperceptible" change.

"Die!"

Along with the Cyclops's roar, a human-shaped pit appeared directly on the ground.

Throwing techniques are probably the most dangerous of human close combat skills. If the fighting arena is a hard ground, the mortality rate will increase by several percent.

The Cyclops, with its height of over 6 meters and a strength attribute of 29 points, was completely capable of killing Cheng Tian with a furious blow. Even if he didn't die, his internal organs would probably explode and his bones would shatter, turning him into a completely paralyzed person—

However, at the same time as the dust flew up, a large number of metal fragments and... a completely intact Cheng Tian himself also flew out!

And he didn't look like a smashed rag doll at all!

It turned out that at the moment when he was about to be grabbed and slammed down by the Cyclops, Cheng Tian used the small mechanic of the blank equipment slot, which allowed him to equip the Knight Armor directly without a cooldown.

And the Knight Armor didn't fail its mission. When Cheng Tian was "thrown and slammed," it absorbed the full amount of damage and extra kinetic energy from the throw at the cost of its own complete shattering, and immediately triggered the ejection effect and Phase Shift effect, throwing Cheng Tian backwards by about three meters.

The Cyclops, its nasal cavity filled with snot and blood, its fragile nasal septum broken through by Cheng Tian's violent stirring, its sense of smell completely failing, and under the surge of emotion, even more aqueous humor and blood gushed out from under its eyelids again.

Cheng Tian, at the cost of the Knight Armor shattering, was almost completely unharmed!

A manic expression once again floated on Cheng Tian's face as he did a kip-up to stand up.
