Power Overwhelming, a Contest of Trump Cards
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The sounds continued incessantly; the earth trembled and trees snapped almost without pause.
Lin Yu's attacks were getting faster and faster—although the Rakshasa looked like a power-type character, and even had a red skin, they were not actually just a clumsy type that relied solely on brute force!
Strength may be a Rakshasa's strength, but speed and agility are definitely not its weaknesses.
Lin Yu had also witnessed this in the [Heavenly Feast Above] Instance.
Although the Rakshasa named Biten did not engage in direct combat, Lin Yu observed him fighting against a large amount of delicious food.
Although his movements are expansive and powerful, Biten does not feel clumsy or slow at all.
Lin Yu felt the same way after obtaining the power of the Rakshasa.
The initial "slowness" was partly because Lin Yu, the "pilot," was not yet used to the enormous "machine" and was temporarily unable to control it freely.
On the other hand, Lin Yu also harbored some intentions to mislead Nian.
Since I didn't fully grasp it at the beginning anyway, I might as well create the illusion that I'm "clumsy".
And now...
As Lin Yu's attacks became faster and faster, he could feel that Nian was finding it increasingly difficult to cope.
A strong piece of evidence is that, in order to perfectly evade each of its own attacks, Twenty's "input" and "implementation process" are becoming increasingly complex.
At first, all Nian needed to do was throw a bomb at a nearby tree and wait for the tree to be blown to a specific location.
But now, Nian had to use Nightmare Substance to create a buffer zone under his feet, then use the goat's head to create a chain explosion, and then use the thrown darts to deflect two stones so that they would bounce off the explosion and hit Lin Yu's knife.
Although Lin Yu's movements were quickened due to Nian's formidable strength, he still had enough time to complete all these actions between each attack...
This further convinced Lin Yu that although Nian's [Method of Comprehending Vision and Deduction] was very strong, it also had its limits.
It can only integrate existing conditions to create a seemingly incredible, coincidental "optimal solution" to a certain extent, but it has no way to break the situation that was originally impossible.
Otherwise, Nian would have already used a series of "Chain Reaction" to kill himself instantly.
The fact that this didn't happen indicates that there's a definite upper limit to this [Exclusive item]!
"After all, it's a 'Detective's' [Exclusive item]. Although it seems a bit outrageous, in principle, it must be based on 'logic'... It's impossible to truly turn the impossible into the possible."
Of course, this [Item] itself is terrifying enough.
Lin Yu was very fortunate. If he hadn't chosen to play the role of Rakshasa, he probably wouldn't have been able to put Nian in this situation.
Even if you were playing as another powerful "Tier 3" Player, it wouldn't be this easy.
After all, Player's strength mainly depends on [Item], and even if Lin Yu has [Counterfeit], he can only replicate one of them.
And the power of the Rakshasa...
It's the simplest and most direct way—physical strength!
Immense power! Absolute violence!
The explosion rang in his ears, and the crimson smoke stung his skin, causing excruciating pain. Large patches of corrosion infected Lin Yu's flesh...
Such injuries, enough to make any creature cry out in agony and collapse, or even die on the spot, did not stop Lin Yu in the slightest.
It didn't even affect Lin Yu!
Certainly...
If a real Rakshasa were to come, they might not be able to withstand it.
Lin Yu's body wasn't his own, so he didn't feel bad using it!
There's no need to consider long-term effects, injury, or death, although it might be troublesome if this body were to truly lose its mobility...
However, Lin Yu could accept it as long as it was to kill Nian!
Although the motivations are different, based on this point...
Ultimately, Lin Yu's madness, obsession, and fanaticism for battle were just like those of a true native of the Black Marsh World!
No, even those barbarians and Blood Luo were far inferior to Lin Yu's performance at this moment.
Anyone who saw Lin Yu's performance at this moment would have absolutely no doubt that he was the real Rakshasa.
This kind of aura and madness is just like the overlord and strongman who dominated the Black Marsh World a thousand years ago!
However, Lin Yu had no time to worry about these things.
He has completely immersed himself in the role and has truly begun to enjoy the "battle"!
Faster! Stronger!
The giant axe swung and cleaved like Storm, while the fists landed at tricky angles, suddenly exploding like rolling thunder!
Admittedly, Lin Yu was merely trying to create an opportunity to disrupt the [Method of Comprehending Vision and Deduction]'s deductions, and even out of tactical considerations of respecting his opponent, Lin Yu conservatively estimated that he could at most force out the maximum potential of this [Exclusive item]...
But if he could really kill Nian directly, Lin Yu would absolutely, positively not miss this opportunity!
Bang!
The axe cleaved through the Nightmare Substance, and the black, malleable substance around Twenty, whose body was wrapped in golden threads, was finally gone.
The ram's eyes gleamed with a blood-red light, emitting a Demons whisper like "Mishan," and it blocked Lin Yu's massive axe from falling once more.
The ram's horn shot out a crimson gas, a hundred times denser than any of the previous explosive clouds, almost viscous, in an attempt to block the giant axe.
"Laugh--"
Lin Yu's forearm and axe plunged into the red mist, instantly feeling a viscous resistance—as if he had struck mud.
At the same time, the surfaces that came into contact with the blood mist, whether flesh or axe, emitted wisps of white smoke. The intense corrosion, dozens of times stronger than before, was something Lin Yu could not ignore, and his arm instantly became a bloody mess.
Before the blood could even drip, it evaporated into wisps of white smoke. Within this crimson hue, it seemed as if countless tiny insects and fish were lurking, tearing and devouring Lin Yu's flesh and blood!
However...
Since the arm and axe were both fake anyway, Lin Yu didn't care at all!
He continued to chop down forcefully, letting out a roar befitting his Rakshasa persona.
"Die! Die! Die!"
"Bang!"
The giant axe finally pierced through the blood mist. The ram's head let out a miserable cry, its bones cracked, and it collapsed to the ground, rolling twice before coming to a stop.
Lin Yu's eyes flashed with a fierce light as he aimed at Nian, who appeared behind the blood mist, and his axe blade went straight for Nian's figure.
And at that critical moment...
But then, the twenty-year-old took flight!
To be precise... it was the golden threads on his body that suddenly turned mottled black, pulling Nian up and lifting him into the air!
The interplay of black and gold was quickly recognized by Lin Yu!
"Tsk, they still have stock! No wonder it's a high-level Nightmare!"
Old Zheng sighed.
That's right, these black things are nightmare matter!
Golden threads appeared on the black, Nightmare Substance.
The two intertwine in perfect harmony.
The Nightmare Substance that this guy had been using, provided by Nightmare, had now merged with his [Exclusive item: The Method of Comprehending Vision and Deduction]!
The black and gold Nightmare enveloped Twenty and spread outwards, its edges edged with gold light before her golden eyes, like a grand coronation robe!
Seeing this, Lin Yu spat and raised his axe, cursing loudly.
"So you had this trick up your sleeve all along."
Although he appeared angry and indignant, Lin Yu was actually relieved.
"Finally... I've been tricked!"
