What They Mean by "The Setting Trumps Everything"!
Feeling the power surging from her limbs, Feng Xue stood atop the skyscraper, looking down at the enormous creature tens of meters tall in the distance. The composition of the scene was so impactful that, in just a few seconds, Tag such as [Kamen Rider] and [Hero] began to appear on Feng Xue's body.
"If these people survive and spread their experiences today, they might even create a new Trait for me." Feng Xue's lips curled up slightly as she watched the approaching shadowy figure, her body radiating an almost tangible killing intent.
Although he is always referred to as a giant, in fact, it is difficult to describe Sea Monk's size in words.
Its body rose and fell with the waves, looking like a phantom in the sea, with only two lantern-like eyes rising and falling in the spray.
Anyone who sees it knows there is a giant standing there, but no one can describe what the giant hidden in the waves looks like.
But this meant nothing to Feng Xue. As his willpower increased, the Killing intent on his body began to shrink. However, the black and white orca jelly bottle placed in the S-Clash Driver had turned into a blood-red color.
Pressing down the lever again, the scarlet liquid surged into the S-Clash Driver, and the black, white, and blue armor was also coated with a layer of red light.
"KILLER WEIGHT"
A sound effect, seemingly carrying a hint of ferocity, spread out. Feng Xue exerted force with her feet, and her whole body leaped out with the momentum of a high-speed train.
The crimson energy transformed into the phantom of an orca, enveloping Feng Xue, who was assuming a standard Knight Kick stance, as if carrying him freely across the sea of the sky.
The distance of several hundred meters was covered in an instant, while columns of water rose from the sea that had already submerged the low-lying city.
Wow!
Wow!
Wow!
Feng Xue kicked away the water columns one by one, and the red orca got closer and closer to the huge figure in the waves, but the red orca phantom on its body became increasingly faint.
Thirty meters...
Twenty meters...
Ten meters...
For the Sea Monk, whose shadow was over fifty meters long, it was practically within reach. The giant shadow was wielding a long staff shaped like coral. The area that had been submerged by seawater became dry and empty in an instant. If it weren't for the helpless writhing seafood, one might even have the impression that it was all just an illusion.
However, the water obviously did not disappear into thin air. It condensed and rose at the giant shadow of the Sea Monk, transforming into a giant wave over a hundred meters high. It crashed down with terrifying force, and the giant shadow, which was already fifty or sixty meters high, also surpassed the hundred-meter mark as the wave rose!
The entire process took only a second. Just as Feng Xue was about to reach the giant shadow, all that remained in front of him was the terrifying waves. His target was still hidden in the waves, with only two huge eyeballs still standing out.
Just as the waves were about to crash down, the orca phantom on Feng Xue's body suddenly exploded. He assumed a fist-throwing stance in the air, his figure like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, or an ant trying to shake a tree.
Although she still looks like Kamen Rider, Feng Xue has actually equipped herself with the Visage of Oath, and her two huge eyes have long since satisfied the need for eye contact.
He could easily Teleportation to the other side of the waves.
But he did not choose that path.
The towering, imaginary giant solidified behind Feng Xue, Heart of Clear Water unfolded within it.
Movement and stillness reached a unity in that instant, Feng Xue once again entered One Thought Connects to God.
All-out
All skills
Wholeheartedly
Wholehearted
All Spirit
All
Everything burned away at this moment, transforming into a single thought that flowed into this simple punch, becoming Feng Xue's strike to measure herself and propel her forward.
The massive wave, crashing down like a high wall, seemed to freeze the moment it made contact with the armored fist.
Then, the world began to turn again, and the giant waves continued to crash down, but the patch of seawater in front of Feng Xue had already evaporated.
A trench, as if erased by an eraser, stretched out after the giant waves, carving a crack in the Sea of Pradamia that would never heal.
The giant shadow standing in the sea seemed to be wiped out with that punch.
"That strong?" Feng Xue stared blankly at her fist. Although she had the experience of splitting a river with a single sword, no matter how turbulent the Yangtze River was, it could not compare to the kinetic energy carried by the giant waves hundreds of meters high. Not to mention that the sword strike back then was mostly the result of cheating by the Tidal Force attached to the Orca Pillow.
But now this punch...
The waves that bypassed Feng Xue crashed onto the ground, causing another terrifying earthquake. Feng Xue, however, fell slowly like a willow catkin, and the scattered water droplets were turned into wisps of steam by the High Temperature generated by the high-intensity movement of the killer whale's armor.
All sorts of Tag, along with a large amount of [knowledge], flooded into his body, becoming food for the Supernatural Tale Fire, while Feng Xue, standing on the sea, only felt a chill.
The power of [Arrow Protection] unfolded instantly, and Feng Xue's mind immediately conjured up images of water arrows piercing through his body.
"Clang--!"
Without any hesitation, Feng Xue stepped aside to avoid the water arrow's trajectory, which was sensed by the guardian, and at the same time flicked her finger to ring the Bell of Absolution.
The sound of the bell spread out like a great bell, and countless imprints instantly appeared before Feng Xue's eyes.
What a terrifying density that is!
The text was so lengthy that it almost completely filled Feng Xue's field of vision.
Even without trypophobia, Feng Xue was overwhelmed by a strong sense of discomfort. As he dodged the water arrows, the sea beneath his feet suddenly transformed into a terrifying whirlpool!
Only then did Feng Xue finally see the Supernatural Tale Fire.
It wasn't that it was hidden, but rather that it was too tiny, because at this very moment, every drop of water around him contained a tiny flame.
And that flame is the very source of the Absolution Mark!
"A water-elemental monster?" A sudden realization dawned on Feng Xue's mind. He didn't know if this was a characteristic inherent to Sea Monk or a reinforcement it made to avoid its own weaknesses.
But faced with such a dense array of opponents, Feng Xue suddenly stopped dodging and let the water arrows hit her armor.
Amidst the clanging and clattering sounds, Feng Xue activated her Body Protection True Qi and simultaneously pulled out a camera.
No, that's not a camera!
It's a gun!
The legendary spearman, Abe no Hirakiri Ya!
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The two toggle switches were pulled in turn, and with two gunshots, a large number of steel pellets sprayed out of the muzzle.
A dense hail of shrapnel rained down on the water, accompanied by a strange and mournful roar that echoed across the sea.
Snap snap snap snap snap snap...
The sounds of bubbles bursting echoed one after another, and one after another, the scarlet brands of forgiveness faded. Staring blankly at the completely "dead" ocean, they didn't know what to do for a moment.
"Good heavens, this thing doesn't have instant death resistance? Wait, I don't think I have it either?!"
Regarding Wuchang...
This isn't actually Wuchang Weird Tale Bai Wuchang (the White Impermanence), but rather Weird Tale about "a mentally ill person dressing up as Wuchang and scaring people in a hospital." You can find more details in the hospital stories by the author of "The Grappling Techniques I Just Learned." In short, it's a more realistic Weird Tale, so it won't activate the Progenitor Supernatural Tale of Wuchang or even the underworld.
In reality, Weird Tale don't necessarily have to be supernatural. A mischievous child randomly knocking on the door every night in the middle of the night can also be an Urban Legend. Like AIDS Mary, there is no supernatural intervention. These kinds of Weird Tale usually have very low direct combat capabilities, but they possess some strange abilities, such as "making people easily believe that they are the Wuchang" or something like that... So in a sense, the readers are also under his influence!
P. S.: The protagonist's JoJo pose (or transformation pose) is with his right hand resting on the lever of the S-Clash Driver (similar to one hand on his hip), his left index finger pointing to the ground, and his waist and head slightly twisted to the side.
