Once she dies, these feathers will have no target and will naturally stop attacking. Kurumi is truly a genius for coming up with this idea... Bullshit!
Qi Ling felt incredibly confused. What was going on? How could someone kill themselves just to solve a problem? It was utterly incomprehensible!
But the truth is, based on what Qi Ling sees now, after being pierced by thousands of feathers, Kurumi has lost all signs of life and there is no indication of her survival at all. If this is also a disguise, then Qi Ling has to admire her.
Looking at Kurumi's corpse on the ground, Feiyu was clearly at a loss, because she didn't think that such a move could defeat Kurumi. But the fact was, she had indeed killed Kurumi.
For a moment, the scene seemed somewhat eerie. Feiyu clearly remembered that Shi Meng had just said that killing was forbidden in the competition, but now that Kurumi was dead, what should they do?
Everyone turned to look at Shi Meng, who tilted Shi Meng head and said, "Why are you all looking at me? Let the competition continue."
"Continue what? The person is already dead, how can the match continue?!" Chu Ling asked from the side. With his sharp eyes, he could see that Kurumi, lying on the ground, showed no signs of being alive.
But to everyone's surprise, Shi Meng glanced at Chu Ling disdainfully and said, "Hmph, brat, am I the referee or are you? Let the game continue!"
Although Chu Ling was furious, he didn't dare to contradict Shi Meng. After all, she was arguably the most capricious person in the Devil Realm, and she didn't give face to anyone.
Since Shi Meng said the match would continue, the others, though utterly confused, had no choice. Feiyu, on the field, could only continue, but he was also wondering how he should continue the match—attack a corpse?
But then, something shocking happened: a dark portal suddenly appeared beside the fallen Kurumi, and Kurumi herself walked out of it.
Everyone was speechless with shock at the scene before them. They couldn't understand how Kurumi, who had supposedly died, could reappear. And who was the one who had died?
"Oh my, why does everyone look so shocked? What happened?" Kurumi said with a smile. "Why don't you tell me, so I can learn something too?"
The person who couldn't stand it the most was naturally Tou, Feiyu was competing with Kurumi. She said in disbelief, "How is this possible? You were clearly dead, but if you're here, then... who's that over there?!"
"Hmm? That's a really strange question. Of course, it's me over there." Kurumi said, walking over and lifting up the " Kurumi " on the ground with one hand, laughing, "What's so strange about that?"
This is a huge problem! Everyone couldn't help but think that, but no one could figure out why there were two Kurumi here.
"Hehe, alright, enough joking around. Let's continue the match," Kurumi said. "As for this... we can't waste it, please wait for me a moment."
Then, a circular black shadow suddenly appeared at Kurumi's feet. Kurumi then placed the " Kurumi " in the very center of the shadow and left the shadow herself.
Then, Kurumi, who had already died, slowly sank into the shadows, as if she had been devoured by some kind of wild beast.
Although Qi Ling was mentally prepared for Kurumi's special abilities, he still didn't expect Kurumi power to be so bizarre, which was quite chilling.
"Damn it, don't try to play tricks on me!" In this eerie atmosphere, Feiyu couldn't help but get angry and embarrassed. "Don't think I'm easy to fool! I got here through my own hard work!"
"I don't care if it was you just now or not. Since I couldn't kill you the first time, I'll kill you again!"
Then, Feiyu summoned a sky full of feathers once again and launched an attack on Kurumi in the center of the arena. And this time, unsurprisingly, Feiyu's attack killed Kurumi once again!
But then, something happened that utterly devastated everyone. Kurumi reappeared from the portal, still as elegant and composed as ever, greeting everyone. "Hello everyone! Oh dear, it's been a while! What interesting things happened this time?"
What people fear most is not an invincible, powerful opponent, but rather an opponent like Kurumi, whose methods are completely incomprehensible. If you can't even figure out the opponent's methods, there's absolutely no chance of victory.
Feiyu seemed to sense that if things continued like this, he would not be able to defeat Kurumi at all. On the contrary, his own power was being constantly depleted, and in the end, he might be the one who couldn't hold on any longer.
Since it's impossible to figure out what the opponent did, continuing to attack rashly would be extremely unwise. Feiyu possesses this basic common sense about combat.
Therefore, Feiyu abandoned her offensive stance and switched to a defensive posture, keeping her body in a state of ease of movement at all times so that she could deal with all of Kurumi's attacks.
"Huh? Is it my turn to attack this time?" Kurumi said with a laugh. "Honestly, I want to experience it a little longer."
"Fine, if that's how it is, then let me do the attack." Kurumi said, and somehow pulled out a flintlock pistol.
Then, Kurumi raised her flintlock pistol and pulled the trigger at Feiyu, firing several shots in succession. However, Feiyu, who was focused on defense, blocked each bullet with her own feathers.
"Oh? That's amazing. As expected, your feathers are no ordinary things. Not only are their attack power very strong, but their defense is also top-notch. It's truly unexpected," Kurumi said. "And if we're not mistaken, your feathers should have automatic defense, right?"
"Otherwise, you shouldn't have been able to stop my fifth bullet."
As Kurumi said, although she only fired four shots just now, five bullets were actually fired. This is one of her abilities, or you could say it's a tactic.
If this were the first time facing such an attack, it would be virtually impossible to dodge the fifth bullet. However, Feiyu effortlessly withstood all of Kurumi's attacks. Therefore, Kurumi had reason to suspect that the feathers around Feiyu's body could automatically defend itself, rather than requiring human intervention.
