Feiyu showed no expression at this moment, but his emotions had clearly stabilized, as if he felt that he had finally won a round in this battle.
But then Kurumi put away her flintlock pistol and said with a smile, "Heh, since that's the case, it seems like I have no choice but to find a way to break through your defenses. Fine, I'll show you something different then."
Upon hearing Kurumi's words, Feiyu immediately tensed up, unsure of what kind of bizarre methods Kurumi would employ to make her opponent nervous without even making a move. The rhythm of the match was now completely under Kurumi's control.
Then, Kurumi raised one hand above her head, as if she had pulled something out, and formed a bullet with a special pattern between her thumb and forefinger.
Immediately afterward, Kurumi loaded the bullet into the flintlock pistol, raised the gun, and said to Feiyu, "Be careful, don't die too quickly."
After the bullet was fired, Feiyu immediately spread her feathers and began to defend herself. She had already defended against so many bullets, so even if this bullet was strange, it should be no problem for her. She had full confidence in her automatic defense.
The bullet that Kurumi fired was indeed blocked by Feiyu, but at the very moment her feathers made contact with the bullet, something astonishing happened: those originally incredibly sturdy feathers turned into black ash and scattered all over the ground.
It wasn't just one feather that changed like this; all the feathers that came into contact with the bullet became like this, as if they had been destroyed by the bullet with a special force.
What's incomprehensible is that if these feathers had been broken into pieces or cut open, everyone could understand what had happened. But strangely, these feathers seemed to have rotted away, and were not damaged in a normal way at all.
It was from this bullet that Feiyu sensed an immense danger; if he were hit by it, the match would likely be over.
Under these circumstances, Feiyu disregarded everything else and gathered all her feathers, forming a tornado-like force to try and block the bullet.
Countless feathers decayed and turned to ash upon contact with the bullet, but after passing through all the feathers, Feiyu was no longer in that position, thus successfully dodging the attack.
As for Feiyu's current location, it is in the sky, and at this moment, her arms are no longer human arms, but have become bird wings, which is why she can fly in the air.
No one had any particular opinion about the fact that the other party was not human; in fact, they were quite used to it. After all, none of the members of the Demon Alliance could be considered human, not even Qi Ling.
"Oh dear, what a pity. I thought one bullet would be enough to finish you off," Kurumi said. "It seems I'll need to use more power. I'm a little heartbroken."
With Kurumi about to reload, Feiyu wasn't confident she could withstand Kurumi's attack this time. So, before Kurumi launched her attack, she had to come up with a way to either resolve the situation or counterattack.
At this point, all means were to be used. Just then, a powerful force emanated from Feiyu's body, which then rapidly expanded before exploding into countless feathers.
Immediately afterwards, these feathers moved on their own in the air without wind, combining with each other and quickly transforming into individual Feiyu, forming completely independent entities.
In such a short time, nearly a thousand Feiyu appeared in the sky! And these creatures were all formed from the Feiyu themselves, so it was impossible to tell which ones were real and which ones were fake.
"Hmph! Kurumi, your bullets are indeed very powerful, but if I'm not mistaken, such an attack must have taken a huge toll on you!" Thousands of Feiyu spoke simultaneously in the air.
"If there were 1000 of me here, could you possibly fire 1000 of those bullets and wipe me all out?"
Kurumi looked at the Feiyu that almost filled the sky and couldn't help but smile helplessly, saying, "Just as you guessed, I can't do it."
"However, since special bullets won't work, I'll just use regular bullets to finish you off, won't that do?"
"Hahaha, that's hilarious. Did you really think that just because I've become like this, my power will be dispersed and your attacks will be effective?" Feiyu said smugly from the air.
"Don't dream. My feathers won't become weaker because of this. I can still perfectly defend against all your attacks."
"And you, you'll be facing attacks a thousand times stronger than mine. No matter what methods you use, it will all be in vain!"
The strength that Feiyu displayed was indeed astonishing; creating such a large number of clones was something not everyone could do.
Therefore, Qi Ling guessed that Feiyu must belong to a special race and possess special talents and abilities to be able to do this.
After all, given the current situation, Feiyu alone is already equivalent to an incredibly powerful army. In a war, the strength she could exert would be quite considerable.
Using such power against one person seems a bit excessive, but at this moment, Feiyu felt no sense of victory whatsoever, because there was not a trace of panic on Kurumi's face.
"You're really impressive, Miss Feiyu. You're definitely not an ordinary person," Kurumi said. "Indeed, it seems like I really can't handle so many of you with just this one gun."
"What should we do, what should we do..." Kurumi seemed to suddenly think of something and said, "Ah! I've got it! If one gun isn't enough, why not use several guns?"
"If one 'me' isn't enough, then wouldn't it be enough if there were just more 'me's' in number?"
As expected, Kurumi was about to do something that would shock everyone again! The black shadow that had appeared before reappeared beneath her feet, but this time, the shadow was enormous, almost completely covering the surrounding open space.
What happened next made everyone's eyes widen. From the shadows, one Kurumi after another slowly stood up, each with the same smile on their face and holding the same flintlock pistol.
