Qiji's figure blurred for a moment under everyone's gaze.
The next second!
Fire rained down on him, storms blew past him, and icy blades grazed him.
Qiji- ya--
Cannot be selected!!!
Suyo, who was standing right next to him, stared wide-eyed in disbelief at the scene.
She finally began to vaguely understand—
Why did my devastating rain of fire leave Qiji completely unharmed...?
No!
Are you still playing or not?
So shameless!
What else could this be but a machine-driven dog?!
Suyo was so anxious he wanted to curse.
They had already exchanged blows several times, but the more she fought, the less she understood...
What exactly is the Echo from Qiji???
Was his Echo the lightning spectrum or this one?
Just as Suyo was still wondering, the next moment, something even more shocking happened!
Suddenly, the blue-purple electric patterns flashing on Qiji's pure white mask disappeared.
The next moment, flowing water ripples and frosty ice patterns flashed by.
At the same time, the rock Echo that Suyo had painstakingly constructed in front of him was instantly submerged by Qiji's water, frozen into ice, and suddenly shattered.
Then, before the girl could react, the patterns on Qiji's mask changed again!
Like rolling lava, they intertwine to form blazing fire patterns!
Flames erupted instantly, Qiji, engulfed in flames, slammed his fist towards her!
The Suyo a great shock!
The scene before me felt both extremely familiar and utterly absurd.
The mask changes, then the lineage switches...
Are you kidding me?!
Could his Echo also be [Thousand Faces]?!
In short, at this critical moment, Suyo had no time to think and hurriedly urged the Person in the Mirror to act!
The four mirrors immediately Suyo, frantically using Echo, all in an attempt to stop Qiji.
Earth Release: Earth Release rose again, fireballs fell again, storms swept in again, and frost froze again.
However, Qiji countered each move with breathtaking speed.
Flames scorch the frost, storms collide with storms, and ice and snow extinguish the fire rain.
At the same time, Qiji leaped over the earthen wall in an instant, once again facing the Suyo directly.
Damn it!
Suyo's little brain was almost completely blank at this moment.
She didn't understand, she really didn't understand!
What's wrong with this guy?
What exactly was his Echo?
Moreover, why can't I sense any resonance between him and the Sea of Consciousness?
He didn't even construct the circuit!
This guy, all his "Echo" are instantaneous!!!
In short, there was no other way but to Suyo at this point; it was a last resort.
"True Name: Double Deconstruction!"
The moment the words left her lips, the girl's body shattered like a mirror.
In Setsuna, he switched places with one of the clones in the four mirrors.
The clone was smashed into 58 hero fragments by Qiji's punch.
"Oh?"
Witnessing this scene, Qiji, hidden behind the mask, let out a soft "hmm" and expressed his interest.
In the next instant, the four versions of themselves in the Mirror of Suyo simultaneously entered a state of overload activation!
Overloading the Echo to unleash the most ferocious power in the shortest amount of time!
In the mirror--
Earth, rocks, fire, storms, frost!
Various elements appeared in succession, raining down on Qiji.
Qiji countered each move with equally dazzling ice, fire, wind, and thunder.
For a moment, the scene on the arena resembled a magical clash, incredibly dazzling!
The spectators were overwhelmed by the spectacle and thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
They don't even care who wins or loses; they just want to watch it all the time and have a good time!
Of course, gambling addicts are an exception.
And so, with the help of Suyo, Qiji familiarized himself with the Flame Fist, Thunder Fist, Ice Fist Storm Fist Haymaker that he had only recently mastered.
He glanced at his watch every now and then.
I played along with them for about ten seconds.
"It's about time."
With a flash, Qiji appeared in front of the mirror in the southeast corner.
"?!"
Suyo was shocked; she didn't even know how Qiji had managed to discern her true identity!
However, because she had just used the [Double Deconstruction] Mirror Image Exchange, the loop was still overloaded and could not be used again.
She had no choice but to take the hit.
She had no choice!
Suyo gritted his teeth and forcefully activated all the remaining Heart Essence!
The other three clones in the mirror simultaneously released Echo, ensuring that Qiji would have to be saved!
Qiji either has to defend against her Echo, or both sides will be severely damaged; neither side will come out unscathed!
However, just when Suyo thought that Qiji would choose the former...
That guy, however, didn't choose either!
Qiji's figure blurred for a moment once again before her eyes.
"?!"
Suyo's eyes widened in surprise!
I'm questioning the meaning of life!
Unbelievable!
I can't understand it!
Qiji's Echo clearly involved the power of concepts!
And every time this level of Echo is released, it will inevitably trigger [overload]!
Just like her [Mirror Image Exchange]!
It's absolutely impossible to use it continuously in a short period of time!
This is the truth of this world!
These are the underlying rules written into the Sea of Consciousness!
How could this guy possibly be?!
Amidst the disbelief and growing terror in Suyo's eyes, Qiji leaped high into the air, his body engulfed in flames.
Since he had promised to demonstrate for Huomu, Qiji ultimately chose to finish with [Flame Fist].
"?!"
Suyo looked up at Qiji as if gazing at the bright, high-hanging sun in the sky!
then--
The mirror was shattered by Qiji's punch.
In an instant, Suyo's true form was revealed in the mirror.
Suyo's hands were still working hard to build the circuit, and he couldn't free his hands for the moment. In desperation, he could only use his headbutt.
The masked face slammed hard into Qiji's fist.
There was a "click" sound.
The mask she wore since she was little, her brother's mask...
A thin, long crack appeared.
The cracks spread down from the forehead to the jawline.
Then, it split in two.
The mask that Suyo never removed in front of outsiders fell away in that instant.
Her face, streaked with tears and glistening snot, was revealed.
As far back as she can remember, Suyo has always been a girl who cries very easily.
Unlike her brother, she wasn't strong, so she couldn't help but shed tears.
But since I'm wearing a mask, it's okay.
No matter how pathetic or ugly the crying is, it can all be hidden behind a mask.
So, it's okay.
When she was five years old, she cried when she first put on her brother's mask.
I cried when I attended my brother's funeral.
I cried when I was so exhausted from training that I could barely keep going.
I cried when I forced myself to put on a sour face at Bai Lili.
She kept crying.
Even during her match with Qiji, she was crying as she fought.
She wanted to hold back, but she couldn't.
Tears never listen to reason.
Besides, you're wearing a mask anyway, aren't you?
No one will see it, so it doesn't matter.
As long as I don't cry out loud, it doesn't matter.
