Countdown
"Luo Tianming, where's your trump card?"
What about your backup plan?
"You always say that teaching your apprentice will starve you, so why don't you show us your hidden methods!"
Carrying 108 poison needles, he was also affected by the aftershocks of Luo Tianming being hit by a ton of explosives, and Luo Tianming was hit by two poison needles.
As the competition progressed, Professor Luo Hui discovered that the mountain that had previously weighed on him was not as insurmountable as he had imagined; in fact, he now stood atop a high mountain, looking down upon his opponent.
Taking advantage of the gap in Luo Tianming's continuous attacks, Professor Luo Hui obtained a poisoned needle, which put his mind at ease.
He even had the ability to mock Luo Tianming, further demoralizing the latter.
Professor Luo Hui was met with silence.
Having failed to fire the poisoned needle earlier, Luo Tianming can only rely on his own body now.
His body, which he relied on, was damaged by the explosion and the two poison needles. The explosion severely weakened his physical strength, while the poison needles restricted his right hand and right foot.
He could still maintain a basic balance with Professor Luo Hui in close combat at this point, but it was almost a fight to the death.
Professor Luo Hui can make jokes, but Luo Tianming has lost the power of irony.
At this moment, he was hoping that Zhang Xuezhou and others could fire a shot. As long as they could disrupt Professor Luo Hui's fighting rhythm, he would have a chance to counterattack and win.
He did have a trump card up his sleeve, but you can't just lay it bare.
No matter how many Po Gang Needles he has hidden, or how many countermeasures he has, he can only turn the tables when conditions are equal, not when he is in such dire straits and still has the ability to turn the tide.
Without outside assistance, Luo Tianming could already foresee his inevitable fate.
After waiting for Zhang Xuezhou to take aim for two minutes and forty-seven seconds, Luo Tianming ultimately did not hear the sound of a gunshot.
"Hey!"
He roared, and his right hand and right leg, which had been hit by the poisoned needles, began to attack relentlessly, regardless of the cost.
"Since you're not afraid of the poison attacking your heart, it seems you're determined to fight to the death. Then I'll start a countdown for you: fifty-three, fifty-two, fifty-one..."
Professor Luo Hui's countdown is a hypnotic death knell.
Luo Tianming had only one minute to launch his counterattack.
If he fails to subdue Luo Hui in a minute of hysterical rage, the toxins on the flying needles will indeed quickly infect and invade the core of his body through the bloodstream.
"There's no poison on your fingernails. The two holes you scratched aren't fatal. Eighteen, seventeen..."
Professor Luo Hui held a flying needle and stabbed repeatedly.
When he pierced Luo Tianming's body three times, he himself was also scratched by Luo Tianming's ten fingers, leaving two bloody holes.
A feeling of pain welled up inside him, but Professor Luo Hui had never felt such pleasure before.
If it weren't for the need to continue the countdown and further torment Luo Tianming's psyche, making his hysterical attacks even more chaotic, he would almost be laughing wildly right now.
"Luo Tianming, it's all over. Two, one!"
As the countdown ended, Luo Tianming collapsed to the ground, convulsing and spitting out mouthfuls of black blood.
"Hahaha!"
Decades of oppression have been lifted in a single day; the sheer relief is beyond words.
Professor Luo Hui felt the stuffy energy in his body being swept away, and the lightness of the energy almost made him float to the sky.
If entering the Seventh Sequence requires the best mindset, Professor Luo Hui feels that this is the most comfortable time of his life.
He laughed maniacally, pointing the poisoned needle at Luo Tianming.
Looking at the naked body curled up on the ground, Professor Luo Hui finally realized that Luo Tianming was on his deathbed and would never be able to turn the tables in his hands again.
He stared intently at Luo Tianming, his eyes also glancing at the distance out of the corner of his eye.
He was skilled with poison needles, and so was Luo Tianming. If someone were killed, it would be impossible to tell who did it, and Luo Tianming, as the deceased, would obviously not offer any explanation.
Thinking of Zhang Xuezhou and Song Sijia's numerous observations and the messages they sent to Luo Gaogao, Professor Luo Hui couldn't help but twitch his fingers slightly.
Just as he was about to flick out two poison needles, he suddenly felt a vast and ferocious aura assail him.
In his dazed state, he seemed to see a bottomless abyss of hell.
In the abyss, a ball of flame burned fiercely, as if it would incinerate him completely.
"It's a deterrent fighting technique, break it!"
Professor Luo Hui was greatly alarmed.
As if drowning, he struggled desperately upwards.
Since Luo Tianming doesn't know any intimidation fighting techniques, it's not hard to guess who else is using them.
But Professor Luo Hui found it hard to believe; he, a dignified Sixth Sequence, had actually been intimidated.
When the Deterrence Fighting Technique is backward compatible, it is virtually invincible and fearless against group attacks. However, its effectiveness in upward compatibility is questionable, placing it relatively low in the same sequence.
It's not surprising that Sixth Sequence fighter with the Intimidation Combat Technique Sequence Holder would find it difficult to suppress Professor Luo Hui and be defeated by him.
Professor Luo Hui found it even harder to believe that he had been overthrown by his subordinates.
He would rather accept being countered by special firearms and being taken advantage of after exhaustion than believe that he was actually intimidated.
"Snap!"
The trigger rang out again.
Compared to before, the gunshot after the trigger click had a more rounded and solid feel this time.
When Professor Luo Hui emerged from the abyss's influence, he felt excruciating pain in his right hand.
He didn't need to look to know that his wrist had been shot through or even broken.
Damn it!
As he swiftly raised his left hand toward Zhang Xuezhou and the others, everything went black again, the abyss's influence reappeared, and then he heard the sounds of triggers and gunshots once more.
The intense pain was accompanied by a sense of awakening, and even Professor Luo Hui's resilient nature could not stop the effects of this pain.
The earlier maniacal laughter turned into a frantic, suppressed pain within.
It should have been him who struck first to kill Zhang Xuezhou and the others, but Professor Luo Hui had no idea why Zhang Xuezhou had targeted him beforehand. The other party didn't even hesitate for a moment before striking, and Song 237's aim was extremely accurate. Song Sijia, who was only responsible for firing the gun, knew how to shoot after the first shot.
"Impossible!"
After the third gunshot, Professor Luo Hui could no longer support his body.
He wanted to escape but couldn't, and wanted to fight back but couldn't either; he was practically being shot at like a target.
If Zhang Xuezhou and others hadn't had reservations, the first shot might have hit his forehead or heart, instead of just breaking his limbs.
Hahaha~
A murky mixture of blood and tears dripped from Professor Luo Hui's eyes.
Whether he becomes disabled or something else, he is the victor in his contest with Luo Tianming.
As long as he lives, he will one day stand on the victor's podium.
With a heavy thud, Professor Luo Hui fell to Luo Tianming's right, his body also convulsing in a curled-up manner, accompanied by his maniacal laughter.
It wasn't until a familiar poisoned needle was inserted into his chest that Professor Luo Hui's madness turned into fear and despair.
"You bastard, my resistance to poison is far stronger than you imagine. Even if the poison attacks my heart, I can still barely survive. Now do you know my trump card?"
Luo Tianming's low voice came through, accompanied by a countdown in his dying breaths.
"Fifty-four, fifty-three..."
