Chapter 1,446 The Disappearing Target
Someone's act of self-mutilation made it clear to him that today's battle could not continue no matter what. Even if Apollos didn't stop, he didn't have the ability to continue to fight against her.
In the past, I had more offense than defense. That was due to the way the enemy and I fought. It was not that I was really strong enough to overwhelm the opponent.
Without hands, of course one cannot use the sword. The anti-guardian Hakiri is not a Zhansato form, and it is simply a delusion to break through the defense of the Lord of Guardians. Therefore, it makes no sense at all to change the anti-guard box switch into a one-handed sword form.
Although his body has been transformed into a demon, the ability to regenerate severed limbs is not on his list. This is different from wound healing. How many cells must be proliferated to regenerate the lost limb.
But if you take the broken palm back and reconnect it, you can recover quickly. A simple matter like attaching bones to flesh and blood vessels can be treated as a wound. With the specificity of this physical body, Lin doesn't even need to control it himself. When Broken Palm approaches, this kind of thing will happen automatically.
But Lin didn't do that. Although Ke Yin's divine power was retracted into the Holy Emblem Mark, Lin still fired a fireball, burning his broken left hand and the blood that had been spattered before.
An old topic, the curse that is cast by using a part of the target's body is very difficult to prevent. A certain time traveler doesn't want to leave any clues.
But such behavior really offended the Gold Goddess.
I have never seen her walk into the light wearing a military uniform. He asked angrily: "Magic, you really want to sever ties with me! Aren't you afraid that I will invalidate all the things you have done?"
Lin seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and asked jokingly: "Oh, are you willing? Your Majesty Ke Yin."
There are two categories of worldly affairs. The first is to implement it with a strong hand, which may be harmful to the interests of most people in the short term, but it is a good thing for long-term development, and it is even a must. The promotion of one or the other is in line with the interests of the vast majority of people.
The former is prone to the problem of people dying and government resting. As long as the executor is gone, everything he once implemented is like a bullet, and will quickly bounce back to its original appearance. Nothing was left but chicken feathers on the ground.
The most common situation of the latter is that if the pusher either dies from hard work, or is kicked aside by vested interests, the whole situation is taken over. In order to obtain maximum benefits, even monopoly benefits, those who have considerable strength will naturally want to dominate everything, rather than being a small citizen at the mercy of others.
I don’t dare to talk about knowledge yet, but the things Lin promotes and arranges are in the interest of everyone. Are people or gods who have tasted the sweetness willing to throw away the benefits that come to their mouths? Lin didn't believe it at all.
That's why he dared to confidently ask the goddess in front of him, which made Ke Yin furious!
Unless she is forced to do so, it is really impossible for the Gold Goddess to give up on the implementation of the bank.
Ke Yin thought of his former self, who was a marginal god among weak gods. It would not be surprising if he fell from the altar. But now, even the Lord of Wealth, one of the eight powers, wants to come and compete with him. If Apollos hadn't taken action, he would have become the fat man's target.
If I give up the bank on my own initiative, believe it or not, that fat man will squat in the next second and occupy it and refuse to leave. The competition between gods is far more cruel than mortals can imagine.
For Lin, the advantage of following the trend and promoting something is that it doesn't take much effort. Even if you let go of the banking business and don't have yourself at the helm, won't the bank develop on its own?
Although I have plans for this new financial business, I have personally experienced the horror of allowing a financial monster to be born. But for a person who is not a finance and economics major, Lin cannot guarantee that the direction he controls is correct and good for most people.
Maybe it would be a better choice to let development go and find its own financial path.
Therefore, Lin has no hesitation about giving up his voter status. Of course I don’t regret it either. It's definitely not a case of laziness or aversion to being a consultant and doing social work.
But Apollos on the side was slightly dissatisfied with the fact that the goddess of gold coins intervened and staged a drama that seemed to have nothing to do with her. She can defeat the magician without the help of her friends. Especially when the other party also cut off one of his hands.
The Lord of Guardians himself would not feel guilty about bullying. Because she is standing in the position of protector, as long as it is the evil party, no matter what miserable situation the other party falls into, she will come forward to attack the other party.
Although he doesn't care if the fight is 'fair', Apollos won't use any despicable means due to his personality. At least when those companions who were not on the same side attracted the magician's attention, she had no intention of taking the opportunity to make a sneak attack.
But she couldn't always watch the show. The alien metal monster in the sky is still roaring, the land is being melted inch by inch, and countless lives are disappearing at the same time. The Lord of Guardians must prevent this. This is her duty and mission.
The soul shackle on his right hand fell heavily to the ground, and the gently swinging chain made a harsh metal friction sound. As if telling the others, the owner of the chain was becoming more and more impatient.
Lin could still feel such hints. He tilted his head, showed a rather fake business smile, and said, "Want to continue?"
Before he finished speaking, the shackles rushed towards a certain magician!
Lin raised his left arm, which was missing his palm, to block it. The shackles made of unknown materials, neither gold nor iron, tightly clasped someone's left forearm.
Without the burden of the palm, the bare wrist should be able to break free easily. But the fact is that Lin's forearm was tightly clasped by the shackles, and he could not pull his arm out of the shackle ring in the direction.
This is certainly not an undeclared war or a sneak attack. I was already in the middle of a battle, and I didn't pay attention and was hit by someone. Who else could I cry to?
Moreover, the fact that this cuffing was so smooth was probably the result of someone letting loose. Lin wanted to try the effectiveness of this pair of shackles. This was the most direct way to understand an ability. The condition of his left hand and his confidence in the flash technique gave him the confidence to give it a try.
But after being handcuffed, Lin once again confirmed that he shouldn't be too confident. This pair of shackles is not as simple as I thought.
Because what it cuffs is not the physical body, but the soul in a certain concept. It may be that protection is the main concept, and concepts such as 'bloody battle', 'fighting to the death', and 'not letting the enemy take a step beyond his reach' are also used on the left.
In short, the moment he was handcuffed, Lin felt like he was being captured from the depths of his soul.
In order to break free from the shackles on his arms, Lin also tried to use the flash technique to move his arms from their original position in space. However, the result was that the shackles moved with the flash, as if it was one with itself.
What is even more devastating than being cuffed by these shackles is that Apollos can follow the chains and get close to the target in an instant. Before Lin could figure out the principle behind this, the thickened giant shield struck him in the face again.
Would you like to chop off your own hand again?
With such thoughts flashing through his mind, Lin replaced the anti-life hakiri in his right hand with the anti-guarding hakiri and blocked it in front of him again.
Although it could not completely block this shot, the anti-guardian equation still worked, completely removing the divine power of this shield hit. The remaining impact force was blocked by the power of Xuanwu Robe.
Even so, someone is still like a bouncy ball, being knocked out by the shield of the guardian lord, and then being pulled back by the soul shackles.
Lin tried to use the anti-protection box cutter to cut off the chain part of the soul shackles. Without much effort, the chain melted when it touched the sword blade, splitting into two. Both ends of the chain also fell to the ground.
But after the sword blade passed by, the broken chains were connected again. The effect of limiting a person's movement range and the ability to teleport the Lord of Guardians to him again and again remain unchanged. Coupled with the constant but effective shield slap in the face, Lin had a whole new experience with the word "stalker".
It's just that the defense of Xuanwu Robe is not that easy to break through. Every shield strike of Apollos seemed to be extremely powerful, but in the end it only left negligible damage on someone. It is more serious than scratching the skin.
After being photographed like this several times, Lin laughed. While laughing, he also spat out the blood from his loose teeth and bleeding gums.
This laughter also made the Lord of Guardians stop his attack. She looked at the magician in front of her sternly, as if she could break the thin neck with just one stretch of her hand. She said: "Are you crazy, mortal?"
"If I am really crazy, I can't tell you the correct answer. In fact, I am just curious, great Lord of Guardians, what is your purpose in finding me?"
Apollos got angry when he asked a question knowingly! She instinctively wanted to slap this guy in the face again, but the next moment, she also noticed that something was wrong.
The nine people who had been following him for a long time came to him with shields. Shouldn't they be in the sky to stop those monster attacks? I can deal with this magician without their help. No one's help is needed!
And in the sky...it was originally just from the corner of my eye. But in order to confirm, Apollos turned his head and looked at the clear blue sky through the gap in the ruined meeting hall. The torrent of metal that covered the sky and the sun before seemed fake, leaving no trace at all.
That team of metal monsters...retreated?
She didn't notice that the magician in front of her gave an order to retreat, or that he showed any signs of surrender. Then the remaining possibilities,
It can only be... that cruel answer!
Lin was still smiling. But the sour taste in his mouth made him grit his teeth and gasp. With the Xuanwu robe for self-defense, he escaped the fate of being beaten to pulp by the shield of the guardian lord. But there are no major injuries, small injuries are inevitable. Those small injuries accumulate and make someone suffer as much as if they were beaten up by a street gangster.
But Lin still said proudly: "You failed to protect those who are not worth protecting. Are you planning to take revenge now? Use this method of revenge afterwards to intimidate potential enemies from doing anything rash. Your Majesty, what do you think? Can it be included in the concept of protection? If this is possible, then every time you have to wait for a bunch of people to die before taking action, then what do the dead people mean to you?"
