Chapter 246: Reversal of Offense and Defense
With the flying birds helping me to run away, Yamata no Orochi would not be able to catch me no matter how fast he was. However, there was no problem at first, but then something went wrong.
Although the world within this short distance is not too small, it is not a complete world after all. Its actual area is actually only slightly larger than the area of a super city. If you say it's big, it's not really small. But if you say it's small, it's not really big.
At first, Yamata no Orochi sensed my position and rushed towards me quickly, but how fast is Asuka? Even if Yamata no Orochi did not hesitate to waste his divine power to forcefully accelerate there, it would be wishful thinking to catch up with the speed of the flying bird. Because of this huge difference in speed, it stands to reason that when Yamata no Orochi rushed to the location where it first detected me, there was no one there. However, Yamata no Orochi did not give up after discovering that I was not there, but immediately used divine perception again.
Although this divine perception covers a large area and has certain anti-invisibility capabilities, this skill has other flaws, that is, its detection is not continuous, but fragmentary. In fact, divine power perception is very similar to sonar, except that sonar emits sound waves and then monitors echolocation, while divine power perception emits divine power and then senses the disturbance that occurs when the divine power encounters other energy bodies to locate the target. There are two problems in this process. The first is the spread speed of divine power. This divine perception does not mean that the location of all surrounding targets can be known immediately as soon as it is activated, but it must have time to spread. When divine power perception is activated, the god who releases this skill will radiate a circle of divine power shock waves outwards. This is also the reason why Yamata no Orochi did not dare to use divine power perception for fear of being absorbed by the divine power.
After the shock wave is formed, it does not sweep across the limit range it can reach instantly, but there is a diffusion process. The diffusion speed of this divine shock wave is approximately between 180 meters and 200 meters per second. It doesn't sound slow, but it is actually much lower than the speed of sound. This means that this detection method is actually less sensitive than sonar, and there is almost no way to accurately detect high-speed targets. At least if a being like Asuka uses supersonic assault, Yamata no Orochi can only receive outdated feedback signals, because although his divine power can scan us. But when the signal returned, we were actually no longer there, and it was far away.
In addition to the problem of the speed of the spread of divine power, another flaw of this divine power perception is its instantaneity.
When the divine shock wave spreads, what it presents in the mind of the god who issued this skill is not a complete picture, but a picture of an ever-expanding circular area. You can imagine a person with superpowers standing in a dark square. He can shoot an ever-expanding halo outward. The halo illuminates nearby objects, but only to a small extent. When this person releases the aura. The halo begins to expand, illuminating the area it sweeps. At this time, the person in the middle can see the situation in this area. However, the halo is not fixed. As it rapidly expands, more surrounding areas are illuminated, but the areas just swept will enter darkness again. If something moves in the dark area at this time, the person in the center will never be able to see it.
This divine perception is also a similar situation. When the divine shock wave sweeps across, a signal can be fed back to the god that emits divine power perception. However, the problem is that after the shock wave sweeps over the target, when the target moves again, the god has no way of knowing whether the other party has moved. When the target's movement speed is faster than the spread speed of the divine shock wave. There are big loopholes in this detection method. Although it can be tracked based on this, it is very difficult to accurately grasp the target location. Even the speed of the target does not have to be faster than the speed of the divine shock wave. As long as it is close to that speed, the detection effect will be very bad.
The tactical adjustments Yamata no Orochi made after regaining his sanity can be said to be very correct, but the problem is that although the range of divine power perception is very large, I cannot avoid it at all. But I can run. After Yamata no Orochi's divine power scanned me, by the time Yamata no Orochi arrived at this location, I would have already run far away.
Because of the existence of this situation, Yamata no Orochi was unable to do anything to me at first. Every time he detected my position and rushed over, he always missed me. However, this situation soon became problematic.
Although the space within such a short distance is huge. But after all, there is a limit, and in this kind of closed area, it is impossible for us to completely run out of the sensing range of Yamata no Orochi. Besides, we are always circling around him. Naturally, Yamata no Orochi can gradually pass through the angle with the edge area. Squeeze us into a certain area. Besides, Yamata no Orochi is not really good at hand-to-hand combat. He is a god after all. Although he is not a specialty in magic, he is always good at it. With the cooperation of some such as spider magic, slowness magic and various magic traps. It took the Yamata no Orochi more than an hour to finally squeeze us into a small area. In such an environment, the speed of the flying bird cannot be used at all. The result is that we were finally seen by Yamata no Orochi.
Nearly two hours have passed since it was first detected. This is the first time Yamata no Orochi has seen our figure. Although it only flashed past the edge of darkness in the distance, it was discovered after all.
Originally, the dark environment was very disadvantageous for Yamata no Orochi, because he has no night vision ability, but after I entered the period of weakness, I discovered a weakness of Asuka, that is, he is not suitable for hide and seek in dark environments. In fact, if it is the vast world outside, the flying bird is also very suitable for night fighting, because the flying bird's head is at the back of the body, and what he has the courage to navigate is not vision, but electromagnetic pulses, so the flying bird's requirements for light are almost zero. This is an ability that is perfect for night fighting. However, this adaptability is also relative. In the vast world, this kind of night vision ability combined with the unparalleled speed of the bird will definitely be a killer in the night sky. But the problem is that in this narrow area, the speed of the bird cannot be fully utilized, and there is not enough space for the bird to pull away from the opponent. Open the distance, so a flaw of the flying bird is exposed.
The flaw of flying birds is concealment. The flying bird is a synthetic beast. It is not a pure monster. Its flight method does not rely on its wings to flap the air. In fact, the flying bird uses jet power, and its propulsion method relies on burning a synthetic gas similar to biogas in the combustion chamber on the wings to fly. This method of propulsion determines the speed at which a flying bird can surpass any flying creature that relies solely on flapping the air with its wings for propulsion. However, this method also determines that the flying bird's wings will spit fire from behind. That's right, it's fire breathing. When the bird flies in a normal state, a light cyan high-bright flame wake will appear behind the four combustion chambers on its wings. If it enters a supersonic assault state, the color of the flame will change from green to blue, and the brightness will increase. Declines slightly, but the length of the wake will increase. When the speed reaches the limit, the flame will turn into a mixed state of white, blue, and red. When the bird performs a large-angle maneuver, the flame will completely turn red. .
This kind of jet wake is not very big compared to the body of the flying bird. If it is high enough, this light is easily ignored, and even if it is seen, it will probably be ignored as stars in the starry sky. . However, there are no stars at all in this steel hell. What's even worse is that there is no space for us to distance ourselves, so trouble begins.
When Yamata no Orochi relied on unreliable divine perception to scan and compress our range of activities over and over again, he finally discovered the tail flame of the flying bird after he approached a certain distance, and then this guy smelled blood. Like a smelly shark, it caught up with him.
"Left side." As I roared, the bird rolled like lightning, and flew past a red light that flew past.
Just after completing the dodge, Feiniao immediately reminded me: "Master, please stop screaming. I can see what's going on behind you, so there's no need to remind me."
"Aren't I nervous! Flash to the right!" As I was talking, another beam of light flew past, but the flying bird still dodged past it like it was doing acrobatics. In fact, it is good for Asuka to have his head on his back. At least he will not be afraid of someone attacking him from behind.
Yamata no Orochi's speed can't catch up with us at all, but without considering the consumption of divine power, this guy is completely a turret. Various large-scale and high-damage attacks are flying one after another, and we are like a target in front. We can only dodge back and forth, but fortunately Asuka's eyes are behind it and its mobility is super high, otherwise we would have been beaten down long ago. However, it’s not a problem if it continues like this! Although we have successfully dodged dozens of attacks so far, there is an old saying that if you often walk by the river, your shoes will not get wet. Accidents are almost inevitable when the frequency of incidents is too high, so we must think There are ways to change this situation, otherwise we will be beaten sooner or later.
Judging from the damage done after the few beams missed by Yamata no Orochi just hit the nearby steel pillars, I will definitely not be killed by this attack, but Asuka will definitely not be able to withstand a blow. Yamata no Orochi is not stupid either, he is very shrewd after regaining his senses. What he needed was to knock me down, not to kill me with one blow, so under the premise that the hit rate could not be guaranteed, he chose this attack method that had just enough power but relatively low consumption.
"Master, how long will it take for you to recover? We will be beaten sooner or later!" Asuka said while dodging the attack.
I also answered anxiously: "There are still ten minutes left, just hold on a little longer. As long as we don't get shot down before the penalty time is over, we still have a chance."
"Then I'll try my best! Yamata no Orochi's attacks are becoming more and more accurate. I don't know if I can last that long!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
