Chapter 614: Instant Kill Without Warning

In addition, there is another point that is very suspicious. Xia Shou doesn't know if this is a coincidence.

That is, the end of the dead line is exactly at the distance where he cannot pay the price even if he backtracks once.

To achieve this, there are several prerequisites that need to be met.

First, you need to know his specific location and the time when he is going to activate [Suicide], otherwise it will have no effect if you are far away.

Second, the other party must also know the details of the price of [seeking death]. If the price is not known, it is impossible to set a trap for the price.

According to the first premise, two possibilities can be derived.

The first is that this trap is set in advance, and the other party knows exactly when and where he will launch [Searching for Death].

This means that the other party has the ability to predict the future.

Second, the trap is set temporarily.

If you follow this line of reasoning, although the other party cannot predict the future, you can easily observe whether he has used [Suicide].

Although the self-destructive backtracking can be observed by the deep diver using the depth transient of the Origin Sea, the problem now is that he has not started backtracking at all!

In other words, if the opponent can either predict the future, or he can perfectly predict when he will initiate a suicide attempt, and set a trap at the most suitable location in a very short period of time.

There are many people who know that they are seeking death, including Shi Lu Jiu, Shangguan Yan, Su Weiyu and Su Yue, but perhaps no one can observe it in real time.

It is possible for most ministers to do it, but never for others.

But there is no way the minister would do this to him.

To put it bluntly, if the minister really wanted to punish him, he could easily punish him to death.

Not to mention that the minister held so many secrets about him, and even killing someone with a borrowed knife could make the Control Bureau imprison him. Even if he was forced to do it directly, Xia Shou didn't think he had any chance of winning.

Although most of what happened in Vogt has been forgotten, the information recorded in Vogt's diary is enough to prove that the minister's combat effectiveness is overwhelmingly stronger than him.

In this case, who else?

People who can know his secret are people who already know it without him telling it, like the Death Note.

Xia Shou was startled, with an expression of extreme surprise and realization on his face.

It's that traitor!

According to what Dead Bi said, he also had companions when he traveled to this world before.

But in the end, there was a traitor among them!

The next second, Xia Shou entered death retrospect and came to a void where he chose to retrospect time.

"What?"

Xia Shou looked confused.

Is he... dead?

He died without any memory, and his killer didn't give him any time to react.

This shows that it was not beheading, but the other party directly destroyed his brain and killed him.

But that’s not right!

The most dangerous dead line at his feet has not yet reached it, and it has not been approaching it at the last moment in his memory, nor has it moved. Other dead lines pose no threat to him at all, and there is no tendency to approach it at the last moment in his memory, and the degree of danger is not at all. change.

In this case, there is nothing that can cause such fatal damage to him and kill him in an instant.

What happened before the backtrack?

Xia Shou vaguely felt that he could no longer stay and think in this void. He felt as if he was about to be washed away in the river. He must immediately choose a point to retrace.

Xia Shou did not hesitate and chose the time when he had just started seeking his own death.

calm.

You must stay calm at this time.

Xia Shou took another look at the red lines at his feet, and his mind was thinking rapidly.

He was sure that the enemies hiding in the dark already knew that he was backtracking.

The other party even knew the time when he launched Suicide, so it was impossible not to know about the backtracking phenomenon that could be discovered through changes in the depth of the Source Sea.

Xia Shou concluded that the first instant kill without any warning was a trap specially set for him by the opponent!

The mastermind behind the scenes set up all this carefully in order to hide the instant killing method.

Xia Shou once again called up the skill panel of Suicide and read the information above in detail——

[Cost: You can only choose the most dangerous path forward, and advance at least 100 meters, and there is no way to turn back.

When the danger level of the location reaches a fatal level, there is no need to continue moving forward, and the price is modified to stay within the skill circle for ten minutes.

This power requires 24 hours to cool down. 】

If the position he is currently standing in reaches a lethal level, he does not need to move forward.

In the Blood Demon's House, Xia Shou had been in this situation when he encountered the Blood Demon. The reminder that he did not need to move forward was very obvious. It was a feeling that clearly told him that he could die in his current position.

But just now, he didn't reach the end, nor did he feel like he was in death.

Not fatal, but dead...

How did the other party do it?

While his brain was running wildly, Xia Shou activated the Impermanent Eyes and said at the same time: "Alice, capture the vision of everyone within range."

As he spoke, Xia Shou took out Dorian Gray's pocket watch from his pocket and pressed the button.

With the activation of Alice's ability, a large number of fields of view filled Xia Shou's field of vision. Except for his own field of view, which occupied the largest area like the main screen, the fields of view of other passers-by were distributed around like small split screens. Following the change of Xia Shou's attention, it automatically became larger and smaller.

"Is there nothing that cannot be taken away?" Xia Shou asked coldly.

"Only Mr. Edward can't do it." Alice replied softly.

"Really?" Xia Shou frowned even more.

He didn't activate the scorpion spine, but used his own first-level ability to explore the surroundings. If there were LV2 or above extraordinary people around, Alice would find them.

But the result was no.

No way... Could it be that LV1 killed him instantly?

What a joke.

Xia Shou held the pocket watch tightly and was alert to the surroundings.

Edward once again noticed Xia Shou's abnormality and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Prepare for battle." Xia Shou said in a low voice.

Xia Shou could feel the adrenaline in his body being secreted crazily, not only adrenaline, but all stress hormones were being secreted.

His reaction speed was improved to a level far beyond that of ordinary people, and his sympathetic nerves were extremely active.

If a doctor came to give Xia Shou a physical examination at this time, he would find that many of the indicators in his body had reached the lethal level, but under the coordination of multiple side effects, they inexplicably achieved a certain balance.

Sweat was slightly secreted, and his throat was beating with the heartbeat.

He was already fully focused, and he also used a pocket watch to protect himself from risks.

To be honest, Xia Shou was very hesitant about whether to use the Blood Demon Mask in advance.

If the Blood Demon Mask was used, the defensive effect would be better than the pocket watch, and he would still survive even if he was shot in the head.

But the problem was that the Blood Demon Mask had a limited duration, and the enemy was in the dark, so they could fight a protracted war.

The mask was his biggest trump card, and he couldn't take it out easily at this stage.

Just rely on the purest physical reaction to deal with the next attack. As long as he could react, he could use [Flash Kill] to teleport away!
