Chapter 289 Battle for the Cape 32
"Can't I just be exceptionally talented?" Feng Bujue replied.
"Oh? I feel like… it is more sensible if you're using some kind of continuous pa.s.sive skill." Seven Kills shrugged. "But… since you don't want to comment on it, so be it.
"Back to the main issue, even I can see that unless I stand there and let you hit me, you won't win, and the longer this battle continues, the worse it will be for you, who has the lower Life and Stamina Points. You will lose the protracted battle. You won't deny that, right?"
"Hahaha…" Feng Bujue's lips twitched. "Congratulations for hitting the nail on the head."
"Haha… Don't misunderstand me, I'm not advising you to disconnect. I can see that you are the type of person who will not surrender until the last moment." Seven Kills smiled. "I'm just suggesting, since you are not that cornered, why don't you use your ultimate and deal with me using one shot?"
Seven Kills a.s.sumed his position. He worked his arms like in a warm-up.
"Sounds like… you wish to win using some kind of 'glorious' method…" Feng Bujue observed.
"That's right," Seven Kills admitted. "You've played arcade fighting games before, right? When you're facing the last enemy and the enemy is dying, everyone tries killing him with the ultimate."
Under the Bat Helmet, Seven Kills said with excitement, "Under the adoring gazes of the nearby players, the two hands leave the control panel, and looking at his controlled character make the finis.h.i.+ng move in slow motion, the win pops up on screen. That feeling…"
"Okay, I get it." Feng Bujue waved his hand to stop Seven Kills. "You only need to say, 'I'm going to use my ultimate to send you out of this scenario'. There's no need to give me the run through."
"Ah, yes, that's what I mean," Seven Kills said. "Of course, if you wish to drag this out, I don't mind."
"No," Feng Bujue said, "your suggestion is not bad."
He also gave it his all. He swallowed the health potion, his second of the scenario, and activated the Body Enhancement Spell.
"You like to fight in the style of Fist of the North Star, right? Fine, I'll play along." Feng Bujue knew that Seven Kills had given him all the leeway. Other people would not give him this chance to struggle. The Batsuit made the wearer invincible in close combat, and its expert tracing ability meant that escaping was pointless. In other words, if Seven Kills decided to play a game of cat and mouse, he would definitely win, but the man did not do that. He did not want the fight to end that way. A respectable opponent should have a respectable loss, and a powerful winner should accept a gracious victory.
"Ha! Good!" Seven Kills cried as the aura gathered around him, preparing his skill.
"Then, I won't hold back anymore." Feng Bujue took out the Bell of Jin Gang and activated the fourth function that doubled the effect of his next sorcery skill.
Then, he placed the bell in his s.h.i.+rt pocket. He gripped his fist and bent his knees, activated Kyaaa! with his bare hands, and chose the sorcery mastery. Feng Bujue was not armed with a weapon because he did not know what Seven Kills' ultimate was. In this kind of situation, using his bare fists would give him more room to negotiate, and the other reason was… he subjectively believed, if it was a random skill, using weapons like a wrench or stool as the medium would not work. Blades, swords, or whips might be better, but he had none of those, so bare fist it was.
"Okay… unknown energy is rus.h.i.+ng out from inside the body. What could it be?" Feng Bujue commented. "Special Beam Cannon, Destructo Disc, Spirit Ball… Any of them could turn the tables for me…"
Here, Brother Jue had misunderstood the nature of Qi. These three were all fighting skills, so they would not be activated since he had chosen the sorcery mastery.
"Even though I have no idea what you're grumbling about, I am going to make my move now…" Seeing that his enemy was prepared, Seven Kills shot forward, and as he made his move, he did not forget to shout out the name of the skill. "Pegasus Comet Fist!"
Seven Kills said that this was his ultimate because this was a skill that could only be learned at Mastery B fighting and could only be used once. Once, an unkillable youth used this skill to slay G.o.ds and demons. Now, it was used by Seven Kills, who did not know anything about the universe. Even though the power had decreased, it could not be taken easily by a normal person.
From the intensity of this skill, it proved that Seven Kills had given enough approval to Feng Bujue as an opponent. The type of opponent who could be on his level even though he was in a Batsuit, yeah, not using Pegasus Comet Fist might not finish him off with one hit.
When Feng Bujue heard the name of the skill, his heart dropped. Before this kind of attack, Soul's Eye was pointless. He placed his bet on the unknown skill that he was charging…
The fist phased through s.p.a.ce and time. A large, pale-blue body rushed at Feng Bujue. The fist was powerful and roared like a tiger. It burst forth like a rainbow. It would appear like Feng Bujue was dead!
At that moment, he had no fear, his heart was as still as water. He raised his arms and pushed out the skill. A dark hole corrupted the s.p.a.ce and sucked in the moonlight, and it then blossomed into billions of flickering lights.

Currently Feng Bujue's Sorcery Mastery was C. Similar to his Fighting Mastery, it had just risen during the battle with s.h.i.+va. With skill against skill, theoretically, it should be the Level B's Pegasus Comet Fist that was stronger, but… Feng Bujue had used the Bell of Jin Gang. So, his skill's power was double!
Once Void Light was unleashed, it suppressed the pus.h.i.+ng power of Pegasus Comet Fist and slowly swallowed it. Before Feng Bujue could be happy, two system announcements rang in his ears.
"The Void Light randomly activated skill has depleted all of your Sorcery Points. The overload caused by the skill depletes your Stamina Points by thirty percent.
"Your Stamina Points is empty. The additional depletion will be taken from your Life Points."
