Chapter 1193: Tactics
Joseph Ke was strong, 90 points of intelligence was saying a lot, but his skills weren't well suited for a one - on-one battle.
If Joseph were to fight on the battlefield, the army under him would become stronger by an order of magnitude due to his fearlessness and dramatically increased strength, and on top of that, his holy power would be able to kill a huge number of enemy warriors.
Su Xiao felt that Joseph Ke had created at least hundreds of thousands of fine needles with his holy power. They were very thin and invisible, but they contained a powerful poison.
If Joseph were to attack the enemy army with these needles, he would definitely be able to kill a huge number of enemy warriors. One small wound would have been enough to send a person tumbling to the ground dead.
And since he had obviously spent a lot of time on the battlefield, he had solid combat experience.
Facing such an enemy, the best choice was to attack head-on.
Loud noises began to resound in the residence. Su Xiao jumped between the walls, dodging the tiny needles every now and then.
Joseph kept his eyes on Su Xiao, but he didn't try to kill Su Xiao, only wanted to delay him for a while.
But if he gets the chance, he certainly won't show any mercy.
A huge number of thin needles were rushing towards Su Xiao endlessly, and he seemed to be in a dangerous position, but he was actually not in any danger. On top of everything else, he also discovered that his Qing Gang Yin energy was extremely effective in containing this " holy power».
Just the mere contact of the holy power with Qing Gang Yin's energy caused those needles to immediately evaporate.
Unlike Su Xiao, it was Joseph who felt the danger right now. Every time Su Xiao destroyed his holy power with Qing Gang Yin energy, it felt like small needles were being stuck into his body.
After bouncing off the wall, Su Xiao slammed his fist into the ceiling and his body was suspended in midair. The shields around his body immediately flew out in all directions, knocking the needles to the floor.
With this action, he created a window for himself.
After creating a small shield under his feet, Su Xiao stepped on it with both feet and immediately jumped straight into Joseph with a bang.
Flying towards his target, he swung his sword in front of him, cutting apart a huge number of needles.
Joseph put his hands out in front of him and clenched his fists.
A holy power appeared above Su Xiao and began to rapidly form an invisible giant hand.
The giant hand immediately clenched into a fist after forming and slammed down.
It wasn't Su Xiao's fist that attacked, but the space in front of him. If he continued to fly forward, this fist would end up directly hitting his barrier and most likely slamming him into the floor.
Upon realizing this, Su Xiao immediately formed an energy shield in front of him and broke the connection with it, then touched it with one hand.
*Boom!*
The shield shattered, and Su Xiao stopped and jumped back.
*Boom!*
An invisible fist crashed down, leaving a clear imprint in the floor.
After landing, Su Xiao squatted down and the muscles on his legs immediately tightened slightly, causing the floor beneath him to crack.
In the next instant, Su Xiao rushed forward again, leaving a web of cracks on the floor behind him.
— What? Joseph was a little surprised. He saw that his opponent had decided to attack him in the same way for the second time, and he decided to attack him as before, head-on.
There were still about a hundred thousand small needles floating in front of Joseph.
In fact, this was the second time his opponent had wanted to step into his trap.
The needles rushed forward like streams of water. A series of similar unpleasant sounds began to reverberate through the residence, but the barrier around Su Xiao prevented these needles from reaching his body.
He felt a strong resistance, but he could still move forward.
The distance between them was rapidly closing. Ten meters, eight, seven...
— So that's your plan. You're too young, " Joseph muttered, stretching out his hands and tens of thousands of thin needles stabbed at great speed into the barrier around Su Xiao, almost completely wrapping him up.
After that, Joseph clenched his fists. Two huge hands formed above Su Xiao and immediately began to fall on him. Although there was a barrier around his body, such a double attack would definitely nail him to the floor and deal significant damage.
Two hands clenched into fists and touched the barrier around Su Xiao. In just a second, it was covered in cracks all over, and hundreds and thousands of needles began to strike those cracks.
— What?! Joseph exclaimed and immediately jumped forward as he felt something cold touch his back.
*Pouf*
Blood splattered on the floor. The skin on Joseph's back was cut open, revealing a view of his white spine, but he managed to stay on his feet, which wasn't surprising, as he had 88 points of stamina. If the Dragon Flash quality hadn't been upgraded to gold, this attack probably wouldn't have been able to break through Joseph's defense.
In addition to his outstanding stamina, he also had 90 intelligence points, but he only had 120 mana points. Where did all his mana go? The answer was very simple — the vast majority of his mana was converted to health.
Joseph's skin crawled. Qing Gang Yin's energy invaded his body, but it didn't deal a huge amount of true damage due to the fact that there wasn't much holy energy left in his body, as he had practically released all of his energy outwards earlier.
The moment the barrier around Su Xiao was about to break under the immense pressure, he used the Dragon Shadow and teleported behind Joseph.
Joseph was seriously injured due to this attack, and most importantly, right now, his entire body wasn't responding to his orders.
Right now, he couldn't move a finger.
The thread popped out of Su Xiao's left hand and wrapped around Joseph's neck.
Since normal attacks didn't really work well against this guy, it was pointless to try to kill him with another simple attack.
*W-w-w-w~*
The boots on Su Xiao's feet were covered in fiery red lines.
The energy in these boots was in motion.
[
Kinetic energy activation (Active). After activating this skill, the stored energy inside the boots will start moving, which will increase the attack speed of the feet by 15% and the attack power of the feet by 27%, while kicking will have a "crushing" effect.
At the same time, the Tree Spirit clung to his boots and shifted into an attacking form.
Su Xiao shifted his center of gravity to his right leg and bent slightly. Lifting himself up on his left leg, he redirected all his strength to his waist and immediately kicked Joseph's side with his right foot.
All the power that was stored in his waist, at the moment of impact, was poured into his right foot.
*F-f-f...*
Steam shot out of his boot and enveloped his leg.
The foot hit Joseph squarely in the side. A clear sound of bones breaking echoed through the residence and blood splattered on the floor.
*BOOM!*
With a groan, Joseph flew straight into the wall..
After knocking Joseph away with this punch, Su Xiao stabbed the Dragon Flash into the floor and grasped its handle with his right hand, while with his left, he began to pull the barely noticeable thread towards him.
With a crash, dust and splinters began to fly in all directions. Su Xiao's body was trying to be moved by a powerful pulling force, but it soon disappeared when the human head was finally cut off from the body by a barely visible thread.
*Boom-boom-boom...*
The headless corpse broke through several walls of the residence and finally flew out.
In battle, not only the dry characteristics of a person were important, but also their skills, combat experience, literacy, terrain, weapons, enemy analysis, and so on.
If Joseph Ke was the king of group battles, Su Xiao was the king of one-on-one battles.
Joseph didn't stand a chance of winning such a fight.
