Chapter 1352: I'll scratch you to death
Since the beginning of the fight, only three gunshot wounds have appeared on the Mask's body. All the other bullets were blocked by her armor.
«The Mask's mouth started opening and closing, but it still didn't make a sound.
The zone of silence created by the bullet hitting her head was working one hundred percent.
One of the Mask's legs was bent over and almost completely buried in the ground.
After checking her armor, she saw that it only had 17% charge left.
Two more shots will make her armor completely ineffective.
As soon as she realized this, her armor was immediately covered in red lines.
*Whew...*
Like an engine running at full power, the mask's aura abruptly increased, and the metal claws on its fingertips extended.
If before they looked like a cat's claws, now they were already the claws of a tigress.
With a loud crack, the ground beneath Mask's feet shattered, and she herself disappeared.
As she rushed forward, she immediately realized that she wasn't deaf, but was only in a special zone.
The mask went straight for Su Xiao. She located Su Xiao's location. They were about a hundred meters apart and there were nine walls separating them right now.
Su Xiao stood motionless on the spot.
Inserting a new magazine, he lifted the Annihilator.
*Whew*
The bullet went straight for Mask's head.
The mask turned its head and was able to dodge that bullet.
*Whew*
The second bullet hit the Mask's calf and eventually lodged in its bone.
Pausing for a moment, she quickly grouped up and charged towards her target.
*Whew*
A third bullet tore through her shoulder.
When it happened, she was about 7 meters away from Su Xiao.
The annihilator disappeared from Su Xiao's hands and a sword appeared in place of the gun.
*Ding!*
Sparks flew everywhere. The sharp blade stopped the Mask's metal claws without much trouble.
The Mask itself was now under the influence of "acceleration". Under this effect, her defense was reduced by 30%, but her strength, speed, and reaction speed were improved by 35% for 15 minutes.
When the metal claws rested on the sword blade, the Mask bent its left leg, tilted its body to the left, and swung its right foot towards Su Xiao's head.
The Mask's attack wasn't weak, and this attack also didn't allow Su Xiao to counterattack with a side kick.
Su Xiao didn't even look at the Mask's right leg. All this time, he was only looking at the head and torso of the Mask.
He completely relied on his intuition.
Bending his left arm, he formed a sharp energy shield around his elbow.
*Boom!*
Su Xiao's elbow hit the calf of the Mask. The energy shield easily pierced through her skin and meat.
Mask winced in pain and felt her right leg begin to go numb.
After parrying the blow, Su Xiao immediately reached out with his left hand and grabbed the calf of the Mask.
— Burn!
*Boom!*
The flames enveloped Su Xiao and the Mask.
*Click-click-click...*
The energy shield wrapped around the left half of Su Xiao's body and took part of the impact. When it turned completely red, it immediately shattered away from Su Xiao so that it wouldn't suffer any damage to itself.
Su Xiao and the Mask flew off in different directions at the same time.
Flying in the opposite direction from the Mask, Su Xiao swung his sword a few times.
Mask obviously didn't understand who her opponent was, so she folded her hands in front of her.
Blood spurted onto the ground. Her defense was already severely weakened, so the flashes of light easily penetrated her armor and bit into her bones.
— Meow!
A meow suddenly sounded from Su Xiao's side.
A ghost cat appeared out of nowhere right in front of Su Xiao's face and immediately started scratching at him.
Su Xiao stretched out his hands in front of him and pushed him away, but this cat managed to leave a few cuts on his face.
[
Notice: You were attacked by a Void Cat, Charisma check...
Seeing this notification, Su Xiao's heart skipped a beat. If he'd run a check on any other characteristic, he wouldn't have worried about the results at all, but now...
[
The check was failed, the opponent's charisma exceeds yours.
You have been affected by the "Void Cat Charm" effect. Willpower -10 points (invalid); Body Defense -20%; You can't use any active skills.
The skill's effect will last for 15 seconds.
Warning: Due to the extreme superiority of the opponent's charisma, this negative effect has been significantly enhanced.
Body protection has been reduced by 38%.
The skill's effect has been extended to 30 seconds.
The mask seemed to see the same thing he did.
For a moment, she was stunned, and then a smile appeared on her face.
— You're finished, " and with a chuckle, she rushed towards Su Xiao with a bright smile on her face.
----
After 30 seconds.
*Boom!*
The mask with cuts all over its body flew off and crashed into the wall.
— Ahem, ahem... Mask coughed up blood and covered her stomach with one hand to keep her intestines from spilling out onto the floor. — You've been bullying me all this time! Mask shouted and spat out some blood.
In the previous 30 seconds, she was surprised to find that her skill's negative effect didn't affect her opponent at all.
His attacks were both very dangerous and deadly, and they remained so.
In fact, apart from equipment skills, Su Xiao's only active ability was Qing Gang Yin energy. The fact that he couldn't use it for 30 seconds wasn't very good news, but it didn't really make him a completely useless fighter.
Blood dripped from Su Xiao's fingertips. Since he couldn't use Qing Gang Yin's energy, it meant that he couldn't create energy shields either. Since the Mask's skill also significantly reduced his defense, it still allowed her to deal serious damage to him.
Fortunately, Su Xiao's survivability was quite good, especially when you consider the various passive skills as well.
If the Mask's opponent was a mage or an ordinary contractor, she would definitely be able to eliminate him within these 30 seconds, but Su Xiao didn't rely on active skills at all.
— You've gone too far, I'm really mad at you, " the Mask said, standing up and glaring at Su Xiao with a fierce gaze.
— Meow!!!
A terrifyingly loud meow echoed through the surrounding area.
Shock waves began to radiate from the Mask's body.
*Ding-ding...*
All the windows within a 300-meter radius were shattered, and the meowing itself could be heard in at least half of the Sabaodi Archipelago.
The mask was obviously calling out for help, as it couldn't win the one-on-one battle.
Any other contractor who hears such a meow will immediately know that there were some strong contractors fighting here, and some of them will definitely come to watch this show.
Su Xiao covered his ears. Since the source of the scream was very close to him, it was quite easy to imagine how unpleasant it was.
Not far from him, Bubtny crouched down, covering his ears with his paws.
— Boo-oo-oo-oo~, " Bubtny howled, trying to drown out the meowing, but his attempt was futile.
If Bubtney could talk, he would definitely say: "I hate cats, especially those that meow very loudly».
After a few seconds, the cat's meowing subsided.
With a bang, the ceiling began to crumble, and the walls of the building that Su Xiao was in with the Mask were covered in cracks.
— I advise you to get out of here quickly, " the Mask said, and smiled as if she was very happy about it.
Su Xiao stared at her intently.
Seeing Su Xiao's fierce gaze, the smile on the Mask's face froze.
She... Really pissed off her opponent a lot.
