Identity V, do you know what a double-bounce flywheel is?

The wax sculptor watched the antique dealer disappear from sight. Before the tram even departed, he had already moved on to the next station.

Neither humans nor hunters can outspeed neutral creatures, especially ground-based hunters.

Although he had brought the talisman, he didn't want to hand it over just like that.

But there's no other way now; he needs to take down the antique dealer quickly.

After rescuing the person, the first mate had already left the location of the tinnitus. No matter who he chased, there would be two people repairing the machine on the field, unless he could take down one of them at lightning speed.

He's now also pondering why survivors never attempt a second rescue.

He had only seen the antique dealer's flywheel, not the double-barreled weapon on the antique dealer.

This means that antique dealers have one talent left and two choices: a big heart or a desperate gamble.

However, he felt that the possibility of a desperate rescue was greater, because if the antique dealer had a strong heart, the survivors would definitely send a second player with a desperate rescue skill to rescue him once and twice.

At today's pace, as long as the Dragon Kingdom provides a second rescue, he can wait until all five machines are deciphered before he can get up with a big heart.

No matter how you look at it, this is a great trend.

The only possibility is that this wave of attacks has truly thwarted a desperate attempt by the Dragon Kingdom.

With that in mind, he waited quietly at the platform.

Even though he had already set off early and was looking at the car lights in the distance, he still didn't notice the tinnitus.

In that instant, he knew he had been deceived.

He also remembered something: during the life-or-death timer, many things couldn't be interacted with.

He panicked when he saw the antique dealer disappear behind the car.

Unexpectedly, the other party simply disappeared at the front of the car and did not actually get in.

Looking at the teleportation device behind him, he teleported back once again.

When he returned, he saw a series of footprints in front of him that were about to disappear, disappearing where the tram had left.

Zhongli saw the teleportation device disappear, and the wax sculptor reappear behind him.

He immediately laughed; this scene would definitely make everyone burst out laughing.

Making this mistake in a crucial game of the Abyss.

But how could anyone know that it is precisely at times like these that such mistakes are most likely to be made, just like how some people always forget to write their names during the college entrance examination?

There's nothing to it but nervousness.

He could already predict the wax sculptor's movements. Before he arrived, the other party was moving very fast and would definitely catch up quickly.

At this point, he would definitely choose to spray wax first.

The only thing I could do was to hit the wax sculptor with a stick when the wax meter was almost full.

He could already predict that at most three blows, at least two, would completely cover him with wax, turning him into a wax figure.

But it's all worth it, because the time it takes to stop the fighting is much longer than the time it takes to become a wax figure, and after the wax is removed, you can continue to move on to other points.

Of course, if the wax artist sprays the wax on him high enough, he can first stop the wax with a stick, and then wait for the wax to solidify before adding two more sticks to change the position.

The antique dealer's stick consumes 17% of its durability with each strike. In theory, it can only make five full strikes, but the last strike, even with only 1% remaining, can still be made.

Therefore, antique dealers can use the transformation skill to consume the last bit of durability, and then deliver the most cost-effective blow.

That's what he thought, and that's what the wax sculptor thought too.

He looked at the antique dealer in front of him and instead of choosing to have it waxed.

Instead, they chose to follow along on foot.

Seeing his expression, Zhongli frowned.

Directly activate the rotary acceleration and turn towards the board area next to the station.

The wax sculptor remained silent. He hadn't yet reached the second level, so he couldn't spray hot wax all over the antique dealer who was directly wielding a knife.

The low walls are a disadvantage for antique dealers, making it difficult for them to dodge wax. Because in the map of Eternal Sleep Town, in the low wall area, antique dealers can easily use a Cloud Gate to jump over when their wax is almost full, then deliver a blow with a stick, using Stop Spear to buy time for their wax to solidify.

One blow isn't enough; you can even add two.

It can be said that the initiative in making one's own wax has always been in the hands of antique dealers.

But he couldn't avoid spraying wax, nor could he try to handle the knife at close range.

What he can do now is to spray 25%-50% first, then force three blows, continue spraying wax during the cessation of fighting, and wait until it is fully sprayed before taking the knife.

Only in this way can we exhaust all three of the antique dealer's skills and force him to generate wax armor on his own. If he doesn't hand over the sticks, then we can use our movement to get close enough to grab the knife.

He actually hoped it would be the latter.

Holding a knife at close range means he can save a lot of wax. If the antique dealer chooses the former option, he can only use skills to spray wax during the ceasefire.

Moreover, the surrounding areas have not been consumed. If you just follow the ground, the antique dealers will blindly cover the areas with boards, which will only delay the process further.

With this in mind, he had already determined his strategy for the subsequent pursuit.

At this point, the audience was still a little confused, because they saw that after the wax artist sprayed 30% of the wax, he stopped spraying and instead walked behind him.

'Why don't you keep spraying? This place can definitely be filled to the brim!'

"That's why you can't participate in the Abyss competition. If you have enough wax points, it gives the antique dealers another chance to keep things under control."

'All I saw was a frantic game of strategy between the two sides!'

'Sometimes I wonder, was the antique dealer's initial use of the rotary puller, followed by his rescue and re-entry into the vehicle, a deliberate scheme?'

'How to say? '

'Because Long Guoming knew he only brought one desperate fighter, and the antique dealer knew he would only be saved once, they still didn't use the stick except for a spinning move.'

'That seems true. In the early stages, you could proactively use your staff to apply wax to yourself, then use the "Stop the Spear" skill to break through the wax armor and buy time.'

"But even if we use these methods in the early stages, I feel it won't add much extra time, because the terrain during Singles' Day allows wax artists to apply wax remotely."

"Yes, I feel like this whole thing was rehearsed beforehand. How to restrain them here, how long to use here, how long it will take before they can get in the car after the rescue."

……

Viewers quickly remarked that they still felt the earlier restraints were all foreshadowing the present.

The antique dealer hadn't even collapsed yet, and the two cipher machines' decoding speed hadn't slowed down at all.

Looking at the 30% wax content on his body, Zhong Li smiled.

He struck first with the stick, then ran towards the opposite board area, without immediately finishing off the remaining sticks.

The wax sculptor was dumbfounded by what he saw. He had thought that at this point, the antique dealer would definitely hit him three times with a stick to break the wax coating since he couldn't use his knife.

Zhongli chuckled, his heart rate quickening slightly.

Before the wax sculptor could react, he had already moved to the panel area opposite the tram tracks across the gate.

After quickly covering the two boards, he watched as the wax sculptor behind him slowly raised his wax gun and tried to spray wax.

However, he wasn't in a hurry; he kept his body pressed against the board, ready to flip over at any moment.

In this position, the wax sculptor can only stand on the board, besides spraying wax.

Even if he conjures a layer of wax on himself, he can only use the knife by stepping on a board; otherwise, the wax on his body can be removed.

If he steps on the board, he can then add another blow.

Regardless of whether the wax artist sprays wax or not, he will keep the wax level at a certain point and continue moving to the next easier-to-operate area.

He had already used this trick on Chen Ke many times.

Xiong Guo regarded Chen Ke as his rival, believing that sparring with Chen Ke would allow him to improve rapidly.

But aren't their own team members the same? (End of Chapter)
