Mystery: When the Fool Meets the Masked Fool

Chapter 52: Sekiro, Shadow Dies, Dies, Dies Twice (23)

Klein once again used the paper man substitute to dodge the attack of the virtual soldier.

No buddy, why do you want to fight in close combat at the beginning when you have a laser cannon?

The paper mannequin's inherent displacement ability carried Klein high into the sky. With a flick of his left hand, several napkins swooped down from the air like flying knives.

He discovered a phenomenon that seemed to be a special mechanism. As long as there were flying objects, the virtual soldiers would attack them first.

He deliberately controlled two of the napkins to attack it from both sides simultaneously. Taking advantage of the weakness, he swung his sword with both hands, leaving the goal wide open, and Klein fired again.

The bullet hit Xu Zu's chest without causing any damage.

"Fuck, this is impossible to beat."

After landing on the ground, Klein tried to use his magician's ability to control fire, and several flames spewed out from around the virtual soldier.

Klein flashed back and forth in the flames, accompanied by a flying napkin knife. Each napkin attracted the Xu Zu's attention, and Klein took the opportunity to approach.

Almost sticking to the pawn, Klein fired another shot at the gap in the mask.

The pawn lowered its head to avoid Klein's shot.

It dodged? That's not right? Your code shouldn't be able to dodge, right?

Klein, who thought he had found a loophole, fiercely took the knee strike that followed from the pawn.

The abdomen was attacked and the shield in front of him was completely shattered.

Klein tried to escape by leaping through the flames, but at some point the flames around him turned indigo. He found himself unable to move from the flames.

The blade of the Xuzuo slashed across Klein's windbreaker, tearing his pocket without causing any harm to Klein, and the paper figures in the pocket fluttered to the ground.

Klein's pupils suddenly constricted. He had made a mistake. Although the opponent looked like a combat NPC in the game, it could actually think and find his flaws.

Without giving him more time to think, Klein fell to the side as if his footing had slipped, then suddenly lunged to the side and back, barely avoiding the subsequent silky combo.

With one hand supporting the ground, Klein used a movement similar to the Thomas spin to prop up his body upside down, and whipped his kick into the empty soldier's head, which was sticking out due to inertia.

This kick triggered the critical hit effect of the blessing, and the explosion spread from the foot, causing the virtual soldier to stagger to the side.

Klein took advantage of the victory and immediately raised his gun and shot without giving him time to adjust his body.

The six-position cartridge in his revolver wasn't loaded with a bullet, but a purple bead. This was given to him by Serris during the day, saying he might need it that night.

He gave Klein about ten of these purple beads and a blue bullet, and told him how to use them. When Klein first received them, he was stunned, unable to imagine that something with such destructive power could actually exist.

Fortunately, this is a dream, otherwise Klein would definitely not use this precious artifact.

He is a good man who is thrifty and manages his household well.

This ball of electricity is created by capturing lightning. If a conductor disrupts its balance, it will immediately release ball lightning.

As a thunderous roar rang out, though it was just thunder, purple lightning exploded from the pistol, enveloping both Klein and the Void Soldier.

Swish.

"Is it so powerful?" This was Klein's last thought before his consciousness faded.

The next second, Klein found himself aiming his gun at the motionless pawn standing before him. He glanced confusedly at the pistol in his hand, which should have exploded, and seemed to understand something.

"Is this... a save file?" He opened the pistol's revolver, revealing five bullets. All but one were missing, except for the one that initially attacked the Aha puppet. "What is this? Sekiro, Shadows Die Twice?"

[Obtaining the "Primordial Black Hole" will slightly increase your strength with each "Destruction" blessing you receive.]
Huh? Klein looked at the pop-up window and fell into a brainstorm.

So every time you get defeated you get this so-called blessing. It's like playing a game.

Klein thought for a moment and fired a shot.

Swish.

Successfully returned to the original state.

[Players please do not maliciously send blessings.]
Player? Fine, fine, I won't even act anymore.

Klein put down his pistol, feeling as if his mind was wandering. He walked over to the Xuzu and observed him closely. He felt as if he saw many details he hadn't noticed before.

The light blades on both of its hands were particularly impressive. Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that they were truly stunning weapons. The light blades shone with tiny sparkles, and it was unknown what they were made of.

Knowing he could reload the save, Klein grew bolder. He leaned in to examine the details of the Xuzu's equipment, trying to find any flaws.

“This…” Klein was about to say something.

Swish.

Klein was back to square one.

What's going on? Is his voice too sharp? Why did it trigger the counterattack directly?
Klein quietly took a step back. He planned to wait for the buff of "Emperor Star Sovereign Arrives at the Dome of the Sky" to accumulate over time.

…………

In front of a translucent screen floating in the air, Serris looked at Klein, who had repeated the challenge more than a dozen times, and curled his lips helplessly.

You are such a badass, the rest of the story will be difficult to handle.

After thinking for a moment, Ceris tapped the screen a few times, intending to give Klein a little help.

PS: There is another chapter in the evening. I have an exam today, so it’s a bit late.

Monthly ticket, monthly ticket.
