Chapter 137 Cause and Effect (4000)

Let me ask you, if a person is about to face a missile or missile bombing, then...what should he do?

At least, from the perspective of conventional response, you should definitely find a sufficiently reliable shelter first.

Afterwards, they hid in the safe bunker, crouching with their heads in their hands and curling up their bodies to deal with the bombing, reducing the damage caused by the explosion and shock wave.

Of course, if this missile happens to be aimed at something nearby, then...

The most important thing to do is to quickly move away from this dangerous area.

And now, facing the missiles fired from the Iron Armor, this 'Kinoshita Hirojuro' did the same...

……

Just before Liu Ke was about to launch the "Jericho Missile", the Japanese man who was lying on the ground suddenly stood up directly with his body twisted, like a devil returning from hell, ignoring the multiple injuries to his flesh and bones.

In just a blink of an eye, its body swelled up and a large amount of granulation tissue shot out in all directions.

Then, he used the flesh granulation as a hook, using it to pull his body to move at an extremely fast speed, mysteriously turning at a large angle and escaping the tracking and aiming of the micro missile.

boom!
Putting the facts aside, at least... judging from the effect, the effect of the 'Micro Jericho' missile fired by the Iron Armor is still strong.

Even though this missile had been specially treated to be "lightweight", it still blasted a high, rolling wave of fire where the Japanese had been lying, and tore out a small mushroom cloud.

Unfortunately... the only shortcoming of this "missile" attack is also obvious, that is, it did not hit the target.

……

"Master, the opponent is small in size and extremely fast in maneuverability. I suggest you use a more efficient attack method first."

Hearing the black wall's prompt, Liu Ke in the armor frowned and said, "Well, I know what you mean..."

Then, he looked at the Japanese figure who was still circling and fleeing in the mountains and forests, and immediately chose to control the armor to climb into the air, and started an "air chase" for him, firing palm cannons at him non-stop.

Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!
The Iron Armor fired several palm cannons as he raised his hand, but after six or seven shots, he only hit three or four times even though the opponent was trying hard to dodge.

But it must be said that although the hit rate was slightly poor, Liu was "lucky" enough to hit some key parts.

Seeing that the Japanese who was moving quickly through the woods suddenly staggered and hunched over, Liu Ke simply raised his hands again and prepared to fire a powerful palm cannon.

But just as Liu Ke slowed down slightly and was about to fire the palm cannon in a more stable manner...

The Japanese man seemed to have suddenly heard the 'starting gun'. He suddenly jumped up and started running. There was no sign of injury on his body.

Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!
Liu Ke fired several palm cannons this round, but not a single one hit the target.

Although the opponent's 'sudden start' affected the aiming accuracy, the first shot missing the target was excusable.

But except for the first shot, all of Liu Ke's palm cannon shots were calibrated with the help of the black wall's 'moving target'. Normally speaking, it shouldn't be so outrageous that he didn't hit the target at all.

This made Liu Ke suddenly feel a little strange, especially...

Especially when the opponent was dodging the last few palm cannons, his body twisted and turned like a mollusk, giving off a sense of "ease", as if he had completely adapted to this frequency of attack.

Liu Keshen in the armor exhaled, raised his eyebrows, then stretched out his hand again and tried to shoot five or six palm cannons.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
As he expected, all the palm cannon attacks were dodged by the opponent at a very close distance.

Not only that, since he failed to cause effective "damage", his opponent's steps no longer stumbled when he was not hindered. Instead, he began to "optimize" his route, circling left and right alternately, and using trees and rocks to hide his body.

At the same time, sprout-like tentacles began to emerge from the Japanese man's body and pierced the surrounding thick trees.

The pierced trees dried up and broke in just a few breaths, as if all their vitality had been drained away.

"Master, the other party is absorbing the energy of those plants and recovering quickly."

"Yes, I saw it. Things like this that can be seen with the naked eye... don't need to be reported."

……

The current situation can be said to be a bit awkward. After being pushed here by the iron armor, the Japanese seemed to have lost their will to fight in the bombardment. They had no desire to fight back and only fled blindly.

Moreover, his speed of dodging in the mountains and forests was abnormally fast. He used his ever-growing flesh granulations as a "three-dimensional maneuvering device". His escape route was treacherous and unpredictable, and the direct aiming effect of the "missile" was not good.

As for Liu Ke's other powerful weapon, the [Palm Cannon], it also encountered the same dilemma.

Even with the biological version of the 'Three-Dimensional Maneuvering Gear', Kinoshita couldn't rely on speed to dodge the ray-type attack of the [Palm Cannon], but...

The opponent seemed to have adapted to the palm cannon attack mode of the iron armor, and was always able to dodge the extremely fast attack with very subtle distance and movements.

So, after Liu Ke tried to use another round of palm cannon bombardment, he discovered...

The previous kind of attack where you just raised your hand and shot with the help of assisted aiming is probably no longer possible to hit the target, and you need to add a bit of 'prediction'.

"Blackwall, come on, build a model. I want to see who can adapt faster, or who can grasp it faster."

……

Bang!
boom! boom!
Bang!Bang!
After Liu Ke equipped himself with the genuine "Technology Crosshairs", the hit rate of his palm cannons, shoulder projectiles and other attack methods did increase a lot. After a fierce bombardment, he once again pierced the skin and flesh of "Kinoshita".

But, correspondingly, as if in a tit-for-tat [evolution], the opponent also took out some bizarre means to deal with the attacks that kept bombarding him!
Bang!
As the Mark VI armor fired another palm cannon, the opponent reversed its previous behavior of "rushing left and right" and stopped dodging. Instead, it ran straight down the mountain.

And what happened next was also the reason why Liu Ke felt it was strange...even weird.

Just as the palm cannon was about to hit Kinoshita's back, the back of this "Japanese" man suddenly deformed.

A dark crack suddenly appeared vertically in the spine, and the muscle tissue and bones on both sides rolled and separated like a living thing torn by an invisible hand, gouging out a through cavity in the center of the torso.

The palm cannon fired from the iron armor passed through this strange crack in the flesh and failed to hit a single piece of flesh.

Bang!
When the palm cannon 'penetrated' the ground, the 'flesh crack' on the back of 'Kinoshita' was gradually stitched together like a 'zipper'.

In the end, only the blue veins in the skin of the back, which were constantly wriggling like a living thing, remained, indicating that the strange scene just now was not an illusion.

"This works?" Liu Ke was quite shocked by the other party's response and couldn't help but mutter to himself inside his armor.

After just a moment's thought, Liu Ke gave up the idea of ​​using palm cannons, grenades, shoulder-fired projectiles and other weapons that focused on high accuracy to "achieve success".

After all, these methods, not to mention being unable to suppress the opponent's regeneration ability, even hitting them is a problem. In the end, they still have to use high-powered "missiles".

However, having said that, Liu Ke suddenly thought that methods like the palm cannon could still be used as auxiliary, for example... to force movement.

After saying that, Liu Ke temporarily slowed down his flying speed, raised his two arms, charged the energy in his left hand to release the palm cannon, and mounted another 'anti-tank missile' in his right hand.

Bang!
call out!
His palm cannon and anti-tank missile were fired almost at the same time, but the palm cannon arrived faster after all.

As a matter of course, the Japanese, who had "developed" the means to split their bodies on their own, dodged this attack that arrived first.

However, this method of splitting the body does not seem to be absolutely perfect, and it seems to have some impact on Kinoshita's own actions.

When facing the subsequent anti-tank missile bombardment, Kinoshita Hirojuro's movements were obviously much slower, and the speed of the flesh granulation was slower, making it seem a little...'unable to avoid'.

boom!
This missile no longer aimed at people, but chose to directly aim at the ground for a "range attack", shocking "Kinoshita" who had not escaped completely in time, causing his body to begin to wriggle abnormally, bleed, and collapse to the ground.

Although this posture is different from the posture of an ordinary person being injured and has no "reference value", just from the amount of blood spilled, it can be seen that the effect of this "missile" is outstanding.

Liu Ke took advantage of the opponent's attack and flew closer immediately. He raised his hands again and used the combination of [Palm Cannon] and [Missile] to force the opponent to move.

"I don't know what you're doing here, but..."

"Goodbye. I hope you'll be reborn as a Shudra in your next life. India welcomes you..."

……

Just as Liu Ke in the armor pursed his lips, ready to deliver a finishing blow to the difficult-to-deal-with 'biochemical stowaway' before him...

"Master, someone is approaching at high speed at your 2 o'clock position."

Hearing the black wall's prompt, Liu Ke turned his head immediately.

Then, he saw a stream of clear air floating down from the mountain. In the blink of an eye, it crossed a distance of a hundred meters and naturally landed near the Japanese man, transforming into a figure.

The figure had long beard and eyebrows and was dressed in a Taoist robe. Liu Ke, a contestant in the "Luotian Dajiao", recognized him immediately. The one who brought the pure energy was none other than the old Taoist priest Zhang Zhiwei.

After the old Taoist priest appeared, he just frowned and punched the Japanese man.

At the moment he made his move, the Japanese man who was lying on the ground stopped twisting in pain, and his spine suddenly broke out of his body like a long snake with self-awareness.

Snapped!
The spine, swinging like a python, whipped directly towards the old Taoist's fist.

Bang!
After the fists and spines collided, a loud bang was heard immediately, and the ground around the "Kinoshita Hirojuro" began to break and crack, and the spine that flew out of his body also broke into pieces.

"what!!!!!!"

The sound of the broken spine was accompanied by an extremely painful roar. This was also the first and only cry of pain that "Kinoshita Hirojuro" made today.

"Ok?"

In contrast, the old Taoist priest who had thrown that punch retracted his fist, looked around, and revealed a rather puzzled expression.

……

The old Taoist priest came suddenly, and his method of transforming into pure energy and running around was so amazing that Liu Ke, who was floating in the air wearing steel armor, was stunned.

It took him a while to react, and he subconsciously wanted to use the [Transformation] module again to disguise himself.

But as soon as his hand touched the reactor on his chest, he realized the problem...

"This old Taoist priest is obviously not blind, but rather has very good eyesight. I've been hanging here in my armor for quite some time, so I should have been noticed long ago. So what's the point of me transforming now? Is this like trying to cover up one's mistake?"

"Besides... the old Taoist priest is so old, he might not even have seen Iron Man and has no idea what this is..."

After thinking for a while, Liu Ke, who felt a little overwhelmed, found an excuse for himself and controlled the armor to land on the ground.

Seeing that the old Taoist priest also turned his head to look at this 'Iron Man', Liu Ke unconsciously wanted to clasp his fists and wave his hands, but when he thought that it was a bit weird for the iron armor to make such a movement, he stopped again.

Finally, he shrugged awkwardly and said hello dryly in the electronic voice of his battle armor: "Old Heavenly Master..."

But before he could finish what he had been thinking about for a long time, he was interrupted by the old Taoist priest with a smile.

The old Taoist priest took a few steps back and forth, then looked him up and down a few times before jokingly saying, "Mr. Liu Ke, why don't you pretend to be me?"

Liu Ke was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said, "You...know it's me?"

The old Taoist priest chuckled and said, "You transformed into my body right in front of my temple. It was hard for me not to see it."

Liu Ke rubbed his head awkwardly, unwilling to think about the troublesome issue of 'secrecy' any longer. He then changed the subject and asked, "Have you completed the transmission to... Zhang Chulan?"

The old Taoist priest slowly shook his head and said, "Chu Lan... that child can't calm down."

After saying that, the old Taoist pointed at Kinoshita Hirojuro, who was completely paralyzed in the pit, and said, "He's still alive, so let me take care of him."

Liu Ke raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He naturally knew that the Japanese was not dead, but he did not expect that the old master was so murderous.

Considering that he hadn't earned any [Cause and Effect Points] in a while, he still asked tentatively, "If you... take action, will it be a little..."

The old Taoist priest said bluntly: "It's okay. We Taoists are not Buddhists. We don't have so many requirements."

After saying this, the old Taoist priest turned his head and looked at the 'iron-clad man' beside him with deep meaning, and said, "He is nothing but a trap."

"Since you were pretending to be me..."

"Now that I'm shouldering this [cause and effect], it's actually a natural progression. Perfect, perfect..."
