Absolute Gate

Chapter 59 Am I Endless Summer?
The battlefield above was extremely brutal.

Luo Yi appeared on a hill, turned sideways, and slid down, his feet piercing through the snow.

Xia Heng appeared beside him in a flash, and the two of them reached the spot where the car crashed into the mountain in a few leaps.

Here, the melting ice and snow create trickling streams and wisps of vital energy.

Rocks crumble, melt, and even vitrify.

The surface was covered with a layer of dark substance, which was probably car wreckage.

"Huh? What? She's still alive?"

When Xia Heng arrived, he was shocked to see a person who looked like a charred corpse, with his chest heaving.

Crack! The charcoal breaks apart, revealing new skin and scales.

"This woman, she's still alive?"

Xia Heng looked surprised and suspicious. The mechanical arm behind him gathered lasers, ready to finish off Xia Heng immediately.

"Don't hurt my sister!" Jordan unleashed his full power, blocking the attack from the sky.

"laugh!"

His chest was scorched open by the laser, leaving a deep, charred wound, but his momentum remained undiminished, and he brought down his axe with explosive force.

"Ding!"

Xia Heng could only use his mechanical arm to block, and his body was immediately thrown back and rolled in the snow.

Of course, he wasn't seriously injured; he has a layer of metallic skin on his body.

But Jordan was too fast, his movements were like a shuttle, and with a series of sprints, he rushed to Xia Heng's side.

The axe heated to a white-hot level, unleashing a fierce aura, and slashed diagonally at Xia Heng's neck.

It was too fast; Xia Heng couldn't dodge it at all.

"clang!"

At the critical moment, Luo Yi appeared beside Xia Heng, his black arm blocking the axe.

"Bang!" Luo Yi turned the tables and delivered a lightning-fast punch to Jordan's chest, sending him flying backward.

The explosion in the air spread like a shockwave, and the snow and rocks beneath their feet were swept away like ocean waves, clearing a large expanse of clean white ground.

"Wow..."

Jordan fell to the ground and touched his sunken chest; his ribs were broken.

"So strong..." He had always believed that Xia Heng was the strongest among the four.

Unexpectedly, it turned out that the guy with the unfocused look in his eyes was the one.

No, now his eyes are no longer unfocused, and he is radiant and exudes a powerful aura.

Jordan slowly stood up and murmured, "You're that idiot, you're healed?"

He's very strange, his mind is twisted, how can he be cured? Does that group of four possess a calamity-inducing object that can purify the mind?
What's that thing stuck in this guy's neck again?

Luo Yi tucked the funnel behind his ear, his demeanor relaxed: "Because alcohol cures all diseases!"

Jordan's eyes narrowed; sure enough, that camping quartet also had some kind of supernatural entity.

Is it some kind of alcohol? That can purify all negative effects?
"Bang!" Jordan stumbled and rushed to Luo Yi's side, exchanging a palm strike with him.

Jordan immediately stumbled back several steps, his face grave, each step leaving a footprint on the frozen rock.

Luo Yi also groaned; although he wasn't knocked away, blood seeped from his mouth and nose.

He spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva: "Damn it... internal injuries..."

Seeing this, Jordan realized something was amiss, took a deep breath, and roared.

"Roar!"

He let out a thunderous roar, like a tiger's howl and a dragon's cry, with a surging wave of energy.

Furthermore, an invisible force, along with the sound waves, permeated and vibrated the eight extraordinary meridians.

"Pfft!" Xia Heng spat out blood, feeling dizzy and disoriented.

Luo Yi was the same, except that he only bled slightly from his mouth and nose.

While his mind was still reeling, Jordan's follow-up attack had already arrived.

With the power infused, the axe trembled and hummed; this strike was enough to cleave Luo Yi in two.

"clang!"

Luo Yi was unable to move, but at the last moment, he turned his entire head black and withstood the blow from the axe!
"what?"

Jordan's pupils contracted, and he immediately changed his move, slashing horizontally at Luo Yi's waist.

However, Luo Yi's waist hardened and turned black first, greatly enhancing his defense, and made a metallic clanging sound when it struck the axe blade.

Jordan, refusing to believe it, changed his angle and slashed again.

Neck, chest, back, genitals...

He swung his sword like the wind, dodging left and right with the force of thunder, his surrounding energy surging and his streaks of light flashing as he slashed fiercely.

In an instant, sand and stones flew everywhere, and Luo Yi's body was cut so hard that he was suspended in the air and bounced around.

"Clang clang clang clang!"

However, Luo Yi was always able to harden the affected area beforehand, making perfect predictions.

Although he cannot defend his entire body with Armament Haki, it is sufficient for certain areas, and he relies on Observation Haki for the rest.

"Hahahaha!" Luo Yi finally snapped out of his daze from the sonic attack and grinned.

His shirt was slashed to pieces, and it ripped open on the spot!

With a quick tear, his upper body was completely bare, revealing his strong muscles.

Once the skin-renewing effect wore off, his true appearance was revealed.

"Wow, it's so hard..." Jordan exclaimed in astonishment.

However, Luo Yi was also in bad shape; he was bleeding from all seven orifices! He had suffered countless internal injuries!

"call out!"

Seeing that his internal energy was working, Jordan wanted to fight again, but at the same time, Xia Heng shot a laser beam at his face!
"Zizzizi!"

Even with his protective aura, a groove appeared on his forehead, and he immediately leaped through the air to dodge, ceasing his attack and retreating to Long Kui's side.

Looking at Longkui again, she had already gotten up, her body was badly injured, her internal organs were turned into mud, her flesh was a mess, and her skin was charred.

However, she was slowly recovering. Not only that, but instead of sitting and resting properly, she was groping around in the deep pit, trying to find something.

"Sister Silver Ring, the camping quartet is here to take advantage of our misfortune, let's go!" Jordan and Charlotte faced off, urging each other anxiously.

But Longkui didn't leave. She gasped for breath and said hoarsely, "Where's my pen? Where's my pen?"

Luo Yi and Xia Heng, no one knows where the pen went.

They had just searched the pit entrance but hadn't found the pen.

Could it be that the monstrous object that altered the quality can be destroyed just like an ordinary pen?
This is actually normal; some monstrous objects can indeed be destroyed.

However, destruction may have other effects, such as randomly respawning in other places, appearing in a different form, or truly disappearing completely, but leaving behind some cost effects.

In short, anything is possible, and it's hard to say.

"Still looking for a pen? He must have died a gruesome death along with that hyacinth."

"He wanted to die with you, but unfortunately, he was just a little short of it."

Luo Yi shook his head and wiped the blood from his face.

“No… that pen wasn’t so easily destroyed, I kicked it…” Longkui murmured, bravely climbing out of the deep pit.

The woman's face was covered in blood and flesh, so deep that the bone was visible. Half of her face was disfigured, and the other half was covered in scales.

Her physical body was no longer capable of fighting; her mere existence was a matter of clinging to life.

However, her aura remained fierce. Despite her shattered lumbar vertebrae and paralysis of the lower body, she actually used her freezing energy to create ice crystal armor to support herself.

Dragon's eyes swept across the room, then suddenly fixed on a bearded man with a disemboweled belly leaning against a rock not far away.

Xia Heng frowned slightly, not expecting this woman to have fighting power, and immediately pulled back to create some distance.

Despite suffering extremely painful injuries, her magical power remained undiminished.

But Luo Yi wasn't afraid. He continued to swagger forward, his black fists exploding as he struck the air.

"clang!"

Jordan quickly stepped in front to block, and struck Lowe again. Jordan flew backward and fell into the pit, while Lowe, although he did not take a step back, was burning inside, with blood constantly spilling from the corner of his mouth.

Longkui roared, "Are you guys really trying to take advantage of the chaos? That guy isn't dead yet!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Heng and Luo Yi were both startled, but their senses were quite sharp, and they didn't detect the presence of any other living people.

"What nonsense are you talking about? His body is a pile of ashes."

Longkui gasped, “I can smell it… his soul reeks of money.”

"soul?"

Luo Yi tilted his head: "He still has a soul? Really?"

Longkui exclaimed excitedly, "I can smell it! He has a soul... He's not dead!"

Xia Heng rolled his eyes: "That's complete nonsense. It's common knowledge that Earthlings don't have souls."

"Ignore her, she's just stalling for time."

Long Kui said coldly, "You can't sense it, but I can! His soul is inside this bearded man's body!"

As he spoke, a sharp icy spike shot out.

This strike was swift and ruthless, aimed directly at the bearded man.

Even though an enemy like Luo Yixia Heng was right in front of them, they prioritized killing the bearded man.

On the one hand, she believed that Luo Yi and his group were merely taking advantage of the situation, and that there was still room for negotiation. She really didn't want to create unnecessary trouble and provoke another powerful enemy.

On the other hand, she deeply resented Elo and his gang, who almost killed her.

"No..." The bearded man's eyes were bloodshot; he hadn't expected Long Kui to want him dead.

"clang!"

At the critical moment, Luo Yi moved sideways, shattering the ice spikes in mid-air and protecting the bearded man behind him.

"You... instead of hiding underground like rats, you dare to meddle in other people's business?"

Longkui was really angry; she felt she had already given in.

But judging from their expressions, they were determined to oppose her.

"You're taking advantage of my misfortune at this time, letting others reap the benefits! I'm not your target!"

"Who said that during a mission, you shouldn't cause any trouble beyond the objective? That's the way to survive!"

Longkui used Xia Heng's words to remind the other party.

Xia Heng said calmly, "Is it possible that you are our mission target?"

Longkui's eyes widened: "How is that possible!"

Upon hearing this, the bearded man realized that these two were the camping quartet.

Moreover, he recognized Luo Yi's voice; wasn't that Blackberry?
He covered Blackberry's evacuation in exchange for money.

Unexpectedly, Blackberry recovered from her injuries and came back to save him, which naturally moved him deeply.

"Thank you so much, my benefactor, for saving my life! Kill her now!"

The bearded man called out "Dad" without hesitation. At this moment, whoever saves him is his father, especially since this is the client.

"Investor?"

Upon hearing this, Longkui's pupils dilated in shock: "You're Blackberry? You said it was true that you were attacked by ghosts and gods, and you're actually a member of the group of four?"

Longkui was suddenly a little confused.

Luo Yi spat out a mouthful of blood: "It's the real deal, my bounty is still on the platform."

"Impossible! You're telling me the Demon Master had demons attack him to put on a show and trick you? That's pure nonsense!" Longkui exclaimed excitedly.

Luo Yi said playfully, "Stop pretending, Endless Summer."

"Isn't it you who attacked me? I put up a bounty, and you actually hired a guy named Longkui to take my mission and then impersonate her."

"This disguise is really clever. Is it a skin transplant?"

"I never expected you to pull this 'black mercenary' trick, having the person being hunted accept the bounty yourself to extract information from me."

"Unfortunately, when I asked you about your features, you shouldn't have mentioned that you have tattoos. As far as I know, Longkui doesn't have any tattoos! Even if she does, it's a magical disguise."

"So I saw through you a long time ago, and all the information I told you was just nonsense."

Upon hearing this, Longkui froze, her head buzzing: Huh? What? I'm Wujinxia?
