918 Too much is as bad as not enough (1/2)
”Sensitivity increasing drug?”
Su Hao thought of a possibility.
He used to be a pharmacist. Although his level of expertise wasn't that high, that didn't hinder him from having the knowledge of pharmacy. Sensitivity increasing drugs was one of the ten unique drugs in pharmaceuticals. In order to alleviate the pain caused by the black market strengthening drug, he and Zhang Zhongtian had both used a sensitivity dulling drug before.
These drugs were quite special, and ordinary people won't even consider them.
That ascetic monk.
The standard of measuring his talent was based on the degree of pain he feels. In other words, it didn't matter how much Su Hao had to pay for the energy. The pain suffered by the esper was the most important one! If Su Hao's power was extremely terrifying and yet the monk wasn't harmed, his talent wouldn't work.
However, if there is a sensitive drug involved...
One single blow would generate unimaginable pain, and then this ascetic monk would be able to produce terrifying strength!
”No wonder he became this powerful.”
Su Hao came to an understanding.
This ascetic monk's talent was really heaven-defying. However, Su Hao didn't rejoice even for one bit. As the monk had explained clearly, the strength he gained would be equivalent to the amount of suffering he endured.
Su Hao would never think that it was that easy to endure.
A physical collision itself was harsh to begin with. If you add in a sensitivity increasing drug... Based on Su Hao's judgement, the amount of sensitive drug taken by this monk was definitely not in a small dosage.
”This is a true lunatic!”
Su Hao was in great shock.
Even when he felt that his perseverance was amazing, he did not dare bear such pain. Not to mention, this monk's face didn't change at all while under the influence of the sensitivity increasing drug. Obviously, he had long become used to such pain. Such a terrible opponent was definitely a headache for everyone.
Boom!
The monk charged toward Su Hao once again.
The incoming momentum was astonishing!
Being attacked by a force that exceeded himself by a dozen times, that wasn't a great experience. Even if Su Hao's hidden strength were to erupt entirely, in front of this monk, he would only get beaten. The powerful force comparable to a level three world esper was definitely not something that Su Hao could contend with.
”Keep persevering, and everything should be fine.”
Su Hao gritted his teeth.
This talent was too overpowered!
Su Hao believed that the monk's power had a time limit and that he would be fine as long as Su Hao was able to last till the end of the monk's sudden boost of strength. However, the monk didn't give such a chance to Su Hao. The attacks coming from his fists became more and more intense. Occasionally, the counters from Su Hao were all endured by the monk.
He didn't resist at all!
As long as it wasn't a one-shot kill, he wouldn't die. The confrontation against Su Hao would only make him stronger after suffering more injuries!
This is the terrifying point of Ascetic Monk.
As long as he began, there was nothing to stop him. His attacks became more and more ruthless. He completely ignored Su Hao's attacks, yet his combat strength increased significantly! Su Hao had no chance to retaliate.
If he didn't take action, the monk would be more ferocious.
If he made a move.... the monk won't resist at all but borrow Su Hao's power to accumulate the damage to increase his power instead. His face was still as plain and cold as ever.
”Is this a human?”
Su Hao cursed in his heart.
This monk was too calm! Scraping bones to heal was a toy to him! No matter how much pain he endured, the monk's face didn't even show any signs of change. It was as if the one being injured wasn't him.
Religious people are all maniacs!
Su Hao didn't accidentally put a label on the monk. However, in any case, the current situation was that he was on the losing end, and he could only retreat with each step! Retreat! And retreat again!
”Pftt-”
Su Hao was sent flying.
Blood splattered all over the place.
Su Hao pitifully landed on the ground from the air. It had been such a long time since he suffered such a serious injury. However, the monk in front of him stood still. Origin avatar was ineffective! Each origin technique was useless! In fact, even the godlike state that Su Hao always relied on was not effective against him.
This was simply a hedgehog!
”No wonder he's so arrogant.” Su Hao said hatefully.
So what if he's strong? The opponent simply attacked while ignoring his attacks! Instead, all of Su Hao's attacks became the source of energy in front of this opponent.
Rule Force derived from a grade S talent was simply too horrifying!
Is this the essence of Rule Force?
Su Hao clenched his fists; he needed to find a solution! Otherwise, there might not even be a chance to escape. Instead, he would be beaten to death by this guy. No matter how fast he is, in front of this monk, who is a dozen times stronger, there was simply not much hope at all. He must think of an alternative.
Rule Force derived from grade S talent is really this strong?
Su Hao didn't believe it.
Grade S talents are indeed strong, and even could allow one to fight on par against higher levels within the world realm. However, Su Hao believed that going from level one to level three world realm and even approaching World Force was simply too much. Based on Su Hao's knowledge of grade S talents, once there is such a strong talent...
It must have its shortcomings.
What are the shortcomings of Ascetic Monk then?
Su Hao's eyes flashed coldly.
Boom!
Golden light flashed.
”Phantom Sprint!”
Su Hao regained his composure. Using his origin avatar to escape an attack from the monk, he retreated farther and farther away from the monk while the monk chased him decisively. In fact, the monk's speed exceeded his by many times! This was the benefit brought from the sudden boost, an all-round improvement.
Buzz~
Red and blue light flashed.
