255 Its you yourself that is depriving yourself of your flexibility! (2/2)

Four hammers shattered as the four dark green goblins screamed in retreat.

Kevin endure the pain. His right arm had two bloody holes as though they had been pierced by a nail. Boiling blood began gushing out of his wounds.

Suddenly, Kevin’s pupils violently constricted. A sharp knife was already in front of his chest. The larger dark red goblin had rushed in front of him without him realizing.

The sharp knife was just inches away from his chest, and there was no chance for him to react in time, much less conjure a shield to block. He did not even have the time to use Psionic Hardening.

Kevin closed his eyes in fear.

“Bang!”

The pain he feared did not come. Instead, there was a large bang. When Kevin opened his eyes, he saw the dark red goblin’s head no longer sitting on its neck as it fell backwards.

Shi Xiaobai was standing beside him with a psionic sword.

Mozzie raised her psionic warhammer and charged at the four dark green goblins. A wok that was rudimentary in form smashed down, causing the four goblins to collapse with a cry. It was in stark contrast to the process of her slow killing of monsters from before.

“I…”

Kevin’s eyes turned disheartened. The pain on his arm could not match the pain he felt in his heart.

Shi Xiaobai reached out his right hand to cover Kevin’s wound. A magnolia beam of light bloomed as Holy Radiance’s power of light enveloped Kevin’s arm. The bloody hole that was gushing out fresh blood began to slowly heal.

Kevin felt a warmth from his wound as the pain alleviated. Instead, he felt a slight itch that came from the healing of a wound.

Shi Xiaobai said softly, “You are not good at fighting against a group.”

Kevin nodded subconsciously. The pain in his heart lessened.

Yes, he was not good at fighting against a group.

Shi Xiaobai had picked this up at a glance.

Could this be considered comforting him?

Shi Xiaobai said with a deadpan expression, “But you have quite a few other problems.”

Kevin gaped but did not refute. Instead he said with a wry smile, “Is there any way of redeeming myself?”

Shi Xiaobai nodded and said, “Of course, wouldn’t solving the problems do?”

Kevin could only smile wryly. Some of the problems was a result of him lacking in actual combat experience. This sort of problems could be slowly solved, but some problems were fated never to be solved. For example, the condition and limitation of his superpower, ‘Price of Might’, could not be avoided.

Kevin hesitated for a moment and was prepared to explain to Shi Xiaobai what his greatest problems were. He was now fully convinced of Shi Xiaobai’s prowess.

However, Shi Xiaobai said at that moment, “Your situation is completely opposite from Mozzie. You do not have much power in your body, but the actual amount of power you output is many times stronger. You should be using some method to increase your strength. However, when you use this power, you will come to a halt. After using your power, your body will stiffen for a short period of time. This must be the price you pay for increasing your strength.”

Kevin stared with widened eyes at him and said in disbelief, “How did you tell!?”

Shi Xiaobai looked at Kevin lightly. His expression seemed to say ‘just like that’.

Kevin said with a wry smile, “You are truly a monster…. What you said isn’t wrong at all. The method of increasing my strength is the effect of my superpower. And the superpower’s condition is to stop moving, and the limitation is the more augmented the strength, the longer the body will stiffen. Although this superpower has given me outstanding strength, it has deprived me of my flexibility… There is no solution to this problem!”

Shi Xiaobai shook his head and said in a speechless manner, “It’s you yourself that is depriving yourself of your flexibility!”
