Chapter 78: Controlled (1/2)
Chapter 78: Controlled
The woman was almost always on the offensive and rarely blocked. Her attacking motion was extremely quick, and it looked well-practiced. Liu Gan was struggling to handle the mixture of real and feint blows together. Moreover, she didn’t even look particularly tired. Even if Liu Gan struck with his short axe repeatedly, she didn’t have any injuries. Also, even after Liu Gan sent her flying with a kick or throw, she immediately got up from the ground to continue fighting.
A few minutes later, Liu Gan was dripping with sweat under these kinds of concentrated attacks and couldn’t support himself any longer. The woman’s sleeve blades struck his body many times, and fortunately, his ‘Mist Armor’ protected him from any critical injuries.
If they were to continue fighting like this, she would eventually break open his ‘Mist Armor.’ At that time, Liu Gan would worry for his life. This woman’s reinforced muscles and steel bones made her completely unafraid of dying and contained no weaknesses to exploit.
Liu Gan was beaten to an even sorrier state, and he even considered retreating to the warehouse room above the ladder. However, the woman had already long before anticipated Liu Gan’s intent. In advance, she had climbed like a monkey to the top of the ladder and forcibly pressured Liu Gan back down to the underground cavern while brandishing her double-edged blades.
“Pretty lady, can we sit down and have a nice chat? Can you not be so aggressive and bloodthirsty? It isn’t ladylike!” Liu Gan had no other choice but to run in circles around the magnetic energy array in the underground cavern.
The woman did not respond to Liu Gan’s words but was blindly in pursuit of killing him. She did not stop even for a moment. Liu Gan used an extremely difficult parkour movement to move all over the place. However, she could also keep up and pursue closely behind him. He was simply incapable of breaking free.
“Did I provoke you somehow? Are you crazy? Why are you trying to kill me nonstop?” Liu Gan began cursing up a storm.
“Didn’t you want to tie me up or dislocate my joints?” The woman finally said a few words in response to Liu Gan.
“#$…” Liu Gan was at a loss for words. He had indeed said these things, but the woman appeared to be in hibernation mode. He had prepared to do these things in order to guard against the unexpected, but he didn’t expect her to hear him.
This woman wasn’t joking around. She continued to attack murderously, and her movements became even more severe.
Liu Gan looked left and right for an opportunity to escape and rushed toward the wall where he left his backpack. He reached out with his hand to search his backpack for the handle of the sledgehammer. When the woman once again closed in on him to less than two meters, he suddenly smashed the woman’s body with a spinning hammer attack repeatedly.
The woman was sent flying from the hammer smash, and she hit the wall more than ten meters away before falling down. For the first time after falling to the ground, she felt dizzy. She staggered for a few steps after getting up before she could steady her body. Afterwards she immediately dashed quickly heading towards Liu Gan’s direction.
“Apparently, she isn’t without weak points! You dare attack; I’ll hammer you again! I’ll see if I can hammer you to death!” Immediately, Liu Gan confidently and tightly held the sledgehammer with both hands.
Jiang JinYuan didn’t know when he had fallen from the platform onto the ground floor. He rushed forward scrambling in front of Liu Gan, and a gun was in his hands. Just as the woman rushed closer to him a few meters from outside, he suddenly pulled the trigger. A brilliant flash of blue light appeared as the woman’s body produced a burst of sound like an electrical current, and she appeared to have been hit by a normal bullet. Her momentum carried her forward a few steps, and she fell powerlessly in front of Liu Gan and Jiang JinYuan.
“An electromagnetic gun. I just found it inside a workstation. The specific frequency of the attack is extremely effective against an uncontrolled biochemical robot.” Jiang JinYuan explained to Liu Gan, and afterwards he walked over with his PDA crouching beside the woman.
[TL: WOW, Jiang JinYuan saved Liu Gan?]
