Lee Sin's Bizarre Adventure

Chapter 269

Li Qing undoubtedly grasped the initiative on the battlefield.

Meloni has basically lost the will to fight in a series of setbacks.

And Risut also didn't dare to act rashly, he put on that cold face that made people unable to see his emotions in silence, and kept observing the surrounding environment with a pair of solemn eyes.

This kind of behavior seems to be thinking calmly, but it is also like a desperate person looking for straws in despair.

And Li Qing didn't intend to give the enemy any more time to "find straws".

He suddenly tightened his muscles and clenched his fists, ready to launch a second, more rapid attack on Risut and Meloni.

This time, Li Qing didn't think about picking up the soft persimmon like Meloni again.

Because Risut has just demonstrated the stand-in ability of "casting iron out of thin air" and "stabbing a joint with a knife"—

Although this kind of ability can't cause any substantial damage, it can effectively hinder his movements and thwart his attacks.

Li Qing didn't want to throw himself on his back because of the "iron growth" in his knee when he was beating someone.

"Although I can heal as long as I reach out and pull out the blade, this small injury basically has no effect on me."

"But if I continue to lengthen and pull the blade repeatedly like this, I will definitely have a very headache."

"In this way, the melee combat that I am best at is somewhat inapplicable."

Li Qing seems to be talking to himself, but also seems to be threatening the enemy with such a calm tone:

"But, if I'm not mistaken—"

"I'm afraid the scope of influence of your stand-in ability will be very limited?"

"After all, I was chasing behind your car for about 20 meters before, but your response was to step on the gas pedal to accelerate, instead of using this 'pigment iron' ability to remotely destroy my joints."

"In other words, the range of this stand-in's ability is actually not even 20 meters?"

In a few words, he basically figured out the scope of the metal product's capabilities:
"How much is that?"

"Closer to 20 meters, 15 meters, ten meters, or five meters?"

Li Qing is not talking nonsense, but is using his "listening and lie detection" ability to obtain the enemy's intelligence.

This kind of ability has limited effect on Risut, a cold character with good psychological quality.

But on enemies like Bessie and Meloni who are either weak-minded or desperate, this little trick can be said to be tried and tested.

Sure enough, when Li Qing leisurely said "ten meters", Meloni's heart began to beat uncontrollably again.

He may not even know that he has unknowingly become a traitor who betrayed his companion's information.

In this way, Meloni once again provided Li Qing with information:

"I understand that the range of ability is ten meters."

A malicious smile appeared on the corner of Li Qing's mouth.

Then, as if he wanted to withdraw his troops and go back home, he turned his head and jumped into the distance.

"Don't let him go!"

Meloni yelled in panic.

Meloni, who wanted to grow wings and escape before, is now "enthusiastic" to keep Li Qing.

This is because he has not yet been swept away by that feeling of despair:
Of course he could understand that Li Qing didn't want to let them go, but wanted to get out of the ten-meter range of metal products.

Once Li Qing was allowed to walk out of the ten-meter distance, Risut would be completely caught in that kind of predicament.

When the time comes, they won't be able to get rid of Li Qing in terms of speed, they won't be able to match Li Qing in terms of strength, and they won't be able to attack Li Qing in terms of ability.
Li Qing just stood ten meters away and kept throwing bricks at them, and they could all be crushed to death by this kind of attack without technical content.

No. He doesn't even have to attack.

He just needs to walk around the perimeter to blockade and keep Risut and Meloni from escaping. They will be crushed into fly ash by Li Qing's follow-up companions in a short time.

And their only hope of breaking the situation is to deal with Li Qing as soon as possible before Jotaro and others arrive.

In order to achieve this goal, they couldn't let Li Qing go out of his ability.

Risut clearly understands this as well.

Therefore, when Li Qing jumped out and tried to get out of the range of his ability, Risut also reacted decisively and quickly:
"metal products!"

He repeated the same trick, manipulating the iron element in Li Qing's body to gather at the knee joint.

In just an instant, a sharp blade pierced through the flesh and bones, and its blade was deeply embedded in the articular cartilage.

Li Qing's running figure froze.

But it was only a little stagnation.

Li Qing pulled out the blade without hesitation, and his damaged joints quickly recovered.

And Risut could only continue to make blades at Li Qing's joints while chasing closely behind Li Qing.

He tried his best to delay Li Qing's action.

But that still doesn't do much.

Li Qing pulled out the blade twice casually, seeing that the blade was pulled out and grew longer, he simply let it go——

Anyway, a long knife in the joint does not hurt or hurt at all, at most it locks the articular cartilage, making it unable to bend freely and move flexibly.

So Li Qing simply ignored these blades.

He straightened his blade-studded knees, jumping forward in that straight zombie jumping posture in old ghost movies.

Although this posture is very funny and ridiculous, and jumping is far less fast than running.

But no matter what, Li Qing was moving forward in a real way.

Risut and Meloni could only passively follow behind.

But after a few steps, they found that what they were doing was meaningless:

It's not because they can't catch up, but even if they catch up, it won't change the overall situation.

Because the damage of metal products was too low, even if Li Qing stood there and let them hit him, they might not be able to kill Li Qing.

That being the case, why bother to chase after it?

Anyway, the time has dragged on for a long time, Li Qing's companions will still come, and they still have to die.

Thinking of this, Meloni even thought of waiting for death in despair.

Risut was insisting on pursuing him closely, but judging from his gloomy face, he seemed to be helpless in the current situation.

Then, just like that, this comical chase lasted for about a few seconds
Li Qing suddenly stopped by himself inexplicably.

This is not because he gave up his original tactics.

It was because he suddenly discovered in the process of advancing that there was an extra negative status on his system panel at some point:
"asphyxia."

Seeing these two bright characters, Li Qing couldn't help hesitating:

It is not surprising that his digital body often exhibits various negative states.

For example, if he accidentally ingests poison, the system will immediately convert the poison's influence into a negative state of "poisoning", and cause continuous damage to Li Qing for a certain period of time.

In the same way, "suffocation" is also a negative state.

But the suffocation of ordinary people will be fatal, even if they do not die, it will seriously affect their bodily functions.

But Li Qing is different. The system has always roughly judged fatal physical injuries such as poisoning and suffocation as a negative state that can only cause blood loss.

Li Qing's body functions were not affected at all, the so-called "suffocation" would only make him lose blood slowly, and the speed of this blood loss was still very negligible.

Therefore, having an extra negative state of "suffocation" does not have a big impact on him.

But now the problem is.
Li Qing didn't play diving or hold his breath now, how could he suddenly suffocate when he was doing well?
"Is there poison on this knife?"

Suddenly discovering such a strange situation, Li Qing couldn't help frowning tightly.

If you don't understand, you have to ask.

Li Qing immediately set his sights on Meloni:

"Hey, can this substitute ability still poison people?"

Meloni's heartbeat didn't increase significantly.

Obviously, Risut's stand-in ability itself has no poisonous effect.

However, he happened to be able to lead to the result of "suffocation".

"why is that?"

Li Qing's brain is rapidly active:
"Just letting blades grow in my body, how can it cause suffocation?"

"Blade. Iron. Could it be?!"

He suddenly thought that the element iron is actually closely related to human breathing.

Because iron is the main substance to maintain life and an important raw material for making hemoglobin.

Hemoglobin is the main force responsible for transporting oxygen in blood vessels.

If there is too much iron deficiency in the human body, iron deficiency anemia will appear. The first symptom is dyspnea, or even suffocation.

"No way?"

"Is it because of iron deficiency?"

Li Qing said to himself in astonishment:
"It's impossible—"

"There is only less than 5 grams of iron in the human body. Could those knives still be made of iron in my body?"

He said these words just subconsciously venting his incomprehension.

But Li Qing never expected that after hearing such absurd and contrary to common sense words,
The reliable intelligence agent, Mr. Meloni, actually answered him with a "YES" with a sudden heartbeat.

"Also, is it really made of iron from the human body?"

"This substitute ability is to control the iron element in the human body? Can a normal human body really produce so many blades?"

Li Qing's question was immediately answered in the affirmative by Meloni.

Now he looks like a man who answers all questions, or the kind without black-hearted advertisements.

"Do people in this world have so much iron in their bodies?"

"Could it be that my body has mutated into an 'predator' after eating food from another world for two days?"

Li Qing couldn't help sighing in shock.

And after reluctantly accepting the magical setting that all human beings in this world are "old iron", he immediately thought of a question quickly:
"Even if I do as the Romans do, I become a 'predator'."

"But no matter what, the iron in a human body is limited, right? No matter how much iron there is in the blood, it can't be so much as to be calculated in kilograms, right?"

"That is to say. The trick of 'a knife in the flesh' can't be played a few times at all."

"And once the iron in my body is depleted, you'll have nothing to do with me—"

Li Qing forcefully asked:
"Am I right?"

Intelligence agent Meloni's breathing became a little difficult.

Even Risut, who was full of concentration and unpredictable, felt his heart skip a beat.

Li Qing's step-by-step analysis and the exposure of the information seemed to have disturbed Risut's state of mind, causing him to have this obvious physiological reaction.

It's no wonder they, after all
As long as the iron in the body is depleted, he can't listen to it. How can this be human talk!
Normal people will die when their iron status is exhausted!How did it become an advantage for you? !

Meloni roared with grief and indignation in her heart.

In his eyes, this Li Qing was simply a monster from hell, a demon from the abyss.

And Li Qing's playful voice really resounded like a devil's whisper.

He unhurriedly pulled out the blood-stained blade from his body and threw it on the ground, using the crisp sound of the metal colliding with the ground to accompany his bone-chilling voice:

"I see. Then I understand."

"I thought you could use this move indefinitely, so I wanted to hide out of your ability and take a long-range attack."

"I didn't expect it. It turns out that your stand-in ability has such a big limitation."

"So much iron has been extracted from my body just now, and I'm already in a state of suffocation—I'm afraid, the raw materials in my body are almost used up?"

He looked at his blood volume, which was still stably maintained at more than 90%, and felt more confident in his heart.

In this way, Li Qing simply and neatly abandoned the original battle plan.

He stayed where he was, and looked aggressively at Risut with a dignified expression:

"Stop chasing me so hard."

"As you wish, I will not run again."

With a stern smile on the corner of Li Qing's mouth, he slowly approached like a hungry tiger:

"Just let me take a good look—"

"Is it your iron that runs out first, or my blood first!"
