Armor Hero: The Return of the Underworld

The Earth Tiger Armor combined with the Earth Escape Technique sounds like a powerful weapon, but once you've used it yourself, you'll realize it's not quite that simple.

As can be seen from Li Ziyang's constant training in the Emperor movie, the combat of the armor is closely related to the physical fitness of the summoner.

In other words, controlling the Earth Tiger Armor in battle requires consuming the armor's energy and the summoner's physical energy, while burrowing underground requires consuming mental energy.

That should make it clear to everyone.

In other words, when you burrow underground, although the earth replenishes the energy of your armor, it cannot replenish your mental energy.

Once you stop burrowing underground, you no longer need to consume mental energy, but you will need to consume armor energy.

Mo Fan could withstand a short fight like he did against Kula last time, but this time, in order to better demonstrate the power of the Earth Tiger Armor, he was genuinely "jumping and leaping around".

Try doing squats and you'll understand. Doing ten or twenty won't feel that tiring, but try doing hundreds, you'll kill yourself.

Moreover, if Mo Fan had used Bakuru's body to summon the armor, it wouldn't have come to this, but he summoned it using Shadow Overlord's body.

With Shadow Overlord's useless body, the bloodline of Earth Shadow Village was already polluted, as could be seen from his obese body. He didn't exercise much, and he didn't possess either of the two factors needed to summon the armor. At this moment, Mo Fan was also about to collapse.

The frequent use of the Earth-遁术 (Earth-遁术 is a technique that allows one to burrow underground) also caused Mo Fan to consume a great deal of his mental energy.

If summoning the Earth Tiger Armor consumes physical strength, then using the Earth Escape Technique consumes mental strength.

Mo Fan is now "physically and mentally exhausted".

The weakened Mo Fan suddenly realized that the Earth Shadow Stone was continuously supplying him with energy, but the energy being supplied was very weak, which should also be related to the strength of his bloodline.

When the Earth Shadow Stone wasn't supplying energy, Mo Fan was fine. But as soon as it did, he became drowsy and collapsed against the wall, hugging the Earth Shadow Stone. Before long, he couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep.

At that moment, Kula emerged from the ground...

"Ah! Ah!"

Mo Fan suddenly felt a sharp pain that made him almost jump up, and he cried out in agony.

After calling out a few times, the Netherworld Demon form was activated, and the pain in his body subsided. Only then did Mo Fan realize where he was.

"Kula, what are you doing!"

Mo Fan discovered that his hands were suspended in a high-voltage electrical device, receiving "electric therapy" from the high voltage. Meanwhile, Kula was twisting the high-voltage knob to control the voltage, so he shouted at Kula.

No wonder I was in so much pain just now, it was high voltage electricity, that was really exciting.

Wait, why doesn't it hurt anymore?

Mo Fan glanced around and saw that the surroundings were still crackling with electricity, and the high voltage had not stopped at all, so why didn't he feel any pain?

"What's all the noise about? Would you be awake by now if it weren't for this?"

Kula scolded Mo Fan.

"Bullshit!"

Mo Fan was already angry, and when he heard Kula scolding him like that, he couldn't help but swear.

"What did you say?!"

Upon hearing this, Kula raised her twin swords and slashed at Mo Fan.

"Oh, oh, oh, I was wrong, sis, I was wrong!"

Mo Fan was startled and broke free of the chains, jumping down from the device.

"Ok?"

Mo Fan didn't expect to break free of the chains so easily. Looking down, he realized he had reverted to his Netherworld Demon form. No wonder he wasn't feeling pain when he was being shocked by the high voltage.

"Wow!"

Mo Fan was about to speak when he looked up and saw Kula's twin swords coming down towards his head.

"what!"

Because he had been stunned for a moment, Mo Fan had no time to escape. He was hit hard on the head twice, and the pain made him collapse to the ground.

"You little brat! You're asking for trouble, daring to talk to me like that?!"

Kula straddled Mo Fan, holding two swords to his neck and shouting at him.

As for why Kula called him "little brat," Mo Fan figured she wasn't referring to him, but rather to Bakuru.

Mo Fan felt that since Bakuru had an older brother and Kula was the vice-captain of the Crimson Nether Squad, Kula must be older than Bakuru and had been in the Netherworld Legion for a longer time, which was why Kula called Bakuru "little brat".

"I, I was wrong."

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Mo Fan had no choice but to back down.

After the last drill, Mo Fan knew that he couldn't escape, because even if he burrowed underground, Kula could "dig" him out again, and he couldn't beat her in a fight.

Mo Fan felt like a little boy who had acted like a jerk towards his older sister but got caught, pinned to the ground, and beaten up. Only those who had experienced it firsthand could understand the helplessness of being unable to fight back or escape.

Seeing that Mo Fan had given in, Kula got up and released him.

Mo Fan stood up, rubbing his head. Kula's two slashes just now were really powerful, without holding back any strength.

“You’ve been asleep for two days and I couldn’t wake you up, so I had to come up with this way to get you out of bed.”

Kula explained to Mofan.

"Damn! Have I been sleeping for two days already?"

Mo Fan thought to himself, "I don't feel anything at all."

"Then these two days..."

"Things have been calm these past two days."

Kula interrupted Mofan.

"That's true. With the mutant beast in our hands, what trouble can we expect if we don't cause it ourselves?"

Mo Fan couldn't help but laugh at himself.

"By the way, I found that Xi Zhao you asked me to find."

Kula added.

"Really?"

Mo Fan exclaimed in delight.

"Well, you didn't let me touch him, so I just followed him. At first, I thought he was no different from other stupid Earthlings, but later I sensed a strange white energy from him and realized that he was the person you were looking for."

Kula continued.

"Good good."

Mo Fan happily said "good" three times in a row.

Kula is truly a capable wife. Even when she was unconscious, she still managed to handle things perfectly. No wonder Lufa took her with him when he fled.

Mo Fan had two reasons for not letting Kula act rashly.

One reason is that he doesn't want to arouse the suspicion of the Realm King, otherwise it would be more troublesome. According to Mo Fan's current plan, he can get rid of the Realm King by taking it one step at a time. However, if there is a problem in any link, then it is uncertain. Therefore, Mo Fan still wants to develop steadily for the time being.

Another concern is that Xi Zhao might activate the Snow Mastiff Armor to automatically protect him. No one can say for sure how strong the White-Eyed Snow Mastiff is, since the Snow Mastiff in its normal form is already so powerful. Mo Fan doesn't want to make any unnecessary sacrifices.

"Cao!"

After dealing with these matters, Mo Fan transformed back into Shadow Overlord. However, as soon as he transformed back, he felt dizzy and weak in the legs. He was about to collapse to the ground when Mo Fan exerted his strength and transformed back into Netherworld Demon form.

"this?"

Mo Fan was confused. Why was that?

"Human bodies are too weak. You overused that Earth Tiger Armor and almost ruined the human body. So you can't use this body for the time being."

Kula said as he walked away from a short distance away.

"So, that's how it is?"

Mo Fan finally realized that he had misunderstood Kula.
