Chapter 44 0.5 seconds, 3 seconds
In the open space surrounded by a group of onlookers, Zhou Ming was still in a state of uncertainty.
He watched the person in front of him break the stone plate and wondered what it meant.
But the next second, the other party's body underwent huge changes.
As the werewolf let out waves of beastly roars, the muscles on his body began to swell, and black and gray animal hair drilled out of the pores at a speed visible to the naked eye, covering his whole body in the blink of an eye!
As the bones expand, the arches of the feet and toes lengthen, the waist becomes thinner, and the shoulders expand wider.
Originally close to two meters in height, the werewolf increased by one meter in just a few seconds. The werewolf locked eyes with Zhou Ming with its animalistic pupils, opened its huge mouth and let out a deafening roar.
The surrounding crowd of spectators all retreated further, leaving enough fighting space for both sides.
Zhou Ming was also wary. He took off the sword hanging from his back and held it with both hands. He stared at the werewolf with his eyes, observing every move of the werewolf.
Although he didn't know the reason, he felt that this seemed to be a fight to the death. If he didn't show his full spirit, he would die here.
After completing the transformation, the werewolf did not immediately attack Zhou Ming. Instead, he slowly walked sideways around Zhou Ming, as if looking for flaws in Zhou Ming's body.
The fierce and tall beast's body formed a sharp contrast with the short hunter. The beast's sharp claws glowed coldly under the red moon.
This upright beast is filled with primitive oppression. In comparison, it is like an unarmed primitive man encountering a hungry tiger.
The surrounding spectators watched this rare showdown with great interest. A laughing gambler jumped out of the crowd and loudly opened a gambling handicap. Others used small stone plates to place bets, some betting against hunters, and others.
The werewolf.
"They never fought!"
"Why do werewolves have an inexplicable sense of fate towards hunters?"
"I hope this battle doesn't end so soon, otherwise it won't be enough!"
Zhou Ming secretly looked at the people watching the show and guessed that such activities should be very common here.
Just when Zhou Ming was distracted, the werewolf opposite suddenly let out a low roar.
"Roar!"
He saw the werewolf lowering his body, landing on all fours, and running toward him at an incredible speed!
In the eyes of others, a distance of ten meters was crossed by the werewolf with two leaps. His limbs were stretched out, and his already huge body visually swelled again, like a vicious tiger pouncing on the hunter!
In Zhou Ming's eyes, the opponent's body quickly enlarged in his field of vision, and the pressure doubled in a second.
The distance between the two sides shortened instantly, and the werewolf's claws swept forward like five sharp folding knives!
Zhou Ming dodged and hid behind half of the stone pillar, then struck the stone pillar with five claws.
The hard rock failed to slow down the speed and power of the claw. With a teeth-searing friction sound, the claw left five clear claw marks on the stone pillar and struck towards Zhou Ming's abdomen like lightning!
"Zizzizi——!"
The great sword rubbed against the ground, pulling out a circle of sparks. Zhou Ming used his waist as an axis, rotated and dragged the great sword, aimed at the wolf claws and delivered a powerful horizontal slash!
Amid the exclamations of the crowd, this beautiful sword was easily dodged by the werewolf.
"Damn it! I was dodged!" The crowd of onlookers roared.
"Normally, the reaction of the beast is very fast, and one uses a weapon and the other uses his hands. Of course, the weapons are not as flexible as the hands."
"Although the attack power of both sides is similar, whether it is speed or flexibility, the werewolf has the advantage."
"The human body cannot use such a heavy weapon as an arm to swing around. Once one sword misses, it is impossible to immediately strike with a second sword. I think he is in danger."
"Hey! Fortunately, I suppressed the werewolf."
…
The first attack failed, and Zhou Ming was slightly surprised. The opponent's reaction was much faster than he expected!
The heavy sword struck the stone pillar next to it, making a loud noise.
Only half of the stone pillar was left, broken and collapsed under this heavy blow. This horizontal slash with speed and power caused a huge flaw in Zhou Ming's posture. The werewolf took the opportunity to stretch out his other hand and probe towards
Zhou Ming’s back!
While the werewolf changed hands to attack, Zhou Ming's sword remained unabated. The heavy sword body not only gave it great power, but also gave it great inertia.
After the chop failed, Zhou Ming's body was forcibly dragged and turned at an angle of thirty degrees. Not only did the fatal flaw on his back be exposed, he also lost the vision of half of the werewolf's body!
Zhou Ming can no longer fight back with his sword!
This is the price of power. Not only do you have to give up smart moves, but you also lose the power of quick attacks.
This is not a weapon that ordinary people can control. Once an attack fails to establish an advantage, the side effects will be huge.
This sword is too heavy for a human body to wield like an arm.
But the hands of a werewolf are real hands. The sharp five claws are another form of weapon. They also have strength and speed, but are more flexible! More changeable! And more deadly!
The time from when the werewolf evaded the attack to when he changed hands for the second attack happened almost at the same time, with a time difference of less than 0.5 seconds!
"It's over, let me see the hunter..."
A certain audience member was giving an on-the-spot explanation. He was only halfway through his explanation when Zhou Ming decisively released the hilt of his great sword with his left hand, took out the old-fashioned musket from his waist, and fired a shot at the wolf's head that was close at hand.
Fast as lightning!
The bullet rushed out of the gun's barrel in the smoke, wiping a medium-deep blood mark on the werewolf's cheek.
The next second, a large amount of blood spurted out from the wound, covering the vision of the werewolf's left eye!
"Ho ho ho ho!!"
Amidst the angry roar of the werewolf, Zhou Ming's wrist holding the hilt of the straight sword turned, and the mechanism of the Zimu Sword made a slight snap. The lighter and more flexible straight sword hidden in the big sword came out from the thick
The big sword was drawn out, and like a white light, it struck behind him instantly!
The sharp sword cut open the werewolf's left hand, and the severe pain was like a wandering lightning, going straight from the wound to the werewolf's brain.
The pain paralyzed the sharp fighting consciousness, and a large amount of blood spattered from the werewolf's wrist, dyeing Zhou Ming's black leather windbreaker bright red.
Amidst the furious roar of the opponent, Zhou Ming took a step forward, approached the inside of the werewolf's torso, raised the straight sword in his hand, and slashed along the line from the opponent's left shoulder to his right waist!
The beast's muscles have huge elasticity, and the thick fur on the outside also has a certain degree of defense, so the feel of this sword is not particularly good.
Without the blessing of heavy weight, the power of the weapon has also been greatly weakened. If it were a big sword, I believe the wound caused by this sword would be deeper.
The effect of violent blood activates again.
After receiving the blow, Zhou Ming took a step back to avoid the blood flow bursting out from the werewolf's chest. The blood flow that would have blocked his vision was completely dodged by him, and a vermilion fan shape spread out in front of the werewolf.
Hearing the wild beast's angry roar and roar in his ears, Zhou Ming's heart stopped and he silently calculated the next attack steps.
Zhou Ming's eyes moved slightly, he put down his left hand, and inserted the spent musket back into his wallet.
He took off the straight sword in his right hand and switched it to his left hand. With a flip of his wrist, the straight sword plunged straight into the big sword standing on the ground.
Then he rotated the sword hilt vigorously, the mechanism made a slight sound, bit the joint to death, and the two swords were reassembled into a complete sword!
At this point, only three seconds have passed since the werewolf launched its attack!
The onlookers didn't even have a chance to react, but the shock in their hearts was no less than any death fight they had seen before.
What had just been performed in front of them was a gorgeous killing art. It was so fast that it was almost difficult to recall the details, but its smoothness and conciseness left an indelible impression on everyone's minds.
There are no extra steps at all, it’s simply a violent aesthetic!
The impression of strength and weakness was completely reversed. Primitive men and tigers turned into butchers and wild dogs. The first round of confrontation was an overwhelming victory of skill over strength!
"I...I think the hunter seems to have a backup plan!" The commentator who was halfway through the sentence just now forcibly changed his lines and completed the second half of the sentence.
But no one paid attention to him, and everyone around him was involved in a heated discussion.
"I feel like he's different from before!"
"What's going on with him? I've never seen him play like this!"
"Did he never take it seriously in the previous battles? That sword can still be used like this!"
In the crowd, the gentleman opened his eyes wide and looked at this scene in disbelief.
Chapter completed!
