Bai Ye looked at the blood on the ground and sneered again, "You're dying!"
Yin Hu gritted his teeth and remained silent, knowing that Bai Ye was deliberately trying to affect his emotions. The best course of action was to not respond, to pretend he heard nothing.
*Bang!*
Enduring the bone-chilling cold spreading through his body, Yin Hu leaped towards Bai Ye again, intending to kill him.
However, the moment he reached Bai Ye, Tyrannosaurus suddenly twisted its body, and its massive tail swung towards Yin Hu.
*Bang!*
Yin Hu raised his mechanical arm, taking the full force of Tyrannosaurus's tail strike, and then...
A mechanical whirring sound suddenly echoed, and blades sprang from the edge of the mechanical arm.
*Swoosh!*
Tyrannosaurus's tail was sliced open, and blood splattered onto the ground.
Bai Ye's pupils contracted. Watching Tyrannosaurus retreat in pain, his expression turned grim.
"It seems you want to die quickly!" Bai Ye took a deep breath and charged forward, "I'll grant your wish!"
Bai Ye bent his knees slightly and rushed forward, heading straight for Yin Hu.
As he ran, Bai Ye took out a deck of playing cards and scattered them forward. Countless cards flew into the air, drifting apart!
But in the next instant, the Paper God ability activated, and the playing cards suddenly hovered in mid-air. Then, like sharp blades, they rained down relentlessly.
Yin Hu quickly brought his mechanical arm in front of him. A ring of metal pieces suddenly shot out from the front, forming a circle and becoming a shield.
*Clang, clang, clang...*
The playing cards struck the shield surface repeatedly, emitting crisp sounds.
Then...
Bai Ye leaped up and stomped heavily on the shield, forcing Yin Hu backward.
Yin Hu stabilized himself and immediately raised his mechanical arm, preparing to fire. However, at this moment, a strange noise came from the mechanical arm. After a burst of vibration, it failed to launch an energy sphere as expected.
"I see..." Bai Ye chuckled, "This is a defective product, isn't it? Let me guess, this should be a full set of mechanical armor, but you only managed to get one arm?"
Yin Hu's face contorted. Bai Ye immediately knew he had guessed correctly.
Advanced items like future technological weapons were not easy to obtain. While not entirely impossible, it was difficult for normal reasons, not just due to unknown origins but also due to the danger involved, making people hesitant to act.
But if it were a defective product, it would be a different story. Of course, obtaining even a defective product was quite an achievement. However, since it was incomplete, it naturally had some flaws.
So...
Strike while the iron is hot!
Bai Ye winked at Tyrannosaurus.
Tyrannosaurus was indeed intelligent. A mere exchange of glances told Bai Ye what he needed.
*Roar!*
In the next moment, Tyrannosaurus threw its head back and roared. From its gaping maw, a large patch of fire suddenly appeared.
Super Flame!
Accompanied by Tyrannosaurus's roar, a vast expanse of flames was spewed out. In an instant, it formed a sea of fire that surged forward, the flames rolling like waves, layer upon layer, overlapping without end.
Yin Hu dared not withstand it directly. Fire was not something that could be blocked by a mere shield.
However, as Yin Hu attempted to retreat from the area covered by the flames...
"Fire Curse!"
Bai Ye formed a talisman in his hand and pressed it forward in the air. Immediately...
*Boom!*
The flames within the sea of fire exploded. The massive air blast sent Yin Hu flying, crashing heavily onto the ground.
Bai Ye seized the opportunity to attack, swiftly closing the distance to Yin Hu.
Yin Hu quickly raised his shield.
*Clang!*
Bai Ye raised his palm and struck the shield directly.
Feeling the force transmitted through the shield, Yin Hu breathed a sigh of relief. In terms of strength, he did not fear Bai Ye at all. Even with Bai Ye's body reinforced by the T-virus, it was no match for Yin Hu.
What Yin Hu feared was the chilling energy of the Xuanming Divine Palm. Once it entered the body, it was excruciatingly painful. At this moment, Yin Hu felt as if his internal organs were frozen, causing immense suffering.
But as long as the shield blocked Bai Ye's palm, and their bodies did not make direct contact...
"You thought you could avoid the cold energy entering your body by not being touched?"
Bai Ye's voice echoed softly.
Yin Hu was instantly startled, then looked at his shield. Frost had already covered its surface. Following that, a wisp of cold air drifted past the shield and coiled around Yin Hu's arm.
In a flash, Yin Hu's arm turned purplish-blue, showing signs of frostbite.
"Ugh..."
Feeling the pain, Yin Hu retreated continuously, clutching his elbow, trying to prevent the cold from spreading further upwards.
However, at this very moment...
*Swoosh!*
A flash of silver sword light suddenly appeared behind Yin Hu and slashed down.
Accompanied by Yin Hu's scream, the sound of tearing flesh rang out, and the arm clad in mechanical armor flew into the air.
Bai Ye casually spread his hand, and the Frost Condensing Sword flew back to his side.
"There!" Bai Ye said to Yin Hu, "Your last resort is gone, isn't it?"
Yin Hu gritted his teeth, panting against the wall behind him.
"It seems you're truly out of tricks," Bai Ye said, gripping the Frost Condensing Sword. "Then die!"
*Swoosh!*
Bai Ye swung the Frost Condensing Sword forward forcefully, sweeping across Yin Hu's neck and leaving a trail of blood.
In the next instant, Bai Ye turned and walked away.
Yin Hu's body slid down the wall, collapsing to the ground. Simultaneously, his ability failed, and his once robust body rapidly withered, quickly reverting to the physique of an ordinary person, and then...
He ceased to breathe entirely!
1:41 AM, Yin Hu, deceased!
...
With Yin Hu's elimination, the remaining survivors of the Twelve Great Battles were now six, only half the original number. The end was one step closer.
However, this wasn't what made Bai Ye the happiest. What made him happier was...
"You have eliminated a participant (Ability World)."
"You have obtained a fragment of the God Stone."
Finally, a God Stone fragment!
Those who could participate in the Twelve Great Battles were the top twelve individuals who had completed the restricted zone missions. This meant that every participant in the Twelve Great Battles must possess a God Stone fragment.
And then...
You Rooster, Si Snake, Wei Sheep...
He had killed three, yet he hadn't obtained a single God Stone fragment. Bai Ye was on the verge of a breakdown. Although his luck with the gacha draws today was good, he couldn't sacrifice all his luck in other areas!
Fortunately, Yin Hu was indeed formidable, finally allowing Bai Ye to see a God Stone fragment.
"I hope the next opponents are just as formidable,"
Bai Ye thought gleefully, but at this moment...
*Rumble!*
Suddenly, in the quiet night, a loud explosion occurred.
...
