San Tian Liang Jue
Chapter 1439 Dreams Come True Won't Be Far
“He’s finally back…” Lord Ruin, who knew the most about the Strength Demon's power and was also the most nervous person present, breathed a sigh of relief.
“Howdy~ho~” Mr. Hánjī jumped up excitedly and shouted to Feng Bujue, “How was it? Did you succeed?”
“Heh… of course, I succeeded.” While responding, Feng Bujue had already used Moonstep, stepping into the air.
His movements were extremely fast, his figure appearing and disappearing, and in the blink of an eye, he was next to the Strength Demon and Xiao Tan.
“You came at the right time…” As soon as Feng Bujue stood still, Billy immediately interjected, “Show it… the power you obtained.”
“No need.” Unexpectedly, Feng Bujue gave these three words.
“Hey, hey… can’t you see the current situation?” Hearing this, Lord Ruin asked in a drawn-out voice, “This is still ‘no need’, then when is it ‘necessary’?”
“Heh… don’t be anxious.” Feng Bujue’s attitude was still relaxed. “The situation is constantly changing…” He said, turning his gaze to the Strength Demon, who was only two meters away from him, “Originally… I did plan to use my newly ‘obtained power’ to deal with the Strength Demon, but when I stood on the city wall just now, I was surprised to find… that he had become like this. Then I felt… that using some of my original abilities to kill him was more reliable than removing his restrictions and fighting him head-on.”
“What do you mean?” Freddy asked suspiciously, “Are you saying… that you could have killed the Strength Demon with your original abilities? Then why did you risk going to the Samsara Well?”
“No… it’s not that concept.” Feng Bujue replied, “For example, you have a handgun. A handgun can certainly kill a fly, but as long as the fly is still flying around, you won’t kill it even if you empty all the bullets.” As he spoke, he smiled and glanced at the Strength Demon. “However, if that fly is stuck on flypaper, it’s a different story…”
“So… the Strength Demon is the fly, and Xiao Tan is the flypaper?” Xu Huai Shang interjected.
“That’s right.” Feng Bujue nodded. “Before I jumped into the Samsara Well, I didn’t expect… that Xiao Tan could successfully suppress the Strength Demon.” He paused for half a second and smiled. “In my imagination, any creature that gets within five meters of the Strength Demon… even if it isn’t instantly killed, could never comfortably release a skill at him.”
“Hehe…” Xiao Tan felt that these words were praising him and smiled slightly smugly. “It seems I did something amazing.”
“Yes, you did something amazing.” Feng Bujue also affirmed Xiao Tan. “In fact, you don’t have to belittle yourself… We can say that in the entire Thriller Paradise, among millions of players, there are very few who can suppress the Strength Demon like you.”
“Alright, now is not the time to chat about this.” Lord Ruin interrupted them impatiently and continued, “I understood your example just now, so… what is your so-called ‘handgun that can kill a fly’…?”
“It’s this…” Before Feng Bujue could finish speaking, he had already taken out a small wooden mallet from his bag.
“【Rat Hammer】?” Ruo Yu was the first to recognize this item and instantly guessed Feng Bujue's idea. “Hmm… perhaps… using this might really work…”
“That’s right!” Xiao Ling also reacted almost at the same time. “The 【Rat Hammer】 is a weapon that ‘can injure any enemy, no matter how strong’… In front of the 【Rat Hammer】, defense is meaningless.”
She was right. No matter if the Strength Demon's defense was one hundred, ten thousand, or one hundred million, anyway, the 【Rat Hammer】 would cause ‘1 point’ of damage with each hit (similar to so-called true damage); since it was “damage” and not “armor penetration”, it would naturally directly deduct health points instead of reducing defense.
“Heh… so, my method is…” As Feng Bujue spoke, he quickly walked to the side and rear of the Strength Demon, raised the 【Rat Hammer】, and gently tapped the opponent with a force similar to that of a back massage.
To others, this tap didn’t seem like much, it didn’t seem to hurt, but… the Strength Demon was shocked.
Because, just this light tap made him “lose health”; this feeling was not easy to describe, it was roughly the kind of pain you feel when you slightly scratch your hand – so small that it can be almost ignored, but enough to let you know that it is a real “injury.”
“Good, this is the right strength.” After testing it, Feng Bujue said, “This way, I can deal damage without interrupting Xiao Tan’s skill.”
Feng Bujue was still on the cautious side. In fact, considering the Strength Demon's physique, even if Feng Bujue used dozens of kilograms more force, his body would still not move at all.
“If I had known you could suppress the Strength Demon, I wouldn’t have needed to go to the Samsara Well.” Feng Bujue said, starting to move his shoulders and arms, as if doing some warm-up exercises.
“This kind of thing, which even I only have a twenty percent chance of succeeding…” Xiao Tan looked up at Feng Bujue through the falling dandruff and said with a wry smile, “Don’t mention you… I’m surprised that I succeeded myself.”
As he spoke, Feng Bujue’s right hand… moved.
In his hand, the 【Rat Hammer】 swung out multiple afterimages, repeatedly and lightly hitting the Strength Demon's back in almost overlapping trajectories.
If Thriller Paradise was a game that could display combat stats, dense numbers like "-1-1-1-1..." would be popping up above the Strength Demon's head at this moment.
“How can there be such a thing…” The First of the Demons, who had similar energy to the Strength Demon, could see that the Strength Demon's life was being depleted. Faced with this scene, the First of the Demons couldn’t help but say, “If the Strength Demon is really hammered to death by this little hammer, then…”
He didn’t continue, because he couldn’t even imagine such a situation.
“Although you’re very fast… but I’ll ask anyway…” At this time, Hua Jian, out of curiosity, said to Feng Bujue, “How long will you have to hit him like this before he dies?” To remind everyone, she pointed to the sky, “We can wait, but those guys in the sky…”
“Those guys in the sky are up to you.” Feng Bujue interrupted before she could finish speaking. “According to my observation, you three Death Spirit Knights, plus the two Popes of the Illusion Demon Church, plus two Pillar God-level combatants, and a glutton… are all at full health. With everyone's strength, you can obviously hold on for quite a while.” After saying this, he quickly switched the 【Rat Hammer】 to his left hand and started hammering. “I’ll definitely need to knock for a while longer, after all, he’s the Strength Demon… You should be able to guess that this guy has super high health and very strong recovery… Of course, under my hand speed of being single for decades, his recovery efficiency is still falling behind.”
Just as he said this, the Redundant Soldier Legion had also restabilized from the chaos caused by his appearance, and the Sweepers immediately issued the order… All-out attack!
“Everyone… work hard.” Seeing this, Feng Bujue still said calmly, “As soon as I hammer the Strength Demon to death, I’ll come and help you.”
