Chapter 157: The Inaccessible Enemy
The essence of a battery is a device that converts chemical energy into electrical energy.
According to this definition, all animals and plants that have bioelectricity in their bodies can be considered batteries.
Therefore, in Sam Sang's world, humans, cats, dogs, flowers, plants, trees... all living things in this beautiful world are just firecrackers that can be detonated by him at any time.
Setting off firecrackers is a fun activity, but doing the same thing too often will get boring.
If you want to keep the fun of this activity going, you have to add some tricks to the action of "releasing".
Like some naughty kids who like to blow up manholes and cesspools, Sam Sang has his own explosion habit that can bring excitement and surprises: he likes to bring unexpected, unforeseen and unexpected explosions to people.
But Li Qing's alertness ruined his fun.
"hateful…"
"Why won't you let me surrender?"
The moment Li Qing reminded his companions, Saim's sincere and harmless expression suddenly became distorted:
"I really want to be your 'companion'..."
Yes, he really wanted to "surrender." At least, he would not launch an attack for the time being.
Because frontal combat is not his favorite way of explosion, it does not save effort and does not bring any surprises.
His original plan was to pretend to be the companion of the prey and gain the target's trust, and then everyone would sit together happily, drinking Coke, chatting, eating pizza and singing songs - but halfway through the song, he exploded.
Syme would sit in the scorching hot air filled with human debris, recalling the stunned, terrified and confused expressions of his "companions" when faced with the explosion, while humming the remaining half of the song.
Only such a dramatic explosion can be enough to stimulate people.
Unfortunately, all of this was ruined by Li Qing.
"careful!"
"Don't come any closer!"
Li Qing's roar at the top of his lungs interrupted Saim's explosion plan, which he thought was artistic.
Fugo and Bucciarati, who were approaching, suddenly stopped and looked at Syme with hostility in their eyes.
“Damn it!!”
Syme stood up suddenly from the ground in anger:
"Since you don't want to live any longer, then just go die now - Galaxy Notes!"
There were ripples in the air, and the stand in dark mobile armor appeared in front of Syme in an instant.
The Galaxy Notebook appeared two meters in front of Syme, and Fugo and Bucciarati were less than two meters away from it.
This distance is exactly the detonation distance at which the human body can respond to shock waves.
"Detonate!"
Without any signs or movements, an invisible impact emanated from the mobile armor of Galaxy Note.
The next moment, Fugo and Bucciarati would be blown into two clusters of sparks.
At this critical moment, Li Qing made a move:
"Golden Bell Cover!"
His figure suddenly turned into a phantom, crossing the short distance between life and death in time.
This is a race against death. Even if the distance is short, he must run at his fastest speed.
Li Qing's shadow passed through the air, sank into the human body, and finally entered from the backs of Bucciarati and Fugo's chest in a very strange posture, and then passed through their bodies in front of them.
In this way, when the shock wave was released, he was already standing in front of Bucciarati and Fugo in time.
"Walk!"
Although he didn't know the exact detonation distance of the human body, he could still see the urgency of the situation from Syme's crazy expression, and could understand that he should stay as far away from the substitute as possible.
so…
Without saying a word, Li Qing sent a spinning kick toward his companion behind him.
The situation is too critical, this is the most time-saving way.
Bucciarati and Fugo fell backwards suddenly under this kick - and it was this fall that allowed them to narrowly escape the two-meter human detonation distance.
However, the danger does not end there.
In their place, Li Qing exploded.
It's a wonderful feeling.
At this moment, Li Qing could feel that every cell in his body was burning and exploding.
The raging fire and high temperature brought with them a powerful shock wave that penetrated the body from the inside out.
He turned into a human-shaped torch, emitting powerful light and heat in all directions.
Because of this, Bucciarati and Fugo, who had just escaped danger, were in big trouble.
Although they did not explode, they were affected by the explosion on Li Qing at close range.
The scorching flames struck them at a close distance, shattering their muscles and bones in an instant and also turning their skin black in an instant.
Finally, the explosion stopped.
Li Qing appeared to be intact, even the clothes on his body were not damaged at all.
But, just in that instant, that explosion took away more than 50% of his health.
Li Qing did not hesitate at all, nor did he dare to hesitate.
When the explosion occurred, he was already desperately rolling outwards to escape.
Finally, before the Galaxy Note released the second explosion shock wave, Li Qing rolled over and escaped two or three meters away with Fugo and Bucciarati who were injured by the explosion.
It all happened in just a moment.
It was only after Li Qing instinctively escaped that he realized with lingering fear that he was lucky to have survived the explosion.
"Fugo, Bucciarati, how are you?"
He hurriedly asked about his companions' situation.
“Not…not bad.”
Bucciarati managed to stand up, and Fugo staggered to his feet shortly after.
Although they said they were "okay", their bodies covered in bruises and bleeding were actually in very bad condition.
It was obvious that with such serious injuries, it was difficult for both of them to exert any combat effectiveness.
"withdraw!"
Li Qing did not hesitate, he supported his two injured companions and ran away desperately.
The situation just now has made him realize that even his buggy digitized body cannot withstand the damage of this kind of body explosion and close combat with the enemy.
If the stand named Galaxy Note caught up with them, all three of them would be blown to ashes in an instant.
But this escape is not so easy.
Both Bucciarati and Fugo were seriously injured, so their movements were inevitably much slower when they escaped.
At the same time, Sam Sang and his Galaxy Notes also started chasing them:
"Damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it..."
"It's all your fault. You ruined my perfect script and forced me to use such a boring method to create the explosion!"
“Go to hell!!”
Syme rushed forward with the Galaxy Note, and the Galaxy Note also raised the grenade launcher tightly held in its hand.
The pitch-black metal barrel began to rotate slowly, and "grenade batteries" shot out from the dark muzzle.
These batteries look like ordinary, harmless cylindrical batteries, but at this moment, in the hands of Galaxy Note, they have turned into real grenades.
They drew simple parabolas in the air, then rolled to the ground and landed beside Li Qing and others who were busy fleeing.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Dozens of sparks burst out, and loud thunder-like noises sounded on the river beach.
This quiet and deserted valley suddenly turned into Hengdian where a war drama was being filmed, with continuous explosions, smoke and flames rising into the sky.
And Li Qing, with his agile and powerful body, was able to restore some of the charm of the protagonist of the drama.
He and his two injured companions dodged and rushed around in the flames of the explosion, but they were never affected by the explosion.
But this is not a long-term solution after all.
The injured Bucciarati and Fugo moved slowly. Faced with Syme and Galaxy Notes getting closer and closer, as well as the increasingly fierce firepower, the pressure they were under would only increase.
Finally, Giorno took action.
He was originally treating Mista and the other two who were injured earlier from a distance, but he didn't expect that before the three wounded were healed, Fugo and Bucciarati fell into the enemy's trap again.
Syme was bombarding the two wounded men, and the situation was extremely critical.
Giorno had no choice but to temporarily put aside the treatment work at hand and turned to help Li Qing and others escape the enemy's pursuit:
“Golden experience!”
The golden fist instantly hammered the ground, and lush trees rose from the ground, forming a large net with their connected branches and leaves.
This large net temporarily blocked the batteries that were thrown at them, giving Li Qing and others a chance to catch their breath.
"How about it?"
Giorno rushed forward quickly, seizing the brief opportunity to catch his breath and meet up with Li Qing.
"We are temporarily unable to fight..."
Bucciarati was well aware of his situation.
He stood with Fugo, who was also injured and unable to move, and said helplessly, "I'm afraid we can only rely on you and Li Qing in this battle."
"clear…"
Giorno sighed deeply and turned his inquiring gaze to Li Qing.
Li Qing shared the information he had just found out without hesitation:
"He can make living things explode."
"The distance at which a human body responds to an explosion is about two meters - we must not get within two meters of that stand-in."
"Yeah." Giorno nodded and asked, "Then what can you do?"
Hearing this question, Li Qing's expression became more serious:
"No... One explosion can take away more than 50% of my health. Although my health is slowly recovering, I can't survive two explosions anyway."
"And judging from the indiscriminate bombardment just now, his detonation ability is almost instantaneous and has no cooldown."
"This means that even if I hit him with the Heavenly Sound Wave and rush forward quickly, I will probably be blown to ashes before I can hit his body."
Lee Sin will also take damage while charging.
If he wanted to hit Syme's body with a melee attack, he would have to break through the two-meter death distance around the Galaxy Note, a total of four meters.
Judging from the high damage that Li Qing had just experienced, this frontal breakthrough method would never succeed.
"Close combat is simply impossible, and long-range attacks cannot match his powerful firepower."
Li Qing frowned tightly, with a rare sadness between his brows:
"This guy... is simply invincible."
