Chapter 17 Grilled Fish
The waves surged, the wind howled, a giant shark named Impact came like a tidal wave, and the breath of death filled the air.
Li Qing faced the ferocious mouth of the giant shark and calmly lit a cigarette.
At this moment, time seemed to stand still.
His gaze passed through the wind, waves and giant shark, and fixed on the doubtful face of Skayaro:
"Teleportation without a cooldown time, with unmatched speed, your Stand is indeed very powerful."
"To fight against such a flexible Stand, no matter how you look at it, you should prioritize bypassing the Stand and attacking the original directly, right?"
"So…"
"Why didn't I do that?"
"Why?!"
Shikya Luo asked this question cooperatively.
He originally thought that Li Qing was just too stupid to deal with [Impact], but now it seems that things are not that simple.
"Because I'm waiting."
"Wait until the time is right before striking back."
Li Qing raised his hand and pointed the cigarette butt in his hand at the giant shark that was charging towards him:
"Look—"
"Is there something extra on your stand?"
"What?"
Skayaro's expression froze, and he looked hurriedly at the ferocious giant shark whose body was frozen on the sea surface.
At first glance, its appearance seems to be no different from before:
The mountain-sized body was covered with hard keratin armor. In the slightly open blood-red mouth, two rows of sharp, white shark teeth emitted a faint cold light.
A large amount of seawater that did not have time to fall back into the sea attached to its streamlined body, emitting colorful waves under the sunlight.
"etc…"
" That light is wrong..."
"That rainbow-like color is not the light that can be reflected by the sea water!"
Shikayaro's expression changed instantly:
"What's clinging to [Impact] is not seawater, but..."
“Gasoline!”
He was suddenly in deep shock:
"when!"
"When did he pour gasoline on [Impact]?!"
"I didn't spill the oil."
"It was your stand-in who just bumped into it."
Time quietly "stood still", Li Qing followed the local customs and began to explain:
"When I figured out that your Stand's ability was to teleport through accumulated water, I had already determined that its size might change depending on the width ."
"Teleport to a smaller body of water, and your stand will only be a dozen centimeters in size."
"And once you teleport to a large area of water, your stand can even expand to half a meter in length in an instant."
“At that time, I was thinking about it.”
"Seawater is also water. If we teleport it to the surface..."
"Will it then turn into a monstrous beast that I am totally unable to match?"
He paused, and his voice was filled with a kind of confidence that he was in control of the situation:
"so…"
"From that moment on, I was preparing for this terrible idea."
Shikayaro's face turned extremely ugly.
Li Qing's words were like a Luoyang shovel in the hands of a tomb raider, digging out the deepest fear in his heart one shovel at a time:
"You know, this ship was leaking oil before you attacked it."
"It may be difficult to see clearly from your side, but I know that the sea surface behind the yacht has long been covered with a thick layer of oil film."
"And I just deliberately went on the boat with your stand-in to delay time, so that the yacht would leak more gasoline and the oil film covering the sea surface would become larger—"
"It's big enough to 'stick a film' to a sea monster!"
He knew from the beginning that with the vast ocean all around him and the enemy able to teleport infinitely in the water, it would be impossible for him to bypass the obstruction of the powerful stand and attack Skayaro's real body.
Therefore, Li Qing chose to attack the stand directly.
In order to harm a monster that is suspected to be able to transform into a sea beast with a weak human body, he can only borrow external forces that can be used in the environment.
He just delayed time deliberately so that a large and heavy oil film could gather on the sea surface behind the yacht.
Then, Li Qing deliberately fired a sound wave at Skayaro's body.
It was not to attack Skayaro, but to force Skayaro to order [Impact] to teleport in front of him and help him block the positioning light ball of Tianyinbo.
As expected, the opponent fell into the trap.
"In fact, as long as you move quickly, you can completely dodge the positioning light ball of Tianyinbo by yourself if you are standing fifty meters away."
"But you Stand users who are overconfident..."
"I've been relying too much on my so-called 'invincible' Stand ability, and I've forgotten about other less labor-saving methods."
Li Qing said in a deep voice:
"So, after seeing the Heavenly Sound Wave I launched, you will definitely ask your Stand to help block it."
"It's like those nouveau riche who return home with their wealth. They can't help but wear their unique and gorgeous clothes all the time to show off."
“Damn it!”
Shikya Luo finally realized his fatal mistake:
"I was completely tricked..."
"That place, that place has long been filled with gasoline!"
"I asked [Impact] to teleport in front of me to block the knife, but I ended up sending my own Stand into the trap!"
However, he no longer has the chance to correct this mistake.
Li Qing had already raised his hand and aimed it at the sea monster that was charging towards him. He lightly flickered a cigarette that was burning faintly:
"That's all I have to say, so..."
“Burn!”
Because of the world rule of 'narration time stop', Li Qing actually did not waste any time on the conversation, nor did he warn the enemy of his attack method in advance.
So, when Skaaro realized that something was wrong and wanted to command [Impact] to teleport to evade...
The cigarette butt with sparks on it had already collided squarely with the surface covered with a thick film of oil in mid-air due to Li Qing's precise and swift throwing.
boom!
Flames burst forth.
[Impact] The mountain-like body completely transformed into a huge torch, and the blazing red flames shot up into the sky.
"ah!!"
Then, Skayaro let out a painful wail.
The damage suffered by the Stand will be immediately fed back to the Stand user's body.
As the giant shark burned in the kerosene, Skayaro felt as if he had fallen into a sea of fire, with black and red burn marks all over his body.
He instinctively wanted to order [Impact] to teleport to the sea to put out the fire, but the intense pain of being burned by the flames seriously disturbed his mind and destroyed his control over the stand.
The stand-in is the embodiment of the original body's spiritual energy. If the mind cannot be concentrated, the stand-in will quickly get out of control.
At this moment, the huge [Shock] is like a mad, dying whale:
It completely lost control and, like its owner who was trembling in pain, began to roll wildly and unconsciously on the sea.
soon…
Scylla's spirit collapsed in agony.
He could no longer maintain the existence of [Impact], let alone its huge size.
The terrifying giant shark that was dominating the ocean and swallowing up the world just a few seconds ago disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
All that was left were the waves rising in the air, the raging flames that had not yet burned out, and the azure water reflecting the blazing red light.
Flames covered the sea and the waves were surging.
Li Qing felt nothing in his heart, and even wanted to light another cigarette for himself.
