Chapter 29 This is also in my plan
He keenly observed that as the pieces of meat squeezed and entangled more and more vigorously, the "green strip" above Li Qing's head was getting shorter and shorter.
It's like the health bar floating above the character's head in a video game.
"Could it be..."
"Does this represent his vitality?"
Giorno roughly guessed the meaning of the health bar above Li Qing's head, but immediately saw from the constantly decreasing health that the situation was not good:
Li Qing’s health seems to be insufficient.
When he was escaping from the woods, more than half of his blood was worn away by this damn piece of meat.
Fortunately, there were other people helping to attract hatred during the one minute or so he spent escaping to the bus, so he was able to rely on his own 0.5%/s life recovery to slowly restore his health back to the safe line of 80%.
But this is still not enough.
After all, this piece of meat is no longer the same piece of meat as it was a minute ago.
Just over a minute ago, this monster was probably no bigger than a pig.
And now, after devouring the energy of the bus engine, it has expanded to the size of a car.
Being restrained, squeezed, and swallowed by this huge monster, Li Qing certainly didn't feel very good.
82%…61%…42%…
His health began to drop at an exaggerated rate.
Finally, at the critical moment when his health dropped to a pitiful 30% and he would die if he held on for two more seconds, Li Qing took action:
"Echo Shot!!"
His body quickly transformed into an elusive "virtual body" and in an instant he broke free... no... ignored the restraint of the piece of meat.
Li Qing's body directly penetrated through the tough and thick flesh and blood, and soared into the sky at an extremely exaggerated speed.
Needless to say, the target of his attack was naturally the fat pigeon that he had branded at the very beginning.
"I see!"
Giorno understood Li Qing's plan.
Li Qing is quite busy now, so Giorno helps out as a part-time commentator:
"The ability he's using now is the same one he used when he first boarded the bus."
"At that time, he was able to ignore the obstruction of the carriage shell and directly pass through the wall. Now, he can also use this to break free from the restraints of the meat!"
At this time, the piece of meat also reacted.
The speed of Li Qing's Echo Blast was faster than a high-speed train moving at full speed, but this monster that could not be understood by common sense suddenly burst out with a terrifying speed that was not inferior to Li Qing's.
It suddenly contracted its flesh and blood, turning itself into rubber and a spring, and then, using the powerful elastic potential energy accumulated in its own flesh and blood, it suddenly bounced into the air.
"it's useless!"
Giorno shook his head subconsciously:
"Even if it could catch up with Mr. Bald in mid-air, it couldn't stop Mr. Bald from escaping."
"Because in this state of charge, his body is absolutely 'empty' and cannot be restrained."
The fact is just as Giorno thought:
The piece of meat, whose speed had no upper limit, had an amazing bounce force and with one leap it caught up with Li Qing who had taken off into the air in mid-air.
However, this did not work.
It was like a monkey trying hard to catch the reflection of the moon in the water. It finally managed to slap its tentacles onto Li Qing's body , but immediately passed through the empty reflection in the water.
Li Qing's figure that soared into the sky was not affected at all, except for a slight loss of blood volume.
His health was only 22% left.
But it doesn’t matter, because the piece of meat can no longer catch up with Li Qing.
Yes, even if its speed was definitely faster than Li Qing, it could not keep up with Li Qing like it did when it caught up with the bus from the woods.
because…
"You can't fly?!"
"Ha ha ha ha…"
Li Qing laughed out loud with relief:
"A piece of meat is just a piece of meat. No matter how fast you are, you can't grow wings!"
"You can't catch up to me who is soaring straight up just by relying on your jumping ability!"
This is the core of his escape plan.
His escape target was not the land, but the sky where the piece of meat could never catch up.
Li Qing had just risked his life as bait in order to buy time for the fat pigeon so that it could fly higher and farther.
At this moment…
A fat pigeon with the Tianyinbo mark on its body was flying at a height of about 150 meters in the air.
Li Qing, who soared into the sky with the help of the echo strike, has already reached a height of about 60 meters.
Although the bloated piece of meat had an incredibly strong bouncing power, it exhausted all of its kinetic energy after successfully touching Li Qing once, and entered a state of free fall under the influence of gravity at a distance of about 40 meters.
"I used the Stand ability of 'Hollow' to escape into the air. It not only helped me to lure away the monster, but also allowed me to escape the pursuit safely."
"What a perfect escape plan..."
Giorno on the ground sighed sincerely.
However, just as he was feeling relieved for Li Qing, something went wrong.
The piece of meat that was originally falling suddenly twitched violently, and it began to wriggle and deform rapidly in mid-air at an extremely terrifying speed.
It is like a dough, which is round and big at first, but now suddenly becomes long and wide under the "kneading and pulling" of a huge force.
Then, it suddenly stopped its falling trend and soared a long distance into the sky.
This is not because the piece of meat grew wings, but because it "threw" itself into the sky.
Yes…
It used its flexible body as a slingshot, and then used part of its body as a bullet, and shot it rapidly towards Li Qing in the sky.
An ordinary creature would definitely die if it lost half of its volume of flesh and blood, but this piece of meat would not.
It has no organs, no bones, no brain, just a vicious, twisted mass of flesh.
Therefore, even if half of its flesh and blood were discarded as a tool, it could still survive.
that's all…
The part of the meat that was thrown away like a "slingshot" fell downwards weakly after being separated from the main body.
When it falls to a certain distance from the main body, the part away from the main body turns into ashes in the air.
As for the other part, the piece of meat that was ejected as a "bullet" was currently chasing towards Li Qing in the sky at a terrifying speed.
It's very fast.
Even though Li Qing was still in the high-speed charge state of Echo Slam, he had no way to escape the pursuit of this terrifying piece of meat.
“Damn it…”
"It can actually act like a three-stage booster rocket. When its kinetic energy is exhausted, it can provide upward thrust to the "warhead" as the main body one stage at a time!"
Li Qing couldn't help but be shocked.
And he also realized the cruel reality—he was about to be caught up.
To make matters worse, he only had 22% of his health left.
As a high-level player who often shows off his opponent's health at a low level, Lee Sin has a very accurate grasp of his own health.
This 22% of health was actually the insurance health he left behind after he understood the fat pigeon's height and estimated the subsequent damage from falling from a high altitude.
If it was a few percent less, even if the piece of meat didn't swallow Li Qing, he would most likely die from falling from a high altitude.
This means…
At this moment, Li Qing’s health cannot be reduced at all.
As long as the piece of meat touched his body, he would have lost.
This is basically a dead end.
Because Li Qing is still in the charge state of Echo Slam, in this state, he can't control himself.
He could only watch as the piece of meat shot up into the sky like a rocket and quickly approached his body.
The next moment, the piece of meat that was shooting up was about to catch up with Li Qing.
He is going to die soon.
unless…
Unless something faster suddenly appears and attracts the attention of the walking meat.
However, to suddenly find an object in the sky, in such a short time, that is faster than the echo punch...
this…
Is it possible?
…
Of course it is possible!
"Although the way you, a monster, chased me was a little surprising, but the fact that you caught up with me in the air..."
Li Qing was extremely nervous and excited:
"But it's also in my plan!"
Giorno didn't notice, and the brainless piece of meat was even less likely to notice. Only Li Qing noticed:
A voice that enveloped the heavens and the earth had already resounded in the sky.
The sound was overwhelming, covering almost half of the city.
Just when Li Qing was about to be caught up by the piece of meat, the tsunami-like sound wave just reached its peak.
"That is..."
Giorno on the ground finally turned his attention away from the battlefield, away from Li Qing and the meat.
He finally noticed the mysterious object that was flying over the city at high speed and low altitude, emitting this manic sound wave:
"That's what's been flying over Naples these days..."
"Supersonic fighter!"
