Chapter 300: Desperate Option
Otoishi Akira is definitely the most low-brow villain Li Qing has encountered since his debut.
He is 19 years old, an electric guitarist, and has been an unknown and mediocre person for the past 19 years of his life.
He was just an ordinary man until that arrow changed his fate.
Otoshi Akira gained the ability of a stand. This special ability beyond cognition made him, a "poor man suddenly rich", expand rapidly like fermented dough.
Therefore, Yin Shiming had a simple and pure ambition:
He wants to kill all those who pose a threat to him and become the king who rules the world.
This idea is as ridiculous as the babbling of a kindergarten child. Even those elementary school students who are struggling with whether to go to Tsinghua University or Peking University when they grow up are not as naive as him.
If in the past, Li Qing would have only smiled with disdain when hearing someone say such words in front of him.
But now, Li Qing couldn't laugh.
Because he discovered that this Yin Shiming... seemed to be really strong.
After absorbing the powerful electrical energy gathered from the town's power grid, the electric light and thunder on the spicy red pepper's body had become as agitated as an ocean swept by a storm.
The electric light kept flashing and blooming on its body, and the heat that escaped caused the temperature around it to rise dramatically.
This is the purest power that cannot be faked.
"Ha ha ha ha."
"This is the true power of my spicy red pepper!"
Otoshi Akira's triumphant laughter resounded across the battlefield through the mouth of Xinhong Lajiao:
"Now all the power of Morioh Town is concentrated on me—"
"I can easily tear you into pieces right now, turn you into charcoal, and let your burnt ashes fly away with the wind!"
“Not only that…haha…”
This poor guitarist who had never seen much of the world, after making these harsh words, added a punishment that he thought was extremely cruel:
"I also need to record the current that has just been collected into Dongfang's electric meter."
"All the electricity consumed by the town today will be paid for by your companions!"
“…”
Although he felt the situation was not good, Li Qing was inevitably shocked by Yin Shiming's pattern.
The corners of his mouth twitched for a while, and he couldn't help but say a few insults:
"The electricity bill for one day in Morioh Town...is a lot in your eyes?"
"Do you know who Higashikata Josuke's father is..."
"Mr. Joseph is a real estate tycoon in New York and the current head of the SPW Consortium—"
"Even if you calculate all the electricity bills in Japan, my partner will never go bankrupt!"
"W-what…"
A clear trace of shame and anger appeared on Xin Honglajiao's face.
Although Li Qing did not say anything unpleasant this time, the shame of being looked down upon by others was the most infuriating:
"Asshole, you damn bald guy!"
"You still dare to laugh at me at this time... You are courting death!"
The angry roar of Chili Pepper echoed through the streets.
Li Qing's muscles tensed instantly, and his perception was stimulated to the peak.
Because he could hear the uncontrollable murderous intent in the other party 's voice - the enemy was about to take action!
At this moment, Li Qing thought of a lot.
He is a man who is good at thinking, and this advantage has helped him create miracles of defeating the strong with the weak many times.
The strength of his enemies never discouraged him, but only made him use his wisdom to the utmost:
The weather, the terrain, the position and status of one's own side, the abilities and characteristics displayed by the enemy, and even the character weaknesses displayed by Otoishi Akira during the conversation...
Countless complex information gathered in Li Qing's brain and was quickly analyzed and processed.
He believed that he would be able to find hope through thinking as he had done before.
Then…
boom!
A small fist containing tremendous force appeared in front of Li Qing like a ghost.
There was still an extremely powerful electric light lingering on the fist. The terrifying electric current and the vast fist force merged into one, breaking through Li Qing's defense line like a flood.
There was no way to stop it, and no time to react.
Li Qing was hit in the chest by a punch, and a strong electric current hit him in an instant.
He didn't even have time to feel the muscle paralysis caused by the electric current before his body completely lost control in the face of the terrifying force.
Li Qing's bones and muscles were shattered and deformed at this moment, but fortunately with the protection of data, they were restored instantly.
At the same time, Li Qing inevitably flew backwards at a rapid speed.
His body smashed the courtyard wall behind him like a cannonball, and plowed a deep ditch in the solid ground.
Dust was flying and grass was falling.
Before Li Qing could climb out of the huge human-shaped pit, a scorching electric light flashed in front of him:
"Go to hell!"
The roar of spicy red peppers rings in my ears.
This time, Li Qing truly felt the chill brought by this voice:
"Damn... this speed, this power..."
“It’s already a level that I can’t even dream of reaching!”
Li Qing was shocked and subconsciously wanted to punch back.
However, due to the absolute speed difference, his iron fist that was powerful enough to split mountains and rocks was as powerless as a child's fight.
Xin Hong Lajiao just slapped it forward carelessly like slapping a fly, and the fist that contained all of Li Qing's strength was slapped away uncontrollably.
The next moment, Xin Hong Lajiao reached out and grabbed Li Qing's wrist. The huge force from her arm instantly controlled Li Qing's entire body:
"Are you laughing at me?... Is it a big deal to be rich?"
“How much money can an average person make in a month by working so hard?”
"In my opinion, Morioh Town's daily electricity bill is really high... Is there anything ridiculous about this?!"
The gnashing of teeth and scolding from Xin Hong Lajiao echoed all around like thunder.
It was already extremely angry, and this anger now completely transformed into pain inflicted on Li Qing :
"Go to hell!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xin Hong Lajiao easily picked up Li Qing from the ground as if he was a rag doll.
Li Qing tried hard to struggle, but he was simply unable to resist the force that was far beyond his imagination.
In the next moment, the terrifying fist wrapped in electric light rushed towards Li Qing's body like a storm phantom.
“Laugh…laugh!”
"Can you still laugh now?"
"I just want to rule the world, I want to become the strongest in the world—"
"And you, you piece of trash, are powerless to stop it!"
Along with this crazy shouting, the tsunami-like fist wind has already submerged Li Qing.
Forehead, cheeks, shoulders, chest...
Li Qing's flesh and blood corroded and deformed countless times in the lightning storm, and was restored to its original state countless times under the protection of data.
During this short and desperate process, his health value has plummeted like the continuous circuit breakers in the U.S. stock market.
"Damn... I can't resist this kind of power at all..."
"what to do?"
"Think...I have to think..."
Li Qing passively endured the suffocating fist shadow and lightning, his brain working non-stop:
The solution he came up with after thinking about it was -
There is no way!
There's no way to win this kind of crushing game!
The enemy's advantage is pure strength and speed. This inconceivable attribute gap is enough to make the king kneel before the bronze.
In the face of absolute power, any wisdom is useless.
Being bitten by such a mad dog with "six pieces of equipment at the maximum level", Li Qing could not escape no matter how well he operated.
"The difference in strength and speed is just too great."
"I was completely helpless in front of it. I couldn't even move a finger."
Li Qing's expression was extremely ugly:
He carefully examined all the cards he had, only to find that he had no way to do anything to the other party.
The only useful skill is the "Thunder Break/Broken Bones" which has a slowing effect, but the slowing effect of this skill is only 1 second. In that 1 second, Li Qing cannot effectively cause damage to the enemy who has an absolute advantage in strength.
What's worse is that... according to the monster speed that Chili Pepper is currently showing...
Even if it is slowed down by 50%, this monster will still be several times faster than Li Qing.
Faced with this kind of enemy that he is totally unmatched at this time, his best option is actually to use the Sky Sound Wave to escape.
But the situation is very early now, brother... There are two companions in the room behind him, and the Nijimura family.
The Nijimura brothers were both severely injured and it is too late to get treatment now. They are a complete burden.
As for Giorno and Polnareff, they might not be able to resist Chili Pepper's terrifying speed and strength.
Li Qing knew that if he ran away alone, his companions left behind would most likely die.
And... judging from the fact that Spicy Red Pepper could move quickly through the wires, Li Qing doubted that he would not be able to escape even if he used the Sky Sound Wave.
"What should I do...what should I do?"
"Am I really going to die at the hands of such a ridiculous third-rate villain?"
It was a pleasant journey to the Novice Village just a few minutes ago, but a few minutes later it turned into a desperate life and death situation.
But reality is so cruel and so absurd.
As a well-known New York real estate tycoon said:
Maybe, this is life.
Fate will always suddenly grab you by the throat at an unexpected moment. At this moment, no matter how much Li Qing thought, he could not suppress his blood bar which was dropping madly.
Soon, his health points dropped to an extremely dangerous level under the enemy's crushing bombardment.
Because of the extreme anger aroused by shame, Spicy Red Chili's attack not only did not slow down, but became faster and stronger in the pleasure of revenge.
If this continues, Li Qing will die soon.
There were only three options left before him:
1. The brave Li Qing suddenly came up with a way to fight back.
2. Companions come to rescue.
3. There is no escape, reality is cruel.
"The answer has always been 1."
"But now... I'm afraid I have to choose 3."
The fist, which was so fast that it was imperceptible, was still bombarding Li Qing's body.
At this moment, for the first time ever, Li Qing gave up thinking.
"At least try to delay it for a while..."
"Giorno, Polnareff, run away now!"
This was the only simple thought left in his mind.
However, at this moment...
“Lee Sin!!”
The silver sword light streaked across the sky like a meteor.
The silver chariot, which had already been stripped of its armor, burst out at its maximum speed, suddenly dragging a determined phantom in front of Li Qing.
In the collision of sword light and lightning, Polnareff's tall figure loomed in front of Li Qing like a mountain:
“Go!”
What a coincidence, Polnareff's idea coincides with Li Qing's:
"Take Giorno and leave quickly."
"Let me and the Silver Chariot block this place!"
