Chapter 137 How to Use Word Spirits
On a rainy night, there is a bridge across the river on the city highway.

Jiude Mai slid backward, and Glock bullets poured towards the man in black robe.

Although Mai was confident in the accuracy of his bullets, he did not expect to defeat the enemy with just this one magazine of bullets.

The current situation is that she is in the light, while the other party is in the dark. The other party knows her words and is likely to know that her current state is not very good. But she knows nothing about the other party.

She just wanted to use the intervals between these shots to create a certain distance between her and the other party, and finally try out what the other party's words were.

But the man in black robe was not panicked at all. He avoided the dense bullets with a few nimble moves.

Dodging ordinary pistol bullets is not a difficult task for a professionally trained hybrid, but the opponent dodged the rain of bullets with ease, as if he was quite confident in his physical skills and was sure that Mai could not hit him.

Could it be a word spirit that strengthens the body?
Baka, you shouldn't have used up all the mercury bullets just now!
Mai took a deep breath, immediately put the knife back to his thigh with his right hand, took out another Glock from his waist and shot at the opponent, while his left hand took advantage of this brief gap to reload the bullet with one hand.
"Bang bang bang bang bang..."

"It's useless." The man in black robe said amid the violent gunshots, "You can't hit me."

"Oh, oh, you have to let me try. How can I know if I don't try, right?" Mai said, "Do you want me to have a gun instead of a knife? Wouldn't that make me look stupid?"

Mai's tone was still so nonchalant, but she knew in her heart that the other party was an extremely dangerous opponent.

"But you've done enough stupid things."

The man in black robe said calmly, "You are very beautiful, and I like you very much. I don't know where you learned about this person. But if you pretended that you knew nothing, 'He' would not take such a big risk and force you into the Nibelung. But you insisted on investigating this matter..."

"…So don't blame me. You buried your own possibilities with your own hands!"

The moment the words fell, there was a sudden whistling sound in the wind. Mai didn't realize what was happening, but her instinctive reaction to the danger made her quickly throw away the pistol in her hand and immediately pull out the two knives from both sides of her thighs.

"Bang, bang, bang", three sharp collision sounds came from in front of her. Mai crossed the knife and protected it in front of her. The constant shock from her hands made her palms feel painful as if they were torn apart, and even her arms felt severely numb.

The recoil from the shock was so great that Mai took two steps back before he could dissipate the force of the shock.

Only after making sure that the sense of danger had disappeared did Mai put away the two swords.

She was gasping for breath. Mercury poisoning had severely reduced her body functions. Any movement that required mobilizing muscles would consume a lot of her energy.

Mai looked at the ground in front of her.

The mottled and deformed bullet heads scattered in front of him. They were 9mm caliber bullets from a Glock pistol!

Mai narrowed his eyes and looked up at the black-robed man in front of him to confirm that he did not see him pull out a gun.

"You must be curious, why did I fire these bullets when I didn't pull out the gun, right?"

"It's your own bullet!"

The black-robed man seemed to smile under the huge hood, and explained like a villain in an anime who was about to win:

"Word spirits are actually a very wonderful thing. Each word spirit has a completely different use, and as long as it is controlled properly, it can achieve completely different effects. But you lowly half-bloods only know how to use them in a big way."

"For example..." the man in black robe said, stepping lightly on a bullet head in front of him with his toes, "... like this!"

Mai was startled and turned her head subconsciously. The bullet almost grazed her cheek. She wiped her face with the back of her hand, and the light blood stains spread on the back of her hand, like cinnabar being blown away on a painting.

"What kind of words are these?" Mai asked.

"Guess." The man in black robe spread his hands and gently stepped forward. With three "bangs", two more bullets were blocked by the double swords raised by Mai. The other bullet flew past Mai's proud thigh.

"Your knife seems to be very good. After you die, I will keep it for you." said the man in black robe.

"No thanks." Mai shrugged, "I prefer to keep my own things."

"That depends on whether you have the ability to do so."

The man in black robe said, "By the way, the trick you just created should have been discovered by those deadpools. They are probably on their way back now."

"It's easy." Mai said, "I just need to defeat you before they get back."

The black-robed man chuckled: "How shameless of you to say that."

Mai moved quickly, holding the knife in a cross shape in front of her. The ink-like smoke once again covered her whole body and hid her. "Do you want to use the dark light to conceal your vision?"

The black-robed man said calmly, "Unfortunately, the alchemical field of the Dark Illumination expands with the caster as the center. This means that you are always at the center of the Dark Illumination. As long as you aim at the end, you can--"

The man in black robe stepped on the ground around him step by step, like a girl doing hopscotch.

With every step he took, bullets from the surrounding rain would madly shoot towards Ma Yi in the dark light.

Mai's muscles stretched all over her body, and veins appeared on her slender white arms.

The next moment, a knife shadow flashed, and the lightless blade hidden in the dark light danced in an arc like a full moon in front of Mai.

She actually wanted to cut off the bullets flying towards her by swinging her two swords quickly.

The "ping pong pong" sound is the metal collision sound of the blade and the bullet.

The material of Mai's blade seems to be very hard. Facing the alloy bullet flying at a speed faster than the speed of sound, the blade can actually withstand it intact.

What is even more surprising is that Mai's slender body can burst out with such tremendous strength. After catching so many bullets, her hands can still hold the handle of the knife tightly.

"Exquisite swordsmanship."

Hearing the sharp sound of metal collision, the man in black robe sighed and then shook his head.

"It's a pity that it's just a death struggle. Perhaps in your prime, you could have perfectly taken all the bullets? Unfortunately, the mercury has now penetrated deep into your internal organs, and your physical strength can't support you to continue taking them."

Just like what the man in black robe said, as Mai's poisoning worsened and her strength decreased drastically, her swordsmanship had begun to show flaws.

A bullet passed through the gap between the sword shadows and grazed Mai's shoulder.

She paused as another bullet flew towards her and grazed her calf.

Mai groaned in pain and half-crouched on the ground. Her remaining strength was no longer enough to support the activation of the Dark Light. The dark color that enveloped her disappeared like the wind.

"You are a worthy opponent."

The man in black robe looked down at Mai Yi and slowly approached her, his feet wading through the puddles.

"Tell me your name and I'll remember you."

"Why are you as impatient as those stinky men?" Mai propped up the ground with her knife and gasped for air. "I haven't lost yet, have I?"

"is it?"

The black shadow took a sudden step forward, and near the ground he passed, the sound of bullets breaking through the air rang out again.

"It's now!"

"what?"

The man in black was stunned, only to see Mai draw his sword to block again, and a sharp sound of metal collision was heard in the air.

Then he saw a dark shadow suddenly appear in front of him.

Before he could react, the inky black mist dissipated and a pistol emerged from the mist, with the muzzle pointed straight at him.

It was the Glock pistol that Mai had just thrown away! Mai had wrapped it with the Word Spirit at some point!
"You're right. Word spirits are actually a very wonderful thing. As long as they are controlled properly, they can achieve completely different effects."

As Mai spoke, a cloud of black ink swept through the air and quickly dispersed. A deformed bullet flew straight towards the Glock pistol.

"I don't know how you dodged those bullets. But at such a close distance, with this bullet aimed directly at your forehead, could you still dodge it?"

"Bang" sound!
The bullet hit the hammer of the pistol, and the 9mm bullet broke through the speed of sound and was fired out of the barrel.
