Chapter 1289 Return Of The Pirates (19)(Chapter Preview)

The contest continued.

Snow's approach gradually showed results ...

Even though the Vikings had robust physiques and excellent resistance, they were unable to withstand the frequent 'liver strikes' without suffering damage.

If the Vikings had chosen to engage in close combat with snow, he would have won long ago.

However, he did not do so ...

Just as Feng bujue had said, the Vikings wanted to fight 'beautiful boxing'. Not only did they want to win, they also wanted to prove that they were better than their opponents in terms of technique.

This ... Was a kind of arrogance, but it was not too much.

The Vikings knew very well that they were a boxing genius; Putting aside his Well-Tempered technique ... His 'instinct' to instantly see through the opponent 's' distance 'was something that ordinary people couldn't touch.

Therefore, he had always thought that it was only natural for him to make appropriate concessions in the game.

This was what he meant when he gave his "Mirror Shield" a chance for his opponent to make one last attack.

Right now, he had already played a match, and he was going to play against snow again. Moreover, even after the other party had used such an ugly method, he still did not give up on his principles ... That was also what he meant.

This was his resolve as an expert, the most fundamental principle to him. Even if he lost here today, this principle would not be shaken.

Pfff pfff pfff

"Quite stubborn ..." Snow pressed himself against the Viking, his fist still pounding on his liver."From the way you're walking, you've clearly been affected ..."

"Ha ..." The Viking laughed."So what?"

"Tsk ... What an infuriating reaction ..." Snow said unhappily."I've put down my dignity, used such extreme methods, and worked hard until now ... And you're responding to me with this attitude?"

"Hmph...You're right ..." The Viking sneered and muttered."I'm not that obsessed with winning. If I can't use my 'overwhelming technique' to defeat my opponent, then victory has no meaning to me...Just like today, if you were the one who won, I wouldn't mind. Because I didn't lose to' boxing ', but to your embarrassing' tactics '."

After hearing this, snow fell silent for a moment. Then, he stopped hitting and took a few steps back.

"What?" The Vikings didn't rush forward to attack, but instead asked,"what?" Are you finally ready to fight me fair and square?"

"Upright?" Snow repeated those four words. His eyes and tone became very cold."Your boxing is called 'upright', and what I've done so far is 'sneaky and slippery'?"

"Ha!" The Viking spread his arms wide and laughed in reply."Isn't that so?"

…………

"That's right! You're just a cunning kid!"

"It's a good thing you still have some self-awareness!"

"It's not just cheating, it's simply despicable and shameless!"

The surrounding Pirates had also heard the conversation between snow and the Vikings, and immediately started cursing.

…………

"Stop joking, you bastard!" Unexpectedly, snow, who had always been very gentlemanly, shouted at this moment,"close combat is a very common tactic in regular boxing matches. How can this be called sneaky? Is it only fair and square if I use the mode you're best at to attack you?"

The Viking was taken aback by the question, and after a few seconds, he replied."Well ... Indeed, getting close is also a skill ... It's not a foul ..."

"Also ... What do you mean by 'the obsession to win is not that strong'..." Snow was unwilling to give up and continued,"people like you who hold the idea of 'no matter if you win or lose, as long as you can play beautifully'... Don't deserve to win at all!"

"What?" The Vikings were also bewildered."You're saying I'm not worthy of victory?" He laughed drily."Ha ... Then do you think your dirty boxing skills are qualified to win?"

"Of course!" At this point, promise's posture changed as well. It was as if he was about to attack."No matter how you belittle this kind of boxing ... You can say it 'ugly' or 'dirty'... It's still boxing! The 'gorgeous boxing' used by geniuses and the 'practical boxing' used by the weak were the same ... The weak were unable to defeat the other party in the field of geniuses, so they abandoned the gorgeous style that they also liked, and even abandoned their dignity ... Only to use victory to prove their strength and hard work.

"How can you understand the feelings of the weak ... The goal that they can't achieve in their entire lives is easily achieved by those with talent; And you, a talented person, are still saying things like 'victory has no meaning to you'... This is simply preposterous!"

"Tsk ... What a bunch of twisted logic ..." The Viking snorted."It's my freedom to fight in whatever mood I'm in. If you can't stand me, then come and beat me ..." He paused."Regretfully ... You weaklings can't beat me, right? Since that was the case, why not show some self-awareness of the weak? Instead of using those so-called 'practical boxing' to do some boring experiments, why don't you use your 'gorgeous boxing' and be defeated by me beautifully ... It'll be more satisfying. "

"The self-awareness ... Of the weak ..." Snow mumbled and then sneered."Ha ... Alright, I'll let you see the self-awareness of the weak."

After he finished speaking, a murderous look appeared in his eyes.

The Vikings also sensed something, and regrouped into a battle formation.

At that moment, Snow's body moved quickly ...

"A combo, huh ... And a combo of more than four punches, with room for variations ..." The Viking had already tested out his opponent's "distance", and had also swiftly determined his opponent's move."Hmm...It's not much of a threat to me ..." He muttered inwardly."But it's still better than close combat. At least it's more interesting to neutralize such an attack."

As he thought of this, Snow's first punch had already arrived.

Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang

"Two stabs ... All the way ..." The Viking's Heart was incomparably calm. In that split second, he had already caught on to his opponent's next punch."Next is ... An uppercut from the chin!"

Huuuu

His judgment was correct. Snow had indeed thrown that punch.

The Viking took half a step back, easily avoiding the attack. "There's a problem with the speed of this punch ... Which means ... It's not over yet ... He hid a straight punch at the end."

Snow's actions were completely within the opponent's expectations. After the hook, he raised his right hand back with all his might ...

"Hah.....After all, he's still a weakling ....." Facing this final blow, the Viking appeared relaxed, his train of thought clear and unhurried."This is a terrible habit that most second-rate boxers can never change., Whenever they use a combo with a large number of punches, and in the final one or two punches, they would throw out a 'telephone punch'(i.e. A punch that doesn't contain any concealment or feints;"Most ordinary people's punches are like this. Before the punch is thrown, the movement of the arm and the body has clearly predicted the path of the punch ... For professional boxers, this is like 'calling', with enough time to' pick up '. This almost instinctive movement may not be corrected with a lot of training, because muscle memory can be trained ... But some people's brains just can't keep up ..."

When the Vikings saw that 'telephone punch', they decided to end the match here.

His method was also very simple. He took a step forward and slashed out an interception that arrived first despite being launched later.

Under the premise that he had already seen through the path of the opponent's next punch, this was the most effective and most visually-worthy way to break the move.

This "one-shot KO" was the strategy that the Vikings had always pursued and implemented ...

Huuuu

The Viking swung his fist.

It was as if he could already see snow falling to the ground, as if he could already hear the lines that announced his victory.

However, at this moment, a shocking change occurred ...

"What!" This was the first time the Vikings had ever shouted out this word in their 47 matches on deck.

That was because ... His confident KO punch had missed.

Snow's "telephone fist" was real and not a fake move. Perhaps Feng bujue, who had zero-time difference, could follow up with such a complicated 'trap' after the combo, but Snow's ability was clearly not enough to support him in completing such a move.

But ... Snow was still not hit. This was because ... Just as the other party's fist was about to land on him, and at the same time that his "telephone fist" had already exerted its strength, he had done something that normal people couldn't do, forcing him to take a step back.

It sounded like something insignificant, but in fact ... It was an action that was infinitely close to "impossible." The difficulty was equivalent to turning his right hand clockwise while turning his right foot counterclockwise.

It was also because of this that he threw out an "impossible" punch and retaliated while retreating.

What was originally just a telephone punch that had been attacked later and hit first had become an amazing and unbelievable punch in just one "step."

If he were to dismantle this movement, it would be a counterattack aimed at the counterattack. From this, it could also be determined that all his previous combos were likely to be part of the trap, including the preparation movements of this punch.

But ... Did he really think that much?

No...

That step back, that stroke of genius that was almost impossible to achieve with normal brain operation, was actually ... Caused by his title ability.

[Follower] title ability:

[Name: flash (do your best)]

Special ability Type: Active

Consumption: 100 stamina points

[Effect: when activated, the body will automatically Dodge all attacks that can theoretically be dodged (Duration: 5 seconds, Cooldown: 1 hour)]

[Remark: I don't recommend you use it when you're facing a concentrated attack because it might cause you to suffer more damage than the attack itself.]

Snow's title was undoubtedly obtained by leveling up with the studio's training brothers for a long time. Therefore, the ability of this title was a bit of a scam.

Although this skill didn't consume a lot of energy and the effect was "beautiful," it was a bit terrible to use in reality ...

For example ... If snow activated [must Dodge (do his best)] when he was being shot by a machine gun, he might not be able to Dodge all the bullets, but his body would probably twist and become seriously injured.

However, in this kind of battle, this skill was the key to turning the tables.

Other than the three players, no one else knew that before the battle began, Feng bujue, who could see through his teammates 'data, had already set up-strategy based on this title skill ...

Snow's mediocre title skill was the foundation of all tactics.

Brother Jue and snow were both clear that 'close combat' would not solve the problem. If the Vikings were to fly into a rage and fight snow, snow would lose quickly. Even if the other party continued to endure, he might still be able to grab a normal chance to KO.

Therefore,"close combat" was just a means to create an illusion.

Snow had been busy for a long time. He didn't want to use the method of "draining energy" to win, but to use this method to set a trap for his opponent ...

An ordinary trap would be useless against the Vikings. In front of a true expert like him, ordinary tricks would be useless, and any form of provocation would be futile.

All of these ... Had been proven in actual combat.

To fool the Vikings, he had to put in more effort in areas other than boxing, for example ... Acting.

Snow's final performance was naturally in the plan. His passionate speech wasn't something that came out of his feelings (he had never been a weakling)... Instead, it was a foreshadowing for a "change in playstyle".

Under such circumstances, if snow suddenly assumed an offensive stance, the Vikings would assume that his actions were "driven by emotion," and wouldn't feel any unnaturalness.

The Vikings ... Would no longer consider the possibility of 'this man knocking me down with a beautiful punch'. This was because they had a general understanding of Snow's skill level from their previous entanglement. The endless "close combat" not only wore down the Viking's stamina, but it also wore down his guard against snow.

All the conditions were in place, and snow rushed forward.

After activating [absolute Dodge (do your best)], Snow's body was controlled by two forces. Snow's mind controlled his body to attack, while the power of the skill was responsible for controlling his body to Dodge.

No matter how brilliant and stealth...The Vikings would not necessarily be unable to see through a normal technique. However, snow 's' left and right hand-to-hand combat (drawing a circle with one hand and a square with the other)'was something the Vikings had never experienced before, and could not predict.

As a result, the man, who had not lost 46 battles, fell helplessly under this marvelous "retreating counterattack".

At this moment, the deck was completely silent.

The three players were also holding their breaths and watching, praying ... Hoping that this group of NPCs did not see that snow had "used a skill"
