Chapter 554: 251: Ending the Battle Suddenly_2
At that instant, whether it was Seamer's flattened head or his severed body...
Both burst forth with massive amounts of thread-like substances, which rushed towards Number One furiously, like Corruption Tentacles.
On the entire battlefield, Hei and Zhou Baiyu saw endless thread-like substances enveloping Number One from all directions.
"So this is the 'thread' inside Seamer's body unique for stitching opponents?"
"From what it seems, as soon as this thread touches someone, it connects them to Seamer. It might not stitch immediately, but it will definitely affect the opponent."
Number One was not the Flame Emperor after all.
Originally, to get close to the Flame Emperor, Seamer had sacrificed all his chips accumulated over the years.
Because stitching required touching the opponent.
Also, because the Flame Emperor could easily burn through these stitching 'threads.'
Therefore, Seamer had to start by stitching Demonkind, gradually increasing his resistance to fire.
It was an exceedingly tedious process.
But Number One was different; he was just a human. Humans were afraid to make contact with him.
Number One indeed feared contact with Seamer.
But he was not pushed to a dead end. His great sword slipped from his hand, but he still had a dagger.
Even though Seamer's speed appeared like a horde of snakes striking to everyone else, it seemed too slow in Number One's eyes.
He began to swing the dagger constantly; due to the speed, it almost seemed as if he used clones.
Most crucially, Number One's weapons were extremely hot, visibly leaving a red-hot trail.
Flame, flame blade.
Zhou Baiyu was astounded but remembered that in this version, the Demon Emperor was still alive. Regardless, the Reversers raised by the seven Demon Emperors had some demonkind powers.
If it were Seamer from version 2.49, such a flame blade could not damage him at all.
But this is version 1.6.
Under Number One's extremely fast swinging, Seamer's stitching threads were almost all gone.
Seamer realized that he could not kill Number One.
The stupid backlash of 'Huang Miu' had exposed Seamer's strategic card, which originally could have relied on Number One's arrogance to deceive him.
But now, Number One had realized the 'infiltrative' nature of Seamer.
"Damn it! Damn it! Huang Miu, I'm going to kill you!"
Seamer gritted his teeth, not shouting out this sentence, but it was his real inner thought.
Now, he could only take advantage of Number One not having completely escaped the cage of stitching threads to reconstruct his body.
He was also formulating a second-round battle plan.
During this time, Zhou Baiyu was not idle either.
He decisively threw the Guang Tongchen joy dice.
Since he had used two endurance points to activate Absolute Moment for the first dice throw, now the dice only had one point of durability left.
When he spun the dice, Zhou Baiyu quickly saw the choices thrown by it.
[A: You will gain the ability of three positive mutations. But today, you can only use three mutations.]
[B: Remove your physical exhaustion when mutating, but your probability of positive mutation will significantly decrease.]
[C: Your next mutation will definitely involve Extreme Transformation. But in the next week, you will not be able to trigger Extreme Transformation.]
C!
Zhou Baiyu did not hesitate and decisively chose c.
"I'm already a third-tier Mutator, with a high probability of positive mutation. Option A is clearly inappropriate."
"The biggest problem when confronting Number One is that he is too fast, and very vigilant, not giving opponents the chance to react and counterattack, a high probability of negative mutation would just waste my time."
"I need an Extreme Transformation now."
Zhou Baiyu glanced around and noticed that there were no few items capable of mutation. Some props were also prepared on him.
But when he saw the piece of a mirror, he suddenly realized... What if he mutated the mirror?
Subconsciously, Zhou Baiyu held the diamond-shaped mirror shard in both hands.
Extreme Transformation was the highest realm pursued by Mutators.
Because the items resulted from mutation are often unreasonably overpowering.
In the few seconds of mutation, with extremely fast slashing, Number One had already burnt all the stitching threads.
But he did not immediately attack Seamer, instead, he watched warily to the side.
Suddenly, Number One felt a sense of crisis. So did Seamer.
Both, being immensely powerful demon-level existences, possessed top-notch crisis detection.
Suddenly, Seamer turned his head to look at Zhou Baiyu, and Number One also suddenly turned his head to look at Zhou Baiyu.
The two, who were just a second ago engaged in a life-and-death struggle, suddenly developed a kind of tacit understanding.
At that moment, Zhou Baiyu suddenly thought whether he should just change history and take them both out here and now.
But his first response was still to direct the mirror towards Number One.
After completely discarding a strategic card, Zhou Baiyu finally felt confident in confronting a formidable enemy.
[Item Name: Irreparable Mirror.]
[Property: Fragile. Durability 1/1.]
[Description: Cursing someone is quite a nasty act, but breaking a mirror is considered meticulous. There's a saying that broken pieces bring safety, but if you're going to break the mirror you're holding, make sure you are not in it; otherwise, it won't be safe, only safe in the ground.
Please aim the mirror at your opponent and then smash it, and you will see miracles happen.]
[Status: Can mutate, but not recommended.]
Zhou Baiyu roughly understood the mirror's capability, but he did not aim it at Number One because that action would only make Number One dodge the mirror with lightning speed.
So without delay, Zhou Baiyu said:
"Fang Dog! This person is trying to eat me!"
