Chapter 23: I've chosen you! Xia Mi!
On the overpass.
A black shadow lunged at the white light, but was instantly blasted away.
It looked as if light had once again triumphed over darkness.
After all, standing on the side of light is the legendary god-king Odin.
How could a human possibly defeat a god? That's simply overestimating one's own abilities.
Once again, the attack was repelled. Lu Mingfei's feet kicked through the overpass, creating two shallow ditches more than ten meters long before he finally came to a stop.
His black soft armor was now showing cracks that resembled a spider web.
He wasn't sure if the other party was the god-king from mythology, but his strength was definitely far superior to his own.
But for some reason, the god-king Odin maintained great restraint.
He simply stood still on his horse, letting Sleibnir, the eight-legged steed beneath him, thrash its head and eager to charge, while he held firmly to the reins and gave no order to charge.
It's like an NPC in a game who only knows how to passively retaliate.
But Lu Mingfei wouldn't really treat this as a game, nor would he treat the other party as a silly NPC who only knows how to follow instructions.
Because he could feel the tip of the spear, the one that was sure to hit the target, trembling slightly in the opponent's hand.
It looks like it will fly out at any moment.
In mythology, this spear is said to be a sure-hit spear, striking its target no matter where it is thrown.
"Give up, stop resisting in vain." The one-eyed knight spoke, slowly raising Gungnir, his voice cold and unyielding. "Submit to me, and I may spare your life."
Lu Mingfei stood up, his knees trembling slightly. Each violent movement seemed to tear at his wounds, causing a pile of black fragments to fall off.
These fragments turned into wisps of black smoke and dissipated upon landing, completely losing their vitality.
Lu Mingfei did not reply; he proved his choice with his actions, his figure flashing away.
A dark shadow suddenly lunged at the god, but the outcome was ultimately predetermined.
He was once again mercilessly swept away, this time crashing into the barriers on the overpass.
Even high-strength concrete could not withstand the impact, and instantly crumbled into pieces and fell down.
Lu Mingfei crashed through two barriers in succession, grabbed the ground with his fingers on the other side of the overpass, and finally came to a stop on the last barrier.
Seeing that the mortal before him was determined to oppose him, the one-eyed knight finally lost patience with his attempts at persuasion.
He simply turned his horse around and left, completely disregarding Lu Mingfei's life or death, and didn't even intend to throw Gungnir.
Perhaps in his view, given Lu Mingfei's situation, there was no need for him to use Gungnir.
The man and his horse disappeared in the white light, while Lu Mingfei stood up from the overpass on the other side.
A thick, black fluid gushed out from the shadow beneath him, instantly restoring his previously injured areas to their original state.
"Warm-up is over."
Lu Mingfei closed his eyes, then opened them again. His eyes were pitch black, and deep within his pupils, two golden flames burned.
A thick, black liquid enveloped him, and then a figure wearing dark, menacing armor appeared.
With a thought, several black tentacles extended from his back and rushed into the white light.
When they reappeared, the man and horse that had just left were dragged out, tightly bound.
"How could that be?"
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Before the one-eyed knight could even react, he had already returned to his starting point.
His expression was hidden by the mask, but a fierce glint suddenly appeared in his golden vertical pupil.
"Mortal, how dare you disturb the divine procession!" He brandished his spear, and a flash of white light shattered the black tentacles wrapped around him.
The fact that the other party could go to such lengths made him start to take it seriously.
He tightened the reins, and the eight-legged celestial horse raised its massive, wheeled, heavy-duty legs and slammed them to the ground with a roar.
Even the overpass was trembling at that moment.
This roar seemed to be a signal, and suddenly countless dark figures leaped out from both sides of the overpass.
Their bodies were covered by long black robes.
But what kind of normal human being could appear here?
The moment they landed, they quickly surrounded Lu Mingfei.
Then, beneath the hood, pairs of golden vertical pupils slowly rose.
"Deadpool." Lu Mingfei recognized them, but compared to the group he had encountered in the abandoned hospital, these guys in front of him were stronger and more dangerous.
"Flesh and blood...young...how many years..." Whispers rang out all around, these guys somehow still retained a trace of language ability.
But what greeted them was Lu Mingfei's excited, even joyful, eyes.
"Really..." He looked at the one-eyed knight and slowly said, "Thank you for bringing these blood packs."
Black tentacles suddenly bloomed from behind him like a peacock spreading its tail, and each Deadpool was given a corresponding tentacle, which instantly pierced into their bodies.
They, who could withstand car crashes, now seemed as fragile as paper.
Then, a substance representing the essence of their bodies was extracted, and in an instant, their bodies shrank to the size of paper.
power.
Power flowed through Lu Mingfei's body, a feeling so comfortable that he couldn't help but hum softly.
If Lu Mingfei was only in Gear 1 at the beginning, and Gear 2 when he unleashed his full potential, then he has now reached Gear 3.
Full gear!
The Lionheart is unleashed!
Lu Mingfei's body swelled several sizes, and the black outer armor he wore also became ferocious and terrifying.
The eight-legged celestial horse was shaking its head restlessly.
The hairless monkey in front of him suddenly seemed to have gained several levels of imposing presence. If its previous actions were an attempt to attack, now it was filled with nothing but the desire to flee.
The one-eyed knight sensed the panic in his mount, but he made no move, simply gripping the reins tightly.
Facing Lu Mingfei, whose strength had increased many times over, he merely made one move.
He raised the spear in his hand.
Gungnir, the sure-hit gun, seemed to sense something and was trembling uncontrollably.
Then he let go.
Gungnir flew in a perfect arc through the air, heading straight for Lu Mingfei, but was dodged to the side.
But this is not the end.
Instead, Gungnir, after missing its target, circled around and flew back.
The moment he threw the gun, Lu Mingfei's fate of being shot was sealed.
But Lu Mingfei had already pounced on the god-king "Odin".
……
The dark shadow collided with the white light again, but the situation had changed dramatically.
This time, it's not the white light representing light that defeats the evil shadow; instead, the situation is completely reversed.
The shadow tore through the white curtain in an instant, and the eight-legged winged horse let out a mournful cry, but it could not escape the fate of being dragged into the darkness.
Odin, the one-eyed man, was thrown from his horse and fell heavily to the ground, splashing a large puddle of water.
The tentacles bound him tightly from head to toe, making it impossible for him to move an inch.
But Lu Mingfei did not press his advantage; instead, a bad feeling crept into his heart.
Is this all the legendary Odin, the king of the gods, could possibly possess? This is completely contrary to mythology.
But the current situation left Lu Mingfei no time to think. He turned around, and Gungnir was already flying towards him at high speed.
In desperation, he grabbed the eight-legged celestial horse from the ground and used it as a shield in front of him.
However, facing its former companion, Gungnir didn't even try to dodge, and under the horrified gaze of the eight-legged Pegasus, it passed straight through its chest.
In an instant, scalding hot blood splattered on the ground, even evaporating the rainwater and sending up plumes of white steam.
With a mournful cry, the eight-legged celestial horse collapsed to the ground, its eight legs, which had resembled engines, now limply sprawled on the ground.
But Lu Mingfei felt no sorrow whatsoever for the eight-legged celestial horse sacrificing itself for him.
He has already set his sights on the next person who is ready to sacrifice himself for him.
"It's useless." Seemingly sensing Lu Mingfei's inner thoughts, the one-eyed knight, who was being pinned down, said coldly, "Once Gungnir is thrown, it won't stop until its mission is accomplished."
"Including standing in front of you, the master?" Lu Mingfei retorted.
The one-eyed knight remained silent, offering no reply, but his arm, still bracing itself against the ground, showed his refusal to accept his fate. However, this was clearly futile.
Because the black tentacle had pulled him in front of Lu Mingfei and blocked Gungnir's path as he stabbed Lu Mingfei.
"Alright, let me see if you'd still walk through like this if you were facing your master."
Lu Mingfei shielded Odin in front of him, holding his breath. However, what happened next clearly disappointed him greatly.
Even with this legendary god-king standing in his way, Gungnir still passed through.
The seemingly indestructible armor was torn apart by the spearhead as easily as paper.
Gungnir pierced through the one-eyed knight's right chest, the tip of the spear still stained with the knight's hot blood. At that moment, Lu Mingfei had already manipulated the tentacles, leaping more than ten meters away.
The moment Lu Mingfei saw Gungnir slow down, he knew that even if Odin stood in front of him, the other party would still continue to advance without mercy. The only difference was whether the body of this legendary strongest being in the Nine Realms would become the strongest shield, creating a contradiction with Gungnir.
But it is clear that this Odin may just be an imposter, as he was unable to even resist or dodge when faced with Gungnir's approach.
Gungnir was rapidly closing in from behind. Even though Lu Mingfei had pushed his speed to the limit, the distance between them was still gradually decreasing.
You can't go in a straight line anymore!
Lu Mingfei made a sharp turn. If he continued to flee on this straight elevated road, he would inevitably be caught. Now, he had no choice but to take a risky gamble.
He arrived at the edge of the overpass cliff, and without hesitation, he jumped off, then crawled down like a giant spider.
However, he soon realized that this was not a very good decision. The sides of the viaduct were covered with a dense swarm of Dead Servants, hanging silently beneath the bridge like a flock of bats.
Upon seeing Lu Mingfei approaching, the swarm of bats quickly stirred.
The dormant Deadpools were awakened, their eyes gleaming with a golden, menacing light. Like travelers who had been trekking through the desert for years without water and had suddenly spotted a source of water, they surged forward in droves.
Although they were like free blood packs delivered to Lu Mingfei's doorstep, he didn't have time to deal with them right now, as Gungnir was getting closer and closer.
Lu Mingfei charged through the Deadpool group like an octopus.
Some Deadpools who didn't have time to dodge were directly hit by Gungnir and strung together like a string of blood gourds.
What to do!?
At this critical moment of life and death, Lu Mingfei's mind raced.
But just then, the black fluid that had spread out suddenly sent him a message:
One of the Deadpool members is acting strangely.
It neither chased after Lu Mingfei like the other Deadpools, nor did it remain in hibernation. Instead, it lingered on the periphery of the Deadpool group, seemingly observing something.
Could it be a hidden boss?
However, the situation was critical at the moment, and Lu Mingfei didn't have time to think too much. This abnormal Deadpool might be an opportunity, and he made a decision in an instant, turning around and rushing back into the group of Deadpools.
At this moment, Gungnir also circled around. It didn't seem to be in a hurry to catch up with Lu Mingfei, but maintained a distance that was neither too close nor too far. It seemed that if it wanted to, it could take Lu Mingfei's life in an instant.
So the man and his spear fought their way through the Deadpool horde, until everyone was on the verge of collapse. Only then did the special Deadpool, hidden at the edge, realize something was wrong and tried to slip away unnoticed.
However, Lu Mingfei had already arrived in front of it, and with tentacles like an octopus, he wrapped it up and threw it into the path that Gungnir was bound to take behind him.
What bad luck!
Xia Mi, disguised as Deadpool, secretly felt annoyed.
She had only noticed the opening of the Nibelungen at Shilan Middle School and wanted to come in to find out which of her brothers and sisters was behind this trick.
But to my surprise, I didn't see a single dragon after entering. Instead, I saw Odin from mythology and a black-armored man who looked like a villain.
She originally intended to quietly observe the battle between the two, hoping to find out who was behind their facades.
After all, they are the only ones in the world who possess this ability.
Her loving brothers and sisters.
But who would have thought that the man in black armor would become aware of her presence at this moment?
Before she could even think about why she was so unlucky, the beautiful girl Xia Mi, who had accidentally wandered into the Nibelungen, began her journey to save herself.
Although she was the weakest of her siblings, she was still the Dragon King.
Xia Mi's eyes, hidden in her black robe, gradually hardened.
She closed her eyes and then opened them again, her crimson-gold pupils seeming to burn with flames.
Everything in the world seemed to transform in her eyes, with dense lines everywhere, crisscrossing and intersecting to form points.
Got you!
Xia Mi looked at Gungnir, who was so close at hand, and suddenly threw a punch.
