Chapter 249 Significant Changes in Combat Power and Mentality

Germain slowly took off his tricorn hat and put it in his arms to prevent it from falling.

Then, he naturally lowered his black-gloved hands, which were bare except for the light of the leather.

At the same time, the meat saw, the shotgun, the flamethrower, the Kaiten cannon, the spiral cane and the sword Chikage all hovered around Germain, like a multitude of stars surrounding the moon.

Silva looked at this scene and slightly widened his eyes.

This is...

A terrifying magnanimity and precise control. I'm afraid his magnanimity is above all of us.

It is also because of this that he can achieve this kind of fusion of the materialization system, the transformation system and the operation system.

However, it seems that they still cannot leave Germain too far. It should be that if they exceed a certain distance, they will not be able to continue to maintain this materialization state.

Therefore, as long as they keep a distance, they can limit the use of his abilities to the maximum extent...

Wait, there is something wrong.

Silva narrowed his eyes and saw the abnormality again.

Among the many weapons hovering around Germain, a long object appeared, divided into five sections, and only one section accumulated a little blue.

Some kind of progress bar?

It doesn't look like time, because it doesn't grow continuously.

Then it can only be a battle superposition. The most significant difference between just now and now is that the two of us are out of the battle.

Out of the battle, that thing will not accumulate. In the battle, it is probably a local competition of mind energy, and the difference will be counted on the progress bar.

In other words, as long as my mind energy is more than his mind energy at a single point... It's easier said than done.

Accumulation is definitely unstoppable, it can only be slowed down.

If the battle goes on for a long time, there should be a situation that is extremely unfavorable to me.

However, if you want to make a quick decision, it is easy to fall into his trap, which will accelerate the accumulation of the progress bar...

At this time, Silva remembered the rules set by Netero in advance.

In addition to actively admitting defeat, is going out of bounds considered a defeat?

Perhaps, I can use this point.

Silva's eyes condensed and made a decision.

He raised his hands, palms facing Germain, and condensed two head-sized bullets.

Then, Shiba pushed them and shot them at Germain.

"Puff--"

Germain's body did not move, and the threaded staff suspended above his head suddenly stretched out, turning in the air like a long snake, and pierced the two bullets with a hiss!

"Bang, bang--"

The chain explosions were like thunder.

However, Germain, who was concentrating, soon noticed that the two bullets were just appetizers, and then appeared in front of him was a rain of bullets.

Densely packed!

Shiba kept pushing his palms forward like a sumo wrestler.

And every time he pushed, a bullet the size of a head was shot out and hit Germain.

More than 20 bullets densely covered the entire area where Germain was.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang--"

Another series of explosions, and they continued, and the entire area was bombed beyond recognition!

Swoosh——

German dodged away from the area, circled halfway, and then took the initiative to approach Silva.

Meat saws, shotguns, and other tools followed him all the time, forming an attack and defense formation.

Although close combat with the materialization and release systems is disadvantageous in textbooks, this is, after all, a practice battle that is more practical.

According to their own situation, close combat between German and Silva is more conducive to accumulating advantages.

However, Silva immediately ran away from German, and continued to shoot a rain of mind bullets in the direction of German while keeping a distance.

A wonderful scene appeared.

German chased Silva, and from time to time he used the suspended materialization weapon to smash the mind bullets shot at him, or dodged directly.

And Silva kept avoiding close combat, constantly keeping a distance and using mind bullets to fight back.

What did Silva want to do?

German soon noticed Silva's intention.

He was being forced to the boundary set by Netero little by little by Silva's dense mind bullets.

As long as he goes out of bounds, he loses.

Using the rules to win? This is also a good way.

So, German did not attack Silva deliberately, but rushed to the center of the basin.

Silva continued to use telekinesis, but German moved around the center of the basin and could not force him out of this area, let alone force him out of the border.

He sighed secretly.

He saw through my intention so quickly, and it should be very anxious next... No, that's not right... I should say that it ends here.

Silva noticed that German's floating five-stage gas tank had accumulated two blue bars.

Not only attack, as long as the local gas volume of defense exceeds the local gas volume of my attack, will the difference also be counted in the gas tank accumulation?

It was just like watching a noose tighten around my neck, but there was no sharp weapon in my hand to cut it.

It really ended here.

Silva suddenly stopped, lowered his hands, and dispersed his telekinesis.

"Stop, Germain. There's no point in fighting any further..."

"I give up."

Germain was a little surprised, but he stopped.

He slowly dispersed his Qi, and when the hunter badge hanging around his neck disappeared, all the equipment that materialized also disappeared, including the Qi tank.

However, from now on, the progress of his Qi tank will be saved.

When he manifests the Hunter Emblem next time, the energy tank will still maintain the two-stage accumulated progress, but it will be slightly reduced by a small amount.

Germain became confused. He hadn't used any means to decide the outcome, so why did Siba give in?

"Why don't you continue?" Germain asked.

Sheba closed her eyes, then slowly opened them.

"I just simulated various methods in my mind for a moment, and realized that there is no other way to break the situation except fighting with you."

"But this goes against the rules of this battle. Besides, no matter how hard I try, I can't get an advantage. So I surrender."

"I think when your progress bars are full, it's your strong period. Am I going to watch and wait here, and be taken away by you in the end?"

When Siba said the last part, he actually smiled.

It was hard to imagine that this usually stern man would smile like this to someone other than Killua.

Germain thought about it and felt that it was true. It wasn't a life-and-death fight. Did he have to fight until he was disgraced before he gave up?

This is not in line with Sheba's style.

However, if word got out that Siba had voluntarily admitted defeat, it would definitely cause an uproar.

However, neither Germain nor Siba care about this false reputation. Sometimes, when others look down upon them, it is easier for them to do things.

So the first martial arts battle ended, with Siba admitting defeat and Germain winning.

The originally flat basin had been bombarded by teleportation bombs, making it look like the surface of the moon had been gnawed by tengu.

The two of them climbed up the earth wall calmly and walked towards the airship together.

"Some time ago, Yi Mi caused you trouble."

Siba was taller than Germain. He walked straight forward and said this without looking down at Germain.

What he was referring to was that in August, Ilmi cooperated with the Phantom Troupe and prepared to gather everyone's strength to solve Germain's matter on the train.

Unexpectedly, German led an army from behind and the situation was reversed.

Wo Jin, Nobunaga, and the new member No. 8 of the Phantom Troupe (Siba didn't remember the name of this guy who died as soon as he appeared) were all killed.

The leader Chrollo was hunted by Hisoka, and until now, there has been no news from either of them.

These are what Yi Mi told Siba on the phone after she quit the operation.

Siba paused and added another sentence.

"I have told him not to accept any assassination missions related to you. It should be said that none of our family will accept it. After I go back this time, I will remind him again."

The last time Siba reminded Yi Mi like this was the last time.

At that time, he had just killed the old member No. 8 of the Phantom Troupe, and then warned Ilmi and others not to touch the Phantom Troupe, it was not worth it.

Now, German as an individual also enjoys such treatment, which represents Siba's full recognition of German's combat prowess.

Before him, only a few people such as Nitro had such treatment.

When Germain heard what Siba said, he didn't think too much. He was used to being assassinated, but in the past six months, fewer and fewer people had assassinated him.

November and December last year were when the number of people was the largest, but also when the intensity was the lowest.

Later, the number of people became sparse, but the strength of those who came to assassinate them increased, especially the Yin Beast and the Phantom Troupe. He didn't mind adding an Ilmi.

At this time, he suddenly felt something strange.

Last year, and at the beginning of this year, he was still worried about what to do if he was assassinated by the Phantom Troupe or the Enemy Hakka family, and whether he should resort to the last means of escape - the teleportation lantern.

Now, what he thinks is, just come. Now that you are here, don't go back.

This is a completely different attitude, and it is also the result of him not stopping this year.

Now that Ilmi was mentioned, Germain recalled what he said on the train.

"Siba, I heard from Ilmi that Killua ran away from home?"

Sheba was not surprised that Germain cared about Killua.

When Killua ran away from home again, an investigation was launched within the Hakka family, and the interaction between Germain and Killua was seen from the surveillance camera at the gate.

The trainee housekeeper Kanalia was also nearby at that time, so after torture and interrogation, part of the truth about that day was revealed.

After all, Kanalia was driven away by Killua later, so she didn't know much.

However, she was punished for not reporting the situation in time.

After the punishment was over, she was not kicked out, but her probationary period was extended.

Because Sheba thinks that she is only loyal to Killua, which is commendable, and there is no need to drive her away.

As for what Germain and Killua said, Sheba could probably guess it with her toes.
