Lee Sin’s Bizzare Adventure Chapter 268: Informer

Li Qing undoubtedly has the initiative on the battlefield.

Meloni has basically lost her will to fight in a series of setbacks.

Risutte also did not dare to act rashly. He remained silent and put on that cold face that showed no emotion, while his pair of solemn eyes were always observing the surrounding environment.

This kind of behavior seems to be thinking calmly, but it also looks like a desperate person desperately looking for a life-saving straw.

And Li Qing does not intend to give the enemy this time to "look for straws" anymore.

He suddenly tensed his muscles and clenched his fists, always ready to launch a second, more rapid attack on Lisut and Meloni.

This time, Li Qing didn't want to pick on Meloni, a soft persimmon.

Because Risot has just demonstrated his stand-in abilities of "Pure Iron" and "Knife Stab in the Joint"——

Although this ability cannot cause any substantial damage, it can effectively hinder his movements and thwart his attacks.

Li Qing didn't want to fall over because of "iron hyperplasia" in his knees when he was beating someone up.

"Although it heals as before as long as I reach out and pull out the blade, this slight injury has basically no effect on me."

"But if I keep extending and removing the blade over and over again, I will definitely have a headache."

"So, the close combat that I am best at is somewhat inapplicable."

Li Qing seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be intimidating the enemy with such a calm tone:

"But, if I guessed correctly——"

"The range of influence of your stand-in ability will probably be very limited, right?"

"After all, I chased your car for about twenty meters before, but your response was to step on the accelerator and accelerate instead of using your 'nothing' ability to remotely damage my joints."

"In other words, the range of this substitute's ability is actually not even 20 meters?"

With just a few words, he basically understood the capabilities of metal products:

"How much is that?"

"Close to twenty meters, fifteen meters, ten meters, or five meters?"

Li Qing is not talking nonsense, but is repeating his old tricks of using his "audio lie detection" ability to obtain enemy intelligence.

This ability has limited effect on a cold character with good psychological quality like Risutte.

But when it comes to enemies like Bessie and Meloni who are either weak-minded or collapsed in despair, this little trick can be said to be tried and tested.

Sure enough, when Li Qing said "ten meters" leisurely, Meloni's heart began to beat wildly uncontrollably.

He may not even know that he has unknowingly become a traitor who betrayed his companions.

In this way, Meloni once again provided information to Li Qing without asking:

"I understand...the ability range is ten meters."

The corners of Li Qing's mouth revealed a malicious smile.

Then, as if he wanted to withdraw his troops and return home, he turned his head and jumped into the distance.

"Don't let him leave!"

Meloni shouted in panic.

Meloni, who previously wished she could grow wings and escape, is now "enthusiastic" about letting Li Qing stay.

This is because he has not been overwhelmed by the despair:

Of course he could understand that Li Qing was not trying to let them go, but was trying to get out of the ten-meter range of the metal products.

Once Li Qing is allowed to walk out of this ten-meter distance, Lisut will be completely trapped in a dilemma that is beyond his reach.

At that time, they will not be able to get rid of Li Qing in terms of speed, cannot match Li Qing in terms of strength, and cannot attack Li Qing in terms of ability...

Li Qing stood ten meters away and kept throwing bricks at them, and they would all be killed by this unskilled attack.

No...he doesn't even have to attack.

He only needs to roam around the perimeter and blockade them, keeping Lisut and Meloni from escaping. It won't take long for them to be crushed into ashes by Li Qing's companions who are coming later.

And their only hope of breaking the situation is to deal with Li Qing as soon as possible before Jotaro and others arrive.

In order to achieve this goal, they cannot let Li Qing go beyond his capabilities.

Lisut obviously understands this.

So, when Li Qing jumped out and tried to escape from the scope of his abilities, Lisut also reacted decisively and quickly:

"Metal products!"

He repeated his old trick, manipulating the iron elements in Li Qing's body to gather at his knee joints.

In just an instant, a sharp blade pierced through the flesh and bones, and its blade was deeply embedded in the joint cartilage.

Li Qing's running figure stagnated.

But it was just a slight lag.

Li Qing pulled out the blade without hesitation, and his damaged joints quickly returned to their original state.

Risutte could only chase after Li Qing while continuing to make blades at Li Qing's joints.

He tried his best to delay Li Qing's actions.

But this still doesn't do much.

Li Qing casually pulled out the blade twice, and saw that the blade was getting longer and longer, so he simply let it go——

Anyway, the long knife in the joint does not hurt or hurt at all. At most, it locks the articular cartilage and prevents free bending and flexible movement.

So Li Qing simply ignored these blades.

He straightened his blade-embedded knees and jumped forward in a straight zombie jumping posture like those in old ghost movies.

Although this posture is very funny and ridiculous, jumping is far faster than running.

But no matter what, Li Qing is moving forward.

Lisut and Meloni could only passively follow behind.

But after a few steps, they realized that what they were doing was meaningless:

It's not that you can't catch up, it's just that catching up won't change the overall situation.

Because the damage of metal products is too low, even if Li Qing stands there and lets them hit him, they may not be able to kill Li Qing.

In this case, why pursue it?

Anyway, as time goes on, Li Qing’s companions will still come, and they will still have to die.

Thinking of this, Meloni even thought of waiting for death in despair.

Risutte persisted in pursuing him, but looking at his gloomy face, he seemed to be helpless about the current situation.

Then, just like that, this funny chase lasted for just a few seconds...

Li Qing suddenly and inexplicably stopped on his own.

This is not because he gave up his original tactics.

It was because he suddenly discovered as he was moving forward that a negative status appeared on his system panel:

"Suffocation."

Seeing these two bright characters, Li Qing couldn't help but hesitate:

It is not unusual for his digital body to often experience various negative states.

For example, if he accidentally ingests poison, the system will immediately convert the effect of the poison into the negative state of "poisoning" and cause continuous damage to Li Qing for a certain period of time.

Similarly, "suffocation" is also a negative state.

But suffocation can be fatal to ordinary people, and even if they survive, it will seriously affect their body functions.

But Li Qing is different. The system has always roughly judged fatal physiological injuries such as poisoning and suffocation as a negative state that can only cause blood loss.

Li Qing's body functions are not affected at all. The so-called "suffocation" will only cause him to lose blood slowly, and the speed of this blood loss is very negligible.

So, the additional negative status of "suffocation" does not have a big impact on him.

But the problem now is...

Li Qing is neither diving nor holding his breath. How could he suddenly suffocate despite being so good?

"Is this knife poisonous?"

Suddenly discovering such a strange situation, Li Qing couldn't help but frowned tightly.

If you don’t understand, you have to ask.

Li Qing immediately set his sights on Meloni as a "student and job seeker":

"Hey...can this substitute ability still poison people?"

Melonie's heartbeat did not speed up significantly.

Obviously, Risutte's substitute ability itself has no intoxicating effect.

However, it can lead to "suffocation".

"Why is this?"

Li Qing’s brain is moving rapidly:

"How can it cause suffocation just by growing blades in my body?"

"Blade...Iron...Is it?!"

He suddenly thought that the element iron was actually closely related to human breathing.

Because iron is the main substance for maintaining life and an important raw material for making hemoglobin.

Hemoglobin is the main force responsible for transporting oxygen in blood vessels.

If there is too much iron deficiency in the human body, iron deficiency anemia will occur. The first symptom is difficulty breathing or even suffocation.

"No way?"

"Is it because of iron deficiency?"

Li Qing said to himself in astonishment:

"This is impossible——"

"There is less than 5 grams of iron in the human body. Could those knives be made of the iron in my body?"

He said these words just to subconsciously vent his confusion.

But Li Qing never expected that after hearing such absurd and common sense words...

The reliable intelligence agent Mr. Meloni immediately answered him with a "yes" with a suddenly accelerated heartbeat.

"Is it really made of iron from the human body?"

"The ability of this stand-in is to control the iron element in the human body? Can a normal human body really produce so many blades?"

Li Qing’s question was immediately answered in the affirmative by Meloni.

He now looks like a humanoid figure who answers all questions, the kind without any shady advertisements.

"This...do people in this world have so much iron in their bodies?"

"Did I eat food from another world for two days and my body mutated into a 'predator'?"

Li Qing couldn't help but sigh in shock.

After reluctantly accepting the magical setting that all humans in this world are "old men", he immediately thought of a question quickly:

"Even I did as the Romans did and became a 'Predator'..."

"But no matter what, the iron in a person's body is always limited, right? No matter how much iron there is in the blood, it can't be so much that it can be calculated in kilograms, right?"

"That is to say...that kind of 'knife in the flesh' trick can't be played many times at all."

"And once the iron in my body is exhausted, you will no longer be able to do anything to me -"

Li Qing asked maliciously:

"Am I right?"

Intelligence agent Meloni's breathing became a little difficult.

Even Risutte, who was determined and unpredictable, felt his heart skip a beat.

Li Qing's step-by-step analysis and the repeated exposure of information seemed to disturb Lisute's state of mind, causing him to have this obvious physiological reaction that was not self-inflicted.

No wonder they are, after all...

As long as the iron in the body is depleted, there is nothing you can do to him... Listen, this is not a human saying!

Normal people will die if they run out of iron! How come it has become an advantage for you? !

Melonie roared with grief and anger in her heart.

In his eyes, this Li Qing is simply a monster from hell, a demon from the abyss.

And Li Qing's playful voice really sounded like a devil's whisper.

He unhurriedly pulled out the blood-stained blade from his body and threw it to the ground, using the crisp collision sound of the metal and the ground to accompany his bone-chilling voice:

"I see...then I understand."

"I originally thought you could use this move indefinitely, so I thought of hiding outside your range and using long-range attacks."

"I didn't expect...it turns out that your stand-in ability has such great limitations."

"So much iron has just been extracted from my body, and I am already in a state of suffocation - I am afraid that the raw materials in my body are about to be used up, right?"

He looked at his blood volume, which was still stable at over 90%, and felt more confident.

In this way, Li Qing simply gave up his original battle plan.

He stayed where he was, and looked at Risutte with a solemn expression aggressively:

"Don't bother chasing me anymore."

"As you wish, I won't run away again."

Li Qing had a cold smile on his face, slowly approaching like a hungry hungry tiger:

"Let me take a good look -"

"Which one of you will run out of iron first, or my blood!"
