Chapter 501: The Battle Between Man and Machine
Vincent lowered his head to look at Kurt on the ground and asked softly, “How is it? Can you still endure it?”
Kurt nodded and said, “No problem, Mr. Vincent! You don’t have to hold back at all. Even if I can’t resist it, I can still recover from my injuries afterward!”
Vincent said with a smile, “Alright then, you have to be careful from now on!”
He then waved the long knife in his hand downward.
His Return Journey of the Dead’s special ability was immediately activated. Purgatory of Nature instantly appeared in the wilderness.
“Boom!”
Countless gravestones emitting a dim light fell from the sky, piercing into the earth from all directions. Boiling magma spilled out of the cracks and flowed on the earth all the way to Kurt’s feet.
At the same time, countless fire spirits were climbing out of the lava. They opened their mouths that were dripping lava and let out endless wails.
Vincent felt that the scene was still not challenging enough. He flapped the twelve flaming wings on his back and shouted in a deep voice, “Fire God Avatar!”
A flame giant with the same twelve flaming wings and a knife rose from the ground and stood behind Vincent like a huge mountain. It gave off a suffocating sense of pressure.
However, as a robot, Kurt did not feel anything because no matter how powerful a move was, it was just a simple piece of data to him. The strength of the data was only reflected in numbers. It would only be considered by Kurt as a unit in the formula.
Therefore, Kurt, who did not feel anything about life and death, did not know what fear was!
After seeing that Vincent was about to launch his most powerful attack, Kurt no longer hesitated. His entire body emitted seven-colored starlight as if he was recharging.
Then, the soil under Kurt exploded with a bang, and his entire body shot into the air again. His entire body turned into a giant dragon under the seven-colored light. He let out a fierce roar at Vincent, who was floating above the Purgatory of Nature.
The fire spirit that had just crawled out of the magma abyss instantly shattered into a pile of bones after hearing Kurt’s roar. The bones turned into lava and returned to the abyss.
“Dragon Transformation! This is a very special ability. As for how much strength you managed to obtain from the Dragon Race, I’m curious to know!”
Vincent could not help but comment as he looked at Kurt, who had already transformed into a dragon. He decided not to stay behind and once again swung his blade downward.
Vincent roared, “Heaven and Earth Destruction!”
He directly used the eight forms of Heaven’s Will, which was also one of the strongest attacks he had so far.
At the same time, the Fire God Avatar behind Vincent also raised the flaming long blade in his hand and performed the Heavenly Wing-Blade technique.
Kurt looked at the giant flaming blade falling from the sky and the large blade in its hand. He opened his mouth to spew out a mass of seven-colored aura.
When his seven-colored dragon aura gushed out, it carried a rather terrifying temperature, causing the air in the Purgatory of Nature to boil!
In the end, the blade in Vincent’s hand, which was formed using battle intent, struck the dense mist formed by the seven-colored dragon aura. Unexpectedly, he was unable to directly split the blazing aura into two halves. Instead, he seemed to have hacked onto a shield, causing an intense sound to burst forth.
Vincent and Kurt were caught in a contest of strength.
Just as the two sides were in a stalemate, the Fire God Avatar’s blade descended, smashing heavily onto Kurt’s dragon aura.
“Boom!”
The seven-colored dragon’s aura instantly exploded causing the sky to light up like a blossoming flower, while Kurt once again fell to the ground like a meteor.
Vincent snapped his fingers and put away the Fire God Avatar behind him. He flapped his wings and flew toward the ground.
Kurt landed heavily on the ground leaving behind a hole. The illusory dragon scales on his body became much dimmer, but he did not hesitate at all. He immediately stood up and looked at Vincent, who had already landed in front of him, with full vigilance.
Kurt said with a serious face, “Mr. Vincent, why did you put away the Fire God Avatar? You are going easy on me!”
Vincent smiled slightly and shook his head as he said, “I am not going easy on you. I just want to crush you with different attacks!”
After hearing Vincent’s confident and arrogant tone, Kurt felt relieved. He said, “As long as you don’t go easy on me, then I will be at ease! Because I still have many abilities that I have not displayed yet!”
Vincent held the knife in his right hand and waved his left hand forward. He shouted, “Come!”
Kurt responded and moved forward. He opened his arms, and light instantly condensed on his two palms. They then turned into two illusory dragon claws. He swung them forward and aimed straight for Vincent’s throat.
Vincent immediately raised his knife to fight Kurt.
Both sides fought at an even faster speed than before. In the blink of an eye, they had launched dozens of attacks on each other.
Vincent was extremely fast. In addition to his agility, he also had a strong self-healing ability and the ability to ignore physical attacks when he spiritualized his entire body. Hence, he immediately attacked with all his might. He wanted to directly suppress Kurt in close combat.
Kurt’s speed had also increased during the battle. He seemed to have no limits as he caught up with Vincent’s speed. Moreover, with his strong defense, he maintained an equal status with Vincent!
However, Vincent was not satisfied with this because while he was helping Kurt collect data, he also wanted to tap into his own potential and try to integrate the many abilities he had learned.
Vincent found an opening to withdraw his weapon and retreat. He pointed his left hand at Kurt and shouted in a deep voice, “Modify and detach!”
Kurt, who was about to chase after Vincent, had just taken a step forward when the dragon scales on his body scattered all over the ground. They were falling apart. Kurt could not help but be stunned.
Kurt was only a robot. All the responses he made in battle were all simulated and deduced before the battle even started. However, it was impossible for him to predict how Vincent would use the modification authority against him. This was because every life form with an independent mind had its own unique imagination. During the battle, they would be able to come up with their own unique ideas. This was a situation that Kurt would never be able to figure out even if he calculated till his death.
Meanwhile, Vincent seized the opportunity and stepped forward. He swung his knife at Kurt’s head.
Although Kurt did not have the ability to deal with unexpected situations, he still had the emergency escape settings. Just like a human’s subconscious, he did not need to think and quickly retreated, dodging Vincent’s blade.
Vincent did not want to let Kurt off easily. After seeing that Kurt had retreated, he continued to maintain his charging posture, vowing to strike Kurt’s body with his blade before stopping.
However, Kurt had already taken the opportunity of the time to calculate how to deal with the current situation!
Kurt crossed his hands in front of him and shouted, “Withdraw!”
The illusory dragon scales that had long been scattered on the ground instantly flew up and began to gather on the surface of his body rapidly. They covered his entire body in an instant. Vincent’s blade had yet to reach him.
Kurt, who had rebuilt his defense, decided to stop retreating. He leaned forward and began to sprint with all his strength to meet Vincent’s blade head-on.
When the tip of his blade touched the illusory dragon scale, Vincent suddenly felt a huge impact. He was pushed backward by the huge impact.
Vincent revealed an excited expression. This was because he was able to test his adaptability and creativity in battle when facing Kurt’s endless and illogical offensive methods.
“Modify the illusion!” shouted Vincent.
His entire body instantly entered a semi-transparent state. He was no longer being pushed forward by Kurt. He allowed Kurt to pass through his body unscathed.
However, when he was behind Kurt, Vincent immediately canceled the illusion state and turned around to slash at Kurt’s back.
At the same time, Vincent also shouted, “Modify and melt!”
The ground beneath Kurt’s feet began to ripple like water and soon turned into a swamp. It latched onto Kurt’s feet firmly, preventing him from moving forward. At the same time, he was also unable to immediately turn around to face Vincent’s attack.
Vincent slashed down with his blade and shouted, “World Domination!”
He decided to use the most powerful move of the eight forms of Heaven’s Will!
Even if his blade could not break through Kurt’s defense, it could still smash him into the swamp, and he would never be able to escape.
“Boom!”
Kurt suddenly raised his head and let out an explosive roar.
Vincent, who was preparing to slash down behind him, was startled and fell into a daze.
Kurt took advantage of this opportunity and pulled his feet out from the mud. He lowered his head and spat out fire, quickly drying the soil under his feet, allowing him to have a perfect foothold.
Vincent, who was in a daze, only used two seconds to shake his head and wake up. He looked at Kurt who had dried up the ground. He smiled and said, “I didn’t expect your dragon’s might to have the effects of a real dragon! But for someone like me who already has the divine personality, this kind of pressure can only throw me off for a moment. It won’t have a decisive effect. Let’s see what else you can do this time!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Vincent continued to swing his sword downward.
Kurt did not even have time to look back at Vincent. He could only bow slightly to delay the time before the blade struck him.
Kurt stomped hard on the ground and flew far away like an arrow leaving the bow.
Vincent smiled slightly in response. With just a thought, endless fighting spirit began to surge crazily in his body. The long sword in his hand instantly expanded to dozens of meters long.
At the same time, another huge tombstone fell from the sky and smashed in front of Kurt fiercely, blocking his only way out.
Kurt, who was maintaining his full speed moving forward, had no time to stop. He smashed onto the tombstone, embedding his entire body into the tombstone.
At the same time, the large knife in Vincent’s hand also fell from the sky, leaving a deep crack in the tombstone. The knife cut through Kurt’s body.
“Bang!”
When the knife’s blade cut through Kurt’s body, an explosion was heard. The explosion blew up the tombstone behind him.
Among the countless broken stones, laid Kurt’s body. His entire body had turned black. Bolts of lightning were flashing. Kurt had completely lost consciousness!
