Chapter 769 - Theoretically...

"Aunt! I'll leave her to you!" After confirming that Azhar's life signs had finally stabilized, Kiana ignored Evolution's angry scolding and turned back to the battlefield.

The power of the Herrscher's regained power had increased by more than a little, but Bianka, who had completed her transformation, also had a surge in power.

And after Kiana joined the battlefield, the Herrscher instantly fell into a disadvantage and could only struggle to deal with the attacks of the two.

"Those two..." The members of the Snow Wolf Squad stood on the sand, looking at the two who were gradually fighting into the sky, dumbfounded. "Are they still human?"

Li Sushang had already surprised them before, and now these two made them even more puzzled.

"Kiana has really... grown a lot along the way," Theresa's final result after repeated contemplation was only this dry sentence.

Watching the two suppress the Herrscher, a sense of crisis of being abandoned by the version suddenly rose in her heart.

"Yeah, we've really encountered a lot along the way..." Mei held the pseudo Xuanyuan Sword in her hand, smiling a little sadly.

Li Sushang's eyes had already fallen on the pseudo Xuanyuan Sword in Mei's hand. She looked at the Xuanyuan Sword in her hand, then looked at the pseudo Xuanyuan Sword in Mei's hand, and tentatively beckoned to the pseudo Xuanyuan Sword with her finger.

The sword body did tremble a little, but her own Xuanyuan Sword trembled even more, and there was a faint sense of helplessness.

"They don't have a one-hit-kill move... if this continues, the Herrscher will most likely escape," Bronya's voice sounded after a long time, startling everyone.

A fist could kill a person, but that was on a frail body that could be injured for months or even for life.

The Herrscher of Binding's recovery ability was already visible to the naked eye, not to mention someone like Gu Chu, who could grow back after being torn into three pieces, and even let the two abandoned parts counterattack.

So now that the two had suppressed the Herrscher, they were actually still in a situation where they could do nothing to the Herrscher.

This was the drawback of a high-end battle. Anyone who could stand opposite you would have some life-saving or one-hit-kill abilities, and you didn't know whether the trump card in the other party's hand was for life-saving or counterattacking.

A time stop would meet another time stop, an absolute hit would be dodged by a simple substitute, and even conceptual skills would meet another conceptual skill.

At least, which one of the people Shu had met along the way was not a conceptual ability?

If it weren't for the fact that he relied on the mutual collision between powers to brute-force his way through, Shu didn't know how many times he would have been overturned.

Shu had only been in the position of having the intelligence advantage once, and that was when he returned to the [Nest] from the lower level of Heliopolis Life Sciences Pharmaceutical, exhausted, and confronted Evolution with just one sword.

What it feared was not Shu's sword, but whether Shu, who could use that sword, had other stronger, more targeted powers.

Because Shu's lower limit was already there. At worst, the other party could still use that sword, and that sword had already reached the minimum standard to injure him.

Just like Gu Chu, who was currently fighting Shu. It seemed that Shu was completely suppressing Gu Chu, but in reality?

So far, Shu had only made one mistake in using Binding at the beginning. In the rest of the battle, both sides had almost played to their limit...

To be precise, Gu Chu had reached the limit that Shu could predict.

All kinds of incredible angles and extremely tricky movements made Shu dumbfounded.

Shu himself didn't know that when the Judgment of Shamash erupted, a gap would appear because of where he was holding it, let alone that this gap, which was only a few dozen degrees lower in temperature, would become the fatal flaw of the Judgment of Shamash being defeated!

Even if this gap only appeared at the moment he erupted the Judgment of Shamash, and lasted for less than 0.0001 seconds, its position was not even fixed!

Is this a human?!

No, Gu Chu was indeed not human.

After two consecutive Judgment of Shamash s were defeated, Shu also tried to use this technique of "four ounces to move a thousand pounds" on Gu Chu's Judgment of Shamash , and then came up with the above idea.

The things he had to do with all his strength, predicting in advance, and consuming a lot of [Hope], Gu Chu could actually use them continuously with zero mistakes?

Was this also a use of his power?

Shu had to believe it even if he didn't want to. It was the same sentence. The other party's lower limit was already here. Shu had to consider the possibility that the other party had more trump cards.

But Shu abided by this rule, while Gu Chu was in a completely opposite situation.

The operation that made Shu sigh was easy for him, and he even felt that it was not perfect.

On the basis of what his power had achieved, Gu Chu even began to simplify and modify his own actions, because he felt that this was not the optimal solution.

Theoretically... there was a better choice!

But how could the choice made by his power be easily surpassed by Gu Chu's personal thinking?

The moment he made a modification to his own power, Shu suddenly burst out and seized this fleeting flaw, and smashed the Judgment of Shamash that had begun to mutate directly onto Gu Chu's face.

Gu Chu's entire head was blown to pieces under the Judgment of Shamash. Even his upper body was burned to ashes by this sword, and his lower body was also a charred black and fell downwards.

Shu mercilessly was about to chase after him, but a few golden spears that shot at him from a specific angle made him have to raise his hand to block them, delaying him for a short moment.

After that, Gu Chu, who had risen from the ground, had already recovered completely.

He twisted his chin in front of Shu, and then glanced at the Judgment of Shamash in Shu's hand that had returned to its original state.

Shu was sure that Gu Chu had definitely not seen the change in that sword clearly, but the next moment, a trace of flame ignited in Gu Chu's hand.

The next moment, a greatsword that was even more exaggerated than the Judgment of Shamash appeared in his hand.

Might of An-utu.

The guess in Shu's heart was once again confirmed, even though his sword had seized the flaw that Gu Chu had finally revealed, and was used in a situation that was almost impossible to detect.

But Gu Chu had already deduced the theoretical "Might of An-utu" just based on the information of his own attack.

But what about the power of the Might of An-utu?

The Might of An-utu he used was forcibly transformed by his own Honkai energy that surpassed one core, but Gu Chu's upper limit was one core.

Where did he get the power to evolve the Judgment of Shamash?

Theory...

Could it be... that the other party's theory was not analysis, but ignoring necessary conditions? As long as the data obtained was enough to support a theoretical result, then this result could be achieved?

And could he even obtain Honkai energy that surpassed his own output limit?

No... the other party must have some flaws, because the other party could clearly surpass the limit, but was still suppressed by him in terms of force magnitude...

Collecting data... was it because the other party's data must be objective?

No "assumptions" were allowed, only errors in magnitude were allowed...

This was why the other party couldn't come up with those more bizarre means, and could only use the abilities he had seen, because too many technological weapons had their own unique "assumptions," perhaps a new material, perhaps a new formula, an unexpected variable...

Gu Chu needed these already formed things to get the theoretical result.

Just as in theory, the charging of the Judgment of Shamash needed to greatly exceed the 100% limit, and Shu's attack gave Gu Chu a specific data, so he obtained the right to use the Might of An-utu.

The other party's power was becoming clearer and clearer, but Shu's heart was sinking.

Any of his actions could provide more data to the other party, and he still couldn't see the top of the other party's upper limit, and could only rely on his own guess to determine...

Shu had overestimated Gu Chu!

The Judgment of Shamash in his hand was no longer in the state of Judgment of Shamash, but had transformed into the form of the Might of An-utu, just like Gu Chu.

The next moment, when the two flames collided again, the flames that erupted were several times larger, and the Might of An-utu in their hands also shattered in response.

The Might of An-utu in Gu Chu's hand was still forcibly broken by Shu, and the Might of An-utu in Shu's hand was also broken by Gu Chu in an unexpected way after he seized a fleeting flaw.

Why did he change the method of destruction again?

Shu retreated a short distance in the air, and was a little depressed as he constantly calculated the method that the other party used to defeat his Might of An-utu. He pushed his thinking speed to the limit he could bear before he could barely calculate a few possible operations.

But it was only a possible guess, and Shu's face still didn't look good.

Looking at Gu Chu, who was almost pushed out of the near-earth orbit by the aftershock of the explosion, Shu once again felt the trickiness of the other party's power.

But he couldn't lose... at least there was good news... that was that the other party's limit depended on him and not the other party. Now he was the source of data that the other party relied on to play. As long as he continued to use these abilities, the other party was unlikely to continue to play.

If he was at his peak state and had the scepter in his hand, then Shu was confident that he could kill Gu Chu in a short time.

After all, Gu Chu's current exaggerated performance was still based on his power. Through the mutual collision between powers, Shu could still use the suppression of his power to completely crush Gu Chu in a short time.

But the power was left with Kiana and the others along with the scepter.

Before they were solved, Shu would not...

Shu suddenly discovered a contradiction... he now wanted to solve Gu Chu as soon as possible, and then go back to solve Kiana's difficulties, and the scepter was the guarantee that Kiana and the others could hold on until he solved Gu Chu.

But now, if he didn't take back his power, it would be difficult to solve Gu Chu quickly, and if he took back his power, he couldn't guarantee that Kiana and the others could hold on until he came back...

This was actually a very simple question of trust. Whether Shu trusted himself or Kiana and the others, this problem could be solved very easily.

But Gu Chu's unknown made Shu silent, and the unknown information about that Herrscher also made him dare not act rashly.

And unlike Shu's entanglement, Gu Chu, who was directly sent flying beyond the near-earth orbit, was a little dazed.

This was the first time he had come to such a high position.

Looking down, the desert that had seemed endless before was just a small yellow spot under his feet. Blue and green were still the main colors of this world.

At his current position, it was already difficult to feel the influence of gravity.

Although he knew that he was falling towards the earth, the pulling force was very small to him, and had already reached the condition where he could theoretically break free...

Gu Chu's eyelashes trembled. The next moment, he straightened his body in space, and looked down at Shu, who had flown out of the atmosphere from the near-earth orbit and had come in front of him.

The two had now left the earth and were confronting each other in space.

Shu was still in the same state as he was at the beginning. Gu Chu had no means to hurt him.

And Gu Chu was only wearing a pair of tattered shorts. His body had been destroyed and reborn by Shu countless times.

The last time Shu came to space was also to chase after a Herrscher. But at that time, he was still at his peak state, and he had killed the more exaggerated Herrscher by brute-forcing his way through.

He looked at Gu Chu opposite him, and his mind began to think about the problem he had repeated countless times.

How could he solve Gu Chu without taking back his power?

The answer was actually very obvious...

Let Kiana and the others solve the Herrscher of Binding in turn, and release the occupied power to assist Shu.

And on another battlefield, the Herrscher who had been hit by the joint attack of Bianka and Kiana finally returned to the ground.

Before she could wipe the golden liquid flowing from the corner of her mouth, several figures had already rushed towards her from all directions.

The Herrscher silently raised her hand, and several golden chains emerged from under her feet, forming a circle of protection around her, blocking most of the attacks.

A lightning-like light spot accurately penetrated the gap between the chains and hit the Herrscher's heart.

The Herrscher only felt a heart-wrenching pain instantly spread through her body.

My body... is collapsing?

The Herrscher's eyes widened as she watched small fragments constantly peeling off her body, and watched her body gradually turning into ashes.

Suddenly, she fiercely grabbed a chain beside her and forcefully stuffed it into her body.

A burst of golden light erupted from her body, and Kallen looked up in disbelief.

"Impossible! She stopped decomposing!"

There was indeed a way to offset the power of the Seven Thunders of Retribution, but that required the large-scale machinery of Future City to do so. The Herrscher's method... was unheard of!

If the Herrscher could be sliced up now, it would be found that there were countless fine threads in her body, no less than the number of sentences Tafira had received.

But Tafira's were needles, while the Herrscher's were fine threads that forcibly pulled her body together.

The tearing pain was still in her body, but the Herrscher just secretly glanced at Kallen's hiding place, and then raised her head again, looking at Bianka and Kiana.
