Chapter 856: 654 Chapter: Showing off in front of an Expert - Part 2
The Mimicker, who had suddenly become taller, larger, and stronger, burst into laughter, feeling a power he had never felt before! Now he was confident he could easily crush Long Yi!
Roar!
The Mimicker opened his mouth and spat out a ball of Fighting Aura; Long Yi immediately dodged, as the Fighting Aura blasted a large pit into the ground!
The spectators gasped, and then suddenly burst into loud cheers! Although no one knew what had happened, they knew the Mimicker had become stronger! And since he was stronger, he would surely defeat Long Yi!
And defeating Long Yi would naturally mean becoming the king of the Arena in the Stellar Realm!
Not just the audience, but the Mimicker himself thought so too.
From his high vantage, he watched as Long Yi continuously dodged his attacks, feeling for the first time that overwhelming sense of power!
As this feeling of strength increasingly filled the Mimicker’s mind, blind confidence began to seep into his thoughts. He stopped defending altogether and pursued Long Yi relentlessly. He was well aware that if he couldn’t defeat Long Yi within twenty minutes, then after those twenty minutes, he would be at the mercy of others.
But Long Yi didn’t plan on delaying for twenty-two minutes.
He had been thinking all this time about how he could gain the power of the mask. How could an ordinary person, just by using a Replication Mask, possess all the strengths of a powerhouse, even Divine Power? That seemed a bit far-fetched. The copied power couldn’t possibly be Divine Power, and the so-called replication of all abilities couldn’t be as it appeared; there was definitely more complexity to how the mask worked than it sounded.
However, Long Yi really had to marvel at the technology of the Giants, which could even achieve something so outrageous.
At this moment, the Mimicker was frantic. Although his strength had greatly increased, he wasn’t accustomed to his new power and significantly larger body, even almost falling several times. His attacks seemed immensely powerful, but were not as effective as he expected—because Long Yi dodged nearly all of them.
This wouldn’t do! At this rate, it wouldn’t just be about winning; even injuring Long Yi seemed impossible!
As his mind ran wild with thoughts, his movements slowed.
However, at this moment, Long Yi made his move. His body, which had been rushing to one side, abruptly stopped, and the Mimicker’s fist almost crashed down in front of him. At the same time, Long Yi’s body was covered in Crystal Stone armor, and he suddenly punched heavily onto the Mimicker’s arm!
A crack was heard as the Mimicker’s arm bone broke!
Yes, this was the moment Long Yi had been waiting for! The moment the fist came down, he struck heavily, tilting the opponent’s arm and using the opponent’s own heavy hit to break his bone!
And his aim was truly achieved.
Aoow!
The Mimicker howled, pulling back his fist. But Long Yi’s Greatsword had already been drawn!
Giant talent activated! Ignored the opponent’s rank restrictions to cause true damage!
"Dragon Wing Slash!"
Swish!
The massive arc of light struck the severed arm, effortlessly chopping it off!
No way?
This was what both Long Yi and the Mimicker thought at the same time.
Long Yi had originally only intended to inflict a wound on the Mimicker’s arm with his strike, to observe the flow of energy in his opponent. The Mimicker didn’t take Long Yi’s strike seriously, blocking it instinctively. But to his surprise, a light slash from Long Yi directly chopped his arm off!
Could it be so fragile? Was it just for show? Then, the severed arm turned into a streak of light in the air and disappeared!
Disappeared?
Long Yi was initially puzzled, then laughed.
"Indeed, this huge body isn’t your real one!"
With his strike successful, Long Yi showed no mercy and continued to attack. The arcs from the Greatsword left huge gashes on the Mimicker’s massive form!
Finally, before Long Yi, the giant Mimicker exploded into a burst of light, leaving only the guy who looked exactly like Long Yi.
"It seems your time hasn’t come yet, has it?"
Long Yi said with a smile.
The Mimicker looked incredulously at his hands. The terrifying power he had just now wasn’t fake, but why was it so vulnerable?
"Want to know why?" Long Yi spoke, then pointed to the ground not far away. "It seems you’ve forgotten something important."
Following Long Yi’s gesture, the Mimicker looked over and realized that the marks left on the ground from the previous bombing, the large pits, had all disappeared!
"How can this be?" the Mimicker muttered.
"Because you’ve been immersed in this false power for too long, you’ve forgotten something. The Replication Mask you hold in your hand, it’s not a weapon at all." Long Yi said with a smile.
"Not a weapon, then it’s..."
"A toy!"
Long Yi had read many books on the Giants. Although he hadn’t thought of what the mask truly was at first, he quickly realized that his battle seemed to be very interesting.
The Replication Mask was a toy crafted by the Giant race for children of some unknown race. And since it was a toy, how could it be lethal! While the person influenced by the mask felt very real power, when the mask’s power faded, all changes would disappear. All along, the Mimicker had been using the power of the mask to divert the attention of others, then secretly killing them. He never knew what would happen once he failed and the power of the mask was gone!
