BXBX NOVEL Chapter 91 Body Technique
Although Vincent heard the two, he\'s no longer in a position to stop his movements and look at them.
He can only face the old man who seemed to be excited to take his life.
Bang!
His cane and the man\'s fist met as it created a shockwave… The surrounding leaves and dust scattered away…
\'Hmmm?\'
From that clash, he realized that the man is wearing a steel gauntlet or something similar. It is just hidden by some dirty cloth wrapped around his arm. In addition, his Crush Attribute doesn\'t seem effective at all!
This is the first time he encountered this as he gravely looked at him.
Normally, all swords, armors, or even people that he hit with his +9 weapon, would at least be on the verge of breaking.
Even if they have high durability stat, Vincent would be able to tell that he still removed a chunk of it.
This time, however, he didn\'t sense a good result from that clash! As a matter of fact, he felt that his cane received more damage!
He attacked again but the result was the same after exchanging for a few rounds.
Vincent was baffled by this unusual phenomenon as he looked at the man solemnly. The latter was also confused as he looked at his cane curiously.
"Not only you are protected by another Celestial Being but you also have some skills with you… Interesting." The old man finally spoke as he assessed Vincent\'s figure.
Since Vincent is only 15 years old, he only has a small frame compared to a 50-year-old man like him.
"Well, I also didn\'t expect that there was another Celestial here… By the way, is she a Numbered Celestial?" Vincent directly asked.
"Haha! Are you nervous? Don\'t worry… She\'s unnumbered. However, she survived the Second Rapture and has a Celestial Weapon. So your Celestial must be careful…" The old man said with a trace of a smile on his face.
He\'s obviously confident that the Celestial he brought would be able to win against Tara in a matter of time.
However, his words just elated Vincent.
Tara may have been weakened as she hasn\'t recovered her Celestial Powers yet and she\'s the weakest Numbered Celestial at Rank 999, but she\'s definitely a Celestial who can defeat an unnumbered one!
"It\'s good that you\'re confident… But you have to worry about yourself first." Vincent said as he decided to attack again.
He noticed that the old man is gathering his mana to his fist again. It means that he\'s about to launch his attack and he has to do something about it.
This time, Vincent acted as if he was going to strike him with his cane again. However, as soon as he had gotten closer to him, he used his Cane\'s only Active Skill, Ensnare!
Suddenly, steel-like vines started sprouting on the ground as they wrapped the old man\'s feet!
"Aacckk!"
He was surprised by the sudden unusual magical ability Vincent had shown! He had seen Mana Arts like Fireballs, Ice Crystal, Earth Wall, Water Prison, and Wind Blades… However, controlling metallic thorny vines was the first!
His legs were caught by the vines as the thorns cut deeply into his flesh.
However, he was still a man who has experienced many battles. After realizing his situation, he concentrated on destroying the vines with his bare hands!
Surprisingly, his bare hands seem to be immune to their thorns as he easily crushed them as long as he got hold of them!
Nevertheless, this provided Vincent an opportunity to strike the man!
Haa!
With Shrouded Steps, he arrived next to the old man as he struck his left shoulder!
Crack!
The old man didn\'t expect that he would receive such a powerful strike so suddenly as his bones seem to have cracked from that single move.
At the very least, it was still bearable to him with his tough upper body as he continued removing the vines…
Of course, Vincent didn\'t stop as he followed up with his strikes.
Bam! Bam!
"Vincent! Be careful!"
Vincent then heard Tara\'s voice filled with worry… He can tell that he has nothing to worry about this old man already… However, since Tara mentioned this, it must mean that the other Celestial managed to escape from her.
Without looking back, Vincent used his Shrouded Steps as he moved to the left side where there was a tree he could use as a cover.
Bam!
As soon as Vincent escaped, a figure of a woman suddenly appeared beside the old man.
Cough! Cough!
The old man spat a mouthful of blood because of Vincent\'s ruthless attack.
To be honest, Vincent was actually stunned to see that this old man is still alive after taking four strikes from his cane.
"Vincent… Are you alright?" Tara arrived beside him and asked. Her overcoat wasn\'t damaged at all similar to Vincent.
Vincent wasn\'t sure but he felt a sense of worry from her question.
\'She\'s worried?\' He entertained this thought as he smiled at her before he answered.
"I\'m fine… However, that man was too weird… He has a very tough body and he only spat some blood. Look, he\'s already standing again." Vincent said as he observed the old man.
"Hmph! I didn\'t expect that the two of you would be so troublesome to deal with." The old man said grimly as he looked at Vincent and Tara.
"Who are you, old man? Why are targeting us? Though you look like a beggar, I know you\'re not. With that strength of yours and the Celestial Being with you, wouldn\'t you easily get a job if you want?" Vincent asked.
"Haha… You don\'t understand. How can I resist this beautiful woman with you? Of course, I want to spend a few nights with her… I\'ll make it so that she won\'t ever forget about me. Hmm… How about this, if you agree, I will give you the technique to strengthen your body like mine?"
The old man offered as he twist his shoulder joints with his other hand. It appears that he already recovered at such a moment\'s notice.
"Fair trade, right?" He added.
No wonder he wasn\'t too concerned after getting hit several times by his cane! His recovery rate was insane!
Perhaps, only once he managed to make his cane a +10 weapon will he take it seriously.
"You\'re joking, old man… Are you not afraid that she\'ll twist your neck right now? You have a Celestial with you, why don\'t you spend your time with her."
Vincent said, irritated by the old man\'s vulgar words.
"Hmph! If we didn\'t have a contract prohibiting it… I would\'ve done it already."
