Chapter 504 The fateful battle (please vote for me!)
Chen Lun's pupils shrank sharply and his eyes narrowed slightly.
He looked at the man in front of him who was very similar to Philip, and felt a strong sense of absurdity and disbelief in his heart.
"Philip?!"
"Sorry, I didn't tell you the truth before."
The blond man smiled apologetically.
"No, it should be said that I didn't realize the truth when I wrote the message... It wasn't until later that I found out that in fact, after Howard and I challenged the teacher together, we didn't completely win in the end, because the fate of both of us had already been determined by the teacher. Affected by the power, they gradually get closer until they merge and become indistinguishable from each other.”
His eyes, which were full of dark circles, showed a dim light.
Chen Lun himself was a saint of destiny and easily understood the meaning of his words.
A person's destiny trajectory, without external intervention, is absolutely fixed... Even if the person concerned makes a choice he thinks is right at a major turning point in his life, the future will still develop according to the destiny trajectory, because fate has already understood it. Everything is determined and the outcome is doomed.
If the fate trajectories of two people cross and collide, it means that the two people will meet and get to know each other and form bonds. Parallel means companionship, and bifurcation means alienation.
The situation of Philip and Howard is unique.
At least Chen Lun had never heard of it.
The two fateful trajectories of the two of them were forcibly merged into one under the influence of some extremely terrifying mythical power... The result of this was that two living individuals finally became one. people!
To put it in another way that is easy to understand, the current "Philip Howard" is a brand new existence, but he is in a state of split personality.
"So...what's the point of you helping me all the time?"
Chen Lun frowned and asked in a deep voice.
Philip was originally both a mentor and a friend to him, and Chen Lun had promised that after he was promoted to a high position, he would find a way to rescue him from the dream world... But now it seems that the other party's situation is far beyond his expectation, and even more so became mortal enemies.
His heart is extremely complex.
"This stems from a disagreement between Howard and I..."
Philip shook his head.
He turned his head to look inside the high wall and spoke softly:
"I have been deeply trapped in the dream world before and cannot extricate myself. Every time I fall asleep, I will be one step closer to the lighthouse. A strong intuition tells me that one day in the future, when I am completely close to the lighthouse, it will be the time of my death. ...Howard wants to save me, of course, now It seems that it is also self-saving, so He agreed with my decision to leave the "Dream in Wonderland" to you. Firstly, it is to help you grow up quickly, and secondly, it is to allow you to adapt to the environment of the dream world in advance, and finally bring us together. Get out of this quagmire.”
He turned his head back and looked at Chen Lun with regret.
"It's a pity that Howard's plan is much faster than mine... Although he and I both hope that you can grow up, the ultimate goal is different. I just turn to you for help, and I will accept my fate whether it succeeds or not... …But Howard is unwilling to entrust his hope to In the hands of others, he imitated Huan Gong's "Time of Pearls" and planned a battle in the royal city in order to complete the angel's promotion ceremony, so that with his own weight and strength, he could directly break the shackles of the dream world and finally escape. .”
After hearing this, Chen Lun finally understood Phillip's position.
He may have never thought of being his enemy, nor has he subjectively manipulated his own destiny. He has even always regarded himself as a friend, guiding and helping him... But Howard is different, he only believes in himself.
Although he agreed to Phillip's plan, Howard was also ready for a second hand... Chen Lun even speculated that Phillip was probably at a disadvantage in the fight for control of his body.
"Philip, haven't you ever thought...even if I finally rescue you from the dream world, I will eventually become your enemy because of the constraints of fate?"
Philip fell into silence, and finally sighed.
"Jack, the path to destiny does not always rely on challenging fate to gain strength... This rule will only appear when a high-ranking person intervenes in the fate of a lower-ranking person... I didn't notice Howard's actions at first. It's too late when you know... If possible, I actually hope to live peacefully with Maggie for a while after gaining freedom. When you are convinced that you need to be promoted to an angel in the future, I will give this life back to you."
"There is no point in talking about it now, Philip."
Chen Lun said softly.
"Yeah...it makes no sense anymore."
Phillip raised his head and closed his eyes, sighing.
The two were silent for a while.
When He opened his eyes again, this time, his eyes became deep and indifferent.
"The past is vain, memories are fleeting, and only loneliness is eternal...Jack, your performance can begin."
Philip... no, Howard said.
Chen Lun instantly calmed down his fluctuating emotions and slowly raised his silver cane.
The next second.
Pong! !
The silver light trailed like a comet and hit a rusty black cane, making a loud and ear-piercing sound!
Chen Lun's figure suddenly appeared behind Howard, and he struck with a stick, but was blocked by the opponent's backhand. In an instant, a violent shock wave spread, and the starry sky was distorted for a moment.
"Nice strength, Jack."
Howard smiled and praised.
He suddenly increased the strength of his hand, and actually blocked Chen Lun's cane. At the same time, he turned around and kicked Chen Lun with a speed that shattered the air. With a bang, he directly kicked Chen Lun several kilometers away.
Rumbling...
The terrifying force was accompanied by strong wind pressure, and the black hat on Chen Lun's head had already blown away.
But his flying figure quickly stopped strangely, and in the blink of an eye, he returned to Howard's side again, and the silver cane fell towards him again.
Bang bang bang bang! !
The silver light turned into an afterimage and was struck hundreds of times in one breath. The power of each strike was enough to smash the high-density alloy into pieces. But Howard remained motionless, and his black cane also flashed countless phantoms, like a black epiphyllum blooming in his hands, instantly blocking the overwhelming silver light.
From beginning to end, there was an indifferent smile on His face.
In the vast starry sky, the figures of the two people have almost escaped the limit of what humans can capture, and only two distorted and blurred afterimages are seen, trembling violently.
The dazzling white light composed of Mars is like the stars in this starry sky, flickering constantly.
Woo! !
Howard once again seized the opportunity and kicked out at every opportunity, this time hitting Chen Lun straight in the chest.
Boom——
A gas explosion circle with a diameter of tens of meters emerged.
Chen Lun coughed up a mouthful of blood, and flew out like an irregularly rotating top, hitting the invisible starry sky barrier one after another, making a loud cracking sound.
With the next breath, Howard had already moved to Chen Lun in an instant, stretched out the black cane with an expressionless face, and stabbed the sharp end straight into the latter's throat.
A strong sense of danger comes through [spiritual intuition].
Chen Lun used the [Key of Life] to forcefully straighten his body that was twisted and deformed by the kick. With a clicking sound, he raised the silver cane with his right hand to block. At the same time, he flicked his left hand and unleashed a sharp square flying card. Then he arrived in front of Howard.
However, the latter tilted his head slightly like a prophet, and the red stream of light brushed against his cheek, disappearing into the depths of the starry sky.
The black cane clanged, sliding past the silver cane's defense with unparalleled power, and pierced Chen Lun's throat!
Pfft——
A handful of blood flew out.
Chen Lun endured the stinging pain and suffocation, and immediately activated the mythical creature characteristics of "golem life" to eliminate pain and breathing.
At the same time, his heart sank.
In the short few breaths he had fought with Howard, he had been in a suppressed state. Whether it was his physical fitness and close combat ability that he was proud of in the past, or his unexpected teleportation, everything was ineffective.
Both of them are high-ranking people in the destiny path, but the other party's accumulation and experience far exceed their own.
"Go!"
Chen Lun narrowed his eyes, bit the blood, and hooked his index finger.
Miso miso miso......
Thousands of poker cards surrounded his body to form a sharp strangulation storm, spinning and pounced forward!
Howard's eyes moved and he calmly glanced at the mighty torrent of playing cards, but he suddenly pulled out the black cane and kicked it out at the same time, hitting Chen Lun in the lower abdomen.
Poof——
Chen Lun flew out upside down.
With a stern look in his eyes, he forcibly used [Air Walk] to stop the inertia of flying upside down and stop his body in mid-air. The hole in his throat kept bleeding, and his body made an overwhelming gurgling sound.
Looking up, Howard was nowhere to be seen in the surging torrent of cards. The opponent obviously easily avoided his counterattack through precognition and teleportation.
‘Extraordinary people of the destiny path are indeed difficult to deal with...’
Chen Lun sighed secretly.
Now he finally understood how aggrieved his former enemies were when facing him.
Boom——
A loud noise quietly exploded from behind!
Chen Lun knew without looking back that it was a simple card flying knife, but it cut through the space with a blazing yellow light at a speed far exceeding the speed of sound!
Whoosh!
Another teleport.
Chen Lun didn't even have time to use the [Jingzhe] bookmark to instill vitality into himself, and was forced to hide. However, even so, he still felt a deep gash on his left arm.
'Too fast...'
The solemnity in Chen Lun's eyes reached the extreme.
After he teleported, he was about to find out Howard's location, but his pupils suddenly shrank because three more cards and flying knives were coming in front of him!
‘He divined my position? ! ’
This time, there seemed to be no room for dodge.
Chen Lun's eyelids twitched, and he suddenly raised his right arm and spread his fingers.
His palm instantly turned into shadow-like darkness.
"Tianfeng..."
Buzz! !
An extremely terrifying repulsive force, centered on Chen Lun, bounced around.
The three flying card knives thrown by Howard himself were distorted by this invisible "brute force". With a scream, they turned ninety degrees and flew upward, disappearing into the starry sky. Chapter 2 will be written later, beauties
