From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star

Hearing Ono Kenji's words, Lu Heng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

When he saw Tsugawa Hideyoshi just now, Lu Heng had thought that one of the two team contract spots requested by Ono Kenji would probably be Tsugawa Hideyoshi.

Now that I heard him say it himself, I was still a little surprised.

Yesterday, when I broke through the realm of swordsmanship, I watched the video of Tsugawa Hideyoshi and simulated his retreat skills in my mind, and finally succeeded in breaking through the bottleneck of swordsmanship.

According to the known information, Tsugawa Hideyoshi is indeed very strong. If they fight head-on, it is hard to say who has a higher level of swordsmanship.

Lu Heng has the memory of being reborn three years ago, and Tsugawa Hideyoshi was already the champion of the Fuso Kendo competition three years ago.

People who can reach the top in a certain field have far more perseverance than ordinary people.

If we don't discuss identity and personality, but just talk about combat ability, Tsugawa Hideyoshi is definitely strong enough to become a teammate.

However, when looking for teammates, you don’t just look at strength, trust is more important.

Lu Heng looked into Ono Kenji's eyes and asked, "What about the other spot?"

Ono Kenji did not answer immediately, but after thinking for a moment, he said: "I can't tell you about the other quota yet, but I can guarantee that the other person will definitely not hold you back."

Relying on the multinational consortium behind the Chun Shang Group, this company can spend 650 million to buy two places, and can also use the top ten masters of Fuso Kendo as bodyguards.

What is the identity and background of this person?

"What do you think, Mr. Lu?" Ono Kenji asked again.

"I'm curious, can't you find any other way to protect people? You would rather have three people in a team who are not under your control." Lu Heng stared into his eyes.

"Because I believe in Mr. Lu's character, and I also hope to become friends with Mr. Lu." When Ono Kenji answered, his tone was very sincere.

Anyone else might have been moved by his sincerity.

only.

Lu Heng was too aware of how cruel the era of abyss invasion was.

[Team Contract] It is true that five people can be signed, but the people who join can also disappear, as long as they die.

In other words, after the two opponents join the team, they can use off-site power to artificially control the number of people in the team.

Moreover, reducing the number of people in the team can also lower the team's combat power rating when it is drafted.

That is to say.

[Team Contract] The upper limit is five people, but it doesn’t have to be five people.

certainly.

Lu Heng also believed that Ono Kenji must be trying to win over him. After all, the value of a tempering master at this stage is far more than that of a top superpower.

However, the benefits have a limited value, and if the person he wants to protect is in danger, even the Tempering Master can be discarded.

Lu Heng could probably imagine that if he really agreed to the other party's request, he would give them two places to form a team.

Then, Chunshang Group should provide enough benefits to reconcile with the Lin family.

Coupled with the existence of the team contract, it is indeed possible to resolve this matter peacefully and form a team that is very strong on paper.

However, this kind of fragile team relationship is not what Lu Heng wants.

"Forget it, I have other plans for team building." Lu Heng finally chose to refuse.

Ono Kenji's expression froze, and then he glanced sideways at Tsugawa Hideyoshi.

Tsugawa Hideyoshi asked: "Do you think my strength makes me unqualified to be your teammate?"

Lu Heng looked at him, smiled sarcastically, and replied, "That's not the case."

Tsugawa Hideyoshi stood up and challenged in a solemn tone: "I am the successor of Kashima Shinto-ryu swordsmanship. I heard that you also use a sword, so use the sword to make your decision.

"Let's have a competition. If I win, I will take out the two quotas in the team contract. Do you dare to compete?"

"What if I win?" Lu Heng asked rhetorically with a smile on his face.

This time.

Ono Kenji took out a jewelry box, placed it on the table, opened it and displayed it.

Inside is a cast iron ring, the same ring that sold for 80 million at the last auction.

And this ring is called [Psychic Resistance Ring].

During the auction, the properties of this ring were displayed on the display.

[Psychic Resistance Ring: Improves resistance to mental attacks and mental pollution. When subjected to mental pollution or mental attacks, the effect is reduced by 50%. 】

This ring is very practical.

Wearing this ring can last longer when encountering mental pollution in the abyss battlefield.

For example, last time, when Lu Heng entered the abyss world to kill the Horned Demon Governor, if he had this ring, he would have much more time and would not have to be so anxious.

In addition, resistance to psychic attacks has also been improved.

For example, mental shock skills will cause mental shock for a certain period of time based on the difference in mental attributes. If the mental difference is too great, you may even faint.

In a close battle, if you receive a mental shock and your consciousness is in a trance for a few seconds, you will be dead.

By wearing this mental resistance ring, you can gain higher resistance to mental attacks and recover faster from mental shock trances.

Therefore, the lower the mental attributes of the superpower, the higher the demand for this ring.

Lu Heng's mental attributes were not low, but facing the mental pollution in the abyss battlefield, this ring was also a practical treasure.

At the last Zhizhen auction, Lu Heng was very interested in this ring.

This ring itself does not increase combat power, and Lu Heng thought that no one might know the value of it.

If the auction price is not high, you can try to get it at a low price.

As a result, there were people who knew the value of it at the scene, and the price was directly raised to 80 million, far beyond the affordable range.

Unexpectedly, this ring appeared in front of him again.

Ono Kenji smiled and said, "If Mr. Lu wins, how about giving you this ring?"

Lu Heng was very interested in this ring at the auction, but it was a pity that the price was too high. Now the other party actually used it as a bet, which was exactly what he wanted.

"Okay, then let me experience the swordsmanship of the Shinto-ryu."

"Mr. Lu, please."

The three walked out of the tea room and came to another kendo room.

This room is very spacious and quiet.

"Usually, Tsukawa Hideyoshi practices swordsmanship here, so you can compete here." Ono Kenji waved to the maid at the door.

Two maids came in with two wooden swords and handed them to Lu Heng and Tsukawa Hideyoshi respectfully.

This kind of wooden sword is a weapon used in Fuso Kendo competitions. The sword is relatively thick, has no sharp edge, and the tip of the sword is round.

In Kendo competitions, the winner is determined by scoring, and one point can be scored by hitting the effective part of the opponent's body.

Usually during the competition, both sides of the competition need to wear protective gear to prevent being injured by the sword.

Although it is a wooden sword, it still has a certain weight. If you are hit in the head without protective gear, you may faint.

Two maids came in with two sets of protective gear and prepared to help the two put on protective gear.

Lu Heng looked at the wooden sword in his hand. For a superpower, using a wooden sword is already a piece of cake, so he said: "Protective gear is unnecessary, right?"

"I don't like protective gear either." Tsukawa Hideyoshi waved his hand and asked the two maids to retreat.

He didn't even like wooden swords and wanted to fight with real weapons.

However, this competition was arranged by Ono Kenji, with the purpose of letting him conquer Lu Heng with swordsmanship and then win him over.

Lu Heng swung the wooden sword a few times. Since this kind of wooden sword is unique to Fuso and he had never used it before, he was not very used to it. When performing the Seven-section Step Sword Style, he was somewhat uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the strength attribute was high enough, so this discomfort was within the tolerable range.

"Please!" Tsukawa Hideyoshi saluted and made a competition move according to the etiquette of Fuso Kendo.

Lu Heng also raised his sword, adjusted his breathing, and stared at the opponent's eyes with lightning.

Since he had watched the opponent's game video before, he knew that the opponent's swordsmanship level was very high, and after three years, it would definitely be higher, so he had to be careful.

"Hah!"

Tsukawa Hideyoshi waited for Lu Heng to get ready, then shouted and started to attack. The first move was a one-point skill, hitting Lu Heng's arm.

This move is the basic fighting skill of the Nine Forms and Thirteen Swords of Fuso Kendo, and the purpose is to score.

As long as it hits, you can get one point, which is one point.

For ordinary people, a skill that attacks the hand may be useful, but for a supernatural person with an agility of 62 points, there are too many ways to dodge attacks with the arm, and a slight movement of the arm can dodge.

As if he had expected it, Hideyoshi Tsukawa suddenly flashed with brilliance in his eyes, and instantly changed his moves to use a nine-type thirteen-sword combo, quickly chasing.

Lu Heng had never practiced Fuso Kendo, so his fighting style was completely based on the seven-section style of the step sword. He also guessed the opponent's combo attack, swung the sword to block twice, and easily took this combo.

Two consecutive extremely fast attacks were easily caught by Lu Heng, and Hideyoshi Tsukawa finally confirmed that Lu Heng was not an opponent who could be easily defeated.

Three years ago, when he became the Fuso Kendo champion, he was already recognized as one of the top ten masters of Fuso Kendo.

At that time, there were few people in Fuso who were qualified to be his opponent, let alone those who did not understand swordsmanship.

Three years later, he became a supernatural person and gained extraordinary power.

If someone doesn't know swordsmanship, he can't even take a single move in front of him, even if he is a supernatural being.

Lu Heng easily cracked his two attacks. Although he used basic fighting skills, which seemed not sophisticated and cunning, the more basic the swordsmanship, the more effective it was.

Tsukawa Hideyoshi's breath calmed down, and he began to concentrate on responding, ready to use his true strength.

Lu Heng also felt the change in his breath, and also lowered his center of gravity, officially entering the combat state.

It was a rare opportunity to be able to compete with a powerful kendo master.

Especially when swordsmanship needs to be constantly improved, it is more necessary to compete with the same level to break through the bottleneck.

Lu Heng also wanted to try whether the swordsmanship that broke through to the realm of artistic conception could suppress this Fuso kendo master.

Hehe!

Both sides held the idea of ​​competing with each other, and shouted at the same time.

Bang bang bang...

More than a dozen swords collided continuously, and the speed of the swordsmanship was so fast that it far exceeded the scope of the original swordsmanship.

Lu Heng used the basic sword techniques of chopping, stabbing, tapping, collapsing, picking, slashing, and sweeping.

Tsukawa Hideyoshi used the nine-type thirteen-sword fighting method to fight fast with fast.

The two men moved forward and backward, their movements were so fast that ordinary people could hardly catch them with their naked eyes. In a few breaths, they had exchanged more than a dozen moves, and the fight was evenly matched and difficult to determine.
