Academy City's Puppet Master

His body was staggering, his head was drooping, his arms were hanging limply on his sides, and he looked shaky.

...like a puppet manipulated by a novice.

Ling Xingye flicked his fingers, and the nineteen strands wrapped around his body, a total of [-] silk threads, moved at the same time to help him resist the abnormal gravity.

"Human body manipulation", at the critical moment, Ling Xingye used silk threads to manipulate himself and escaped.

"Eldest brother, this is serious." Ling Xingye was afraid.

Even though he had awakened a long time ago, he still didn't really regard Ling Changyun as a life and death enemy, but this moment made him completely sober.

"Being merciful is a privilege only for the strong. Right now, I don't have that kind of leeway."

Ling Xingye let go of the control of his body, and with the help of the silk thread, he slowly returned to an upright posture.

At the same time, sprites rushed towards Yunji with heavy steps.

——It’s only a dozen times the gravity, which is not a problem for sprites at all.

Facing an extremely unfavorable situation, Ling Xingye chose to attack!

Sprites are not human, without fragile internal organs and joints.It is an almost solid puppet, coupled with the extremely tough silk "flying blade", and the "complex mechanism" that can output unlimited power...

All this allows the sprite to forcefully fight "normally" regardless of the added gravity.

Arriving in front of Yunji, Yaoyao brazenly swung her knife and chopped it off.

Yun Ji ignored the attack that was close at hand, and flung out her long sleeves with dance-like movements.

As soon as the silk sleeve was released, it made a heavy sound of piercing through the air, as if what she threw was a meteor hammer.

Yunji's water sleeves were heavy, and the last shot hit Yaoyao's chest first.

The silk threads all over Sprite's body loosened -- it was pulled up into the air by this sleeve, and flew backwards!

At that moment, Ling Xingye only felt that the monster was like paper, so light that it was almost weightless... No wonder it was blown away by a sleeve.

While manipulating the sprites to the ground to gain a firm foothold, Ling Xingye looked at his hand thoughtfully.

——In order to avoid conflicts, when using "human manipulation" to control himself, Ling Xingye will give up using his own muscles and nerves for actions, and completely hand over his body to the control of silk threads.

In this mode, Ling Xingye felt disobedient.

He didn't feel it when manipulating the sprites, but when he switched to manipulating his own body, Ling Xingye immediately discovered that it wasn't a problem of "gravity", but a change of "weight".

The so-called "ten times the gravity" is just a direct effect.

Because gravity is not evenly distributed—specifically, what gets heavier is Ling Xingye's internal organs and bones.

So as long as you try to exercise vigorously, just relying on your own weight can crush him and cause serious damage to his body.

Relying on silk thread for external force, on the contrary, greatly reduced the damage.

This can also explain why a mere cloud can exert the terrifying power of breaking mountains and cracking rocks.

What the big brother really manipulates is quality!

Ling Xingye's heart turned like lightning, and he figured out the mystery of the elder brother's ability.

But that doesn't make much sense in the current situation.

Ling Xingye has no way to crack this ability.Therefore, he could only fight hard, and he had to take the lead in defeating the elder brother before he was crushed.

Ling Xingye's eyes froze, and the small cubes in the air started to move crazily.

- Mode switching!

Sprite raised his head, his face had changed into a ghostly one.

With a shake of his figure, the ground under his feet exploded, and the sprites rushed towards the enemy in front like a cannonball.

Run a few steps, stop suddenly, twist your waist, and stretch your arms!

With the help of the inertia generated by the extra weight, the sprite threw the wrist knife.

With a bang, Yun Ji and Ling Changyun sideways dodged one after another, and the wrist knife smashed on an abandoned building in the distance, and the entire wall collapsed!

After abandoning the main weapon, the wrist knife, the monster's movements became more wild, and he bent his fingers into claws, digging down on the enemy!

With a stabbing sound, Yunji's water sleeve was torn open.

Two of Sprite's fingers were also broken, but it immediately clenched its fist and blasted forward.

boom!

Even if the quality of the sprite has been reduced as much as possible, Ling Xingye has given it enough speed.

Under the correction of speed, this punch played at a normal level.

Yunji received a punch and fell back.

Ling Xingye gained power and was not forgiving, and immediately manipulated the sprites to pursue him.

Fight close!The sprites pressed forward step by step, punching like the wind.

There are no moves, just a burst of "Ola Ola Ola Ola" stance output, not giving the enemy any chance to breathe.

This is the skill Ling Xingye learned in the bloody battles with Accelerator.

It is said to be "mode switching", but it is actually a state of being desperate after going crazy.

When Ling Xingye replayed those battles through the memory palace, he refined this state and turned it into a relatively controllable mode.

In short, it is a simple and pure fighting and killing technique.

Ling Xingye, who was born in a circus... No, not only Ling Xingye, but also Ling Changyun and the puppet masters of the Ling family class. Their silk-drawing operas all have a strong stage performance style.

This is a genre that combines performance and actual combat.

This kind of silk-drawing play born out of stage performances is used in actual combat. In fact, many actions and operations are redundant.

Ling Xingye, who has experienced many battles, deleted these unnecessary "excess parts" through his own practical experience, leaving behind a puppet show purely for fighting.

This brand-new model, even the elder brother Ling Changyun couldn't see through it.

Yun Ji was forced to step back step by step, and just when Ling Xingye was about to knock down the elder brother in one go, Yun Ji suddenly stood firm, stretched out her hands, and grabbed the fist of the monster.

"Do you think this bastard punch can last forever?" Ling Changyun sarcastically said.

Yunji grabbed the sprite and lifted it over her head, and smashed it to the ground.

===Chapter five hundred and seventy-four the wind is blowing===

boom!

boom!

boom……

The dull sound echoed in the mist, stirring up faint air waves.

They were obviously just two puppets of normal human size, but during the battle between Yaoyao and Yunji, they made noises as if giants were fighting.

The ground under his feet has been repeatedly ravaged, and it has long been changed beyond recognition, full of potholes.

The sprites are bare-handed, but their gestures are as if they are tied with heavy lead weights, and they are not as crisp and swift as the wind in the past.

On the other hand, Yunji was graceful and nimble as always, but every blow was powerful and heavy. The pits on the ground were almost all caused by her.

Not long ago, Ling Xingye switched the battle mode, but the battle situation did not tilt in his favor.

Perhaps at the beginning, Ling Changyun was taken aback, coupled with the fact that he could not continue to read the sprite's movements, he fell into a temporary disadvantage.

But after getting used to it, he immediately regained the initiative to fight.

Trapped in Ling Changyun's "field", Ling Xingye was already in an extremely unfavorable state, and the so-called "mode switching" could only barely allow him to exert his combat effectiveness under normal circumstances.

There is still a long way to go to defeat the eldest brother Ling Changyun.

boom!

Sprites don't know how many times they were thrown to the ground.

Seeming to have finally lost interest in it, Yun Ji bypassed the sprites and flew directly towards Ling Xingye.

Ling Xingye retreated quickly, and manipulated the sprites to stand up and return to intercept.

However, affected by the abnormal gravity, both the puppeteer and the puppet are much slower than usual.

Ling Xingye could only watch helplessly as Yunji's palm pressed towards his chest...

boom!

As if a dull drum sounded, Ling Xingye paused, swayed twice, and fell straight backwards.

At the same time, the sprites suddenly fell apart and collapsed to the ground.

Yun Ji stood back and didn't make up for the last blow--Ling Changyun didn't mean to kill him.

"It's not bad until now." Ling Changyun walked over, "But it's weaker than I expected..."

Suddenly, the fallen Ling Xingye's chest exploded.

Two cans of quick-setting spray exploded, and the substances inside expanded rapidly and solidified when encountering air, enveloping Yun Ji who was close at hand.

At the same time, the rubble of the ruins nearby exploded, and a figure jumped out of it, heading straight for Ling Changyun!

"As expected!"

Ling Changyun was flustered but not flustered, and turned around to look.

It was Ling Xingye who came, who used a double puppet as a bait to trick Kai Yunji, and personally attacked the puppet master who manipulated her.

"What a steal!" Ling Changyun was startled and furious—he actually played this kind of cover-up under his nose!

Even with the cover of fog, it is theoretically impossible.

The only explanation is that Ling Xingye's techniques and skills have reached or even surpassed Ling Changyun's level.

Zheng!

Ling Xingye slashed out the flying blade, and Ling Changyun also slashed out his own silk thread.
