stand-in creed

"From the very beginning, I didn't expect such a good thing as killing Dio unscathed!

"Although I was hit by the table knife, but if Dior follows this trend, my corrugated knife can also... what?!"

Nero's eyes widened.

Mingming accurately calculated the trajectory of Dior's landing and the time when he landed, and used the corrugated knife to encircle and intercept Dior in all directions.

but--

Dior, who should be in midair, is already standing on the ground!

Not only was he standing on the ground, but he was even at least five meters away from the corrugated cutters all over the sky, leisurely standing next to a black limousine, posing with his body akimbo together with his stand-in world!

"Is this the substitute ability of the world? Even so!"

The blood hasn't landed yet.

The corrugated cutters all over the sky instantly changed their orbits, and Qi Qi attacked Dio who was five meters away.

Boom!

The whistling corrugated cutter accurately hit...a car in front of Dior.

"……car?!"

Nero recognized the car.

It was the black limousine next to Dior.

"Impossible! I'm staring at every movement of the "world", I'm sure and sure, Dior's stand-in didn't make any moves just now, the car appeared in Dior's body like a living person before.

"There is no process at all!

"Think about it carefully, this is the same as Dio's sudden disappearance and appearance before! Is the ability able to act on other objects besides oneself? Or something else... You have to figure it out! If you don't crack the "world" My secret, I will definitely lose! "

Nero has fully understood.

If you want to defeat Dio, you must not have half-hearted thoughts like "Although the secrets of the world cannot be cracked, as long as Dio himself is solved, the secrets of the world will not matter."

Dior's secret must be broken!

Nero A. Zeppelin, think with your little gray cells, like Agatha Christie's Hercules Polo!

"Huh? Wait!"

Blood is about to fall to the ground.

The rain is about to fall to the ground.

And when the rain was about to fall to the ground, Nero suddenly caught a sense of disobedience under the rain, and even found the source of this disobedience.

"There seems to be something wrong with the distribution of raindrops!"

It seems to be to verify Nero's guess.

"When the raindrops fell on the ground next to it, and splashed circle after circle of ripples on the puddles, there was an entire area of ​​several square meters that fell within a few tenths of a second. "No Any Ripple" was born.

"This area happens to be the belt-shaped area between the original landing point of Dior and the current position of Dior!"

And after a few tenths of a second, everything was back to normal.

But this fleeting vision has been clearly imprinted in Nero's mind.

"……illusion?

"No! This is by no means an illusion! How can human beings encounter illusions so easily! Although I don't understand it very well, although there are still many mysteries, it seems that I... have gradually touched the secret of the "world"! "

Suddenly.

In Nero's mind, a terrifying possibility was born.

Just thinking of this possibility made Nero feel a primitive emotion from his heart——

fear.

Even so, Nero still took a deep breath.

"Let me test my terrible conjecture."

Chapter 29 Streets of Ruins Part 4 ([-]K)

The emotion called "panic" spread in the hearts of the people of Cairo.

Although the residents living in the nearby blocks didn't know about ripples, vampires, or Rao Shizi's stand-in messengers, they clearly knew that their ordinary day had been broken.

A blond gringo flying in the sky for no reason.

Inexplicably, a gringo who came out with a machete to chop people up.

Cars flew up one after another inexplicably.

Everything is so inexplicable.

However, the residents don't need to understand why these people fight, why people and cars can fly, they only need to know one thing-

escape.

If you don't escape, you will die.

……

"It's useless, it's useless, it's useless!

"I've said it many times, such weak attacks are useless!"

Boom!

One car after another smashed into Dior.

Then, under the strong fist of "World", it slammed in all directions at almost the same speed, using the most primitive strength to completely resolve this terrifying attack.

Street.

Building.

dwellings.

shop.

The roar continued.

Even strong winds and heavy rains could not dissipate the chill in the air.

The entire block turned into a battlefield between Dio and Nero, and everything visible to the naked eye was smashed to pieces by the battle between the two.And all of this is no longer Nero's means to defeat Dior, but Nero is forcing Dior to show that stand-in ability again.

"--world!!!"

Dio's figure flashed around.

But Nero saw clearly this time, and as expected, Dior disappeared into the puddle on the ground of the "ribbon-shaped area" that appeared, and it was calm for a few tenths of a second.

"Sure enough, my instinct was right!

"The rain that should have fallen on the ground did not fall, as if Dior didn't disappear and then reappeared out of thin air, but walked over generously! All the rain that disappeared fell on Dior!"

thought here.

His eyes turned to a bell tower in the distance.

Nero fully understood.

It seems a bit wrong to say this in such a fierce battle, but Nero has to admit that Dio's actions now remind him of some wonderful cartoons he saw in his previous life——

"Doraemon".

Such a scene is exactly the same as when Nobita stopped Shizuka!

Dio also noticed Nero's gaze.

Standing on the shattered street, Dio smiled and opened his arms.

"It was a fair rain, don't you think so, Zeppelin."

"...?!"

"This sudden rainstorm has covered the sky for me, Dior, so that I can just find a place to take a nap at this time and I can appear on the street in a fair way-you should be annoyed by this at first. ?

"But really, the rain is fair.

"It seems that the endless precipitation provides you with inexhaustible ripple ammunition! Not only that, but the disappearing ripples let you see through my Dio's substitute ability. After all, even I, when time stops When walking in this world, you have to go through this overwhelming rain.

"The rain is like the footprints in Sherlock Holmes' eyes, showing you the truth of the "world"! "

Dior is no fool.

Even more intelligent than any enemy Nero has seen so far.

When Nero's little eyes glanced at the puddles on the ground again and again, Dio had already fully understood that the Zeppelin kid in front of him could spy on the ability of the "world" just by relying on this fleeting clue. .

"Even if you know, so what!

"Before you solve the riddle, you may still have some illusions about defeating me, Dio. But after the riddle is solved, you will be like Darby and the others, only completely dominated by fear and "invincible" by me. The world rules—

"—Time, stop! World!!!"

Dior doesn't hide anymore.

In the passionate words, Dior standing on the roof stopped time again.

Looking at Nero in mid-air more than twenty meters away, Dio couldn't help showing a mocking smile, and stepped on the edge of the building with one foot.

"A second passed."

In those two seconds, the world picked up a car.

Immediately afterwards, Shijie, who was carrying the car, kicked hard on the ground, jumped up with his own Dior, and jumped straight to the roof of the six-story residential building beside him.

"Two seconds passed."

"Just to provide me with a cloud, don't you think this heavy rain is too unfair to me? But ah, this rain is not an ordinary heavy rain, but a "thunderstorm", Zibei Forest!

"If it's a sunny day, if you see that the situation is not good, you can fly away at a height of more than a thousand meters, just like you did when you were fighting "temperance".But in this "thunderstorm", you dare not fly high at all.

"This thunderstorm has become your cage.

"If it's a distance of several thousand meters, I, Dior, might have nothing to do with you, but with such a small distance, it's easy for me, Dior.

"Three seconds passed."

Dior's gaze was fixed on Nero, who was about "30 meters" away from the edge of the residential building in front of him.

"30 meters.

"This distance, even counting the world's range of ten meters, is still far beyond my Dior's limit distance. Even if you reach the world's limit distance, and then attack with a flying knife, the flying knife will hover a few meters away from you It's hard to threaten you in the air outside, but——

"You deliberately keep a distance from all the residential buildings, do you think it's safe! Zebelin?

"That being said, with only two seconds left, it is undoubtedly impossible to get close to you who are 30 meters away, so let's restore the time for the time being, after all - just like a swimmer breathing, I Dior It only takes a short breath of time to continue to stop time!

"The joke is over, your defeat is a given, Zebelin.

"Time, flow again!"

Time returns to flow.

Nero, who had just cracked Dio's ability, suddenly found that Dio had disappeared from the street.Immediately, out of the corner of his eye, he accurately spotted Dior standing on the roof carrying a car.

Carrying a car?

What does Dio want to do?

The distance of 30 meters, close to the distance of ten floors, even if you can pause time, can you still use this car to make a fool of yourself?

"You must be wondering what I'm doing with a car on my shoulders, right?

"At the same time, you must be thinking, I, Dior, who can only stop time for five seconds, must not be able to reach your position across a distance of 30 meters, right, Nero A. Zeppelin?

"It's a pity, although you have seen through my Dio's ability, but when you were thinking about this problem, my Dio had already "breathed"!

"--world!!!"

Time stopped flowing again.

Dior stood on the edge of the residential building, while the world carried the car into the air ten meters away, and threw the car forward after reaching the limit distance of ten meters.

It seems that because of taking off the hand and losing direct contact with the world, the car only flew two or three meters forward before it was fixed in mid-air.
