Marvelous Mecha

Chapter 1337: It Can't Fail


In the later stages of the Legendary Realm, the combat power value instantly soared to 10 million—this is the true strength of the Revenge Shadow Rider!

Feng Yi had actually long considered this retreat route. He couldn't possibly place all his chances on luck. Indeed, Sistine is very strong, and her speed is incredibly fast, which is an innate advantage of females, and it seems that even other races aren't exceptions.

But it's merely a speed advantage. Sistine's maximum speed barely matches his own. In fact, the fundamental issue is the vast disparity in individual strength. Had he used his full strength from the beginning, at the peak standard of the Legendary Realm, the expected outcome of this battle would significantly decrease.

Now, it's different. Through exchanges with the elite warriors of the Titan Elf Clan, the fighting process between both sides was so evenly matched and inseparable that he ultimately succeeded in identifying the opponent's true self through his tactical use, taking it down with one strike for a perfect reversal. What a perfect script! Obviously, such an ending could better arouse human enthusiasm. After all, this wasn't just any ordinary battle; win or lose, neither side could afford the other to lose too much face.

However... right at this critical moment, an unexpected situation arose. Sistine's true form suffered a fatal blow but did not immediately exit the stage. Moreover, her clones weren't affected by the condition of her true form—this was what Feng Yi had completely not anticipated.

In other words, in the situation just now, he indeed calculated that Sistine would fail, and it wouldn't be too disgraceful. Whether one calls it the Revenge Shadow Rider's feint or a strategy to lure out the opponent, Feng Yi anticipated the ending, and there was a high probability that Sistine would agree. In psychology, especially in such high-end combat, her situation is usually referred to as a "cognitive lag phase," which is a common low-key error everyone makes, without exception, including himself.

Precisely because of this, Feng Yi predicted that Sistine would inevitably realize she was deceived in an instant, and her brain would quickly reorganize her logic. At this point, it's his best opportunity to strike.

Unbeknownst to him, even after defeating Sistine's true form, the remaining clones still possessed the ability to move and attack freely. At that time, his situation was already extremely perilous, a hair's breadth from disaster, because Sistine's speed was not slower than his own.

When Feng Yi launched his first strike, his body already showed a flaw, but this attack was a surprise, with no prior prediction mechanism revealed. So when he struck at Sistine's clone, the surrounding clones were momentarily dazed... this time was very brief, almost negligible.

As Sistine spoke, revealing the position of her true form, Feng Yi did not choose to defend after attacking. Instead, leveraging his advantage of initiating an attack, he followed up with the second Falling Blade Pursuit, throwing himself into an even more passive situation.

Because Feng Yi knew one thing, one important thing that had to be spoken—the fact that usually when the true form takes damage, the clones can't remain unaffected. That's a basic principle!

In other words, since you can create clones, those clones should be considered part of your true form. After all, at the moment of their demise, they transform into a golden light and return to the true form, whether that involves continued energizing or not.

Alright then, since the true form bearing the attack is already on the verge of collapse, why, then, can the clone remain unaffected? So Feng Yi also considered that perhaps after striking the true form, the clone wouldn't suffer a fatal impact and might continue to attack him. However, this probability was minuscule. Even if the clone is unaffected, it can't remain completely unscathed.

If you're going to play like this, what essential difference does it have from me simultaneously fighting thirty real warriors?

One could say this: Feng Yi indeed fell into a cognitive trap in this regard, as he continued assessing his opponent with a human understanding.

In fact, this can't be blamed on Feng Yi. After all, the fight between the two was a matter of moments, such electrifying speed; the time left for consideration was perhaps just a flash—a very brief moment. How much can we reflect on in just a moment of time? Perhaps a lot, but that's in a state of calm meditation. Their current state was battle; Feng Yi not only had to prepare for the opponent's next move but also consider how to win elegantly.

As for failure?

Failure wasn't considered unless this warrior could defeat him in a solo combat, also ruling out the premise of using the power of laws to eliminate the opponent.

Indeed, as a warrior, in a true confrontation, Feng Yi never intended to decide the battle's outcome by relying on laws, unless you intend to use your law to destroy me, in which I won't tolerate it.

For example, the few heroic spirits ahead from the Titan Elf Clan—their weapons are indeed formidable. One can alter spatial form, moving freely, while another lady's weapon possesses the ability to penetrate objects, evidently reflecting their law strength.

The result was still harmonized by the Third Rhythm. This harmony is not limited by time, space, dimension, or any realm. Wherever thoughts extend is a node. At that moment, Feng Yi's perspective transitioned from first-person to third-person. Rather than say he was in combat, it might be more appropriate to say he was observing—observing the process of a cosmic particle form until its extinction, witnessing the shift from one to zero.

From one to zero signifies destruction.

From zero to one signifies creation.

Strictly speaking, against someone with this attribute, the Titan Elf Clan hardly stands a chance of victory. However, Feng Yi also adhered to his principles—being a silent and shy Revenge Shadow Rider, his principle was that combat is combat, boasting is boasting; the two should not be confused.

So from the start, Feng Yi hadn't decided to use his trump card.

Exactly because of this, he fell into a logic trap, and in this battle, he was evidently somewhat of a gambler. So Feng Yi gambled wrong, and even after striking the true form, Sistine's clones were still unscathed.

Now there might be many who would argue that any regular person could achieve such a combat mindset as the Revenge Shadow Rider. But put another person in his place—who could engage with Sistine? And consider it so thoroughly? They might have been overwhelmed long ago.

Furthermore, while Feng Yi placed his bet, he also left a fallback for himself, which is to augment combat power. After all, he never displayed his true strength, merely fighting Sistine at the mid-level of the Legendary Realm.

Otherwise, those supporting the Revenge Shadow Rider would already be on edge. Seeing a 10 million combat power, wouldn't they be over the moon?

So, even if Sistine's clones could spot flaws and barely keep up with Feng Yi in speed, without penetrating defenses, it remains ineffective.

Let's not mention Sistine's type of attack—Feng Yi has encountered cosmic-grade bizarre punches before. He has faced punches from Golden Titan Giants that stir raging winds, so how could he possibly fear Sistine?
