Chapter 14: Making something out of nothing
Tina was also very curious when she heard Ax say that he had learned a new skill, staring at Ax with a pair of eyes, thinking that it would have any effect, but she didn't expect Ax to just slash in front of her, without any special effects, not even a splash of water was aroused. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"This is your new skill, it can't be called a bluff, right?" Tina said with a sneer.
However, Aix didn't pay attention to Tina's ridicule, and instead slashed again with great concentration. This time, Tina stopped laughing at Ax, because she noticed that there were bursts of ghostly light flickering on Aix's blade with the action of slashing, and the blade seemed to be blurred, disappearing into the void.
"What's going on?" Tina thought puzzled, at this time, the pirate was no longer visible, and Aix was not in a hurry, but kept swinging his knife at the void, could this be the new skill he said?
Just when Tina was wondering, Aix swung the third knife, and then seemed to want to cut the fourth, but unfortunately it seemed to fail, only splashing the sea water in front of him, but the blade did not have the same appearance as before.
It seems that it can only be played three times at most, and the number seems to be a little less, but it should be enough, and the effect should be real damage, because there is no obstacle to the feeling of slashing the pirate before, as if it was directly slashed on his body.
After Tina saw Ax swing four knives, she stayed in place in a daze, and finally couldn't help but ask curiously: "What is your skill, just a few random slashes here can kill your opponent?" ”
"Of course!" Ax looked at Tina's puzzled eyes and said proudly: "I named this move 'Void Blade', how about it, handsome enough, right?" ”
"Whoever asked your name, I asked you how the pirate is doing." Tina said angrily, but in fact, what she was really curious about was what the effect of Aix's skill was, but she was embarrassed to ask directly.
"Rest assured, he's dead." Ax seemed to know what the little girl cared about, and continued: "This new skill of mine can compress the space and increase the range of his attack, and the distance is not short, so the three slashes I made before were actually slashed at the pirate. ”
"But how do you know where that pirate is, he's been in the sea since he escaped, you wouldn't say that for the sake of face, would you?"
"Even if he escapes to the edge of the sky, he will be in my sight, because the collateral effect of this skill is, so the person who is hurt by my skill will leave a void energy on his body, although it can't cause damage, but it can provide me with vision, remember my Void Shadow hit him before, since then, he has been in my field of vision, so, no matter where he escapes, it doesn't matter, my knife can find him."
"Okay, if there are any questions, let's go back, if we delay any longer, we won't be able to leave when the pirate's reinforcements come." Ax stopped Tina's next question and urged directly.
Tina actually has a stomach full of questions, but what Ax said also makes sense, this is not the place to talk about these things after all, so she can only take Ax back.
After Ax and Tina left, three boats rowed over, and standing in the middle of the boat was a bald-headed one-eyed dragon, and when the three boats came to the place where Ax was fighting the pirate, the one-eyed dragon suddenly waved the boat to stop, and then craned his neck and sniffed hard, and gradually, his brow slowly furrowed.
"No need to look for him, he is dead, the enemy should be two people, and the fool should be ambushed. Everyone go back to the big ship, don't mess around with me for the last few days, stay with me honestly, and if anyone spoils the captain's plan, be careful that I peel off his skin. The one-eyed dragon said viciously to all the pirates who followed.
When Ax and Tina returned to their apartment, it was already dawn, and they had been working all night with limited gains, and when they returned, they each took a shower and went back to their respective rooms to rest. When the two of them walked out of the room, it was already afternoon, and after hastily eating something, Aix went directly to find Master Wuji Sword Saint Yi.
"Come in." After Ax knocked on the door, Master Yi's flat voice came from inside. After Ax pushed the door and entered, he saw Master Yi and the young man still sitting there as usual, and when he saw Ax come in, he motioned for him to sit down, and then he didn't say anything, as if he was waiting for Aix's explanation.
"Last night, we went to the beach and found that the pirates had arrived, and we wanted to follow them to see where their pirate ship was parked, but unfortunately we were discovered. Finally we killed one of the pirates and came back. Aix briefly said what he had done last night, and then waited for Master Yi's opinion.
"What are you going to do?" Master Yi didn't express his opinion, but instead asked Aix what he planned next.
Aix lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "I'm going to keep this matter a secret and not tell anyone. ”
"Oh?" Master Yi glanced at Aix unexpectedly, he thought that Aix would tell the city lord of Bristol about this matter and let him investigate. You know, the city lord of Bristol is not a person from Bilgewater, it is an official of Noxus, and the ultimate wish of the successive city lords of Bristol is to completely draw a line between Bristol and Bilgewater and eliminate all the influence of Bilgewater, and now is such a critical period, of course the two sides will fight, and then they can make a profit. However, Aix didn't make such a choice, which surprised Master Yi.
"Actually, I also thought about telling the city lord of Bristol about this, but even if I told him to let the two sides have a dispute, or even fight, it can't affect the overall situation, after all, they will definitely not be the only ones involved in this incident." After Ax finished speaking, he glanced at Master Yi, the meaning is obvious, since you all have people of your level in Ionia, then there must be someone from other forces who come out, even if Noxus and Bilgewater fight to the death, the competitors are only reduced by two parties, and they must also know that there are other forces eyeing each other, so even these two will not do their best, and even the pirates of Bilgewater may choose to avoid the war, At that time, the best outcome of this matter will be to warm up Noxus and Bilgewater.
"You go on, if you need our cooperation, you can ask, I think, you should want to enter the Faerie Land, I can promise you, if we get a map, I can take you in, and help you without affecting our goals." Master Yi thought carefully for a while, and then solemnly promised to Aix.
And this is exactly the answer that Ax wants, since he knew who the people who participated in the competition were, Ax had already given up his mind about the map of the Faerie Land, and his previous desire to go inside to find items to help people restore magic could only be put on hold, but he didn't expect that the Infinite Sword Saint seemed to have a good attitude towards him, so he started to think again and began to collect information alone. Now, getting the promise of the Infinite Sword Master means that the two are already in the same boat, so now Aix should be able to borrow part of Ionia's power.
Now that we have got what we want, it is of course time to show our worth, so Aix immediately cleared his throat and continued: "We found those pirates, this can only be regarded as a small matter in this incident, and what we need to do now is how to make this small matter affect as many people as possible. ”
"The reason why I concealed this matter is to let this matter ferment, if those pirates already know that they have been discovered, but none of the forces in Bristol City have behaved abnormally, then the first to suspect must be those pirates, they must think that someone wants to calculate themselves, so they must take action, and then they must alarm other forces, then, our opportunity will also appear."
"You're saying to start a big war before the map arrives? But how can you guarantee that we will be able to stay alone and not be affected? Master Yi asked with some concern, after all, the risk of doing so is a bit big, and a single negligence will play with fire and become the target of all forces.
"I can't guarantee that, but I can guarantee that we will be the least likely to lose, because everyone else will be our partner except Noxus." Aix smiled mysteriously.
After that day's discussions, Ax seemed to have returned to his previous few days' routine, stabbing from various angles every day to cultivate his strength. Contrary to Aix's calmness, the air throughout Bristol is filled with tension. This kind of aura started from the three major families, I don't know why, the three major families suddenly began to ask around for news, these actions are being done by every force, although the three major families have invested a lot of power, but no one cares at first. However, as time passed, the alert level of the three major families began to rise, as if they were ready to go to war at any time, which aroused the suspicion of other forces, and so, coincidentally, all forces began to increase their infiltration of the three major families, trying to figure out what was going on.
In fact, there was nothing, but when he preconceived that there was a problem, then as long as he tried to find it, he would definitely be able to find some problems, and this kind of creation out of nothing was just a ghost in his heart.
Sometimes, tension is contagious, but if your opponent suddenly becomes nervous and you remain indifferent, you will think that you have lost a move. No matter how you investigate, you don't know who the three major families are investigating, you will inevitably think if he is investigating himself? So, all the forces began to act, and the war was simply on the verge of breaking out.
