Chapter 6: Black Abyss Sword Chapter 6: Black Abyss Sword
The health indicator above Busujima Saeko's head also verified Lin Yi's speculation - the damage caused to Busujima Saeko by his previous attack was indeed minimal, only reducing her health by 6%, which had almost no substantial impact on her.
On the contrary, this blow seemed to have caused quite a stir in Busujima Saeko's calm heart, creating ripples all over.
Busujima Saeko's breathing became rapid, and every inhalation and exhalation seemed to have a certain rhythm, as if a powerful force was brewing.
Her long sword pointed quietly at the ground, without the tip of the sword trembling at all.
In this static state, she exudes an indescribable aura.
She stood in an extremely relaxed posture, but that kind of relaxation was not slackness, but a kind of calmness that came from a high level of concentration.
The majesty and oppression revealed in this calmness made everyone present feel an unprecedented solemnity.
Even those who don't know martial arts can feel a power that is about to explode from her, as if she is an awakened beast, ready to strike.
Lin Yi knew very well that he couldn't give Busujima Saeko more time to prepare.
He was concentrating on waiting for the opportunity. At the moment when Busujima Saeko was about to take a step, he instantly exerted force and rushed towards his opponent like a bullet.
The wooden sword in his hand gathered all the strength of his body, drew a sharp arc, and aimed directly at Busujima Saeko's vital points.
However, in the face of this sudden attack, Busujima Saeko remained unusually calm.
Her eyes revealed sharpness and determination, as if she had foreseen Lin Yi's attack route in advance.
With a light shout, the wooden sword in her hand counterattacked as fast as black lightning and pierced Lin Yi's chest.
The two wooden swords collided in the air, making a sharp sound.
Lin Yi felt the tremendous force coming from the blade, causing his arms to tremble slightly. He couldn't help but marvel at the power of Busujima Saeko.
If it was a challenge situation, Lin Yi might not hesitate to choose to take the risk and attack to decide the outcome.
But in this derivative world, facing the unknown threat of the dead virus, any wound may become a potential fatal weakness.
Therefore, Lin Yi made a wise choice. He quickly retreated and avoided Busujima Saeko's fierce attack.
When Busujima Saeko saw Lin Yi retreating, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
As Lin Yi retreated, the bloodthirsty light in Busujima Saeko's eyes gradually faded, replaced by a hint of deep thought.
"Why?" Busujima Saeko asked, with obvious confusion and doubt in her tone. She stared at Lin Yi closely, hoping to read something from his expression.
"Now is not the best time. The injury may affect the next plan." Lin Yi explained frankly, his eyes meeting Busujima Saeko's without any avoidance.
Although Busujima Saeko was not completely clear about what Lin Yi meant by the "next plan", she could feel the sincerity in Lin Yi's tone.
"Okay, since you said so, let's leave this competition for later." Busujima Saeko sighed lightly and chose to give in.
There was a hint of helplessness in her words, but more of it was understanding and respect for Lin Yi.
Although their fight was extremely short, not even a minute, it was enough to satisfy Busujima Saeko's desire to fight.
In the past, the opponents she met were often defeated in a short period of time and could hardly withstand even one of her moves.
Now, she finally met an opponent who could compete with her. Naturally, she hoped to continue this duel, to have in-depth discussions and savor the competition.
After the battle, Busujima Saeko carefully tidied up her clothes and slightly messy hair.
She raised her head and looked at Lin Yi deeply. That glance seemed to engrave his figure in her heart, leaving it forever.
Afterwards, she silently put away the wooden sword in her hand, turned around and walked out of the dim underground fighting arena that was filled with a fighting atmosphere.
As Busujima Saeko's figure gradually walked away and finally disappeared at the exit of the underground fighting arena, the audience suddenly exploded.
All eyes turned to Lin Yi, who had just fought a fierce battle with Busujima Saeko.
"Oh my god, did you see that? That guy and Busujima-senpai were fighting to a standstill!"
"Incredible, it's really incredible!"
The audience was talking about it, all of them were amazed at the amazing strength displayed by Lin Yi.
In this school, Busujima Saeko's strength is well known, and Lin Yi, who was able to fight her to a draw, naturally also demonstrated extraordinary abilities.
This result made the leaders of various societies start to consider how to recruit this new strong man into their team.
After all, Lin Yi's joining will undoubtedly bring huge competitive advantages to any club.
After the battle, Lin Yi returned to Miyamoto Rei.
As soon as he sat down, he noticed that the way Miyamoto Rei looked at him was different from before.
That look not only contained the previous innocence and curiosity, but also added a bit of admiration and appreciation.
"Miyamoto-san, do you know where to find suitable weapons?" Lin Yi asked.
Although the wooden sword in his hand had been specially treated and had good toughness, it was obviously not enough to meet the needs when fighting against the impending zombie crisis.
Miyamoto Rei hesitated for a moment, "Yes, there are, but..." She continued, "Those weapons are extremely lethal, and most people avoid using them for fear of accidents."
Lin Yi nodded to show his understanding. After all, their relationship had not yet reached the point of complete trust, and it was right to be cautious when dealing with such security issues.
He gently handed the wooden sword to Miyamoto Rei, and although she was a little confused, she took it.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened.
The wooden sword in Miyamoto Rei's hand suddenly cracked, as if an invisible force was crashing through it.
The gap expanded rapidly, and in just three seconds, the originally sturdy wooden sword broke into several pieces in her hand.
Miyamoto Rei looked at the broken sword in her hand, nodded in shock, threw it aside, and said, "Come with me."
She led Lin Yi to an old warehouse. Although the warehouse looked a bit shabby, the sturdy lock revealed that there were important things hidden inside.
Miyamoto Rei took a bunch of keys from the windowsill and skillfully opened the heavy door.
The door slowly opened, and a dusty smell blew in.
Lin Yi waited for a moment, and after making sure it was safe, he followed Miyamoto Rei into the dim warehouse.
Only a few faint rays of light came in through the window, but it was enough for Lin Yi to see the dazzling array of weapons on the shelves.
This place seems to be an ancient armory, with all kinds of weapons. They lie quietly in the dimness, as if telling stories from the past.
Miyamoto Rei pointed at the full shelf of weapons and said to Lin Yi: "Pick one for yourself, but remember to hide the weapon when you go out, so as not to scare other students."
Lin Yi's eyes quickly swept across the shelves, finally stopping on a rapier in the corner.
The rapier was about three feet and two inches long, with a blade width of about four centimeters. It had an elegant and sharp shape.
Three deep blood grooves ran across the sword, seeming to whisper about its past military exploits and bloody history.
The faint cold light emanating from the sword body is like a meteor across the night sky, both beautiful and sharp, demonstrating the ingenuity and superb skills of the swordsmith.
