Chapter 622: One Hundred Ways to Decipher the Causal Artifact
At the moment of thrusting out the spear in his hand, Cu Chulain had already thought of many possibilities.
For example, Qin Chuan barely avoided the vital point by relying on his outrageous luck, or his spear pierced Qin Chuan’s heart but did not penetrate.
But the only thing he did not expect happened – his spear flashed a blood-red light in the night sky, and then…
It pierced straight into the tree next to him!
“What!?”
Cu Chulainn’s face showed a look of astonishment – until the “Piercing Death Thorn Spear” in his hand pierced the tree trunk next to him, he found that the direction of his attack seemed to have shifted.
Cu Chulainn was not unacceptable to mistakes. In fact, who hasn’t made a few mistakes in his life – but the direction of this mistake was a bit too outrageous.
In theory, it is impossible for him to stab off the target with his spear after releasing the treasure. Even if the opponent’s luck value is high and can slightly deviate from the hit point, it is impossible for it to deviate by several meters, right?
This is no longer a mistake. It is absolutely necessary that Qin Chuan did something to make his “must-hit” shot deviate from the angle of dozens of degrees and hit the tree!
“It seems that even abilities involving cause and effect have different strengths and weaknesses.”
And Qin Chuan seemed to have expected this scene a long time ago. He slowly turned his head and looked at the tree behind him – Cu Chulain’s spear was stabbing on it.
What Cu Chulain couldn’t see was that behind Qin Chuan, the figure of “Blackbird Requiem” was slowly floating there.
That’s right, just now when Cu Chulain released the treasure, Qin Chuan used the ability of “Blackbird Requiem” to fix the result of “Cu Chulain’s spear will pierce the tree”.
This is why Qin Chuan gave Cu Chulain the opportunity to attack.
Because he wanted to take this opportunity to test, if he encountered the same ability involving “cause and effect”, could his “Blackbird Requiem” still be used normally?
It seems that there is no problem now. Qin Chuan used “Blackbird Requiem” to forcibly modify the “result” of “Piercing the Death Thorn Spear”, so that its ability of “piercing the heart” was changed to “piercing the tree”.
It didn’t even consume much “Qi” from Qin Chuan, which is enough to show how huge the gap is between Cu Chulain’s strength and Qin Chuan’s.
The reason for testing such a thing is mainly because many abilities in “Touhou Project” also involve rules.
Although in this series of works, these abilities that seem to involve rules are not strong, Qin Chuan still has to consider some preventive measures.
If the ability of “Blackbird Requiem” can cover other abilities involving rules, then Qin Chuan doesn’t have to worry about those abilities in “Touhou Project” that look very bluffing.
At least Qin Chuan’s ability strength is there. The monsters and gods in “Touhou Project” can hardly step out of the earth, so Qin Chuan naturally doesn’t have to worry.Heart.
After testing that the ability of “Blackbird Requiem” can work normally, Qin Chuan is satisfied, and Cu Chulain’s last role is over.
“It’s over, Cu Chulain, you helped me test something very important in the end – in return, I will let you die without pain.”
Qin Chuan turned and looked at Cu Chulain – at this time, Cu Chulain had pulled out the spear stuck in the tree and once again stood in a state of readiness for battle.
However, Qin Chuan will not give him any more chances this time, after all, Qin Chuan’s goal has been achieved.
“It’s not over yet!”
Cucchulain certainly will not surrender, he stabbed out the spear in his hand again – after all, he is the son of light in Ireland, as a hero in mythology, even if he knows it is impossible, he must give it a try.
“Piercing Death Thorn Spear!”
The blood-red light flashed again, piercing straight towards Qin Chuan’s heart, and this time Qin Chuan did not use “Blackbird Requiem” to change the cause and effect.
But there are too many ways to crack “Piercing Death Thorn Spear”.
“Blackbird Crimson King!”
Qin Chuan chuckled, and in his vision, the “future” had been seen-in the next short 0.1 second, his heart would be hit by the red light from Cu Chulainn’s hand.
However, Piercing Death Thorn Spear could not penetrate his body, so it only pierced his clothes, and even the aftermath completely shattered his clothes.
Qin Chuan did not want to go to the Holy Grail with his bare chest later, so Qin Chuan used “Blackbird Crimson King” without hesitation to eliminate the 0.01 second moment when the red light hit him.
By removing the time of “the moment of being hit”, the “result” of being hit can be forcibly modified – this is one of the ways used by the Crimson King in the original work.
Diablo used this trick to avoid Aerosmith’s shooting and let his bullet penetrate his body.
The next moment, time returned to reality, and Cu Chulainn was surprised to find that his “Lance of Piercing Death Thorns” had successfully hit Qin Chuan’s chest, but it seemed to have passed through Qin Chuan’s body.
It was as if the frame of “Lance of Piercing Death Thorns” hitting Qin Chuan was taken away, which produced such a weird effect.
But this time Qin Chuan did not say much, but directly raised his hand and instantly grabbed Cu Chulainn’s body with “qi”.
Cu Chulainn only felt his body stiffen and became unable to move – he tried to struggle twice, but there was no doubt that with his strength, it was impossible to break free from Qin Chuan’s “qi”.
“Don’t worry, it will only take a moment.”
Qin Chuan looked at Cu Chulainn with an ugly expression, chuckled, and then squeezed his hands hard.
Bang!
Cu Chulainn’s body instantly exploded into countless pieces, exploding in the courtyard like dynamite.
If anyone who has watched Dragon Ball is here, they will probably sigh, “It’s exactly the same way Krillin died.”
But Cu Chulainn is not Krillin after all, and there is no Kakarot who can become a Super Saiyan here – so soon, the courtyard fell into silence.
“As you can see, Lancer is dead.”
Qin Chuan gently released his hand and looked back at Bazette who was still frozen not far behind him – she seemed not to have fully reacted.
Although Bazette has a magic outfit that can kill a Heroic Spirit in seconds, she is just a magician after all, and is far inferior to a Heroic Spirit in terms of reaction speed and other aspects.
The battle between Qin Chuan and Cu Chulainn ended almost in an instant, so Bazette finally realized something until the moment Qin Chuan opened his mouth.
She smiled bitterly and looked at Qin Chuan helplessly:
“I didn’t expect it to end so soon… How can I report to the Clock Tower?”
Yes, Bazette came to participate in the war on behalf of the Magic Association – in the original work, she was killed by Kotomine Kirei before the Holy Grail War began, so naturally there was no need to consider reporting.
But now Bazette is alive and well, so she naturally has to consider how to respond after returning to the Clock Tower.
“You don’t have to worry about this.”
Hearing Bazette’s words, Qin Chuan raised his eyebrows.
“The Magic Association won’t make things difficult for you.”
Who would make things difficult for Bazette after losing to the master behind the Magic Association? .
