Chapter 1784 King Of Bearling -Part 22
"If a few cuts are not enough, then I make sure more cuts go through!" Shai thought to herself but the limit of her stamina was beginning to show. As an assassin, the most important thing was to make sure that the enemy would be killed within the first minute of their strike. They are meant to be precise and fast to give the blow.
Yet those things had been foiled by Jin multiple times despite Shai giving her best shot at it. She was obviously no match against Jin and could only hope that the toxins would make it happen for her. Meanwhile, the System analysed the toxin that had gone into Jin's body and told him a surprisingly good fact.
"The System found that within the toxin, there were 69 poisonous ingredients within it. However, if the User were to isolate two of such toxins, the remaining 67 toxins when mixed together could actually bring benefits to the user, especially when it comes to clearing the meridians."
"Urgh, and you expect me to do this while fighting with this assassin?" Jin said to the System but in reality, he was already subconsciously breaking the toxin down with his Maqi.
"The System does not expect you to do the impossible but this is possible for you, especially with the help of your healing …factor. Isolate these two particular toxins and let your healing factor do the job. The rest of the toxins would then be able to flow through your meridians and clean it up for you so that you will feel refreshed after this."
"URghhh okay," Jin said as he did what was told by the System as he took a step back and broke off the fight. It was a small boon for the assassin leader as she could finally catch her breath. Any later and it was possible that she might go into a state of hypoxia.
Yet, that time was crucial for Jin as he was consistently fighting against the poison mixture and was searching for the two toxin compartments with the aid of his Maqi. Shai saw the change of expression on his face and thought that perhaps the toxin was indeed effective against him, it just needed more time and perhaps a larger dose.
This created confidence for Shai as she now believed that killing Jin was a possible feat. He merely had a high resistance to poison or they worked too slow against him. If anything, she respected him, and perhaps with his corpse, she might be able to formulate and create a brand new toxin that could be ideally the ultimate toxin ever.
Yet unbeknownst to her, the System was already putting out methods for Jin to try and how he could manipulate his Maqi at a molecular level. This not only improves his control of Maqi in a highly tense situation but also ensures that he can do it consistently in a fight too.
"The two toxins had been isolated. Released them now." The System said and Jin immediately took the opportunity to beat his abdomen acupoint, causing him to vomit instantly. Dark green sputum emerged out from his mouth and Shai felt even more confident that she had the winning formula to this fight.
All she had to do was to insert even more toxins into him.
Yet, when she started to put her foot forward, Jin disappeared. He was not even using the lightning flash step that he always showed to escape. This time, he was merely too fast for the eye to catch. It was as if when she blinked, he used that amount of time to move to a different location.
And this drop in her guard had nearly cost her life as she saw Jin stabbing her with her own dagger, right through her heart. "You think the toxin or this stab can kill me? And I am not dead yet." Shai said as she barely managed to use her assassin techniques to move her heart away from the stab just in time. It was an internal muscle technique that most of her elite assassins had mastered. To relocate their heart or other internal organs, the muscles might be damaged but their vital organs would not be injured.
"Oh, but you sure will be after I do this," Jin said as he held Shai's head and slammed her to the wall. After which, he twisted the dagger and flames emerged from the wound, subsequently through her orifices and later burning of her muscle and later skin.
"Your toxin is unusually flammable and also quite nourishing. Well after removing two toxins from the equation." Jin said as he twisted his dagger once more, setting her body into flames.
"What…?" Shai could not talk as her mouth was spewing with residual fire from Jin. Her brain was being burnt alive and she could not understand how the situation turned from 'killable 'to 'its impossible. She had no idea what had happened as she was being burned alive but her other Royal Assassins who were quietly watching the show finally took action to save their leader.
The only problem with that was Jin who had been cleansed by the beneficial toxins was not only clear minded but had an excess of Maqi within him that enabled him to boost himself with Green Wind Panda Energy and cut the rest down in a seamless flow of movement. It was as if he had temporarily gained perfect clarity for a short duration as the beneficial toxins ran through his body.
When he was done putting the other Royal Assassins down, Shai was already burning from the inside out. Her muscles had been melted down by the mix of fire and poison, emitting a foul smell that would even awaken a sleeping lazy Panda for him to move away from it.
"I am guessing the real threats are the Mecha Dragons. Not the Royal Guards and Assassins after all. I had overestimated them by a huge margin." Jin said as he swung his sword to remove any excess blood but it seemed like the Demigorgon was happily absorbing the rest, making it clean once more.
