Chapter 1279 The Star Alliance - Origins (16)

“Now…” After taking down ten heroes, including the headquarters, Dr. Diandian finally stopped the slaughter and said to the Black Hole Queen, “Maybe we can sit down and talk business.”

“Business?” The Black Hole Queen repeated the word in a doubtful tone.

“You see…” the Doctor continued, “Right now, Tin Foil Man, Toad Man, and Shit Star Captain haven’t died yet…”

Clearly, Dr. Diandian was only interested in these cosmic-level heroes, while Brother Jue, a galaxy-level hero from the future… was completely ignored by him.

“I can take their lives immediately, or I can let them live…” Dr. Diandian said, “And your attitude towards this matter may change my decision.”

He finished speaking and waited a few seconds, but the Black Hole Queen did not respond.

So, the Doctor continued, “Maybe I didn’t express myself clearly enough…” He paused for half a second, then added, “Let’s put it this way… At this moment, the three of them ‘have already’ been defeated by me, and their abilities have also been acquired by me; under this premise, I don’t need to kill them all, of course, I need a motive to spare their lives…”

“You want me to help you find the other three artifacts of the Nihil Emperor?” the Black Hole Queen asked, following Dr. Diandian’s meaning.

“Since you understand, then…” Dr. Diandian said, and walked to Shit Star Captain, who was closest to him, and raised a hand towards the Captain on the ground, the meaning being… if the Black Hole Queen rejected his deal, then he would immediately kill the Captain.

“I’m really confused…” However, the Black Hole Queen’s reply was, “On what basis did you deduce… that ‘I might negotiate with you’?”

“Hmph… it seems you don’t care about these people’s lives at all?” Dr. Diandian snorted coldly.

“That’s why I said… you know nothing about me.” The Black Hole Queen replied, “This kind of deal that resembles a ‘threat’ is, in my opinion, just a foolish act derived from your poor understanding of ‘time’ and ‘causality’.”

“Then there’s no room for negotiation…” Dr. Diandian finished speaking and flung a wave of energy towards the Captain.

However, his attack… did not land on the Captain as he had imagined.

Because, at the moment his energy wave was released, the Captain was no longer in his original position…

“Hmm?” At that moment, Dr. Diandian’s peripheral vision seemed to see something, he immediately turned his head and found… a figure wearing a purple suit had already carried the Captain to the side of Tin Foil Man and Toad Man, and slowly put him down.

“Toad Man should have emergency medicine on him.” When Feng Bujue put the Captain down, he said to Tin Foil Man next to him.

“Uh…” At this time, Tin Foil Man was undoubtedly very surprised, firstly, he was surprised that Brother Jue could successfully save the Captain, and secondly, he was surprised at the amazing speed with which Brother Jue saved the Captain, “There should be…”

“Then I’ll leave this to you.” Brother Jue said, and stood up.

And just as he stood up, Dr. Diandian’s figure had already rushed over, and a poisonous arm was reaching straight down.

This time, the Doctor’s sneak attack did not use a ranged energy wave, because after seeing Brother Jue’s move just now, he knew… with the opponent’s speed, any long-range attack would be extremely difficult to hit.

So, he chose to use close combat to deal with it directly.

Anyway, the current Doctor has Mr. Crappy’s strength, Toxic Man’s poison attribute, and Lucky Man’s luck, so he is also invincible in close combat.

Theoretically… that’s how it is…

But…

“It really is the reaction I expected…”

When Feng Bujue’s lazy voice sounded, Dr. Diandian’s attack had already missed, and… the scenery in front of him had also changed abruptly, which surprised him slightly.

“Hmm?” Two seconds later, Dr. Diandian reacted, he looked at Brother Jue, who had retreated several meters away, and muttered, “You actually have teleportation abilities?”

“This move of mine… is called Flying Sand Revolving in the Wind.” Feng Bujue replied calmly.

The sneak attack from behind just now, as Brother Jue said… was within his expectations. If he wanted to dodge, it wasn’t like he couldn’t.

However, in order to prevent Dr. Diandian’s attack from affecting the three heroes next to him who had lost their combat power, Brother Jue changed his posture and turned around, wrapped his arms and leaned forward… grabbed Dr. Diandian’s shoulder, and activated the skill.

In this way, while he dodged the attack, he could also take Dr. Diandian fifty meters away, temporarily away from the other heroes.

“Hmph… call it whatever you want.” Dr. Diandian continued, “Anyway, it will soon become my ability.”

“Hehe…” Feng Bujue chuckled twice, “So… you really think I can’t beat you, huh?”

“Before you ask this kind of question, why don’t you take a look at your hand first?” Dr. Diandian was also confident, and replied in the same calm tone.

“Hand?” When Feng Bujue said this word, he had already raised the hand that had touched Dr. Diandian; although it had only been a dozen seconds from the touch to now, his hand… had already been infected with poison and turned purple, “Oh… you want to use this kind of poison to get rid of me?”

Before his voice fell, a black energy like a flame ignited on his arm, and wherever the demonic flame passed… the poison was hard to grow, and Brother Jue’s hand instantly returned to its original color.

“That’s… what?” This time, Dr. Diandian was really curious, because the ability that Feng Bujue showed was enough to make him pay attention.

“Unlike your ‘biological-level’, roundabout ways of resisting poison…” Feng Bujue didn’t mind explaining these to him, “There are many high-level existences in the multiverse who are not affected by ‘poison’ at all; the power of the Fighting Demon that I now possess allows me to neutralize this kind of powerful poison like breathing.”

There is no doubt that Brother Jue had already activated [Fighting Demon Descent] at this time, which is why… he gained that incredible speed and could use other skills.

In fact, Feng Bujue had already thought about it, using [Fighting Demon Descent] as a life-saving means in emergencies.

Since the consumption of this title skill is not a fixed value, but a description of "all survival, stamina, and spiritual power values"; therefore, no matter how much his upper limit of these three values ​​is reduced, or how much the specific values ​​are consumed… he can release it.

And in the three minutes after demonization, the limitations of his physical fitness will be lifted, his survival value will break through the upper limit and become 300%, and his stamina and spiritual power values ​​will simply be positive infinity…

Although he cannot enjoy equipment bonuses and use items (except for psionic weapons) during this period, dealing with enemies like Dr. Diandian… those “metaphysical” things (of course, causal weapons like razors do not belong to the metaphysical category) are useless.

“Power of the Fighting Demon, huh…” Dr. Diandian muttered, “A power I’ve never heard of… but I don’t think it will pose any threat to me.”

“Why?” Feng Bujue said, “Just because you can infinitely heal yourself?”

“Just infinite self-healing is not enough to give me full confidence.” Dr. Diandian replied, “After all… there are still some ways to destroy me to the point where nothing is left.” He paused, and then said, “For example… Tin Foil Man’s molecular collapse cannon, if its output rate is increased several times, and my entire body is covered in the attack range, it can destroy me.” He paused, “For another example… the ‘reverse toxin’ that Toad Man previously injected into me, which targets my self-healing power, if its toxicity is stronger, it is likely to kill me before I can react…”

At this point, everyone knows he’s going to say "but".

“But…” Dr. Diandian lived up to expectations and said, “These assumptions have not come true… Tin Foil Man’s energy is simply not enough to support until I am completely incinerated, so I left behind residual limbs; the effect of Toad Man’s venom is simply not fast enough, so I had enough time to use the power of the King of Myriads of Insects to change my DNA structure…” He spread his hands, “These… ‘things that have already happened’ are by no means accidental ‘luck’, but the inevitable result guided by the power of ‘luck’… It is this ‘inevitability’ that transcends probability that allows me to stand at the same height as ‘God’.”

When he said the word “God”, he did not forget to look at the Black Hole Queen, as if he was announcing something.

“Oh… is that so.” Feng Bujue said, “Then… how did Lucky Man, who once possessed that ‘inevitability’, die?”

“Didn’t you hear what I said to Tin Foil Man just now?” Dr. Diandian replied in a slightly impatient tone, “I launched an ‘attack from another dimension’ on him in another dimension, in this case, the power of luck in this universe will naturally not react…”

“In other words…” Feng Bujue interrupted the other party and said in a summarizing tone, “As long as you find the right method, even an individual with the ‘power of luck’ can be destroyed.”

The tone and expression he used when he said this made Dr. Diandian instinctively realize something…

Instantly, Dr. Diandian’s expression changed drastically: “Could it be… you also possess abilities similar to Thousand-Eyed Man and King of Myriads of Insects…”

Given that Brother Jue has now demonstrated more than three kinds of abilities, the Doctor had to make such an assumption.

“That’s not the case…” Feng Bujue replied, “It’s just… I myself come from another universe… this reason is enough for me to ignore your power of luck, right?”

Dr. Diandian did not answer this question, because when he heard the part about “another universe”… he already knew that there was no need to continue this conversation.

If he wanted to become a cosmic overlord, this “Poker Man” had to be eliminated, there was no room for negotiation…

So, the Doctor launched another surprise attack, before Brother Jue finished speaking, the Doctor’s eyes had already released energy waves.

“I told you that your reaction was expected…” Feng Bujue dodged the opponent’s attack with ease, while moving at high speed, he said in a weak tone, “Is the next step to use energy waves to attack Tin Foil Man and the others, in order to force me to forcefully eat your attack?”

What Brother Jue is doing now… is what the Black Hole Queen can do, but never does.

That is—to reveal the actions that the other party will implement in the future.

This kind of "revealing" sometimes does not have any impact on the future, but sometimes it changes the other party's thinking, leading to the future also changing, and then this sentence will fall through.

Similarly, in addition to "revealing", "interference" in action is more direct, basically 100% will change the future.

Therefore, the Black Hole Queen would definitely not do similar things, because every small interference may have unpredictable effects on the future timeline, and the consequences of these effects… some can be corrected, and some cannot. Constantly interfering with the future means that the act of "predicting the future" becomes futile and absurd, because every action of yours creates a brand new situation, you yourself become a constantly triggering "unpredictable" variable, and this one variable is enough to make all the "predictable" things on the entire timeline meaningless.

“Then I’ll do as you wish…” On the other hand, after hearing Brother Jue’s words, Dr. Diandian resolutely chose to do so.

The Doctor belongs to the type of…"Even if you use reverse psychology on me, I'll still do what I'm supposed to do," basically he won't change his course of action because of the opponent's provocation.

“You’re overthinking it, right?” As a result, before the Doctor could turn his face, Brother Jue appeared next to him, while saying these five words, he activated [The Naughty Child's Low Sweep Kick].

“Aiya—” The next second, Dr. Diandian fell to the ground in an embarrassing cry.

Similar to the Headquarters' previous move of "Severing Yang and Shattering Jade", this is also a completely illogical move that deeply shocked the Doctor.

“You better figure out… the biggest difference between you and me at this moment… is speed.” When Feng Bujue said this, he had already summoned [Mad Poker], and held a card in each hand, and quickly cut at the fallen Dr. Diandian like he was mincing meat, “Me hitting you is like a cheetah pouncing on a sloth, Quicksilver beating Li Qing… before you even see me, I’ve already gone around twice.”

Brother Jue is telling the truth, if he really wanted to go up and hit him, he could settle things in a few seconds.

But he didn't do that, instead he talked nonsense with the other party for a long time, looking like he wanted to delay time…

Why is that?

The reason is also very simple, although Feng Bujue can easily knock the Doctor down, or even turn him into mud, but… he really can’t “beat the Doctor to the point where nothing is left”.

Because… among the dozen or so skills he carries, there is no [Spirit Bomb]…
