Chapter 451 Perception Competition
"Hey, is this how you use the Wanglong Sword?"
The little god started to complain.
The King Dragon Sword possesses the ability to manipulate gravity. It can be activated using either battle aura or magic, but among all the previous owners of the King Dragon Sword, Broly is probably the only one who would directly apply the effects of gravity to himself.
"You don't understand, I'm using weights to train my body."
The newly acquired sword was far more useful than the heavy armor worn by Atofi's guards during their weight training. Although the sword also came with other abilities, such as allowing the wielder to fly or concentrating gravity to create terrifying explosive slashes, Broly felt that none of them were as useful as applying gravity to himself.
"Croly, according to you, your body resets to the state it was in when you first came to this world with each reincarnation. Can the enhancements you gain through training be carried over to the next reincarnation?"
"Well……"
The words spoken by the little god in the eighth playthrough silenced Broly, who thought the sword was useful.
Every time the cycle of reincarnation resets, he is reset along with it. In addition to his memories, even the things belonging to this world that exist in the Crystal Palace are also reset.
"At least I've obtained a sturdy sword."
Broly consoled himself for a moment, then complained to the little god, "I told you I wanted someone with superb combat skills, but how did we end up with that guy from before?"
"Didn't his bizarre sword technique almost cut you in two?"
"That's not the opponent's swordsmanship, but rather the ability to manipulate gravity purely through this sword."
"The Northern God School is like this; they acknowledge that external objects are also part of their own strength."
The little god shrugged.
"Alright, then I hope the next expert we find won't rely on external tools, but will possess truly superb combat skills."
Having obtained the Dragon King Sword, Broly, who was not entirely satisfied with his opponent Alexander, corrected his requirements to the little god and continued along the path from his previous playthrough.
During this time, he found some new opponents, but perhaps due to his improved skills, he gained little from fighting them in this playthrough.
"There are fewer experts on the continent of Milis, but the Demon Continent is different; the Demon King here..."
"Let's not talk about the Demon King. I've fought against several Demon Kings from the Demon Continent. Most of those guys rely on racial advantages in battle. I've never encountered anyone with truly high combat skills."
I said, "If there aren't enough skilled fighters on the Demon Continent, I won't waste my time here."
"A guy with extremely high combat skills, well, that can only be him. However, I think you shouldn't have too high expectations. Compared to that guy, Dragon God Orstide, he's just a small fry. Besides, that guy..."
Who are you talking about?
Before the god could finish speaking, Broly interrupted him, saying that he had fought some of the experts from the Demon Continent last week.
However, there are indeed very few masters in terms of combat skills.
Of course, it's not that the people on the Demon Continent aren't strong; it's just that the races on the Demon Continent have a physical advantage over the races on other continents, which leads to them being somewhat rough in terms of combat skills.
Their fighting style largely relies on the advantages afforded to them by their race, such as the Undying Demon King's ability to regenerate after being torn to pieces, a technique Broly cannot learn.
If the opponent doesn't have sophisticated combat skills, then besides beating them up, Broly won't gain anything else from the fight.
"You're really in a hurry."
"Who told you to point me to people who are all unreliable? They're either people I've already beaten, or they're all talk and no action."
For example, the Northern Emperor in Tinno Town of the Holy Kingdom of Milis is a complete fraud.
But you knew absolutely nothing about it, which makes me start to doubt whether you, this deity, are even real...
"That bluffing guy has strong luck, so it's not my fault. Alright, alright, Broly, this time it's absolutely genuine."
The little god raised his hands in surrender, and Broly, seeing his confident demeanor, shut his mouth.
"However, the next guy is more lenient with kids. If you challenge him to a fight, he probably won't be willing to fight you."
"Where is he?"
"exist……"
. . . .
In the Herath region, on the edge of the Evil Forest, a green-haired man with a ruby on his forehead is warming himself by a fire.
Suddenly, he sensed some presence coming from above, so he cautiously picked up the spear beside him and looked up at the sky.
Broly was descending from the sky riding on the Dragon King Sword. It must be said that although flying with this thing is not fast, it is relatively energy-saving.
"Hello, my name is Broly. You must be Mr. Rigellud of the Speylud tribe?"
Broly landed in front of the green-haired man and took the initiative to strike up a conversation.
【child?】
Rijerud was a little surprised that the boy had come from the sky, but when he realized that the aura he suddenly sensed belonged to a child, rather than a magical beast that had come to raid him at night, he relaxed his serious expression.
"I am...Rigid Rudd, aren't you afraid of me?"
The green-haired man's voice was somewhat hoarse, as if he hadn't spoken to anyone in a long time.
Why should I be afraid of you?
Broly found it strange.
"Because I am a Spelud."
Broly looked at the little god with some confusion.
"More than four hundred years ago, during the Battle of Laplace, the Spelud were the personal guards of the demon god Laplace. The warriors of this race were brave and skilled in battle, but they were used as tools by Laplace."
He was given the cursed spear by Laplace, and during the war, the curse turned him into a berserker who lost his mind and killed indiscriminately, causing fear to all the participating races.
After the war ended, the adults of the Central Continent, the Milis Continent, and the Demon Continent would often use things like, "If you don't behave, the terrible Spelud tribe will come and eat you," to scare some children.
Over time, this led to everyone fearing this race.
The little god explained.
"Rumors are truly harmful!"
Broly, feeling a pang of emotion, said to the green-haired man in front of him, "I'm not from this world. I only just heard about the Spelud today, so I'm not afraid of you."
After a pause, Broly asked again, "I've come to challenge you to a match. Would you be interested in fighting me?"
"I don't fight with children."
Rachel Rudd shook his head and refused.
"I'm not a little kid. Don't let my small appearance fool you, I'm actually 15 years old."
Broly lied about his age; according to Crystal Palace's algorithm based on the planet Vampa, he is still 13 years old.
Even if the actual length of time he spent was longer than that.
"15 years old, isn't he still a child?"
"Oh, I forgot to remind you, Broly, the age of adulthood here on the Demon Continent isn't fifteen. There are many long-lived races here, and there are plenty of people who can live for hundreds of years."
The little god spoke then, and Broly looked at him silently.
He looked at Broly, seemingly enjoying the boy's sullen expression.
"Alright, so what will it take for you to agree to a fight with me?"
"No competition, no fighting, children should be protected."
Rajirud sat down again and put the dry branch of the tree spirit at his feet into the fire, making it burn even brighter.
The Demon Continent is hot during the day and cold at night, with extreme temperature differences, but he was intentionally increasing the temperature brought by the campfire.
"Broly, you can make your move. Use the Dragon King Sword to strike. If his life is threatened, he will naturally fight you."
The little god suggested.
I don't force others to compete with me.
During his seventh playthrough, Broly frequently challenges others to battles, but he doesn't force them if they refuse.
"Alright then, let's use the trash talk of the Northern God Stream to provoke them. You can say that the Spelud race is a crazy race, and mock the Spelud race for being brutal, saying that when they go crazy they will even kill or eat their own family members."
"I guarantee that once you say that, this Spelud warrior captain in front of you will be so angry that he'll unleash his true power and fight you!"
The little god gave a new suggestion, and He particularly liked to rub salt into the wounds of the unfortunate.
"I also dislike Kitakami Ryu's trash talk."
Broly refused again, believing that many members of the Northern God School were bluffing, especially the Strange Faction, who had a whole host of underhanded tricks up their sleeves.
He admitted that methods like throwing sand into someone's eyes, setting off a firecracker, or poisoning someone were somewhat effective, but fighting this kind of guy was mostly fruitless.
"If you can beat me, how about I give you this sword? It's the famous Wanglong Sword, which can fetch more than 10 gold coins."
Broly chose to increase his bargaining chips in the fight against himself.
"Not interested."
Rachel Rudd glanced at it but remained unmoved.
"All right."
After failing to persuade Ridge Rudd to fight him, Broly prepared to leave.
But after he got up and left, he found that the Spelud was silently hanging behind him.
Just as Broly thought that this person had changed his mind and wanted to fight him, a spear was thrown from behind and pierced the body of a large burrowing worm that suddenly emerged from the ground and tried to attack him.
This thing is the adult form of a burrowing worm, with an extremely earthy smell. Apart from some demons taming it to cultivate wasteland, it has no value for food.
"What do you mean by that?"
Broly looked at the green-haired man who came over and drew his gun and asked.
"I'll protect you. Go back to a safe place."
Rachel Rudd answered seriously.
"Thanks, but I probably don't need your protection. If you don't want to fight me, please don't interfere with my sword practice."
Broly continued forward. There were quite a few underground monsters like the Digging Worm in this area. Practicing the Water God Style swordsmanship, which involved anticipating the enemy's moves, here was a pretty good thing, even while keeping his composure.
"Bang!"
As he spoke, Broly felt the ground beneath his feet tremble again. Just as he was preparing to predict the location of the underground monster's emergence and intend to kill it instantly with the King Dragon Sword, a long spear pierced the ground more than ten meters behind him before he could react.
Another burrowing worm was killed. Rigel walked over and retrieved his spear before turning to Broly and saying, "This place is too dangerous. Let's leave as soon as possible."
"This person's perception seems to be stronger than mine."
Broly asked the gods and men.
"The ruby on the forehead of the Spelud race grants them an extremely keen sense of their surroundings. They can also use the powerful perception granted by the ruby to see through their opponent's moves and find their weaknesses. They are a race with exceptional combat talent on the Demon Continent."
The little god explained.
"I see."
Broly nodded and closed his eyes. With his breath suppressed, his sense of energy was rather vague.
But this is just a vague feeling; if you really pay attention, you can still detect some very subtle changes.
"Clang~"
Before the third underground monster could emerge and attack after they had traveled some distance, Broly swung his sword first.
Rachel Luther paused in his motion to throw the spear, looking with some surprise at the slightly raised bulge.
"How about that? My perception speed is faster than yours, isn't it?"
"You're faster than me, you're amazing."
Rachel Luther nodded. He was a discerning warrior who could sense the level of Broly's sword strike.
"So, you don't need to follow me anymore."
Broly waved at him.
"No, you're a child, I have to protect you and get you to a safe place."
However, Rachel Rudd still shook his head.
"In that case, let's have a contest to see who can take down more attacking monsters first."
Broly suggested that although it wasn't a contest of combat skills, a contest of perception would also be acceptable.
Rachel Luther didn't say anything, he just threw the spear.
"Little one, don't take any risks. I'll protect you."
He walked over and pulled out the bone spear.
"The Spelud race has an exaggerated sense of perception, especially the warrior leader Rijrud. You are challenging the strength of another race."
The little god said.
"However, compared to your ability to extend your perception throughout the entire world, the Spelud's ability is nothing special."
"He has the same capacity for qi, but his perception is stronger than mine; he's quite capable."
Broly threw the King Dragon Sword as a projectile, and before he could react, he knocked Rijrud's spear aside. Meanwhile, a subterranean monster that had just peeked out was instantly killed by the King Dragon Sword, which pierced its skull.
"return."
Broly beckoned with his finger, and the Dragon King Sword, as if it had a mind of its own, flew back from the monster's head.
This is the remote control of the King Dragon Sword by Qi, but to achieve this when Qi is low, some Qi manipulation skills are still required.
The Kitakami-ryu style is not entirely a rogue's art; it also includes sword-throwing techniques that resemble acrobatics, and its use of ki is quite ingenious.
When combined with a special sword like the Dragon King Sword, which can manipulate gravity for flight, it can achieve some bizarre sword moves. Of course, in Broly's hands, these bizarre sword moves become...
"Damn it, come back!"
The ability to throw the Wanglong Sword out and then let it fly back on its own.
What? You're saying this ability is useless?
Yeah, it's really not very useful.
It just eliminates the need to run over and retrieve the sword after throwing it.
While Rachel Rudd was throwing his gun, Broly was throwing his sword.
As Rachel Rudd sprinted to retrieve the spear that had been thrown far away, Broly's Dragon Sword flew back with a whoosh.
After walking a distance, Broly felt that throwing the sword was too troublesome, so he simply used the spirit-controlled sword, and the King Dragon Sword evolved into the Cruiser Sword.
As soon as Broly senses the presence of a monster, the sword will rush to kill it. Rijrud tried to throw his gun several times, but he couldn't snatch the King Dragon Sword.
"Your perception is slightly better, but my reaction speed is faster. How about we call it a tie?"
After leaving the danger zone, Broly asked the green-haired man next to him for his opinion.
"Actually, it's fine if you win."
Rachel Rudd didn't care about that.
"Let's have another competition another time, if there's a chance."
Broly waved goodbye to Rigel. Although he hadn't been able to have a proper fight with Rigel this time, he had made some progress in both the Water God Style and the Northern God Style, so it wasn't a complete loss. This still made the Saiyan quite satisfied.
"it is good."
Rachel Rudd agreed and watched Broly ascend into the sky and fly away.
"He's a strange kid, but in any case, he should be safe."
. . . .
Broly traveled to the Sky Continent again, and this time he flew much faster than he had crawled before.
The Aurora Plateau, the area cracked by Broly and Alsterd last time, has been reset.
Some of the bird-like monsters that nested on the low-grass plateau looked up warily at the boy as he flew up.
