Cannot win...
At the end of his thoughts, in a blank space with nothing but chaos, the consciousness that still calls itself "Motan" made the above judgment.
This is not a brilliant presumption. After all, even if the professional player named Xinglong lost an arm, and this body that has offset all the side effects including the loss of half-dragon characteristics is recovering at a high speed, not only can he fight with a completely liberated [Reverse Scale] posture for quite a while, but both the bones and muscles can recover most of them in a few breaths, and it is impossible to make up for the gap between the two.
This is normal, it is really normal.
In the final analysis, being able to reach this level with only about a quarter of the game time of ordinary players, and even causing this person who stands at the top of the professional circle to lose his left arm, can be said to be a "feat" for Motan, and any dissatisfaction can be directly equated with the word "arrogance".
In this competition, the opponent had no reason to lose, and I had no reason to win. Everything was so logical and natural.
Very good result, I got promoted, Xinglong barely played to my heart's content, and the Red Constellation advanced without giving any extra information. For me, Lujiang and Ji Xiaoge, this battle of accusations could also be brought to a perfect end.
Nothing bad happened, and there was no surprise that I didn't want to see.
Very good result.
Perfect result.
Mo Tan undoubtedly thought so, so he didn't understand why Xinglong's eyes were surging with undisguised disappointment, and why the piercing anger in his heart was not dissipated at all.
He didn't understand.
He really didn't understand.
He didn't want to understand at all.
But obviously, he actually understood.
Because he wanted to win.
Because he was not convinced.
Because someone was watching.
Because he didn't want to leave.
Because the nameless anger was getting more and more intense.
Of course, Mo Tan understood, because the facts were already in front of him. Although he was too tired to even raise his hand, he still clenched [Xiao] again, moved his body with a terrifying recovery speed, slowly stood up from the human-shaped gully under him, and looked up at the arrogant figure.
I have to admit that Xinglong is too strong.
If he hadn't been unlucky and met Cordova early, he might have gone further, and it would not be impossible to win the championship.
Admittedly, Mo Tan has equated someone who claims to be a scenery party with the third-ranked [Anonymous] in the personal combat power ranking, but perhaps because he had fought with the other party once, he thought that if Ji Xiaodao and Xinglong were to face off, the former, who seemed to have difficulty using his full strength for some reason, might not be able to win easily.
Again, Xinglong is too strong.
When countless factors including but not limited to talent, hard work, self-discipline, and love are concentrated on the same person, the upper limit of what he can burst out can no longer be quantified. The main theme is to be stronger when facing a strong opponent and to defeat a strong opponent.
Whether it was when he was fighting with a certain [Anonymous], or when he was "sparring" with Xinglong now, in a corner deep in Mo Tan's heart, there was always a sharp and hot anger hidden under the peace.
That was the most powerless, idealistic, and humble indignation against fate, and also the resentment and resistance to all compromises.
It's just that all of this has been suppressed in a quiet, deep, and dusty corner deep in his heart for a long time.
In the end, after "stripping" almost everything from himself, the last persistence of Mo Tan under the current personality was the illusory and worthless protective will, and...
The desire for power.
It is true that in the world of innocence, ‘Mo’ is a man who is deeply respected and loved by everyone. He is polite, modest, kind, and always considerate of others. However, this does not mean that he should be labeled as ‘pedantic’ and ‘formulaic’. In fact, unlike those people whose heads are full of short-sighted fantasies, Mo Tan has always been practicing his justice in a down-to-earth manner, rather than hysterically forcing or begging others to recognize his justice.
And the basis for practicing justice is the word ‘strength’.
And what he can barely take care of in the ‘crack’, and at the same time the only thing he can show off, is also the word ‘strength’.
But he is not strong enough...
How can this not make people angry? !
And at this moment, what is dominating ‘Mo’ is the wound that he has deliberately ignored and pretended not to see for more than 20 years.
There is hatred and hostility towards all things that are subjectively determined to be unjust, including the other side of oneself, and the [rage] that distorts and interprets the love for justice without authorization, and cannot tolerate any unnecessary interpretation.
There is the [laziness] that morbidly bears everything within its sight, but is unwilling to spend even a second on itself, and fails to cherish itself wholeheartedly.
There is [lust] that ignores one's own voice and blindly pursues a certain obsession, which eventually blinds one's vision.
There is the [greed] that pursues perfection that does not exist, and wants to show this extreme to the world by oneself, and then seeks some kind of empty superiority.
There is the [gluttony] that indulges in one's own justice, but forgets that one also needs fair care, and never knows how to be satisfied.
There is the [arrogance] that insists on one's own correctness and executes it regardless of everything, even if one is tortured.
And the [jealousy] of those who are not dominated by the above wounds and cracks.
These are the negative emotions that are locked deep in the heart by the current personality of Mo Tan, or "Mo".
There is a saying that honest people are the most terrible when they get angry. If we look at the root of it from a rational level, the so-called "terrible" is just that the so-called "honest people" are not good at venting their negative emotions, but they can't digest them by their own efforts, which eventually leads to those negative emotions breaking through the threshold after accumulating to a certain extent, and then causing unspeakable consequences.
Originally, it was just a bad temper every now and then, but if the depression of three or five days becomes a week, a month, or even a year, those originally insignificant little tempers, little willfulness, and little quarrels may evolve into extreme consequences including but not limited to murder.
What about Mo Tan?
In a way, he never endured even a second.
In a way, he was just living an ordinary and serious life.
In a way, he had suppressed and restrained himself for more than 20 years.
Once upon a time, Mo Tan thought of the answer the first time he noticed this problem, that is, although one side of himself was a little suppressed, he would be forced to balance by the wantonness of the other side, and finally achieve mental stability.
However, at this moment, he realized that the crushed camel named "Mo Tan" had never existed since he was sensible, and "I" had never balanced "myself", so the nature of the matter changed.
The emotions that had been deeply suppressed in the depths of his heart for more than 20 years boiled up, and with the dam called rationality bursting, they directly swept the mind called subconsciousness from the inside out and broke Mo Tan, completing the first release.
And Xinglong was the target of this subconsciousness to vent this endless negative emotion.
Unfortunately, the target was really strong. As a result, it not only completed the task of venting, but also annoyed the subconscious mind that was already mixed with "laziness".
It is no exaggeration to say that if Mo Tan had a different opponent at this moment, even if it was Mu Xuejian, when the former took the initiative to seal the weapon "Ruthless Sword", it would be difficult for him to withstand Mo Tan who kept reproducing any moves he saw without scruples, like a storm, without stopping for a moment. After all, when the full release of [The Lawgiver's Will] and [Reverse Scale] continued, his recovery ability was so strong that even a broken bone could be cured by breathing.
But Xinglong was not Mu Xuejian. Although he lost his left arm and the Azure Dragon Will of the Cang Emperor, he still had to suppress Mo Tan. Not only that, after getting used to the latter's fighting rhythm that ordinary people could not see any rhythm at all, he even felt a touch of disappointment, because in his cognition, "Mo" was not this kind of person who had no creativity and could not give him any pressure when he was insufficient in strength.
Therefore, even if the opponent in front of him stood up again, Xinglong was a little fed up.
Not only him, but even Mo's subconscious mind that was controlling his body was gradually dominated by laziness and fatigue, and seemed a little tired.
After that, Xinglong kept suppressing and finally dragged until the duration of Mo Tan's [Reverse Scale] ended.
Given that [The Lawgiver's Will] offset the side effects of the full release of [Reverse Scale], Mo Tan did not lose the characteristics of a half-dragon man, but only lost the power brought by [Reverse Scale] and returned to normal.
After realizing that the opponent's state had declined significantly, Xinglong did not delay any more, and without hesitation used a [Flame Fist] to kill Mo Tan and eliminated him.
According to the agreement, Ji Xiaoge and Lu Jiang also obediently withdrew from the game. At this point, [Zoo] was eliminated, [Red Constellation] advanced to the quarterfinals, and the game ended successfully.
As for the negative emotions that were difficult to express, they were naturally suppressed by Mo Tan back into the depths of his subconscious after the game, and they never saw the light of day again after the [Questioning Debate] ended and the system took back the special treatment.
Everyone is happy.
Everyone is happy~
...
If nothing unexpected happens, the above should be the direction after this game.
Although he does not have the ability to predict the future, Mo Tan can still easily make this level of prediction. After all, with his intelligence, he guessed at the moment of his "accident" that this might be related to "Blood Release", "Shura Halberd" and "the back door opened by the system".
The conscious mind wandering in the chaos tried to give up thinking.
Then he failed.
The reason is very simple. Whether it is the so-called conscious mind or the subconscious mind, it is actually the same thing in the final analysis.
Whether it is the palm of the hand or the back of the hand, it is actually "hand".
What the subconscious mind controls the body and the conscious mind is in the depths of the spirit is just a high-end self-deception.
This kind of self-deception may deceive people like Hei Fan, Dora, Luna, and Yi Dong, but it cannot deceive ‘Mo’ in the world of innocence.
After all, he has been in a state where the cost of lying is too high for a long time.
“Alas.”
So, after inevitably realizing this, Mo finally opened his eyes and sighed tiredly.
Then——
In those vertical pupils full of fatigue and anger, a gleam of spirit began to appear.
It is worth mentioning that no matter whether it is fatigue, anger, or any other negative emotions, they did not fade from Mo Tan's eyes along with that brilliance, but together with it, they constituted a part of those eyes.
"Sorry."
Mo Tan, who had re-'unified' himself, but was different from his usual gentle and peaceful state, looked up at Xinglong and said lightly: "I was distracted just now."
"Huh?"
Xinglong, who originally showed impatience, was stunned at first, and then his eyes widened in surprise: "Are you okay?"
"I can't say I'm okay."
Mo Tan casually transformed [Xiao] into the form of a ruthless sword, and said calmly: "I can still maintain this state for a short time, I hope I won't let you down again."
Xinglong grinned, and the red phantom flame attached to his right fist surged in the wind: "I have a prediction Feeling, now you can only bring me surprises. "
"Maybe..."
Mo Tan gently placed his left index finger on the edge of the ruthless sword, and continued to calm his emotions with the help of the cold touch, while muttering: "In short, you'd better go all out."
The next moment, without any warning, Xinglong's figure suddenly tilted to the left, and the pair of fire wings behind him were cut off by nearly a quarter by an invisible sword light. Not only that, at the moment he tried to avoid it, several silhouettes holding swords and wings on their backs appeared out of thin air around him, and crossed with him at a dazzling speed.
The wings behind him instantly turned into a ball of flying flames and dissipated. Xinglong fell to the ground again and groaned. There were several criss-crossing sword marks on his body. Less than two meters in front of him, Mo Tan still maintained the posture of gently stroking the edge of the blade, and never moved a step from beginning to end.
Then——
Bang! Bang!
As two bursts of flames flashed by, the red wings of fire spread out behind Xinglong again, and the numerous sword marks on his body quickly healed under the burning of the flames, and healed in the blink of an eye, and his health was restored to 100% at the same time.
"What was that just now?"
Xinglong cast a probing look at Mo Tan and asked curiously.
"It feels like something that may cause you trouble."
Mo Tan sighed, leaned down weakly, his upper body parallel to the ground, his left and right hands were placed on the hilt and handle of [Xiao·Ruthless Sword] respectively, and his tone was so calm that it was distorted: "Don't worry, there are still many surprises."
