Chapter 268 I Want to Know Your Name
After seeing Germain coming, Netero knew that the task he gave to Germain had been completed.
But he didn't expect that Germain would actually complete the task beyond the quota and kill two of the "Three Guards".
Great.
He couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Two of the "Three Guards" died at the hands of Germain, and could not determine the outcome of the current battle.
But Netero was still excited and happy.
For the Chimera Ant Expedition Team, he actually had a psychological plan for not being able to defeat the "Three Guards".
The task Netero gave them was just to delay the "Three Guards".
Now, two of the "Three Guards" have been solved and one has been restrained, so they will have more time and space for the decisive battle with Meruem.
Meruem did not show any anger or resentment. He just accepted this possibility after thinking for a while.
"Maybe there is such a possibility. I never thought that the Chimera Ants were invincible... No matter how powerful they are, they may still be defeated by you."
"So, I can assume that you have rejected my persuasion to surrender again, right?"
German's silence and Netero's laughter have expressed their attitude.
Meruem's eyes turned cold.
He took a step forward, and the energy around him was dispatched in an instant, which was simply natural.
Bang——
He stepped up and shot out, and his figure disappeared in the air.
The next moment, when he appeared again, he was not in front of German, but in front of Netero.
Even after hearing that Neferpitou and Yupi died at the hands of German, Meruem still kept thinking calmly.
The old man mentioned "The Poor Rose" specifically to make me always be cautious and restrained.
The young man mentioned the death of Neferpitou and Yupi to attract firepower.
So, in this case, attacking the old man is the best solution.
I attacked the old man, and the old man had to ensure that he would not die unless it was absolutely necessary, so as to prevent the "Rose of the Poor" from detonating and affecting the young man.
At the same time, in order to protect the old man, the young man also needed to share some attention with the old man.
If I really attacked the young man, I would be the one who was restrained.
What I had to do was very simple, to remove all the means of resistance from the old man as much as possible, and to ensure that he would not die, and then I could calmly fight the young man.
By ensuring this order of priority, the rhythm of the battle was still under my control.
Meruem had sorted out his thoughts.
Netero saw Meruem appear a few meters in front of him in the blink of an eye, and he understood it instantly.
His face sank.
Haha, I didn't expect that one day I would become a burden.
Start, pray, and palm out——
Boom boom boom——
The palm wind of "Hundred Styles of Guanyin 99" came in my face, and the golden light of the Thousand-Handed Guanyin was dazzling like a phantom, all poured into Meruem.
However, Meruem had already figured out all the moves of "Hyakushiki Kannon" in the previous fight.
He could even tell how Netero was going to strike just from Netero's breathing rhythm.
Meruem dodged most of the attacks almost perfectly and blasted away the last few moves.
In an instant, he broke through all the attacks and came in front of Netero.
First, he took off the old man's hands and feet.
Although it was a pity that without Neferpitou, he couldn't help him later.
But with Owl Yapofu, he should be able to complete his limbs by transforming him into a Chimera Ant.
Just as Meruem was about to do this, he suddenly felt a chill approaching his back.
Germain appeared behind him at an incredible speed.
Meruem narrowed his eyes.
The next moment, his tail instinctively swung back violently, and there was a clang, and it collided with a certain metal weapon.
Meruem turned his head and first saw the meat saw that was colliding with his tail and sending sparks flying, and then saw several other strange weapons attacking him.
He turned in the air, deflected the shotgun with his left hand, and chopped off the spiral cane and the sword Qianying with his right hand.
Huff——
However, he was still engulfed by the raging flames!
Meruem, however, opened and closed his hands and feet in the entanglement of the fire snake, and used his mind to force the flames away.
Then, he pressed forward, his fists like the wind, and blasted at Germain with a loud bang.
Germain, whose dark crown had already switched to a silver-white halo, wore a black-bottomed white bone hard armor, and fought Meruem's fists without giving in!
Bang bang bang——
Mind bursting and overflowing!
The ground continued to sink downwards due to the fluctuations, revealing the appearance of pits that were constantly hit by meteorites.
Meruem couldn't help but open his eyes wide in the rapid battle.
He could actually catch my punches and kicks at close range?
He did what the old man couldn't do.
Meruem has a strong physique that Netero doesn't have, that is, the innate body of the Chimera Ant King.
This allows him to make countless mistakes. Netero will lose a leg if he makes a mistake once, and a hand if he makes another mistake.
Now, a human has appeared who can fight him with punches and kicks like this!
Is it because of the armor on his body?
Meruem vaguely guessed the key.
Originally, he was only half-believing and half-doubting about the death of Neferpitou and Yupi, but now he is 80% convinced.
In "Three Guardians", Meruem happened to attack Neferpitou and Yupi once, so he knew very well what kind of attack their physical strength could withstand.
This man can indeed kill them. He is stronger than that old man, and much stronger.
However, I am stronger than him.
Meruem learned a lot from playing military chess with Xiaomai.
One of them is to predict the opponent's chess path and find the flaws from it.
Before, Netero fell in this aspect in addition to his physical fitness being inferior to Meruem.
Such prediction requires first understanding all of Netero's attack patterns and knowing them all by heart.
After that, Meruem can judge how Netero likes to attack and how he doesn't like to attack based on Netero's breathing.
Then, Meruem can predict his next attack and block it in advance, which is a fighting idea similar to Jeet Kune Do.
Therefore, Meruem wanted to fight back against Germain in the same way.
Then, he was surprised to find that he had missed three points in the fierce fight.
First, he did not have enough time to understand Germain's fighting style.
This can be solved, it is not a big problem.
Second, he understood all of Netero's tricks, based on the fact that Netero could only barely keep up with his speed, and Netero's attack could not penetrate his shell and cause substantial damage.
However, Germain not only kept up with his speed with ease, but also from the punch-to-punch bombardment, he could sense that Germain's attack could penetrate his defense.
In other words, Germain's attack was threatening to him.
Third, he was very good at sensing the opponent's breathing and judging the opponent's thoughts based on the breathing.
To deal with such means, his opponent must either be able to hold his breath for a long time like Mo Laowu, or be able to keep his breathing stable under high-intensity games like Xiaomai.
That is, have a big heart.
He once tried to disrupt Xiaomai's breathing by intimidation.
As a result, Xiaomai's obsession with military chess was far beyond imagination, and she still maintained her mental concentration on the game.
Only in military chess, she was unwilling to lose to anyone.
Germain was the latter like Xiaomai.
While fighting with Germain, Meruem sensed the rhythm of Germain's breathing, trying to find a flaw in it, but he never found one.
Even the old man, Meruem found a flaw in it, why couldn't this young man find a flaw?
Is he the same kind of person as Xiaomai?
In addition, Meruem's strategy of attacking Netero and forcing Germain to return to help was basically declared bankrupt.
Because the premise of the success of this strategy is that Meruem has the calmness to deal with the attacks of Germain and Netero at the same time.
This can be fake and real, real and fake.
However, the combat power shown by Germain was beyond Meruem's expectations.
Like Xiaomai, Germain was not an opponent that Meruem could easily defeat even if he was distracted to do other things.
Looking at the dazzling life-and-death struggle in front of him, Netero clasped his hands together and did not interfere.
In fact, he could not interfere.
At this time, it was hard to say who would be hit by the "Hundred-style Guanyin" palm.
Now, he felt more and more joyful that the longer he lived, the more he saw.
Now, in the entire six continents, the only human who could really fight Meruem was probably Germain.
Bang——
The mind and energy were in direct contact, and the strong vibration separated Germain and Meruem in an instant.
They stood at a distance and adjusted their breathing.
Boom——
Netero took the opportunity to blast Meruem with a palm, but Meruem dodged it and flew to a farther place.
He didn't think it would work, he just wanted to interfere with Meruem's rhythm.
After Meruem stood firm again, he temporarily stopped the attack.
After thinking for a while, he pointed at Germain.
"Tell me your name."
Mai and this man are the only opponents who can keep him evenly matched.
He wants to know the name of the man in front of him, just like he wants to know Mai's name, and then wants to know his own name.
Calling the real name is a way of recognizing this man as an equal opponent.
"German." German answered calmly.
Meruem paused and pointed at Netero again.
"What's your name?"
Netero snorted coldly, slowly closed his palm, and did not answer.
He already understood why Meruem wanted to know German's name, and his name was just by the way.
German answered for Netero: "His name is Netero."
Meruem nodded.
"Listen, Germain. Before this, I thought Netero was the strongest among humans. Now, after fighting you, I found that it is not the case."
"I have to thank you for letting me know in advance that there may be stronger people among humans. I will be more cautious after this."
"But, you can only do so much. Whether it is Germain or Netero, I have memorized all your attack methods."
"Next, I will decide the winner with Germain within five seconds, and then remove Netero's hands and feet within two seconds, so that you can't activate the "Poor Rose". "
"This is my declaration for the future. I will not hold back on you, and I might even accidentally kill Germain."
"If that's the case, this is where you end up."
