Chapter 869 Trap
Administrator Wellton was flabbergasted of the sudden attack. He actually didn't sense it and had almost been killed on the spot! If not for the Secret Amos Vines, he would have been dead by now.
"That speed..." The admin was well aware. It was something that not even the Emperors of this train could do. Now, his guard was at the top and looking at Jin Rou with more cautiousness.
"I say, you're really lucky." Jin Rou said, "That kind of speed attack should be impossible to read but your vines did. That's pretty impressive."
"You have hidden well your power, I see." Administrator Wellton said, "Now, I can see why it's not surprising that you defeated the Calamity Uxion."
He was talking about the Calamity Scheme which Jin Rou battled for the Imperial Throne.
After a pause, he continued, "What is your purpose in coming in the Dark Train with such power? Surely, you don't seek to get stronger here, no?"
p
"Getting into the Dark Train is easier said than done." Administrator Wellton said, "Even if you are willing, you need to gather many resources in order to know where this will go through and whatnot. Judging by your attitude, it seems you hopped in free pass."
"Luck is on my side, that's why." Jin Rou chuckled, "Now that I'm done playing around, I will get out of this Dark Train and go to that place."
Administrator Wellton asked, "You want to go that place?"
"You seem to be buying time for something. But I guess, I can't let you do it, can I?" Jin Rou smirked and started his offense.
The Secret Amos Vines got in his way. However, he slashed through despite not being able to cut them. The moves were smoother and sharper than what he showed a while ago.
"He's getting serious..." The admin could feel the air around Jin Rou changed. He dashed off towards Jin Rou, too, to meet him.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!" The vines and the saber were in rhythm as they attacked Jin Rou side by side. The latter was, however, keeping up with them as if this was just a trivial matter.
"Activate!" Jin Rou created a slash with a terrifying power and momentum going to the admin.
"Boom!" The vines were removed and the saber got damaged from receiving the slash.
Administrator Wellton became alert as he saw this. He activated his treasure, One Way Eye, to its extremes.
The One Way Eye could read the opponent's movements for a minute. And soon, thousand calculations of the opponent's movements could be seen.
"This..." The admin was shocked. Normally, an opponent would only have tens to hundreds of calculations based on his eye. Yet, this opponent reached a thousand and it was still counting! How could he formulate a counter if that was the case?
Soon, a hand was about to reach the admin once again. Jin Rou had found an opportunity to attack and so he did.
"You have fallen into my trap." Administrator Wellton smiled and said.
"Boom!" A loud and deafening explosion was created. The smoke turned up into the sky as it made the clouds darker.
"!!!" Pisces revealed a pale expression. Jin Rou couldn't die, or else he would be next.
"Calm down. That man couldn't possibly be dead by that kind of measly explosion." Sylvianna said, "See who got fallen into the trap."
Pisces looked at the thick fog of smoke using his eyes and was dumbfounded by what he saw.
Jin Rou's clothes were tattered and there were some visible wounds on his body. His right arm, which was grabbing the admin by the neck, was also bloody.
"What... He caught that explosion intentionally?" Pisces thought that Jin Rou was insane. No matter what, that explosion was still dangerous!
"That is his best shot to catch the cautious Administrator." Sylvianna understood Jin Rou's intention, "The Secret Amos Vines are protecting the admin and no matter what, it will be difficult for Young Noble to near him at a point blank range. The vines are too tricky to handle, thus he has no choice but to see for an opportunity to near. And what do you think the best way to actually near an opponent with his guard raised to the maximum?"
"To show the opponent that you are being led to a trap." Pisces could finally understand the intention. But the deed was too risky to handle.
"Indeed. For you and perhaps the other Zodiacs, this method is not conceivable. The risks are too much and you cannot probably handle the results. Weighing the pros and cons, the cons are tipping on itself." Sylvianna explained, "But for the Young Noble who has a great trust in himself, this is possible to fulfill. And as you see, he only received minor wounds though he looked damaged severely."
Meanwhile in the battlefield, the admin was struggling from Jin Rou's grip. The vines were attacking the latter with intense power but Jin Rou had already separated their time and space, so it was actually useless.
"You're nuts..." Administrator Wellton had never expected that he would end up fighting a lunatic. Not just that, his life was in the other party's hands. He was at mercy of the opponent, "What will you get from slaying me?"
"Hmm, good question." Jin Rou smirked and said, "If I get that thing in your possession, I will be able to command the Pilot to change direction."
Hearing this, the admin struggled more as he looked at Jin Rou with terror, "You want to use my heart for that? The Eye of Possibility will not allow you! Not even the Train Pilot could avoid it!"
Changing the directions of the Dark Train was impossible. Even the Train Pilot couldn't do it unless he wasn't afraid of the Eye of Possibility.
