Chapter 55

Almost at the same time that Lilliath was attacked, Neptune warned Gu Ding in his ear, "Lilliath has met her match!"

"What?!" Gu Ding almost screamed. "Didn't your surveillance show that there was no one else?"

"It's not anyone else …" Neptune was about to explain but was interrupted by a voice behind Gu Ding.

"Do you still want to run? Your partner sneaked into the shipyard and was discovered. I don't think you need to waste time luring me further away. "Cooper's voice came from not far behind Gu Ding. He was less than ten meters away from Gu Ding.

"You already knew?" Gu Ding felt that his plan had failed. He had been completely fooled by his opponent.

"I was just guessing. I didn't know how many people there were in the beginning." Cooper shook his head. "However, I do know one thing. You came to the shipyard for one thing. That is to find a usable spaceship and leave this planet. I can't think of any other purpose. "

"There are usually only two ways to get that spaceship. The first is to kill me and you can take the spaceship away at will. Of course, this method is limited to people who are stronger than me. As for the second method, it is to sneak into the spaceship and take it away while I'm not around. Since I won't leave the spaceship on my own, this kind of plan usually requires at least two people to execute. One is responsible for luring me away, and the other can take the spaceship away. Obviously, you chose the second method. "

"In order to avoid the second scenario, I had two options. The first was to stay by the spaceship and ignore your provocations. That way, you could only enter the shipyard and fight me head-on. However, I can't ignore someone else's provocations. Therefore, I chose the second option. I used an ability that I'm not very willing to use … "At this point, Cooper kept Gu Ding in suspense." My special ability is called Shadow Doppelganger. "

"People who have the Shadow Doppelganger ability can create a doppelganger to hide in the shadows. This doppelganger has half of the original's strength. As a side effect, the original's strength will be reduced by half, "Neptune added in Gu Ding's ear.

"Do you know why I didn't use my full strength at the gate of the shipyard for so long? Because I wanted to know where your strength is. If you were really strong, I would have recalled my doppelganger and killed you first. But the facts show that I don't even need to recall my doppelganger to kill you. This is also why I chased after you without any worries. " Cooper was very happy to show off his intelligence. After scheming against the other party, he narrated the whole process. It was simply delightful.

"Can I understand it that way? When you're at the entrance of the shipyard, you can recall your shadow doppelganger and restore your strength to its peak. But now that you're so far away, you can't call back your shadow clone. Your strength will also be maintained at half of your peak state? " Gu Ding speculated from Neptune's words. He had asked the question not because he wanted Neptune to answer, but because he wanted an answer from Neptune.

"Anyway, you and your little girlfriend will be killed by me later, so there's no harm in telling you. Your guess is correct. My Shadow Clone had to come into contact with my shadow before it could be recalled. Just now, the shadow clone had been hiding behind the door of the shipyard. It could instantly enter my shadow and merge with me. But now, I'm too far away, so I can't take it back. So what? With your strength, I can't even win against you now, "Cooper said with a very proud smile.

"He's not lying." Neptune's voice came again.

"I have one more question. If you're killed, will your doppelganger disappear?" Gu Ding could roughly guess the answer to this question, but he still wanted to get confirmation from Neptune.

"Of course, except for some curse-type abilities. Under normal circumstances, when an ability user dies, the ability's effect will immediately dissipate. You don't even know this kind of common sense question? "Cooper felt that Gu Ding's question was a little naive, but he still gave an answer. Obviously, to him, showing off that his IQ was higher than the other party's was also a kind of victory to a certain extent.

"All doppelganger abilities will disappear after the original body dies," Neptune also gave a definite answer.

"In that case, I'm going to tell you now that I might have to disappoint you." After receiving Neptune's reply, Gu Ding suddenly stopped running. He turned around and stood in place, staring coldly at Cooper. "You've underestimated my strength!"

"Not bad. Do you really think you can scare me?" Cooper was stunned when he heard Gu Ding's words, but he immediately laughed.

The activation of Ultimate Arts Level 5 only required the use of Silent Step. There was no physical impact, so it was not a serious burden on Gu Ding's body.

When he thought about Liliath encountering a Rank 6 Gene Body opponent, Gu Ding knew that he could not delay any longer. He had to go all out and kill the guy in front of him. Otherwise, there was a high chance that Liliath would be killed.

Ultimate Arts Level 5 was fully activated, and Gu Ding's strength was tripled. At the same time, Gu Ding also activated Rage Attack, and his strength was tripled again. Coupled with the double boost from the Combat Armor, Gu Ding's current combat effectiveness was comparable to a martial arts practitioner with a Cell Index of 1800 points. This state could only last for thirty minutes at most.

Gu Ding, who had activated Rage Attack, had red eyes. Seeing Gu Ding's state, Cooper suddenly felt a little uneasy. He vaguely felt that Gu Ding's aura seemed to be stronger than his.

A Rank 6 Gene Body's Cell Index was between 1000 points and 3000 points. Cooper had reached the highest of 3000 points, but now that his combat effectiveness had been halved, it was only equivalent to 1500 points, which was not as good as Gu Ding's.

Gu Ding bent his knees slightly, and with a sudden force, he pounced forward. He was so fast that Cooper's eyes could not keep up with him.

By the time Cooper saw Gu Ding, Gu Ding had already closed in on him. Gu Ding had activated Ultimate Arts Level 5 to the extreme. His body was upside down, and he twisted his body around. His hands were on the ground, and his feet slammed into Cooper's chin. Cooper felt a huge force hit his chin, which almost dislocated it. At the same time, his body was thrown into the air. However, this was not the end. Gu Ding did a backflip and squatted down. With a sudden force from his legs, he appeared next to the unstable Cooper. He clenched his fists into the shape of hammers and slammed them into Cooper's chest. Cooper's body instantly fell to the ground.

"Crack …" Cooper knew that at least two of his ribs had been broken by this blow. The faint pain in his chest finally made him realize how powerful Gu Ding was.

"This guy … I can't believe he hid his strength so well …" Cooper's back was slammed hard into the ground. Fortunately, the spine was one of the hardest parts of the human body, so it did not suffer much damage.

Gu Ding's attack did not stop. His Steel Fist did not have any gaps in between as he punched Cooper again and again. Every punch was full of power, and he did not hold back.

Cooper could only use his arms to resist. If his arms had not taken most of the impact, his heart would have been crushed by Gu Ding.

However, he soon noticed that the bones in his arms had begun to crack. He was afraid that he would not be able to hold on for long.

Gu Ding had the upper hand on this side of the battlefield, but Lilliath, who was on the other side of the battlefield, was caught in an unprecedented struggle …
