Chapter 801 -29 Jason: A Sense of Familiarity!_2
"However, even without any suspicion, Master only began teaching me the secret technique after he and I had been hunted for three days, and I had suffered serious injuries.”
"I can’t forget the look on his face when I mastered the secret technique and killed Master completely.”
"I also can’t forget the shock on the faces of my senior brothers who thought they knew everything and believed I couldn’t master the secret technique in such a short time when they died.”
The ‘Heartseeker’ paused here.
His words were not finished.
"I killed Junior Sister.”
"I killed Master, too.”
"And I killed my senior brothers.”
"Then, I obtained this secret technique, but how could this be enough?”
"I wasn’t strong enough!”
"So, I continued to search for secret techniques that suited me, and I killed 11 fighters in succession, filling in my weaknesses.”
"My strength, speed, dodging skills, and attacking skills were all enhanced.”
"I got what I wanted.”
"But I felt empty.”
"Thankfully! There’s this ‘game,’ it gave me a reason to continue.”
Whew!
The ‘Heartseeker’ took a deep breath and greeted Jason with a fist and palm salute.
"Todd, please enlighten me.”
As his voice fell, the ‘Heartseeker’ raised his hand again.
Swish!
The longsword hanging in the distance on the wall flew into his hand.
Clang!
The longsword was unsheathed, its scabbard shooting out straight towards Jason.
Bang!
The blade swung, the scabbard scattering away, but at that moment, a flash of light followed it.
Jason couldn’t help but close his eyes.
The sword in the ‘Heartseeker’s hand!
It was the sword reflecting the bright light!
And the moment Jason closed his eyes, the sword thrust forward swiftly.
Just like the ‘Heartseeker’s palm.
The sword was silent as well.
Like a venomous snake, it coiled towards Jason’s neck.
"Be careful!”
"Danger!”
…
The ‘audience’ in Jason’s live stream shouted out once again.
They hadn’t expected the ‘Heartseeker’ to be so cunning.
Not only did he attack with the scabbard, but he also used the blade’s reflection.
And, that long speech just now… was it also to distract Jason?
Many speculated, and then began to vent their dissatisfaction through barrage comments.
"So cunning!”
"Such a cunning guy!”
"What cunning?”
"This is the art of deception in warfare!”
"A bunch of people raised in a greenhouse, with no idea what cruelty is!”
Heartseeker’ is sure to win!”
…
Naturally, another round of verbal confrontation began.
Their eyes were glued to the screen, their fingers tapping away on the keyboard.
Tap, tap, tap.
Ding!
The sound of the keyboard was suppressed by a long howl.
The silent longsword did not touch Jason’s neck; it was cut by Jason’s short-handled Broad Blade Cleaver as if it were a snake struck at its vital points, and the longsword was instantly deflected.
However, this time the ‘Heartseeker’ did not retreat as he had before.
The one whose sword had been deflected crouched low, squared his shoulders, and charged at Jason.
Whoosh!
Invisible force started to burst forth from inside the ‘Heartseeker.’
The ‘Heartseeker,’ who already had a tall stature and even muscles, suddenly bulged a whole size bigger.
Especially the raised shoulders, where the muscles underwent subtle changes.
Even more solid!
Even more… of a sharp edge!
Yes!
It was a sensation of sharpness!
A kind of sharpness similar to his palms, yet slightly different.
It was a ‘sharpness’ that changed shape through the bulging of muscles.
Not an overt sharpness!
But a contained sharpness!
Like a ‘war hammer.’
Even under the ‘Heartseeker’s’ charge, this ‘war hammer’ emitted a spine-tingling sound.
And then, the ‘Heartseeker’ slammed heavily onto Jason’s chest.
Boom!
The ‘war hammer’-like shoulder, fierce in momentum, smashed onto Jason’s chest, but Jason didn’t retreat a step; it was the ‘Heartseeker’ who changed color and staggered back three steps.
Hard!
Too hard!
The ‘Heartseeker’ had known about Jason’s strong defenses when his palm hadn’t been able to pierce Jason’s skin.
It was a defense even stronger than what he had seen in the videos!
‘The Heart Extractor’ had noticed Jason right after the moment he performed his piercing strike for the third time.
Especially the ‘defensive strength’ Jason had shown on his second piercing strike had drawn ‘The Heart Extractor’s’ side glance.
However, ‘The Heart Extractor’ did not care.
Because he too could withstand the ‘Beast Trap’ with ease.
And he could do it very effortlessly at that.
Or rather, anyone who could be called a ‘fighter’ was able to do so.
But most fighters could not withstand the puncturing force of his palm strikes.
So, after experiencing the puncturing palm strike just now, he used an even more powerful attack!
A secret technique that followed the same principle as the palm sword thrust: the Shoulder Smash!
It was designed specifically to counter people like Jason with strong physical defenses.
But!
It was still useless!
Jason had taken ‘The Shoulder Smash’ without a flinch, completely unharmed!
‘The Heart Extractor’ suppressed the shock in his heart, and once again lowered his body, braced his shoulder, and launched himself forward in a body slam.
Shoulder Smash!
Another Shoulder Smash!
However, this ‘Shoulder Smash’ was different from the previous ones!
This time, ‘The Heart Extractor’s speed had increased!
And moreover, the pores of his skin had slightly opened up!
Streams of crimson began to appear.
Then, they turned into steam!
Hissss! Hissssss!
Among the dense, buzzing sounds, most of ‘The Heart Extractor’s upper body turned a deep red.
The crimson steam bursting forth became raging air currents that carried his body forward with increased speed.
Whoosh!
‘The Heart Extractor’s’ speed had already been very fast before, but now it was even faster.
Not only faster!
But also stronger!
"Shoulder Smash. Steam Hammer!”
‘The Heart Extractor’ roared as if he was a steam hammer swung by an invisible giant, charging towards Jason.
Jason still did not dodge!
Facing the incoming ‘The Heart Extractor,’ Jason launched himself in a charge!
Thump, thump-thump!
As his heart throbbed violently, Jason went from a standstill to a sprint in an instant.
One of his core skills that he constantly improved and incorporated began to accelerate: [War Pattern. Prussian. Griffin. Shadow Blend Body Forging Technique].
Stomp, stomp-stomp!
The running Jason was like a charging griffin.
But after only two steps, he became a glowing giant.
And then a moment later, the giant transformed into a chariot!
A chariot shimmering with a golden glow, as if it had burst forth from the sun, racing across the battlefield!
The next moment—
Boom!
Jason collided with ‘The Heart Extractor.’
In an explosion-like sound, the two were locked in a standstill for less than a second.
Crack, crack-crack.
The continuous sounds of snapping bones and tearing muscles began to echo.
‘The Heart Extractor’ was sent flying backward, crashing heavily onto the ground.
Half his body splayed out on the ground like smashed meat, and blood spurted out like it cost nothing.
His eyes were still bright.
But they held disbelief.
He had lost the head-on collision!
Combining two secret techniques for a more powerful ‘Shoulder Smash. Steam Hammer,’ he had still lost.
Struggling to lift his head, ‘The Heart Extractor’ looked at Jason, standing unscathed at his original position and couldn’t help but open his mouth.
"What kind of secret technique is this?”
He was certain it was a secret technique!
The fighters’ secret technique!
His eyes involuntarily became fervent.
Jason did not have the habit of replying to an enemy’s words. He simply remained silent and walked toward ‘The Heart Extractor.’
Watching Jason’s movements, ‘The Heart Extractor’ laughed again.

"Nice personality!”
"I like it!”
"So, hand over your ‘secret technique’ to me, and I will cherish it in my heart!”
‘The Heart Extractor’ laughed uproariously, and his entire body just exploded.
Bang!
The shockwave from the explosion charged straight toward Jason and also shattered the surveillance cameras all around.
The immense impact made Jason’s body shake continuously.
And the flesh and blood belonging to ‘The Heart Extractor’ that scattered in the explosion flew towards Jason.
Malevolent.
Malicious intents.
Deviousness.
All sorts of negative emotions that Jason was familiar with began to emerge.
He glanced up.
His vision was filled with crimson.
Whispering, sly voices echoed in his ears.
Jason’s lips, hidden behind the hockey mask, couldn’t help but curl up slightly.
Then, he began to speak slowly—
"Yi!”
