Illimitable Until Death Chapter 230

Chapter 230

Amidst the resounding ‘chī’ sound, a faint wisp of smoke began to rise from the shattered muzzle of the Glock in Fang Li’s hand before being carried away by the wind.
Fang Li stared at the destroyed firearm in his hand and was momentarily speechless.
Just as Tohyama Kinji had said, in the past, during their time in the Assault Division, they had engaged in numerous battles.
Back then, Tohyama Kinji had lost count of how many times he had fallen to Fang Li’s Invisible Bullet.
Until today, Tohyama Kinji had left the Assault Division and transitioned into the Inquesta Division. Not only had he mastered the Invisible Bullet, but he had also developed the Mirror, a technique combining offense and defense.
This realization dawned on Fang Li.
In this past year, not only had he grown stronger, but Tohyama Kinji had also made significant strides.
Even if this strength only manifested in his Hysteria Mode, it was undeniable.
Yet…
“Since you’ve become this strong…” Fang Li gazed in Tohyama Kinji’s direction and spoke, “Why are you still struggling?”
Hearing this, Tohyama Kinji replied with a self-deprecating tone, “Even if I’m stronger now, there’s no way I can surpass my Big Brother.”
“Your Big Brother?” Fang Li furrowed his brow and inquired, “What’s the story behind that?”
“… It’s none of your concern.” Tohyama Kinji took a deep breath, then shifted his gaze back to Fang Li, saying, “In any case, stay put here tonight and don’t think about leaving.”
“Is that so?” Fang Li sighed, followed by a faint smile. “Do you really think that by dismantling my Invisible Bullet and destroying my gun, I’m rendered powerless in combat?”
Upon hearing this, Tohyama Kinji felt a tightness in his chest.
“I said this during the entrance exam a year ago.” Fang Li continued, “Lacking a weapon doesn’t mean you can’t fight.”
As Fang Li finished speaking, he suddenly vanished on the spot.
“————!”
Tohyama Kinji reacted instantly.
However, he didn’t hesitate; he pointed his Beretta toward the ground and decisively pulled the trigger.
“Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang————!”
Amidst the continuous gunfire, Tohyama Kinji repeatedly pulled the trigger, causing the gun’s muzzle to emit intense flames.
Bullets were fired one by one, striking the ground before rebounding off with a series of ‘clang clang’ sounds, ricocheting in all directions.
Soon after, the bullets that had been shot in all directions collided with each other once again. Amidst the collision, they continuously flicked against one another.
In this situation, the bullets formed an extremely fast barrage that crisscrossed around Tohyama Kinji’s body, completely encasing him.
But it wasn’t encasing; it was protecting.
“Multiplicative Barrage…”
As if countless bullets were streaking around Tohyama Kinji’s body, he was entirely enveloped by the barrage formed by the bullets.
The extremely fast barrage served not to encircle, but to safeguard Tohyama Kinji.
As Fang Li darted toward Tohyama Kinji, intending to bring him down just as he had during the entrance exam, he abruptly halted his footsteps and Fang Li’s figure materialized beside Tohyama Kinji.
Tohyama Kinji immediately aimed his gun at Fang Li.
“Bang————!”
Without hesitation, Tohyama Kinji pulled the trigger of his Beretta, and bullets shot out smoothly, piercing through the protective web of bullets known as the Multiplicative Barrage. They sped toward Fang Li’s direction.
“Clang————!”
In the resonating collision sound reminiscent of metal meeting metal, the bullets were deflected heavily by Fang Li.
The dagger that resembled a crescent moon was finally firmly grasped by Fang Li.
“Bang Bang————!”
Tohyama Kinji once again pulled the trigger, and this time, he engaged the double-shot mode, causing two bullets to violently shoot towards Fang Li simultaneously.
“Clang Clang————!”
Fang Li swiftly swung his dagger, fully deflecting the incoming pair of bullets.
However, just as Fang Li was preparing to counterattack, a sudden transformation occurred within the barrage of bullets that were colliding and interacting around Tohyama Kinji’s body.
This transformation was a result of the three bullets that Fang Li had flicked away earlier— these bullets unexpectedly joined the barrage.
Just like during the entrance exam a year ago, Tohyama Kinji calculated the trajectory of the bullets even when Fang Li flicked them away. As a result, the three bullets that Fang Li had deflected were incorporated into the multiplying barrage surrounding Tohyama Kinji’s body.
In an instant, the barrage, now including the three newly added bullets, changed its direction after a series of collisions. It no longer lingered around Tohyama Kinji’s body, but instead, it moved like a stream of light, tracing an unbelievable trajectory as it violently shot toward Fang Li.
The bullets, each flying with an irregular path, collectively surged toward Fang Li like bolts of lightning.
“Bullet Thunder…”
With Tohyama Kinji’s voice, the barrage known as Bullet Thunder enveloped Fang Li, bombarding his entire body with bullets.
This time, Fang Li couldn’t ignore the threat posed by the bullets.
In response, Fang Li forcefully pushed off the ground, quickly retreating while raising his dagger.
“Flashing Scabbard – Eight Flower Mirror…”
In the next instant, Fang Li’s dagger was swung extremely fast, causing the slashes to manifest as blade lights that resembled a dance of sword shadows. This barrage of blade lights met the incoming barrage of bullets head-on.
“Clang Clang Clang Clang————!”
Amidst the clear collision sounds, the dagger and bullets clashed at an incredible pace, creating bursts of sparks in the air.
As Fang Li retreated swiftly, he simultaneously flicked away the bullets that approached him. By the time Fang Li had deflected the final bullet, he had retreated nearly ten meters.
During this time, Tohyama Kinji took the opportunity to eject the empty magazine from his Beretta, replacing it with a new one loaded with bullets. His gun was once again aimed at Fang Li.
Invisible Bullet.
Mirror.
Multiplying Barrage.
Bullet Thunder.
One incomprehensible gun technique after another was displayed by Tohyama Kinji, successfully driving back Fang Li, who had displayed his true skills.
In comparison to the entrance exam, Tohyama Kinji had indeed grown much stronger.
And the reason behind Tohyama Kinji’s newfound strength likely owed a large portion to Fang Li.
“During the year in the Assault Division, I wasn’t merely someone you could beat up as a training partner.” Tohyama Kinji’s gaze locked onto Fang Li’s body, and he spoke to Fang Li, “When you made me your training partner back then, pushing me into Hysteria Mode in various ways, thanks to that, I received ample training as well.”
In his Hysteria Mode, Tohyama Kinji’s thought processing speed reached another dimension.
With such thought processing speed, Tohyama Kinji had been able to develop numerous techniques.
Fang Li had often manipulated Tohyama Kinji into entering Hysteria Mode in order to keep pace with him during their training.
Now, Fang Li was finally facing the consequences of those actions.
“I see. However, I’m not just an easy target either…” As Fang Li’s words fell, an unusual sound echoed from Tohyama Kinji’s Beretta.
“Snap…”
Amidst the faint sound, the body of Tohyama Kinji’s Beretta abruptly fractured.
