Bai Ye was a bit stunned by this move.
He could understand if the opponent dodged his attack or blocked it, but to suddenly trap his weapon underfoot, what kind of trick was that?
It was only because the Sebonkaku's design was peculiar, lengthening like a snake and difficult to exert force in its stationary state, that the opponent succeeded.
Then, Bai Ye suddenly wondered if the Predator had seen through this, and that's why it acted like this.
If that were the case, Bai Ye could only say: Xiu'er, why are you so Xiu?
While Bai Ye was thinking, the Predator had already started running, rapidly approaching Bai Ye with great speed.
Bai Ye grinned. Even if the Sebonkaku's swing was restrained...
He didn't have only one weapon!
Suddenly, a cold glint appeared, exceptionally bright under the night's reflection, heading forward and straight for the Predator's face.
Clang!
The Predator quickly raised its wrist blade, and after colliding with the sword's gleam, it knocked the Frost Sword aside. However, the Predator was forced to stop.
But Bai Ye had no intention of stopping.
"Undead Bird!" Bai Ye grunted and said, "Phoenix Flame!"
With a boom!
As Bai Ye's fist struck out, a massive fireball suddenly exploded, burning fiercely in front of Bai Ye, then advancing forward, covering the Predator.
The Predator was more agile than Bai Ye had imagined. It leaped to the side, then pushed off the ground with one palm, its body bouncing sideways again. As it landed after rotating in mid-air, it pushed off with its toes once more, propelling itself rapidly backward.
This sequence of movements was fluid and seamless, leaving the fiery area almost instantly. It even left Bai Ye bewildered again.
Are you practicing gymnastics?
And just as Bai Ye was dazed, mechanical sounds came from the Predator, and then a shoulder cannon, about the size of a water bottle, shot out from its right shoulder.
Upon seeing this thing, Bai Ye immediately veered to the side and ran!
The Predator's shoulder cannon, its correct name should be plasma cannon, was a symbol of the Predators' advanced technological civilization.
Of course, if one were to grade technological civilizations, the Predators would be at the lowest tier of advanced technology civilizations. Their plasma cannons and cloaking devices were their best technological products, but they only reached the level of black quality.
However, even so, it was still a futuristic weapon belonging to advanced items. Getting hit head-on by this thing was no trivial matter.
Therefore, Bai Ye kept running, while the Predator circled in place, using the infrared system of its bio-mask to continuously track Bai Ye but never managing to lock onto him.
And at this moment...
Jin Sha secretly approached the Predator from behind.
This was because Jin Sha noticed that the other party seemed to have overlooked her presence.
Since that was the case...
"Duo Duo Bing!" Jin Sha suddenly waved and shouted, "Mirror Shot!"
Duo Duo Bing's body suddenly emitted a metallic luster, and then a white beam of light was fired forward.
The Predator reacted extremely quickly. Upon hearing the movement behind it, it immediately turned around.
Rumble!
The Predator's shoulder cannon fired.
A plasma beam appeared and collided with Duo Duo Bing's Mirror Shot!
The result...
There was no suspense!
Although the Predator's shoulder cannon could only be considered entry-level among futuristic weapons, it was still an advanced item. How could Duo Duo Bing's attack compare?
Therefore, after a loud explosion.
Duo Duo Bing's beam was instantly shattered, and the massive impact generated a shockwave that rippled outwards in circles.
Jin Sha cried out in surprise, and together with Duo Duo Bing, they were blown away, crashing heavily onto the ground. Her chest felt a dull ache, and then Jin Sha tilted her head and spat out a mouthful of blood, staining the snow red.
However, Bai Ye wanted to shout...
Well done!
The Predator's shoulder cannons had many varieties, and the one on the Predator in front of them was clearly not a rapid-fire type, but a charge-up type.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have aimed for so long without being able to guarantee a hit on Bai Ye earlier.
And charge-up shoulder cannons, while more powerful, had a drawback...
They required charging before firing!
Bai Ye sprinted towards the Predator. As expected, the Predator turned around and swung its wrist blade, but did not use its shoulder cannon again.
This indicated that Bai Ye's guess was correct; the other party didn't *not* want to use it, but simply couldn't temporarily!
Clang!
In an instant, Bai Ye arrived, his Sebonkaku slashing forward and hitting the Predator's wrist blade fiercely, and then...
Puff!
At the moment the Predator raised its wrist blade to block the attack, the Frost Sword turned into a silver light, attacking from behind and piercing the Predator's lower abdomen.
The intense pain caused the Predator's body to tremble, and it also stirred its ferocity!
Roaring in anger, the Predator's strength seemed to have increased significantly. It blocked the Sebonkaku with one hand, grabbed Bai Ye's clothes with the other, and lifted Bai Ye up forcefully.
But...
Bai Ye's methods were not limited to "external objects" like weapons!
"Undead Bird!"
Instantly, as the Predator grabbed him, flames erupted from Bai Ye's body, engulfing him and making him look like a giant fireball.
The Predator couldn't help but retract its hands, and in that split second...
Bai Ye flipped, and as he landed, he was directly behind the Predator. At the same time, his Sebonkaku stretched out again, coiling around the Predator's neck.
The next moment...
With a "puff"!
The Predator's body suddenly froze in place, and then its head slowly tilted and suddenly fell from its neck.
Thud!
Along with the falling head, the Predator's body also pitched forward, crashing heavily to the ground.
Predator...
Death!
Bai Ye took a deep breath, sheathed his Zanpakuto, and then walked towards Jin Sha, asking, "How are you? Are you okay?"
Jin Sha looked uncomfortable after taking a blow, but after catching her breath, she felt much better. She managed to support herself and waved her hand at Bai Ye, saying, "I'm fine."
Bai Ye nodded, reached out, and pulled Jin Sha up from the ground, saying, "We need to keep moving and leave here as soon as possible, because we can't be sure if there are more Predators, or how many."
Jin Sha said, "But we don't have the snowmobile anymore."
Bai Ye shrugged, "Then we walk."
In such snowy weather and at night, walking would indeed be difficult. But according to Bai Ye's memory, the monitoring station wasn't far from the scientific expedition base.
