Bai Ye was a little stunned by this move.
He could understand dodging his attack or blocking it, but what was the deal with suddenly having his weapon stomped underfoot?
It was only because She Weimar's design was peculiar, elongating like a snake. In its stopped state, it was difficult to exert force, which allowed the opponent to get the upper hand.
Then, Bai Ye suddenly felt, could it be that the Predator saw through this and acted accordingly?
If that was the case, Bai Ye could only say one thing: Xiu'er, why are you so Xiu?
As Bai Ye was thinking, the Predator had already started running, rapidly approaching Bai Ye with incredible speed.
Bai Ye grinned. Even if he had immobilized She Weimar's swing…
He didn't only have one weapon!
Suddenly, a cold glint appeared, exceptionally bright under the night's reflection, heading forward, straight for the Predator's face.
Clang!
The Predator quickly raised its wrist blade. After colliding with the sword light, it knocked away the Frost Condensing Sword. However, the Predator was forced to stop.
But Bai Ye had no intention of stopping.
"Phoenix!" 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 pushing forward, engulfing 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, propelling itself sideways again. As it landed after rotating in mid-air, it pushed off with its toes once more, making its body quickly retreat backward.
This series of movements was fluid and seamless. It left the area covered by flames almost instantaneously, leaving Bai Ye bewildered again.
Are you a gymnast?
And at the moment Bai Ye was stunned, mechanical whirring sounds came from the Predator. Immediately, a shoulder cannon, about the size of a water bottle, shot out from its right shoulder.
Upon seeing this thing, Bai Ye quickly maneuvered to the side and ran!
The Predator's shoulder cannon, more accurately called a plasma caster, was a symbol of the Predator's advanced technological civilization.
Of course, if one were to grade technological civilizations, the Predators were probably the lowest tier of advanced technology civilizations. Their plasma casters and cloaking devices were their best technological products, but they only reached the level of black quality.
However, even so, it was still a future technological weapon of a high-level item. Being hit directly by this thing was no joke.
Thus, Bai Ye kept running, while the Predator circled in place, using the infrared system of its bio-mask to constantly track Bai Ye, but unable to lock onto him.
And at this moment…
Jin Sha secretly crept behind the Predator.
This was because Jin Sha realized the opponent 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 sheen, and then, a white beam of light was fired, heading forward.
The Predator reacted extremely quickly. Upon hearing the movement behind it, it immediately turned around.
Boom!
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 was only an entry-level future technological weapon, it was still a high-level item. How could Duo Duo Bing's attack compare?
Therefore, after a loud bang.
Duo Duo Bing's beam was instantly shattered. The immense impact created a shockwave, with ripples continuously pushing outwards.
Jin Sha cried out in surprise and, along with Duo Duo Bing, was thrown back, smashing heavily onto the ground. A suffocating feeling in her chest, 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 him was clearly not a rapid-fire type, but a charge-up type.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have aimed for so long earlier when it couldn't guarantee hitting Bai Ye.
And the charge-up shoulder cannon, while more powerful, had the drawback of…
Needing to charge up 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 Bai Ye had guessed correctly; it wasn't that the opponent didn't want to use it, but that it was temporarily unusable!
Clang!
In an instant, Bai Ye arrived, his She Weimar slashing forward, striking the Predator's wrist blade fiercely, and then…
Pfft!
As the Predator raised its wrist blade to block the attack, the Frost Condensing Sword transformed into a silver light, striking from behind and piercing the Predator's lower abdomen.
The intense pain caused the Predator's body to tremble. It also ignited the Predator's ferocity!
With an angry roar, the Predator's strength seemed to increase significantly. It braced She Weimar with one hand and grabbed Bai Ye's clothes with the other, lifting Bai Ye forcefully.
But…
Bai Ye's methods were not limited to "external objects" like weapons!
"Phoenix!"
In an instant, as the Predator grabbed him, flames suddenly erupted from Bai Ye's body, enveloping him, making him look like a giant fireball.
The Predator instinctively retracted its hand. In that instant…
Bai Ye flipped over, and as he landed, he was directly behind the Predator. At the same time, his She Weimar elongated again, coiling around the Predator's neck.
The next instant…
With a *poof* sound!
The Predator's body suddenly stiffened in place. Then, its head slowly tilted, and suddenly fell from its neck.
Thump!
With the fall of its head, the Predator's body also pitched forward, crashing heavily onto the ground.
The Predator…
Dead!
Bai Ye took a deep breath, put away his Zanpakuto, and then walked over to Jin Sha, saying, "How are you? Are you alright?"
Jin Sha, after taking that blow, appeared somewhat uncomfortable, 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 there are."
Jin Sha said, "But we don't have a snowmobile anymore."
Bai Ye shrugged. "Then we walk."
In this snowy weather, and late at night, walking would indeed be difficult, but according to Bai Ye's memory, the monitoring station wasn't too far from the scientific expedition's base.
