Strongest Hammer God novel Chapter 551

The attacks became faster and more complex.

Lady Arrowstrife's arrows were curving in the air unpredictably, and Kyle had to react accordingly.

The times he got hit increased, but he kept at it.

Kyle could still perceive the attacks, but his body was simply not reacting fast enough.

Fortunately, he grew better and better at reacting to the attacks.

The attacks became more intense and complex yet again, and Kyle had to keep defending.

One time, when he got hit, Kyle readied himself for another attack.

Yet, before he could step away from the wall, another arrow shot at him.

This completely took him off guard, and he just watched as the arrow flew right towards his face.

While Kyle's mind was frozen, his body moved on its own.

He dropped his hammer, and his hand grabbed the arrow with unreal speed.

Yet, the power of the arrow was so great that Kyle's hand only barely slowed it down.

CRACK!

The arrow hit the wall, just where Kyle's head had been. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

While he had only managed to slow the arrow down, it had bought Kyle enough time to bend his neck to the side, pulling his head out of the way.

For a moment, Kyle just looked at the arrow beside him in shock.

Then, no more attacks appeared.

"The last attack has to be genuine," Lady Arrowstrife said. "Law Comprehension includes accumulation and incorporation. Over the past two years, you have accumulated experience, but most of the time, you need a push to incorporate everything you have learned."

Kyle took a deep breath, still shocked by his brush with death.

"That… came as a surprise," he said.

After that, he looked at Lady Arrowstrife. "That really felt dangerous."

"It was dangerous," she answered. "This was an attack aimed to kill you with just enough power."

"But you would've stopped it if I had failed, right?" Kyle asked.

"No," she said.

Kyle blinked a couple of times.

"Wait, if I had failed to deal with this, you would have killed me?" Kyle asked.

"Correct," Lady Arrowstrife answered evenly.

"Why?" he asked.

"50% to 70% of Transcendents would have died in your situation," she said. "The reason is that their affinity for the Law of Body isn't sufficient. You know several Body Fragments already and are still quite young. Your affinity is naturally very high."

"I was expecting you to succeed."

Cold sweat ran down Kyle's back.

That was… a bit.

"Your persona is free to use the Fragment of Nerves," Lady Arrowstrife said. "Hiding this Fragment is much more difficult than the others, and your persona knows that. Because of that, it is better to not hide it. Having one Fragment of the Body is not too outstanding to make you a target."

Kyle was still reeling a bit because of his sudden brush with death, but he still listened.

'Well, at least I have the Fragment of Nerves now. Two more to go.'

Kyle took a deep breath to calm down.

"So, what now?" he asked.

"Next, I need to know what Complex Law you are searching for," she said. "I have noticed that you were surrounded by Yin-Fire for over a century. Have you made any headway?"

"I know the Law of Yin-Fire, yes," Kyle said.
