Chapter 650 - 685: Deadly Flying Dagger
Li Yifei moved. Although he spoke with ease, he had experienced Sophia’s Flying Daggers and knew they were more dangerous than a gun. He could dodge bullets not because he moved faster than them, but because at the moment the trigger was pulled, he could predict the bullet’s trajectory and then make an evasive move, making it look like he was dodging the bullet itself.
Sophia’s method of throwing Flying Daggers made it even harder to predict her movements, and that was the most dangerous part.
Standing still and waiting for Sophia to throw her dagger was undoubtedly a foolish choice. He had to keep moving to force Sophia to follow his movements, which would allow him to judge the direction of her Flying Daggers.
Sophia didn’t make an immediate move. She squinted her eyes and turned slightly on her left foot, always facing Li Yifei, like a grandmaster facing an ordinary martial artist with calm composure.
However, Sophia’s mind wasn’t as calm as her appearance. Li Yifei’s footwork seemed simple, yet it concealed an oddity. Just a moment ago, he seemed to move forward, then suddenly stepped back, and what appeared as a left movement shifted slightly to the right.
When playing with Flying Daggers, the primary skill was to judge the opponent’s position accurately, so that the thrown dagger would hit the target. Against ordinary people, Sophia could almost completely ignore this slight error, because her daggers were so fast that the target’s movement within range was almost negligible.
But now, she faced Li Yifei, the strongest opponent she had encountered. Even the slightest deviation felt like a failure, so she held back several times just as she was about to make her move.
"Hmph, I want to see how long you can keep this up. It’s exhausting to maintain such movement, and once you slow down, you’re dead." Sophia wasn’t in a hurry. A master of her caliber had solid mental strength. An impatient person could never become a true master, let alone an assassin.
