A Scientific Urban Detective

On the other side, Alligator Jaws was growing increasingly frustrated, feeling that this intruder was just too tough.

She had been fighting for quite a while, and according to competition judging, the vast majority of her attacks were "effective strikes," but the opponent, aside from looking a bit disheveled and dusty, hadn't even suffered a nosebleed.

If she didn't actually feel the impact of her blows on his body, Alligator Jaws would have even suspected that she hadn't really hit him.

"Are all telekinetics this durable?"

Alligator Jaws knew that telekinetics could use their powers for limited defense, and she had fought other telekinetics before, but encountering someone as "unyielding" as Lin Wuming was a first.

Could he be a telekinetic who specializes in defense?

Alligator Jaws grabbed Lin Wuming's arm again, and under the effect of her "Fulcrum Fiend" ability, her fingers clamped onto Lin Wuming's wrist and forearm like a vise.

She twisted his wrist and dragged him, executing a grappling technique.

Although, in terms of personality and personal preference, Alligator Jaws preferred to attack directly with her fists and feet,

considering the effect of her "Fulcrum Fiend" superpower, throws and joint locks were the most powerful techniques in Alligator Jaws' skill set.

Lin Wuming certainly didn't dare to resist the enemy's joint locks head-on, so he had to twist his body in response to her force, preventing her technique from fully forming.

"Hmph, you can't escape! Give up!" Alligator Jaws snorted, forcing the enemy to move according to her intentions—which was one of the purposes of joint locks.

The ultimate result would be that the target would lock their own joints; unless they broke their bones, they would never be able to break free.

Lin Wuming was quickly forced into this situation. His arm was twisted to a very dangerous angle, with the risk of breaking at any moment.

But Lin Wuming had his own way to break free…

The best way to break a joint lock was not to use another joint lock to unlock it, but to use brute force—overpowering it with pure strength!

Indeed, joint locks were, to some extent, a miraculous technique for "overcoming strength with weakness," but when the difference in strength between the two sides was large enough, the side with the strength advantage could do whatever they wanted.

If the enemy's arm muscles alone far exceeded your entire body's strength, then even if you locked his arm with all your might, it would be useless—he could completely wrench it back with brute force.

Lin Wuming certainly didn't have that much strength, but he had telekinetic power, telekinetic power exceeding half a ton!

However, Lin Wuming didn't directly break the lock—a mere half-ton of telekinetic power was no match for "Fulcrum Fiend"—he used his telekinetic power to lift the girl's body up.

Once she was off the ground, the largest and most reliable "fulcrum" no longer existed.

Without a point to borrow strength from, Alligator Jaws could no longer break free from Lin Wuming's telekinetic restraints!

It should be noted that during the previous battle, it wasn't that Lin Wuming hadn't thought about directly grabbing the enemy's body with his telekinetic power; however, Alligator Jaws, with her "Fulcrum Fiend," was able to unleash powerful force each time, breaking free from the restraints.

Using the earth as a fulcrum, although she couldn't move the earth, she had more than enough power to move herself.

Of course, in Lin Wuming's deduction, this girl's superpower was like the mythical giant Antaeus, who could gain a continuous stream of power as long as his feet were on the ground, making him invincible.

Now that he had finally seized the opportunity to get the enemy's feet off the ground, Lin Wuming was willing to risk having an arm broken to achieve this goal!

Although it was a lucky hit, in terms of the result, Lin Wuming's efforts and tactics had finally worked.

Losing her important fulcrum, Alligator Jaws herself started to panic.

Of course, what she feared wasn't "being off the ground," but "being restrained by telekinetic power!"

If she couldn't break free from the telekinetic restraints, it would mean that the telekinetic could do whatever he wanted to her, and the battle would end quickly!

Without hesitation, Alligator Jaws gave up on breaking Lin Wuming's arm, and instead chose to struggle to break free from the telekinetic restraints.

Having regained a slight advantage, Lin Wuming breathed a sigh of relief and immediately pressed his attack, using his telekinetic power to grab the enemy again.

But Alligator Jaws moved faster, and the moment she broke free, she had already made contact with the ground again, gaining endless power.

Lin Wuming's offensive was blocked again.

Next, Alligator Jaws became much more cautious, not daring to easily use large-scale grappling or joint locks.

Instead, she adopted sweeping kicking techniques, using her legs as levers to apply brute force.

Lin Wuming tried to take a kick, and his whole body was instantly sent flying.

Or more accurately, he was "ejected"—the essence of Alligator Jaws' attack was to use her legs as levers, launching Lin Wuming like a catapult.

This kick didn't even break through Lin Wuming's telekinetic barrier; instead, it sent him and the barrier flying together.

But undeniably, this kick had immense power.

Due to her superpower and power exertion techniques, Alligator Jaws didn't expect the kick itself to cause damage to the enemy; the real damage was after that—

Lin Wuming was like a soccer ball kicked with great force, crashing heavily into the wall.

With a muffled boom, the wall collapsed. Lin Wuming was buried under the rubble.

In essence, this was also a type of throw.

Lin Wuming pushed away the rubble and was about to get up, but Alligator Jaws pounced on him.

Having grown tired of this battle… or rather, sensing that she might lose, Alligator Jaws became impatient.

She no longer cared about the principles of a martial artist, grabbed a cement brick from the ground, and smashed it down on Lin Wuming's head!

The "Fulcrum Fiend" superpower was more powerful with weapons than with bare hands, and more effective with ranged throwing weapons than with melee weapons.

Alligator Jaws transformed into a literal "battering ram" and "catapult," unleashing a devastating blow.

Even if she were facing a piece of steel at this moment, it was destined to be smashed and deformed.

Boom!

The cement brick in Alligator Jaws' hand instantly shattered into dust, and the attacked ruins of the wall also turned into powder.

Only the expected bloodstains were missing.

Lin Wuming was no longer in the same spot.

Looking up, Lin Wuming had already hidden in the area behind the wall.

"Tell me," Lin Wuming sighed, "do I really not have the talent for martial arts?"

In addition to restraining enemies, telekinetic power could also be used to move oneself—at the critical moment just now, Lin Wuming almost instinctively manipulated his telekinetic power to pull himself away from the enemy's attack.

Facts had proven once again that, for Lin Wuming, telekinetic power was more convenient and efficient than his own body…

Lin Wuming had to admit that the martial arts competition was just a pipe dream.
