### 149

The bolt streaks towards you and, for one terrible moment, you are frozen rigid with fear. Then your natural Kai instincts take command, and suddenly it is as if everything is happening in slow motion. You are in mortal danger and must act swiftly if you are to survive.

If you possess Kai-alchemy and wish to use it, turn to 71.

If you do not, you can attempt to avoid the bolt by diving out of the building. Turn to 7.
