Kaidan Game Train: Abide Rule or Die!
Chapter 1997: Face to Face
Moreover, Zheng Yuci seemed completely at ease.
No one knew how long his Psychic Power could last.
"Psychic Power can’t keep going forever, can it?" Jiang Chengfeng said, "Psychic Super Evolution imposes a greater burden than other types of Super Evolution. After all, once you use your brain too much, you might not remain so clear-headed."
"The Resistance Army hasn’t been able to get close all night, is he perhaps a Spatial Super Evolver?"
Thinking this way does make it more reasonable. Props are unpredictable, and having keen insight into spatial changes can perfectly complement lapses.
"So far, we haven’t seen it," said Xu Huo.
"If it doesn’t work, use the Interference Props. I can’t believe..." Jiang Chengfeng felt the Resistance Army was somewhat failing. Few people aside, even now, they aren’t finding ways to break through. However, before finishing his sentence, he abruptly closed his mouth and turned to look at the person beside him, "Are you Psychic or Spatial?"
"Before the library, you only used Spatial Power."
Xu Huo focused his attention on Zheng Yuci, casually responding, "Doesn’t matter."
Jiang Chengfeng rolled his eyes, "Super Evolution is impressive indeed."
More and more people were watching the battle, but most were Outer Zone players who were originally nearby. Perhaps players from the Eastern District hadn’t had time to receive the news, as everyone was hurried and chaotic. Yet, it’s strange that the Resistance Army still hadn’t increased their manpower.
The few who came with the Nefarious Mask had already been dealt with by those two Rank-A players. After handling the tasks Zheng Yuci assigned, the two didn’t intervene in the fight, merely waited aside. Seeing their noticeably dull expressions, it was clear even by thinking with their feet that they had long been influenced by Zheng Yuci’s hypnosis during their interactions.
Zheng Yuci didn’t leave, nor did the Resistance Army increase their manpower... What were they waiting for?
Suddenly, Xu Huo’s gaze fixed on something; he found that Zheng Yuci left something resembling a Shadow where he walked. Because of the collapsed building nearby, this Shadow was only half-visible. If not for its clearly long hair, it would have easily been mistaken for a shade or simply uncleaned debris.
Was it Zheng Yuci, or the Resistance Army?
After fighting intensely for nearly half a minute, despite using the Interference Props, they were constantly under the influence of Psychic Power. Eventually, the Nefarious Mask couldn’t help but retreat and pause, staring at Zheng Yuci with unabated killing intent.
Zheng Yuci, conversely, looked puzzled, "Why do you want to kill me so badly?"
"You did what you shouldn’t have," said the Nefarious Mask, "Not only controlling the existing players in Yuquan City but also attempting to control Yuquan City’s future!"
"You’re talking about adding sterilization Potion to water and air." Zheng Yuci spoke indifferently about the unspeakable inside story, "That wasn’t my decision. Shouldn’t you be looking for Agor Corporation?"
"Because of your presence, Agor dared to do this," snarled the Nefarious Mask, "Taking your life will solve everything."
Zheng Yuci maintained his indifferent demeanor, staring at this Resistance Army member and slowly said, "Players in Yuquan City are very weak. If my research succeeds, you can benefit too." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
"Save your nonsense for Agor," the Nefarious Mask said coldly, "If that chip is so good, why don’t you implant it in your own brain? Though Yuquan City is frail, we won’t step forward by walking over our compatriots’ corpses!"
"I see," Zheng Yuci slightly nodded, "You lack foresight."
Their exchange was completely on different levels. These words weren’t truly meant to persuade each other. After a brief ceasefire, the Nefarious Mask began attacking again. But this time, Zheng Yuci was no longer just defending. With his right hand rotating in a circle in the air, three hexagonal Mental Portals instantly appeared.
The Nefarious Mask, unable to pull back in time, crashed into the first portal, seemingly passing through an invisible pathway between the three portals. He appeared straight in front of the portals three times, disappeared after passing through, and finally arrived in front of Zheng Yuci.
Speaking of "in front," he was actually ten meters away from Zheng Yuci. Following a snap of fingers, those three hexagonal portals moved toward the Nefarious Mask, surrounding him and simultaneously copying the same hexagonal portals until this Resistance Army member was completely enveloped.
These portals then turned into a thin layer of Defensive Barrier. Through these barriers, the observing players could clearly see the Nefarious Mask struggling painfully inside. Unknown to what he encountered, this Resistance Army member aggressively gripped his own neck, fighting against himself through the Defensive Barrier, seemingly forgetting all about Zheng Yuci.
At this moment, another Zheng Yuci appeared behind him.
Not an illusion, indeed another Zheng Yuci outside, and within the barrier formed by hexagonal portals stood another one. The second Zheng Yuci stood behind the struggling Nefarious Mask, raised hands turning into blades that gently sliced open his scalp.
"None of the experimental materials Agor sent were very good. I’ve always hoped they’d send Resistance Army people, but unfortunately, they haven’t completed that task yet," said the Zheng Yuci inside the barrier, "Let’s see if this last operation can yield unexpected results."
The whole Eastern District is covered with mutant plants able to sense spiritual power. During Zheng Yuci’s battle with the Nefarious Mask, he precisely controlled the area of the Spiritual World, so the affected mutant plants were mainly concentrated on the street where they fought. As time dragged on, the growth of mutant plants reached its limit so that many collapsed buildings donned a layer of greenery, and several hung down from tilted skyscrapers. Excessive vitality seemed to obscure the aftermath of the slaughter, presenting a false scene of prosperity.
Actually, the growth of mutant plants had long ceased. The entire street appeared like a green meadow with occasional winds creating small ripples. However, just as the second Zheng Yuci plunged the blade into the Nefarious Mask’s skull, these green ripples suddenly turned into surging waves, violently spraying outward in a massive rush, like giant waves, newly grown pale-colored leaves rapidly obscuring all original darker leaves!
The entire street roiled, mutant plants grew so lush that even Zheng Yuci had to leave the ground. He looked down into the "Operating Room" only to find the Resistance Army inside had vanished.
Standing back atop the building, he looked straight ahead at a person standing on the tilted corner of the opposite building, similarly staring at him.
His gaze didn’t shift away from the Nefarious Mask behind him, clutching his head and drinking the Self-Healing Potion. Zheng Yuci smiled at Xu Huo, "It’s you, isn’t it?"
