"Screech!" The conical tool finally pierced Zheng Yuci’s other hand. At this moment, his two hands seemed to be controlled by two different people—one wanting to commit suicide, the other wanting to save himself.

Zheng Yuci was well aware of his situation, but he didn’t intend to resolve his predicament immediately. He let the tool press against his temple as he engaged in a mental battle. Then his gaze deepened, and several mental portals opened before him, followed by a figure appearing in his view.

Transferred through the portal was a man mirroring Zheng Yuci’s stance. However, he intended to stab the knife in his hand into his own head. The long robe uniform issued by the Agor Psychotherapists fluttered in the airflow, and beneath that ordinary face was an identification card.

Zheng Yuci glanced at the name on the card. The Eastern District player, who had arrived nearby but hadn’t approached, also saw the ID:

"Zhang Xian? Who?"

Many people didn’t know "Zhang Xian" because he was a psychotherapist who had just joined Agor not long ago and was fortunately captured during the previous attack incident by the Resistance Army "strategists" and survived miraculously.

The Eastern District player was unaware of when players had become mixed in with the psychotherapists, but they could see he intended to kill Zheng Yuci. Although Teacher Zhao tried to persuade others to take control of Zheng Yuci, he had no intention to let anyone kill him. Seeing Zheng Yuci seemingly unable to escape Zhang Xian’s control, the player who had previously pulled Zheng Yuci and Xu Huo back to the ground intervened again, but this time pinned Zhang Xian to the ground.

"Boom!" Zhang Xian’s legs were almost entirely buried underground. In this mental battle with Zheng Yuci, neither could move, and thus he could only take a passive beating. The Defense Prop helped him withstand this attack, and as the Eastern District players were preparing to kill, the Nefarious Mask led the Resistance Army to appear.

"The will is indomitable!"

"Kill Zheng Yuci!"

The number of Resistance Army members who suddenly emerged was considerable. However, compared to the lineup on the Eastern District side, they were not enough, even having Level D and Level E players coming in just to make up numbers. It didn’t matter; for both the enemy and us, strength was not the issue at present, nor was death something to fear as long as the goal could be achieved!

Of course, there were also those looking to take advantage of the situation, like making a quick grab at the props on Zheng Yuci and the seriously injured Xu Huo, but Zheng Yuci’s Spiritual World was larger than they imagined. The hexagonal portals and materialized items instantly turned the city center into an indiscriminate killing field once more, most couldn’t even get close for a moment, including those with Psychic Disturbance Instruments and props. However, lacking patience for them, Zheng Yuci pulled anyone he discovered using them nearer and killed them directly.

This immensely relieved Xu Huo’s burden. He used a spiral staircase to send Zhang Xian into his mental portal, creating a relatively safe space with materialized items, then went directly behind Zhang Xian, gripped his arm, and pushed the knife forward!

The expected scene of blood splattering didn’t occur because small hexagonal portals appeared beside the temples of both Zhang Xian and Zheng Yuci—to avoid unforeseen consequences of this peculiar dual control, Zheng Yuci even included Zhang Xian in the rescue.

"Don’t mind me! As long as it’s through my hand, if I die, so does Zheng Yuci!" Zhang Xian immediately said, urging Xu Huo to assist in his suicide.

"Not a problem," Xu Huo hesitated not a moment, placing the knife horizontally in front of Zhang Xian’s neck and said, "Does a push count?"

Whether it counted was unclear, but this immediately angered Zheng Yuci. He randomly opened mental portals, and besides his blades of materialized items flying chaotically in the venue, he personally approached Zhang Xian, using his injured hand to seize his throat, realizing he wasn’t affected, directly snapped his neck.

"Creak! Creak!" Zhang Xian, who just expired a second ago, raised his head the next, with hatred mingled in his laughter, "You can’t die, so I can’t either!"

Zheng Yuci frowned, intending to kill Zhang Xian again, but Xu Huo, who had been transported out, had returned. With the Shadow Personality emerging, he could only retreat. Seizing this opportunity, Zhang Xian faced the short arrow tool he released!

The hand-length short arrow pierced through his heart, bringing forth a gush of blood from both his and Zheng Yuci’s chests. They staggered simultaneously but didn’t collapse. Zhang Xian, blood in his mouth, barely raised his head to look forward, "Consider it a relief for Yuquan City from your disaster..."

Zheng Yuci, who immediately self-encased within an "Operating Room," sealed his chest wound with surgical tools with the aid of the other Zheng Yuci. Operating under these circumstances was impossible of course, but Zheng Yuci, being not only a Super Evolutionary with mental powers, had his wound previously inflicted by the Shadow Personality heal in an unusually short time, though this time, injuring his heart left him without his previous composure.

The golden-glowed "Operating Room" remained unbreachable. After several attempts, Xu Huo gave up, telling the still fighting-to-the-end Zhang Xian: "Your purposes have been fulfilled; there’s no need to forfeit your life."

"This is the limit of ordinary people you wished to see." He observed Zheng Yuci.

Zheng Yuci took out a handkerchief, calmly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and then said: "Indeed worth savoring. For one’s goal, willing to pay any price, such people I respect."

"However, people are different. You and I are different, as are we from them."

"The limits of mediocrity are limited and insignificant to the whole game world."

"Squandering energy on them bears no value—why bother?"

"The White Blood from the White Bear Laboratory has been destroyed; it seems your path to clearance becomes somewhat challenging."

"No worries, there’s another place, with not only abundant White Blood but also my surgical records inside."

He released a spherical communicator, instantly broadcasting the address and location where the White Blood was stored. Then he turned to the cold-faced Xu Huo, saying: "Super Evolutionaries with split personalities like yours aligning with common perceptions of ’normal’ are non-existent; my teacher would be interested, seek us if you have the time."

He handed over a new Wisdom Sphere.

Xu Huo glanced at him expressionlessly.

Zheng Yuci smiled indulgently, "I have no friends, maybe someone led you here to harm you; I’ll go kill him, so you won’t have to trouble yourself finding him."

"Farewell."

The "Operating Room" and Zheng Yuci vanished, along with the rampant hexagonal materialized items across the city, and the overwhelming psychic power dissipated without a trace. Xu Huo’s Spiritual World relaxed and eased.

Confirming the person had indeed left, he hesitated for a moment before grabbing the floating Wisdom Sphere in front of him.
