I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature-Chapter 1486 - 1052: Main Control Area

Consuming ammunition will cause the weapon to become lighter, and the limited bullets cannot be squandered. A firearm without bullets is just a blunt weapon?

That idea isn’t bad, but if the weapon comes with a bayonet, it can still be used. Without a bayonet, just throw it away when the bullets run out.

Soon, this control room was cleared out, leaving only the Red Shadow Warriors.

Justice stopped this Proxy Agent from continuing to act, directly marking him. He could attempt to eliminate the marked Red Shadow Warriors, leaving the unmarked ones.

Zheng Yichen can instantly kill them when needed.

This is also a rational use of resources. Later, in the control rooms they went to, there were no staff carrying weapons; these staff basically fought with fists.

Some even prepared explosives in advance, detonating them the moment they appeared.

They wanted to use this to destroy them.

But the explosions mostly just hit illusions.

The methods used by the enemy became increasingly crazy, and the countermeasures used by Zheng Yichen also enriched.

He also saw new information on the communication platform; the external war had calmed down, and the remaining Proxy Agents had reached the control room here, however, this place was like an ’Interdimensional Killing Array’.

There were too many parts, and each control room was the same, the only difference being the people inside.

With the intelligence from the communication platform, they could also deal with such problems, except for the encountered Red Shadow Warriors.

According to current statistics, 233 Red Shadow Warriors appeared. Originally, these Red Shadow Warriors were meant to deal with them, but after the other Proxy Agents came, the Scarlet Shadows were further distributed.

As the control rooms were swiftly removed, the enemy’s resistance grew stronger, the Proxy Agents gathered, and the Scarlet Shadows also gathered.

The Proxy Agent who was skilled at weapon enhancement had already thrown away his weapon, firearms without ammunition were really useless.

Unity Firearms could eliminate those Scarlet Shadows, but after being killed, they could resurrect, and so this kind of elimination was not very meaningful.

However, the significance was great when these weapons eliminated them.

Zheng Yichen glanced around at the newly arrived Proxy Agents; this wasn’t quite according to his plan, which originally involved invincibility.

Yet it unexpectedly turned out like this; one can only say no Proxy Agent is simple, including the ones who died before, those who died were either unlucky or targeted too harshly.

"Seems pretty smooth." A Proxy Agent commented, lighting a cigarette from his pocket as he watched more Proxy Agents arrive.

Although the threat of the Scarlet Shadows remained, Zheng Yichen brought out new interference devices as their numbers increased, further weakening the Scarlet Shadows.

Moreover, not long ago those Scarlet Shadows had been wiped out in one wave.

As they grew more numerous, the Scarlet Shadows were eliminated faster, and the Catastrophe Curse accumulated by Zheng Yichen was running out of use.

So when the Red Shadow Warriors regrouped, he directly cleared them out.

He didn’t get any new Unity items, which left Zheng Yichen quite regretful, but he didn’t force it. The effect of Unity items was too strong, and Zheng Yichen treated them as a top prize.

Getting one was already a win, if not, it’s fine.

Having already gotten the baseline was enough, more would be better, but not getting new ones was acceptable.

At this stage, they were engaged in a war of attrition.

The remaining control rooms were strictly defended, even blocking Lü Kong’s space invasion. Not long ago, he could open holes using skill, the principle being that there was a connection between control rooms, which he amplified through gaps.

But not many control rooms were left, the connection remained, but there were fewer gaps to exploit, making it harder for him to drill holes.

Additionally, the regrouping of Red Shadow Warriors severely interfered with his speed of making holes.

Thus, it was now in a stage of attrition.

In terms of consumption, they were at a disadvantage.

For no other reason, they couldn’t recover from injuries, while the Red Shadow Warriors could be reborn continuously.

They couldn’t compete in this war of attrition; the longer it dragged on, the more unfavorable it was for them.

Zheng Yichen took out the Unity item he had obtained before, intending to use it as enhancement material.

Adding new attributes to his fishing rod that was transformed into a God’s Core, which would enable him to acquire corresponding attributes himself.

"You all watch those Scarlet Shadows for me. I’m going to handle the Crossing the World situation."

"...Can you handle it?" Lü Kong asked Zheng Yichen with some surprise.

The spatial intensity here was on a completely different level than what they encountered before; previously it was stone, manageable to drill through, now it’s directly steel.

Forcing him to find ways to seep through the cracks.

"Trust me," Zheng Yichen said, touching the air in front of him.

He didn’t have Lü Kong’s sense of space, but he had another sense, a perception of the World Barrier, which allowed Zheng Yichen to discover how special the defenses here were.

By folding the World Barrier for isolation-type defenses, this wasn’t normal spatial protection, rendering Lü Kong’s abilities ineffective.

The reason they could still have some effect was that these defenses arose from the folding of the World Barrier, and gaps existed between the folded protections. If it were a seamless whole, Lü Kong would really be at a loss.

Zheng Yichen’s current task was to separate the folded segments.

His hands twisted slightly in the air, as veins protruded from his body. The newly acquired Unity tool allowed him to temporarily withstand the pressure from the space barrier.

However, even with five layers of Unity, it wasn’t enough to fully resist it, making Zheng Yichen feel his bones almost cracking.

The enhancement of protection here was imaginable; without it, Zheng Yichen’s hands could have been crushed!

Taking a deep breath, as he noticed a tiny crack in the World Barrier, Zheng Yichen instantly increased the Unity tool to eight layers.

He added three new parallel entities to overlap, but the consumption was more than seven times that of five layers!

When merging parallel entities using the Unity tool, the more entities you have, the less advantageous it becomes.

Starting from five layers, doubling on that base, but the consumption exceeded thirty times!

Adding one more layer means seventy times the consumption.

The further you go, the more unworthy it becomes.

However, it was more than enough to attempt breaking limits.

Especially in a world with a high limit that’s hard to reach, overlapped Unity becomes very useful, whereas in a low-limit environment, its effect is somewhat inferior to simple overlaps.

After all, once the environmental limit is reached, the power enhanced by overlapped Unity can’t completely surpass it, unless you have a power like Zheng Yichen’s Alien Phenomenon manifestation.

When encountering an attack limit blockade, no matter how high the attack multiplier is set, it’s useless.

But overlapping is different; it can be seen as an alternative attack multiplier, except this multiplier involves overlapping the same attack multiple times—limiting single attack damage, but not multi-segmental attack limits.

The world’s high and low environments require adaptation; techniques effective in a low environment may still work in a high environment but will seem less useful. Techniques from a high environment may be entirely useless in a low environment.

The foundation of this world is pretty good; under the intensity of eight-layer Unity, Zheng Yichen finally felt the ’limit.’ The moment he touched this limit, he unhesitatingly utilized Alien Phenomenon manifestation.

It directly increased the environmental upper limit near him by percentage. A cracking sound was heard, and Lü Kong widened his eyes, sensing the spatial crack to be suddenly clear.

Without hesitation, Lü Kong acted immediately, and the Proxy Agent here vanished from the current control room in an instant.

In the new control room, the workers were filled with astonishment, and the Proxy Agents saw many familiar faces here.

They had already dealt with quite a lot of the same-faced workers in other control rooms.

"Ho-how is this possible? How did you get in??"

"It seems this is the true main control room." Looking at the ’dark red sun’ ’outside the window.’

A Proxy Agent took a step forward; the control room filled with a cold breeze. Some workers felt their souls trembling, as if about to be stripped away.

When the dark red sun outside lit up, their state stabilized, while the acting Proxy Agent let out a dull hum, and his body exploded on the spot.

Blood splattered over several Proxy Agents nearby, yet the exploded Proxy Agent wasn’t dead; his soul persisted, but his body was blown up due to backlash.

Zheng Yichen reached out to catch a drop of blood; after being analyzed by the Ark of Life, it restructured a new body, but this body recurred the explosive scene just as it appeared.

The power of Parallel Differentiation manifested more strongly here.

"Alright, I can’t do it."

The other life-type Proxy Agents, who had planned to use the Blood Drip Rebirth method, immediately abandoned further thoughts after seeing this; Zheng Yichen’s ability to reconstruct a body was way beyond theirs.

Yet, even this didn’t work; their intervention would only result in more patches of paint here.

Only the soul entity of the Proxy Agent looked somber, resisting the urge to forcibly possess those workers, knowing doing so would likely lead to instant death.

The backlash earlier was caused by reinforced workers.

"BOSS, I’ve confirmed this is the main control region of the Unifying engine. I need the main body to invade here."

"Alright, I’ll create an opportunity for you." Zheng Yichen stared at the dark red sun outside the window; this control room was indeed different from others.

Other control rooms had pitch-black windows, but here, they were illuminated.

During the stalemate, the Scarlet Shadows left in the previous control room caught up again, and the quick-reacting Proxy Agents blasted... pried open the control room’s entrance first.

Outside the control room, a normal passage was visible, unlike the pitch-black exterior of other control rooms.

The Proxy Agents near the entrance ran out immediately, avoiding being surrounded by the Scarlet Shadows in the confined, hard-to-break environment.

The recently self-detonating Proxy Agent taught them a lesson; Lü Kong could attempt to expand the space, and another Proxy Agent could set up an Illusion Array, but these usually effective methods might not work well here.

The most prudent way was to expand the combat area normally.

The Scarlet Shadows appearing here didn’t pursue the fleeing Proxy Agents; they focused their attacks on Zheng Yichen.

Targeting the biggest threat first!

Outside the window, the light radiating from the dark red Unifying engine shone on the Scarlet Shadows, rendering the interference device provided by Lilith ineffective.

"This is going to hurt."
