Pretending To Be A Boss-Chapter 493 - 91: Two Catfish (Part 3)
Tang Suoye only felt as if he had been struck by a bullet, instantly losing his balance and collapsing to the ground.
As Xi He prepared to stomp on Tang Suoye's neck, Akasi finally pulled himself together, calming his mind amidst the chaos and rushed towards Xi He.
But the disparity in strength between the two was too great.
With just a light wave of his hand, Akasi's body was pushed back like duckweed in a storm, by an irresistible current of air.
"Although I'm not very powerful, not even ten thousand beasts below the Purple Rank can trouble me, Akasi. You can be stronger, right? If you can't manage it, then someone else will die because of you."
It was as though he had seen a person's wound and would not stop attacking it.
What Xi He aimed to do was to completely awaken the memories within Akasi's heart.
Akasi indeed froze completely.
"I will give you a chance to turn the tide, but first, you have to deal with my servant."
As soon as Xi He finished speaking, the Mud Man regained its ability to move.
Its body expanded like a net, and while Akasi was concerned for Tang Suoye, he suddenly found that the Mud Man's speed had become much faster than his own.
The still-expanding Mud Man had already covered half of the arena, as if it intended to envelop the entire battlefield.
And suddenly, its speed increased, like an open hand closing into a fist again.

At the moment of closing the net, Akasi could not avoid it; he was enveloped in a layer of mucus.
Hearing, sight, smell—all were blocked by the fluid-like substance.
Breathing became extremely difficult.
This was the Mud Man's killing move, appearing viscous and disgusting, but once enveloped, one would gradually suffocate to death while struggling.
Watching Akasi struggle incessantly, Tang Suoye was once again stepped on by Xi He, and a tremendous fear rose in Zero's heart.
Xi He no longer paid attention to Akasi, but turned to look at Zero.
"The number zero has a special meaning for us, just like Konstant. I gave you the name Zero because you might be the most outstanding test subject. This trial belongs not only to Akasi but also to you, Zero. Your memory is incomplete, but you haven't forgotten some of the most crucial things, have you?"
It was this steady rhythm that often made Zero associate the young man in front of him, wearing a magician's hat, with Tang Xian.
And while Zero revered Tang Xian, fear outweighed respect. For Xi He, his fear was even deeper.
"Do you remember the girl who gave you your name? Zero, aren't you curious why, no matter how many times your memory is fragmented, you always remember her?"
Xi He's smile suddenly turned ferocious, like a demon that knows everyone's dark secrets:
"Is it that you really remember her, or is it because she has died in front of you, time and time again?"
(Feeling rather unwell. I mentioned a 'burst of updates' yesterday, but I was unable to do it. Today I'm really in a terrible state, from yesterday morning until now, except for the short nap I took around two in the afternoon, I was jolted awake and have been unable to focus on writing, my mind is a mess. What's breaking me is that I still don't feel sleepy, just a numbness at the back of my head. At about seven, I'll have to go out to the clinic to get some sleep aid medication. There's not a single lie here, I really can't write in this state, otherwise, I wouldn't want to break my promise during the double ticket event. I hope my dear readers will understand; I'm really sorry for writing so little.)
