The rippling water waves rapidly spread out, and through them, he saw the densely overlapping scenes.
The surrounding space showed clear signs of overlapping, and he imdiately grabbed onto Senluo beside him.
Even so, the distance between the two quickly widened, but then rapidly closed again—strong spatial distortion drew their bodies close together.
In the next instant, they were swept into the overlapping scenes caused by the water waves.
"... What the hell?" One Proxy Agent stared blankly at the scene; he wielded spatial powers, so he sensed the anomaly the mont the water waves appeared.
Countless spaces overlapped densely together, each piece switching at ultra-high speed, aning they would be relocated the instant they escaped from Dusk Cathedral.
He hurriedly shared his findings with the other Proxy Agents, who imdiately adopted a more serious expression: "So, are we facing segntation and ambush?"
"That’s right," the Proxy Agent with spatial powers nodded, "I can try to slow down the switching speed of those space blocks, but I can’t break them."
In his perception, the number of those space blocks seed endless; in this world where Dusk issued an Extermination Order, perhaps the entire Great World had been segnted into countless space blocks.
These space blocks densely overlapped, akin to innurable steel plates piled on a single plane.
What appears as a thin layer actually contained countless steel plates, even if soone could punch through tens of ters, hundreds of ters of steel plates.
Could they still penetrate through countless layers of steel plates?
Moreover, this involves spatial segntation and overlapping; his delay only affects the contacted space block parts.
"Save your strength; there’s no point in doing that," another Proxy Agent said, "Wait for news from Chang Qing."
He refused to believe that Zheng Yichen would perish after being swept away; that man fought out of the Great World. If soone like him died so easily here, it would an the Great World was quite ordinary indeed.
He picked up a long spear and placed the Weapon outside the Dusk’s entrance, awaiting information from Zheng Yichen.
Not long after, a figure appeared, and Zheng Yichen grinned slightly, speaking with so helplessness: "Er, my situation here is a bit dire, let share my findings first."
Zheng Yichen narrated his discoveries through the Faith impartation crystal.
He observed the battle scars around him; the scene here was the sa as what he saw before using the drone.
But there was no Dusk Territory here, only a massive group of strange ’soldiers,’ fully ard like chanical specters.
The Weapons they wield looked simple, yet they possessed extrely high destructive power, and the bullets they fired seed like sci-fi antimatter bullets, causing high-intensity explosions on impact.
Zheng Yichen also had similar bullets, but his were made using Hell’s Power of Death and Life Power, whereas these bullets had sothing else mixed in.
The destructive power was enormous; even now, Zheng Yichen was reluctant to face such Weapons head-on.
The Weapons were mighty, but those specter-like soldiers weren’t strong enough.
Their armor wasn’t weak, but faced with the crushing force of Phenonon, these spectral soldiers lost their combat capability instantly.
Zheng Yichen couldn’t sense any Life Force on them; their state of existence was very odd, starting to dissipate on their own after being killed, leaving no traces behind.
Once they were eliminated, the space slightly fluctuated, and then everything returned to normal; the dissipated spectral soldiers reappeared, fearlessly renewing their attack.
In just a few minutes, the space he was in reset over a dozen tis.
"The diater of this area is approximately twelve kiloters, with a total of seventeen thousand spectral soldiers; in the eleven refresh cycles, their numbers didn’t change at all..."
Zheng Yichen shared the situation here, completely conveying his findings, most importantly noting that so phenona seem twisted or imbued with a kind of ’absoluteness.’
Like those bullets, although the explosion damage barely affected Zheng Yichen, getting hit by the bullet straight on did indeed injure him!
Even though his body’s durability couldn’t ignore the damage from such powerful bullets, once he constructed his defense, it was more than enough to block a single bullet.
However, even after blocking it, he still got injured, and the injury wasn’t caused by the bullet, but rather appeared naturally.
This was an anomaly... or an anomalous phenonon specifically affecting soone like him.
Being killed ans dying; though it sounds trivial, under normal killing standards, it holds no significance for Zheng Yichen.
The Ark of Life and Life Archive he possessed rendered traditional killing thods completely ineffective, unless in worlds with lower environntal conditions.
This world’s environnt isn’t low, not as good as the Great World, but higher than the two Devouring World encountered recently, unexpectedly high.
The strength of the world aside, higher strength here is advantageous to him, but the distortion of certain phenona is too problematic.
In other worlds, the standard that when a person is killed they die doesn’t apply to him, but here, due to certain phenona being distorted, this standard can affect him.
This was his discovery after being hit and injured when testing the lethality of those bullets.
It’s a kind of ’distortion’ where getting hit by a bullet causes injury; it might also be a kind of ’absolute effect’ imparted.
The ’phenonon’ of ’getting hit by a bullet causes injury or death’ took effect; regardless of your nature, if you get hit, you will be injured or die, even if the bullet cannot break your defense.
As for why explosions don’t harm him, it’s probably that this distortion-induced absoluteness is not comprehensive.
Currently, there’s too little information, more investigation is required.
"Alright, my refresh here has added two more rounds, we’ll talk later," Zheng Yichen said, closing the communication, then glanced at Senluo.
"It’s impossible, my power influence range is limited to this area," Senluo told Zheng Yichen.
She had noticed this upon arriving here, but given her inherently high lower limit, reducing her upper limit did not impact her combat capability.
It simply ant the area of effect during combat beca smaller, not that she’s inferior compared to those Proxy Agents.
"As long as combat is possible, there seems to be sothing amiss over there, let’s go check it out."
With that, Zheng Yichen swung his blade, and the incoming bullets were smashed by blood-colored saber Qi, while the attacking ’specters’ were completely disassembled, turning into scattered bones on the ground.
Among these bones were black crystalline entities, which Zheng Yichen had attempted to collect, but they could not be preserved. Lilith’s analysis revealed that these crystals were ’shadows’.
They weren’t re projections, but shadows more advanced than projections!
The spectral soldiers here seed akin to quantum specters.
"Dead a long ti ago," Senluo remarked upon looking at the corpse here, which was an adult male skeleton, approximately thirty years old, with so degree of armant.
These details required no analysis from Zheng Yichen; a scan with the Illusory Eye revealed them instantly.
"No big issue." Zheng Yichen glanced into the distance, where the yet-unvanquished ’specters’ were approaching; their exoskeletons granted them excellent mobility.
At close range, they used normal movent thods, but when exceeding a certain distance from the attack target, their movent was more akin to flickering; however, this was not spatial power.
He rubbed his hands, Zheng Yichen gathered a ball of red Life Force, directly pressing it into the skull of the skeleton, and fla-like glossy flow rapidly spread throughout the skeleton.
Under the influence of willpower interference on reality, flesh swiftly grew from the bones.
The lack of a soul didn’t matter, Zheng Yichen’s willpower interference forcibly ’altered’ the skeleton’s ’death’.
This form of alteration imposed significant distortion on the target, causing them to be rejected like an unregistered entity.
"Ugh... Ahhhh—" a piercing scream rang out; the man clad in a damaged combat suit clutched his head, his body displaying nurous cut marks.
These marks appeared and disappeared rapidly, puzzling Zheng Yichen.
There shouldn’t be such a situation; although willpower interference altered the skeleton’s ’death’, without sufficient Life Force, the target still wouldn’t ’resurrect’.
Yet because the target ’lived’, they would collect enough life sources from the environnt, though this collection was akin to theft, followed by debt repaynt.
This debt repaynt couldn’t be avoided unless the resurrected being could engage in a tug-of-war with the whole world, preventing the world itself from reclaiming those life sources.
Zheng Yichen didn’t stint on this portion of Life Force; he also didn’t plan to let the target repay the debt, as the dead didn’t owe the world itself anything, so the current reaction posed significant issues.
The reaction seed as if the distortion on the target was magnified thousands of tis, and it wasn’t rely unfortunate, but a direct personal attack.
"...Really troubleso." Zheng Yichen curled his lips, extracted the brain of the resurrected individual, and placed it inside an internal space.
Before the brain fell victim to the distortion destruction elevated to the level of personal attack, Lilith extracted all information from within.
The resurrected individual’s body rapidly crumbled to ashes, leaving no skeleton behind this ti.
"A backlash magnitude in the thousands, indicating that the environnt we currently occupy overlaps at least a thousand tis." Zheng Yichen observed the arriving ’specters’.
He swung the fishing rod, and a dark green cloud appeared in the sky, unleashing Hellfire down.
After the specters were vanquished, the Hellfire too distant from him vanished with the spatial reset, being transferred elsewhere.
