They misled the captain and also the players.
If going by what Baiye of 507 said, then the [Players] could at best only serve as nodes to summon other existences.
"So the Heart Stealer sent out a distress call not in hopes of soone rescuing it, but rather to use whoever is drawn to it as bait to attract other existences?" Li Changhe thought.
As expected, these guys were no good. If they managed to harm or even defeat the captain.
They would cease protection, allowing the unit serving as the node to perish.
The other side doesn’t need human stowaways to beco believers. Instead, they use humans as nodes to summon new stowaways.
Therefore, every single player here can beco a node. This would put everyone in grave danger.
The fate of the [Players] can result in three possibilities.
The first one, the plan fails, the summoned existence can’t defeat the captain either, or it isn’t willing to fight the captain, it takes one look and leaves.
The probability is high for this scenario, after all this is the Dream Ark which houses a few divine creatures. As per Li Changhe’s line of thinking, if soone lured him into a harmful place, he would first kill them before hastily retreating.
So, whether it’s humans like Li Changhe or abnormalities like the Heart Stealer, both will beco passengers here.
The second one, the plan succeeds. But the player serving as the node will be abandoned. Once the Heart Stealer and Baiye successfully escape the Dream Cruise, can they be expected to aid the player to escape from the summoned existence?
The probability for this is extrely low. Nobody would stake their hopes of survival on whether a divine creature might show rcy.
The third one, the plan succeeds, and the one serving as the node manages to survive. Now that’s uncertain, who knows what they might summon. It’s easy to invite god but hard to send him away.
"However, if I expand from this line of thinking. I...am actually a node myself." Li Changhe glanced at his arm, where the Shell Leaf Sutra Box was attached.
On the other side, the woman’s punches got faster, while Corpse Face’s roar grew more intense.
It seed that Heart Stealer and Baiye’s strategies were really effective against her.
"The shackles that have been binding us for centuries will finally fall off," Baiye sentintally said, his child-like voice echoing in the hall: "So..."
"Hold on." Li Changhe rudely interrupted Baiye’s sentintal mont by slapping the railing with his Mo Blade.
"...Human, you don’t get to speak here," Baiye retorted nonchalantly: "All you need to do is, quietly wait for the arrival of those existences."
anwhile, the indescribable mumbled voices of the Heart Stealer started to echo in everyone’s minds. They were summoning sothing.
They didn’t hold humans in contempt but definitely didn’t take them seriously either.
The huge gap in strength made them care less of what they think about re ants beneath their feet.
Humans, to them, are rely tools to escape from their predicant. Who would care about tools that are available everywhere?
"At this point, do you still think that the right to take the initiative is in your hands?" Li Changhe could feel several horrifying looks focused on him. rely by gaze, he felt terrified. But he didn’t back down.
At tis like this, he shouldn’t draw attention to himself.
But if this continued, the players wouldn’t end well.
Since it’s like that, he should take initiative.
Regardless of whether the captain or the abnormality won, it doesn’t matter.
No matter who won, they still need to face the [Great Wall] from the outside world. What Li Changhe needed was the fluctuations produced during their battle to be detected by the Great Wall.
And due to the ti-span problem, the duration should be as long as possible.
As for what happens after... Chen Guang has supposedly killed divine creatures before.
And he claid that he wasn’t the strongest in his division, there were two stronger than him. Given his character, the exact number should be more than double.
Now, it has been ten minutes since Corpse Face left the room, and the captain has appeared for about two minutes as well. He wonders if the people outside has noticed anything.
As for the thod...
Li Changhe silently removed the Shell Leaf Sutra Box attached to his left arm. This was an extraordinary creation that he got from Lao Fangzhang on Jiulong Mountain, to prevent the curse of the Tingdaros Hound from manifesting on him.
Which resulted in the Shell Leaf Sutra Box becoming the piece of equipnt Li Changhe had worn for the longest ti, even longer than Old Lead’s.
He could use it as a shield during fights. The only problem was that it was troubleso to wear all the ti, he couldn’t let the sutra box stray more than two ters away even when he was sleeping or showering. To the unaware, it would seem as if Li Changhe had an obsessive compulsion to the sutra box.
This also beca Li Changhe’s final trump card.
Of course, because the consequences could be severe.
Li Changhe didn’t dare to use it. After all, he no longer had the physique of a Buddhist follower, and he was not imbued with the banishing ability of the Immovable Glass Body of Ten Thousand Dharma to exorcise Evil. Without mounting Dog Brother, wouldn’t he just get bitten and be done with in one mouthful?
But now, he doesn’t have to worry about this at all.
He and the girl among his [Friends] quickly analyzed the various possibilities after summoning that existence.
Li Changhe couldn’t help but smile, he loudly declared, "Baiye, Heart Stealer. Lay down your needlework."
Blue flas circled him and the sound of a ringing bell overpowered all the noises and mumbled voices: "I am your only hope for escape. Use everything you’ve got, every trick in your book, and make sure I don’t suffer the slightest injury."
In Room 507, Baiye fell silent.
Its body was like an undeveloped human fetus, with bright red eyes, a Crown of Thorns on its head, and multiple pairs of white wings on its back.
It appeared pure and holy.
It didn’t take offense to Li Changhe’s impertinence, and it didn’t understand what he ant by ’needlework.’ After all, it didn’t possess the required parts.
It looked into a corner.
"Heart Stealer, what’s that? What did you summon?" Baiye’s crimson eyes narrowed, it felt a strange creature entering the Dream Cruise in an unimaginable manner.
This wasn’t part of their plan, the newcor was even stranger.
"No, that’s not the existence I summoned... I didn’t even get to finish reciting the incantation." Heart Stealer was able to clearly sense the arrival of patches of Black Fog in the corner of their surroundings, weird spaces within the black fog that it couldn’t understand either.
"This human is a node for sothing. That seems like... nevermind, this is better. And what we need to do now is..."
"Protect this human until we defeat the captain," Baiye let out an unpleasant sound: "A fine human, a fine initiative. We’ve been threatened by a human."
On the other side, Li Changhe scanned the surroundings, familiar Black Fog appeared in the corners around him.
"Long ti no see, I miss you dearly." Li Changhe opened his arms wide as if he was welcoming his guests from afar.
"Dog Brother, I’m here!"
The next second, countless pairs of red eyes opened in the Black Fog.
The Tingdaros Hound, has forcefully trespassed into the Dream Cruise!
