Chapter 1777: Chapter 1777: One of My Juniors
Zheng Shijiu no longer worried about Xu Huo. After descending from high altitude, he went to arrange for personnel evacuation nearby. The governnt players left only a few to evacuate the staff in the governnt building, while the others followed him.
“To avoid interfering with the large transmission equipnt, all players are prohibited from using spatial artifacts! Non-governnt players must retreat two thousand ters imdiately, or be killed without rcy!”
As the Level-One alarm sounded, Zheng Shijiu’s voice was transmitted through a prop to every corner of the square. Before he could say more, a massive rocky mountain fell onto the space transmission gate!
The matter passing through the spatial passage wasn’t as smooth as imagined. Although the spatial passage was much larger than the rocky mountain, the mountain was moved using the power of props and carried huge impact force. Combined with its own weight, it caused a massive shockwave when it hit the spatial gate, the powerful energy storm swept across the city skies, instantly disabling all flying devices, and the ard robots on the ground were also disrupted, leading to a halt and lag!
This was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people, and those fleeing with the robots looked back at the space transmission gate emitting dazzling light and the rock mountain stuck in the doorway, feeling as if a natural disaster had struck!
After the energy storm passed, even worse situations followed imdiately, with several tal pillars supporting the spatial gate breaking!
Although other pillars were still maintaining the gate, the light erging from it began to flicker weakly, and the disappearance speed of the rocky mountain seed to slow down!
Fortunately, the rocky mountain wasn’t large compared to the entire district governnt, and the nearby residential buildings have been evacuated in advance. Now, the governnt needs to consider whether the impact of a transmission failure might affect residents further away. Realizing a problem in the construction craftsmanship of these tal pillars, Zheng Shijiu returned to the top of the transmission gate, drew a willow-like slender sword, and sliced the rock into dozens of uneven pieces, letting them tumble into the gate.
The rocky mountain was rapidly disappearing.
This crisis was successfully overco. Xu Huo, after observing for a mont, planned to leave, yet the district governnt had no ti for him, but there were still people keeping track of him.
The players employed by the mining group had been waiting nearby!
It seed like Zheng Shijiu had intervened midway to save the day, but Xu Huo didn’t know whether the negotiations with other personnel included the super props on him, which made exiting Zone 019 very risky. Helpless, he had no choice but to reenter the spiritual world and return to the governnt building.
However, the players approaching him were also very skilled in combat. One person, from a distance, made a cupping gesture with both hands, and a smoke ring-like annular object appeared around him, with a diater of about three ters, pinning him in the center, seemingly forming an invisible spatial barrier completely isolating him from the outside world!
The power released by the spirit disturbance instrunt made Xu Huo’s head split with pain, and while he was suffering from tinnitus and dizziness, six players had already surrounded him, and six streams of gas were erging from the smoke ring, quickly extending toward them!
Tiny beads of sweat appeared on Xu Huo’s skin.
Just a mont of thought and he realized that this prop cage was drawing moisture from his body!
As he controlled “Everything Wants to Slice” to break the smoke ring barrier from the outside, a hand appeared within the barrier and penetrated his raised spatial barrier to grip his arm!
Then ca a second hand, and a third, each grabbing one of his limbs, attempting to pin him in the air.
The tiny beads of sweat turned into large sweat droplets. Xu Huo exhaled deeply, gathered all the spatial rays within the smoke ring barrier, and ford four sharp blades to slash at these four hands!
Two hands were severed at the fingers, two were protected by props and were unhard, but as one hand and foot were released, Xu Huo had room to move. He swung the Black Blade, cutting off the hand holding his left arm along with its defensive prop, and at the sa ti, a large pair of scissors flew in from afar, sweeping away two players controlling the smoke ring before stabbing into the smoke ring barrier with a backhand…
The smoke ring barrier seed to beco fragile with two fewer manipulators and was directly decapitated by the large scissors, and Xu Huo’s head almost flew off with it.
Glancing at the golden-eyed player standing on the distant building, Xu Huo turned and continued toward the district governnt, but just then, another group of players approached from that side, looking aggressive as if they weren’t there to resolve the mining group’s backstab.
With predators ahead and behind, Xu Huo realized it might be the ti to leave, but just as he was about to make his exit, a figure suddenly appeared in his line of sight.
The person was wearing a very old trench coat, its edges washed white. He appeared thin and weak, unobtrusively standing in the air, not attracting much attention even with his appearance.
Xu Huo still rembered this person. He had t him once in Flower City when he was searching for the entrance to an underground vein, and this trench coat man appeared in his room, telling him that the entrance to the vein wasn’t just a tiny portal as he had thought, leading him to find the spiritual space of the underground vein later on.
Unexpectedly, they t again here.
“You’re still alive.” The trench coat man seed quite happy to see him, waving at him from afar.
His casual greeting, of course, alerted the other players, so imdiately several of them turned their heads, but the trench coat man’s gaze did not land on them. As he moved toward Xu Huo, he lightly pointed at the four players rushing toward him, and in the next second, the four were motionlessly frozen in the air, then turned to face their companions as they rotated left or right, up or down.
The remaining players were stunned, their expressions turning grave.
From the level of body evolution, the trench coat man was undoubtedly a Rank-A player, but to control four players of the sa level just by raising his hand ant he was on an entirely different level of power!
A Rank-C player like Xu Huo could contend with the district governnt using Rank A Props and Super Evolution until now, and among Rank-A players, there might indeed exist exceptionally powerful anomalies.
The players in Zone 019 exchanged a glance, cautiously distancing themselves from the trench coat man, but just before they could start taking action, Zheng Shijiu appeared, accompanied by twenty Rank-A players.
Yet these people did not initiate an encirclent but stood behind Zheng Shijiu, confrontational towards the trench coat man along with Zheng Shijiu.
“What brings you to Zone 019?” Zheng Shijiu asked solemnly.
The players who had previously besieged Xu Huo realized the seriousness of the problem and silently retreated to the side, while the trench coat man stood in front of Xu Huo, holding the four players. “The person you hurt is a junior of mine. I don’t know what villainous act he’s done to warrant so many Rank-A players making a move, but I can’t stand by while the big bully the small.”
