Chapter 1985: Chapter 1985: Dove
The barrier was breached, and naturally, the players from the Eastern District sward in. However, just as they were about to dismber the two dead people, the masked youth’s body turned directly into a scattered shadow and vanished before it even touched the ground.
Xu Huo’s situation was similar; perhaps due to the influence of light and the obstruction of the defensive barrier, those outside saw a white light pass through his throat, causing him to stagger slightly. They couldn’t clearly see what happened, but once the barrier completely disappeared, he, who was supposed to be dead, vanished without a trace—more thoroughly than the masked youth.
Regardless of whether they were truly dead or if they fled, the players from the Eastern District present didn’t have the strength to pursue them and could only stay behind to clean up the ss.
At this point, the battle had to be concluded due to the strong intervention of the Outer Zone players.
The players from the Eastern District suffered heavy losses, while the Resistance Army, although they lost so people too, were happier than anyone to see the Eastern District players bleed, so they retreated swiftly. At this ti, they left with their tickets, and no one could stop them.
With the protection of props, Xu Huo and the masked youth both instinctively fled towards the Agor Headquarters building, but no players from the Eastern District pursued them. The two occasionally changed directions, sotis briefly eting, but then parted without interfering with each other, until they were sure they were truly safe.
Not far from the Agor Headquarters, Xu Huo and the masked youth stood atop adjacent buildings, separated by no more than a hundred ters. After a mont of silence, the masked youth spoke first, "I didn’t expect you’d benefit from the situation I set up. How about splitting it equally?"
Xu Huo smiled slightly, "Out of respect, I left most of the people for you. It wasn’t my fault your luck was bad. I can’t be accused of hijacking the plan."
"I’m not a petty person," the masked youth waved dismissively, "It’s your skill if you hijacked it. Let’s forget dividing... So why did you co here? Do you have a grudge against the Eastern District players?"
"No grudge, just prefer being an envoy of justice," Xu Huo said earnestly.
The masked youth paused in silence and then said, "Is your mind alright? Maybe you should also see a psychotherapist?"
"Why did you co here?" Xu Huo countered.
"Obviously to blow up the building," the masked youth replied candidly, "If the Eastern District players dare to pursue us, I’ll blow up their lair first."
Xu Huo gave a thumbs up, suddenly asking, "Are you from the Holy Sword Society?"
He drew the shape of a clock face in the air, emphasizing the hands inside which he shaped like a sword.
The masked youth’s deanor imdiately changed, becoming tense as if he were a taut bow ready to unload.
"You guys are searching for White Blood as well, aren’t you." Xu Huo ignored his tension and murderous intent, continuing, "But according to the information I know, White Blood might not be sothing that promotes secondary brain developnt for players. You’ve seen the attitude of the Resistance Army—they don’t even value the potion, indicating it might be fake."
The masked youth began pacing slowly on the rooftop, "So what, it’s normal for the potion to have defects. Agor Corporation dares to bet its future, suggesting that this potion’s benefits outweigh the drawbacks."
"Not necessarily." Xu Huo stared at him, "Agor has a Rank-A player experiencing ntal super evolution inside. Why do you think they perform cranial surgery?"
If the potion really had such good effects, wouldn’t it be enough to just inject or take it directly?
"Are you saying the Eastern District players changed because they had surgery?" The masked youth knew quite a bit, "You believe such nonsense about cutting brains?"
"Whether it’s cutting brains or placing sothing else inside them, having this step indicates White Blood isn’t the most important part. It might be effective, but it depends on whose hands it falls into." Xu Huo stopped beating around the bush, saying directly: "Have you heard of Zheng Yuci?"
The masked youth didn’t respond but was clearly familiar with the na.
"et him, and you’ll understand."
"But be careful, this poses a greater risk than challenging the Eastern District Advanced Players directly."
After saying this, Xu Huo left the rooftop.
By this ti, the attacks happening in various places in the Eastern District had mostly concluded. Xu Huo didn’t know about the other results, but based on the ssages from Qiaoqiao, who hadn’t directly participated, tonight’s events showed that so situations were used by Eastern District players to lure the Resistance Army, while others were the Resistance Army’s voluntary attacks. Everyone could see by now that whether they were Eastern District players or the Resistance Army, both sides understood each other’s tricks well and acted under mutual deception to achieve their goals.
Nonetheless, with the series of continuous attacks over the past few days, the atmosphere in the Eastern District had beco thoroughly tense, and from then until daylight, the streets were practically empty.
During this period, players from the Outer Zone also made efforts to clear the level, attempting to catch Dove or find Dove’s whereabouts. But due to the number of Resistance Army participants using "Dove" as their alias, in the end, they gained nothing.
No choice, since the Resistance Army players could hide directly at the station.
Xu Huo had previously placed the tracking characteristic on the Black Hood, so after dawn, he followed the trait’s guidance and arrived near a school.
The school hadn’t stopped classes, and at this ti students were arriving for lessons one after another. On the bustling street, Xu Huo entered a breakfast shop and found a seat.
There were quite a few people in the breakfast shop, so the seat he chose was already occupied by several people, and across from him was an intellectual-looking man wearing glasses.
"What would you like?" a shop assistant ca to ask.
Xu Huo casually pointed at the man across, "The sa as him."
Those beside them seed to be the man’s colleagues, noticing Xu Huo’s gaze on the man, soone asked, "Hello, do you need sothing?"
"I’m a psychotherapist, and I noticed this friend hasn’t been quite fortunate lately, so I hoped to offer so counsel," Xu Huo said with a smile, "But I definitely can’t compare to the psychotherapist who entered Agor. Does this friend wish for a consultation? It’s free."
Thinking he was fresh in the field, a few approached, expressing willingness for consultation. But since class ti was approaching, they had to leave for lessons, leaving contact information for an appointnt.
In the bustling breakfast shop, after a few teachers left, it seed to be forgotten by others, leaving only Xu Huo and the bespectacled man seated across.
"What do you need with ?" the man asked.
"I’ve already introduced myself before, we also t last night, and today I’ve co specifically to you, what other business could there be," Xu Huo said mildly, "It’s just for clearing the level. The outward leader of the Resistance Army, Dove."
