Chapter 2005: Chapter 2005: Eastern District Bids Farewell to Guests
Zheng Yuci had left, but the projector he left behind hadn’t disappeared. So players from the Outer Zone were going to search for the new "White Blood" based on the address on it. Another round of battles was about to begin. The Eastern District and the Resistance Army each sent so people to intercept, while the rest stayed at the original battlefield, preparing for the final death battle.
Unable to kill Zheng Yuci, Zhang Xian fell into despair, kneeling on the ground exhausted, holding his wound and saying, "He managed to escape like that..."
"Does the Resistance Army really hate him that much?" Xu Huo remained standing, using a prop to clear the Wisdom Sphere, and said, "Shouldn’t you hate Agor more?"
The Nefarious Mask had already left the battlefield and joined his comrades. He answered on behalf of Zhang Xian, "Wildfires never completely die; they grow anew with the spring wind. As long as he’s not dead, he could co back at any ti."
"Actually, once his experints were exposed, your goal was achieved." Xu Huo said calmly, "An unstable environnt is no longer suitable for Zheng Yuci as a base for experints. You don’t need to kill him; he would leave on his own."
Zheng Yuci and Doctor Zhang appeared to choose two different paths to cultivate players, but in reality, they were the sa. Remaining unnoticed and undisturbed was beneficial for them to conduct their experints in the long term, as their main focus was on their work, unwilling to deal with sporadic interruptions.
Moreover, instability also represents danger.
The Nefarious Mask and Zhang Xian were skeptical of his words, but it was certain that Zheng Yuci had been injured before he left, aning he definitely wouldn’t reappear for so ti. They considered their initial plan complete, although a brutal fight with the Resistance Army was still ahead, it wasn’t worth risking all their remaining forces. Therefore, the Nefarious Mask signaled so of their people to retreat and preserve their Fire.
Xu Huo had put away the Wisdom Sphere by this ti and glanced at the eager players from Zone 035 nearby, then asked Zhang Xian and his companion, "What’s the situation with the White Bear Laboratory?"
They hesitated for a mont, but eventually told him the truth: the White Bear Laboratory had been thoroughly bombed, with heavy casualties on all sides, but it was unclear who ended up with the "White Blood." In any case, the Resistance Army didn’t get it.
"This might be Zheng Yuci creating a diversion; there may not be White Blood in the other laboratory." The Nefarious Mask asked, "Is your mission to clear the stage for White Blood?"
"There is White Blood, along with capturing Dove." Xu Huo redirected his gaze to the two of them, "Dove, strategist."
Indeed, these two were the leaders of the Resistance Army, Dove, and the highly esteed strategist within the organization.
Seeing that he suddenly pointed a sword at them, Dove beca wary imdiately, discreetly taking out a Teleportation Prop from behind, but unfortunately, the Spatial Teleportation Device remained ineffective, and given their current state, entering the station wouldn’t lead to much better outcos. They could only remain in stalemate for the mont.
Just then, a player watching from the sidelines attempted a sneak attack. Xu Huo didn’t flinch, and an invisible Defensive Barrier blocked the attack. In the instant the attacker was pulled forward, still unseen as to how he acted, both the sneak-attacking player and his Defensive Barrier were shredded within two seconds, turning into large patches of blood splattering on the ground.
In the fight against Zheng Yuci, since both were Super Evolutionary with ntal Powers, the props hardly had any effect during the high-speed duel. Hence, it was mostly about supporting with Defense Props, attacking props were used, but neither could severely injure the other with them, making it appear as though both Zheng Yuci and Xu Huo excelled in spiritual power.
Now that Zheng Yuci had retreated, Xu Huo was likewise wounded. Despite this, with the use of spiritual Interference Props, spiritual power, although lethal, wasn’t an unbeatable weapon, and coupled with Defense Props was sufficient... It seed that killing Xu Huo wasn’t impossible, especially with the two Resistance Army leaders present. Killing one wasn’t a loss, killing three would be worth a fortune, but...
After quickly resolving the attacker, Xu Huo scanned the surrounding players with cold eyes, sneering, "Do you think I only use spiritual power to kill?"
At his words, about twenty players were transported to him in an instant through a ntal Portal. The "Everything Wants to Slice" combined with materialized thin blades from spiritual power, and the Spatial Ray Blade—together they ford an impenetrable barrier within fifty ters around him, instantly killing five Advanced Players!
Yes, Psyche Force Materialization and Spatial Ray Blade may not necessarily break through prop defensive barriers, but "Everything Wants to Slice" certainly can. Blocking one or two attacks is doable; the barrier can form once or twice. By the third or fourth attempt, there are bound to be vulnerabilities; and gaps naturally allow spiritual power and Spatial Power to manifest.
With several people dead, the remaining players, though using props to block lethal attacks, suffered so injury. Seeing Xu Huo not intending to let things slide, one player forcefully broke through the encirclent and ran without looking back.
It wasn’t just one or two hoping to flee. Amidst their lack of will to fight, Xu Huo killed three more before he retracted his Spiritual World, and stopped.
Dove and the strategist had already fled amidst the chaos. He turned his gaze to the Eastern District players standing in the distance, smiling slightly, raising a hand in greeting, "Teacher Zhao, back again?"
Teacher Zhao’s expression stiffened, jumping from the rooftop to the ground, watching him from a certain distance, then presented a tal box, "Here’s what you need to clear the stage."
"White Blood?" Xu Huo raised an eyebrow, "Is Teacher Zhao planning to send
away?"
Teacher Zhao glanced around at the streets and buildings almost entirely overrun by Mutant Plants with a complex expression, "The Eastern District has suffered enough; it’s ti to cut our losses."
He had killed him once before; since he survived, it was evident he had many life-saving props. To kill such a person without sustaining unknown numbers of casualties wasn’t worth it. Sending him away amicably was the least costly option for the Eastern District.
"No problem." Xu Huo used a Spatial Ray to take the box from a three-ter distance, splitting it in two, and then retrieved the white potion inside. However, even when holding the potion, the notification to clear the stage did not appear. He frowned, looking at Teacher Zhao, "This isn’t the White Potion."
"Impossible!" Teacher Zhao blurted out, "This was taken from the inventory at Headquarters, it can’t possibly be fake!"
His expression didn’t seem deceitful, and Xu Huo wasn’t planning to discern the truth either. As the potion slipped and shattered from his hand, he had already disappeared from everyone’s sight.
"Hurry to the Ocean Evolution Base!" Teacher Zhao imdiately commanded the surrounding Eastern District players.
