Chapter 483 - Cake
Chapter 563 of "Player Reload" begins with: Taking a deep breath, Gray Rain sprouted extra arms on both sides of his shoulders,... See the full story!
Taking a deep breath, Gray Rain sprouted extra arms on both sides of his shoulders, grasping the hammer handle firmly.
Step forward, twist the body, strike diagonally.
The hammer face at the front end of the Power Hammer struck the back of the hooded figure who didnât have time to turn around. In the next instant, the metal bar at the back end of the hammer head contracted heavily, a surging impact permeated into the hooded figureâs spine, transmitted along the muscles and bones to the whole body,
Bang!
The chest of the hooded figure exploded directly, spraying out a mist of blood. The bones around him broke like crispy noodles, the raised arm fell uncontrollably.
Li Chengâs eyes suddenly became clear, he threw out dozens of punches in the blink of an eye, then released .
The mutilated body of the hooded figure exploded, fragmented flesh disintegrated in the air, turning to flying ash, leaving only the ragged hoodie floating in the air.
Resolved...
Li Cheng withdrew his fist, panting heavily, Gray Rain helped him up with concern, "Are you okay?"
"Iâm fine." Li Cheng rubbed the sore temple, a needle-like piercing pain lingered in his brain, wishing he could take off his skull and pour in liquid nitrogen.
"If youâre fine, have some preserved plum."
Gray Rain patted his back, and when fetching inhalable painkillers from the three-dimensional warehouse, really brought out a pack of preserved plums.
Li Chengâs eyelids twitched, "Jeez, you really got it, how many years has this advertisement been outdated."
"Itâs from 2013, so this pack of preserved plums is also from 2013. It should still be within the shelf life."
Gray Rain justified confidently, Taobao, Idle Fish, and Pinduoduo are too versatile, even eighty-year-old WWII canned food, hundred-year-old zombie tuna, or sixteen-hundred-year-old Shu Han sourdough can be bought. She often collects them.
If you go to the slum black market to purchase, even dried salted fish hung by Hemudu people are available, exactly seven thousand years old, compared to it, Emperor Huangdi was just a rookie.
"Iâm afraid Iâll die immediately after eating."
Li Cheng rolled his eyes, stood up shakily, slowly exhaled a turbid breath.
At this moment, including Red Spider and Nikola, other players were still alive, Binary Tree and Zhangsun Yao lay on the ground unconscious, while Blood Lion Roar sat in the driverâs cabin of the Infinite Justice Mecha, also in a coma.
What was intriguing was that the Stone Pillar Forest area didnât turn into a sea of blood, and Binary Tree indeed had a Diving Bell for isolating deep-sea pressure in hand.
Li Cheng furrowed his brows involuntarily, without a sea of blood, Blood Lion Roar sat in the driverâs cabin, and Binary Tree had a Diving Bell,
These three points were enough to prove that players collectively fell into an illusion realm after encountering the hooded figure within seconds.
The truth was indeed so, Li Cheng removed the sports cameras from everyone, compared the first-person video footage.
He discovered that after the hooded figure killed other players instantly, it directly came towards him - possibly realizing Li Cheng possessed an item of epic quality capable of guarding against fear illusions.
Fortunately, he used his last trace of clear divine wisdom to hand the Vast Sea Soul-locking Bell to Gray Rain, narrowly counter-killing.
âItâs inevitable to get wet by the riverside often...â
Li Chengâs expression was serious, the secret realm itself restricted Level 30 or higher players from entering, and the strength of Black-clothed Woman H and hooded figure F was equivalent to Level 33, and they were bosses battling consecutively, allowing no respite.
Even Miyazaki Hidetaka couldnât design such a disgusting level, ultimately it wasnât a killing field generated script task, completely disregarding balance.
"Are they... still alive?" Gray Rain hesitantly pointed at Binary Tree and others lying unconscious on the ground.
"Not very optimistic."
Li Cheng stepped forward and checked with the Information Integration Glasses.
Binary Tree and others had normal body temperature, heartbeat, their brains were intact, completely lost their ability to perceive themselves and the external world, while their brainwaves were exceptionally active.
The symptoms were between losing consciousness like a vegetative state and being awake but unable to move like locked-in syndrome.
In other words, they were still immersed in the illusion realm after the hooded figure died.
Li Cheng shook the Vast Sea Soul-locking Bell beside Binary Tree and othersâ heads, their abnormal brainwave index slightly decreased, but it wasnât enough for them to regain consciousness.
"Let it be for now."
He found several stretchers from the three-dimensional warehouse, placed the other players on stretchers, tied them together with ropes, then attached a and hung the Vast Sea Soul-locking Bell beside the stretcher.
The bell could only enhance resistance to all illusions, not break illusions. Binary Tree and others needed to rely on themselves to escape fear to wake up.
After handling the companions, Li Cheng turned to Gray Rain, "Tell me, how did you escape the illusion realm."
Mentioning this, Gray Rain immediately perked up, put his hands on his hips, and with a "I really stunned myself with awesomeness" expression, proudly recounted the three illusion experiences.
"... Itâs almost like this, in the end, my subconscious realized the problem, telling me that Iâm smarter and stronger than I thought, and then made a gorgeous appearance, saving the hero."
This time it was Gray Rain carrying, Li Cheng helplessly smiled, rubbed her steel wool hair, praised, "Aaah baby, youâre a sweet, soft, fragrant, crispy, smooth, tender little white glove hey smart Hajimi little cake."
"Hehe."
Gray Rain giggled foolishly, suddenly remembered something, "By the way, what did you see in the illusion realm?"
"Well... Iâll tell you later."
Li Cheng didnât want to talk much, changing the topic, "Your subconscious in the fear illusion mentioned, âEverything that happened in Red Star Orphanage is real, Cai Anjie is Epiogyiâ, is that right?"
"Yes." Gray Rain nodded, again took out a laptop from the three-dimensional warehouse, along with Whale Songâs offline AI video generation software.
Inserted the data cable into her forehead, by importing her consciousness thoughts in extremely detailed keywords into the AI video software, quickly generated scenes that matched her memory.
Specifically recalling scenes from Red Star Orphanage.
Li Cheng finished watching the fear illusion footage, rubbed his chin. He took Gray Rain back the way they came, found White Horse Tombstone and Black-clothed Womanâs corpse.
The death scene of both matched Gray Rainâs second fear illusion experience.
This indirectly proved the authenticity of the Side of Truthâs words in the illusion realmâthe hooded figureâs fear illusion was a joint compilation of the subjectâs brain and the Power of Laws.
He silently gathered White Horse Tombstoneâs remains, his brain spinning at a high speed.
All clues woven together, was just one puzzle piece away from completely unraveling the riddle.
That is, why did Black-clothed Woman and other anomalous existences not directly kill the players but harbor certain intentions, guiding them indirectly.
Intentionally deliberate to the degree of Keqing.
"Cough cough!"
Suddenly, Zhangsun Yao lying on the floating stretcher coughed violently, eyes widened, body instinctively broke free from the restraint, fell to the ground.
She staggered up, held paper between her index and middle fingers, when she saw the surrounding environment, her aggressive murky gaze gradually became clear.
Li Cheng nodded, "Not bad, youâre the most promising one among the folks this time."
"Nowâs not the time for jokes." Zhangsun Yao helplessly smiled, with her experience, quickly judged that Li Cheng and Gray Rain had already defeated the hooded figure.
A mere Level 21 counter-killing a Level 33 level anomaly, even if the latter invested all talent points in Illusion Technique, it was still too spectacular.
Indeed, not luring this kid into the guild with sweet-talking back then was really like crabs touching electric wiresâhelmet-numbing.
"Can you still walk?"
Li Cheng casually tossed a bottle of painkillers over, "Letâs go, itâs time to clear the secret realm."
