Chapter 472 - You're becoming more and more satisfactory to me
Take a look at Chapter 472 of "The Strongest Dandy in the City": Outside the iron-clad factory building, on the Mercedes-Benz van, Hei Xin and Hei Xiongâs eyes... See what happens next!
Outside the iron-clad factory building, on the Mercedes-Benz van, Hei Xin and Hei Xiongâs eyes were firmly fixed on the small screen in front of them.With Hei Xinâs gray mask on, his facial expression was unclear, while Hei Xiongâs mouth was slightly open, his face showing a shock as if he had seen a monster.
After Ye Chenfeng had made it through another room, Hei Xiong had begun to believe that Ye Chenfeng might be able to pass the remaining two rooms.
However, seeing it with his own eyes, the shock was beyond what words could express.
He knew how ferocious these mutated tigers were; had he been thrown into that group of tigers, he surely would have been torn apart.
Hei Xinâs shock was no less than Hei Xiongâs.
Even if he had been the one to enter that group of tigers, the likelihood of surviving was slim.
Watching the blood-covered Ye Chenfeng on the screen, and the bodies of the tigers on the ground, Hei Xin spoke up, âHei Xiong, it looks like we have underestimated Ye Chenfengâs strength time and again.
If Ye Chenfeng could assist us, our power would become even stronger.â
Hei Xiong silently nodded, agreeing with Hei Xinâs words, âBoss, when you said Ye Chenfengâs strength might be above yours, I didnât quite believe it.
Now that Iâve seen Ye Chenfengâs strength for myself, Iâm afraid there arenât many in the world who could be his match.
Do you think he can make it through the last room?â
Hei Xin shook his head, saying, âYe Chenfeng is full of too many uncertainties.
It looks like heâs almost out of power now.
Anyway, we control the third room, so we can cut the power immediately if something goes wrong.
But who knows?
Ye Chenfeng might surprise us again.
Now I am actually looking forward to it.â
In the second room of the iron-clad factory building, Ye Chenfeng did not tend to the bleeding wounds on his body.
After resting for about two minutes, with his Soul Force nearly depleted, he resolutely walked toward the third room.
He thought to himself, âNo matter how powerful the mutated beasts in the third room are, I must try to break through.
If it really becomes impossible, I should have the ability to retreat in one piece.
But by then, I probably wonât have a choice but to join the Devouring Empire.â
Ye Chenfeng bit his lip hard, fresh blood trickling from his lips, filling his mouth with the taste of iron.
Upon reaching the door to the third room, he didnât hesitate to pick up the key hanging on the doorknob and opened the door.
To his surprise, the third room was brightly lit, and there were no mutated beasts to be found.
Ye Chenfeng found this odd.
Logically speaking, the third room should be the most difficult to pass, so why was it so tranquil?
He stepped into the third room where the temperature was exceptionally high, and beams of light of unknown origin shone toward his eyes, causing a dazzling confusion.
The speed of the light aiming at Ye Chenfengâs eyes increased, with colorful rays of every shade.
A wave of dizziness flooded his brain, and a sense of lethargy swept over his entire body, prompting an urge to fall asleep.
His eyes slowly closed, but Ye Chenfeng did not fall asleep.
It was as if he had entered another world, a wondrous feeling indeed.
Images from his past life and this life flashed before Ye Chenfengâs eyes in succession.
As he was immersed in memories, the environment around him changed suddenly, and he found himself on the edge of a vast cliff, feeling a force push him harshly from behind, sending him plummeting down.
The sensation of rapid descent made Ye Chenfeng feel as though he was facing death, his consciousness starting to blur.
Then, Ye Chenfeng seemed to remember something and mumbled to himself, âArenât I playing a game with Hei Xin?
How did I suddenly end up at the edge of a cliff, being pushed off?
No, this must be an illusion, definitely an illusion.â
âI get what the lights in the third room are for nowâto trap me in this illusion.
If my consciousness disappears within the illusion, I might end up a fool once I come to, given that with current technology itâs impossible to create something this advanced.
How did the Devouring Empire manage this?â
Once certain that all he was experiencing was an illusion, Ye Chenfengâs heart became more resolute, and the environment changed again. á´ĘÉŞs á´Ęá´á´á´á´Ę ÉŞs á´á´á´ á´á´á´ ĘĘ É´oá´ el FÉŞre.ná´t
Suddenly, he found himself in the midst of a raging fire with no exit in sight, allowing the merciless flames to consume his body.
Although Ye Chenfeng knew it was all an illusion, the pain from being burned by the fire still felt so real that anyone with less determination would have given up on the will to live.
After the fire, the surroundings changed once again, and Ye Chenfeng suddenly found himself in a frozen tundra.
Having just faced a trial by fire, to now be in such a desolate place truly felt like going from fire to ice.
As Ye Chenfeng had anticipated, he had entered this state of illusion because of those beams of light that initially targeted his eyes.
In fact, the third room wasnât scary at all.
If Ye Chenfengâs Soul Force hadnât been completely drained, he definitely wouldnât have been affected by those lights and entered this state of illusion.
In other words, Ye Chenfeng was not only severely injured but also nearly exhausted, which was why he ended up being affected by the lights.
This was a high-tech method used by the Devouring Empire to test the willpower of its members.
Of course, the members subjected to this test had to be severely injured, or even on their last breath, to make it more perfect.
This wasnât a test of physical ability, and it didnât require strength.
Those lights stimulated a personâs eyes and then altered the frequency of the human brain, causing a person to enter another state of being.
Many members of the Devouring Empire failed to pass this test and ended up waking as fools, not a small number indeed.
Outside the iron-sheet factory, Hei Xiong cradled a laptop in his arms, with green waveforms fluctuating on the screen.
These green waves represented the brain frequencies of Ye Chenfeng.
Should Ye Chenfengâs brain frequencies start to become chaotic, Hei Xiong could use the computer to cut off the factoryâs power at any time, thus allowing Ye Chenfeng to wake from the illusion.
âBoss, itâs been over a minute since Ye Chenfeng entered this state of illusion, right?
On average, members of our Devouring Empire can only last a minute in this illusion.
Even I only lasted one minute and forty seconds when I was in it.â Hei Xiong noted the stable frequency on the computer screen, confident that Ye Chenfengâs brain frequencies hadnât been affected, asides from some initial fluctuations at the beginning, they had been steadily calm ever since.
Hei Xin had already pulled out a golden pocket watch from his pocket.
Watching the second hand tick away, he didnât respond to Hei Xiongâs comment.
Five minutes passed in a flash.
The green waveform on the computer screen remained stable.
Unable to hold back, Hei Xin exclaimed, âHow is this possible?
Five minutes, five minutes have gone by, how can Ye Chenfengâs willpower be so strong?
Iâve never heard of anyone in the entire Devouring Empire lasting five minutes in such an illusion.â
âEh?
Boss, the green wave is starting to fluctuate, I think Ye Chenfeng is almost at his limit,â Hei Xiong observed the green waveform on the computer screen.
âIt seems this time Ye Chenfeng will have to join us whether he wants to or not.
Keep a close watch on the changes in his brain frequency, and be ready to cut the power at any moment,â Hei Xin said with a touch of glee in his voice.
âBeep, beep, beep!â Suddenly a beeping sound came from the laptop speakers, and the green waveform turned into a straight line.
Hei Xiong and Hei Xin urgently turned to look at a small screen beside them, only to see that Ye Chenfeng had woken from the illusion on his own?
How, how, how could this be so inconceivable?
Watching the unharmed Ye Chenfeng on the small screen, Hei Xin, after a moment of silence, suddenly laughed, âYe Chenfeng, youâre increasingly satisfying me.
It seems this time making you join the Devouring Empire is an impossibility.
However, I, Hei Xin, wonât give up.
The deeper I understand you, the more astonished I am by your strength!â
âAlright, Hei Xiong, weâll stop here for tonight, the rest Ye Chenfeng himself can handle.
Letâs go,â Hei Xin said decisively.
âOkay, boss,â replied Hei Xiong, the shock still evident on his face.
