Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

Chapter 10 Have you ever seen such a shot that falls from the sky?
Years later, they faced a calamity powerful enough to destroy the entire city.

Everyone present will remember that evening.

The last rays of the setting sun were eventually obscured by the high walls of the giant city, and the shadows eroded the remaining sunlight, thus plunging the entire city into night.

In the dim light and shadow, they faced a monster that seemed like their natural enemy.

Everyone was so overcome by instinctive fear that they dared not move or make a sound.

She could only watch helplessly as the monster approached the girl step by step, opening its gaping maw as if to devour her alive.

But in that desperate situation, the man unleashed a terrifying battle intent that startled even the monsters. It was as if a thousand troops had descended upon the scene.

They forcibly diverted the monster's attention away from the girl.

His terrifying double pupils looked down at the monster, and he uttered words that pierced the heart.

At that moment, no one knew what he was thinking; only the monster's roar echoed throughout the building!
Then the scarlet broadsword transformed into a streak of light and shadow, rushing straight towards the man!

That person was naturally Li Yelai, just like everyone else present.

When faced with the monster that was his natural enemy, he also felt fear, and his whole body stiffened.

Those are monsters summoned through a special means of virtual reality. They are even more dangerous than the fellow awakened sufferers and are the natural enemies of life in the physical world.

But compared to others, Li Yelai's situation was much better.

Having previously thought the mission was over, Li Yelai had arrived at the room door in order to leave the nauseating murder scene.

He only needed to take one more step to leave the room.

He had a greater chance of escaping than the others.

But at that time, he fell into a kind of hesitation.

He knew very well that once he left this place, it would be too.

If another psionicist is missing, everyone here will probably be killed by this monster.

At least, the cheese that's already been slapped in the face by the monster can't escape this fate.

Actually, Li Yelai had only known Cheese for two days and wasn't very familiar with this beautiful senior.

Moreover, we only met these people today.

run!

In this situation, even if I run away, no one will blame me. I can survive.
But when he thought of the girl he couldn't save yesterday, and Cheese and the others who had just been bragging to him, Li Yelai fell silent again.

Is he really going to run away like this? Abandon everything and flee in panic?

Should we allow this inhuman monster to cause even greater casualties in the city before reinforcements arrive?
Fight! The people are not without the strength to fight! They are merely intimidated by an instinctive fear. If they can suppress this fear and coordinate their actions, they can definitely defeat the monster!

But I might die.

The monster was too fast and armed with psionic energy. Wasn't Starfire the first to have his arm severed?
But can I really survive the first attack?

Can they really hold out until reinforcements arrive and everyone reacts?

The two choices left Li Yelai in a brief dilemma.

But in the next instant, he decisively wiped it on his face!
Unleash your power, Overlord's Face!

Li Yelai chuckled inwardly. What did he have to hesitate about?
Don't I still have one trump card up my sleeve?

The adventures to come and the possible deaths will all be paid for by 'Shadow' Young Master!

That's right, Li Yelai has already decided that if he is faced with death, he will make another deal with the shadow!

At the cost of a single chain, the lives of everyone here, and many more, were saved!

In a daze, Li Yelai heard laughter.

It's unclear whether it's praise or mockery.

But Li Yelai didn't care at all, watching the monster rush towards him in an instant.

Having let go of all fear, Li Yelai laughed as he drew his sword and swung his axe!

The collision of the scarlet broadsword and the steel axe sparked dazzling sparks.

Li Yelai retreated several steps, but managed to receive the first blow!

He felt a sharp pain in the web of his right hand, but without hesitation, he slashed out with the steel knife in his left hand!

Meet the monster's second slash!

He had already seen several black lines on the monster's body; those were the monster's weak points!
If you strike along the black line even once, the monster will be either dead or crippled!

However, there weren't many black lines on his psionic weapon, so it seems the idea of ​​cutting off his weapon with one blow will have to be put on hold for now.

It's nothing!
Li Yelai let out a deafening roar, rapidly wielding his steel axe and steel knife.

It felt like being back on the battlefield.

He transformed into the Hegemon-King of Western Chu, wielding a precious sword, and surrounded and killed the hundreds of soldiers who had surrounded him!
His combat skills are improving rapidly!
Use a light knife to lure the enemy, then use a heavy axe to attack.

Steel axe for defense, steel knife for attack.

Ambidextrous fighting, both hands open simultaneously!

In less than three seconds, their weapons clashed fiercely more than a dozen times.

Blades flashed and sparks flew.

Meanwhile, some strange force is also influencing the course of the battle.

The teetering ceiling light suddenly crashed down on Li Yelai. Li Yelai happened to step back, while the monster lunged forward, only to be struck squarely by the light. Arcs of electricity and sparks flickered on its psionic barrier.

The cabinet that had just been hit was teetering on the brink of collapse. As Li Yelai passed by, it tipped over, but Li Yelai, having anticipated this, stepped back again, allowing the monster to take the brunt of the wardrobe's fall.

This is Li Yelai's curse, or rather, his bad luck.

After activating the ability, everything around will move towards some kind of misfortune.

This led to a series of coincidental accidents.

If this were on the road, a vehicle that suddenly went out of control would probably be coming towards you very soon.

At this moment, however, these 'accidents' became Li Ye's means of dealing with the monsters!
He was very confident in his luck (E), and what might happen in normal times had become an absolute certainty.

He only needs to detect it in advance and dodge, while the monster chasing him won't react that way.

So, as the monster was surprised and cleaved the falling wardrobe in two, Li Yelai seized the opportunity, using his axe to catch the long sword and then slashing out with his steel blade.

The 'Tear' monster's ear was sliced ​​off, and he was injured!

The monster also experienced fear and anger for the first time since its birth.

He actually abandoned the long sword that he couldn't pull out, and instead grabbed Li Yelai's left hand that was holding the sword with both hands, opened his big mouth full of sharp teeth, and bit down on Li Yelai's neck.

A thought struck Li Yelai. He pressed down on the long sword with the axe in his right hand and swung it fiercely at the monster's face, only to have it bitten off.

Even the axe itself was twisted and cracked, a terrifying biting force!
Being bitten is certain death!
But Li Yelai calmed down, decisively discarding the axe. With a flick of his foot, he grabbed the longsword that the monster had thrown at him. It was a long-handled broadsword, which could be wielded with both hands. But once Li Yelai held it, it unleashed an unimaginable power of intimidation.

At that moment, terror was evident in the monster's eyes.

Because when Li Yelai gripped the scarlet broadsword with one hand, the murderous aura emanating from him became even more terrifying.

It was as if it would pierce through his body at any moment.

The monster's intuition was correct. Li Yelai was now using the Overlord Mask, while the Overlord of Western Chu was always best known for long-handled weapons like halberds and spears.

With a single-handed eighteen-hit combo combined with the ability to exploit weaknesses with double pupils, who can stand against him?

From beginning to end, Li Ye only wanted to steal the monster's weapon.

A crimson streak pierced the monster's chest, causing it to let out a terrified roar and decisively release its grip and retreat.

He moved with incredible speed, dodging what should have been a fatal blow. Yet, his shoulder was still ripped open. Foul-smelling blood flowed out.

However, at that very moment, a voice rang out.

"[Listen to me] Cardiac arrest!"

The monster's body swayed, and its pupils blurred.

The next instant, a large hammer was shoved directly into his mouth and twisted.

A tremendous force erupted directly from his mouth, cracking and snapping. Most of his sharp teeth were shattered!

It was Cheese and Heavy Cavalry who, after Li Yelai made his move, finally suppressed their instinctive fear and offered him a helping hand!
"Are you alright?" The heavy cavalryman stood beside Li Yelai, wielding twin hammers. Her face was pale, but her gaze was fixed intently on the monster.

Cheese, carrying a dagger and swallowing a large amount of candy, came up behind Li Yelai and the heavy cavalry.

"Thank you," Cheese said softly.

"It's nothing." Li Yelai stroked the crimson longsword left behind by the monster, a smile appearing on his face. "Let's take care of it together!"

The monster, which had been knocked several meters away, instantly regained its senses and charged straight at the corpses of the animal-masked people.

He grabbed the corpse of a man wearing a horse-head mask and bit down on it. He crushed the skull, and blood poured into his mouth.

In the next instant, his wounds began to heal, and his fangs grew out one by one. Even his body became stronger, transforming him from a youth into a middle-aged man.

He was originally a creature from the void summoned by a special ritual. As long as he devours enough flesh and blood, his body will grow rapidly and become even stronger!

The next second, a flame suddenly appeared on the monster's face, instantly turning into a sea of ​​fire that set the corpses around him ablaze.

It's a spark!
At that moment, he was clutching his severed arm, his eyes bloodshot. He then unleashed his power with a fierce roar: "Eat, eat, eat! Go ahead and eat some more if you dare!"

His sister, Shadow Stream, and the Detective stood before him, their faces deathly pale, staring intently at the monster.

The remaining psionicists have joined the battle!
The monster immediately dropped the corpse and leaped out of the flames, its eyes warily scanning the group.

Li Yelai, however, strode closer, brandishing his scarlet broadsword, which felt excellent in his hand!

It's time to show this thing what it means to do 18 kicks with one hand!

After entering the battle, Li Yelai's combat skills improved rapidly.

The echoes of Xiang Yu's final battle enabled him to quickly master skills he was not yet proficient in.

If he continues fighting, he might be able to quickly master the true Eighteen One-Handed Strike Techniques.

As Li Ye approached, the now even more robust monster began to retreat.

The fear instilled in him by Li Yelai grew stronger, and his instincts were driving him to flee immediately.

So, when Li Yelai and the heavy cavalry closed to within ten meters of him, he suddenly sprang up and rammed his head into the nearest window.

They actually wanted to break through the window to escape!
Caught off guard, the psionicists immediately launched an attack.

Spark directly controls the flames to block the window.

"Listen to me! Cardiac arrest!" Cheese shouted instantly, but the monster only swayed before rushing into the flames, smashing the window, and escaping the room.

When everyone rushed to the window, they only saw him being engulfed in flames, accelerating repeatedly in mid-air, like a shooting star hurtling towards the apartment building across the street.

On the street, many pedestrians saw this scene and looked up in astonishment at the flames in mid-air.

"Damn it!" Cheese thought in horror, worried that if this monster were to break into the crowd.

God knows how many victims there will be, and with its ability to devour flesh and blood, this monster will grow to an unimaginable size!

Normally, the handlers would simply chase after them and kill them.

However, the psionicists present were all novices and had not yet mastered the psionic technique of stepping in the air.

On the scene, only Cheese could catch up.

But what good would it do for her to chase after him alone?
"Damn it, I should have taught them aerial stepping first!"

Just as Cheese jumped out the window, ready to give chase.

But then they saw Li Yelai standing on the windowsill. He took a deep breath and jumped down!

"What's troubling you?" Cheese's face turned pale with fright. She had only taught Li Ye the technique of aerial stepping, and they hadn't even trained him yet! How could he jump like that? Even a highly skilled psychic would fall to his death!

However, the next second, her face froze.

On the other side, downstairs in the apartment building, the instructor was in a sorry state, even the longsword in his hand was broken.

However, he still managed to plunge the broken sword into the goat-headed man's chest, and the sword twisted, snapping the goat-headed man's cervical vertebrae. This completely crippled the goat-headed man's fighting ability.

"You're really strong, but what can you change? The area up there is probably already a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. I might as well give this body to you." The goat-headed man laughed.

This made the instructor's heart sink; the ram-headed man in front of him was merely a physical body controlled by the other party.

He himself was still in some corner, coldly observing everything.

Both are divine paths. The instructor can control flying swords remotely, but the goat-headed man can control prepared corpses. It would be too disadvantageous to fight without finding the real body.

Moreover, the atmosphere above is very strange; Cheese and the others are still in danger. They can't let this guy delay them any longer.

The only good news is that reinforcements are almost here. Their figures, moving through the air, can already be seen in the distance.

However, the goat-headed man's laughter abruptly stopped a second later. His voice was filled with disbelief: "How is this possible?"

After the instructor kicked him in the neck and broke it, he suddenly raised his head.

But what they saw was a bizarre scene.

A fiery meteor shot out from the apartment.

Behind him, someone holding a large knife took seven steps in mid-air.

He caught up with the fiery meteor, and then brought down his greatsword!

The next second, the meteor fell and crashed heavily onto a black SUV not far from the instructor.

The terrifying monster with red skin and sharp teeth let out an inhuman roar and struggled to climb off the vehicle.

However, a voice rang out in mid-air.

"Have you ever seen such a shot that seems to fall from the sky?"

In an instant, a figure descended from the sky, and a scarlet longsword stabbed down, piercing through the monster's head along with the off-road vehicle!

The monster's roar abruptly stopped.

What the instructors and the support staff saw was...

It was a figure emerging from the flames, standing on the corpse of a monster, holding a scarlet longsword, his terrifying double pupils calmly surveying the completely wrecked black SUV.

I couldn't help but gasp.

"Holy crap, it's Cheese's new truck!"
