Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

Chapter 61 Containment
Li Yelai then personally killed the master of supernatural tales and obtained the access card to the art museum.

The people trapped inside the art museum were finally able to escape.

Overjoyed at being out of danger, they wept tears of gratitude and repeatedly thanked Li Yelai and the others.

To outsiders, Li Yelai was as domineering as a king, swiftly killing the security captain.

Especially in the last scene, after he was swung and slammed to the ground, he swung the security captain back and sent him flying as well.

A tall, slender figure swung a bulky, enormous creature through the air.

The visual impact sent a jolt through many people.

But even seasoned operators could sense how risky Li Yelai's plan had been.

By leveraging the power of the security captain, they used his strength against him, thus deflecting his force in the opposite direction.

Shi Zhanlong Taitou directly threw the security captain back, which put a great strain on Li Yelai's physical body.

As a result, Li Yelai had some difficulty walking and had to be careful.

He was struggling because he was exhausted and injured.

The reason for his caution is that his bad luck is not over yet; he has to be careful with every step, lest the tiles on the ground break and he fall flat on his face. Or he might worry that the chandelier above his head might fall.

It's a good thing it wasn't raining outside, otherwise I might have been struck by lightning if I went out.
Seeing this, Cheese stepped forward to support Li Yelai, letting him put his arm around her shoulder to steady him.

It activated a psionic barrier, blocking several rocks that suddenly fell.

"Don't take such risks when you're alone," Cheese whispered. "Otherwise, even if you don't die at the hands of the enemy, you'll be killed by misfortune."

After thinking it over, Li Yelai nodded in agreement; that was indeed the case.

This time, Li Yelai almost exhausted all his strength dealing with the security captain and was even injured.

If at this point you encounter a powerful enemy that you're guaranteed to face, or run into a runaway dump truck.

Without the help of his teammates, Li Yelai would be in great danger.

It seems that we must reserve some forces for future operations, just in case.

The other staff members stood around Li Yelai.

They are taking precautions against potential formidable adversaries.

Li Yelai felt a warmth in his heart: "Thank you, everyone."

"Let's not talk about this among comrades," the handlers said with a smile and a wave of their hands. They gave Li Yelai, who was being supported by cheese, a rather strange look. Suppressing their gossipy thoughts, they continued to be vigilant about their surroundings.

Then, Li Yelai was helped out of the gate. He was shocked by what he saw.

He did know that there were strange tales all over the college, and that many of his colleagues who had infiltrated the university were entangled with these strange and bizarre things.

I just didn't expect it to be so intense.

Gunfire erupted everywhere, and numerous armored vehicles sped along the roads. All sorts of strange creatures were being rapidly eliminated.

This is truly a reassuring scene.

The group did not evacuate immediately, but rested on the lawn outside the art museum. They cared for the wounded and tortured Huang Du.

Although Huang Du is shameless and despicable, he is one of the masterminds behind the scenes and knows the rules and methods to solve all the ghost stories.

Huang Du lived up to expectations, and despite his bruised and swollen face, he told everything without hesitation.

When this message was relayed back to the branch, the actions of each team became more efficient.

Some groups even used this intelligence to crack the ghost stories without bloodshed.

However, some bad news also emerged.

There are three masterminds behind this ghost story.

Huang Du and his two roommates, the eldest of whom has been firmly under the control of the authorities.

It is said that he devised a plan to rescue those rich second- and third-generation heirs, earning the gratitude of many.

However, one of the processors was disguised as a student.

Upon receiving the message, the officer apprehended him without hesitation.

The leader still doesn't know why he was discovered, even though he handled it perfectly and didn't reveal any flaws.

But the third brother, Ye Xun, was not so easy to deal with.

A team of investigators did find Ye Xun in the boys' dormitory, but he was a Ye Xun who had been corrupted by a powerful force.

Ye Xun is not a psychic, but a student with excellent academic performance who was admitted to university through a special admission program.

Whether in the eyes of his teachers or classmates, he was a very rational and intelligent person.

After unexpectedly obtaining the Ghost Stories Notebook, he did not pursue wealth and women like the boss and Huang Du.

Instead, they were determined to understand the truth of the world.

For an ordinary person, this power was simply too wonderful for him.

So, after discovering the existence of psychics through ghost stories, he became even more excited and devoted himself to researching them, wanting to gradually unveil the mysteries of the world.

Perhaps it is this thirst for knowledge.

It brought him trouble when he opened the Ghost Stories Notebook this time.

It's unclear whether it was the power of the notebook or the gaze of some being within the virtual realm.

His well of souls suddenly opened, and he became a psionicist.

And it gained incredible power.

Surprisingly, by relying on the rules of the Ghost Stories Notebook, they managed to escape the group's encirclement. They even significantly increased the difficulty of some of the ghost stories.

Now, no one knows where they are hiding.

In the shadow of a school building, Ye Xun, dressed in a school uniform, was moving quickly forward.

He felt incredibly happy; some all-knowing and great being had truly answered his questions and bestowed upon him a powerful blessing!
This made him a psionicist, and even amplified his thought speed several times over.

The feeling was amazing. He mastered techniques such as psionic barriers and aerial stepping after only a few attempts.

Begin to truly explore the secrets of this world.

His powerful computing ability enabled him to calculate the rules and paths of all the ghost stories and figure out the safest escape route.

He will flee the academy, flee the great city. To fulfill his insatiable thirst for knowledge!
Through His power and the blessing of His great being, these are no longer mere fantasies!
"Psionicists, the Void Realm, the Forbidden Zone of Calamity, Forbidden Objects, Chaos..." Ye Xun was bursting with excitement; these were all the kinds of knowledge he longed to master. Now, as long as he left the academy, he could freely roam the ocean of knowledge!
So he calmed himself down and quietly made his way through one ghost story area after another. Using the rules of the ghost stories, he evaded his pursuers.

He then changed direction several times, heading towards the path he had calculated.

Just minutes after he left, a team of handlers appeared near the teaching building.

In the group, someone bent down to examine the barely noticeable footprints.

That was an old acquaintance of Li Yelai, a detective from the logistics team.

After a moment of hesitation, he said, “The other party has been gone for about eight minutes. Unlike us, he was hardly delayed by the ghost story.”

"He's the owner of the Ghost Stories Notebook, he knows everything about ghost stories. He's nothing special." The team leader shook his head and said, "We can't continue tracking him by traces. He's obviously crossed several ghost story areas. He's just trying to buy us time. Sand, please do some divination."

The team leader spoke with a strange sadness in his last words.

And Shali was Li Yelai's teammate who had worked with him in the Black Prison.

After using the forbidden artifact, the Ghostly Nuo Mask, she gained powerful divination abilities, but also lost all memories after the age of eighteen. She lost memories of her lover, her teammates, and everything she had experienced. The official records can only fill in the gaps in her memory as much as possible.

And she once again chose to join the official team and reclaimed the codename "Sand Grain".

As a result, despite being a mature woman, she possessed a youthful quality that didn't match her appearance.

This caused the group leader immense pain, because he was the lover of the sand grain.

However, the sand grain no longer remembers him, having forgotten every little detail between them.

This made him hesitant to get too close, and he could only make suggestions in the gentlest possible tone. He didn't know if they could ever go back to how they were before.

After the sand grains nodded timidly, they began to perform divination.

Then, the grain of sand pointed in a distant direction and said, "He went that way!"

The team leader looked at his teammate beside him, who thought for a moment and then said, "It's in the direction of the art museum."

"An art museum? ...Then there's nothing for us to do." The team leader paused for a moment, then smiled wryly, "That old bastard!"

Meanwhile, with the arrival of the other three teams of handlers, Li Yelai was completely safe.

He is currently receiving treatment along with his other colleagues.

"Congratulations on your successful second awakening." Li Yelai leaned against the wall, chatting with the heavy cavalryman who was having his wounds bandaged.

A few days ago, the heavy cavalry successfully broke through to the second awakening.

Among the newcomers of the same period, he is the second newcomer handler to reach the second awakening level, after Li Yelai.

"Hmm," the heavy cavalryman nodded slightly. "I was thinking that since we're both at the second awakening stage, we'd have a friendly spar. But now I don't need to bother. I'm no match for you."

Judging from the combat power that Li Yelai just displayed, the heavy cavalry felt that they had little hope of winning.

The opponent's physique alone was stronger than his own, who was a True Martial Path practitioner.

"Just lucky," Li Ye replied. But he saw the suspicious looks on everyone's faces, as if to say, "You dare say you just got lucky?"

Li Yelai smacked his lips and could only change his tune, saying, "Alright, it was a blessing in disguise. I was strengthened by the bloodlust for too long."

Just then, Li Yelai suddenly heard a noise coming from not far away.

A boy in a school uniform carrying a backpack suddenly rushed out from the green belt of the art museum.

Is this the student who escaped the strange situation alone? So strong!
Li Yelai was thinking to himself when he heard Huang Du's incredulous voice.

"Third brother?"

The third one? Ye Xun!
Li Yelai subconsciously grabbed the Crimson Dragon Halberd from the side.

The one who rushed out of the green belt was Ye Xun, the holder of the Strange Tales Notes.

He calculated the safest escape route.

They traveled through various ghost story areas and arrived here.

However, just as he was about to cross the art museum, he saw a group of wounded people.

He wasn't surprised; Huang Du was his accomplice, so it wasn't unusual that he could solve the museum's strange tales.

So, without hesitation, he immediately stepped out of the green belt.

The plan is to blend in with the crowd first through Huang Du, and then find an opportunity to leave.

However, just seconds after he stepped out of the green belt, he suddenly heard Huang Du's voice.

He stared in astonishment at Huang Du among the wounded. Wait... how did this guy get injured? Didn't he know how to break the mystery?

Huang Du, his face bruised and swollen, was being bandaged. He stared at Ye Xun in astonishment.

Immediately afterward, Ye Xun also noticed Li Yelai, who had picked up a weapon.

In an instant, Ye Xun's gaze sharpened.

He realized that Huang Du, that bastard, had betrayed him! He had exposed his identity!

And the guy who picked up the weapon was a psionicist! Official psionicists seem to operate in small groups, which means there are other psionicists nearby?
However, this guy was also injured.

Without any hesitation, Ye Xun immediately launched an attack!
The two were too close, and he had to strike first, otherwise he would be surrounded by other psionicists who were coming to the scene if he was held back!

Even if all else fails, I can take those wounded soldiers hostage!

Therefore, Ye Xun activated his abilities and immediately launched an attack on Li Yelai.

His eyes shone with purple light, his spiritual gaze revealing a mirrored vision!

Once this ability is activated, the vision of anyone looking directly at you will be distorted. Everything your eyes see will be reversed.

It's also a very useful skill; the faster the opponent's instinctive reaction, the more dangerous it becomes.

If you attack from the left, your opponent will instinctively raise their right hand to defend.

However, in reality, due to the opponent's reversed perspective, the true self launched the attack from the right.

He can turn his ability on or off at any time, making it difficult for his opponent to distinguish between the real and the fake. If he fails to block even once, he will win!
If the opponent makes even one mistake, it will be fatal!
The only problem is that this ability can only work on one person at a time.

But now there's only one person on the other side.

However, in the next second.

Among the wounded, a girl with bandages wrapped around her hand suddenly stood up, holding a sledgehammer as thick as a bowl.

A man who was bandaging the wounds of a wounded soldier suddenly drew a sword.

A short-haired girl who was resting with her eyes closed next to Li Yelai suddenly opened her eyes and looked indifferently at Ye Xun.

"[Listen to me] Cardiac arrest!"

Shocked, Ye Xun felt a sharp pain in his chest and his vision went black.

A second later, when he recovered from the effect and his vision returned.

He then found himself pinned to the ground, surrounded by more than a dozen figures.

Ye Xun was stunned, staring at everything in disbelief.

What happened? How come there are so many psionicists here?
"The Great Thousand Transformations..." Ye Xun was terrified and immediately cried out for help to a certain being.

‘click’

However, before he could finish speaking, his jaw dislocated. At the same time, he was struck on the back of the head and immediately lost consciousness.

The handlers won't give him any chance to fight back.

"As expected, waiting by your side always brings prey to your doorstep." The middle-aged man holding the sword laughed. "Well done, Night General!"

This is Benlei, the person in charge of this operation.

In order to ensure that he would inevitably encounter a formidable enemy, he dispatched four teams, totaling nearly twenty agents, to Li Yelai's side.

In retrospect, the plan was a great success!

"I'll take that as a compliment," Li Yelai said helplessly, shrugging.

With Ye Xun captured, the Ghost Stories Notebook he was carrying was successfully contained!
