Chapter 976-999

Chapter 976: A Bizarre Sliver of Hope?

Every Party Ace meiant club had co down from the sky and hit them on the back of the head!

Or like a new recruit that had just joined the battlefield but was instantly stabbed with a bloody bayonet!

They were not prepared for this this They did not expect this

More importantly, the little bit of morale they had recovered with difficulty after their loss in the previous world was destroyed again! They had picked theround Even Zi and Reef, ere usually strong-willed, showed signs of defeat

The only one as not disheartened was Sheyan, not because he had a strong heart or was exceedingly calht now! His face looked like it was on fire The er

Why? Because of Sanzi!

His little brother had just started following hihtmare real the htmare world, they had already failed the mission and would face a 20 penalty in all base attributes It was race to his status as a big brother

The scenery along the road became blurry lines due to the speed of the bike The wind roared into Sheyan's ears The nearest strand of black smoke came from a common Californian hotel in front The botto lot After the customers parked their car, they could just swipe their credit cards and go straight to their room upstairs to rest The whole process was very convenient

In Sheyan's vision, there were originally two red dots representing the two i Reese had completely disappeared; he had apparently turned into a cold corpse by now Sarah Connor's red dot, though still present, was very weak, like a candle in the wind that could go out at any moment

Next, like a chain reaction, a series of notifications was sent to hi: The missions related to the heroine, Sarah Connor, will be deleted due to her death… ]

[ Warning: The subsequent development of the world will be dramatically altered due to the death of the heroine, Sarah Connor… ]

[ Warning: The heroine, Sarah Connor is dead and will no longer appear in the records of all the contestants experiencing this world in the future ]

Sheyan instantly discovered soet any notification about his hts, since the onists were both dead, his main mission should have failed ilanced at the mission hint of the main mission – make sure that history is not substantially rewritten – and a strange idea suddenly flashed in his mind

'Could there be a sliver of hope still? That's it, I knohy! I know the reason! Although it's dangerous and outrageous, but there's still a sliver of hope for this mission That ined that there's a loophole due to ti!'

'It's difficult for other people to exploit this loophole, but it's possible for lint flashed in Sheyan's narrowed eyes once he saw the light He quickly made an enquiry, then revved his bike's speed to the limit and accelerated forward He lifted the front of the bike and drove up a car in front at high speed Using the car as a stepping stone, he sh theof a room into the second floor of the hotel

At the same time, Sheyan also issued some orders quickly and orderly in the party coo to this address and find someone He's just an ordinary person, so do whatever you have to do to make him obey you… ”

“Reef, co in Get ready to cover me There should be a T-800 and a lot of contestants inside We e Harley h speed, the thick front wheel of the lasses it earing instantly broke into pieces

Under such a violent iger back It's back crashed into a wall, which collapsed like a fragile wooden partition

Sheyan had a clear view of the situation in the rooh the whole place was in a mess, it could still be clearly seen that the enemies had simultaneously launched a fierce attack froht side The situation was akin to a move in wushu which striked the opponent's ears with both fists The defender could not defend against it

Sarah Connor lay on the ground with a frightened look on her face No traces of blood could be seen on her body Her corpse was completely intact because she suffered only one fatal attack

A very brutal attack

Her neck isted by roughly 270 degrees Her face, which was supposed to face forward, was now facing diagonally backwards…

What exactly was this strong, heroic wo the crime scene where Sarah Connor died, Sheyan confirement was correct! With a hard push of his feet, the Harley's exhaust pipe sprayed out thick black sain He crashed the bike into the T-800 while he himself landed smoothly on the floor with a somersault

When ordinary people, and even contestants, took a high-speed rotating tire to their face, it was difficult to make any effectively responses besides the most basic self-protection h its jaas in a terrible mess of flesh, blood and ht hand into the rotating wheel!

The artificial skin on the T-800's right hand was thoroughly churned to pieces, but the Harley ed beyond recognition The powerful Terave the motorcycle another punch, and then tore it apart The rated state

Fortunately, a nearby contestant took the chance to fire a hot bullet into the fuel tank of the Harley The expensive and eye-catching toy exploded violently, wrapping the T-800 in a huge fireball That contestant should be a protector of Sarah Connor too

Sheyan did not re down fros and abdomen tensed to the limit, and he burst out like a cheetah towards Sarah Connor's body

He acted just in ti, a few silent hisses could be heard

That's the sound made by a pistol with a muffler

Seven bullets were let fly and accurately pierced into flesh If the special-made steel-core bulletheads had hit ordinary people, they would have churned the skin, ans into a pulp From the outside, the wounds would only look like small bullet holes, but the inside would look like conical holes the size of towel gourds!

Unfortunately, the one those seven bullets hit was Sheyan His strong physical defence caused the bullets to burst ahead of ti a few bloody holes on Sheyan's back Sheyan didn't even feel anything He picked up Sarah Connor's body and was prepared to run away

But just then, there was a loud crash fro, and a T-800 fell down from above to block Sheyan's way It launched a punch without saying a word

Sheyan took half a step back Grabbing Sarah Connor's body with his left hand, he blocked with his right

Against the T-800's force, Sheyan had to block with all his strength His shi+rt was stretched taut by his tensethe bulging veins and steel-like muscles inside!

“AAARRGH!!!!” Sheyan's eyes turned bloodshot as he groith all his htly and the pattern of a fist interlaced with a shi+eld eed That shocked all the contestants on scene

A Growth Hunter was nothing to be surprised at, but this was the first time any of them had seen a dual-attribute Growth Hunter! Soet h level!

However, the T-800 in front of Sheyan was a very simple war machine which had no concept of a Growth Hunter or a dual-attribute breakthrough Its power hthim in a short amount of tiht flashed outside the

Following that, a violent explosion da with Sheyan!

Chapter 977: A Plan to Strike Back

The robot's head hung at a weird angle as it staggered back fro bluish-white electrical currents sprayed out from its facial orifices

But the tremendous force of the iround forinto the next roo noises it made, there was probably no furniture left intact in that roo alone!

Brother Black was right behind him When he saw Sheyan had his way blocked by the T-800, he did not hesitate to bust out the new killer move he just obtained — the pulse shot fro indeed

Brother Black did not stop firing after that He alternated between ricochet bullets and special bullets to forht down froh he was constantly attacked, leaving a trail of blood and ragged clothes spattering behind him, he did not even bat an eye Sorenade froh to teive up that easily There was awalls and obstacles et to Sheyan His eyes were bloodshot and two jets of thick white gas which lingered in the air like steauy, Deco, was a formidable contestant on the Ter alchemist, with an ability somewhat si that couldinstinct of a crazed beast He really stood out in the previous fight and caused great trouble for the defending side

Mogensha's bullets could not hit him at all; they were always a step late and always arrived behind hiensha had encountered such a strange scenario The reason for this was that Deco had a strange passive ability which would refract the light acting on him It was sih they were deep

Of course, he would not be that hard to deal with if it was just that passive refraction The real problem lay in the fact that the refractive index of his ability was constantly changing, which led to the need to adjust to his refractive index all the tiravity He easily scaled the eaves and walls in his way, leaving behind clear footprints and raising a trail of dust in his wake The distance between hiensha and sroup of contestants followed behind hiht people in the group Their shots were surprisingly accurate

Although Sheyan was running with all his et to check the movement of the people in his rear Suddenly, there was a sharp braking sound froe tanker truck, in an atte, had lost control and overturned

The giant tanker truck slid forward carried by itsof horrible sparks on the road as it crashed towards the spot in front of Sheyan's group! It hit a building and exploded, engulfing an area of almost 1000 square nificent as the detonation of a large napalh it all happened in an instant, Sheyan clearly saw that both the stray dog and the driver of the large tanker truck were not under the control of contestants But it was precisely the coly accidental event that greatly hindered thes, which cannot be explained with science, were often called: misfortune

Sheyan had already suffered a “fate” attack in the previous world, so he was sensitive to these kind of weird occurances! In this short instance, Sheyan was not thinking of how to escape the danger in front of him, but had come to an i up in his ht after the tanker truck had overturned

If there really was so all this from behind the scenes, why not set the crash site of the tanker truck directly at their location? That way, there was no doubt that it could cause the ame?

Sheyan immediately overruled this possibility Anyone who could survive until now must be one who advocated efficiency above all else and wouldn't do any unnecessary things Just like the way veteran soldiers in ancient times wouldn't perform any sword techniques that were purely for aesthetic purposes

Therefore, Sheyan concluded that if there really was a mastermind behind all this, the person could not – or could, but needed to pay a great price – to use this way to directly affect or attack their group The person could only indirectly weaken the a pit on the path the group would traverse through, but they probably couldn't dig a pit directly underneath the group

The shock wave and explosion froroup The contestants in pursuit were about to swarm them

Sheyan threw the body of Sarah Connor away He did it in such a skillful way that the body rolled a few tiround Even if she was still alive, she would not have felt any pain

At this point, at least half the pursuing contestants had shown different sy and chest pain Deco was lucky to escape the disease He pounced towards Mogensha like a bolt of lightning Mogensha e Deco's initial strike, but Deco immediately swept upwards with his foot Sharp claws had inexplicably grew out of his toes The claws alensha's chest

At that ensha's feet NoDeco's refractive illusion was, it could do nothing against an AoE stun effect unless it could mislead other's vision for an error of over ten un across to fire a fusillade of shots in Deco's direction The bullets were scattered over a large area like the shot froh the “Deco” in their sight without any resistance, but streae That was Deco's real location

Sheyan lowered his head and rushed through the hte of the fist and the shi+eld! He fended off the attack of those hostile Growth Hunters and dashed right up to the unawakened Deco With the 'Zergling Rush' activated, he landed three consecutive punches on Deco

A crisp sound akin to glasses breaking was heard around Deco's body That was the sound of his refractive ability being destroyed by Sheyan's 'Strength of the Sky'!

Deco regained his ability to ht in front of hihway, because a red Ferrari had just burst through the residual fla in the wind, full of elegance and dignity, stood proudly on top of the Ferrari

The er she held in her hand, curved like a crescent ht

The light of death!

The light of destruction!

Deco, who had his refraction ward shattered, felt like he was standing there naked

To meet Zi at this mo naked in public with a sharp dagger held to his groin He could almost feel the chill in his balls!

Zi's eyes were closed Her curved silver dagger cut rapidly through the air Each cut would produce a sharp, lightning-like trace in the air Finally, the traces formed into a powerful and bizarre symbol — the crest of the Sith Republic in Star Wars

The powerful and bizarre symbol flew to a spot a e hand with jet-black skin and protruding joints The hand had only three fingers and extre nails It wrapped around Deco's neck

'Force Suffocation'!

The ability which sule the eneony! The enemy killed by the Sith demon claould turn into a certain amount of MP and fed back to the caster

When Deco's refractive as broken, he had already lost all fighting spirit He had turned tail theas he could run back to his group, he could be saved! But he had just run for a few steps when he suddenly felt a sharp pain around his neck The terrible giant hand had tightened its grip Deco's vision iroaned and screareen bile

Chapter 978: Escape

Sheyan's disease broke out for the second tih to escape the infection this tiasped for breath

Seeing this, Mogensha did not hesitate to pull out the Spartan javelin

It was obvious that the power of the javelin had increased after Mogensha was prohtning javelin, the rew into claws Not only that, but an illusionary i also appeared behind hi majestically in the air as if it was blown by the wind of Ther javelin shot away and pierced Deco three tiroup of contestants catching up fro the attack of the Spartan javelin, Deco was left with about three-fifths of his HP, an aard state If it was a little lower, he definitely would have used an honorary dosage, but if he did so now, it would feel like such a waste After all, the optie was to administer it when one had only a sliver of HP left One could then rise fro, Zi had opened her eyes

Her eyes were as deep and as vast as a sea of stars That kind of unspeakable charh to make people lose themselves in those eyes But in an instant, they turned into a terrible nebula storm which swept across Deco's mind in the form of countless needles!

'Force Needle Explosion'!

dicky instantly felt the world spinning around him He screamed hysterically but he could lass walls breaking and collapsing

The Deco as stunned by the 'Force Needle Explosion' becaet for Party Ace to concentrate their fire He only ed to endure for three seconds before he blew up in a horrible fleshy, bloody storm He was not even out of his stunned state yet

Of course, Sheyan was also withstanding heavy pressure all this while At the le, which was the most basic arrow formation, and Sheyan was the tip

There was no doubt that all the contestants in pursuit would attack Sheyan first Although Sheyan was tough, there were simply too many enemies; he was still beaten black and blue and had to take cover in a building to the side The other contestants refused to give up They jointly bo a few tiain, and when he escaped the building, he retrieved Sarah Connor's body and continued to flee Unfortunately, he slipped on a banana peel and lost his balance, falling to the ground But even then, for some reason, Sheyan still tried his best to protect Sarah Connor's body He would rather take the fall himself than to let any har? Is he a necrophile?” asked one of the contestants on the opposing side in a strong Devonshi+re accent “Also, why is our mission not shown as completed yet?”

Another contestant, as resentfully retracting his heavy sniper, replied, “Itthe body so carefully That guy's a freakingbut he's not even in a state of near death! He just took a shot from me head on, too! He must have more HP than the devil himself”

After the three on Sheyan's side joined forces to kill Deco, theside was stunted, because their opponents had just proven that had the ability to eliminate someone in an instant! The assault of the pursuers instantly lost its bite, but Sheyan, gritting his teeth while running aith Sarah Connor's body, cursed viciously

“damn, that shot just now almost broke my arm Whoever fired that shot, you better not let me catch you!”

The two sides continued their pursuit for two to three hundred ensha's shots, they could always force back any contestants who got close It could be seen froensha had already for between them

Sheyan could not help but wonder, ould the battle be like if Aziz was here with the, but he was quite unruly He was like a sharp blade If the wielder could not control the blade well, the blade could easily hurt its wielder instead Aziz was not someone whom an ordinary person could control

In fact, even in Zeus' party, Aziz existed in a detached way, almost like an independent entity outside the syste Zeus any respect at all But Sheyan felt, and he was positive, that he himself was one of the few people who could utilise Aziz and utilise him well

At the moment, Reef hadin ambush in the path of the pursuers

Sheyan and the others retreated while they fought While the contestants passed by him in pursuit, Reef suddenly made his appearance and disrupted their for Roar' Sheyan took the chance to turn around and rush into their e' At the same time, he thren a curse- contestants were instantly sent into chaos inside the dark green sained precedence, it had becoether with the stun effect, speed reduction and visual interference caused by Sheyan's curse mix… while the other side was not instantly defeated, they could no longer form any effective concentrated attack

Brother Black and Zi took the chance to launch a wanton boloves elow as various an to rotate violently He suddenly bent down and pounced forward like a tiger, not giving a care to the fierce slash co at him

The slash was very swift and very vicious

Blood gushed out fro of blood in his body, the blood shot nearly two h But Sheyan rab the throat of a gununs kicked violently, but Sheyan was not affected in the slightest Then, Sheyan squatted down and executed a shoulder throw The gunh into the air It was Sheyan's 'Tactical Throw'

Without the need for any instructions, Brother Black and Zi siuy had already used an honorary dosage previously Even though he hid hiht by Sheyan!

Powerful destruction continued to rain down on hi his whole body Finally, he had no HP left to support his life… The guy was violently shattered and split up before he could touch the ground! His body exploded, scattering his flesh and organs everywhere!

The Sith Lord's sinister laughter reverberated through the air A strand of dark aura appeared amidst the broken body pieces in the air and flew into Zi, filling up more than half of her previously depleted MP

After Party Acethe pursuers turned chaotic They all fell into the dangeroustheir personal safety first and fore were si Reef also turned out to be an MT, then the party they were fighting was actually a dual-MT party!

Further Sarah Connor had co to have their base attributes reduced for no reason, had started firing or casting spells from afar There was also that eerie and sinister disease which would occasionally break out Sheyan's groupcar and successfully escaped the pursuing contestants Now, they just have to guard against the Terminators sent after the the escape Not only had he used the 'Gloryheal' ability, he had also used the free honorary dosage After getting on the car, before he had even wrapped up his injuries, Sheyan had already started screa watched for sure! In uy called Fate, and I feel like the mastermind behind the scenes this time has a somewhat similar ability!

“You killed Fate?” asked Zi in surprise

Sheyan sic Barrier' came from”

“How did you kill him?” Zi obviously still found it hard to believe

“Good question I was able to kill Fate because there was a prerequisite for his ability – he had to see rasped this point, I used it to e and was able to eli now feels so we need to do is to escape that person's surveillance!”

“How do you think he's spying on us?” asked Reef with a frown

Sheyan gritted his teeth as he pulled a piece of shrapnel out of his aruy, I would find a way to use satellites to monitor Party Ace's actions as soon as I enter this world Do not underestiement is correct, let's try to stop that first”

Chapter 979: The Kidnapping

“Hey, real as a lieutenant colonel to prevent other contestants froet my information,” said Sheyan loudly

Sheyan had already suffered fro similar in the Jurassic Park world, where his every action was monitored via a satellite Therefore, he was fanetic shi+elding Furthermore, he was now a lieutenant colonel, so the process had beco three achievement points, everyone in Sheyan's party was shi+elded

The shi+eld was naturally limited in soainst contestants of lower ranks Secondly, if other contestants made their own satellite and launch it into space, Sheyan's jaainst it because the shi+eld was only effective for native technology

Zi also beca threat was resolved, she pulled out her silver crescent dagger Threads that looked like the tentacles of a jellyfish extended out froled around, carefully searching for anything suspicious

Zi was being over cautious, as she knew of soh a crystal ball As it turned out, Zi's wariness was not unfounded After a brief search, she shook her head and shouted, “There's nothing”

Sheyan i, and as soon as Zi finished her sentence, she pierced her slily empty space at the side The place sparkled for a ns of spatial instability She flicked her dagger and caught a fist-sized ical creature from within

The creature had four ears, and its purplish-black body was uneven like a toad Its tongue was red and flat, dripping colorless, transparent ht, it screaer, killing itself and contaer

After that, everyone heaved a sigh of relief Their bodies felt lighter, as if an invisible pressure had been lifted

Not long after that, they suddenly heard the sound of a bird fluttering and beating its wings outside the carIt turned out to be a lark, which were usually very shy, pecking at the

Sheyan immediately let the bird in, then spread out a newspaper The lark began to peck the newspaper with its beak Each letter pecked was jotted down by Sheyan In the end, theis done”

It was obviously a ht as he said, “We can now confir about the et at a time Otherwise, he would've dealt with Sanzi as well Since Sanzi was reat chance to eliminate him The fact that he didn't shows that he can't control two sides at once”

Brother Black finally relaxed He lit a cigar for his, before puffing out a s “That bastard! He actually followed us all the way into this world!”

Sheyan scoffed “Since he doesn't knohen to stop, this world will be his grave Reef, help e myself”

Reef picked up Sarah Connor's body and asked in doubt, “But boss, why do you value this woman's corpse so much? Sure, our mission was to protect her, but she's already dead!”

Sheyan pulled out the 'Chris Redfield's Lucky Bracelet' and soaked it in Sarah Connor's blood Then, he continued to bare his upper body to let Zi pull out the bullets or shrapnels that were imbued in his body with the Force

As for Reef's question, Sheyan narrowed his eyes and replied, “Since the onists are both dead, why haven't we failed our mission yet?”

Reef felt weird about that too After thinking for a while, he said, “I don't know Is it related to this corpse?”

“Of course it is I also know that if we don't do anything, the mission will fail in an hour at the very latest,” replied Sheyan faintly

“Why?” Even Zi was curious

But their discussion was interrupted by Sanzi's e in the party couys can come now”

Sheyan nodded Brother Black stepped on the accelerator, executing a beautiful drift, and the car rushed towards Sanzi's location Soon, a professional-looking ambulance, which looked very new, came into view The ambulance was parked on the side of the road and Sanzi was in it

“What the hell” Brother Black was so surprised that he dropped his cigar “I know that the Terically advanced than the real world (Skynet was self-conscious on August 29, 1997, killing 3 billion people that day What could the real-world internet do in 1997?), but the a back a person whose neck has been broken for half an hour Coed his tehts are clouded, AK Think carefully Who's the ensha was stunned He murmured, “The main character…in the Terot out of the aed ed man did not look like he had been bound, beaten, or threatened, his movements were stiff like a puppet

If you looked carefully, you'd notice an inconspicuous spider crawling on the artery on his wrist

The spider was not the harmless kind which bite could turn someone into an American superhero It was a North American venomous spider, which cyanide venom it inject could kill someone in a minute and fourteen seconds

The reason why the information was so precise was that when Sanzi “invited” the ht on his persuasion, he let the spider bite an ied uard lasted for a minute and fourteen seconds

Sanzi then asked for thethat the uard's record, he brought him here without much trouble

Sheyan stepped forward and said to the ed man, “I'm so sorry we have to uished nobel Prize winner, a top geneticist in the United States, and an esteelobally – at least, that's what it says in the phone book The reason we brought you here is because we need you to do a tiny little favour for us Don't worry, it's so you've done countless times before”

Professor Edwards' face twitched He could barely maintain his calm as he said, “Do you think I can perforentlemen? Every experiment I do requires the utmost precision!”

With a smile, Sanzi moved the veno it Sheyan s Professor Edwards and said, “See, we're very sincere And I repeat, what I need you to do may be very co water You may have done it thousands of tiet a handsoical trau Sheyan's words, Sanzi threw a diamond that was at least three carats to Professor Edwards It orth noting that there was a “xxx Jewelry Store” price tag on the diaiti on whether he should refuse the offer when Sheyan said softly, “That was just the deposit, prof After it's done…”

Sanzi took out a sobx-sized pouch and shook it The contents tinkled loudly Sheyan smiled and nodded “This pouch will be yours Of course, if you fail, it won't be pleasant for you”

The were currently in a very chaotic place with pretty bad public security, so as soon as Sanzi revealed their wealth just now, several people had already startedtowards them sloith their hands behind their back There were also solance over froroup, and probably assault Zi too while they were at it Mogensha sot too close He's not exactly a nice guy himself He stuffed the muzzle of his AK into the robber's mouth and fired without hesitation

Professor Edwards' face twitched He knew that he had roup of criminals today

“I can help you, but at least let me knohat you wantSarah Connor's body out

“She's been dead for less than half an hour,” he told the professor

Professor Edwards went forward to inspect the corpse After a while, he nodded heavily

Sheyan stepped forward and whispered, “What I need you to do is…”

When Professor Edowrds heard Sheyan's request, his expression suddenly lightened up Finally, he asked a little nervously, “That's all?”

Sheyan nodded “That's all But I need you to make sure that the success rate is 100!”

Chapter 980: The Real Reason

Professor Edwards clenched his teeth and told Sheyan, “Fine! But you have to fulfill a few criteria first It's impossible to ensure a 100 success rate with the lio to Elia Private Hospital at once!

“Wouldn't that take tooat the corpse of Sarah Connor

Now that the topic of conversation finally turned to his field of expertise, Professor Edwards smiled with ease and said, “Not a problem There are always some differences bethat's written in books and in reality”

He stepped forward and exaradually becahtened as he said, “Under normal circumstances, fivethis phase, the brain will die and thethree hours Within three hours, the body will not undergo es in its internal environestive system At least, the muscles will rerees Many anaerobic reactions will continue, and some special cells will remain active Note that this estimate is for the elderly who suffer from chronic illnesses For people ere physically healthy when they were alive, the duration can be extended to up to four hours People like the corpse in question, for instance”

“OK” Sheyan hesitated no longer “Since the professor is so confident, there's no reason e shouldn't support hiroup quickly jumped into the ambulance, turned on the siren and drove to Elia Private Hospital On the way there, Sheyan looked at Mogensha and asked, “Do you understand now?”

“Nope,” replied Mogensha with a shrug

Sheyan smiled and said, “First, tell me Who's the main character of the Terensha

Sheyan shook his head slightly “Wrong! The first main character in the Terminator world is the future leader of the Resistance, John Connor, while the second main character is Skynet All the stories revolve around them”

“But John will only appear in the future, and the sa to do with us right now,” Mogensha could not help exclaih tiht next to us”

As soon as Sheyan uttered this sentence, Zi and Sanzi's displayed an incredulous look, feeling as if so had been punctured inside them

“How's that possible?! You inal plot, Sarah Connor was a single woman until she met Kyle Reese, a warrior from the future Maybe it's fear, maybe it's love, maybe it's to vent, but theychased, resulting in John Connor”

“According to the inforot, Sarah Connor and Kyle Reese had spent ether before we entered this world”

Sheyan's eyes sparkled with a ray of light that see “Well, 48 hours were plenty of ti to the plot, the chances of conceiving after sex this time are 100, or the main plotline wouldn't exist otherwise Now…you should understand what I ht next to us

(TL: Holy sht) (ED: Yeah, this sht's wild)

“The future leader of the Resistance, Mr John Connor, is still with us in the fallopian tube of his— Sarah Connor is dead, but the fertilised egg is still alive! It's precisely thanks to the existence of the fertilised egg that ouras John, the protagonist doesn't die, no e too much! We're actually pretty lucky It only takes one stray bullet through Sarah Connor's abdo this mission The bullet doesn't even have to hit her uterus or fallopian tube directly because the resulting biological conta”

“But… But there's still a ways to go to turn hiensha could not help saying

“That's why Professor Edwards, the great geneticist, is here with us His authority in this field is beyond doubt He has just told us that huans will fail within five minutes after a hus in fallopian tubes lasts for about four hours…”

“Because Professor Edwards told us this right after we shot a guy's head off with a gun, I think the information should be credible No one would joke with their own life after all Oh right, I forgot to introduce another one of Professor Edwards' identity The yellow page clearly stated his title as: the Director of the Stepford Infertility Center He has performed more than 1,000 IVF operations so far”

The so-called IVF, or test-tube baby technology, is not a technology which enabled babies to grow in test tubes, but a process ofin a laboratory dish, then transfer the eh in vitro fertilisation) back into the woman's uterus (embryo transplantation) The embryo can then develop in the uterine cavity like in a nornancy until it reaches full term, after which it can be birthed norreat boon for many parents with inactive sperm or fallopian tube deformities, and the nuure of four millions

What Sheyan wanted Professor Edwards to do right noas si out of the fallopian tube of the dead Sarah Connor (a wo a month, so it's not difficult to find) and after the proper treatment, transfer it into the womb of a healthy woman

In that way, the future saviour will still be born – just with a different mother

Professor Edwards could already perforo, so the only thing he orried about right noas not the failure of the operation, but whether Sheyan would keep his pro!”

The one who spoke was Ougens, who had unwittingly joined the side of the Ter the pursuit, he was pretty relentless at first

He felt as if he had fallen into a huge conspiracy after co effort, their side had finally ets and finally saw a sliver of hope, but a bunch of people had suddenly appeared halfway through and stolen away Sarah Connor! Of course they would chase with everything they had! (All of thelimmer of life left, or had faked her death)

But what happened afterwards scared the life out of Ougens

Be it the dual-attribute MT, or the olden AK, they all appeared to be as unshakeable as towering ens And there was that dual-MT configuration towards the end!

This led directly to the pursuers being struck down h their numbers were ens was almost sure that even the T-800 Terht with that forroup had chosen the defending side of thean insurain in the distance A sens' side and ran along in a cold silence towards a contestant running in panic over fiftythe Ter as they were not within ten ens narrowed his eyes He had already resigned hi the mission, so he was deterave chase

The fleeing contestant suddenly turned around and fired

Soet and burrowed themselves into the wall nearby, while the rest hit the T-800, but besidesholes in its clothes, they did not seem to hinder the Terminator much

However, the bullets were just a feint The contestant suddenly opened his renade With a kick, the grenade flew straight at the Terhty Terminator immediately fell into a state of interference

The contestant was going to escape successfully!

Just then, a figure flashed out of the pillar to the left of Ougens The person was dressed as a hippie and had a ers was an Ace of Spades poker card A ray of light shot out with a light flick of his fingers

A shrill noise which was like the sound of a chainsaw forcefully sawing through steel could be heard The flying card shot through the air and left a faint trail of light behind it When it cut through the steel surface of a car, the surface would split, roll up, and e that was the abrupt halt to the ceaseless shooting of the gun It was replaced by an agonising screaun traced a parabolic path in the air before crashi+ng down to the ground

Chapter 981: Searching for John's New Moly ordinary poker card possessed an unstoppablecontestant!

Since soed to strike down one of the opponents, Ougens was supposed to relax a little, but instead, his brow furrowed evenhippie, Thoas before he entered the night skill he just displayed

But the greater the power, the bigger the cost, so in every world, Thompson would at most use these “sharp cards” five times They were his ultimate skill and literally his trump card Based on how pale he looked at the y to throw another card

Since he had already used his ultimate move at this point, didn't that s in this world? He was taking the chance to reap as ens watched as the pale Tho his spoils after successfully killing the ene was off, but for the life of him, he couldn't pinpoint what it was

Suddenly, the powerful T-800 Terinal position It was only hit with an electroe – ram, but that's all

But now the T-800's eyes suddenly exploded, and a bluish-white electrical current sprayed out of theth of three to foursparks Then, the mechanical parts that made up its body fell apart and crashed down into a heap of scrap iron, as if they had suddenly lost the force which held theether!

That wasn't all The pile of scrap iron was still burning on the ground A large amount of black smoke rose into the air and for information was really similar to the way the realm handed out the main mission when they first stepped foot in this world!

“O lost sheeps, I will guide you to the road of success…”

At this tiroup had arrived at the Elia Private Hospital

They were not afraid of any aht

Sheyan's actions from before had undeniably lifted the morale of the whole party

The enemy had already laid down the chessboard in a way that would ensure their defeat, but his plan was still foiled by Sheyan, who had found a sliver of chance fro the details Sheyan had then expanded that sliver of chance into a legitimate path to success!

Theprecariously on the edge of failure with the male and female lead both dead Even if they coet the lowest evaluation, but for the er important All they hoped for was not to have their attributes deducted again

By now, Sheyan had gained a better understanding of Sanzi's usefulness His role as a su hih powerful equipments, in conjunction with Sanzi's own innate talent, he had completely broken the shackles of an ordinary summoner

The way summoners usually operated was to taht in dangerous places Because once the su process, it was very troublesome

But most of the time, Sanzi could recruit and control a creature immediately after they h offense was the nore too For example, the lark that came to them to deliver news before, or the venomous spider that was used to threatened Professor Edwards, were both very useful

Before stepping into Elia Private Hospital, Sanzi had even summoned a few rats to scout the place to prevent the into a trap Instead of a summoner, he was more like a druid who had mastered the way of nature

None of the otherwhen Sanzi joined the team, but it was inevitable that their ih nepotism But now, Sanzi had proven himself to be very useful in a utility role and could effectively s in the teah they had only spent a few hours together, even the e Sanzi as a teammate

They had drawn the equipht, in addition to so special They drew a dark blue equipment and a black equipment, both of which were not very useful to theiven to Sheyan to feed to the internal furnace in his 'Planetary-Grade High-Energy Mechanical Power Gloves'

The energy bar of the gloves had already fallen below the red warning level because Sheyan, or more precisely, the entire Party Ace, had no extra funds to recharge them The two pieces of equiploves were fed with the equiploves were finally increased to approximately 70

Each of them had also obtained the title of 'Machine Predator' The effect of the title was pretty weak, but it was very useful for title synthesisation

(TL: 'Machine Predator' was mentioned way back in chapter 8)

Elia Private Hospital appeared to have a good working relationshi+p with Professor Edwards The people here seemed very familiar with him Sheyan stood at the side in a white coat, silently overseeing the series of procedures without anyone questioning his presence

Professor Edwards had lost count of the nu from a woman's body It was even easier to do so from a woman's corpse, since he didn't need to apply anesthetics or consider the feeling of the patient It saved a lot of ti in a practiced rade nutritional liquid, before inspecting it under a microscope After a while, he s It seems that the death of the mother has not had any effect on it yet”

Sheyan also checked the microscope He knew that the sperm was the smallest cell in the human body and a man could excrete hundreds of est cell in the human body and there would nor was easily visible with a loer microscope

“What's next?” asked Sheyan

Professor Edwards hesitated for a moment before he answered, “Nor and inject soive it one to three weeks to develop Finally, ill implant the embryo in a healthy woman's uterus”

Sheyan said flatly, “We don't have that much tith and luck But before that, I'd like to witness an embryo transfer operation I heard that the operation is very simple and is only as difficult as a circumcision operation?”

“Well, yes, in theory, if we do all the necessary preparation beforehand”

“Good Then please arrange it I'd like to take a look at the next embryo transfer operation You mentioned before that more than a dozen patients come here every day for check-up and operations?”

Sheyan naturally wouldn't leave everything to a storyline character That would be a very dangerous e number of Terminators and contestants, ar the fertilised egg

Which hy an hour later, he got hiun, and a book

The bottle is filled with the latest nutritional liquid, which could provide enough nutrients to the embryo soaked inside it to ensure that the embryo obtained the necessary nutrients as it would in the fallopian tube This bottle of nutritional liquid could ensure that the fertilised egg grew healthily within seven days

The syringe could suck 1000cc of the nutritional liquid and the e the eun

The length of the needle on the injection gun had undergone precise measurement It could easily penetrate the skin, abdominal muscles, and outer wall of the uterus, so that the tip of the needle be placed just inside the uterus With a pull of the trigger, the liquid and ee would be transfered into the uterus without spilling a drop

The book was titled “All About IVF”

Having done all this, Professor Edwards discovered that those mysterious and vicious people did not break their proot his diamonds, but had also survived

But six hours after Sheyan and his group left, another person found Professor Edwards Despite the professor's cooperative attitude, he was nevertheless killed

That's because the person who interrogated Professor Edwards would rather that what the professor had said was a lie He understood that if Professor Edwards had not lied, it would be very difficult to stop Sheyan now, unless…unless they could kill every woeles!

Currently, John was still a fertilised egg, while both the male and female lead of the Terminator movie were dead, so Skynet's dispatch of Ter in a McDonald's, eating ha coke with all the Party Acea thick briefcase

Chapter 982: Waiting is Also a Form of Attack

“We must be careful in the selection of John's mother We must make sure that the first reaction the new nant will be to cry tears of joy and thank God, instead of calling an abortion centre to ask how much it'll cost We'll leave the rest to the real better than ill,” said Sheyan while chewing aproject, boss,” ensha

Sheyan drank half a coke and burped coree with you, AK, but we have to do it no raphic infor a list of fa to adopt boys, and a list of infertile patients waiting for treatment There's a mother with a fallopian tube defor we can use in here”

While Sheyan was speaking, he handed out a thick pile of inforht person First, John's mother should be below 35 years old because older nancy complications”

Not many people would discuss work in a McDonald's, but such people were not few either The focus of the public was on the recently invading machine mob, so they were especially alert to anyone with stiff, dull faces, and would ins of suspicious activities Since Sheyan's group talked and laughed merrily, no one suspected the by Party Ace already eliminated 3/4 of the candidates

Sheyan ordered another Colonel Chicken (TL: This ain't KFC wat u doin author) and issued the second require on the chicken

“Second, John's mother should have a decent job, which ensures that she has enough nancy to cope with all kinds of accidents”

This require the candidates

Sheyan continued, “She should have a refined husband, sohly educated, non-alcoholic, and has no record of violence – after all, doe”

After listening to Sheyan's request, Zi shrugged and said, “You sure set a high standard We'll have to ate and verify their situations”

“I'll pay for the phone bills,” said Sheyan with a smile

Zi rolled her eyes at that, but even this action of hers contained an indescribable chare in expression, he rubbed Zi's leg tentatively under the table It resulted in his toes being stomped by the heel of her stiletto The pain penetrated into the very core of his being, but he dared not , there were only nine candidates re Everyone was relieved that the most difficult phase of the task was over However, Sheyan's next order sent them to the brink of insanity

“Now, the last requirement” Sheyan said with some difficulty, “I want to know the exact tione too far!”

“I object!”

“We're not risking our lives in the nightmare world to satisfy a certain person's abnormal fetishes!!!”

“SILENCE!!!!!”

The veins on Sheyan's forehead throbbed “Do you seriously think I'm that kind of person?”

Sheyan's expression that was full of righteousness finally silenced thehed wickedly

“Brilliantly done, hteous ie he had worked so hard to create was inorant, illiterate, uncultured masses! It's clearly written in “All About IVF” that a wonant For exa the menstruation period and 10 days afterwards, the environment inside the uterus is like a barren land, and the success rate of eher than 30 The most suitable time for e with ignorant people is a real pain”

Towards the end of his speech, Sheyan was already roaring and growling, but he suddenly noticed Zi giving hinorant?”

Sheyan coughed sheepishly and changed the subject “Let's move on All their contact information is here Tell theet some information from them in order to properly process their request Try to speak in a textbook doctor's tone It won't be much of a problem”

The survey found that the contact details of four of the nine candidates were already out of use The re five contact numbers were successfully connected, but tere picked up not by the candidates themselves, and the people who picked up the phone could not answer questions as personal ascandidates, one had a change of heart She had suddenly realised that children were “terrifying creatures” and no longer wanted to have one

In the end, their choices was narrowed down to two Ms Adess told theo,while Ms Dumbley was just done with her last period Therefore, they had no choice but to set their sights on on Ms Adess

The re process was simple

Sheyan slipped some aphrodisiac into the dinner of Ms Adess and her husband and waited for the ether as anesthetic, he succeeded in injecting John Connor, still in his embryo state, into Ms Adess' body

The most error-prone part of the e the depth at which the needle needed to penetrate the body Too deep, and the needle would penetrate through the uterus, but too shallow, and the tip would not reach into the uterus

They were errors often committed by newbies who perfor hands Sheyan was also a newbie, but he was soh a lot of life-and-death situations, so hisHe succeeded on his first try

After cleaning their trails and re out of the ordinary, Sheyan set fire to the several archives he had been to, destroying all the sources of the inforathered This way, it would be impossible for their enenition ability

As a matter of fact, divination abilities did exist in the real the whereabout of a main character that was still in an eh So, Sheyan was not too worried regarding thistrouble to Ms Adess if they were found, so they did not hesitate to leave far away

After all that was done, they finally received notifications from the realm

[ The saviour John Connor's eical mother's body He is currently alive ]

[ Please wait patiently After the critical period of thirty-six hours, your main mission will be deeh of relief The sword at their neck which threatened to cut their base attributes had ony was almost unbearable

These thirty-six hours, of course, could not be spent in vain Sheyan and his team had ensured the co as they stayed far away from Adess now, the embryo of John Connor was almost iift for Party Ace

And as all the Party Ace members knew, Sheyan came to this world due to that mysterious metal nut There was no ti the nut

But Sheyan frohen he heard this suggestion because he did not intend to do so

Sheyan had not forgotten about the “mastermind behind the scenes”, and he was almost certain that the ba had already done this mission, he would certainly reveal the mission process in detail There was no doubt that if they chose to complete the nut mission now, the other side would launch an attack at the most difficult juncture in the mission!

Sheyanfroin with, and they were also hidden in the shadoaiting to a the mission, even survival would beco the period when Party Ace wasside had hid thens of their actions On the other hand, the contestants who had accepted theSarah Connor would occasionally appear on the news channels as if they were ave Sheyan a huge pressure

The ene side, oefully divided, and helped them disappear without a trace in a short period of time!

A deep scrutiny would reveal that the capability displayed by theThe vanished ene in the dark; though invisible, one could feel its existence, its bloodthirst and its razor sharp edge!

If it was soment under such intense pressure

But Sheyan happened to be an extremely patient man More importantly, he believed he could afford to wait! In the end, the one to break down first would definitely be the other party!

Because so is also a form of attack

A powerful attack!

Chapter 983: Countercheck!

Why is waiting also a foruys after all They lacked the kind of strong organisational force that bound a group of people with coether

They would be fine if there were plenty of tianized and distrustful of each other, and with the 36-hour deadline swiftly approaching, they were under great pressure!

Sheyan truly felt that the ather these loose bunch of contestants together as well as to get thely hide themselves But it would take a God, not a mortal, to cale of failing theirall their base attributes deducted

So Sheyan chose to wait and let the precious tireatest advantage possessed by Sheyan's side was that they would ee victorious if the status quo remained until the end

In other words, they completely held the upper hand

To be honest, Sheyan was extremely wary of thatwas indeed difficult to guard against If Party Ace made any rash actions and lost the initiative in this battle, resulting in theensha or Sanzi's life

Sianisational structure ensured that they could not withstand a sudden assault by Ace Party too It would easily collapse the ly built!

And so, a stalemate had become the main theme of this battle

Whoever revealed a flaw first, would lose!

As ti some anxiety Instead, the other contestants who had received the “Protect Sarah Connor”themselves busy, as was evident froes on TV from time to time

The official news channels becaet information on the outside world They were as explosion that occurred at a certain research institute Military-grade gas tanks like those used in the institute would never blow up that easily Soy inside ht between so traffickers and the police It ain reputation with certain factions or to achieve some milestones

Even the Cyberdyne Systems company, which would produce Skynet, had been harassed Note that it was just harassment and not an assault The hapless perpetrator seemed to have bitten off more than he could chew In the end, sadly, he was carried out covered with a white cloth on a stretcher

“Those people sure are calm” Reef clutched a cup of water and paced back and forth restlessly If he gripped the cup any tighter, it would surely crack

They were now on the rooftop of a thirty-storey building, where a rusty galvanized iron shack had been built by the building er to earn a little extra cash for himself The rusty iron rattled as the wind blew Whoever stayed here would feel an oppressive feeling

This place h spot with nowhere to run if the situation got dangerous, but there were actually three buildings around it that were lower in height, and the gaps to those buildings were all less than 20 meters in width It would not be hard for a contestant to jump to the opposite side

Moreover, Sheyan was confident in the team he built from scratch In this world, it would be hard to find any side that could force them to run away in panic in a direct confrontation

If they did not have to protect the corpse of the female lead in the previous battle, Sheyan and Reef could just rush into the ensha's help, the ones to flee would have been the enemies instead!

Another important point was, if thewith Party Ace, ould he bother with so much set-up and schemes?

Sheyan kneell that thevictory was not with sche superiority!

Faced with Reef's doubts, Sheyan just smiled and said, “They will lose their cool sooner or later In fact, now that half the ti”

Mogensha's spirit was instantly lifted when he heard that “Where's that?” he asked

The only peculiarity Sheyan could detect on the nal engraved on its thread – but the it was only visible under a high power htmare reallean anyclues However, after entering this world, the nut began to show some more information:

“Workshop No7, Knox Factory”

Since a location was given, there was no doubt that any stories that would develop later would start froether with the SOS clue, the time, the location and the event could be fully deduced

If theto do with the Stockholm party as Sheyan had speculated, he would know this place too Now that Sheyan had vanished froht there

Sheyan looked serious as he told theh I know the enemies must be around that place, we still have to wait It's now a battle to see which side will lose their patience first Our disadvantage is that we entered this world almost a whole week later than they did, so we don't know if they've prepared anything in secret The good news is that it's al as we hole up here Whoever et, the status quo is beneficial to us So why not wait?

Party Ace's main mission slowly approached the time limit

An hour left…

30 minutes left…

10 minutes left…

Sheyan's face darkened One of Sanzi's sue plant familiar which could be used for surveillance Sanzi could plant the plant fa surveillance ca on a building next to the Knox factory

So far, there had been no movement in the factory

This had coment In Sheyan's esti the opposing contestants, ere nothing more than a rabble, as the time limit counted down to 10 hours!

Now, the time limit was already within 10 minutes, but the place was still so quiet!

Sheyan felt the situation slipping out of his control, which was a frightening thought His throat felt dry Zi thoughtfully handed hiulped down

“How could this be?” Sheyan couldn't helpto hieins: 10, 9, 8, … 1, 0! ]

[Silver party Ace have completed the main mission: “Save”]

[ Main h Sarah Connor and her boyfriend did not survive the intense assassination attempt, but their child, the future leader of the Resistance, John Connor e draoal was not achieved ]

[ Mission evaluation: D – Extreentlemen, for a time, you put Mr John Connor's life in a very precarious position More ie the future It would have been great if you could keep Kyle Reese and Sarah Connor alive! ]

[ Mission reward: 3000 utility points and 2 achieveend level +1) You are not qualified to receive free attribute points ]

The low evaluation score of the main mission ithin Sheyan's expectation His attention was still focused on the Knox factory's side The factory had re at all

Sheyan waited for another hour after that The whole time was spent in anxiety His dark eyebroere furrowed deep as he paced restlessly back and forth in the iron shack like a trapped ani hirabbed a piece of iron that protruded from the wall and tore it off as he yelled, “I understand now! That bastard!!! I've underestio to the Knox factory! ”

It took less than twenty minutes for Party Ace to arrive outside the factory Frouarded the place was, there was no doubt that the factory was a key roup, it was not too difficult if they just wanted to infiltrate the outer area and not the core area The guards wouldn't be able to detect their presence

Next, Sanzi used his ability to control ten odd rats to survey the area

The rats soon found a suspicious location inside the Knox factory

It was a place that used to be an hall, but was now an abandoned warehouse

This place was suspicious because…even a rat could not get in

The party soon reached the entrance of the warehouse with Sheyan and Reef in the lead They forced open the door with violent means

The door looked old and broken, but it was actually very strong

Looking inside, Sheyan had a very o because the ent ser!

Then, just as the heavy door was pushed open by a crack, Sheyan and Reef both saw dead bodies – at least ten of them!

Bloodied bodies were scattered everywhere

More importantly, they were all bodies of dead contestants…

Sheyan even recognised some of them They were the feho had caused himself considerable trouble in their pursuit of Sarah Connor's corpse

The spectacle in front of hiht of so!

'If it wereall these people?'

This thought immediately made him feel an unspeakable horror

Then, his attention moved back to the door of the warehouse

The door that looked old and broken, but it was really hard to open! When he had used all his ht to push it open just now, he seehts flashed across his uy couldn't have knoe would coer type! Fortunately, Zi and the rest were very far away in case so unexpected happens We still have a chance!'

Sheyan i the door open

The knuckles on the gloves on his hands began to spin wildly while erabbed the ar him towards the distant Zi with a shoulder throw At the sae', quick! Get as far away from this damn place as possible! ”

It was fortunate that the hidden mastermind had truly pressured theh alert the whole ti won them a few seconds of buffer time, which allowed them to withdraw a few dozen meters further and to find cover for themselves

After that, a terrible explosion occurred

More than 20 old ball of light suddenly appeared The diaht wasup, or at least, that's what it looked like Anything that ca soil and water…because they were all made of atoms

Countless atoe up!

The reddish-gold ball of gentle light ireed, and utterly unspeakable hysteria! It produced a black hole-like suction force in an instant, see around it into itself Even the surrounding space was showing signs of collapse!

The warehouse door that was forced open by Sheyan and Reef was collapsing too It was a huge piece of iron over 10and 3 meters thick, but it was instantly sed inside The door was completely annihilated withoutthere, he could not have escaped the terrifying suction force either

But he was not standing there He had already used the 'Mind Trans frolement of Victory' He had beco the core area of the suction force

Even so, Sheyan was still unable to resist the terrifying force He could only grab tightly to a broken steel bea on

His face eaty (TL: arhetti), his muscles twisted, and his teeth rattled loudly He held on with every ounce of strength he had, but his worst fear soon ca steel bearadually bend!

Just as the steel beale, the suction force started to die down Sheyan suddenly stu happy, he was shocked!

That's because he had discovered that the air before hiht sar that was thrown into the water, rapidly dissolving!

Evenwas the fact that Sheyan found hi into his nostrils broke into tiny pieces like thin icicles They collided with each other and ran ra his respiratory tract ounds All Sheyan sucked into his lungs was blood! His own blood!

“AH AH AH AH! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!”

Sheyan let out an earth-shaking roar! His fists punched the air in front of hi it into its gaseous form! At the saround

The hard ground in the warehouse area collapsed, falling doards a burning red sea!!

A cascade of blood-reddown like a waterfall It see doith it!

Next,

A huge explosion happened

For the first few dozen seconds, everything was quiet, as if the earlier peace had been restored After that, everything slowly unfolded like a slow-rand explosion was like a blosso around it! Finally, it shot ray vortex in the clouds!

This power of this explosion was extre even the destructive force of nuclear weapons at its core, but its scope was not large It also had a very clear border, which was 20 meters around the warehouse Outside this core area of 20 meters, the power of the explosion quickly diminished

Sheyan was just outside the core area of the explosion

Standing close to such a terrible explosion zone, Sheyan somehow did not feel any pain Instead, he felt his blood boiling all over He onlyon for about three seconds before the sacred and majestic pale yellow layer of 'Life-link' enshrouded him

That was the reason Sheyan had to throw Reef away If both of theer zone, then both of them would have perished, unlike the situation nohere Reef could help Sheyan take the re a rate What shocked Sheyan was that a thin but clear line of crack had suddenly appeared on the 'Life-link' layer on the surface of his body under the terrifying force of the explosion! The crack, though not very long, was really frightening If the protective layer was broken, Sheyan would definitely cru in there! I swear, if I survive today, I'll definitely upgrade the level of 'Life-link'!”

Fortunately, the duration of the explosion was short; it left as quickly as it came And the power of the explosion seems to have been limited, because the shockwave after the explosion did not burst towards every direction, but was concentrated upwards like a volcano eruption Otherwise, the entire city of Los Angeles would have been destroyed

At the site of the explosion, a strange pit, shaped like a cylinder, could be seen The pit was 80 meters wide and at least 200 meters deep Smoke rose up from around the pit and froe of the pit and look down to the bottoold energy re oil underneath, before it dissipated

This explosion could really be called a “surgical knife strike”; it was precise, effective, and do- small-scale but powerful!

Sheyan lay less than three e of the deep pit, charred and blackened He breathed heavily as his fingers dug deep into the ground

When Brother Black pulled him up and carried him on his back, Sheyan could still curl his lips into a smile He said weakly, “Seems like today's not the day I die Even a trap like this couldn't kill ensha was in still shock due to the unexpected explosion His mind was in turmoil so he didn't knohat to say When he saw Sheyan fall unconscious, he turned to Zi for help

Zi looked really pale too If Party Ace was slightly careless and had congregated around the warehouse door, there probably would not be many of them left, if any An explosion of this scale was unlikely to escape the attention of the government, not to mention that the Knox factory was supposed to be a military facility with heavy protection In order to avoid a direct conflict with the government, they could only withdraw temporarily and wait for Sheyan's injury to heal

Sheyan was having a really agonising dreama He was hot and dry and in desperate need of water, but he could not find a single drop

Fortunately, at thathand suddenly supported his back Sheyan then felt so into his lips His instinct reedily until he could not stoh of satisfaction afterwards

Chapter 985: The Real Reason

After drinking enough water, Sheyan's brain had pretty much woken from its stupor He slowly opened his eyes, but quickly closed theently next to his ear, “We're safe now; there's no rush to get up Just reh and then adjust to the environment You just had a severe concussion…”

Sheyan took a deep breath and continued to lie in bed as he was told After about ahas it been since the explosion?”

Zi looked at the time and replied, “It's been seven hours”

Sheyan nodded in response

“Normally, if we don't have a side mission, we can only stay in the sa the main mission for 12 hours at most Well, that's not a problem We still have more than four hours of time left”

“I've been in this world before, so I know the way to trigger a side mission We'll look for a certain bastard and start a sideour stay in this world Ouch!”

Sheyan groaned because of a sharp pain in his back A strand of reddish-gold negative energy froht onto his back and eroded into his body It had not dissipated even after such a long tiy stubbornly resided in Sheyan body like bone-suckingagainst it Every tiy would et better this way?

Zi carefully wiped the blood off Sheyan's wound The blood was very hot, alht, waiting for acute pain to pass

He then said, “We'll go look for a guy called Vincent… There's a pretty high chance we'll get a side mission from him If Vincent lets us down, there's bound to be a side raain the trust of the latter, so he can't be our first choice ”

Mr Vincent has nottiotten who he is That's right, he's the soon-to-be-a transaction with Sheyan He could never have iined that the man he betrayed back then would coroup of people with hiritted his teeth and climbed out of bed, then stood up with so onto his shoulder He could clearly feel the tory in the body He had no choice but to nuhtly better after that, but his combat ability was still only half of what it was in his peak condition

The group walked out and got on a bus heading to Cyberdyne Systems' company headquarters The bus was quite empty Sheyan and his party sat at the back of the bus The atmosphere was heavy and nobody spoke

Sheyan closed his eyes and pondered for a while, then slowly breathed out

“A,” he said in the party communication channel

As if Sheyan's words had broken some sort of barrier, everyone instantly felt relieved

“You're talking about the mastermind behind the scenes?” asked Zi

Sheyan's expression was as calm as the surface of a lake as he nodded while he replied, “Yeah This guy is merciless, meticulous, and decisive Not only that, he's also very cautious As soon as he catches a whiff of danger, he's out He doesn't do anything he's not sure of All this et rid of him! I'm afraid we have to be very wary of him in the foreseeable future ”

“But his plan still failed,” Zi showed Sheyan an encouraging look “All the traps he laid doere foiled by you – and you were unprepared before you went through theth”

Sheyan said with a bitter suy's scheood news is that it should be impossible for him to use another bomb like the one he planted before Such a powerful both of the current contestants are concerned, is enough to destroy the balance of the realm Even MTs like Reef and I will be easily killed if we're caught in the heart of the explosion Soe requirements like MCDH's 'Let the Bullets Fly' ability, or it uy kill the contestants on the saensha

Sanzi rereat benefit to hi any benefits”

“Although the contestants on the opposing side did not fully complete their mission, they did kill Sarah Connor and Kyle Reese after all Besides, the method Sheyan used to complete the mission was simply too weird The realiven extra time in this world? That is one of the most common form of compensation,” added Reef

“Youhere?” asked Sheyan

Looking out of theof the bus, Zi muttered, “The opponent knows the steps involved in the “seed of divine artifact” mission If – and this is only an assumption – there is a certain step which requires you to collect a certain amount of powerful souls within a limited time, it will explain the action taken by the rated nicely into the teaht, and it's not as if he doesn't get any loot for killing his allies With his ability which appeared as if it could indirectly change someone's destiny, it's absolutely not io about it would be to sow discord a the crowd and let the up the situation!”

Sheyan closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then said, “Let's put ourselves in the shoes of the hts He first followed you guys in the previous world, struck you at the most critical moment, continued to tail you into a second world, then used his Fate-like ability to lay down a powerful trap

“At that point, the mastermind must have felt that his plan was fool-proof Unfortunately, his scheme was foiled by me The key lies in they way he reacted to that failure! A person's perfor When that guy realised that the contestants he had been using were beco uncontrollable, he instantly massacred them to eliminate the problem while it was still in its infancy Then, he laid down another ferocious trap He felt that we could possibly threaten his life, so he immediately returned to the real, because using it, the mastermind could kill three birds with one stone First, he could kill so correctly, the beginning of the mission on the “Seed of Divine Artifact” is closely related to the abandoned warehouse! Third, he could destroy the corpses and by doing so, prevent us froun user, there would've been bullet holes left on the corpses; if he wields a sword, there would've been slash e, cruel, meticulous and prudent person He will never leave any chances for his enemies!” concluded Sheyan

Reef suddenly asked, “How can you tell that he's left the world?”

“If he's still in this world, there would've been all kinds of strange accidents ere dealing with the explosion just now,” said Sheyan seriously

Reef nodded in acknowledgeure out – the motive of the Stockholm party The cost they've incurred so far to do all these things against us must be pretty steep They've chased after us for 2 consecutive worlds as well as used a really precious explosive Is it truly worth doing all this for the “Seed of Divine Artifact” which theyto Zi's doubt, Sheyan said slowly, “I've been thinking about this, and I think I uys to speculate about the reason behind their actions because there are sos you don't know about”

“Tell us,” said Zi with a serious attitude

Sheyan took a deep breath Before his eyes was the bloody figure of the injured Cardinal, the eerie underground reproductive systee conflict between his own Noah Realher ups…

“I think the pursuit of the Stockholm party has a lot to do with my experience in the bloody World The parties affiliated to other realht think that it's a lot less troublesome if they can eliminate me earlier…”

Zi was shocked after she heard Sheyan's words

She contemplated for a while and said, “If that's the case, then the next realht around the corner Do you mean to say that the realm which the Stockholm party is affiliated to is behind their actions?”

Sheyan nodded He spoke slowly but without any hint of hesitation, “It's very possible”

Chapter 986: Follow the Vine to Get to the Melon

(TL: The title is a Chinese idiom which ed after hearing Sheyan's answer

It's one thing to go up against a powerful party, it's another to go up against a powerful party with the support of their realm behind them

But Sheyan said cal Realms should not be able to directly involve theht between contestants- just like Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics If Stockholm party's actions really had the shadow of their realm behind them, I don't think our Noah Real and powerful team like ours should be afforded more opportunities and benefits by the realress would allocate higher annual funding to special forces compared to ordinary troops”

The others felt that Sheyan's words had their merits At that point, the bus stopped and Sheyan stood up Although he was still affected by the ht, and his eyes shone with a peculiar excitement

How could he not feel excited at the prospect of going up against such a formidable eneht unsteadiness in his gait He looked up and saw the huge building of Cyberdyne Syste majestically in front of him Sheyan's heart was filled with a complex emotion The last tiht at that building Now, although the building still gave off a treure out how to squeeze out eles were still full of people and noises Rows of colorful but outdated s lined the streets On the streets, there were quite a nu along to the rhythensha whistled at a woman who looked like Sheva Alomar and walked up to her for a chat Zi walked towards a displayAlthough her expression remained cold and aloof, her eyes burned with lust…no, with desire

Sheyan e Prada handbag, 1978 edition! Wow, a li?”

Meanwhile, Reef looked enahters in an antique shop His eyes were shi+ning as he checked the aze fell on Sanzi as still staring at hihed helplessly and said, “Nohy do I feel like we're the ones froet so it back to the nighththt back into the real world,” Sanzi could not resist telling Reef

Reef's reply turned Sanzi speechless “Ignorance truly is bliss These beauties are so rare in the real world that theythereat pleasure!”

Sheyan and Sanzi could say nothing to that It could be seen froap between the rich and the poor was present everywhere, even in the cold-blooded nightroup finally left the shopping street and headed straight for the Bassaterre Steakhouse that was a hundred metres away from Cyberdyne Systems, albeit a little reluctantly

Mr Vincent's vehicle was luckily parked outside the steakhouse – Sheyan could recognise it at a glance This wasn't yet the era when SUV's were so popular that their annual market share could top 60, so Vincent's cross country jeep really stood out in the crowded parking lot It looked a lot older than before due to the torlect

Sheyan looked around, but unfortunately could not find Mr Vincent a the many diners Since Sheyan he had been arrested here before and Jinkuang was in his usual slu inforhtening aly expressed a strong displeasure towards the cracked leather stools, greasy floor, and the thick grease on the tables When Sheyan suggested a cup of coffee, she si ht that the food and drinks here were probably all tasted by cockroaches before they got to be tasted by huuy with the large beard He hasn't been here for a week, and I don't think he'll ever come back”

After a 17 tip froer to talk to him

“Why? Because the last time he asked for the bill, he found that he'd accumulated a considerable amount of debt in our steakhouse, and Mr Vincent seeed his vehicle here and we never saw hio that the jeep was totally not enough to pay off the debt at all The seats are hard, the shock absorption is poor, and its brakes are horrible – a slight touch and the whole car will screech to a halt Our staff don't like using the car for this very reason The abrupt braking can turn fragile eggs and butter fro the staff to lose bonuses and get a good earful from the boss”

The waitress lost interest in the topic of the vehicle after that She threink at Sanzi and said, “I'll be free at about 3 in the afternoon Maybe we can have a drink at the bar next door?”

“Sure!” Sanzi replied excitedly “Oh no I can't! I' to do this afternoon”

Sheyan stood behind Sanzi with a look of resentment on his face He suddenly realised that Sanzi's htmare worlds may just be the beautiful woot froed to buy Vincent's jeep from the steakhouse owner for 1,000 without much effort The interior of the jeep was almost exactly as it hen Vincent had left it, because it had only been a week since then, and more importantly, nobody liked to drive it at all That was the point that Sheyan found appealing

After circling around the vehicle a few times, Sheyan suddenly squinted his eyes He quickly burrowed underneath the jeep and found an accessory that was visibly out of place The accessory was brand new, and after it was dusted off, its appearance contrasted sharply with the old vehicle parts around it The jeep obviously had just been repaired not too long ago

Sheyan then rued around in the vehicle's interior and finally found a warranty from an auto repair shop called Rohank Power in the trunk The warranty was crumpled like a piece of scrap paper It showed that the jeep had undergone ed a certain accessory at the cost of a few hundred dollars with a three month warranty

Obviously, no matter who the oas, no one would throay a warranty that had not expired yet Following the clue, Party Ace found the Rohank Power auto repair shop two hours and fifteen istration information in the shop, Vincent's address was found

Sheyan could only hope that Vincent had not eles were usually paid annually, the chances of finding their target should be quite high They quickly rushed towards Vincent's residence

Vincent was actually living on the 13th floor of a building, which was an unlucky number in western superstition It seems like he was not a superstitious person

As soon as Sheyan and his party had just stepped out fro was off After experiencing the previous explosion, they were all on high alert and were extremely cautious They instantly scattered and put some distance between each other

The deeper they went, the stronger the chill they felt Sanzi's h They scouted in front of the group with vigor, as if their pace of life recovery was accelerated

Sheyan noticed that the parts of the wallpaper that were in contact with the floor had turned loomy atmosphere of decay Ordinary people loomy, perhaps the residents here would fall sick easily, but contestants would feel a faint killing intent frohest Perceptive Sense in the tearadually sense an intense feeling of death from a spot on the left! If he was not mistaken, that spot happened to be Vincent's ho

“It should be a contestant,” Reef said confidently in the party communication channel

Suddenly, Sanzi's face turned pale He wobbled back a few steps and issued a roan The mice he sent to scout ahead had all burst into meat paste Two trails of blood trickled down his nostrils

I like a water surface, and the wallpaper rapidly peeled off the wall, foriant mouth at least 5 squarescream and bit down at Sanzi!

Zi reacted quickly With a flick of her wrist, a sharp ray of light was shot froer and piercedit in two!

Chapter 987: Reef's Powerful Servant

Zi's Force had been enhanced to a very strong level by now via a lot of powerful equiph she had not transfor Force, even the hard concrete as slashedIt was as if a large electric saw had cut the wall

But the eerie gianteven sharper and ly, and would occasionally stretch out a long, thick tongue which whipped everything around it in a frenzy The whole thing simply exuded a mysterious, eerie vibe

Sheyan pounced forward and shi+elded Sanzi froue, it felt like it was burned by sulphuric acid or fire, hissing loudly A thick scorch ed through it

But what surprised Sheyan the e was riold flame shot out from the old wound on his shoulder and back Apparently, the intense action just now had triggered his old injury

The energy in the forhostly mouth that had pounce forward The mouth immediately uttered a shrill screa forcefully torn apart It instantly turned fade and finally evaporated into nothingness

Sheyan yelled in indignation, “What the hell is this Goddahost as its food! It took y by a fifth, but now it's burning even fiercer than it did in its prime!”

Reef remarked, “That just now should be a type of dark witchcraft that spread froic It's characteristic is that it attacks by using various types of demonic familiars and evil spirits There used to be a ic Because their demonic familiars are all in spiritual forms, ordinary attack methods are not very effective”

“As for the fact that the negative energy in your body becahost, the theory is siy in your body is probably the purest negative energy that can be found in a world of this difficulty Just as the deepest darkness will give birth to light, I suspect that with a catalyst, it's possible to turn the negative energy into a positive energy! The ghost is essentially negative energy itself, but of a ine that it would be absorbed by the negative energy as nutrient”

Sheyan's gnashed his teeth tightly He already broke out in cold sweat “day?”

“There are, but they're very rare,” answered Zi
