Chapter 410 - Witchcraft

“Even with such a strong anesthetic, it is fucking useless against you… Seems like I still haven’t been able to grasp the full extent of your potential. No matter, you will be forced into the reward capsule!” Zhan Nan Shan was getting more aggressive, and appeared to be getting more nervous by that fact.

“You planned for such a long time, it can’t be just these tactics?” Liu Gan frowned disappointingly. He was still waiting for Zhan Nan Shan’s big move!

“So you really want to do things the hard way. Then, I can only resort to these uncivilized means! Everyone charge! Force him into the reward capsule!” Zhan Nan Shan ordered the players around Liu Gan.

“Yes, sir!” these soldiers responded as they charged toward Liu Gan with circular weapons.

“You can all go die!”

Right as the soldiers reached within a meter of him, Liu Gan casually waved his hand from left to right. He was masking his [Psychic Shock] with the hand motion; the ability was simultaneously used on the players. In his other hand, Liu Gan readied his greataxe to prepare for the next strike...

The next following series of events surprised Liu Gan; it even surprised Zhan Nan Shan. The soldiers suffered from the ability as they collapsed into fetal positions on the ground. The soldiers kept screaming in pain as they held onto their heads.

They all tore off their gas mask, blood was flowing turbulently from their noses. One by one, the soldiers fell. The soldier’s body were twitching from muscle spasms. They were contorting to different shapes that he had only imagined. The painful expressions the soldiers had on their faces showed that they had lost the will to fight.

“HEY! HEY! HEY! What did you do?” Zhan Nan Shan couldn’t sit still; he couldn’t figure out what Liu Gan had done. Relying on data from the hour-long fight of Liu Gan against Qiu Zi Tao, Zhan Nan Shan thought he had evaluated his enemy’s ability correctly. Not only did the anesthetic gas fail to affect Liu Gan, but a casual wave from his hand was able to cause all the soldiers to suffer. Every soldier lost the ability to fight.

Could it be a never-before-seen type of witchcraft?

“This is so disappointing. I didn’t even start to fight and they are overwhelmed already?” Liu Gan shook his head. It didn’t take long for Liu Gan to figure out how what had happened.

These soldiers had their souls forcefully implanted into the body of the players. Normally, the body would require time to adapt and therapy before full control was attained. It was similar to being going through organ transplant surgery. Even post-surgery treatment would require immunosuppressant drugs to suppress the body from rejecting the new organs. However, Liu Gan didn’t fall for Zhan Nan Shan’s scheme. The soldiers were in no condition to put up a fight.

The new souls contained within the bodies were still highly unstable, but only on a spiritual level. Their bodies wouldn’t have had a problem in a normal fist fight. In fact, they would’ve been quite capable in pressuring Liu Gan if they worked together. The problem was that right before the fight, Liu Gan activated [Psychic Shock]. This was the psychic ability he had obtained in the Island Lake laboratory.

This psychic ability was suitable for weakening an opponent. Against these players with unstable souls, it was like striking their Achilles heel. It caused their souls to lose control by detaching from the body.
