Chapter 2884: Riding a Tiger
Xu Huo's three other personalities could appear anywhere in the library tower at any time. They didn't need to leave the room; simply by shuttling arbitrarily through the doors, they could effortlessly kill those players who were terrified.
As for the Holy Sword Society and Hundred Forest Society members, anyone who could be killed was not spared. On the other hand, Xu Huo showed some mercy to the Enforcement Team, cutting off their arms or legs to give them a slim chance of survival.
The coverage of "Sky Light Domain" was too vast, and more players from the Capital Mansion were rushing over. Xu Huo slowed down the movement speed of the library tower, pretending to be struggling to sustain it. When more players arrived, he withdrew his spiritual realm.
But in the next second, with the assistance of "Cube Space," he pulled up strips of space entity bands across the villa district.
The sudden change in space made the later-arriving players stop, because besides the space entity bands, Space Ray Blades were wedged into every gap, filling the entire space. The lethality of Space Ray Blades was already considerable, let alone on this scale. As long as they entered, these space powers would relentlessly attack their defense barriers until they were completely dissolved!
At the same time, the players who had escaped from the library tower distanced themselves from Xu Huo while throwing out items. But with his mental and spatial evolution at this level, unless their items and instruments were fast enough that he couldn't react at all, it was impossible to kill him, especially under conditions of spatial obstruction.
Because of their actions, Xu Huo released a section of space entities in advance. A large amount of space power erupted, and several Holy Sword Society players were stabbed to death on the spot—choosing not to use their tickets to escape immediately was a judgment error on their part, and this error cost them their lives.
Yet this was still not Xu Huo's limit. Even if the space entities exploded once, they could appear in groups again in the next second, stretching for thousands of meters. This entire area, this entire space, was occupied by condensed space power!
"Deploy the jamming devices." Among the later-arriving players, a Holy Sword Society member with hair reaching her legs instructed her companions.
Several trumpet-shaped jamming devices activated around Xu Huo. The space entities and Space Ray Blades he had pulled up quickly began to loosen, showing signs of slow deconstruction.
At that moment, another player stepped forward. His long sword slashed horizontally and vertically at Xu Huo. In an instant, the space targeted by the blade was cut into several layers and several pieces, like a cake!
Xu Huo was within the range of this spatial slash. He moved slightly and used a jamming device to disrupt the power of the slash. But in the next second, a player flashed behind him like a ghost, and without any warning, stabbed two fingers toward his heart!
By all logic, this strike should have succeeded, because Xu Huo had no time to react. No matter how strong he was, slow speed would be fatal… However, the player's hand only pierced through the two layers of defense barriers outside his body, finally stopping at his clothes.
Protected by "Immortal Passerby A 2.0," Xu Huo only took half a step back. In the next second, "Green Moss" and the white materialized object simultaneously swept toward the person in front of him!
"Bang!" The Holy Sword Society player spread both hands, catching "Green Moss" and the materialized object blade respectively. The long blade couldn't be changed, but the materialized object could. However, just as the spiritual power moved along his arm, a transparent film emerged on the man's body. It detached and directly enveloped the spiritual power inside—the spiritual power couldn't break through this seemingly thin barrier!
Xu Huo withdrew his blade and quickly moved through the air. The man didn't pursue, but from his frequently shifting eyes, it was clear his vision could keep up with Xu Huo's movements.
Soon, two more Holy Sword Society players joined in. One of them snapped his fingers, and the shielding item Xu Huo carried shattered instantly.
"A B-level player?" Without the item's concealment, Xu Huo's physical condition was exposed to everyone's view.
Generally, players who could rise to A-level had definitely consumed a lot of evolution agents. Even if they spent less time leveling up, they would still have taken drugs to reach over 90%. At that level, even if their bodies hadn't undergone super evolution, their physical fitness and speed would have reached their personal limits. This limit state was easy to identify.
Xu Huo's physical fitness looked good, possibly having undergone super evolution. But judging from the natural healing state of his wounds, he was still a bit lacking compared to a true A-level player. Moreover, given his dual-direction evolution level, he should have a higher ceiling than ordinary A-level players.
At this moment, everyone present had grim expressions.
It wasn't because they were surprised that a B-level player could be this strong, nor because they were shocked and unwilling that their companions had died at the hands of a B-level player. Rather, it was because Xu Huo, at B-level, had already developed his mental and spatial abilities to a degree that many A-level players with the same evolution couldn't reach. This proved his talent far exceeded ordinary people. Moreover, he was wearing so many items and instruments, each one top-notch. Among the A-level players here, who could casually pull out ten or twenty A-level items? And use them without regard for cost?
High talent meant his future could potentially rival super players.
Deep resources meant he was likely a genius cultivated by a major player family.
Not to mention how many players and how much money his family could throw around; he might even have connections with some super player!
The Holy Sword Society and the District Government had already prepared the Non-Game Area Simulator, but they began to hesitate about killing Xu Huo.
While they were confident they could kill him, the Holy Sword Society members gathered here couldn't bear the potential consequences.
Looking at the situation, the Enforcement Team members were missing limbs but still alive, while every single member of the Holy Sword Society and Hundred Forest Society had been shown no mercy.
The Holy Sword Society was somewhat fine—after all, they had offended quite a few players, including super players. But since they had settled in A49-033, their strength was absolutely not to be underestimated. The members present just couldn't make a decision. In another district, they might not think so much, but this was 033. If Xu Huo died here, it would mark this place.
As for the Hundred Forest Society, they regretted so much they wished time could flow backward. Continuing to fight would bring even greater losses, but stopping now also meant heavy losses. No matter whether they compromised or not, they had suffered a huge loss—unless the Holy Sword Society and District Government really killed Xu Huo…
"How did it get like this?" A group of people descended from a parked aircraft in the distance. The leading young man frowned at the devastation on the ground. "How much money will it cost to repair this!"
"Master Shui." The long-haired woman approached.
The young man nodded, looked around, and then said, "I just went to pick up a friend. I got the news halfway and rushed over. The case hasn't been investigated yet. How could you act rashly to arrest someone? Our 033 District has always been about friendly coexistence with people from different districts. What you're doing is bringing shame to the District Government!"
