Chapter 1794: Second Pure Land Plan
Relying on his memory, Yuzuri Takishiro swiftly moved through the indoor arena and quickly found the stairs leading underground.
At the same time, an invisible killing intent passed through the walls, following closely behind him. The moment Yuzuri Takishiro stepped onto the last section of stairs, a cold light slashed out from nothingness, striking toward the back of his head!
Yuzuri Takishiro gritted his teeth and quickly raised his long blade behind him, but he couldn't see where the Hidden Assassin was attacking from, and his body was extremely weak. By the time the blade edge grazed his cheek, he had stumbled backward to the center of the underground hollow.
Yuzuri Takishiro looked up at his health bar: [1430/1600]
Originally his health cap was 2100 points, but as his real body's organ failure gradually worsened, his life force rapidly drained, leaving him with only 1600 points. Although he blocked the Hidden Assassin's strike, he still lost a considerable amount of health. His current physical state couldn't support intense frontal combat.
Yuzuri Takishiro spat out a mouthful of blood, steadying himself in the center of the underground space. Glancing at the Hidden Assassin guard walking down the stairs, he gritted his teeth and turned to rush toward the Dungeon where Lin Qiye was!
"Takishiro, are you alright?"
Lin Qiye, having just returned from the brink of death, watched this scene with a grave expression.
Yuzuri Takishiro's lips were pale; he had no time to answer. Ignoring the Hidden Assassin approaching behind him, he directly started the lock-picking minigame. As three roller patterns locked into place, a wooden board materialized beneath him.
"Objective: Complete the 'Klotski' game within thirty seconds by moving twenty wooden blocks of varying sizes to help the 'Cao Cao' escape the trapped formation."
Seeing this prompt, Yuzuri Takishiro's expression didn't change at all. He focused entirely on the complex wooden board before him. A moment later, he immediately began rapidly moving the blocks with his fingertips!
An invisible killing intent rapidly approached from behind!
One second, two seconds, three seconds... When the timer locked at exactly five seconds, Yuzuri Takishiro completed the movement of the final wooden block, and the Dungeon door automatically弹开！
Yuzuri Takishiro didn't think, diving sharply to the side. At the same time, a blade light flashed out from the Dungeon at extreme speed, slashing toward the emptiness behind Yuzuri Takishiro!
Clang—!
Clang—!!
Under the [Absolute Invisibility] ability, Lin Qiye couldn't see the Hidden Assassin's form, nor could he see the blade's trajectory. This blind swing landed on the katana's handle, while the blade's edge left a ghastly gash on his body.
-399999
As a damage notification floated up from above Lin Qiye's head, his health bar instantly emptied by a third. With the [True Damage] skill, each strike from the Hidden Assassin could bypass health bar totals and deal percentage-based damage.
The Hidden Assassin's form was also outlined, and Lin Qiye didn't hesitate—his reverse slash came out instantly!
When the second resonance sounded, the Hidden Assassin was sent flying backward, blood spraying!
-29880
The Hidden Assassin's health bar was instantly cleared.
In less than two seconds, Lin Qiye and the Hidden Assassin each exchanged a blow. The difference was that the Hidden Assassin's strike didn't kill Lin Qiye, while Lin Qiye's single strike directly killed the Hidden Assassin, who was as fragile as paper.
"Seven Nights, are you okay?" Yuzuri Takishiro asked immediately.
"I'm fine... This guy's skills counter me somewhat, but in a one-on-one situation, he can't kill me." Lin Qiye waved his hand.
To prepare for the next [Group Photo] and [Cheer], the two quickly returned to the venue. At the same time, Shen Qingzhu descended from the air.
"Did you finish off both of them?"
"No." Shen Qingzhu shook her head.
"I followed your instructions and circled around the venue. I didn't find any sound equipment or wires exposed on the surface, but I found the main power switch. I crushed it into pieces, but it restored itself not long after."
"Later those two guards caught up. The bald one's invincibility skill was troublesome. I was afraid you two might encounter unexpected situations, so I didn't fight them to the death. I temporarily shook them off by flying."
Shen Qingzhu paused, then continued, "Also, there's something I think you two should see."
"What?"
Shen Qingzhu led the two up to the top of the Gymnasium. Seeing the city ruins around them, Lin Qiye and Yuzuri Takishiro frowned simultaneously.
"The background of this game... is indeed not as simple as it appears." Yuzuri Takishiro spoke thoughtfully.
"Judging from the ground traces, this city should have undergone a carpet missile bombardment." Lin Qiye's gaze carefully examined his surroundings, speaking slowly.
"There are no ordinary people's corpses in the ruins—they were probably evacuated in advance. The tank and fighter jet wreckage is basically all around the perimeter of the Gymnasium, so the target should have been here."
Shen Qingzhu nodded. "I flew to higher ground. Besides this city, the nearby cities were also basically destroyed, but unlike here, it looks like they suffered nuclear strikes."
"Missile carpet bombing and nuclear strikes... Could it be World War?" Yuzuri Takishiro asked in surprise.
"If it were World War, why would those tanks and planes encircle this place?" Lin Qiye pondered for a moment, then continued. "I also found some things in the underground laboratory ruins."
Lin Qiye took out a file from his chest. The file surface was covered with cracks, and in its upper right corner, a photo of a young girl came into view first.
"This is... Aimeimei?" Shen Qingzhu recognized the girl at a glance. Although she looked younger back then, the features were quite similar.
Lin Qiye nodded. "Underneath this Gymnasium was once a secret research institution, dedicated to the study of human emotional energy quantification. Aimeimei was once one of its test subjects.
According to this file's records, Aimeimei's performance in the experiments was quite excellent. Due to her exceptional adaptability to the药剂 and emotional mobilization abilities, the institution even used her as a foundation to develop a brand new plan...
The specific content of this plan wasn't explicitly recorded in this file, but what can be confirmed is that this plan was called... 'Second Pure Land.'"
Upon hearing these four words, Shen Qingzhu suddenly froze and turned to look at Yuzuri Takishiro beside her.
Yuzuri Takishiro stood there blankly.
"Second... Pure Land?"
"That's right." Lin Qiye's expression was somewhat complicated. "Laboratory, potions, Pure Land... These things, you should be very familiar with.
The true background of this game isn't just a simple狂热演唱会. Fundamentally speaking, this is a continuation of the [Human Enclosure]【净土】... and also the continuation of you, the first artificial god who escaped from the [Pure Land]."
