Chapter 2277 I caught you

  Game time PM18:19

[Crime Debate·Team Battle] Competition-specific map, mirror space S5230-4573

Central continent, outside Mirkwood

[Youming, you are a little too far to the left, adjust your position. ]

[Senior Xizhao, please pay attention to your right side. Senior Fangshi can't take care of that side.]

[Senior Fangshi, you are running out of energy quickly, please stay calm.]

[Captain, slow down a bit, you are about to leave Juno's coverage area...]

  Bah!

The moment he lost Lussel's 'beacon', he pulled the trigger without hesitation and shot himself in the temple with the silver musket. A newcomer of the [Wind-Breaking Bird] club, Ling Jie, who was introverted and did his own thing, had a gleam in his eyes and put his captain back into his perception range.

Behind him, a female figure, about three times the size of a normal person and with her face covered in bandages, flashed in the air. Her fluttering skirt created a ripple, and then disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

[Ah, sorry, I'll control this for a moment. ]

Lusail's voice sounded deep in his consciousness, his tone a little embarrassed.

[Everything is fine here. If you need to speed up or change direction, please let me know in advance. I move the slowest. I am running with skills now, which is not easy to control.]

The sound of the sunset resounded deep in my consciousness, sounding a little tiring, but far from exhausting.

【everything is normal. 】

The voice of the underworld sounded in the depths of consciousness, concise, cool and arrogant.

[Thank you. If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have noticed that I was a little nervous. But Lingjie, are you okay with your physical fitness? Is Juno still behaving? ]

The Taoist's voice rang out deep in my consciousness, and there was concern between the lines.

What a strange bunch of guys...

Ling Jie, who was traveling at high speed through the woods, did not answer immediately. Instead, he began to "wander" out of habit.

I am obviously a freak who can't express my emotions.

Mingming dropped out of school to join the youth training just to get away from the boring bullying.

He clearly doesn't know how to handle interpersonal relationships and is not as hardworking as others.

It doesn’t matter if I’m ignored or thrown into a corner, as long as I can listen to music.

Why bother to have people quarreling around me?

Why bother bringing yourself along to play?

What’s more, I have to trust myself until today?

  Why bother dragging yourself to walk with big strides?

It is really incomprehensible how they can enjoy doing something that benefits no one except themselves.

Thinking is annoying...and for someone with Asperger's, it's especially annoying.

But at this moment, perhaps I can temporarily put aside this insignificant autism spectrum disorder, temporarily leave my own world, and without the help of risperidone, sertraline or central nervous system stimulants, do my best to do something for those partners who trust me wholeheartedly.

The so-called burden is not so much that the [archetype of conformity] becomes unstable over time, but rather that there is a problem with one's comprehensiveness, independence and integrity at the spiritual level.

But the problem now is... Ling Jie doesn't want any problems to occur in these aspects of himself.

and so--

"Be quiet, Juno."

The moment he realized that the noise in his head was becoming increasingly harsh, Ling Jie pulled the trigger on his temple again without hesitation to suppress this [archetype of conformity].

Immediately afterwards, Ling Jie heard a system prompt suggesting that he adjust his status or even log off as soon as possible.

So, without hesitation, he chose a method that seemed like drinking poison to quench thirst, and pulled the trigger on himself for the third time, restoring his "health" by "blocking", a method that would cause big problems sooner or later, but at least not now.

Limited health.

Short-lived health.

Ability to bypass system monitoring health.

Health valid for this game only.

There is even a chance that you will ruin your health throughout your career.

"Fuck the Red Constellation."

Normally, Ling Jie, who always looked gloomy and absent-minded, stopped tremblingly, raised his body slightly, and put the silver musket against his chin, and said in a deep voice that was almost a roar: "Today's victory belongs to [Wind-Breaking Bird]!"

  Bah——!

With a crisp gunshot, Ling Jie, who had not suffered any "external injuries", suddenly dilated his pupils, and then he knelt on the spot as if he had lost his soul. In the blink of an eye, his sclera was coated with a large amount of blood and turned a deep red. His health was forced to 1% because of the inexplicable BUFF of [Jung's Curse].

【Hello. 】

[Are you okay? Little ghost.]

[Are you okay? What was that sound just now? ]

【Don’t force yourself! 】

At the same time, the voices of his teammates all rang out in Ling Jie's mind, pulling him out of the deep sea where he was almost drowned by countless 'consciousnesses'.

[Everyone shut up——]

The next second, he conveyed an unquestionable determination to his companions for the first time, then stood up shakily and looked forward with his bloodshot eyes that had never been so clear.

And at the end of this glance are countless dizzying data fragments, which is the edge of this mirror space!

Assuming that we regard ten square meters as a standard coordinate unit, then the effective range of "Juno"'s ability under normal circumstances is approximately 900 standard units in a circular shape with Ling Jie as the center, and the coverage radius is approximately 17 standard units. At this moment, Ling Jie, who has squeezed his ability to the limit, has indeed unlocked the second use of this ability, namely - changing the original circular detection range of 900 standard units into a linear detection range of 900 standard units in length.

The direct consequence of this action was that his 'vision' broke through the edge of the mirror space, and he saw countless data turbulences that almost directly shattered 'Juno'.

Then, Ling Jie staggered to his feet and slowly turned around.

It is worth mentioning that when performing the "circle" action, he still keeps the total area unchanged, but the width is compressed to the extreme "linear" vision.

We can understand it as the ball of thread that was originally piled into a circle being stretched into a line with a length more than fifty times the previous radius, and then this line rotates 360 degrees to form a second circle.

  The area covered by this circle is nearly three thousand times that of the line when it was originally piled together!

"I caught you—"

The next moment, Ling Jie instantly released the state that he had just named "Oracle", and re-activated Juno's ability in the conventional way, once again bringing the four teammates within the coverage of his ability.

[Don't talk yet. I have marked your vision. Follow the markings and use Plan No. 3 that Senior Fangshi has worked out before.]

[Everyone shut up and act now. These markings have a limited time limit.] [I will be the first to engage the enemy. I will use Juno to block the captain's position before that.]

[Senior Fangshi, your final destination is Hanmei. ]

[Sunset senior, your final destination is the pioneer. ]

[Your final destination is bloodstained.]

【I will take care of the gentleman. 】

【We have to win. 】

……

Three minutes later, the mental network woven by Lingjie collapsed due to Juno's uncontrollable disappearance.

The other four members of the [Wind-Breaking Bird] team sped up at the same time, rushing towards the final coordinates that were still in their sight and were slowly fading away. Around Lucelle's body, a layer of film like soap bubbles appeared the moment Juno disappeared.

……

  Game time PM18:27

"Give up, little brother Ling Jie."

The gentleman who had just smashed Juno with at least sixty flying knives and was standing in the air with his hands behind his back said to Ling Jie, who was half-kneeling on the ground, holding his chest and retching, with a leisurely tone, "Although your tricks are interesting, it's still too early to expose them. As long as you are stimulated in a targeted way, this extremely short-lived summoned creature is more fragile than a piece of paper."

Ling Jie raised the silver musket in his right hand with trembling hands, trying to summon Juno again, but when he raised his hand to his shoulder, a flying knife pierced through his palm. He staggered and fell to the ground, and the musket flew several meters away.

"Hahahaha, you're lacking in experience, beautiful fledgling."

The gentleman slowly landed on the ground, opened his hands and laughed, "No matter how promising a rough diamond is, before the day comes when it truly shines, it must be cautious, cautious, and cautious again. And you, my dear fledgling, your dependence on this 'little toy' and that 'summoning' is too obvious."

Ling Jie, whose right hand was nailed to the ground, narrowed his eyes and asked faintly, "So?"

"So even if the captain doesn't come, I'm enough to deal with you alone."

The gentleman leaned on his cane and said leisurely, "If I'm not mistaken, until recently, you were using that interesting summoned creature to cover your teammates' actions, trying to conduct a 'raid' on the four of us including me in a short period of time, aiming to ensure that the remaining forces would not be slaughtered by Xinglong alone after we were all wiped out, right?"

Ling Jie used his left hand to pull out the dagger that was nailed to his right palm. His expression was hard to read because of his overly long bangs. "So what?"

"It's just a fight between trapped beasts."

The gentleman once again produced several flying knives out of thin air and chuckled, "I don't know about others, but at least you picked the wrong opponent. Even if you can kill me, this time is enough for Xinglong to come and kill you head-on. Or do you think your three teammates have completed the mission at this moment? Unfortunately, I didn't hear any system notification sound of any partner being killed."

"It's ok."

Instead of picking up the silver musket not far away, or dodging the eight flying knives thrown by the gentleman, Ling Jie simply lifted his bangs, revealing his right pupil, which had turned pure gold with a black cross mark in the center, and smiled, which chilled the gentleman's body. "Your teammates will soon hear the system notification sound."

[Magic: Phantom Blade Rain]

Without any hesitation, the gentleman immediately raised his cane and used his best trick, increasing the speed, force and number of the eight flying knives in the air by ten times, and inflicting a considerable amount of shadow damage on them.

Then--

"Bury him, Thanatos."

Following Ling Jie's order, without using the silver musket, his second summoned creature... to be more precise, the [Prototype of Conformity] appeared behind the gentleman without any warning.

It was a huge humanoid creature covered in a tattered black cloak with several coffins floating around it. The moment it appeared, both the gentleman and the nearly a hundred flying knives that were less than half a meter away from Ling Jie, all strangely fell into a state of stillness.

The End of Absoluteness

“Ugh—!”

As the monster with the same name as the god of death in ancient Greek mythology stretched out its right claw, the gentleman covered his chest in pain, and tried his best to look up at Ling Jie who was also shaky and almost collapsed, and said in a deep voice: "The price of your move... is?"

"die."

Ling Jie gave a calm reply, and before disappearing in a white light, he replied briskly, "It's a good deal."

"I've suffered a huge loss here."

Although the opponent had disappeared, the gentleman who had lost a third of his heart also smiled bitterly and murmured, "Speaking of which, that guy's movements were a little too slow...?"

After saying this, the gentleman whose health points were reduced to zero also turned into white light and disappeared on the spot.

……

  at the same time

"Ok?"

As always, he was wearing the same black leather trench coat with silver stripes, camouflage shirt, combat pants and long boots. He was tall and well-proportioned. Holding a giant cold weapon with a handle of about 60 cm and a blade of nearly 160 cm, Lusel raised his eyebrows and smiled at Xinglong who suddenly stood still in front of him: "What? It's too late?"

"Well, it's too late."

Xinglong nodded slightly, looked up at the red smoke bomb rising into the sky not far away, which was stained with blood not long ago, and whispered: "This is the fourth one..."

"Yes."

Lusel grinned and said in a light tone, "In other words, your friends seem to have run into some troubles. Is it really okay for you to continue chatting with me leisurely here?"

"That's a huge problem."

Xinglong, who activated [Xuanli Zhuqueyan] and [Mingyin Xuanwu Curse] at the same time, continued to nod and asked Lusel, "So if you don't mind, why don't we just say goodbye and find a chance to chat and learn from each other later?"

Lusail laughed, raised the [Undertaker's Tombstone] held in his right hand, and asked, "Do you think I will agree?"

"I guess you do."

Xinglong turned and left, and the next second he frowned at Lusail who suddenly appeared in front of him and said, "It seems that I guessed wrong."

"you do not say."

Lusail chuckled and said seriously: "The punishment is that you can't go anywhere before you kill me."

"You are worthy of being Captain Lusail. I won't be polite then."

"Well, come on, you're welcome."
