Dark Light Chaser.

Chapter 657 Pulling away
Ai Liang turned around.

I saw two sisters with blank expressions and unfocused pupils.

The current situation is both expected and reasonable.

Ai Liang had long anticipated that the two sisters would be controlled by Yue Yangyan at the crucial moment.

Because if Ai Liang were in Yue Yangyan's shoes, he would have done the same.

"This injury is nothing to you."

Before Ai Liang could speak, Yue Yangyan said, "I wanted to tell you the whole truth, but unfortunately the one in heaven wouldn't allow it."

Yue Yangyan dragged the half-dead magician to the tyrant, his fingers digging into the tyrant's body to extract something.

But for some reason, the tyrant, unlike the magician, showed no sign of pain on his face, as if it wasn't him whose power had been drained.

Ai Liang activated her telekinetic powers to prepare to bounce the two sisters away.

As Yue Yangyan said, he was no longer human and had no vital organs.

Even if you are crushed into a pulp, it doesn't matter. A penetrating wound like this isn't even a scratch, so it's not a big deal.

What's unusual is that the telekinetic powers deliberately went silent when facing the two sisters, watching everything unfold.

Ai Liang's expression finally changed.

"To be honest, judging from your attitude towards the Thousand-Faced Man, I don't want to include you in the plan."

Yue Yangyan raised his hand and implanted the power of the curse into the Tyrant's body, then focused on absorbing the magician's power.

"But as you know, I'm a rather suspicious person, and I won't gamble the future of humanity on someone else's hands."

Rather than believing someone is willing to fight the Apostles with me, I prefer to seize their power for my own use; after all, what's in my grasp is the safest bet.

"So you want to take my power?"

Feeling her spiritual energy draining away, Ai Liang tried to break free of the restraints while testing Yue Yangyan.

Yue Yangyan shook his head: "To seize... that's how it is for others, but for you, I'd prefer to use the word 'merge'."

merge?

Boom!

The isolation layer, which had lost its psychic power, shattered with a deafening roar, and an unparalleled spiritual force rushed straight towards Yue Yangyan.

Faced with this immense spiritual power, everyone present felt as if they were facing the vast starry sky all alone.

The empty, ruthless, and emotionless spiritual force crashed down like a machine executing code instructions.

Ai Liang instinctively mobilized his telekinetic power to form a protective layer in front of him, but for some reason, the telekinetic layer that had been invincible in the past became incredibly fragile.

Faced with such immense mental power, the psychic layer couldn't even last a second.

The mental energy that broke through the protective layer of mental energy surged straight into Yue Yangyan's body.

The lingering aftershocks seeped into Ai Liang's mind.

The manic and chaotic mental energy turned Ai Liang's mind into a complete mess.

Unfortunately, he is currently unable to use his mental power to fight against it.

"hateful……"

Ai Liang covered her head and looked behind her. For some reason, the two sisters seemed unaffected and were still suppressing and absorbing her spiritual power.

Unable to use his mental abilities, Ai Liang could only rely on his willpower to fight against the frenzied external mental forces in his mind.

Fortunately, he had a similar experience ten years ago, which prevented him from losing consciousness immediately.

When her spiritual energy was almost completely drained, Ai Liang's body began to tremble and turn cold.

Ai Liang was somewhat bewildered by her body's reaction; that familiar yet strange feeling seemed like something she had experienced before.

As time went by, he gradually recalled this feeling.

fear.

Fear stemming from the desire to live, the same feeling as those dying people in the memory bank.

This was not a fear conscious of Ai Liang, but a fear instinctively driven by some kind of force.

And this fear gradually began to affect Ai Liang's mental state, making him anxious.

Ai Liang turned to look at Yue Yangyan opposite her. As the main bearer of the attack, this guy was also suffering.

"Has the punishment come?"

Yue Yangyan gritted his teeth and maintained a smile, his body appearing and disappearing as if he were about to vanish at any moment.

"That was... an attack from the Thousand-Faced Man?"

Ai Liang gritted her teeth and mumbled incoherently.

"Yes, because... I... violated... the rules... at the... most... moment of the game."

Yue Yangyan's voice began to become intermittent and was mixed with some kind of noise.

He can no longer see any sense of reality in him; he looks exactly like a projected image.

"In sequence...mutually restraining..."

A low groan was heard.

The magician, barely clinging to life, somehow managed to break free from Yue Yangyan's control.

He clutched his abdomen and shakily walked to the tyrant, who was also imprisoned, and placed his hand on him.

With each passing second, the magician's face aged a year, and before long he transformed from a young man in his late twenties into a middle-aged man in his forties.

"In sequence... cough cough cough... mutually restraining!"

While vomiting blood, the magician activated some unknown ability to release the tyrant from control.

Having done all this, he used his last bit of strength to create a spatial turbulence: "Quick...go..."

Without a word, the tyrant picked up the magician and jumped in.

If they delay any longer, and the heat death and spirits from the outer perimeter arrive, they might really be stuck here forever.

"Escape... or... it doesn't matter... the source... is here..."

Yue Yangyan looked up at the sky again: "It's a pity... I won't be able to see... the... ending of the bet."

Finally, Yue Yangyan turned to look at Ai Liang, or rather, the two sisters behind Ai Liang.

Yue Yangyan raised his arm and reached towards the two sisters' heads, but before his fingers could touch them, his figure completely collapsed and vanished into the wind.

In this world, only Ai Liang and her two sisters remain.

Yue Yangyan's appearance and disappearance lasted less than ten minutes in total, but the consequences of those ten minutes were a major turning point for the survival of the entire human world.

Under the disturbance of mental energy, Ai Liang's mind was completely unable to think.

He relied on instinct to activate his telekinesis, trying to shake off the two sisters behind him.

However, for some reason, the telekinetic power completely disappeared, and no matter how Ai Liang tried to activate it, he could not find any trace of it.

Gradually, the two sisters drained Ai Liang's spiritual energy.

Pfft.

As the curse wore off, the two sisters withdrew their hands from Ai Liang's chest, and their eyes gradually regained their clarity.

"Um...where am I?"

Yue Qihua clutched her dizzy head and looked around, but the next second her eyes widened: "Ai Liang?!"

Yue Qihua subconsciously reached out to Ai Liang, wanting to grab him.

Unfortunately, below is the spatial turbulence that the magician just opened up but hasn't closed yet.

The spatial rift closed automatically the moment Ai Liang fell in, and Yue Qihua lost her last chance to save Ai Liang.

At this moment, the memories of being bound by the curse flooded her mind, allowing her to understand the cause and effect.
