Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 848 Its Blood is Black and Yellow
Chakro demonstrated his agreement through his actions.

His figure reappeared in sight, his entire body covered in a fluid that was hard to tell if it was engine oil or coolant. Then he shook himself, and the fluid dispersed, returning him to his original state.

He glanced at the man, said nothing, and clenched his fist!
But Ralph Gabriel blocked it!

In the previous battles, although Ralf was much stronger in terms of raw power, he left most of the main battlefield to "Colossus" Bapus, while he himself stayed on the sidelines, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

At that moment, Chakro threw a punch! He finally stopped waiting for an opportunity and chose to meet it head-on—and he successfully blocked it!

The two separated immediately after the initial contact. After taking the punch, Ralf Gabriel's breathing became slightly erratic, as if someone had hit his chest, making him feel stuffy and uncomfortable.

However, the next second, he licked his lips, seemingly unaffected. His eyes were fixed on the man in front of him, burning with an almost insane light—greed, fear, and an abnormally heightened excitement that dominated the scene.

Song Shi noticed this expression.

No stranger.

Rather, it's more accurate to say we're a little too familiar with each other.

Back in the day, I roamed the world, using my skills to travel the country. I visited, raided, and wrecked countless casinos along the way. Every gambler who got carried away and went all in looked like this before the final result was revealed.

The second stage of the True Spirit is "Going All In".

The closer Ralf gets to the bottom of the valley, the stronger his psionic energy becomes! The more destitute a person is, the more unprecedented power they can unleash!

"The Colossus" Baptiste was killed in battle; "Half-Knowledgeable Fate" Ying Bancheng predicted the odds of victory.
The situation has deteriorated to a dead end.

But the truly great gamblers treat every game as a desperate gamble!

"The art of going all in is having nothing."

Ralph stopped looking at anyone else. An unnatural flush gradually rose on his face, and he murmured excitedly, almost breathless, "The art of gambling."

"It lies in achieving great results with small investments."

Chakro narrowed his eyes and acted without hesitation.

He instantly transformed into a streak of light, striking Ralf and carrying him away into the distance. Ralf laughed wildly, offering no resistance and allowing himself to be pushed along!
Both disappeared into the darkness in the distance. A few seconds later, a tremendous shockwave shattered the darkness, revealing the two figures locked in a fierce collision.

Almost at the same time, everyone else moved as well.

The pupils of Xu Yudu's transformed "coiled dragon" shone brightly, and a claw with overwhelming force slammed towards Ying Bancheng. The latter clicked his tongue, turned around, and thrust out with his sword, forcefully blocking the dragon's claw that was pressing down.

Immediately following, Yvette's offensive descended cleanly and decisively, her psionic energy sweeping over, attempting to forcibly bring her into the "cycle" she had set out for.

At the critical moment, Ying Bancheng uttered a syllable, and a "snap" sound echoed in the deep space, as if a thin membrane had been punctured. Following the calculated and broken "loop" gap, he narrowly escaped.

After this whole ordeal, Ying Bancheng looked quite disheveled.

Yvette Gregory, the current chair of the Committee on Scientific Ethics, is a well-established and highly respected figure. Facing this "sustainable loop," Ying Bancheng estimates his chances of victory to be about 50/50, anticipating a protracted battle.

Moreover, what we are facing now is not just "perpetual loop".

"Factory" Xu Yu knew that the opponent's strength was naturally inferior to his own and Yvette Gregory's, but he was still a worthy fifth ring member.

The fifth ring is about "transcendence".

Both being at the fifth level of the "Transcendence" skill, "Colossus" Bapus was able to go toe-to-toe with Chaklo Vaughn for a while, and Xu Yu, in this battlefield, is playing an even more decisive role. "Yvette."

Yvette Gregory was engrossed in her conversation when she suddenly heard this, and she involuntarily turned her face to the side.

The one speaking was naturally Xu Yudu.

He kept his gaze fixed on Ying Bancheng and said slowly, "Go and support Song Shi's side. I'll take care of things here."

Yvette Gregory frowned slightly.

On the other side of the battlefield, "Key to Space" Brontë and "Darkness" Solomon Beaufort chose to join forces. Their psychic powers merged and complemented each other, creating a vast and bizarre spatial structure called the Dark Domain.

Darkness is its exterior, and bizarre spaces lie within, like a dark forest teeming with endless dangers. A moment's carelessness could lead to being swallowed up by its malice and suffering severe damage.

However, this dark forest is about to face two fifth-ring psionicists.

Paddy Morse, the "Mind Image Regeneration" expert, and Song Shi, the "Southern Dipper" expert, each employed a strategy of gradual progress and relentless attacks. Although they were suppressed and at a disadvantage, they did not suffer too much loss—at least they could hold on for the time being.

This is normal.

With very few exceptions, the battles between the Fifth Ring [True Spirits] are always protracted. Although not as long-lasting as the battle for the [God Throne], they are by no means decided in a short time. Especially when the strengths are similar, the struggle often drags on for a long time.

The current situation is quite clear: Chakro and Ralf are far away from Yuuki and fighting one-on-one.

Yvette had no doubt about the outcome of the battle. Currently, Xu Yu was at the first stage of True Spirit Realm, while Ying Bancheng was at the second stage. The ideal course of action would be for her to stay and fight Ying Bancheng, while Xu Yu rushed to the aid of Paddy and Song Shi.

However, the Dark Domain of Senluo, jointly constructed by Brontë and Solomon Beaufort, was too profound and too vast, severely restricting Xu Yu's superhuman physique, which resembled a nanobot aggregate. Therefore, the best option was for the two of them to stay here and kill Ying Bancheng first!
"Let me ask one more question," Yvette rubbed her temples. "Are you sure?"

Xu Yu didn't say anything.

"Hmph," the current chairman of the Science Ethics Committee snorted unhappily, "You always have this attitude of never giving up."

Xu Yu remained silent.

Ying Bancheng counted on his fingers, muttered a few words to himself, and then chuckled: "Its blood is Xuanhuang Xuyudu, an image of a hidden dragon emerging from the abyss. It's not so easy to come out of there."

He casually snapped the blade off—it was bent beyond recognition after colliding with the dragon's claw. Then, he pulled a string of brand-new, jingling small swords from his pocket.

“But you want to be Pavlo, and I am not Chaklo.”

He sighed, casually pulled off a handle, and held it between his index finger and thumb. He smiled and said...

"I won't do one-on-one, none of you are allowed to leave."

Before she could finish speaking, Yvette Gregory picked up her cane, turned around without hesitation, and rushed toward the other side of the Dark Realm.

Ying Bancheng laughed heartily, following closely behind, and thrust out his sword. Before the wondrous spiritual energy of the fifth ring [Revelation], the "Cycle" principle, hailed as the most troublesome and difficult to deal with in the Enterprise Alliance, revealed numerous intertwined flaws, threatening to be accurately struck by him—

But this tried-and-true tactic was interrupted in an instant.

The bluish-gray scales covering its entire body had somehow all stood upright, coiling around its body. From the darkness emerged a pair of brilliant golden vertical pupils, which coalesced into two points of blazing, molten lava-like light. Then, with horns sprouting from its head and whiskers bristling, the coiled dragon leaped out of the sea like the sun, riding the clouds and soaring into the sky, revealing its ferocious nature!

"I said, you get the hell over here!"
