Infinite Terror: Infinite Reversal

Chapter 322 Before Bed
Mu Xiang pushed up his glasses: "So our Central Continent team is actually in a very dangerous situation. Haven't you noticed? There are already three Tier 4 members, while Zheng Zha and I are unable to use Tier 4 gene locks while we are awake... Apart from us, almost all of you have Tier 1 gene locks, although your configurations are not bad."

"But with the increasing difficulty, your improved strength is actually a bit too much to handle. For example, Michael Myers, who can share evolution, would be dead without Zhang Jie's help."

Everyone seemed to be deep in thought, with Zhang Heng nodding repeatedly. After all, he was very clear about the strength of the telekinetic floating cannons; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they were invincible below the fourth rank, and even so, he was finding them somewhat difficult to handle.

"We've long been placed on a very high pedestal by the Supreme God; it's no exaggeration to say we're in a bind," Mu Xiang said. "So we've long since run out of options. All we can do is keep getting stronger, until we die, or break free from this cycle!"

That was a cliff with no way back... Zhang Heng couldn't help but hum aloud, but the atmosphere wasn't quite right.

As he spoke, Mu Xiang looked at Liu Xi and said, "As for what you said, that you took too much... I wonder if it was the arrangement of the main god, which is very necessary for us."

"How to say?"

Mu Xiang's gaze swept over everyone: "The next horror movie will be a team battle. It's certainly a good thing to improve your strength before the team battle."

Zhang Jie was taken aback: "Team battle? The only ones who can be our opponents are those two special squads, right?"

That's right... even the East American team can't do it.

Mu Xiang looked at the large ball of light in the sky, seemingly lost in thought. He said calmly, "The next horror movie is 'Resident Evil 2,' a team-based horror movie... In addition, the main god has another notice: we will postpone our entry."

"In other words, the Supreme God has determined that we are stronger than the other side."

Zheng Zha laughed upon hearing this: "That makes things easier..."

Mu Xiang smiled noncommittally, then looked at everyone: "Everyone has gained a lot this time, right? You can think about what you want to exchange for first, and we can discuss it over dinner tomorrow. If you need more, please contact Zhang Jie first."

Zhang Jie nodded happily, put his arm around his wife, and prepared to go home.

So the show ended.

As Liu Xi passed by Mu Xiang, she whispered, "It seems you don't agree?"

Mu Xiang didn't speak, he just nodded slightly.

Let them get some rest first...

Back in his room, Mu Xiang washed up and prepared to sleep, but as he lay in bed, he was still deep in thought.

"There's a 10% chance they'll be fighting other teams... most likely the Demon Team, that shouldn't be a problem. After all, if we're talking about the Demon Team as the main characters, that 'author' will definitely write about how the Demon Team wipes out the Central Continent Team." Mu Xiang looked at the ceiling and muttered to himself, "It's not surprising that the Demon Team is judged to be weak... but this isn't a good thing."

"The Demon Team will most likely have two Tier 4 members, and less likely three... The two Tier 4 members are the clones Zheng Zha and Zhao Zhuikong. As for the clone Li Xiaoyi, with the 'author's' blessing, even if he's trash, he should still be at the Tier 3 level, and perhaps even have the classic half-step Tier 4 setting."

“It’s unlikely that Li Xiaoyi is a fourth-tier fighter, because our average team members might not be as strong as the Demon Team. According to the original description, there are at least two second-tier melee fighters… The performance of the rest can make up for the difference in equipment. Although, in any case, the number and strength of the fourth-tier fighters on the other side are no match for us, one less is better than one more.” “Hmm… The Demon Team in the original story has ten members: the clones Zheng Zha, Chu Xuan, Zhao Zhuikong, Tom, Amy, Ming Yanwei, François, Dechai, Nochard, and Frodo.”

"Frodo is the lecherous ghost whose head was chopped off by the clone Zheng Zha, hehe... As for Ming Yanwei, she may have been copied by the 'author,' or she may not have. It depends on how strong the 'author's' influence is on the Demon Team's main god. At least the 'author' doesn't know that this Zhang Heng is not that Zhang Heng, and that Ming Yanwei didn't join the Central Continent Team."

"Considering the 'author's' own original work, the Demon Team should have around eleven members, with some fluctuation..."

Mu Xiang sighed: "In terms of strategy alone, if we have an intelligence advantage, I wouldn't dare say we can beat the clone Chu Xuan, but we won't lose either... But the Demon Team entered first, which is not good news."

"It's definitely not a good thing to let a wiser person than me gain 'power'..."

"In addition, the role played by Li Xiaoyi must also be taken into consideration... According to the formula of this kind of fan fiction, Li Xiaoyi will definitely not be able to hide anything from Chu Xuan. He won't even be able to stuff in false information. He will just kneel down and surrender, revealing everything about time travel and the script."

“But this is not very meaningful.” Mu Xiang said calmly after a moment of silence.

Looking at the dark ceiling, Mu Xiang revealed a hint of sarcasm: "Don't even mention that the current Zhongzhou team is completely different from the original one, and Li Xiaoyi has no intelligence advantage... Even if our configuration and strength are the same as the original Zhongzhou team, his intelligence advantage is just a false proposition."

"He doesn't even know what my situation is, which is the biggest variable. With his intelligence... without Chu Xuan's analysis for him, he probably wouldn't even understand how I schemed against him... even if the scheme was as simple as just taking advantage of his habits. In other words, the clone Chu Xuan at most knows that I exist, and knows nothing else."

"And even if we take a step back and assume that all my information was given to the clone Chu Xuan, so what? With me around, how could the Central Continent Team possibly follow the original script... Li Xiaoyi's role in intelligence is practically zero."

In fact, Mu Xiang had seen many similar comments when he browsed the forum, such as not letting the clone Chu Xuan know the script, etc. Mu Xiang scoffed at them.

That's ridiculous. Even if there's a Li Xiaoyi on the other side who knows the plot and tells the clone Chu Xuan, so what? Does that mean I should just follow the original plot?
For example, if your competitor has reviewed the same key questions as you before an exam, would you skip the exam?

madness.

"Li Xiaoyi's greatest contribution to the Demon Team is probably his third to fourth tier combat power, which he seems to have gained through cheating... But that's not a big deal. If any one of the three of us blocks him, he'll only be defeated. As for helping the Demon Team with team building or side quests... he probably doesn't even know what horror movies the Demon Team has been through, so it would be a miracle if he could help them."

"Aside from the layout of the clone Chu Xuan... the most troublesome thing is actually the role of the 'author'."

At this point, Mu Xiang reached under the pillow and touched something, then revealed a knowing smile.

"Sure enough, this is the anchor point I set. All I need to do is give it to Zheng Zha... Although I have to have this sudden realization every time I go to sleep, it's a last resort."

"Regarding countering that 'author'... Chu Xuan and I had already made plans. In that case, our experience of returning to Resident Evil was also part of this plan."

"Hehe, 'author,' snake, hehe..."

Mu Xiang withdrew his hand, and a part of his memory was immediately missing, but he was not surprised... Then he closed his eyes and fell into a peaceful sleep.
