Infinite Terror: Infinite Reversal

Chapter 354 Maybe

"Have they entered the formation's range?" Li Xiaoyi stood behind Chu Xuan, looking at the large screen above, and asked coldly.

Chu Xuan said without turning his head, "We've entered, and we have indeed divided our forces in the way that is most advantageous to us..."

"Then why haven't they activated the formation yet?" Li Xiaoyi asked in a low voice, "They're doing exactly what we planned!"

Chu Xuan sneered and pointed at the screen, saying, "I've pulled up the cameras along their route for you. Take a look for yourself."

Zhao Zhuikong stood not far away, seemingly leaning leisurely against the wall, but upon closer inspection, his posture was actually without any support. It was as if he were standing on one leg against the wall, but he was simply playing around with his extremely strong body control.

Hearing Chu Xuan say this, the handsome young man with long hair said jokingly, "Hey, Chu Xuan, how many times have I told you, don't always assume others are like you... The entire city's surveillance information is piled up on the screen, how could we possibly understand it?"

"Is that so?" Chu Xuan adjusted his glasses. "This is just within the realm of mortal wisdom; there are no particularly high requirements."

"Yes, yes, then please tell me, what does my little cousin want?" Zhao Zhuikong yawned. "Although there is that consciousness differentiation you mentioned, I don't want to use it for watching big screen surveillance... that wouldn't be romantic at all."

Chu Xuan said calmly, "Since you don't understand, let me explain... The wise man from the Central Continent team is coming this way with four people, along with Alice; Zheng Zha from the Central Continent team is leading another team, and they seem to be heading to meet up with Jill. Your cousin is still in their car, so I don't recommend you go directly there."

Zhao Zhuikong smiled and said, "No problem... If the wise man from the Central Continent Team comes straight at you, I'll have no choice but to take action."

At this point, Zhao Zhuikong seemed to have thought of something, and a strange look appeared on his face: "You mean, the captain of the Central Continent Team isn't really the kind of wise man who charges after setting a plan? Just like when the captain was simulating you."

Chu Xuan paused for a moment, as if he had thought of something: "Although I need them to come... I don't think so."

"That's true, people like our captain are rare after all." Zhao Zhuikong chuckled, and it was clear he wasn't just joking; he genuinely wanted to laugh...

Li Xiaoyi, however, was not joking at all. He stared intently at the screen, then realized he couldn't understand it. Just as he hesitated whether to ask Chu Xuan, Chu Xuan spoke up: "I still advise you to calm down... I don't expect you to provide much help, but if you hold us back, you should understand the consequences."

“The Central Continent team may split up again... This is within the prediction.” Chu Xuan reached out and started typing on the keyboard, and the Raccoon City map in the middle of the screen began to change rapidly. “Then let’s proceed as planned, with the three of you each leading a team to attack. Once the formation takes effect, Li Xiaoyi and Peng Qiu should be able to hold off a fourth-tier enemy without any problem... Zhao Zhuikong, don’t linger too long, come back immediately after you complete the objective.”

Li Xiaoyi's increasingly ugly expression was becoming increasingly difficult to conceal. He snorted angrily, "The sooner the formation is activated, the greater the increase in Peng Qiu's combat power will be. I don't understand why you keep dragging this out..."

Chu Xuan adjusted his glasses, his emotions remaining completely calm: "Because you can't see it. The Central Continent Team may have already seen through this layer. Even with the split teams, they haven't revealed any major flaws... Next, they might send one of the split teams to leave Raccoon City with the story characters. With the other two teams both at the fourth level, we have no chance of a quick victory."

"Isn't it easy to send Zhao Zhuikong to intercept them?" Li Xiaoyi said impatiently. "They have two fourth-tier members, and we don't have any fewer... even more after the formation takes effect!"

"You just said that as long as the Central Continent Team sees us, we've won... But I'm different. I'll make them wish they were dead!" With that, Li Xiaoyi slammed the door and left. Zhao Zhuikong watched the door close with a smile, but his eyes were full of coldness: "Is this kid on drugs? He hates this much... It was his own lack of strength back then, how can you blame the Central Continent Team? Or is it that he's about to enter the fourth tier and is losing control?"

"Maybe." Hearing Zhao Zhuikong's joking remark, Chu Xuan replied calmly, "These kinds of things are beyond our control."

"Alas, can even a wise person tolerate things beyond their control?"

“Things have their own inertia, and once they start, it often takes a lot more effort to stop them… Rather than struggling to stop them, it’s better to go with the flow,” Chu Xuan said calmly. “This applies to things related to him, and it applies to things related to you as well.”

"Hahaha... Well said, no wonder I enjoy working with you so much."

"Excellent."

Meanwhile, Zheng Zha finally met Jill and Terry, who had escaped with him. Although Zheng Zha was familiar with her, both in the movie and in previous horror films, this Jill did not recognize him.

It took Zheng Zha quite a while to finally explain his identity to Jill... They were released by a Zheng Zha with scars on his face, and then they encountered a Zheng Zha who was almost identical to him except for not having scars. This was something that the two of them found hard to accept.

Fortunately, Alice and Jill connected via communicator, which temporarily eased Jill's guard and made her agree to get in the car.

"Wait, that female reporter... there's something wrong with the camera she's holding." Zhang Jie's voice rang in Zheng Zha's mind. "Be careful."

"What's wrong with me?" Zheng Zha thought to himself, "Anyway, I'm the one who always ends up getting burned."

Zhang Jie thought for a moment and then laughed, "Okay, just ask her for the camera."

After saying that, Zhang Jie added, "If this move weren't so deeply related to mental strength, I probably wouldn't have been able to detect it..."

Zheng Zha was puzzled, so he smiled at Terry and said, "Can I take a look at the camera? I need to check what's going on with you."

Without much hesitation, Terry handed the camera to Zheng Zha: "I can't film things that are too direct..."

The moment Zheng Zha reached for the camera, a dangerous premonition immediately rose in his heart. The next moment, he threw the camera directly into the empty space.

Before Jill and Terry could even utter their gasps, the camera collapsed inwards, the metal between the plastic frames instantly solidifying into a small sphere, which then suddenly expanded into a small, sharp cone, piercing straight into Zheng Zha's eyes!
But Zheng Zha's strength and reaction speed were so great that the camera was thrown quite far away in an instant. As the cone cut through the air, a terrifying high temperature erupted in the air. Without any conspicuous flames, the cone was directly melted into nothingness.

This is the Demons' first attack!
