Infinite Terror: Infinite Reversal

Chapter 415 Reasons
Mu Xiang's voice rang out in the air: "We've finally met... clone Chu Xuan."

"You know me very well." The clone Chu Xuan turned around, looked at Mu Xiang who had descended from the sky, and said indifferently.

"Of course I'm familiar with him, that's why I think you have ulterior motives." Mu Xiang sneered. He stood a few steps away, but the clone Chu Xuan had no chance of escaping.

Even if all the main characters in the story suddenly die and the mission conditions change immediately, the clone Chu Xuan wouldn't have time to be teleported away... Mu Xiang was confident of this.

Mu Xiang scrutinized the clone Chu Xuan; before his X-ray vision, nothing the clone Chu Xuan was hiding could be concealed. However, when he saw through that one thing, a hint of disappointment appeared in Mu Xiang's eyes.

"That's all...?"

A cross lay quietly inside the replica of Chu Xuan's abdomen, prompting Mu Xiang to chuckle sarcastically: "How did you get this in there? Sewed in? Swallowed? It couldn't have gone in from behind, could it?"

The clone Chu Xuan adjusted his glasses: "If you're just retelling a joke, then I'm afraid you'll be disappointed... You know that the point at which I was copied was the instant I entered the Main God Space."

Mu Xiang pushed up his glasses: "That's true... Although I know you're a clone, I still treat you as Chu Xuan."

As he spoke, a blurry light and shadow enveloped the clone of Chu Xuan completely: "So, why did you make this arrangement?"

Mu Xiang knew that Chu Xuan was a person who had transcended base desires... For him, even survival was a base desire. Mu Xiang absolutely did not believe that the clone Chu Xuan's scheme was merely to allow him to escape with the Rebirth Cross.

The clone Chu Xuan said coldly, "I have my reasons for doing this."

"You haven't really become the snake and the author's lackey, have you?" Mu Xiang's voice carried a hint of murderous intent, as well as... some suspicion.

Before the clone Chu Xuan could reply, Mu Xiang continued, "Yes, to the Demon Team, you might be even more important than Zheng Zha... As long as you're alive, the Demon Team won't be wiped out."

"But how do you think you can escape?"

The clone Chu Xuan's expression remained unchanged. He said coldly, "There are wins and losses in any strategy... Your strategy is too stable, and it's not surprising that you can't understand my thoughts. But how can you stop before the end?"

"Even if you have an absolute advantage, didn't the Zhongzhou team still suffer casualties due to my strategy?"

A flash of anger crossed Mu Xiang's eyes, but he laughed instead: "Yes, you're right... I was somewhat prepared, but I didn't expect that there would be so many casualties before the victory."

The clone Chu Xuan adjusted his glasses: "So what are you going to do next? I have nothing to say about this ending."

Mu Xiang shook his head: "It's nothing complicated. It seems you won't play any tricks with me about exchanging benefits... and I won't leave you any room for that either."

The boundless sword energy that had sealed off the surroundings slowly receded, and Mu Xiang's eyes flickered: "Farewell."

"Farewell." The clone Chu Xuan nodded and replied calmly.

Without the author's endorsement, the aftereffects of overusing the power of belief were fully manifested in him... Although at first glance there was no difference, Mu Xiang could see that the clone Chu Xuan's physical functions had weakened to an unbelievable degree. The next moment, the clone Chu Xuan's body dissipated in the mist composed of wisps of sword energy, cut away without a trace. What remained was only a spatial bag, a blood kiss exactly the same as the one on Zheng Zha's hand, and a cross badge reflecting a faint light.

Mu Xiang reached out and grabbed two storage items and the cross-shaped seal... He wouldn't leave any loopholes; the clone Chu Xuan was clearly really dead.

Following the guidance of the main deity, Mu Xiang contacted Zhang Jie in his mind: "Did you receive the team bonus notification?"

After receiving a positive reply, Mu Xiang shrugged and then put away the space bag and the cross badge.

He had assumed that the clone of Chu Xuan would commit suicide before he arrived, then use some kind of device to teleport the body to an unknown location, and revive back in the Main God Space five minutes later. Although this method was humiliating, at least it meant survival... rather than relying on luck by placing the Rebirth Cross inside his body.

Even if the clone Chu Xuan didn't know his speed and X-ray vision, did he not know that the Central Continent Team had a fourth-level mental power controller?
Looking at the energy beams still erupting in the distance, Mu Xiang frowned, then turned and flew towards the Central Continent Team.

A moment later, he appeared above the heads of the Central Continent Team. The slightly ethereal Zhang Jie looked up and laughed, "Did you take care of that guy?"

Mu Xiang nodded: "That's right... but something still feels off, let's get out of here quickly."

Upon hearing Mu Xiang's words, the remaining members of the Zhongzhou team were startled and exchanged glances.

"Don't make that face..." Mu Xiang sighed, "Didn't you suffer before? If you weren't all so strong, his backup plan could have really turned the tide."

As he spoke, Mu Xiang turned his gaze to the two-colored pillar of light shooting straight into the sky to the west. Despite being restrained by telekinesis, the Umbrella Corporation's buildings still collapsed by the violent tremors of the ground. It was only thanks to the incredible size of Raccoon City and the energy suppression by Zhang Jie and others that the city was spared; otherwise, not only the Umbrella Corporation, but the entire city would have been torn apart by this terrifying power.

"If I'm not mistaken... that should be the Magic Cannon." Mu Xiang pushed up his glasses.

Zhang Jie was taken aback: "Magic Cannon?"

However, he didn't ask anything like "Is it that awesome?" because the answer was obvious... If he were hit head-on, even a fourth-tier beginner level expert probably wouldn't be able to stop it.

"By annihilating and offsetting high-quality positive and negative energy, we can achieve an effect far greater than the sum of its parts... Zheng Zha of the Demon Team also used this method to enhance his physical strength. And judging from the current intensity, this magic cannon is far from complete, otherwise none of you would have survived," Mu Xiang said.

Liu Xi frowned: "At least before, with my calculation ability alone, I couldn't interfere with that energy... If it's the complete version you mentioned, with your calculation ability added, is there a chance?"

Mu Xiang shook his head: "I don't know."

He glanced again at the seemingly endless burst of energy: "If it's the complete version, its level is at least the advanced fourth tier... and the energy clash between the clone Zheng Zha is ideally the same as the complete version of the Magic Cannon. Zheng Zha, how do you feel about the strength of your clone?"

Zheng Zha was taken aback. His expression had been rather unpleasant, and it was unclear what he was thinking. When Mu Xiang asked him, he hesitated for a moment before replying, "He's quite strong... Without unleashing the power of my inner demons, I'm not confident I can defeat him."
