Chapter 63 Someone Has to Die

The middle-aged man was extremely fast, even faster than Xiang Yu, who was at the Agility E+ level. He arrived at Xiang Yu's location in the time it takes to breathe.

Ai Baiwu reacted for a moment, and was about to warn Xiang Yu of the danger when the other party was already in front of him, his fist about to hit Xiang Yu's face.

It’s over.

Even from several meters away, Ai Baiwu could feel the powerful and heavy force of the punch. In his eyes, this middle-aged man was like a lucky charm; if he touched him, he would be smashed into a bloody mist.

"Big brother!"

But Xiang Yu was not panicked. He just silently watched the fist gradually approaching him. He knew that he couldn't dodge it with his body at this time, as the opponent was several times faster than him.

But why is he hiding?

Xiang Yu opened his mouth slightly. He had just taken a breath, and now that breath rushed through his trachea to his mouth like an arrow, piercing straight towards the other's fist!

That's right, he compressed the energy stored in his body into the air in his lungs, so that he could launch a counterattack without making any movement.

He used a saturation attack on this air arrow, the energy of which was roughly equivalent to ten hand grenades exploding simultaneously.

"boom!"

The air arrow, or rather, the air cannon, was like a real cannonball, effectively withstanding the middle-aged man's attack and even pushing him back. The man's burly figure was now like a butterfly in a strong wind, being blasted around and flung about in disarray.

The fist that came into direct contact with the air cannon was also blasted open, revealing the bare white bone beneath the skin.

"Wow, it's really tough. I thought it would blow my hand off—but it's just a superficial injury." Xiang Yu was also surprised. He had compressed such a large amount of energy into the air cannon, but it only caused this little damage.

This guy definitely has impressive fighting skills.

I could certainly deliver a fatal blow on our first meeting and gain a small advantage with my strange abilities, but if we were to really get into a prolonged fight, the outcome would be uncertain.

However—

Why fight at all?

"Hey buddy, we've actually fought before, remember?" Xiang Yu said loudly as he used the recoil to back away and create some distance.

"You've fought me? You and me?" The middle-aged man frowned. "I have no recollection of such a thing."

"Then you definitely don't remember—because she's not the only one who can control memories," Xiang Yu said with a smile.

"What?!" The middle-aged man was shocked.

Xiang Yu shook his head: "It seems none of you have noticed—actually, there are hardly any physical ghosts that appear at night."

"No? Then where did that ghost that wrecked the hospital come from?" The middle-aged man frowned. "Don't try to fool me with your bluster."

"Oh—you mean that ghost? Isn't it right in front of me?" Xiang Yu's tone was very calm, and he said something quite extraordinary with an air of nonchalance.

"Um?!!!"

The three people present, except for Xiang Yu, were all shocked. They quickly scanned their surroundings again and again, but they couldn't see a single ghost.

The middle-aged man felt he had been tricked, so he scoffed, "What's the point of you trying to gain this verbal advantage?"

"Ah—I'm not lying to you, that guy who smashed up the hospital is really right in front of me." Xiang Yu pointed to the middle-aged man's face, "and right here."

"What? The place you're pointing to only has me there—"

'

The middle-aged man then realized what Xiang Yu was saying, and his clothes were instantly soaked with cold sweat, his pupils constricting.

That so-called "ghost" —

It was actually his past self, but he lost his memory of that time, which is why he felt that he didn't do it!

No wonder, no wonder its destructive power was comparable to mine, no wonder the destructive effect was no different from mine personally!

Upon learning this, Jiang Ning, who was standing nearby, couldn't stand it any longer. She immediately scolded him sharply, "Don't listen to his nonsense! He's just saying these things to affect your mindset!"

The middle-aged man managed to regain his composure for the time being. Although what Xiang Yu said was terrifying, he didn't have time to think about it carefully now. The more he thought about it, the more likely he was to fall into a passive position.

So—just keep fighting!

The middle-aged man stepped on the ground, and the bricks and stones instantly shattered into gravel; with a gentle stomp, dust filled the air.

Amidst the bursting and scattering dust, a figure suddenly burst out of the dust cloud, its speed so great that the resulting gust of wind instantly dispersed the smoke and dust.

The middle-aged man appeared in front of Xiang Yu in the next moment.

"Oh well, say whatever you want." Xiang Yu wasn't in a hurry. Seeing that the other party had already rushed in front of him, he simply spread his hands and said, "The facts won't change because of your blind faith, just like—"

"Actually, the day hasn't gotten shorter; I've just erased your memories."

"!"

The middle-aged man was startled, his mind went blank, and his punches went completely awry. After throwing a punch, Xiang Yu simply tilted his head slightly to dodge the attack that was enough to smash his head open.

For example—

Unbeknownst to them, Xiang Yu had already arrived beside Jiang Ning, and the middle-aged man realized that his position had also changed in an instant, now standing next to Xiang Yu and Jiang Ning, but he didn't notice, as if this period of time had been deleted.

No, it's not that I didn't notice—it's that the memory has disappeared!

"—Do you believe me now?"

Xiang Yu blinked: "Actually—"

In an instant, he disappeared and appeared behind the middle-aged man.

"This dialogue ————"

He then darted behind Jiang Ning again.

"We've repeated it many times."

Then, he reappeared in front of the middle-aged man: "But unfortunately, I have to explain it to you again every time."

.

"You won't forget this time, will you?"

The middle-aged man was already drenched in sweat.

But he still didn't give up, and continued to ask, "Since you have such terrifying abilities, why bother scheming against us?"

Why not just take action directly?

"Sigh—looks like you've been led astray by that woman, you haven't understood one thing," Xiang Yu said slowly, "Why should I take action? Aren't we teammates?"

"We should help each other. No matter how capable someone is, they still need the help of others."

"I don't understand why they always have to kill each other."

"Hmph, stop pretending!" Jiang Ning said coldly from the side. "The total number of points a world gives us is fixed. The fewer people who survive in the end, the more points the survivor will get."

"I got to where I am today by surviving the cutthroat world of deceit and treachery—" Jiang Ning said viciously. "Unlike you, I don't possess formidable combat power. My initial strength was only E-rank!"

"If it weren't for all this scheming and deception, I would have died long ago—"

"I want to survive, I want to become stronger, I must become stronger!"

"How can I survive in the next world without gaining more points!"

Jiang Ning angrily shouted at Xiang Yu, "So—"

"You have to die."
