Element 2 stood up: "Because we want to protect against the intrusion of those rule entities and mutations."

Nothing is a better defense than human numbness.

Those monsters were created by the combination of human emotions and fragments of rules. Human numbness is like a fog rising before their eyes, or something they hate, so they won't come here.

The more numb one's emotions are, the stronger their inertia towards the rules, and the less likely they are to undergo any changes.

That's why he designed this special area, putting nearly ten million people in the back alley into a state of extreme numbness, and then using instruments to amplify their numbness, creating this protective shield.

Li Xia's pupils contracted, and the doubts in his heart were finally completely resolved at this moment.

No wonder he felt that the back alley area was extremely abnormal.

With their technological means, they could easily feed so many people, yet they let them rot and die like garbage on the outskirts.

Because they are consumables, they are materials, they are the walls that make up the entire shelter.

What Li Xia found laughable was that, despite being the ones who had blocked the monsters on the outside as human shields, they were the least important, like a lump of mud.

Yuanxu No. 2 roared, pointing at the corpse above:

"Do you know what's wrong with this person? He's actually feeling guilty, he's blaming himself!"

He felt that turning the numb emotions of ten million people into a protective shield was an extremely despicable thing.

He was in great pain. He dared not go out to see anyone, only daring to hide alone in this cold, empty hall, weeping and wailing all day long, driven to madness!

“But I’m different.” Yuan Xu No. 2 suddenly calmed down, straightened his clothes, and spoke with a serious tone:

I want to survive!

The sacrifices are only temporary; I will reassemble all the fragmented rules at the very beginning.

I will save the world, I will become humanity's savior, I will turn things around.

"So you killed him?"

"That's right, this weak, shameful, and tearful little man."

After learning of my plan, he dared to oppose my idea and vehemently drove me out.

"I will not give up. I have been waiting for an opportunity, a chance to come back here, and thankfully... I succeeded."

"And you, at the moment of my success, asked to see me."

I really want to see you, but I don't have time, so I have to postpone it for a few days.

So, are you satisfied with this story?

Li Xia stared at him intently, then suddenly raised her hand, a beam of light shooting from her fingertips that pierced through his body.

Yuanxu No. 2 looked down at its body, which had been pierced through, and seemed to have lost its signal. Its figure flickered twice.

"You noticed again..."

“That’s right. I knew you were probably not here when I didn’t see the Tuners team after I came in.”

"You are indeed very intelligent. How about it? How about considering becoming the next leader of the new generation of the Meta-Order?"

After I have accomplished my great deeds in the old world, I allow you to share in my glory, making you the new ruler of this world, while I will reside in Heaven as God.

Li Xia glanced at Yuan Xu No. 1 lying on the sofa, then turned and walked outside.

The projection of Yuanxu No. 2 looked at him and suddenly asked, "What are you going to do?"

Li Xia kept walking, but her voice drifted over from afar:

"Go find you...and then kill you."

----------------------

1. Monthly pass 2. Recommendation vote

Chapter 34 Assemble! Prepare for team battle!

The sneer of Yuanxu No. 2 came from behind Li Xia:

Do you think... you can still walk?

A faint light gathered in front of him, and Yuanxu No. 2 reappeared before him.

He was originally a virtual projection and had no physical form.

"No matter how strong you are, if the hunter and the god are not together... then you are just a hunter."

Yuanxu No. 2 smiled, unusually confident:

"Then please accept the second gift I've prepared for you..."

Li Xia glanced at him, but didn't even bother to acknowledge him; he was just a projection.

"I wonder if you'll like a gift from the Nine Wings, like—"

Yuanxu No. 2 remained unperturbed. He pointed a finger in mid-air, but his expression gradually changed.

"boom!"

A tremendous roar and a series of explosions rang out one after another, causing the entire base to tremble incessantly.

The doors to the hall opened, revealing a huge, melting hole with golden-red edges.

Through this hole that has been drilled through countless layers, you can even see the gray sky and the protective shield outside.

Yuan Xu No. 2's face instantly darkened, and he looked at Li Xia and asked sharply:

"What did you do? Why are the mass-energy cannons of the Fortified Defenses aimed this way?"

Li Xia raised his hand, and a rapid hissing sound came from the distant sky. Ye Ji, who was contained in the jar, flew over at high speed with the container.

His fingers gripped the outer wall, and a shimmering white light emanated from his fingertips. In an instant, the entire jar was crushed, and the electric current and the energy within exploded.

The shockwave only ruffled his black hair, like a gentle breeze.

"You... no, I should say that Yuanxu has long been sidelined, didn't you know? It's just that because of the existence of the Harmonizer team, others don't dare to openly oppose it."

Li Xia looked at him strangely, then seemed to remember something:

"By the way, the Harmonizer squad are the original sin beings, right? How did they manage that?"

Yuanxu No. 2 looked at him coldly, seemingly no longer wanting to speak to Li Xia.

Li Xia continued walking forward, spear in hand. The explosions outside grew louder and louder, suggesting that a chaotic battle was about to begin.

He wasn't in a hurry to fly out; he simply maintained this speed, leaving the miscellaneous soldiers outside to his own devices.

"Actually, I know even if you don't say it. The four tuners should be the four hunters who have reached the second critical point."

When faced with the impact of rules, human will has almost no power to resist; it will simply merge into the rules and become a part of them.

They didn't find the right path; when the rules became one with them, only the purest and simplest emotions remained.

Coincidentally, the purest... or rather, the most extreme human emotions are only a few: rage, hatred, lust, greed. As for things like arrogance, they don't really qualify.

If I had to choose, I think... joy, anger, worry, thought, grief, fear, and surprise would be a more fitting description.

Li Xia turned her head and glanced at him out of the corner of her eye:

"Actually, I'm just curious about how the original Yuanxu controlled them. I feel that the mask is some kind of suppression device."

But the difficulty lies not in suppression, but in putting a bell on a tiger; the challenge is putting it on, not how many functions the bell has.

"How do you know all this so clearly? Given your rank... you shouldn't have the right to know these things!"

Yuanxu No. 2 finally broke his silence and asked coldly:

"Or did Nine Wings betray me from the very beginning?!"

"This is how it is when we break through; you won't feel it if you haven't broken through."

Li Xia sensed that the battle outside was gradually subsiding. The so-called "gift" prepared by Yuanxu No. 2 was nothing more than the private armed forces that were originally the leader of Yuanxu.

Those soldiers encased in black armor were all injected with perfect gene serum, making them equivalent to level five hunters.

It was indeed a powerful force, but the armor locked away their wisdom and emotions, turning them into empty shells with only power.

They would indeed be easily defeated in a fight.

His body instantly transformed into a faint phantom and flew towards the cave entrance. In just a few seconds, he crossed the path he had come from and landed on the plaza outside.

At this moment, the entire area of ​​the Yuanxu leader was in a mess, with black smoke and flames from the explosion everywhere.

Debris, fragments, and collapsed buildings are scattered densely across the once clean and tidy square.

"Boss!"

The three little ones darted over, accompanied by Cang Lan and two others, their faces displaying a strange mix of fear and excitement.

It's like secretly doing something bad, but feeling really excited about it.

"I never imagined in my life that I would actually end up here at the headquarters of Yuanxu... and demolish his house!"

The blue-haired ghost glanced around furtively, then lowered its voice:

"Is what that Mr. Egg Snake said true? You're not lying to us, are you? If you are... we're doomed!"

If it weren't for Li Xia displaying power beyond the limits in Modo City, Yuan Xu's truly abnormal state, and the Nine Wings' sudden simultaneous attack on Yuan Xu's leader, it would have been a disaster.

Even if you beat Cang Lan to death, you still can't believe that Yuan Xu is in trouble, and you certainly can't gamble the Hunter Guild and the entire back alley.

"Yuanxu is dead..."

Li Xia wanted to say something more, but the communicator kept beeping. He glanced at the person on the other end and answered.

"Dark Flame! Yuan Xu, are you sure he's dead?"

"Yes, he's dead."

"Alright, we, the Nine Wings, have established the Supreme Council of the Shelter to maintain the existing structure of the Shelter."

Responsible for protecting everyone's lives!

The Supreme Committee has now issued Resolution 001, ordering you to immediately proceed to Xinghai City to hunt down the remnants of Yuan Xu's forces; they have already fled there.

Li Xia, holding the communicator, suddenly smiled:

"Mr. Corned, isn't it a bit too fast to be thinking of discarding someone now that they've served their purpose?"

"You've misunderstood. We want to create a free, stable, and happy new sanctuary! There can't be any hidden dangers."

Therefore, hunting down the remaining rebels is of paramount importance! How can we treat them like they've served their purpose and then discard them?

We have prepared a new position for you: the head of the disciplinary enforcement body under the Supreme Council!

"By the way, Mr. Corned, here's a side note: the shield's maintenance relies on the meta-order for unification."

While losing the meta-order won't cause immediate collapse, it will gradually dissipate over time, I think...

Li Xia raised his head and looked at the inverted bowl-shaped protective shield, whose top already had a slight crack:

"You should worry about this first..."

"What??? You—why didn't you say there was this hidden danger sooner! Darkflame, you—"

Li Xia hung up the communication immediately, which was also the reason he kept the Nine Wings. The protective shield would inevitably break, so he kept them to organize resistance.

Go do something more important.

"follow me."

He looked at Cang Lan and the others, who were still confused and hadn't figured it out yet.

"Where?"

The three of them were stunned. They had also heard the contents of the previous communicator. All sorts of things were mixed together, truly like a tangled mess.

They just wanted to run back to the back alley immediately and start organizing people to evacuate, or at least get into Liuhui Street, right?

"To end this chaotic world."

End...the chaotic era?

The three of them were stunned. Cang Lan lowered his head, seemingly lost in thought. After a long while, he finally raised his head, his face solemn and serious.

"Dark Flame...is it...is it possible that if we go there and win, we can...we can change this world?"

No more roaming monsters, no more isomers, and people no longer have to huddle here; can they live in the sunlight again?
