At that moment, four helicopters in the distance pointed their machine guns at the factory ground, and countless bullets poured down like a torrent of steel, instantly riddling the ground with holes.
Of the 12 surviving players behind Brother Biao, 8 chose to join the attack, while 4 chose to flee.
The four who escaped quickly started spinning in circles.
"Idiot! None of us are getting away until we kill him!"
After catching this scene out of the corner of his eye, Brother Biao immediately started cursing.
However, his loud cursing did not reach the ears of the four runners at all.
The two sides were clearly very close, yet they seemed to exist in two different worlds.
Ignoring them, Brother Biao, along with the other players, used area-of-effect attack items to bombard the entire factory.
"The Hell of Karmic Fire Punishment!"
"A flood to save all living beings!"
"Miss Acid Rain, so unpredictable!"
With the combined attack of several items, the factory grounds turned to scorched earth, buildings collapsed continuously, and some ordinary people inside were directly affected by the aftershocks. In an instant, screams of agony filled the air, and countless people died or were injured.
Unseen by the other players, the real Fan Xiao and Lu Baizhi had already flown to a position above and behind the group, completely avoiding the mindless bombardment of items and bullets.
Suddenly, a streak of light flew from the ground and struck Fan Xiao.
That was at the speed of light, so fast that Fan Xiao didn't even have time to react.
However, upon careful examination of himself, he discovered that he had not been harmed.
Could it be... that the light was used as a marker?
Soon, the person below using the prop gave him the answer.
Suddenly, a slender player turned around, looked up, pointed in his direction, and shouted, "He's over there! In the direction I'm pointing..."
Bang...!
Before he could finish speaking, his body exploded, and a large amount of blood gushed out and floated into the air.
Thud, thud, thud...!
A series of explosions spread outwards, and 12 players, including Brother Biao, a C-level player, were blown to pieces and died instantly.
The bombardment of the factory by the wide-area attack tools stopped instantly, with only the sound of bullets still ringing out.
At this point, all 20 players who entered the factory, except for Zhao Yu, had been turned into minced meat and scattered on the ground.
More than 100 liters of blood were collected by Fan Xiao, gathered together in the air, tumbling and writhing like a roaring, dangerous creature.
"go with!"
Fan Xiao drew his sword and flicked his finger, sending the blood plume flying at an incredible speed toward the location of the four helicopters.
Boom—the blood suddenly expanded and changed shape in an instant.
Countless crimson flames surged and piled together, forming a vast sea of fire that crashed down on the four roaring machines in the air with the force of a tsunami.
The crimson light shot straight into the sky, burning half of the sky a fiery red.
Chapter 336 The Book of Akasha
Amidst the deafening explosions, all four helicopters were engulfed in a bloodless inferno.
The fire's attack power exceeded the limits of D-level protective gear. In just a few seconds, all the ordinary people and players below C-level inside the helicopter were reduced to ashes in the flames.
In the end, only eight C-level players escaped the inferno, led by a brown-haired white man and a brown-haired woman wearing a witch's hat.
The brown-haired woman threw out a magic carpet prop, which floated in the air and caught all her teammates.
Standing on the magic carpet, gazing at the factory in the distance, her eyes shone with a rich spiritual light.
The nominal captain of this capture operation was a brown-haired white male, but in reality, she was the one in charge.
This is not only because she is the strongest, but also because there is an even more important reason—not long after she became an evolved being, she awakened an exceptionally precious C-level psionic power—the Book of Akasha.
It is rumored that the "Akasha Records" is a database of the universe, containing information about everything in the world.
The "Book of Akasha" is a simple microcosm of this concept.
By expending her mental energy, the brown-haired woman can lock onto a target with her gaze and then obtain any information she desires related to that target from the "Book of Akasha".
You don't need to see the real person; seeing a photo is fine too.
However, the causal relationship created by the photographs is too fragile, and the information that can be obtained is limited.
Another limitation is that the target audience is limited to humans.
However, it doesn't work as well against monsters in dungeons.
Despite these limitations, there is no doubt that this psionic energy is extremely powerful.
Since the world is essentially the same as human society, the brown-haired woman has had an absolute intelligence advantage in everything she does since she awakened her psychic powers.
She immediately recognized that Zhao Yu was backed by the "Black Snake" organization, a force of players from another region.
She immediately recognized from Fan Xiao's photo that the strange phenomena that had been occurring frequently in Wa City recently were not caused by Fan Xiao.
Now, she unleashed her psychic powers on Fan Xiao's illusory figure.
A book that only she could see came into her view.
Fan Xiao's strength exceeded her expectations. Because she hadn't seen him in person before, she couldn't obtain more detailed information.
Now it's different. Although she can't see the other person's true form, after seeing the other person's illusory figure, she has an intuition that the causal chain has been completed.
"I want to know all of Fan Xiao's abilities."
The brown-haired woman silently recited in her heart.
In that instant, she instinctively felt a sense of horror—her mental energy would be drained!
The brown-haired woman immediately stopped to get the answer to the question.
The Book of Akasha is a very practical psychic power, and it is versatile in intelligence gathering.
However, it has a significant drawback—the value of different types of intelligence is not equal; the higher the value of the intelligence, the more mental energy she needs to expend to acquire it.
There's no such thing as installment payments when it comes to using psychic energy. When she encountered information that even draining her mental energy all at once wouldn't be enough to cover the cost, she had no choice but to give up.
If her mental energy is truly drained, she herself will die.
The brown-haired woman was quite surprised by her premonition.
Her mental strength was insufficient... This, in turn, proved that Fan Xiao's abilities and strength far exceeded her imagination.
A sense of panic inexplicably rose in her heart.
Perhaps out of fear of the unknown, she subconsciously wanted to know Fan Xiao's exact location.
"I need to know Fan Xiao's current location!"
The brown-haired woman silently recited a sentence in her mind.
Soon, a holographic map appeared on a blank page of the "Book of Akasha," and Fan Xiao's figure appeared on the map, with a conspicuous red dot marked above his head.
Before she could take a closer look, the brown-haired woman immediately realized that one-fifth of her mental energy had disappeared.
Just obtaining a real-time location consumed one-fifth of my power!?
The real-time location changes constantly as the target moves! Therefore, its intelligence value is not very high.
Fan Xiao's illusion abilities... are at a very high level!
It's at least a B grade.
Realizing this, the brown-haired woman's sense of panic deepened.
"I need to know how to subdue Fan Xiao!"
She immediately made new demands regarding the "Book of Akasha".
However, just like the first request, this one made her realize that her mental energy would be drained, so she quickly stopped.
The brown-haired woman's expression suddenly changed.
The fact that no conclusion has been reached is a conclusion in itself—with the current strength of their team, there is absolutely no possibility of them defeating Fan Xiao.
In other words, there is a very high probability that they will be wiped out by the other side.
Realizing this, the brown-haired woman quickly lowered her expectations, silently thinking, "I need to know how to survive Fan Xiao!"
This time, the premonition that my mental energy would be drained disappeared.
The Book of Akasha shimmered with spiritual light, and after drawing most of the brown-haired woman's spiritual energy, it gave her the answer—always maintain a distance of more than 50 meters from Vanshaw.
50 meters—this is the maximum distance that the B-level item "Master Tailor" can interfere with.
This is also the distance that Fan Xiao was able to traverse in an instant using the B-grade prop "Mirror".
After "Fairy Tale Town" is upgraded to Level D, the interference radius of the random entrance is also around 50 meters.
At the same time, 50 meters also covers the "10-meter kill radius".
By always staying more than 50 meters away, you can naturally avoid the attacks of the Angel of Death.
"Stay at least 50 meters away? Does that mean... it's safe to attack from 50 meters away using ranged weapons? Is this how you subdue Fan Xiao?"
The brown-haired woman quickly realized this.
Then she immediately realized that the idea was incredibly stupid!
Fan Xiao possesses the ability to manipulate illusions and interfere with the minds of others. If he wanted to, hiding his true location would be as easy as eating and drinking.
Even if she uses the "Book of Akasha" to locate the opponent, because she can only obtain the real-time location 5 times after exhausting her energy, she will only have a maximum of 4 attack opportunities.
Subduing or killing Fan Xiao within four ranged attack opportunities is far too risky, with an incredibly low margin for error and an absurdly high level of difficulty!
The level of danger... is also ridiculously high!
If she makes a mistake and Fan Xiao closes the distance to within 50 meters, she will probably be killed instantly.
They are simply invincible!
At least for now, if we compare Fan Xiao to a dungeon boss, then they are facing an unsolvable dungeon boss.
We must abandon the capture plan immediately and flee Wa City!
Thinking this through, the brown-haired woman quickly gave the order: "Spread out and escape!"
"escape……?"
The brown-haired white man paused, taken aback by what he heard.
Escape... Why would the captain suddenly say something like that?
He admitted that Fan Xiao was very strong and had an overwhelming advantage over other players.
However, this enormous advantage is based on illusions that can interfere with the mind.
As long as the captain uses his psionic abilities to find out Fan Xiao's location, weaknesses, and other information, the probability of all eight of them, all C-level players, subduing Fan Xiao is still quite high.
Captain... what information did you obtain?
Why are you so tense and negative?
Not only the brown-haired man, but the remaining six team members were also filled with surprise and doubt.
The brown-haired woman ignored their reactions. After waking up, she immediately manipulated the magic carpet prop, which carried her away. She then used another prop that seemed to make her invisible, completely erasing her form and disappearing without a trace.
Perhaps to reduce weight and increase flight speed, the brown-haired man and the other six were thrown off the magic carpet by the brown-haired woman and began to freefall.
The sudden situation left the seven people stunned, unable to believe it.
Are they...abandoned?
The captain...abandoned them and ran away?
On the other side, the brown-haired woman's reaction surprised Fan Xiao, who was about to approach.
The firestorm attack created by the C-rank item "Dark Night Noble" is, to be honest, not particularly outstanding among offensive C-rank items; many C-rank defensive items can block it.
The advantages of the "Dark Noble" are its multiple functions, including blood manipulation, night vision, stamina enhancement, rapid self-healing, emotional magic, body transformation, and the "attack stacking" ability to collect large amounts of blood to continuously amplify attack power.
Give him time to prepare so that he can unleash the full power of this item.
