Chapter 791 - 494: Battle - Part 2
The fallen "Wang Zhifan" did not have the slightest spray of blood from the neck, and there were signs of the body rapidly dissipating, clearly using that clone skill from before to replace himself.
The assassins in the mirror world reacted even faster, realizing something was amiss almost the instant they slit the throat. They suddenly leaped back, entering into a special state of void to retreat quickly.
But the young man in plain clothes observing the magic mirror in the real world noticed a long blade suddenly appear at the assassin player’s location, an ancient long blade exuding a cyan jade luster.
The blade moved incredibly fast, penetrating the assassin player in void state upon appearance, instantly separating head from body, splattering blood in the air.
"This... was it killed? It should be... some kind of deception, right..."
The sudden change left the young man observing the magic mirror in sheer disbelief.
Primarily because, in his impression, assassin players were incredibly difficult to kill, adept at deceiving opponents with various invisibility, clones, and illusions. When you thought you had killed them with one strike, most likely it was an illusion.
Especially since this assassin player had just entered a special void state. Even without knowing the details of this skill, one could infer that it likely included traits such as damage reduction, immunity, and inability to be hit; otherwise, this assassin wouldn’t instinctively use it to handle unexpected situations.
However, the young man in plain clothes saw next that the assassin player with a severed head and spraying blood in the magic mirror fell heavily in two parts on the supermarket floor, without further counterattacks. On the contrary, Wang Zhifan’s figure suddenly appeared, bending down to check the equipment on the corpse.
"This... Mr. Wang really exudes a sense of ease..."
For a moment, the plainclothes agent beside the magic mirror was speechless. He now understood that Mr. Li had invited Wang Zhifan because he indeed had strength, but his work attitude was too relaxed and casual, inspecting the spoils of war when the enemy seemed only half dealt with.
In the mirror world, Wang Zhifan quickly inspected the equipment on the assassin player’s corpse, while controlling six clones on the other side to battle the remaining enemy players, making the most of their final efforts.
He was absolutely sure that he had completely killed the assassin player who had ambushed him, as his strong sense of perception and the feedback from the Cyan Emperor Saber confirmed this.
In fact, while he was hidden and controlling his clones, he noticed the approaching invisible state assassin player, no doubt intending to ambush him.
That’s why he was able to use deceptive methods when the opponent thought they had quietly crept up behind him. The original hid briefly in a dream state, simultaneously placing a clone to replace his real position, fooling the opponent.
As for the death of this assassin player, it wasn’t Wang Zhifan who personally took action. Instead, the Cyan Emperor Saber, feeling excited in the dream, launched an attack itself after obtaining his permission, emerging from the dream to decapitate the enemy who thought they were in a safe state.
Legendary weapons are unreasonable like this, able to cut through even concepts of space, time, and sin. They disregard any void state damage immunity, and being a spirit blade, when it’s in high spirits, it acts autonomously without needing to be wielded.
"Rare ring, Exquisite Gloves, Exquisite Leathers, rare belt, Exquisite dagger... The equipment’s pretty decent, but nothing particularly suitable for me."
After a rapid inspection, Wang Zhifan confirmed the value of the spoils, which were overall of a relatively high grade but not significant to him.
It’s necessary to explain here that a player’s equipment generally doesn’t reveal specific quality attributes unless the owner chooses to show them or upon their death. Only then can other players determine each piece’s information through close observation or contact; otherwise, players would have no secrets from each other.
Just as Wang Zhifan stood up, a voice sounded by his ear from the plainclothes agent guarding the magic mirror.
"Mr. Wang! The other five enemies are heading your way! Please retreat temporarily and join other agents!"
"I know, but have your people wait a bit."
Wang Zhifan calmly replied, stepping toward the enemies rapidly closing in through the black mist.
The six clones he had sent out had all been eliminated, and the five enemy players seemingly sensed the death of their assassin companion by some means, hence their collective attack with evident intentions of revenge.
Rationally, the best choice for Wang Zhifan now would be to temporarily avoid the brunt of the attack, having already eliminated one enemy, and cooperate with 12 elite agents to face the angry enemy group, which would be the most secure approach.
However, Wang Zhifan chose not to do so; he decided to face the challenge head-on, attempting to defeat all opponents alone.
The reason was simple: his legendary Cyan Emperor Saber was exhilarated, eager to help him vanquish these rare formidable foes.
This was undoubtedly a great opportunity to significantly enhance his rapport with the Cyan Emperor Saber, enabling him to draw out more of its complete power.
Through previous tests with his clones and the process of killing the assassin player, he understood that the risk of doing so was not unacceptable, and he had the capability to take on five enemies simultaneously.
"If I do this, the Bureau’s understanding of me will probably deepen a lot... but so what? Nowadays, I own no less than ten Otherworlds, so I can always decide not to live on Earthstar if needed."
With resolve firmly set, Wang Zhifan charged fearlessly towards the enemies emerging from the black mist!
In a flash, he wielded the Cyan Emperor Saber and, with terrifying speed, surpassed the black dragon-like creature leading the charge within the poisonous black fog, appearing above the shield, landing a full-force strike on the transparent shield protecting the five enemy players!
He had learned from clone tests that this shield was no simple matter, providing undisturbed protection for those inside, like blocking attacks from below the ground, and isolating external supernatural energy invasions, so even using his ice source power was hard to affect those within; thus, he knew he must break the shield to eliminate them.
BOOM!!!
With Wang Zhifan’s full-force slash, the shield, which had been reinforced multiple times by the short white girl after being attacked by clones, shattered instantly, unable to withstand even a millisecond.
After all, Wang Zhifan’s own strength was a thousand times greater than his clones, utterly surpassing them in level.
In fact, the powerful blaze of his blade still had substantial force after shattering the shield, directly destroying the short white healer below who couldn’t dodge in time, wiping out the team’s support on the spot, and also blowing away half the body of the Asian teen in a suit beside her, instantly killing two out of the five.
The terrifying sword light cascaded downward, breaking through the floors from the third to the second, first, and then the fourth floors of the supermarket, cycling repeatedly. After all, this mirror world was layers upon layers overlapped together, inconsistent with real-world supermarket architecture.
"Holy shit! So fierce!"
By the magic mirror, the eyes of the young man in plain clothes nearly popped out as he saw Wang Zhifan almost collapse the mirror world with a single strike, discovering for the first time that he had completely underestimated Mr. Wang, realizing that Mr. Wang wasn’t serious before.
However, he wasn’t worried that the mirror world would really have issues due to Wang Zhifan’s excessive attacks, knowing the mirror world was very different from the real one, with any building rapidly regenerating after being destroyed, presumably something Wang Zhifan had been informed about, allowing him to strike without reservation.
Bang bang bang bang bang!
BOOOM!
In the mirror world, having slain two with a single swipe, Wang Zhifan’s presence was formidable, but the three remaining enemy players did not sit idly by. They were undoubtedly shocked by the previous fearsome strike, but a strong attack doesn’t necessarily mean strong defense, prompting the three to quickly counterattack.
The black gunman naturally went full firepower, holding a rifle in each hand, rapidly back-stepping while firing bullets without restraint at Wang Zhifan.
The calm and steady mage leader fired the white-purple energy sphere he had charged for a long time and instantly disappeared from sight.
Only the white muscular man in full mecha over three meters tall turned and ran, leaving the task of close-quarters combat to the enraged summoned beast Black Dragon, after its master’s death.
