Chapter 1027: Chapter 1027: Head-On Battle with a Rank-B Player

Xu Huo currently encounters props that can counteract mental interference generally work by affecting the psychic controller themselves to achieve a blocking effect. The advantage of such props is that they work fast, and both sides can immediately know whether they are effective or not. The downside is that they are not persistent; if the first use does not have a good effect, the possibility to completely break through the spiritual world again is also not great.

However, under normal circumstances, as long as the purpose of interfering with the psychic controller themselves is achieved, that’s sufficient. For players who don’t understand spirit evolution and mental interference well, rashly delving into someone else’s spiritual world is an extremely risky move. Super Evolvers themselves are unpredictable, and compared to ordinary players of the same level, they might suddenly pull out a trump card.

The bespectacled man is not foolish either. Almost as soon as he senses Xu Huo’s attempt to interfere, he would use a prop.

"Props specially developed for the likes of you, how do you like the taste?" Xu Huo can pass through walls using the spiritual world, but he can’t. Thus, he paves his own way with his fists, breaking through over twenty walls in one go from the middle of the villa to create a straight passage out of the villa!

Xu Huo leaps out of the villa and kicks off the ground, flying into the sky, but before reaching the limit height of "Gentleman’s Stance," a force pulls him down forcibly, sending him back to the second floor of the villa.

Taking a punch from the front, he falls backward and uses "This Way is Blocked" to briefly define a boundary, then sets up "Hell’s Prison" in front of him.

Sadly, the bespectacled man, wearing a defense prop, directly passes through the laser plane of "This Way is Blocked," and while "Hell’s Prison" delays him for a second, it ultimately fails to bind his limbs.

Xu Huo, however, takes this opportunity to retreat back into the villa; with a raise of his left hand, the entire villa is once again embraced within his spiritual world. This time he tries to block his hearing to resist the opponent’s prop, but it has little effect. After a brief intense pain, facing the person already upon him, he has no choice but to reduce the range of his spiritual world.

"Damn thing, eat my sword!" Chi Minghong suddenly comes up from downstairs, with Red Sword Qi sweeping across, slicing through the walls of the corridor like cutting tofu, and striking a beautiful curve onto the bespectacled man’s fist!

The Sword Qi isn’t enough to break through the shockwave, but it disrupts the opponent’s rhythm. Then Chi Minghong presses his hand down towards the ground, "Collapse of the Ground!"

The bespectacled man in the second-floor hallway suddenly feels the ground give way, falling with the inexplicably fragmented tiles down to the first floor.

Chi Minghong seizes the opportunity to retreat. Seeing that the bespectacled man doesn’t come up, he promptly moves to Xu Huo’s side, "What’s happening, is this guy planning to dismantle the instance? He isn’t a Rank-C Player, is he?"

It’s not that an Advanced Player can’t enter a Low-Level instance, but they cannot recklessly destroy it, otherwise, they may be penalized by the game, with the maximum being becoming a wanted criminal.

Once becoming a wanted criminal, that Wormhole Point will no longer provide players with Tickets, meaning the instance is effectively terminated. Even if players rob Tickets to enter the instance, they cannot receive the clearance reward until after three months when they are forcibly teleported to a high-risk instance.

Of course, there are ways to circumvent this, which is to leave one’s home Wormhole Point through other channels. However, going to other Wormhole Points doesn’t mean one can be worry-free forever. No matter where they hide, as soon as they use a Ticket again, the previously missed instances will accumulate anew, ultimately unable to escape from the high-risk instance. Unless the player can transit between different Wormhole Points through non-Ticket means—a slim chance indeed.

Of course, Xu Huo had not gone through this process, and the details might differ from the information retrieved from the bounty platform. After all, there are those who exploit gaming loopholes, but this bespectacled man had a legitimate occupation; even as a Grey Player, he wouldn’t risk exile to other Wormhole Points just to complete a task set by an employer.

In fact, this was what the bespectacled man was wary of; he wanted to force Xu Huo out of the villa, but he had not been successful.

"Since you’re not a Rank-C Player, could you please show some public spirit?" Chi Minghong said, "If you dismantle the instance, where are the rest of us supposed to go to clear it? Did all these people come here for nothing?"

The bespectacled man didn’t even glance at her, raising his left hand and, with a surge of suction, Chi Minghong was drawn out, her body uncontrollably crashing into his palm!

"Stalker Prohibition Order!" Chi Minghong flung a piece of paper at the bespectacled man, which forced him to step back involuntarily, but that was all – the distance between them was still shrinking rapidly!

Seeing no escape, Chi Minghong used every Prop at her disposal, successfully delaying for two seconds. Just as she ran out of props, a spiral staircase rising from the lower floor intersected her path, sending her upwards.

At the same time, more spiral staircases appeared one after another in other parts of the villa, varying in height and rotation speed but densely packing the villa; a large portion of the original villa collapsed, with debris continuously falling!

The bespectacled man looked up and sneered, after restarting a Prop, the stairs between them began to be destroyed one by one. At the same time, he scattered a handful of Ice Pearls, not particularly big, which froze upon hitting the ground. The Pearls shot out in all directions, each impact creating at least a one-meter radius of frozen area. Chi Minghong, Zhou Yuanzhu, and the Lip Piercing Player, who had been sent away by Xu Huo or drawn close to watch, all had parts of their bodies frozen. This freeze seemed to be unremovable in the short term, limiting the movements of all three.

Fortunately for them, the bespectacled man was not targeting them. After using the Ice Pearls to drive Xu Huo out, he spread his fingers, and all the scattered Ice Pearls flew in the same direction!

Simultaneously, the second floor of the villa formed a layer of smoky, almost translucent stuff that, in the blink of an eye, solidified into a thin sheet less than a millimeter thick with a "buzz". Starting from the bespectacled man’s feet, it silently sliced through everything five centimeters above the floor – including people!

A subdued cry of pain came from diagonally behind; clearly, this silent attack had mistakenly injured other players in the instance, failing to sever Xu Huo’s legs. Of course, the Ice Pearls were ineffective as well – all blocked by the "Unassailable Territory".

"You do have quite a few good items on you!" While speaking, the bespectacled man took it upon himself to step in, throwing a punch at Xu Huo’s face through the gaps between props!

At this moment, the three seconds of "Unassailable Territory" had just passed, and Xu Huo appeared unable to successfully transition to the next before getting interrupted. He barely blocked with the "Eye of the Deceased", and then his body flew backward.

Normally, he would have hit the villa’s wall, but the next second a door appeared behind him; the darkness inside, like a fluid, immediately swallowed him up!

Another Mental Interference.

The bespectacled man did not hesitate and charged in, but as he entered, he realized something was amiss. Unlike the previous Dark Space or the spiral staircases, what he saw now was a massive circular library!
