Chapter 1104: Chapter 1104

(Revision pending) The fleeing player was originally moving between floors with the help of a prop but unexpectedly stepped on Shelter 101, a metallic prop from the game that he couldn’t break through. He then saw Xu Huo next to him, picking up a crossbow and aiming at him!

The crossbow didn’t shoot a tangible arrow, but a translucent ice that penetrated the wall and then quickly melted!

"The one I’m looking for is not you," Xu Huo declared his position, but due to this momentary delay, the pursuing player had already come down from the floor above. However, as soon as he showed a pair of feet, he was hit by a strange force and sent flying, creating a deep groove in the ceiling before stopping by the wall.

The next second, two people and a stone lion landed on the same floor where Xu Huo and his companion were.

"Da Mao, attack!" Yan Jiayu called for the stone lion to pounce on the enemy, while she slapped a muscle-baby sticker on her face, her speed instantly soared, moving like a bullet too fast to catch, and she slammed into the person by the wall!

The player clearly didn’t take her head-on fighting style seriously. With a tap on his shoulder, a blue light arc sprang up in front of him. With the light arc as his shield, he didn’t even spare Yan Jiayu another glance, instead focusing on the stone lion that was slowly jogging in circles nearby.

However, just as he was about to free his hands to deal with the stone lion, Yan Jiayu, the human bomb, exploded onto him— it’s unclear whether she had other invisible defense props on her, but when she hit the light arc, she not only sent the player crashing through the wall, but also caused cracks to erupt on the light arc!

"What!" The opposition could not hide their shock, then got slammed by the momentum into the outer wall of the building, only to be bounced back by a barrier sealed in the wall’s surface.

As the one being hit, Yan Jiayu didn’t end up as ragged as him. She landed steadily in the middle of the room, wielding the Demon-Subduing Pestle she rushed up in a flurry of attacks!

"Bang, bang, bang" echoed a few times; a Shield Prop got cracked by the assault, and the player hurriedly dodged, briefly restricting Yan Jiayu’s speed with his characteristics and then charging towards Xu Huo!

His real target was the government player who had not yet escaped, but halfway there a cold light swept towards him from the side!

The pursuing player quickly dodged to the side, and when he raised his hand, dozens of cowhair needles flew out from his sleeves.

With the Air Barrier temporarily unavailable, Xu Huo simply pushed and pulled Shelter 101 in front of him, and during the attack, he also applied "Extreme Fatigue" and "Progress Bar Disappearance".

The player immediately felt the effect of the props being applied. With a press on the cuff, the clothes on his body spread out like scales then closed again, changing colors and then returning to normal. No trace of fatigue could be seen on his face!

Yan Jiayu and the stone lion joined the fight, and Da Mao, the lazy one, got hit on his butt with a stick, channeling all his fury onto the pursuing player who was being pounced on and torn at, and retreated step by step.

"Use the vase!" The chasing player threw a mat onto the ground, and Da Mao’s paw slipped on it during the scuffle, trapping a claw to the ground.

But it wasn’t very effective, as the violence-oriented stone lion simply dug a hole in the ground. It didn’t matter if it couldn’t escape the mat; it could take the floor with it as it ran.

With Da Mao difficult to manage, Xu Huo and Yan Jiayu were equally relentless. Yan Jiayu engaged in close combat, and Xu Huo, while assisting with props from the side, would also unexpectedly take the offensive. After three minutes of fighting, both sides suffered injuries.

Looking up, Xu Huo walked up the stairs. When he reached the third floor, he felt someone rapidly dropping through the middle of the building, switched to the corporate office floor in a second, and positioned Shelter 101 right below!

The fleeing player was originally moving between floors with the help of a prop but unexpectedly stepped on Shelter 101, a metallic prop from the game that he couldn’t break through. He then saw Xu Huo next to him, picking up a crossbow and aiming at him!

The crossbow didn’t shoot a tangible arrow, but a translucent ice that penetrated the wall and then quickly melted!

"The person I’m looking for isn’t you," Xu Huo stated his position. However, because of this moment’s delay, the player who was pursuing them had already come down from the upper floor. As soon as he revealed a pair of feet, he was struck by a strange force and knocked back, carving a deep groove in the ceiling until he finally stopped at the wall.

The next second, two people and a stone lion landed on the same floor where Xu Huo and his companion were.

Xu Huo paused, "Is this reliable?"

"What do you mean?" Zhou Yuanzhu was slightly confused.

"Didn’t he hear us getting surrounded back in District 002?"

"That must have been the players from District 002 using a special item," Zhou Yuanzhu said. "The Holy Sword Society has dealt with Snow City Players before; maybe someone has already figured out Guan Shu’s abilities and took precautions in advance."

"Besides, before we were sucked into the high-risk instance, we were already marked. The other side probably had been planning to throw us in here all along."

She looked worried, clearly concerned about the other companions.

This was an internal affair of the Holy Sword Society, and Xu Huo didn’t interject any further. They exchanged some information about Super Evolution for a while, and what’s worth mentioning is that the seemingly unreliable Super Evolution method he had previously obtained from the bounty platform actually worked.

"Repeatedly tempering the arms can lead to a successful Super Evolution of the arms?" He raised an eyebrow.

"I was more surprised than you when I first heard about it," Zhou Yuanzhu said. "But it’s true, it’s one of the Holy Sword Society’s players who achieved it, but it seems like this method only made their arms exceptionally muscular, capable of withstanding slashes from a sword. There were no other changes to the body."

"However, not everyone can succeed. None of those who tried to replicate it afterward succeeded."

"This method seems within reach but is actually far off." Xu Huo evaluated, saying that it’s about quantitative change causing qualitative change, but when that qualitative change would happen or if it would happen at all was uncertain – most people couldn’t stick with it.

"This also goes to show that as long as there is hope, one might succeed someday." Zhou Yuanzhu said ambiguously, and then she further inquired into the details of Xu Huo’s Spirit Evolution, because she had yet to see a player who had undergone Spirit Evolution toward Super Evolution in person.

Xu Huo pulled her into the Portal Space.

Looking at the densely packed and seemingly endless overlapping portals, Zhou Yuanzhu exclaimed in awe, "Can all these doors be opened? What’s behind them?"

"That depends on where you want to go," Xu Huo said.

Zhou Yuanzhu didn’t open any door but merely touched the frame of the door in front of her, "I heard that when Spiritual Evolution reaches a certain level, one can even traverse actual space, is that true?"

"I haven’t reached that stage yet," Xu Huo laughed, "and this Spiritual World seems powerful, but it’s not easy to affect someone who’s resolute or on guard."

Zhou Yuanzhu nodded, "Certainly it won’t be that easy... Mr. Xu, if only you would join our Holy Sword Society."
