Chapter 512: Chapter 512 Attrition War

Bai Kou was right; when Xu Huo took out this copy, he hadn’t planned on returning empty-handed. With high-level players present, if they didn’t want to clear the game through conventional means, he couldn’t force them, and chances were they wouldn’t clear it through normal channels anyway, resulting in the copy’s likely destruction by the end.

Since it was a one-time use, it was, of course, necessary to use it to its fullest extent.

He glanced at Bai Kou, "Even a horse running a race has to eat grass. The person you mentioned is a Rank-B player, right? I’ve seen his props before, but I still don’t know what his traits are. I can’t go to kill someone empty-handed; if I don’t succeed, it will be a trouble for you too."

Bai Kou didn’t say much in response, "This is your territory. You handle it. If you can’t even kill a Rank-B player, how can you inherit Uncle Fan Xiao’s castle?"

"Right, I also think that Zone 011 is too dangerous. The castle would be better off in your hands; I’m leaving." Xu Huo said sincerely as he looked at her.

Bai Kou rolled her eyes, "Yuguo’s profession is a black market doctor. He has two pretty lethal traits; one allows him to transform objects into scalpels at any time, limited only to small items, excluding living beings. The second is that his hands carry an infectious disease that can be transmitted by touching a person or object. Touching him directly or anything carrying his germs can quickly infect someone and turn into a serious illness."

"Can a protective suit prevent it?" Xu Huo asked.

"Only a Rank-B protective suit could prevent it. But if you have close contact with him, can you ensure that you won’t get hurt?" Bai Kou asked.

Xu Huo indeed had protective gear at hand, having acquired not a few top-notch equipment pieces from Jiang Feng, but as Bai Kou said, he didn’t possess the strength to engage in close combat with a Rank-B player without getting a scratch.

Yet relying solely on ranged attacks, he might not even be able to hold Yuguo down.

"You’re not without advantages," Bai Kou said, "This is your copy, and it happens to be a spiritual-based one. As long as he isn’t capable of breaking the copy, he will be affected by it."

"Isn’t this supposed to be your copy?" Xu Huo raised an eyebrow. The staircase that formed automatically under his feet took him back downstairs, and the floors, like automatic doors, closed swiftly after his departure.

"You’re playing it pretty smooth," Bai Kou laughed. After cleaning the blood off herself, she tapped the spherical object again. The little black dots that were moving over the sphere were isolated by the rise of black particles. At the same time, The Seventeenth Hospital underwent changes.

The original copy’s setting was just a larger hospital with a rooftop, altogether six stories. While it could also change somewhat according to Xu Huo’s adjustments, it mostly affected the psyche of the players who entered. In other words, the building was physically real. If someone unwittingly punched through the hospital’s walls, there was nothing to be done about it.

But Bai Kou, through some means unknown, managed to affix a layer of metallic shell on the hospital’s walls and even gifted it with her signature metallic chain portals. She also used her own Spiritual World to modify the layout of the hospital slightly, effectively and literally isolating Yuguo by himself.

For a moment, Xu Huo suspected Bai Kou of hiding her strength, but in the next second, he no longer had the energy to ponder over it because Bai Kou had sent Yuguo directly in front of him.

Previously, when Bai Kou killed Jiang Feng, it made Yuguo pay a bit more attention to Xu Huo. Just moments ago, he was with the Whale, and in a blink of an eye, he had changed locations, bumping right into him. The anger from not being able to kill Bai Kou successfully and complete the trade was instantly directed at the person before him.

With a casual stomp on the ground and a sweep of his hand, the scattered fragments turned into lethal projectiles shooting towards Xu Huo.

Xu Huo was not about to sit and wait for death, and now wasn’t the time for a real showdown. He turned and ran towards a newly appeared corridor on his left. After he entered, countless monsters conjured by the imagination poured out of the corridor, swarming and surrounding Yuguo.

The sweeping move was useless against these monsters. Yuguo picked up a very small scalpel and swung it through the air, and the oddly-shaped monsters were sliced into two halves.

Naturally, the vitality of these monsters couldn’t be judged by common sense, especially a few that looked strikingly human-like. When bisected, they hung by a bunch of viscera that took flight, and these could even be used as ropes, repeatedly entangling Yuguo.

This man dressed in a floral shirt and beach shorts was irritated as he slapped the objects clinging to him. A mass of black-gray substance that looked like mold spread rapidly, and as if tiny flies had rapidly grown, soon corroded the monsters to nothingness.

Having witnessed two of his abilities, Xu Huo didn’t go back, but instead changed the layout of the hospital, sending more products of fantasy towards Yuguo and even conjured up a Blood Alien according to his own design.

Previously, Yuguo hadn’t taken the monsters seriously, considering them nothing but a waste of time, as mental creations couldn’t truly harm him. But the appearance of the Blood Alien caused his expression to change. After all, some high-level players kept Aliens as their enforcers, a trend popularized by the Eye of Platinum.

But he couldn’t be sure the Blood Alien before him was real, so the first thing he did after shaking off the surrounding monsters was to test the authenticity of the Blood Alien—by using his ability to transform the scattered debris around him to nail it to the wall!

"Aoao!" The injured Blood Alien roared, not caring about the "scalpels" on its body, and struggled fiercely down, charging at Yuguo relentlessly, not stopping for even a second.

Yuguo swung his scalpel from a distance, but to his surprise, the Blood Alien nimbly dodged his attack, bouncing off the ceiling and swooping down onto his face!

Yuguo used the "scalpel" again, but to little effect. Influenced by the copy, he actually didn’t know much about the real situation inside the hospital building, and the previously crushable walls couldn’t be broken at will now. There were not so many usable things around, so this attack failed to repel the Blood Alien and merely scratched its surface.

However, this was not an issue. He used an item to move and appeared in the corridor Xu Huo had left, but here too were the "Blood Aliens" Xu Huo had prepared for him.

With two Blood Aliens and the overgrowth on the walls completely surrounding Yuguo, he didn’t use the "infectious disease" tactic again. Instead, he took out a tuning fork and plucked it. Everything around him, whether monsters or Blood Aliens, instantly turned to ash, and the hospital revealed its original appearance—a metal-encased wall and unprotected floors.

Not far away, Xu Huo had concealed himself downstairs through a portal left by Bai Kou. Yuguo’s tuning fork was not a weapon but an awakening device. Dou Shengnan, a member of the Guile Sound Knights, was proficient in psychic attacks, so it was not strange for members of the group to have some contingency measures in this area. Merely consuming Yuguo’s abilities with mental creations wasn’t very effective.
