Xie Zhi's thoughts returned to the battle.
At the moment when he was surrounded by poisonous needles, he lost his mind.
There were only about ten seconds left for the transformation of Crazy Scissors. While Xie Zhi's whole body was ejected like a cannonball towards the dining car at the door of the locker room, he couldn't help but worry about Zhang Hongmian's safety.
"I can use blue fire mode to summon crazy scissors to temporarily improve various body functions to avoid attacks, but what should Zhang Hongmian do?"
In the last reincarnation, Zhang Hongmian was pierced by a poisonous needle in the calf of his left leg. After digging out the ulcerated part of his calf, he still died quickly in a short period of time.
This time, can she dodge the attack on her left leg?
What happens after you escape? How should she deal with the "Shadowless Man" who can't be found at all?
Xie Zhi's mind wandered for a few tenths of a second, and then a poisonous needle nearly scratched his cheek, and Xie Zhi realized that he was distracted.
His side was also surrounded by many poisonous needles at this moment.
During the few seconds that I was distracted, the invisible figure had already shot six poisonous needles from behind me, and each poisonous needle flew towards my head and upper body!
Xie Zhi subconsciously wanted to incarnate the emotions covering the surface of his body to block the poisonous needle, but Xie Zhi snuffed out the thought as soon as it arose.
In the last round of memory illusion, I had let Crazy Scissors protect me from poisonous needles, and ended up with a puncture in my right hand and a ulcer in my left hand. Those water needles made of the Depression Spring virus were insidious and vicious, and I couldn't block the water needles. It's nothing more than an attack. If he can block it, the subsequent ferocious poison will make him unable to survive and can only die quickly.
So Xie Zhi changed his mind and pounced forward. While lying on the ground with his hands, without changing his speed of action, Xie Zhi fell to the ground in a flying posture and quickly slid out of the sauna room.
Xie Zhi felt the sound of piercing the air above his head, and the six poisonous needles passed over his head at this moment and hit the steel cabinet in front of him.
There was a crisp sound of clanking, and the poisonous needles turned into several pools of water stains on the surface of the standing cabinet.
At the same time, Xie Zhi realized that there was a new round of attacks coming from behind him, another three poisonous needles. This time, all the poisonous needles went straight to the soles of his feet.
Xie Zhi rolled over and managed to avoid the attack of the poisonous needle again. Then he used his feet to hook the movable sliding door of the sauna room and closed the sauna room directly!
There was a muffled sound of "dong".
The transparent glass door of the sauna room was closed again, and white mist quickly accumulated on the glass door, forming a curtain that gradually made it difficult to see the inside.
"Success?"
Xie Zhi swallowed, got up from the ground, and then looked at the transparent glass door covered with white mist, while breathing heavily, feeling the hot touch from behind disappear quickly.
The transformation mode of Crazy Scissors is coming to an end.
Not ten seconds, not even five seconds.
Xie Zhi felt the rapid loss of energy in his body, like a piece of porcelain full of cracks, and the moisture inside had almost completely disappeared.
After holding on to the transformation of the crazy scissors and staring at the closed glass door twice, Xie Zhi finally let go of his emotional incarnation and transformed back into the helpless young man.
He no longer had any strength to fight anymore. If he forced himself to hold on for another second or two, Xie Zhi might just fall to the ground and faint.
Xie Zhi held his knees with both hands, allowing himself to stand firm while breathing heavily.
There was a sweet taste of thirst in his throat, and Xie Zhi felt that even his breathing was a little hoarse.
To be honest, Xie Zhi himself was not sure whether this strategy could succeed.
In the last round of mental illusion, I couldn't beat the elusive shadowless man. Even at the last moment, I saw the shadowless man's translucent body appearing in front of me, and water needles shot out from his mouth. , but that was just an afterthought that was difficult to remedy. If you were to put yourself in that situation again, there was still a high probability that you would not be able to defeat the opponent.
But this time, due to the reduction of energy in his body and the shortening of the transformation time of Crazy Scissors, he changed his response measures against the Shadowless Man from "killing" and "defeating" to "escape" and "buying time". With the current rather quick-witted operation.
He flew out of the closed sauna room, closed the door with his backhand, and locked the shadowless man in the sauna room to buy himself more time.
As for what I can do if I have more time...
Xie Zhi doesn't know, but doing so can help him live longer.
Xie Zhi's breath gradually calmed down, but his eyes were still staring at the sauna.
The glass door separating the locker room and the sauna was covered in white water vapor, making it difficult to tell what was going on inside.
Xie Zhi didn't know what he was waiting for.
Maybe he was waiting for a pair of transparent hands to appear on the glass door, from the Shadowless Man. Those hands would push the glass door open, walk out of the sauna, and give him the final blow, as he was already unable to resist.
Or maybe he was waiting for the shadowless person in the glass door to never come out.
Just like in some horror games, as long as you close the door, it will not open the door to chase your weak enemy AI.
Thinking of this, Xie Zhi couldn't help laughing.
What are you thinking about? How could there be such a stupid enemy?
Even if those weirdos contaminated by the emotional virus have lost their basic IQ, they still have the intelligence to open a door.
What's more, the shadowless man in front of him is not only good at chasing and blocking, but also good at finding his own weaknesses, aiming at them and attacking fiercely. He doesn't look like he "can't open the door".
Sure enough, we are still waiting for the final verdict.
Xie Zhi secretly sighed and thought. It was obviously unrealistic to run back to the open-air hot spring to hide. The shadowless man was good at using "water needles" and was at home in the mist-filled sauna, above the steaming hot spring. Not too different.
Maybe he could take advantage of the opportunity before the Shadowless Man opened the door to run out of the hot spring room and go to the corridor outside?
Xie Zhi stared at the motionless glass door, thinking.
But after subconsciously touching his body, Xie Zhi remembered that during the previous conversation with Zhang Hongmian, he had resisted the urge to get into the bandage holster to "moisturize", and directly induced it through some kind of verbal switch. Attacked by the Shadowless Man...
In other words, at this moment, Xie Zhi's body is still naked, and with the previous strenuous exercise, and from the steam-filled sauna to the dry air locker room, Xie Zhi's body age has also changed from twenty Yu Sui returned to his adult form.
"It seems that the corridor is temporarily unavailable."
If you leave the locker room and go to the corridor outside the hot spring room, you will inevitably face a long period of time without water.
If he hadn't put himself into the dry body bandage holster filled with water, he might have turned into a baby waiting to be fed before he reached the end of the corridor.
But the Dry Body Bandage was still in the sauna not far away. How could he kill the invisible "Shadowless Man" and get back the bandage holster?
Xie Zhi's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
Then, when his physical age shrank back to thirteen or fourteen years old, Xie Zhi was suddenly stunned.
"Is this, another minute passed?"
"But...why hasn't the Shadowless Man in the sauna moved yet?"
"Could it be...that it's really like the AI in some horror games that can't open the door?"
Xie Zhi blinked.
The safest way now is to continue waiting, but the rapid loss of water in Xie Zhi's body made Xie Zhi commit suicide slowly every second he sat and waited. After thinking about it, Xie Zhi decided to get closer and take a closer look.
He walked step by step towards the glass door that separated the locker room from the sauna. At the same time, he put his hands forward on the handle of the glass door to prevent the shadowless man from sensing his arrival and suddenly opening the door to attack.
In this way, even if the shadowless man suddenly attacked, he might still be able to escape.
Well, maybe...
Xie Zhi swallowed again.
The water vapor on the glass door was very thick, making it difficult for Xie Zhi to see through the white water vapor whether there was anyone on the other side of the door.
And just when Xie Zhi was thinking further about whether he should bring his eyes closer and stick to the glass door to look inside, a sudden change occurred.
"Dong dong" twice.
Two dark red bloody hands slapped the glass door one after another.
Then the two bloody hands slid all the way down, making a "squeaking" sound, leaving two slightly horrifying bloody handprints on the other side of the glass door.
Not only was it not his own illusion, Xie Zhi always felt that the strength of the two bloody handprints was a bit weak, as if the owner of the bloody handprints was dying, and the lamp had run out of oil and was on the verge of death.
"You guessed it right, it is indeed dead."
Zhang Hongmian's voice once again came from the depths of Xie Zhi's heart.
"Your reminder was very crucial to me. I used my emotional incarnation 'Blood Oath' to successfully kill it."
Blood oath...
Xie Zhi chewed on this strange name. It turned out that Zhang Hongmian was also a negative Qing teacher?
"I have been doing this for a while. Before joining the fact-finding department, I worked for a period of time in a group of people employed by the superhuman system."
"You know, it's not just boys who have the dream of saving the world, many girls also want to be heroines."
"But those are very long-lasting memories. Not to mention that I have been dead for three years now. Even when I was still alive, I had already left the Clearance Department and was working in the Fact Investigation Department. Ten years.”
Zhang Hongmian's chattering came from the other end of the spiritual link. For some reason, Zhang Hongmian's chattering made Xie Zhi feel at ease.
Xie Zhi's breath finally relaxed. He slowly slid down the glass door and sat on the ground.
"Just survive, just survive."
Xie Zhi didn't want to experience the feeling of resetting the illusion again. The experience of forgetting all about the friend he had just met in an instant, the feeling that he had risked everything and still failed to rescue the person involved. It was really frustrating. People have mixed tastes...
Xie Zhi breathed a long sigh of relief, then got up again, and opened the sauna door again before his physical age shrank back to seven or eight years old.
After that, regardless of the half-transparent and half-bright red corpse of a "semi-shadowless man" lying in front of him, as well as the rotten smell and sweet smell of blood in the air, Xie Zhi just threw his arms around. Lying on the floor of the sauna room, he hungrily absorbed the moisture in the air.
After a while, Xie Zhi's IQ came back online.
He asked Zhang Hongmian on the other end of the spiritual link,
"I didn't think about it until now."
"You killed the Shadowless Man in your timeline, why did the Shadowless Man on my end also die?"
