NOVEL NEXT Chapter 459: More Than Enough
"Mutant legion? Do you think I'm on the same level as an idiot like Li Wanlong?" Shadow's tone carried a hint of mockery.
"Then why did you guys have the people in the shelter eat dragon meat? It can't just be to create a little chaos here, can it?" Ye Xuan asked Shadow, the silk thread in his hand slowly wrapping around the grass towards Shadow.
Shadow released steel beads from his hand, which Ye Xuan blocked with a large machete.
"Quite fun." Shadow said with a smile.
Fun?
Ye Xuan looked at Shadow's smile, his eyes shining. He wasn't lying when he said it; he meant it from the heart.
So, they think turning people in the shelter into mutants is just for fun?
"Death game is originally a game, of course games are meant to be played with, what else could it be?" Shadow laughed, and once again released the steel beads at high speed towards Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan dodged Shadow's steel beads, which upon hitting the ground left dents in the earth, showing the great force behind their throw.
Shadow's skill is clone creation, but the fact that Shadow possesses such great strength meant that in this game, he doesn't rely solely on skills and Spiritual Power. Even without them, he would still be an extremely strong player.
"I say, Ye Xuan, isn't it, your level is quite strange, huh? Your strength doesn't match your level at all, plus you can use silk threads, and fire, really makes me wonder, are you a bug in this game?"
As Shadow spoke, he took out an iron box from his pocket, and after opening it, those steel beads on the ground quickly started moving, then were collected back into the iron box in his hand.
Magnetic force?
Ye Xuan frowned.
The box felt crafted; ordinary magnetic force couldn't possibly be that strong, his weapon felt like it was custom made.
Right, death game is a game, perhaps in this game you can craft your own weapons. It's just that Ye Xuan had never tried before and didn't know how to craft one.
But not Shadow, perhaps he knows how to craft weapons in such a game.
"This time, I won't go easy on you, Ye Xuan." As Shadow spoke, the beads in his hand quickly lined up in front of him.
Looking at those levitating beads, Ye Xuan was sure that these beads were weapons specially crafted by Shadow.
"You're strong, I guess you're going for the big move now, and the power will be even stronger, right?" Ye Xuan said as he looked at the row of floating beads in front of Shadow.
Shadow smiled faintly, "Try and you'll know."
With that, Shadow forcefully pushed the steel beads out of his hand, the more than twenty beads, with an incredibly strong gust of wind, violently shoved towards Ye Xuan's side.
The force this time was tens of times greater than that of the previous steel beads.
Only strength will do now.
Ye Xuan raised his large machete with his right hand, using the skill of Spiritual Power for strength, a continuous flow of power began to pour into Ye Xuan's hands...
"Whoosh."
The moment Shadow released the steel beads, Ye Xuan also forcefully threw his large machete. When the two immense forces collided, the large machete was easily shattered by Shadow's steel beads.
"Your scavenged weapon is basically junk..."
Just when Shadow hadn't finished speaking, countless silk threads entangled Shadow's feet in an instant.
"How... could this be?" The shadow's complexion changed immediately.
"Why not?"
"Bang."
Ye Xuan ran to the office door and kicked it fiercely.
The office door was then violently burst open by Ye Xuan.
Inside, Tang Xuerou and the shadow were fighting, while He Yalan and Li Hui were battling the mutated people under the shadow's control.
Ye Xuan, holding his cell phone, had managed to capture this scene on video.
"You again, you brat from the rescue station?" The shadow turned and looked at Ye Xuan.
Rescue station?
This shadow's memories of Ye Xuan stopped at their previous encounter in the rescue station, which meant that the shadow they met outside earlier was the one who prevented them from leaving the factory, and this shadow was the one from the rescue station.
It seemed like the shadows couldn't share experiences in real-time; to do so, they needed to recall their clones, or the clones had to meet each other.
"Whoosh."
Without heeding what the shadow said, Ye Xuan released a flame from his palm and shot it toward the shadow.
The shadow swiftly dodged to the side. Ye Xuan rushed over and asked Tang Xuerou, "How are you? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine," Tang Xuerou didn't expect Ye Xuan to be the first to rush over and check on her. A hint of light kindled in her previously emotionless big eyes, "Handling a shadow clone, it's well within my capabilities."
"OK." Only then did Ye Xuan turn off the video recording on his phone. The footage just now could almost serve as evidence.
If the head of the unit and Zhou Shan asked Ye Xuan and his group about it later, Ye Xuan could show them this video, thereby proving that there wasn't just one shadow.
"Now, let's deal with these people first." Speaking, Ye Xuan released threads of spiritual power from his hands and struck at the surrounding mutated people.
With Ye Xuan joining in, the situation in front of them quickly turned around. The shadow glanced at Ye Xuan, and his gaze grew heavier.
"Retreat." The shadow turned to look at De Ge and ordered.
As he spoke, the shadow released a steel ball from his hand, which quickly hit the glass window next to them. After the window shattered, the shadow hurriedly fled outside.
Tang Xuerou wanted to chase after the shadow, but Ye Xuan grabbed her hand, "Don't chase. It's just a clone anyway, and there's another one of the shadow's clones outside. They'll likely meet up when they both get out."
"Ye Xuan, about 80 people in the rescue station have started mutating, and the action team there can't hold on much longer…" He Yalan approached Ye Xuan and said at this time.
"Then let's head over there."
As Ye Xuan was speaking, he saw De Ge attempting to escape through the window. A flame from Ye Xuan's hand suddenly shot onto De Ge's posterior.
Following that, De Ge let out a painful howl. Before he could react, the threads from Ye Xuan's hand rapidly floated forward from all directions, swiftly entangling De Ge's limbs.
"Big Brother Ye Xuan, spare me... spare me... I'll tell you anything you want to know, just don't kill me..." De Ge quickly caved in.
"Why is the shadow creating mutated people, exactly?" Ye Xuan approached De Ge, his threads wrapping around De Ge's neck.
