Chapter 548: 249: Not twisted enough to mesh with number one
After traversing through hundreds of scenes, Zhou Baiyu finally arrived at his destination.
The scene before him was filled with shattered mirrors, indicating that it was originally a mirror maze.
However, with the occurrence of battle, all mirrors were affected by the combat, breaking apart, leaving fragments all over the ground.
And within the countless fragments, an elegant gentleman was reflected.
The gentleman's foot was pressing on Qing Chi's head.
"Such an interesting power. If I eat you, will I get your power, huh?"
The speaker was different from the No. 1 in Zhou Baiyu's memory.
This person was graceful, every move extremely elegant; he should not have been Reverser No. 1, but more like a noble living in a world without an apocalypse.
If it weren't for the large sword in No. 1's hand, almost identical to Zhou Shou's, Zhou Baiyu wouldn't have recognized him as No. 1.
Zhou Baiyu found it hard to believe that Black, Qing Chi, and Red, with the exception of Black, the other two had already been defeated.
Qing Chi was severely injured on the ground, still retaining a human silhouette, but his head had been deformed.
Clearly, No. 1's sword had not spared Qing Chi's head.
No. 1 stepped on Qing Chi's head.
Not far away was Red, surrounded by several "corpses" that looked very similar to No. 1.
Their faces were indistinct, enveloped by a strange aura, but their attire and stature looked extremely similar to No. 1's.
Zhou Baiyu was unclear about Qing Chi's abilities but assumed that there was a significant gap compared to the real Qing Chi.
After all, these were just Law Enforcers from the Blue Hole's brain, created by the Blue Hole based on several Sons of the Holy Sanctuary as prototypes.
Of course, Zhou Baiyu was quite surprised. Did these Law Enforcers lose too quickly?
If that was really the case... did Bai Ye need to fear the Law Enforcers, or was No. 1 really that powerful?
"Maybe what Bai Ye fears is not the combat ability of the Law Enforcers but their ability to track him anytime, anywhere?"
"But no matter what, Seamer and I only have the option to run, yet No. 1 can forcefully defeat his opponents... At this rate, No. 1 might enter the five-star wanted status at any moment."
"Wait, where's Purple?"
Zhou Baiyu then noticed that Purple, with the ability to seal, was gone.
Purple was originally with Black, responsible for capturing Seamer.
But because No. 1's wanted level increased, Black and Purple gave up on Seamer.
And shortly after the battle unfolded, as Qing Chi and Red arrived, Purple retreated from the battlefield.
But the powers of Qing Chi and Red were unable to deal with No. 1.
Black's ability was to become intangible; No. 1 couldn't do anything about Black, and similarly, Black couldn't do anything about No. 1 either.
Currently, Black had not yet been defeated, but Law Enforcers Qing Chi and Red had been utterly vanquished.
"When you were destroying the scene and got wanted, my master had already devised a battle strategy. My power is the strongest, but I'm not suitable to fight against Bai Ye."
"Purple is the most appropriate. Among all the candidates for capturing Bai Ye, none are more suitable than Purple."
Yellow's words once again surfaced in Zhou Baiyu's mind.
At this moment, No. 1 also noticed Yellow, and Zhou Baiyu beside him.
Their performance began.
No. 1 apologized with a sorrowful smile,
"My own kind, it's really great to meet my own kind in this place full of strange shadows, ah... Sir, are you being threatened by him?"
This scene seemed as if Zhou Baiyu and Yellow appeared together, then No. 1 regarded Zhou Baiyu as one of his own, but this person was being threatened.
If Zhou Baiyu had not previously learned about some details regarding No. 1 from Zhou Shou and Wan Zi...
Or if Zhou Baiyu didn't have the power of the God of Games and Entertainment, even someone as strong as he would likely be deceived by No. 1's exquisite acting.
"I… I was captured because I'm wanted, are you too? Save me! This man in yellow... is very scary!"
Zhou Baiyu showed a frightened expression, kneeling on the ground.
No. 1 was heartbroken and furious,
"You've gone too far! You tricked us to such a place, we just want to go back! What did we do wrong! Let go of my friend!"
The words were said in such a way that anyone unaware would probably think that Zhou Baiyu and No. 1 were really good friends.
Among the Law Enforcers present, only Yellow and Black still had the strength to fight.
Yellow was speechless, while Black had already grown accustomed to it.
The scene where No. 1 spoke gently while at the same time brutally assaulting Qing Chi and Red had made Black somewhat understand what kind of person No. 1 was.
At this time, No. 1 rushed towards Yellow in anger, ostensibly furious, wanting to stand up for his friend.
In reality, he was eager to engage with this new toy. He wanted to see... just how strong this Yellow-clad Law Enforcer was!
Zhou Baiyu's panic and helplessness, No. 1's anger... it all seemed to foreshadow the impending duel between No. 1 and Yellow.
But just at that moment—
The sprinting No. 1 suddenly changed direction, drawing the large sword from his back and fiercely striking towards Zhou Baiyu!
In the second before, the moment when No. 1 angrily charged towards Yellow, he saw hope surging in Zhou Baiyu's eyes!
"Hahahaha! What an idiot! Did he really take me for one of his own kind? How foolish! In my world, there are no such things as kindred!"
Though his expression remained furious, No. 1's heart was already overflowing with joy, waiting to savor Zhou Baiyu's astonishment when his hope fell through, as well as his helplessness when faced with a double dose of despair!
In his sprint, he made a sudden stop and changed direction. He even deliberately powered up to make himself a bit slower, the force stronger, and the sense of oppression more intense!
It was all to savor Zhou Baiyu's look of despair.
