Chapter 3256: An Actress
The Red Pole Star burst into laughter. Endless lightning seemed to be burning around ‘Li Yao’, who was being controlled by the will of the planet.
“Right now, the battle in the battlefield of the universe must’ve reached the last moment. I can even smell the intense smoke, hear the roaring of the cannons, and hear the roars of Ding Lingdang and the rest of them. To be honest, I didn’t expect that Ding Lingdang and the rest of them would come up with such a method of ‘writing a novel’ to pa.s.s on the most crucial information. The novel ‘Forty Thousand Years of Cultivator’ is like a bridge. No. It is a long, thin, translucent spider thread that hangs between the ‘Prison on Earth’ and the battlefield of the universe. It is dancing beautifully and letting us know everything about each other as well as your weakness and embarra.s.sment!”
The Red Pole Star smiled. “Your biggest trump card has been revealed, and you’ve wasted it once in advance. Do you think I’m stupid enough to ask you to activate your super permissions a second time?
“This is the place of your death that I’ve carefully planned for you. All the soul fragments of ‘Li Yao’ will resonate in this place. The blood of billions of people will boil, the soul will burn, and the roars that will not yield will send you to h.e.l.l!”
Zi! Zi! Zi! Zi! Zi!
Accompanied by wild laughter and furious roars, the hundred and eight thousand pores all over the Red Pole Star released a hundred and eight thousand bolts of lightning, trying to envelop and suppress ‘Li Yao’, who was being manipulated by the will of the planet. The sealed command room was humming and shaking violently like a sealed furnace, too. Countless visible ripples suddenly appeared on the walls nearby.
“So that’s how it is. Is this your entire plan? Although it is not the most brilliant one, it is still quite creative.
Faced with the crazy laughter and roars of the Red Pole Star, the expression of the will of the planet did not change at all. If there were any subtle changes, it would be the satisfied smile on its face, as if a muscular man who had starved for three days and three nights had just finished enjoying a delicious, juicy steak.
“Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, and thank you, the group of prison breakers and rebels made of Li Yao’s soul fragments, for trying your best to come up with a possibility that even I failed to notice.
The will of the earth said casually, “After billions of years of battles, the outcome of the game is no longer important. I am like a chess player who has exhausted all his chess skills. Whatever moves my opponent makes are all within my calculation. How boring and torturous it is!
“It’s been almost a hundred thousand years since I’ve seen anything new. I’ve seen and deciphered all the moves of my enemies ten thousand times. Thank you for giving me an ‘unexpected’ experience today, even though… it didn’t help much.
Manipulating ‘Li Yao’, the will of the earth raised his right hand again.
Red Pole Star’s eyes bulged. His eye sockets were almost burnt into two holes where lightning was spurting out. He knew that his opponent’s right hand was the key to activate the ‘super permissions’. His soul almost entirely turned into lightning and rushed out, entangling the five fingers of his opponent’s right hand so that his opponent would not twist his wrist in a 360-degree angle.
To be fair, it was not an easy move.
Affected by the lightning, ‘Li Yao’s’ wrists, elbows, and even his shoulder blades were all cracking. His bones could not withstand the pull in the opposite direction and were about to break.
His five fingernails were shattered, and his fingertips were soaked in blood. Before the blood fell, it was already torn apart by the electric arcs and turned into a b.l.o.o.d.y mist.
“Stop dreaming. I would rather die than let you twist my wrist!”
Red Pole gritted his teeth.
“Is that so?”
The will of the earth smiled. After a moment of silence, it made another move.
It was true that it was very difficult to turn the wrist 360 degrees when the Red Pole Star was trying its best to stop it. But the other movement was much simpler. Even a three-year-old could do it.
The will of the earth clenched its fists.
His five b.l.o.o.d.y fingers retreated and gathered in his palm. With his right fist as the center, an invisible and thick ripple spread out quickly. Wherever the ripple went, everything became extremely ‘slow’. The bouncing lightning, the rapid breathing of the Red Pole Star, the sweat and blood that splashed into the air, and the pictures on the hundreds of screens all slowed down, slowed down, slowed down, slowed down, and finally stopped.
The Red Pole Star was like a statue. More precisely speaking, it was a fly that had been embedded in amber and frozen for a long time.
The crimson lightning, the drops of sweat and blood that were about to fall, and the ever-changing brilliance in his eyes, which should’ve been fleeting, were all frozen and preserved.
The entire command room turned into a giant amber.
However, the will of the earth was not affected by the time freeze, as if the ‘amber’ was still gum that had not been condensed yet. After paying a certain price, it could still pa.s.s through it with difficulty.
Huchi! Huchi! Huchi! Huchi!
Li Yao’s face was pale, and he was breathing fast. The action of ‘fist-fist’ and ‘Time Freeze’ seemed to have drained him or ‘it’ of all his strength, turning his heartbeat into a difficult task.
However, it was in control of the situation after all. In the combat room, everything except itself was trapped in the swamp of time. It was the only thing that was free.
It smiled confidently and pushed away the hands of the Red Pole Star that were reaching for it. It observed the lightning that was spurting out of the eyes of the Red Pole Star as if it were appreciating the trophies. It even crushed and a.n.a.lyzed the lightning in a mysterious way, trying to discover the structure hidden in the deepest part of the lightning, which was the secret of the ‘lightning life’.
The Red Pole Star’s face was still frozen in astonishment. It was obvious that he was trying his best to resist the time swamp and even managed to find some s.p.a.ce of activity in the swamp. But it was useless. He was too slow. Compared to his opponent’s reaction, his movements were too slow. The two of them seemed to be living in different time zones, like a rabbit racing against a turtle!
Maybe because of the hasty attack, or maybe because Red Pole had guessed it right just now, the cooldown time of the super permissions was very long and the cost of using them was very high. Most of the power of the will of the earth had been sent to the battlefield of the universe, and one ten-thousandth of the remaining power had been activated by the super permissions of ‘time reversal’ not long ago. Therefore, the ‘time freeze’ that the super permissions barely activated could not last long.
After more than ten seconds, the solidification showed signs of loosening. The shackle-like ripples quickly dispersed.
However, more than ten seconds were enough for the will of the earth to obliterate and eliminate the lightning that had invaded the Red Pole Star’s body just now. The mysteries of the lightning were partly a.n.a.lyzed, and the Red Pole Star was placed in the most suitable attack position that was absolutely indefensible.
BAM!
The moment the flow of time returned to normal, the will of the earth opened its fingers and grabbed Red Pole’s head, pus.h.i.+ng him to the ground heavily.
In the meantime, countless silver threads flowed into the Red Pole Star’s brain through its facial organs. Since part of the process was to a.n.a.lyze the mysteries of lightning, the intrusion and absorption were more targeted this time. The Red Pole Star did not react or defend at all. Its entire brain, including its central nerves, was under the enemy’s control.
He could not even move his fingers.
“What a delicate brain. It is exactly the same as the brain of the ‘Li Yao personality’. It is a s.h.i.+ning, splendid artwork. Cough cough cough.
The face of the will of the earth turned from pale to flushed. It coughed softly, but it did not relax its control over the brain of the Red Pole. It was not until it was certain that every brain cell of the Red Pole was under its control that it narrowed its eyes and shook its head. “It’s a pity that your ideas are too simple. Now that you know that I am the creator and manager of the prison, how can you only have one super privilege?
“Of course, you have no other options. Your original winning rate is almost zero. You can only count on your opponent’s stupidity and low-level mistakes.
“Forget it. I’m having the old habit of talking to germs again. Let’s put an end to this as soon as possible and put an end to your suffering! First, it was Li Yao’s personality. Now, it’s the mental devil’s personality. If both of them are under my control, the remaining soul fragments and the h.e.l.l Breakers will all be too weak to withstand a single blow. It’s time to put an end to the clumsy riot!”
The silver threads of the will of the earth marched toward the deepest part of Red Pole’s soul again.
In the last attack, its intrusion triggered the barrier hidden in the deepest part of the soul of the Red Pole Star and triggered tremendous lightning and countless memory pieces.
But this time, the will of the earth had come prepared, and the Red Pole was too weak to resist. It could only watch the enemy march forward and kick open the gate of its ‘soul palace’.
However, the depths of the ‘soul palace’ were empty.
“What?”
The will of the earth could not believe its senses. The astonishment and shock on the Red Pole Star’s face were s.h.i.+fted to its own face. “Why is your soul so weak? It’s impossible. The ‘b.l.o.o.d.y Demon Persona’ should be an existence stronger than the ‘Li Yao Persona’. Where is the strength of your soul? Why is your soul so weak? It is just an empty sh.e.l.l. There is nothing except the sound, light, and electricity that you demonstrated just now. How are you qualified to be the leader of the Ark Foundation?”
Red Pole Star looked at him in silence, his eyes full of mockery.
He did not speak, nor could he. His central nerves were still under the enemy’s control. He was like a fish on a chopping block waiting to be butchered.
However, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. It was hard to say who would be the chopping block and who would be the fis.h.!.+
With a gloomy face, the will of the earth loosened the tongue and vocal cords of the Red Pole Star.
“Acting skills.”
Red Pole Star smiled like a hoodlum. “I am the leader of the Ark Foundation based on my excellent acting skills. I don’t know what you are so excited about. I never said that I was the ‘b.l.o.o.d.y Demon Personality’ from the beginning to the end!”
