Chapter 165 Attack of the Protagonist 17

Earlier, Zen Dream had spat out blood and felt a pressure on his chest. His consciousness had flagged, and his body had been pushed along by a mysterious and powerful force. He had flown a long distance before slamming into a tree trunk and hanging weakly from it.

When he recovered, suppressing the pain that travelled through his body, he first lifted his head and looked upward. About ten meters away, he saw… a man in a purple suit holding a metallic rod and chasing after another person who was in a newbie outfit.

Zen Dream's face was covered in shock, and his lips hung half open. He mechanically pulled out the beer bottle from his inventory and poured some into his lips to balance out his shock. "Hmm… is it the illusion formed from the collision of Qi, or am I drunk?"

On the other side, in front of the old shrine, K3's Qi armor was already broken, and temporarily, he did not have the stamina to use any powerful skills. However, even though Feng Bujue's attacks seemed relentless, it would be very difficult for him to kill the Anomaly like that. In terms of data, this kind of attack only caused one percent of damage to Life Points, and furthermore, not every attack would amount to this standard.

But the disgusting thing was… this kind of constant fighting would influence K3's recovery speed. If he wanted to recover his stamina quickly, he had to find a way to escape Feng Bujue's relentless attacks and stay away from the man for at least ten seconds.

At the moment, with Feng Bujue's Life Points, he could only maintain Body Enhancement Spell for another twenty seconds. If K3 retaliated, there was an eighty percent chance that Feng Bujue would lose yet another piece of equipment. That was why he had been chasing after K3 like crazy.

However, K3 would not suffer this silently. Even without Qi armor, his physical ability was not affected. In terms of speed and strength, he should be about as powerful as Feng Bujue with the Body Enhancement Spell's buff. Was it really possible for him to lose to a wrench? That was truly unbelievable!

"Ah!" K3 raised his left arm to block the wrench. This hit seemed to have shattered a bone, but he did not care about that. He immediately used his left arm to attack, attempting to force Feng Bujue back. However, Feng Bujue leaped out of the way easily to avoid this punch. "Thanks to you, my fighting ability seems to have improved!"

Then, he turned and gifted K3 another whack from his wrench, and the hit connected with K3's knee.

The pain surged through K3, and the pain caused his knees to wobble. He went down on one knee. "How did you… manage this? With your data, you shouldn't have been able to survive until now. This is preposterous!"

Feng Bujue looked down on the man and uttered, "This is what they called the main character's plot armor."

"What the hell is that‽" K3 roared and launched a sudden sweeping kick. Feng Bujue jumped and evaded it again.

"The so-called main character's plot armor is…" Using the downward force, he aimed a punch at K3. "Shocking First Bullet!"

K3 was hit on the nose. His neck snapped back, and his whole body tittered backward.

"Destructive Second Bullet!" Feng Bujue made use of those last few seconds of Body Enhancement Spell and the fact that K3 had lost the Qi armor and continued his attack.

K3 had not fallen to the ground, and his chest was punched by Feng Bujue's fist that held the wrench. His head and legs curled forward forming a V that was laid to the side.

"Obliterating Third Bullet!" Feng Bujue listed those three lines from s-CRY-ed with satisfaction. One second before the body enhancement spell dissipated, the last punch landed on K3's cheek.

Fear visited K3 at that moment; he suddenly realized that his Life Points was continuously depleting, and they had dropped to a very dangerous level. Now that he had lost the protection of the Qi armor, if he received another blow from his foe at his vital organs, it would mean death. His physical form would perish and transmute into data fragments that did not have autonomy. When the scenario ended, he would be wiped out by the system.

A gold glint appeared. Feng Bujue made the pose that his foe was most afraid of. The last card from Death Poker appeared in between his fingers, and it was aimed at K3's throat.

"There is only one truth," Feng Bujue said. "Your time is up."

"I would… at this kind of place…" K3's eyes were hollow but clear-minded. At that moment, his eyes were filled with disbelief, fear, and anger, but the majority was a kind of sadness. He understood that his destiny had caught up to him.

"Yeah right!" When the card reached the Anomaly's neck, Feng Bujue suddenly stopped. He laughed while pausing at every guffaw. "Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!"

He put the Sorcery weapon and wrench away while retreating a few steps. "Afraid, aren't you?"

K3's forehead was covered with blood, and it already dripped down to his eyes, but he still widened his eyes in confusion to look at Feng Bujue. It did not cross his mind to climb up from the ground.

"Now, is it possible for us to converse civilly?" Feng Bujue asked.

K3 looked at the man with caution and slowly stood up from the ground.

Feng Bujue took a few steps back. "I'm warning you, if you still want to fight…"

"No… you have won," K3 said. Actually, the latter half of Feng Bujue's sentence was, 'if you still want to fight, then I'll have to surrender…'

"You want to know about the Anomalies, and I can tell you…" When K3 reached the latter half of his sentence, his speed became slower; it was as if he had suddenly lost the power of speech. His lips were moving, but no sound came from his throat.

A dimension crack silently appeared on K3's back. From that crack, a mercury-like substance leaked out. The material stuck to K3's body and slowly spread, starting from his back, crawling to his waist, his legs… Feng Bujue stood before K3 and saw clearly that there was a wing-like shape at the edge of the mercury pool. The meaning was unknown.

Feng Bujue had no idea what was really happening. Could it be K3's new ability? But based on his tone earlier, it did not sound like he wanted to fight anymore.

K3, who was completely covered by the mercury, did not struggle or move. His body was compressed into data streams and then pulled away by the blob of mercury into the dimension crack…

…

"So, that's what happened." The glow in K2's eyes faded. "You were able to directly pull me from the scenario and come here?"

X2 put her hand down and replied coldly, "This was a unique situation."

She looked at K2 severely. "One, even though the scenario wasn't over, you already possessed the qualifications to enter the inner world; two, I had to stop you from revealing information about us to the humans."

"Oh?" After hearing that, K2 asked, "Don't tell me, are level twos… always monitoring us level threes and fours?"

"Of course, that's impossible," X2 replied. "That would be too difficult, so was bringing you here…

"We were not monitoring you; you just happened to be there…"
