79. Chapter 79: Sharp Blade

Mystic Object self-protection?

This bizarre skeleton mural really possessed incredible and strange power. It seemed that it wouldn't be so simple for Li Yi to destroy this mural, but the more this was the case, the more he had to do it.

Such an evil thing, even if it is a Mystic Object, so what? If it's destroyed, it's destroyed. Otherwise, keeping it is also a disaster.

Thinking of this, Li Yi didn't hesitate to pull the bolt and load again. The second red bullet was ready.

Without hesitation, he aimed at the skeleton mural on the wall again.

As soon as this action was done, there was an immediate change nearby.

In the shadows all around, one dried corpse after another walked out. These dried corpses were all practitioners who had been trapped to death in the illusion. After their consciousness was extinguished, their bodies were still there, controlled by the bizarre mural, becoming existence like walking corpses. And these dried corpses also possessed the strength they had before they died, which could not be underestimated.

"Although this skeleton mural of yours is very evil, I have a gun." Li Yi took advantage of the fact that those dried corpses hadn't taken action yet and immediately pulled the trigger.

This time he wasn't interfered with.

With a gunshot, the bullet flew out.

But at the same time, the dried corpses that appeared rioted in unison, roaring and wailing like fierce ghosts coming back to life, and all of them rushed over.

Just in an instant, a dried corpse blocking the front was like being bombarded by a cannonball, instantly exploding, and the incomplete limbs splashed everywhere, without any movement anymore. But the other dried corpses didn't pay attention at all and still rushed straight toward Li Yi, as if they wanted to tear this intruder to pieces.

"Boom!"

A violent vibration came, as if the whole building shook, and that red bullet finally accurately landed on the skeleton mural on the white jade wall.

The collision of the power of the Mystic Object and the power of the firearm.

However, a shocking thing happened.

The white jade-like skeleton mural withstood a shot from an extraordinary sniper rifle and remained intact. The bullet had long since shattered and splashed everywhere, but the skeleton was still bright and fair, shining.

"Are you kidding me? This is fine?" When Li Yi saw it clearly, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

This power of firearm could even shoot and kill extraordinary creatures. Now, hitting the Mystic Object actually had no effect.

But now there was no time to pay attention to this.

The remaining dried corpses had already arrived.

"A group of dried corpses that don't know how many days they've been dead also want to kill me?" Li Yi roared at this moment. He abandoned the gun and raised his hand to punch out.

"Bang!"

The fist energy exploded, and the head of a dried corpse rushing over was instantly smashed by him. Afterward, the withered and shriveled body fell to the ground, twitched twice, and then had no movement at all. It seemed that after the corpse was damaged to a certain extent, even the skeleton mural couldn't control it anymore.

Seeing that one punch was effective, Li Yi's confidence greatly increased. At this moment, he was like a fierce beast killing into a flock of sheep, using both fists and feet, killing toward those attacking dried corpses.

Although he suffered some attacks on his body, the defense of the clothes on his body was amazing, and these attacks were not worth mentioning at all and could be completely resisted.

Just in a moment, the remaining dried corpses were beaten to death by him alive.

"Although these dried corpses have the strength they had before they died, they don't have the brains they had before they died. The action and killing are very rigid, and they don't know how to change and retreat. They are completely puppets. Unless the quantity is amazing, they can't pose a certain threat to me." Li Yi evaluated them like this after dealing with these dried corpses.

Afterward, his gaze turned, and he stared coldly at the skeleton mural not far away again.

"I don't believe this ghostly thing can't be destroyed. One shot was blocked by the dried corpse just now, which reduced part of the power. I'll try another shot."

He was somewhat unconvinced at this moment, put another special bullet into the sniper rifle, and then pulled the bolt and loaded, all in one go.

Aiming at the same position, Li Yi pulled the trigger again.

He wanted to see if the power would stack if two bullets hit the same spot, shattering that skeleton mural.

"Boom!"

The roar of the firearm rang out, and the huge recoil made Li Yi retreat half a step. However, the practitioner's body was strong, and this bit of recoil didn't count for anything. His eyes were bright and shining, and then he stared dead at the mural not far away.

The bullet accurately hit the skeleton's brow center on the mural.

Under the sudden collision, powerful power erupted, and the ground nearby shook. Immediately afterward, the bullet shattered, and fragments splashed everywhere, splashing up a burst of dust and gravel.

The mural was still intact.

The skeleton was the same as before, pinching the treasure seal, sitting on the lotus platform, with a peaceful expression, smiling but not smiling.

"Damn, it's really useless."

Li Yi couldn't help but curse. At this moment, he had to believe that the extraordinary M200 sniper rifle in his hand really couldn't shatter this wall mural suspected to be a Mystic Object.

If it couldn't be shattered, it couldn't be destroyed. That is to say, the illusion shrouding this building was still maintained, and Captain Zhang Lei and others were still trapped in it, unable to escape.

But afterward, a question popped into Li Yi's mind.

Since the weapon in his hand couldn't destroy this wall mural, why did this mural want to control the walking corpses to protect itself?

Was it afraid of something?

Or was it afraid of something?

In other words, there must be something on Li Yi that could destroy this mural. Only then would this skeleton mural notice the danger and need to control the dried corpses to attack Li Yi, or even protect itself.

Wait.

A flash of inspiration appeared in Li Yi's mind, and he suddenly thought of something.

He reached into his pocket and took out something.

It was a half-piece bronze coin.

However, bizarrely, the bronze coin at this moment was also emitting a faint green light, looking extraordinary.

"The Mystic Object itself can also be used as a kind of weapon... The skeleton mural is not afraid of the sniper rifle in my hand, but is afraid of this incomplete coin on me. If I'm not mistaken, this bronze coin can destroy this mural."

Li Yi stared at the incomplete bronze coin in his hand.

He felt that this guess was correct.

"Then let's try. Anyway, there's no one here, and I don't worry about this incomplete Mystic Object in my hand being exposed."

He took a deep breath, immediately put away the sniper rifle, and then held this incomplete coin and walked toward the white jade wall not far away with big strides.

Li Yi was vigilant about the surroundings, guarding against the danger that might come at any time.

But fortunately, the surroundings were safe.

The bizarre skeleton on the mural might have appeared in this world for too short a time, and there were not many dried corpses accumulated nearby. After clearing a batch before, no more appeared. If it really gave this thing some time to control hundreds or thousands of dried corpses, then he would only be able to run away now.

Very quickly.

Li Yi successfully stood in front of the skeleton mural.

No longer affected by the illusion, he held this coin in his hand, raised his hand, and drew a heavy stroke on the skeleton mural.

The bronze coin was not sharp at all, but at this moment, it actually left a deep scratch on the indestructible skeleton mural.

Li Yi was stunned for a moment: "This coin is usually dull, and even the palm can't be cut, but now it can actually destroy other Mystic Objects? It seems that this coin is not simple, and there are other secrets inside."

Afterward, he realized that this incomplete coin was not just an ordinary Mystic Object. This was also the first time Li Yi used it as a weapon, and he didn't expect it to have such an effect.

However, after he destroyed it like this, it might have turned a complete Mystic Object into an incomplete Mystic Object, and its value was greatly reduced.

But this gap also made the illusion that could originally shroud the whole building become extremely unstable at this moment.

Li Yi's eyes clearly saw that a circle of invisible halo outline was shrinking rapidly, and the light emitted from the skeleton mural also dimmed a bit instantly.

Clearly, the illusion was dissipating.

But at the same time.

Outside the building.

Zheng Gong, Fan Feng, and others who were responsible for guarding had their expressions change drastically at this moment.

Because they saw many vehicles driving toward this side from all directions. These vehicles had no report, directly crossed the warning tape set up by the Investigation Bureau, and even ignored all the warnings they issued.

"What's going on?" Zheng Gong didn't know why, and his expression was slightly uneasy.

Fan Feng's expression sank and said: "They are wanderers from the abandoned city area. Their noses are really sharp, and they came as soon as they smelled the scent. Be careful. These are all vicious guys. The identity of an investigator can't bluff them. Only absolute strength and tough means can make them retreat."

"But now they are all trapped in the building, and the other reinforcements are still on the way and haven't arrived. There are only a few of us left here." Zheng Gong's expression changed drastically.

"No way, we can only block them as much as possible." Fan Feng took a breath and said: "You are responsible for negotiating with them, and I will cover you in the dark. Maybe they are afraid of the sniper rifle in my hand and can delay some time."

"Good." Zheng Gong gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement.

At this moment.

The vehicles in the distance had already driven over. These vehicles stopped one after another at the entrance of the building. Counting carefully, there were ten of them.

As the vehicles stopped, the doors opened.

A large number of practitioners walked out of the vehicles. Although they were dressed in old-fashioned clothes, their skin was rough, and their hair was messy, their eyes flashed with fierce light.

Being able to stay in that abandoned city area for a long time and survive, there was no simple character among them; they were all ruthless people.

However, this group of people was not without a leader.

A burly bald man was squinting his eyes and looking at this building at this moment.

His name was Wei Bin, an expert who had opened his Spirit Perception, and he was a figure in Tianchang City.

"Hey, kid, where did your boss Zhang Lei go? Did he die inside? I received information that there is a suspected Mystic Object in this building, so I came to take a look. If I'm lucky, I'll collect the corpse for Zhang Lei by the way." Wei Bin looked at Zheng Gong and asked with a smile.

"Wanderers from the abandoned city area, you have crossed the line. Leave here immediately, otherwise, you will be responsible for the consequences."

Zheng Gong glared at this group of people. Although he was uneasy in his heart, he had no intention of retreating at all.

"Wei Bin, take action immediately and kill him. Zhang Lei has likely folded today. As long as we take over this building today, whatever is inside will be ours, right?" A man with gloomy eyes on the side said coldly.

"Hmm, that makes sense. But before that, we have to deal with the sniper on the other side. Otherwise, it won't be good to be stared at all the time." Wei Bin suddenly raised his head and grinned at the window of a nearby building.

At this moment.

Fan Feng, who was aiming at the other side with a sniper rifle, had his expression change drastically, and the hair on his body stood up.

Can he lock onto himself from such a long distance?

This kind of induction is simply too terrible.
