Chapter 317: Deceit and Treachery, Yin Spirit Facing the Tribulation

~9 min read 1,708 words

"Azure Dragon 73 has lost response..."

"Azure Dragon 49 has lost response..."

"Azure Dragon 16 is retreating toward the southeast, the target Giant is in pursuit... Azure Dragon 16 has lost response..."

"New enemy sighted, suspected of being able to control air or summon a Tatsumaki, hurricane reaction observed, speed is very high, we..."

"Vermilion Bird 08 has lost response, target footage not returned."

A massive amount of communication was summarized in the channel without pause, and was automatically recorded and archived by high-level AI, then synchronized and reported to the field commander—Tianjie.

Listening to one comrade after another lose their lives, Tianjie's gaze was as cold as iron; he took that astonishingly long Special Item sniper rifle from his back.

Although he was not as skilled in sniping as 【Critical Sniping】, nor could he perform that kind of ultra-long-range sniping of hundreds of kilometers, there was one thing: he was extremely confident in the power of his sniping.

Tianjie is a name of a star mansion, also known as the Virtual Mansion; because the Crying Star, Weeping Star, Defeated Mortar, and other constellations are nearby, this star has had an ominous meaning since ancient times.

And in ancient times, the Virtual Mansion governed autumn, which also held the meaning of solemn killing.

He chose such a codename in the Nantianmen Project, which already reflected his style of conduct.

The muscles in Tianjie's left arm proliferated explosively, supporting the slender stock of the Gauss Sniper Rifle, and his eyes instantly turned a deep blue, a color like that of a gemstone.

This could not be considered a very precious Magic Eye, but even an ordinary modified Gem Magic Eye, in the hands of a Reincarnator and combined with specific construction, was enough to kill many people.

He instantly gained the effects of long-distance vision, X-ray vision, and a slight 【Future Sight】; he raised the sniper rifle, and his whole body slowly floated upward.

On this special Gauss Sniper Rifle, a Magic Power core lit up rapidly.

It was not just the power of the sniper rifle itself; the Magic Power within his body was also surging.

He swayed the sniper rifle, his line of sight having already captured the Reincarnator three kilometers away who was wrapping themselves in their own power to interfere with the capture of imaging equipment.

After aiming for a moment, he pulled the trigger.

Bang!

The massive force pushed Tianjie back from the air and onto the ground.

The air in front of him caved in for an instant, and then, accompanied by the violent sound of the gunshot, the bullet pierced through all the air.

Not even a vapor trail appeared.

Under the infusion of Magic Power, the electromagnetic bullet of the Gauss Sniper Rifle shattered all the woods along its path; a huge void was carved in a straight line through the forest, and its destination was the hurricane that happened to appear there.

Boom!

The hurricane shattered with a roar, and a figure appeared from within; this was a woman with fine, light blue hair, her build tall, looking no different from a man at first glance.

Her features were also very rugged, with a light blue tattoo pattern on half of her face.

At this moment, the arrogant smile on this woman's face had not yet dissipated, but the strength and body temperature of her body were rapidly draining away.

She looked at the shattered Barrier and protective talisman in front of her, then looked down at her own chest, where a huge void had destroyed almost all of her internal organs.

Furthermore, a powerful surge of Magic Power was suppressing her Regeneration ability; although her Regeneration ability could not heal such a degree of injury without a Special Item, that damned Magic Power was killing her cells with an incomparably stinging sensation.

"Careful, it's 【Tianjie】, the one attacking us is from Dongxia..."

Bang!

In the second gunshot, the woman's head exploded completely, and having lost control of the hurricane, her corpse slammed into the ground.

【You have killed Reincarnator bv82154662 in the real world, Killing Points +1】

【Calculating the strength ratio of both sides】

A series of messages refreshed on the space panel; Tianjie knew that the woman was likely the Reincarnator codenamed 【Fengxi】, a quite powerful Ability User who had once caused a huge disturbance in White Elephant Country.

He pressed his headset and spoke.

"The enemy in the hurricane is dead, Vermilion Bird squad continue to search for the target."

The battle was still continuing; that Giant had already reached a dead end and was crazily attacking everything around it.

Tianjie did not fire again; this kind of Reincarnator without any special abilities was just right for the 【Nantianmen Project】 to train troops.

Only by truly completing a mature tactical system could they possibly defend order and hunt other Reincarnators without relying on him or Elite Reincarnators like 【Song Xian】.

Even if the price was death, this experience had to be accumulated.

Tianjie suddenly felt the surrounding air grow somewhat cold; he turned his head and saw a pitch-black Kage sinking into the ground of the forest; he frowned and took out infrared equipment, but still saw no abnormality.

He maintained his composure, pressed his headset to adjust the channel, and spoke.

"This is Nantianmen Project First Action field commander Tianjie, suspected observation of Yin Spirit and Cursed Spirit type creatures, exceeding response range, requesting cooperation from Ability Users."

"This is Heavenly Palace, request received, currently transferring to the Ability User Dispatch Center."

"Ability User Dispatch Center has received the request, reinforcements will arrive in approximately two hours, please preserve your effective strength."

He watched his surroundings with cold eyes, but did not discover any further movement from that Yin Spirit.

Is a third-party Reincarnator observing the situation...

Tianjie had a speculation in his heart; his gaze patrolled, and he suddenly raised his gun and fired toward another direction.

Bang! ——

In a dense forest on the border of Kokang, Bai Cangshu stood on the treetops with his hands behind his back.

A black Yin Spirit appeared from the ground and then merged into his body.

He savored the scene he had seen from the other party's Spirit Body when the Yin Spirit Possession occurred.

Exoskeleton armor, combat-type robot dogs, the Armored Giant from the world of Attack on Titan, the Reincarnator who manipulated hurricanes, and that official Reincarnator using a special sniper rifle...

He began to have some understanding of the Dongxia official combat style; it was very clear that this combat plan was prepared quite thoroughly, and they even had rough preparations for the abilities and types of the target Reincarnators.

He suddenly clicked his tongue and revealed a strange smile.

Reincarnators are full of deceit toward one another; in this situation, it is indeed easy to suffer betrayal.

"How is it? The battle over there, who has the upper hand?"

Li Qingzi threw away a remote control behind her; the drone she had prepared had already been destroyed, and she could not see the situation on the scene.

Bai Cangshu merely smiled playfully.

"For the moment, the Dongxia special forces have the upper hand; they can probably kill a few Reincarnators, though they will suffer some losses themselves, but well..."

"The battles of Reincarnators are not always so straightforward."

Although Dongxia's operational plan could be considered effective, it was not novel enough; at the very least, the current combat methods were all within Bai Cangshu's expectations.

Exploiting image transmission, the greatest weakness of Reincarnators, was a method almost every weakling would choose when facing them; after arriving in Myanmar North and learning of Moye's power, his first reaction was likewise to utilize this means.

This method was naturally effective during the Intelligence preparation phase, but among Reincarnators, there were also many types with bizarre abilities.

Just as Bai Cangshu had just used the Tese of 【Calamity-Responding Yin Spirit】 to release the Yin spirits within his body for reconnaissance, the troops over there had no better way to respond.

This led Bai Cangshu to two conclusions.

First, there must still be a secondary contingency plan within Dongxia, or rather, that so-called 【Nantianmen Project】 must have another set of plans for dealing with Reincarnators with special abilities, beyond this type of technological cluster warfare.

Second, on the side of the End Sun, there is a mole!

That mole sold the Intelligence of the Reincarnators responsible for receiving and transmitting on their side in Myanmar to Dongxia, which is why they were caught off guard by the targeted attacks.

Boom!

A massive explosion erupted from several dozen kilometers away, and faint red flames could be seen rising into the sky.

That location was precisely the center of the Kokang Special Zone, the place where the four great families resided.

Bai Cangshu shook his head, turned, and tossed out a long, narrow blue-and-white single-person skiff; he stepped onto it with both feet, and a powerful electric current surged from his heart.

The next moment, the Cloud Dial at the rear of the skiff began to operate, and Li Qingzi also stood at the back of the skiff; the two broke through the air and immediately ascended into the sky, trailing clouds behind them.

"Ha, at a time like this, we should also get a piece of the pie!"

——

"Hongye, where exactly are you?!"

"We have been attacked by Dongxia; there are powerful snipers among the enemies, we need your reinforcements!"

The voice in the earpiece was anxious, but the woman simply removed the earpiece and crushed it in her hand.

She sighed and said,

"Sorry everyone, but who told me I still have a family to take care of..."

Immediately, she raised her head, her face devoid of guilt, wearing a smile instead.

That smile made Ming Qichang's heart turn cold.

"Miss Hongye, is there a problem?"

Hongye held up a finger, and flames ignited at her fingertip.

Seeing the other party use a Superpower right before his eyes, Ming Qichang did not yet understand the meaning, but another hired Reincarnator standing in the room, wearing a suit, had his expression change drastically.

"Watch out, she is going to..."

Boom!

Crimson flames exploded violently.
