Chapter 453

Fortunately, the contingency plan he had left within the Central Court was proceeding according to schedule. As long as Zero could achieve complete Living Corpse transformation, the most critical step of the plan could be considered a success.

Even with an unforeseen variable like Lu Li, the situation was not entirely unacceptable.

Thinking this, Xiro's mood improved slightly, but soon, he looked toward the direction of the Central Court again, his face filled with astonishment.

Just a moment ago, he had sensed an aura no less powerful than the Living Corpse Zero descending upon the Boundary City!

"This is impossible!" For a moment, even with Xiro's temperament, he couldn't help but let out a low growl.

Strength not inferior to the Living Corpse Zero meant that the Living Corpse Zero could potentially be killed, which also meant that the most important link in his plan risked being destroyed, leading to the failure of the entire scheme!

With one Fallen Fallen Mode Fallen Mode Change after another exceeding his plans, Xiro couldn't help but wonder if this was a punishment from the gods.

Or perhaps, everything he did was being watched under the gaze of the gods, and they were simply treating all his actions as if watching a clown, and now, they were personally intervening to disrupt all his plans.

Thinking of this, Xiro's entire body couldn't help but tremble. He had sacrificed so much for his plan; if the final result were to end like a clown's performance, he would absolutely collapse.

"Xiro!" Seeing Xiro trembling all over, Ronak and Flora exchanged a glance, both sensing the gravity of the situation, and let out a low shout to snap him out of it.

"Hoo! It's Finish Finish Time to go back to the Central Court!" Exhaling a long breath, Xiro dropped this sentence and silently walked toward the Central Court.

Return to the Central Court!

Ronak and Flora were both stunned by Xiro's decision, especially since, although they had defected and left the Central Court, one thing could not be erased: they were indeed among the founders of the Central Court.

Hearing that Xiro wanted to return to the Central Court now, both of them felt very conflicted, especially when associating it with those two suddenly descended auras.

Xiro was definitely hiding something, but unfortunately, he had no intention of saying it.

However, if they really returned to the Central Court next, perhaps they would be able to witness it all with their own eyes.

Thinking of this, Ronak and Flora did not press further but followed Xiro's pace.

Eastern Ancient Street, the Research Institute, the Bay Side City, the Old Town, and the Harbor District—at the same Finish Finish Time Xiro set off for the Central Court, the other Artifact Users in the Boundary City who had sensed the anomaly at the Central Court also set off at this moment.

The two energies that suddenly appeared in the Central Court were too strong; even from such a distance, they were enough to make them feel panicked. If they didn't confirm it with their own eyes, they would never be able to rest easy.

"A bit interesting," at the White Night Pavilion, when the Living Corpse Zero appeared, Xia's expression still hadn't changed much, but as Omegamon Alter-A 040X appeared, a trace of astonishment couldn't help but flash across the face of this White Night Pavilion owner.

She hadn't expected that, besides the White Night Pavilion, the Boundary City actually possessed an existence capable of contending with the Living Corpse Zero in terms of strength.

Of course, this refers to native Artifact Users within the Boundary City, not otherworldly travelers like Lu Li.

However, even among the otherworldly travelers who entered the Boundary City, not everyone possessed the strength to contend with the Living Corpse Zero.

The number of such otherworldly travelers was still very rare.

Furthermore, even if one happened to encounter an otherworldly traveler with such strength, whether they would happen to run into the Living Corpse Zero was another uncertain factor.

After all, every reincarnation represented a new script, and every reincarnation had different possibilities and directions of development.

In other words, not every reincarnation would have the appearance of the Living Corpse Zero. However, once the Living Corpse Zero appeared, it could almost predict that this reincarnation was about to restart.

"Let's go, let's go see, see what the ending of this reincarnation will be." Xia stood up and spoke to Ashelia.

The figures of the two disappeared from the White Night Pavilion in an instant, leaving only the two kittens, Bai and Ye, staring at each other.

853, The Existence of Rules

Absolute Stasis!

At the muzzle of the Tyrannosaurus Cannon, a blue radiance flashed by, and invisible energy also swept past at this moment with the muzzle of the Tyrannosaurus Cannon as the center, spreading toward the surrounding space.

Being swept by the invisible energy, Antoneva and the others only felt a sense of oppression; other than that, they didn't feel any discomfort.

"A rule-level ability?" Bao Si, however, revealed a thoughtful look, a trace of solemnity flashing in the depths of her eyes.

This was definitely a rule-level ability, or one could say, a power-level ability!

In the Eternal Land, Bao Si had once seen Omegamon Alter-A X, so she didn't show as much surprise as Antoneva and the others when Lu Li summoned this Digimon.

But now, after Omegamon Alter-A X used Absolute Stasis, this one of the Four Great Enchantresses couldn't help but feel surprise in her heart.

This energy, even if it acted upon her, would be effective!

"Sister Sister Daji once said that Omegamon Alter-A X has another more special ability, one that even she felt shocked by, and even produced a feeling that if she were hit, she might be wiped out, and there would be no way to resurrect."

"Could it be that the Young Master is harboring such an intention this Finish Finish Time?" Bao Si couldn't help but raise a guess in her heart.

Besides that, she also became interested in the special ability of Omegamon Alter-A X that Sister Sister Daji spoke of.

Although that fox was indeed not very reliable at times, Bao Si believed that she wouldn't lie to her about this.

"So strong!"

Above the area where the Central Court was located, a large number of Artifact Users gradually arrived in this area. Seeing Omegamon Alter-A X and the Living Corpse Zero, all the Artifact Users' eyes revealed expressions of horror.

Whether it was Omegamon Alter-A X or the Living Corpse Zero, the aura and energy fluctuations emanating from both far exceeded their imagination.

"Since when did the Central Court have such terrifying existences~?"

"It looks like they are on opposing sides, and haven't you noticed? That is a Living Corpse Artifact User!"

"Another Artifact User polluted by a Black Core and turned into a Living Corpse? However, in the past, even if Artifact Users turned into Living Corpses, their forms wouldn't have much difference and would maintain their original appearance."

"But the Living Corpse Artifact User before our eyes has had such a huge Fallen Fallen Mode Fallen Mode Change in appearance. Is its original body really an Artifact User, and not one of those monsters from another dimension?"

"Also, what exactly is fighting that Living Corpse Artifact User? Why can't I feel the aura of an Artifact User from it, yet it possesses such terrifying strength."

"Could it be that it is also a monster from another dimension?"

Although it wasn't only humans who could become Artifact Users, Omegamon Alter-A X really didn't look like an Artifact User on the outside.

Monsters from another dimension would destroy everything in front of them, even Living Corpse Artifact Users were no exception, but if normal Artifact Users and Living Corpse Artifact Users appeared in front of these monsters at the same Finish Finish Time, these monsters from another dimension would prioritize attacking the normal Artifact Users.

After all, Living Corpse Artifact Users were already tainted with a portion of the Black Core's aura, and to some extent, could be considered their accomplices; these monsters naturally wouldn't attack them first.

"It shouldn't be. If it were a monster from another dimension, the other party should prioritize attacking Antoneva and the others. Right now, it feels like the other party is protecting the Central Court instead."

However, some Artifact Users put forward different opinions. Omegamon Alter-A X and the Living Corpse Zero confronting each other had a performance that was clearly different from the habits of monsters from another dimension as they knew them.

For a Finish Finish Time, whispers echoed over the Central Court. These Artifact Users, who possessed considerable strength and fame in various areas of the Boundary City, all fell into discussion and speculation.

Speculating on who this Artifact User polluted by a Black Core and turned into a Living Corpse was, and speculating on what kind of existence Omegamon Alter-A X was.

However, one thing cannot be denied: the gazes these Artifact Users cast toward the Omegamon Alter-A X Hollow Zero were all filled with apprehension.

……

"How is this possible? It's him again!" Seeing Lu Li standing before Antoneva, Aemusha, and the others, Hiro could not help but let out another low exclamation. He had not expected to run into Lu Li again at such a Finish Finish Time.

It was not just Hiro; the expressions of Ronak and Flora also shifted slightly.

As two of the seven who founded the Central Court, and as former Artifact Users of the Central Court, the three of them were, aside from Antoneva, Aemusha, and the others, the people in this area most familiar with the Central Court.

Therefore, after arriving here, they very easily found a hiding spot from which they could clearly see the entire battlefield without being easily discovered.

Upon seeing the fully hollowed Zero, even Hiro, who had pushed all of this into motion, could not help but feel secretly startled. If it were such a fully hollowed Artifact User, it would indeed be the best tool to achieve his plan.

The premise, however, was that there existed no one within the Boundary City capable of contending with the Hollow Zero.

And in Hiro's original plan, only that mysterious Pavilion Master Xia in the White Night Pavilion perhaps possessed the ability to stop the Hollow Zero.

However, based on Hiro's investigation and understanding of that Pavilion Master Xia, the other party seemed to have no intention of interfering with the changes in the Boundary City, purely acting as a spectator to observe the development of the Boundary City.

This was fine; the other party would not suddenly jump out to stop his actions, which was also the reason he had the confidence to execute his plan.

Yet, who could have imagined that in the middle of his epic plan, a Lu Li would jump out and forcibly Fallen Fallen Mode Fallen Mode Change everything in his plan.

The other party was as if they had popped out from a rock; before this, he had absolutely no impression of the other party, nor did he have any information on them.

However, ever since Lu Li appeared, his plan had already been undergoing unexpected changes, including the sudden appearance of an existence within the Central Court capable of contending with the Hollow Zero.

Although he did not see the process of Lu Li summoning the Omegamon Alter-A X, Hiro was very well-informed about the situation of everyone in the Central Court; they absolutely did not have the strength to contend with the Hollow Zero.

Therefore, summoning the Omegamon Alter-A X could only be the work of Lu Li, this sudden variable!

854, The Deity Enters the Arena to Flip the Table

"A bit interesting," in a certain part of the Central Court area, Xia, who had also arrived at the scene, took a puff from her pipe, blew a smoke ring while watching the Omegamon Alter-A X confronting the Hollow Zero in the field, and spoke with interest.

Located behind Xia, Ashilia still had a calm gaze, as if everything happening before her was not enough to pique her interest.

The reason she had come here was merely because of Xia's suggestion.

If Hiro, Ronak, and the others relied on their familiarity with the Central Court to hide without being discovered by other Artifact Users, then Xia and Ashilia relied on their strength to directly mask their tracks.

Even though there were numerous Artifact Users in the Central Court area now, none of these Artifact Users had discovered the traces of the two.

"Hollow Zero, this should be the contingency left behind for the Central Court by that gray-white-haired kid. Under normal circumstances, once the Hollow Zero appears, it will accelerate the reincarnation of the Boundary City."

"Correspondingly, a storm of blood will also be stirred up within the Boundary City."

"This point is quite in line with that kid's actions, using any means necessary to achieve his goal." In the countless reincarnation resets of the Boundary City that Xia had experienced in the past, Hiro naturally had successful precedents, so Xia naturally knew that the Hollow Zero was something Hiro had single-handedly created. "However, if it is just to block the actions of the Hollow Zero, it cannot solve the reincarnation reset of the Boundary City." The number of reincarnation resets had been high, and although most of the Finish Finish Time, the Boundary City would quickly fall into a reincarnation reset under the ravages of the Hollow Zero.

But, among these countless possibilities, there were also storylines where the Hollow Zero was resolved; of course, this was a result obtained only after the Artifact Users of the Boundary City paid a great price.

However, the death of the Hollow Zero did not mean that the reincarnation reset of the Boundary City would end or be delayed just like that.

On the contrary, the death of the Hollow Zero would further accelerate the reincarnation reset of the Boundary City, because by that Finish Finish Time, the Deity would personally enter the arena, directly skipping all previous steps to initiate the reincarnation reset of the Boundary City.

Which is commonly known as flipping the table, or in other words, being a sore loser!
