Chapter 867: Unrevivable Curse?! Gone Forever!

The two faced each other, their gazes meeting and sparking countless sparks.

Lu Zhiwei halted her forward‑leaning body, her complexion extremely grim.

Lu Zhiwei turned her head and saw that the giant that had been carrying her remained motionless.

That therefore meant…

Su Qi came alone.

It was caused by Mind Reading.

Or had it already predicted that she would do this?

At present, the passage into the Inside the Building Entity is blocked.

Su Qi stood outside the Time Slowdown‑covered area, eyeing the scene like a tiger.

Lu Zhiwei contemplated a way to escape, forcing herself to endure the restlessness within.

For now, as long as Lu Zhiwei does not leave this area.

Su Qi cannot do anything to Lu Zhiwei.

But…

The Innate Talent lasts only five minutes.

After five minutes, she will inevitably have to clash swords with Su Qi.

One with Third-tier Gene Modification.

The other with Fourth Tier.

Moreover, the opponent can also control monsters in battle.

From any perspective, Su Qi clearly holds an absolute advantage.

Not to mention she has lived so many years, her experience being seasoned.

"A head‑on clash seems impossible; we must find another method," Lu Zhiwei glanced sideways.

That is the back door of the Building Entity.

Yesterday Su Yang informed her of this fact.

But…

Running from her current position to the back door takes a full fifteen seconds.

Su Qi clearly will not give her a chance.

She cannot defeat the foe head‑on, nor can she temporarily evade the sharp edge.

Now she is forced into a dead‑end with nowhere to escape!

"If it weren't for Su Yang's protection, you would already be a dead soul under my command," Su Qi said flatly.

"You vile woman, you have repeatedly endangered my life; I haven't even settled scores with you, yet you are the one who first complains as the villain," Lu Zhiwei sneered.

She vaguely remembers the good deeds Su Qi did for her.

On the first day, Su Qi pushed her out to attract the Forest Giant's hatred.

Had she not been lucky, she would have already been devoured.

Subsequent unpleasant incidents occurred, but Lu Zhiwei never took them to heart.

On the contrary, yesterday she saved her life.

Putting gratitude aside, the other still intends to take her life.

"I don't think highly of you; you've survived this far only because of your Innate Talent," Su Qi said bluntly.

"Innate Talent is the player's natural ability; it is also part of personal strength," Lu Zhiwei said aloud while wildly scheming an escape.

"Players who rely solely on Innate Talent to survive, when they encounter any restricted extreme environment, inevitably face a dead end," Su Qi said.

"That spares you the trouble of worrying," Lu Zhiwei retorted.

"You really want to stay alive, don't you?" Su Qi asked.

"Obviously, do you intend to die?" Lu Zhiwei laughed at her words.

She was not amused.

Rather, she laughed in extreme anger.

Su Qi fell silent at this.

It seemed she was seriously pondering the question.

Seeing the opponent's expression, Lu Zhiwei was left baffled.

Such a question still required thought?

What kind of thought process does she have?

"Death itself isn't scary; what's terrifying is being unable to resurrect," Su Qi said.

"Your Old Era Remnant Faction can resurrect infinitely as long as they have Faith Value; could your master be lacking that?" Lu Zhiwei said.

"It may be so for others, but members of Taboo cannot resurrect; they have only one life, that is the rule!" Su Qi said seriously.

Hm?

Looking at her serious expression, Lu Zhiwei did not feel any doubt.

Taboo is that strict?

Not even granting anyone an extra life?

"So you're very afraid of death; you fear you cannot depart peacefully," Lu Zhiwei said.

"When you reach my age, you'll understand… death is the most commonplace thing, yet the most unwillingly faced," Su Qi said.

She did not refute this.

Although playing Death Game can make many people become numb.

But often, when Desire is filled, even the proud will become afraid.

Especially those who have tasted the flavor of power.

Even more, they dare not.

"Your goal is Su Yang, right? He's run away; you should be chasing him, so why are you holding onto me?" Lu Zhiwei asked.

"You are his former acquaintance; players of the New Era cannot escape bonds and attachments. As long as you are threatened, he will naturally appear of his own accord," Su Qi explained.

"Having said all that, it's nothing more than a fear of entering the Building Body," Lu Zhiwei said, outwardly calm but internally anxious beyond measure.

Because of Time Slowdown…

It's about to end!

"Killing you is like slaughtering a dog; why bother going in for adventure?" Su Qi weighed the Shovel, looking ready to strike.

Lu Zhiwei saw this, her gaze heavy; she was about to seize a weapon when she suddenly remembered the Shovel had already been taken by Su Yang.

Now only an Electric Gun remains.

She gripped the gun's handle and said, "Then let's see whether Su Yang will appear as you wish."

As soon as the words fell, the Innate Talent suddenly failed.

At that moment, Su Qi suddenly clenched the Shovel and surged forward.

"He will!"

…

Inside the Building Body.

The two identical-looking individuals met.

One on the left, one on the right, standing three meters apart.

"Arrived?"

"Shouldn't (they) have come?"

"Yue Zhao is dead; you can rest assured staying here."

"Even if he were still alive, it wouldn't be cause for fear."

"What's the situation outside?"

"Not delayed; Lu Zhiwei is facing the enemy alone, probably cursing her mother right now."

"Cursing who?"

"Of course it's Su Yang; could it be me?"

At that remark, Su Yang let out a dumbfounded laugh.

Given her temperament, she might indeed do something similar.

"I've helped you so much; shouldn't I get some return?" Su Yang said.

"I said, Yue Zhao is dead," Su Yang said.

"That is your gift, not mine," Su Yang shook his head.

"The freedom you want, I cannot give," Su Yang also shook his head.

The two stared at each other for a moment, when Su Yang suddenly spoke, "I want a promise from you."

"Please speak."

"After the matter is accomplished, I will not interfere!"

"Just that?"

"Just that!"

"Fine, I accept."

Su Yang grinned, "Speaking of it, you're actually quite interesting; you have so many things packed in your Brain, yet you keep them bottled up in your heart. Doesn't that tire you?"

"What you understand is only the tip of the iceberg; born in chaotic times, one cannot control one's fate, and you also understand that," Su Yang spread his hands.

"Although I am a part of you, I do not agree with your methods," Su Yang said.

Even though it inherited some of Su Yang's memories.

But its personality and thought patterns are precisely shaped by that portion of memory.

That also means…

As time passes, the more it contacts and thinks, it will gradually develop its own personality.

And it will drift farther from its original self.

"You are ultimately not me," Su Yang said softly.

"But you need me," Su Yang said.

Su Yang reached out, snatched the Shovel from its hand, and said, "It's time to end this."

"Alright, I'll wait here for good news," Su Yang said, reaching out to grasp the person's shoulder before him.

He then muttered silently.

When the two opened their eyes, a marvelous reaction occurred instantly.

Although their outward appearance remained identical.

But their essence had undergone an earth‑shattering transformation.

"From now on, you remain you, and I remain me," Su Yang said.

"Quite a nice experience; I actually kind of like this Half-Dead feeling," Su Yang smiled faintly.

"I've prepared a surprise for you; remember to sign for it when the time comes!"

"Goodbye!" Su Yang waved his hand.

Su Yang stared as its Silhouette vanished into the darkness, a strange hue flashing in his eyes.

"Again?"

"Heh, according to my Vision Perception it should be…"

"Never again!"
