Chapter 490: The True Hexagon Warrior

~8 min read 1,546 words

A Veteran Player from ten years ago.

His value goes without saying.

But the fact that he was stuck at Five-Star indicated that he was another restricted player.

Right at this moment.

Another five-person team arrived here. These five were all male. Judging from the color of the Liar-Slayers at their waists, they were all Ego or above. The leader was a Red Hair youth.

The Red Hair ignored Chen Ran's trio, his gaze landing on Shang Yun's five people. When he saw that there was actually an Id Tier player among their members...

"Let's go!"

The Red Hair immediately turned around, about to lead his team away from here.

Chen Ran secretly thought things were bad. The Ping Pong Ball he had been gripping tightly loosened, but the next moment, after falling to the ground, the Ping Pong Ball didn't bounce, but was exactly in a stationary state.

He looked at his four teammates: "It seems someone doesn't want us to leave."

The four people first glanced at the unbounced Ping Pong Ball on the ground, then drew the Liar-Slayers at their waists, staring fixedly at the five people opposite.

Shang Yun ignored them. Above his dead fish-like eyes, his eyelids lifted slightly, looking at Chen Ran.

Chen Ran glanced at his Watch. The time on the Watch had no skips whatsoever.

"What do you say?" The Red Hair asked Chen Ran, acting as if they were old acquaintances.

"It shouldn't be a time-based type."

The Red Hair nodded: "If it's not a time-based type, then it should be an effect similar to petrification. Assuming this conjecture is valid, the Ping Pong Ball falling on the ground will bounce for a period of time, but what we see is the Ping Pong Ball stopping exactly on the ground, indicating that the time we were petrified should be the time the Ping Pong Ball spent bouncing on the ground."

Speaking of this, he picked up the Ping Pong Ball on the ground and threw it to Chen Ran.

Chen Ran once again released the Ping Pong Ball in his hand from the same height.

Tap tap tap tap tap tap.

The Ping Pong Ball...

Kept bouncing on the ground, and every time the height of the bounce was less than half of the original height, it suddenly bounced back to the height of the first bounce, completely violating physics.

The eight people looked at Shang Yun's five people.

"No, bro, playing like this is meaningless," the Red Hair said solemnly.

Obviously, the several bounces that violated physics were due to someone taking the Ping Pong Ball and dropping it from the same height again.

Shang Yun's dead fish-like eyes glanced at the Ping Pong Ball bouncing from the ground. The next moment, the Ping Pong Ball disappeared, appeared in his hand, and with a gentle squeeze, the Ping Pong Ball flattened.

"Then don't play anymore. What I taboo the most is Capping in a Shallow Ditch, so I don't like others experimenting with the effects of my skills in front of me without any scruples, even if these people are like ants."

The Red Hair looked at him deeply.

'Speed is relative. When one party is stopped, the party that isn't stopped has a speed faster than the speed of light.'

'But there's a problem here. The players appearing in this world are at most Five-Star. Of course, there are also Six-Star players, but they basically came here to take refuge and don't participate in decryptions.'

'He should be a Five-Star!'

'Judging from us falling for the trick, his skill covers a large area. In other words, his teammates will also fall for it.'

'Looking at the team composition, for him to maximize the benefits of his skill, of course, the more teammates that aren't stopped, the better.'

'Therefore, in his team, there should also be a player with a Whisperer's Escape Room skill.'

'Just now, we didn't see him draw his gun, nor did the Secret Room turn black...'

'This means his team has at least one Virtual Overlay skill.'

'Not seeing the Secret Room turn black also means there is another skill that can make players present instantly lose consciousness or lose memory.'

'Summary: The five people opposite have a petrification skill, a Secret Room skill, a Virtual Overlay skill, an Ego or above skill that causes loss of consciousness or amnesia, and an Id Tier skill that immunizes against Virtual Overlays.'

'It could even be said that the skill causing loss of consciousness or amnesia might originally be the second effect of petrification.'

'If this is the case, then their team still has an unknown skill.'

'The team's composition is outrageously high!'

At this moment, the Red Hair also realized that he had encountered a top-tier Five-Star team.

The captains of such teams generally had the ability to advance to Six-Star at any time.

This wasn't even the most terrifying part. In the Hell Great Escape, except for the Pillar Rules on the eighteen pillars that were still present, all other rules or Common Sense in the 18th Level would temporarily disappear.

Simply put, players below Six-Star could, in the Hell Great Escape...

Obtain the Mental Cultivation Method for Ego!

And not be restricted by the two alliances.

'Not good!'

The Red Hair only felt his scalp go numb. He sized up the surrounding environment and found nothing anomalous, but when he tried to open his mouth to speak, he found that no matter what, he couldn't open his mouth...

'Fuck!'

'Break free!'

The next moment, bursts of stinging pain came from the Red Hair's mind. He looked at Shang Yun again, only to see Shang Yun holding an intact Ping Pong Ball in his hand.

Seeing the Red Hair's pained expression, the other seven people couldn't help but feel strange in their hearts. Then they heard him shout:

"Don't look into his eyes!"

Having said that, he made his four teammates hand over all their Points, and he also took out his own Points.

Then, facing Shang Yun, he knelt on both knees and placed all the Points in front, his arms pressed tightly against the ground, resembling a Five-Body Prostration: "These are all the Points of our team, let us go, and these Points will all be yours."

The next moment, the Points disappeared and appeared in Shang Yun's hands. He still had that appearance of lacking interest and said lightly:

"Get lost."

The Red Hair and his five people felt as if they had received a great amnesty, turning around and hurriedly running towards the door.

On the first floor, once again, only the eight of them remained.

"Very surprised?"

"Actually, I don't really like fighting with a group of players like you whose composition is very complex. After all, if I'm not careful, I might get dragged in. We came to this world mainly to seek wealth."

Shang Yun's personality was rather lazy. If he could earn money lying down, he naturally would be very willing to do so. It couldn't be helped; no matter how lazy he was, he had to first complete the KPI assigned by the Floor Master.

Shang Yun's words were already so obvious, but the three acted like reckless youths, with no intention of handing over their Points. After all, the three of them were all players from other spaces; their lives were worthless.

Chen Ran silently lit a Cigarette, his expression somewhat excited: "You used Distance-Free on the Red Hair just now, right? Looking at his appearance, it seems you did something in Distance-Free. By logic, players below Six-Star can break free from Distance-Free, yet he acted like that."

"Actually, I should have known long ago that in the Hell Great Escape, only the Pillar Rules take effect. Players can trade to obtain Mental Cultivation Methods that do not match their own Star Rating!"

Hearing this, Shang Yun had a strange expression on his face: "You wouldn't be thinking of obtaining the Method of Lingtai Second Realm Cultivation from me, would you? Do you think I look like a fool?"

Chen Ran ignored him, but rather thought about how Shen Yuwei and Liu Anfeng might have Ego-Tier Mental Cultivation Methods, and he should find time to negotiate with them.

However, they didn't mention the Method of Lingtai Second Realm Cultivation yesterday, which meant they most likely wouldn't give it to Chen Ran.

Chen Ran wasn't in a hurry either. His True Form had plenty of Points, and the Hell Great Escape had just begun. He had plenty of time to buy it from certain Six-Star players in the Ancient Tower.

But right now...

He looked at Shang Yun.

Their gazes met, and Distance-Free clashed. When his consciousness arrived in Distance-Free, Chen Ran found that this place was still a white world, giving a sense of powerlessness of having taken off one's pants but having nothing to do.

Without Shang Yun needing to make a move, Chen Ran directly broke free from Distance-Free.

'This guy is just like a tortoise shell, 360 degrees without blind spots aside, he himself doesn't give opponents any chances. Whenever there is a sign of trouble, he snuffs it out, not giving anyone a chance to find a flaw.'
