Kardashian's eyes widened. This was not the first time she faced death. She even knew clearly that this was just a death in the game. But the heart-wrenching pain suddenly swept over her. The Dragons next to her even found that her whole body was trembling, and the dense elemental fluctuations were in disorder. This was a sign that magic power was out of control or was about to explode …
"Ka, Kardashian!"
She hesitated to call out. After all, it was a little strange to call out her own name to someone who looked like her. But it did calm the latter down. Letting go of Roddy's body, Kardashian slowly stood up. Just as she was about to say something, she felt that the power that filled her body was rapidly declining.
The arcanist robe on her body disappeared, and so did the dragon horns. In a few seconds, she quickly returned to the appearance of an Elementalist. This made the female dragon a little confused. She said, "What, what's going on?"
Throwing away the Elementalist's staff, Kardashian looked up at "herself" in front of her. Suddenly, she realized that the most important problem was not that "the person in front of me is different from me". What really concerned whether she and Roddy could leave the "time and space prison" was actually another problem.
*****
When Roddy's HP hit zero and entered the "death realm," Edith who was in the "time and space tunnel" was shocked by the scene.
Her observation of the "time and space prison" was very limited. Entering a "prison" from the outside was like looking through a gap, so she did not realize that all this was just a scene in the game "Earthbreaker". After all, no matter how knowledgeable she was, she could not understand the concept of human technology on Earth. She instinctively thought that the "rescue mission" had failed. In a trance, she directly exited the "time and space tunnel" and appeared in the "core chamber."
Akasha and Sally, who had been waiting here for a long time, looked at her with hope. But when they saw Edith's lost expression, their hearts tightened.
"Is there … any progress?"
Akasha's voice was a little shaky. Her fingers that held the white bone staff were bulging because she used too much force.
Edith looked over stiffly and shook her head. "Roddy … is dead."
Clang!
The Viper's Kiss in Sally's hand fell to the ground. After a crisp sound, the three vipers quickly appeared beside her and lifted the scepter back to her hand. She couldn't believe what she had just heard. She wanted to say something, but her throat was inexplicably hoarse.
"Impossible … impossible!"
Akasha was in a daze for a moment. Then, she gritted her teeth and recovered. She took a step forward and said, "In any case … please bring him back!"
"Yes, yes … And Kardashian, she can still bring Roddy back!"
Sally was the youngest. At this moment, she was not the Duke of Eiffta, but a girl who was looking forward to her husband's return from the battlefield. Although she tried to echo Akasha's words, her tears could not stop falling … Both of them understood that Edith's magic level was the absolute authority. If she said that Roddy was dead, then there was probably no other possibility.
Edith knew that Roddy was not the only one in the "prison", but she did not say that she had just seen "two" Kardashian. She did not know how to explain this strange thing. Now that she heard their request, Edith also understood that she had lost her composure. She immediately returned to the "space tunnel", and this time … she let Sally hold the Viper's Kiss and stand in the middle of the "core room".
When the bottom of the scepter was inserted into the groove, a violent energy wave flashed through the tower. Edith's illusion disappeared, and Sally's tears continued to fall. She bit her lips and tried hard not to cry out loud. Akasha did not cry. She only looked at the ground under her feet, and the grayish-white fog of the white bone scepter spread unknowingly.
Her eyes lost focus, and the divine aura of the Viper Cross was gradually enveloped by the fog …

Amidst the whistling sound of the propeller, Jazz's gaze turned from the yellow sand to the screen in front of him. The real-time monitoring data had just been refreshed with a large amount of red data. Like a tsunami, instructions appeared one after another, indicating that the server of Earthbreaker had suffered a series of unprecedented attacks.
And now, the changes had completely calmed down, but Jazz was not as calm as he looked.
"Jazz! The sandstorm wind is too strong, we can't land normally at this rate! "
"Continue to advance to the target area."
Jazz's expression did not change, but after giving the instruction, his body suddenly trembled. The secretary beside him did not notice because she was looking out of the window. However, when she turned around, she let out an "Ah!" sound …
Because she realized that Jazz, who originally had some wrinkles on his face, had returned to his youthful state. His face was handsome, his skin was fair, and the aura he exuded was stronger than before …
"What's going on …"
Lowering his head to look at his hands, 'Sir' narrowed his eyes. Then, he took a deep breath and abruptly opened his eyes. "Tapris?"
*****
Roddy looked at the "Death Interface" that appeared in front of him, and inexplicably experienced a feeling of suffocation that he felt when he just floated up from the water.
Although he had brushed shoulders with death many times, what he had experienced before was pure "pain." As for what "death" was, Roddy had no concept. But at that moment, he really felt the scene of countless scenes flashing before his eyes.
What was strange was that the experiences of two lives unfolded in front of him at the same time.
He saw himself living in the imperial capital, sitting in a primary school classroom, all the way through high school exams, graduating from university, and finally lying in the cockpit of "Earthbreaker" …
Similarly, the scout "Roddy" living in Norland Village was born in a pile of straw by his mother. Later on, he struggled to survive. When he was nine years old, he fell into a river and almost drowned. When he was rescued by his companions, he was holding that ordinary necklace in his hand. The scene finally stopped at the scene of him patrolling the grasslands and encountering orcs. His horse fell, and his vision fell into darkness.
When he opened his eyes again, the familiar "Death Notification" made him breathe a sigh of relief. The feeling of reality and illusion was really uncomfortable. At present, Kardashian was in the mountains. If he chose "Resurrect from the Grave", he would probably have to run for a day without a horse. Thinking up to this point, Roddy felt there was no longer any point in reviving this account. In this' dead 'state, there was no way for him to chat with Kardashian, nor was there any way for him to type. All he could see was that the name' Sleepy Fox 'in his friends list was still lit up.
This meant that she was currently fine.
Just as Roddy was thinking this, he suddenly heard noises from the outside world coming from the "Game Helmet". His eyes turned cold, and he immediately chose "Exit Game".
Taking off the helmet, Roddy abruptly sat up on the mattress in the tent. He glanced at Kardashian, who was still lying on her back. She was still wearing her riding clothes, and there was no trace of the Arcane Robe. After confirming that there was nothing out of the ordinary, Roddy got up and unzipped the tent. At this moment, he discovered that there was a sandstorm outside. Although the wind wasn't particularly strong, there was no vegetation in this area, so the yellow sand swirling up was astonishing.
The sand hit the tent, and the whistling sound was a little strange. Roddy squinted his eyes and looked around. Suddenly, he discovered a row of cars in the distance, stirring up a cloud of dust.
No one would specially come to this kind of desolate wilderness. Even off-road enthusiasts wouldn't choose to drive their cars in this kind of sandstorm. When the convoy gradually turned and headed straight for Roddy's position, the huge black figure of the SWAT team finally made him understand … that what was supposed to come was finally here.
Roddy's tent was backed against a low slope. The Pajeros and SWAT team surrounded the tent from a distance of about 50 meters. The police officers who rushed down were all armed with guns, and the SWAT team even had automatic rifles in their hands. Because there was no higher ground nearby, another armored car stopped a little further away. After the sniper assembled his gun, he directly aimed at the front from the roof of the car. The sound of the walkie-talkie blared. Roddy turned his head to look at the silent tent. He didn't know how long it would take for Kardashian to get an answer. Facing this group of armed SWAT team, even if he had a bow and arrow, he would basically be sending himself to his death …
He thought for a moment and raised his hands in surrender. At the same time, he shouted at the people about 20 meters in front of him, "What are you guys doing?"
Roddy thought that in a situation like this, the person in charge of the negotiation would usually step out and shout. To his surprise, a guy with a megaphone appeared in the other party's team. But before the other party could speak, Roddy once again saw his jacket quickly turn into an arcanist robe …
"This is?"
Roddy had no idea why he had recovered once in the game, and now he had recovered again. The only thing he knew was that it was due to the full recovery of his strength. Due to the existence of the "Heart of the Demon", his wounds were rapidly healing, and to his surprise — — the long-awaited system window appeared in front of him!
But now he didn't even have time to check the flashing icons. The guy in front of him, who was obviously a "negotiation expert", had already raised his megaphone and started repeating the words "you are surrounded" …
"I want to negotiate!"
Roddy immediately copied the lines in the movies and shouted towards the outside.
But he had forgotten that the so-called "negotiation" could only be carried out on the basis of having a hostage or a weapon in hand. Roddy was unarmed, and the Special Task Force around him was armed with assault rifles. More than a dozen guns were pointed at him. Unless Roddy had a bomb, he had no right to negotiate at all …
So the deputy captain who came to shout ignored him and directly shouted, "Come out with your hands up!"
His words had a thick Inner Mongolian accent. This operation was carried out by the local Special Task Force 1 team in cooperation with the Imperial Special Task Force. After driving for a day, they finally found this guy, so they naturally felt a lot more relaxed. And soon, the inconspicuous "otaku" sensibly raised his hands high and walked out from behind the motorcycle.
Roddy walked forward with his hands raised. He looked back at the tent again and found that Kardashian still hadn't moved. He gritted his teeth and scanned his skill bar, finally locking his target on the deputy captain more than ten meters in front of him.
The latter held a megaphone in his hand and didn't have a gun. After all, in this kind of situation, having one more or one less gun made no difference. He wasn't tall, but he had broad shoulders. Looking at Roddy's dejected face, he felt that this operation was a success. If he could complete the task within the time limit of closing the case, he would get a bonus when he returned …
But these beautiful scenes suddenly changed. The deputy captain's expression immediately became distorted — he didn't know when, but he felt that a lot of "memories" had appeared in his head. His family and children were all lying in a pool of blood, and the one who did it was this ordinary-looking young man in front of him …
The deputy captain's body trembled, and then he stared angrily at Roddy, wanting to shout "shoot" on the spot. But before the deputy captain could open his mouth, a police officer holding a pistol next to him opened fire without warning!
"Pa!"
After the gunshot, the police officer also gritted his teeth, as if he had an irreconcilable grudge against Roddy. But his behavior made his colleagues around him look at him in surprise — the latter didn't seem to notice, and continued to raise his pistol and shoot without hesitation!
Roddy originally planned to rely on his superhuman skills and stamina to hold the deputy captain hostage to negotiate, but he didn't expect the other party to not even give him a chance, and directly opened fire without saying anything.
The 9mm bullets used in the T-J's Type 92 handgun were quite powerful at a distance of 20 meters. However, they were not as effective against Roddy. That was because the bullets had directly triggered his passive shield, creating a fine crack not far away from him.
Roddy reacted faster than others, and his eyes immediately locked onto the person who fired the gun. When he realized that the other party was still preparing to shoot, Roddy immediately understood that he had no other choice …
He immediately pounced to the side, his body stretched out like a cheetah, and after landing on the ground, he did a forward roll, and then suddenly jumped out like a spring!
"Pa! Pa! Pa! "
The continuous bullets could not catch up to him at all, and three small sand pits appeared on the ground, while Roddy's figure had already rushed out horizontally for 10 meters.
But this seemed to be just the beginning, the surrounding police officers all aimed their crosshairs at Roddy, and opened fire without any orders!
Under the net of more than 10 guns' firepower, Roddy didn't dare to take any chances. After getting up, he took the second step, "Afterimage" had already split. After three steps, all the police officers saw three running figures, and he himself was so fast that he became a shadow, and almost instantly broke out of the encirclement, and went around to the other side of the group of people!
Because of Roddy's decisiveness in escaping, coupled with the assistance of the shield and "Afterimage", he was only hit three times in the hail of bullets. But because these were all rifle bullets, the shield's power was limited, and it shattered on the spot.
He knew that escaping was not a solution, so after running, he gritted his teeth and rushed into the group of people who were holding their guns!
