When Bohemia stumbled out of the wooden box, Lin Sanjiu couldn't help pinching her skin and hair. She even counted the bracelets and chains on her arm. Lin Sanjiu had no idea how many bracelets Bohemia had, but she had a feeling that there should be a whole bunch of them. After the incident just now and knowing that Luther was nearby, Lin Sanjiu was a little nervous about the existence of Bohemia.
"When did you get here?" Lin Sanjiu asked as she examined Bohemia. "How did you end up in the box?"
"I was already — What are you doing?" Bohemia slapped Lin Sanjiu's hand away. She was panting a little as she spoke, and her voice seemed weaker than before. She looked up, and her face paled. "Wait a minute. So there are so many people on the other side? Why do they look like they are going to launch an all-out attack? I think we should talk things out … "
"Shut up."
Bohemia's cold words immediately silenced her. If it weren't for her fear of Puppeteer, Lin Sanjiu suspected that she would have already run away.
After the short but intense battle, many more people had fallen in the corridor. However, Lin Sanjiu found that there were at least 20 members left on the Nightwalker's side. At this moment, the air in the corridor between the two sides was rippling, and from time to time, a wave-like luster flashed across the air.
Behind the translucent barrier, the petite woman spoke coldly.
"I don't know when you guys got together, and I don't know why you guys want to ruin our plan to find our Eternal Home. But I can assure you that even for Puppeteer, messing with the Nightwalker is a fatal mistake. " Apparently, she had recognized Bohemia, but she didn't think much of her. She snorted, "Puppeteer, it's useless even if you have our attacks stored in your brain. Jayz, show them your data."
A ginger-haired man nodded and took a step forward under everyone's watchful eyes. He was originally standing in the third row, so he didn't seem to be one of the stronger members. As soon as he lowered his hand, a few thin "wires" slid down from his sleeve and melted into the floor.
A huge golden number "136" slowly rose from the air current that was trapped by Puppeteer. At the same time, the same number "217" appeared on the protective layer that occasionally flickered with ripples of light.
It was clear what these two numbers represented. The man named Jesse smiled nervously and murmured, "Y-You can think of this as a 'power value'. Apart from people who are much stronger than me, I can measure the power of everything else … "
He gulped and tilted his body slightly as if he was trying to avoid Puppeteer's gaze. "You should have realized that the attacks you've stored up won't be able to break through our defense."
"We'll wait for you to unleash your attacks. Before that, we wouldn't even throw a fork at you. " Facing the famous Mad Dog of the Twelve Worlds, the petite woman showed no fear. "Your 'All Rivers Run Into The Sea' should have a limit. It's impossible for you to absorb our attacks infinitely."
Puppeteer let out a soft sigh as if he was filled with regret. He did not look at anyone but the golden number "217" floating in the air. He said softly, "No matter how many times you are surrounded, what I admire the most is your confidence."
There was a moment of silence.
"Did you see that?" Puppeteer suddenly moved closer to Lin Sanjiu. Lin Sanjiu tensed up reflexively. As if he did not notice, he continued, "In the second row, there is a man whose nose seems to have been pressed flat, and there is a woman with a potato head next to him …"
The two people who were named squirmed uneasily and indignantly.
Lin Sanjiu glanced at Puppeteer, a little puzzled. His side profile was covered by his black hair, but Lin Sanjiu could see that the glitter at the corner of his eyes was gradually turning red. It was possible that he was angry or excited. Lin Sanjiu lowered her gaze and found that he was holding a purple object in his hand. It looked familiar.
"Five seconds after I say start, I will stand between the two people."
"What?"
Lin Sanjiu almost thought that she was the one who shouted when the person on the other side shouted in shock and anger.
"Wipe that stupid look off your face," Puppeteer said as he straightened his back. He did not even look at the opposite side of the corridor. "In these five seconds, the two of you can make use of yourselves."
Bohemia nodded obediently. She acted like a completely different person compared to when she was in front of Lin Sanjiu.
"How —" Lin Sanjiu stopped talking and asked again, "What do you want us to do?"
Puppeteer did not even bother to answer her. He turned his head away. He twirled the purple cube in his hand. Suddenly, half of his face twisted. He chuckled and said, "Start."
In the next five seconds, everything happened in a blur.
During the first and second second, other than moving his hand slightly, Puppeteer stood in the same spot as before. He did not seem to have done anything. After another second, Lin Sanjiu suddenly realized that he was using the [Photoshop CS6] that he had lent her once before. The "eraser" swept across the center of the corridor. Wherever the "eraser" touched, there was nothing but empty air. Naturally, the number 217 disappeared along with it.
At this moment, the air currents in "All Rivers Run Into The Sea" that contained all sorts of attacks had already begun to churn violently. As the sharp wind whistled, the energy attacks that Lin Sanjiu had stored just now suddenly split into countless branches and charged toward the other end of the corridor from all directions. The golden number 136 had disappeared. It had split into numbers 5, 12, 9, and so on. All of them rushed toward the other end of the corridor.
"Activate the defense!" someone on the other end of the corridor screamed.
Just when Lin Sanjiu turned to look at Puppeteer, she saw nothing at the fourth second. Puppeteer, who was standing beside her a moment ago, had already reached the other end of the corridor in the blink of an eye. Like a pitch-black dagger, he plunged straight into the crowd of Nocturnal Wanderers. Since their attacks had been dispersed, the second defense that they had hastily assembled was also dispersed. Once they could no longer gather, they would open the door to Puppeteer. Amidst the commotion, screams, and collisions, countless attacks and items flew toward Puppeteer.
"Higher Consciousness!"
Lin Sanjiu yelled at Bohemia at the same time. Lin Sanjiu had no idea whether Bohemia understood her or not, but she had no time to explain. She sprinted forward and unleashed all her Higher Consciousness. However, this time, her Higher Consciousness was not used to knock Puppeteer down, but to protect him. Lin Sanjiu couldn't tell how many times she had blocked Puppeteer's attack.
Those who had even the slightest contact with the pitch-black silhouette had their cries cut off. In the blink of an eye, they had turned into stiff bodies and were sent flying into the air. The Nocturnal Wanderers, who had been in formation just a moment ago, scattered, broke down, ran, and cried in a group of people in just a few seconds. It was not even enough time for the petite woman to issue a new order.
On the fifth second, Puppeteer stopped.
He stretched out his hands and grabbed the man and woman who were trying to run away from him from the back. Then, a sinister smile appeared on Puppeteer's face, which was glowing red from the corner of his eyes.
