Meng Chao licked his loose teeth.
He spat out a mouthful of sweet blood.
But a smile that said "I knew it" bloomed on his lips.
"Did you become stupid?" Lu Siya asked worriedly.
"How could that be?"
Meng Chao stared at Gao Ye and said softly, "Big Sis Ya, don't you think it's strange? We've been talking here, but Gao Ye hasn't launched any additional attacks." “
Lu Siya was a little stunned.
After Meng Chao's reminder, she also felt that Gao Ye's fighting style was a little strange.
He only launched one attack in two rounds, and he never moved.
This did not make sense.
Even if he encountered Gao Ye's avatars in the underwater tunnel, after spitting acid or a rain of rubble, they would follow closely behind and use their crushing teeth to launch a chain of attacks.
The tunnel wasn't very wide, and Gao Ye almost completely blocked the tunnel.
If he charged forward like a train that had lost control, Meng Chao and Lu Siya would have no other choice but to cover their heads and run.
But he was like a bead on an abacus. With every push, he would take a step forward.
Or rather, he was like a machine that carried out orders. In fact, he was a puppet that fought against orders in secret, and he was gradually awakening to his own will!
Lu Siya narrowed her eyes. Just like Meng Chao, she observed Gao Ye carefully for a while and noticed that he was trembling.
It doesn't seem like it's because he's injured or in pain. Instead, it looks like his nervous system is fighting against something. He's in pain. His soul … is in pain? “
As a Spirit Sensor, Lu Siya could sense more things than Meng Chao.
"What about the abnormal beast's mastermind?"
Meng Chao asked. "I'm willing to bet that its body temperature has increased by quite a bit. “
"Indeed.
"Its body temperature is still rising. It's already more than twice the limit of a normal Demonic Air Ripping Eye! “
That's the effect I wanted, "Meng Chao said.
"Gao Ye's mind is controlled by the abnormal beast's mastermind, but this sort of control should be done in a subtle manner and based on the situation. Gao Ye is already half-awakened, so if the mastermind tries to forcefully control him, the burden on the mastermind will become greater." Gao Ye's mind is already half-awakened.
"It's like a processing system that has been overloaded for an entire night. Every computing unit is on the verge of bursting into flames, but it just so happens that it has received a task that requires its computing power to be ten times greater than its limit. If it continues to run like this, the only outcome will be a complete collapse!
"But it can't stop its control over Gao Ye.
"Because we're already stuck to it like a piece of sticky candy.
"It and Gao Ye are such big targets. It's impossible for them to shake us off.
"It can't leave Gao Ye behind to bring up the rear and escape alone, because its combat strength is too weak, and most of its escape routes will probably be detected and controlled by human powerhouses. It can only rely on Gao Ye's ability to drill through the ground to create a new path.
"So, it only has one choice left, and that is to forcefully control Gao Ye and let Gao Ye kill us.
"I believe from the bottom of my heart that Gao Ye doesn't want to do that.
"The more it forces Gao Ye to attack, the more it will use up its body, and the more Gao Ye's will will resist its orders.
"The more damage it causes to me, the more damage it will cause to itself. In the end, it will either completely collapse, or Gao Ye will completely awaken!"
Lu Siya was dumbfounded.
Theoretically speaking, that seemed to be the case.
But the problem was …
"Can you handle it?"
Lu Siya asked. "What if you're killed before it completely collapses or Gao Ye completely awakens?"
"I still have you," Meng Chao said.
"What?!" Lu Siya cried out.
"I'm just joking. I won't die that easily."
Meng Chao wiped off the blood at the corners of his lips.
He used the tip of his tongue to lick the teeth that had loosened just now, and he noticed that brand new flesh had grown on his gums. His teeth had become sturdy again, and with one bite, he could kill an Iron-armored Rhinoceros.
He looked at the depths of his brain. The Middle Stage Healing Skill that he had spent nearly twenty thousand contribution points in exchange for slowly flowed through his body in the form of a golden stream of light. Not only did it heal the wounds caused by Gao Ye's two attacks, some of the golden light also fused with the 1,024 spirit meridians in his body, making him feel warm and indescribably comfortable.
Meng Chao could not help but moan in pleasure.
It made Lu Siya shudder.
She thought that he had some sort of fetish for being beaten up.
"In simple terms, my strategy is to exchange injuries for injuries and fight a war of attrition!"
As Meng Chao spoke, he laughed coldly in his heart.
He was a person who had returned from the apocalypse. Not only did he have contribution points that he could use to heal himself at any time, he had also developed all 1,024 branch meridians. In terms of fighting strength, he might not be able to rank among the top, but when it came to fighting strength in terms of pestering others, it would be difficult for him to find anyone who could fight against him in all of Dragon City.
'The Prince of Endurance doesn't live up to his name. Come, let the storm be even fiercer!'
With this thought in mind, Meng Chao stood in front of Gao Ye again.
He could clearly see that the dozens of eyes on Gao Ye's head were shining with a complicated light at a high frequency.
His mouth was wide open, and his teeth, which were sharp enough to crush diamond, were trembling slightly.
Strange ripples spread out in the air.
He seemed to have received a command from the Demonic Abyss Eye to kill Meng Chao.
But there was something in his body. Something that had been sleeping for half a year and something that even he mistakenly believed to be dead a long time ago was gradually waking up under the Demonic Abyss Eye's simple and crude mind control.
The Demonic Abyss Eye was so anxious that its tentacles started dancing.
By the looks of it, it really wanted to personally go up and kill Meng Chao and Lu Siya.
But its fighting strength had always been very weak.
Just now, it had been severely injured by two veteran Heaven Realm superhumans.
Besides, the tunnel was not wide. If it wanted to personally attack, it would have to squeeze its way between Gao Ye and the wall.
During the time it squeezed its way over, Meng Chao and Lu Siya could just fire bullets at it like a tidal wave or retreat dozens of meters away from it and keep it at a distance. Then, they could kite it until reinforcements arrived.
That was awkward.
If they were careless, they would lose everything.
Perhaps at the moment Meng Chao predicted the Demonic Abyss Eye's ambush target, Lu Siya, Ye Xiaoxing, Li Yingzi, Luo Wu, and many other powerful fighters and important people chose to believe in him.
The outcome of the battle and the Demonic Abyss Eye's fate were already decided.
"Gao Ye, I've been to the hospital you often go to, and I can more or less understand your determination to have normal people have power and change their fates. “
"But look at what you've done! Forget about the past, let's talk about tonight! Just how much damage did you cause? How many deaths did you cause? How many innocent people died for nothing?
"Don't hide in this ugly shell like a coward and pretend that you can't hear me! I know you're still here, Gao Ye! Tell me, what the heck are you thinking? What are you doing?! You're completely going against your original intentions! "
The light in the dozens of eyes on the Ultimate Sandworm's head went out at the same time.
He roared and charged at Meng Chao again.
This time, Meng Chao did not choose to be beaten passively.
Instead, he let out a roar that was even more frenzied than Gao Ye's. His arms swelled up, and like two huge cannons, he used the beginner level offensive spirit energy magnetic field — Demon Subduing Pole — to bring out the effects of a peerless divine ability.
Boom!
It was as if two trains had crashed into each other at high speed.
Gao Ye looked as if he had crashed into an invisible iron wall. He was stunned.
Meng Chao was sent flying like a kite with its string snapped once more. He crashed into Lu Siya and sent her flying more than ten meters away. Even with the exoskeleton and fighting suit protecting her, she still grimaced and could not say anything for a long time.
But the moment Meng Chao was sent flying, he cast a Healing Art on himself. Right when he landed, he got up. He did not give the Demonic Abyss Eye time to recover his mental strength. He gritted his teeth and returned to Gao Ye.
"You said that monsters contain endless power and that consciousness transferring technology can allow normal people to control this power. It's easy for me to agree with your point of view. “
"But you're only halfway through your experiment. You've only proved that it's possible to transfer consciousness. A human's soul can have different shells. In fact, they can have shells that have the power to destroy the world. They can have shells that are like those of gods and demons.
"But you haven't proved that the human soul can control the bodies of gods and demons!
"If the human soul is devoured by the shells of monsters and demons after consciousness transferring, it's meaningless. This sort of technology can't bring Dragon City a beautiful future. It will only bring tragic destruction!
"So, I'm begging you, Professor Gao Ye, for the future of Dragon City, please prove to me, even if it's just for one second, even if it's just one thing, prove that the human soul can control the bodies of monsters and complete its mission!
"This is your project, Professor Gao Ye. No one is more suitable than you to complete this project. As long as you can prove this, I believe that the consciousness transferring project won't end just like this. I believe — no, I swear that a lot of people will pour a lot of money and resources into this project. One of these days, the era where even normal people can control the power of monsters will arrive!"
Gao Ye's dozens of eyeballs shone with a completely different light.
He seemed to want to secrete some crystalline liquid from the depths of his eye sockets.
Unfortunately, the structure of his visual system was completely different from that of a mammal. He could no longer use tears to express his emotions.
Behind him, the Demonic Abyss Eye was twitching like the beating heart of a sprinter after a sprint.
It screeched and released evil spirit flames.
This time, even Meng Chao could clearly sense that there was a mental connection between the Demonic Abyss Eye and Gao Ye. It was like a fiber optic cable, but it was also like a chain. It was invisible, but it was a real mental connection.
The Demonic Abyss Eye used this mental control chain to send the order to kill into Gao Ye's nervous system in an incredibly brutal manner.
