Report

Fangzheng could imagine that Tom Cruise must be in a miserable state.

It couldn't be seen in the movies, but after coming to this world, Fangzheng was sure that Tom Cruise had died more than a hundred times.

This was the conclusion Fangzheng came to when he was bored and counted to a hundred and one times. But what did it matter? A real man had to die at least a few hundred times. Didn't he die when he faced those two rats in the sewers? How many times did he die again? Forget it. Fangzheng was too lazy to remember.

It's about time.

After loading once more, Fangzheng let out a long sigh of relief. He turned his head and looked at the forest behind him. From a distance, there was nothing strange about the forest. However, Fangzheng knew very well that the lush trees and shrubs at the foot of the forest surrounded by mountains were filled with Zergs. Hydralisks were lurking underground, Zerglings were loitering in the grass, and Wyverns had retracted their claws as they quietly landed among the leaves. Everything was ready. After loading so many times, Fangzheng now had tens of thousands of Zergs in his hands. Fangzheng was sure that this wave of Zergs would definitely make those aliens cry for their parents. He would let them experience what a real destroyer was like. Compared to the Zergs who could easily destroy hundreds of planets, these aliens were nothing compared to Fangzheng except for their ability to manipulate time.

However, what Fangzheng couldn't figure out was the temporal paradox. Let's not talk about it for now. How was the conservation of energy calculated? He had emptied the mine below dozens of times. Even the shale oil had been drained, but the resources came back as soon as he reset them. So where did the resources come from?

One had to know that his Zerg race did not disappear because of Time Reversal. Instead, they had actually used up these resources.

Was it a parallel world? Or something else?

Fangzheng couldn't figure it out after thinking for a long time. It was too troublesome. He wasn't a scientist in his previous life, and he didn't study quantum mechanics or the theory of relativity. Anyway, he was having a good time using it, so he might as well use it. As for whether there would be any problems? If there were any problems, he would just fix it.

So, first of all … he had to stop time from reversing again.

Fangzheng wasn't worried about the aliens, but he was worried about Tom Cruise, the ticking time bomb. The interval between loading was getting longer and longer, which meant that the plot had progressed to the middle stage or even the late stage. But Fangzheng didn't want to give Tom Cruise the chance to save humanity. He was going to use that boss to complete his mission. If it was killed by a grenade, everything would be over.

So he came here.

London, Heathrow Base.

Fangzheng carefully stared at the figure of a man in a military uniform in front of him. He was currently running laps with the other soldiers, but from the looks of it, he seemed to be doing it with ease, as though he had experienced it many times. If one were to see him for the first time, one would definitely not associate him with a civilian officer. Instead, one would think that he was a veteran who had experienced hundreds of battles.

This was the protagonist of "Edge of Tomorrow", the man who was unlucky but had great luck at the same time, Tom Cruise.

The whole base was heavily guarded. Logically speaking, Fangzheng definitely wouldn't be able to sneak in, but in fact, Fangzheng didn't need to. He could use his psionic ability to project his mental power throughout the entire base and lock onto any target he wanted.

To be honest, in Fangzheng's opinion, psionic energy was very useful. However, there was one drawback. When he embedded the Soul Stone of Kerrigan, he couldn't use the skills of [Arthas]. Of course, he couldn't use the holy light either. This was probably the flaw of a Dimensional Mage. Although Fangzheng was invincible among the Zergs, he knew that if he didn't have the Soul Stone of Kerrigan, the Zergs wouldn't recognize him as their master either.

Don't ask Fangzheng how he knew about this. Just thinking about it made him want to cry.

However, Fangzheng was also helpless. This was also the original setting of the Dimensional Codex. In fact, the skills that players learned from equipping the Soul Stone were basically derivative skills of the Soul Stone. For example, the [Royal Cross Swordsmanship] that Fangzheng learned from completing quests belonged to the skill branch of the [Arthas] Soul Stone. Therefore, this skill could only be used when Fangzheng was equipped. Although Fangzheng could still swing his sword without the Soul Stone, he couldn't use the holy light, so the skill's effect was naturally useless.

When the Soul Stone was used up and shattered, the player could choose a skill with the highest proficiency to inherit on their own interface. Only then would the skill be separated from the Soul Stone and become the player's exclusive skill. Of course, if the player didn't increase the proficiency of the skill … hehehe, then it would depend on luck or even randomness.

At first, Fangzheng thought that this was a good design. He thought that he would be able to scam a lot of pay-to-win bosses, but now it seemed that … it was better to leave some leeway.

With the help of psionic energy, Fangzheng watched as Tom Cruise began to do push-ups under the instructor's order. But he knew that Tom Cruise would take advantage of a passing car to find a place to hide and meet up with the heroine. After that, they would continue their never-ending journey of killing.

What Fangzheng needed to do was to take this opportunity to deal with Tom Cruise.

Speaking of which, it was interesting to note that other movies rarely explained how to disable the protagonist's cheat, but in Edge of Tomorrow, almost all the audience knew how to remove Tom Cruise's cheat. The whole process was so simple that it made people's hair stand on end. As long as they didn't kill him immediately, but let him bleed slowly or give him a blood transfusion, Tom Cruise's cheat would be completely destroyed.

Therefore, what Fangzheng needed to do was very simple. He just needed to find an opportunity to seriously injure Tom Cruise and give him a blood transfusion. Then, it would be time for him and the others to make their appearance.

As for how to do it … .Has Final Destination ever seen it?

At this time, a car passed by the line of push-ups. Seeing the car coming, Tom's expression changed slightly. He looked around, and the moment the car came over, he rolled under the car. At the same time, Fangzheng activated his psionic energy. The car suddenly moved to the side, then its rear wheels pressed down on Tom Cruise's legs!

This was Fangzheng's plan!

In Fangzheng's opinion, as long as he could successfully break Tom Cruise's legs, he would immediately be sent to the hospital for treatment. Then, as long as he received a blood transfusion, his mission would be over. Then, the Zerg army would move out. Nothing would be a problem.

But then, something that Fangzheng did not expect happened.

Maybe the driver was too good or too lousy, but when the rear wheels of the car were about to press down on Tom Cruise's legs, the whole car suddenly tilted to the side and flipped over on the side of the road. This scene alarmed the others. Soon, some soldiers ran over to help. Tom Cruise was also shocked. He stood up and looked at the overturned car in bewilderment. He thought for a moment, then hurried to the end of the road while the others were not paying attention.

"… … …"

Well, maybe it's because I'm not proficient in manipulating psionic energy yet.

Looking helplessly at Tom's departing back, Fangzheng shrugged helplessly. Then, he stared at Tom again. He still had many chances to find the heroine, so he was not in a hurry.

Then, Fangzheng watched Tom Cruise come to the training ground. He risked his life to enter the training ground and walked towards the heroine. At the same time, he made his move again.

"Whoosh!!"

A mechanical target that had stopped spinning suddenly began to spin rapidly towards Tom Cruise. Tom Cruise was taken aback by the sudden movement of the target. But just when he was about to be injured by the mechanical target's attack, the root of the mechanical handle suddenly snapped. Maybe because it had been used for too long, the rotating mechanical target brushed past Tom Cruise and smashed into the wall next to him.

"… … …"

Well, I knew you couldn't rely on these old things.

At the training ground, Tom Cruise and the heroine met. After a few words, they turned around and left. Under the leadership of the heroine, the two drove to the maintenance center.

"Bang!!"

However, just as the two of them arrived at the entrance of the maintenance center, they saw the front left tire of the jeep suddenly burst. Then, the jeep lost control and slammed into the wall on the side. The heroine stepped hard on the brake. Under her control, the speed of the out-of-control jeep became slower and slower. Finally, it stopped right before it hit the wall.

"… … …"

Well, it's my fault that I didn't calculate the action and reaction forces.

Just as the two walked quickly into the maintenance center, one of the mecha fragments being repaired suddenly bounced up with a "ding" and flew towards Tom Cruise's arm. Just as it was about to cut off Tom Cruise's arm, a gust of wind suddenly blew past, causing the fragment to deviate from its direction and hit the wall next to Tom Cruise. Tom Cruise was startled.

"… … …"

Well, I didn't take aerodynamics into account … .my ass!

Looking at this scene through psionic energy, Fangzheng almost flipped the table.

Once or twice might be a coincidence, but three or four times is still a coincidence? Do you think I'm stupid?

"Sigh … …"

So, Fangzheng helplessly discovered that there was one more thing he needed to do before he could eliminate the other party's cheat.
