Dozens of electronic ghosts scurried about outside the Arasaka Tower, surrounded by artillery fire.

Adam Hammer, whose brain was transferred into another Dragoon cybernetic body via an interchangeable bio-pod, was granted full war privileges, and in an instant, relentless artillery fire enveloped the area of ​​the electronic ghost.

Dozens of Gemini Type I soldiers who crawled out from underground came behind him on command, along with dozens of Demon Warrior and Demon Prototype agents, who surrounded the Electronic Ghost.

A chaotic battle was about to erupt when the scene, which was being watched intently by countless eyes, was suddenly intercepted by Arasaka's hacker. However, those who had witnessed Arasaka's true strength were completely bewildered.

Arakawa's strength is beyond doubt. Even if this place is destroyed, Arakawa's bases in other areas can still produce the same soldiers.

Unless Ultraman can perfect the Electronic Ghost project, Arasaka can do just as well as Ultraman.

However, Lin Feng no longer cared about these things. The moment he got off the halfway train, he and the Taoist priest abandoned all their technological equipment and disappeared into the desert.

...

"Whatever, where is this?" The Taoist priest stood under the blazing sun of outer space in a long-abandoned house, somewhat bewildered.

From the moment they discovered this place until the next few hours after they entered, Lin Feng showed no signs of movement except for sitting cross-legged under the house.

"Survival countdown: 3 days, 14 hours, and 59 minutes."

Lin Feng opened his eyes, took out the food from his ring, tore open the packaging, found a tattered mattress, dusted it off, and lay down: "We have 12 hours."

"12 hours?" Upon hearing Lin Feng's voice, the Taoist priest looked around and walked in, took out a sausage from his pocket, and sat down opposite Lin Feng.

Lin Feng nodded: "Hong Ling will approach here in 12 hours."

"Whoa~" The Taoist priest perked up, his eyes darting around. He quickly swallowed the sausage in his hand, stood up abruptly, ran up to the second floor, and climbed to the rooftop.

"Amitabha Buddha, this humble Taoist priest first requests a divination slip."

After carefully observing the structure of the houses, the Taoist priest pondered for a moment, then flipped his hand over, took out a tortoise shell, pressed the option to draw lots, and began shaking it wildly back and forth.

"Um?"

Upon hearing the sound of the divination slip falling, the Taoist priest immediately approached the tortoise shell to take a look.

"The White Tiger Star is divination..." After a long pause, the Taoist priest's eyes widened, and he immediately put away the tortoise shell: "Bah, I, this Taoist priest, do not believe in Buddhism today."

...

Time flew by, and Lin Feng and the Taoist priest emerged from the dark corner where the starlight did not reach, arriving at the camp of wanderers.

"He's here," Lin Feng suddenly spoke. The Taoist nodded nonchalantly. "How is he?"

Lin Feng could see everything that happened through the Red Spirit Ghost, but he couldn't; he could only obediently wait for the outcome.

"Just as you expected..."

Before Lin Feng could finish speaking, the Taoist's eyes lit up as he received a notification of Nightmare Points.

Nightmare Points +20 * 4

"Wow~ 80 points, that's a profit!"

Of course, Lin Feng wasn't idle either. Hong Linggui took the opportunity to kill two agents who weren't quite dead, obtaining 40 Nightmare Points, and then disappeared underground to continue his escape.

He now understood a little about the Taoist's methods. He directly used the formula to manipulate the physical rules of the surrounding environment, setting up some simple traps that would harm anyone who intruded.

So far, aside from being very interested in the palm laser that evolved from the palm thunder, he was quite surprised that the other party could draw a talisman like F=ma out of thin air to increase his movement speed.

Upon closer reflection, it's not surprising that modern Taoists are well-versed in mathematics, physics, and chemistry. In fact, true Taoists in ancient times were also masters of mathematics, physics, and chemistry. They were experts in astronomy, geography, I Ching, mathematics, physics, and other subjects, and were not some eccentric or mysterious figures.

Thinking about it, it's not surprising that the Taoist priest did this.

As for the subtle details about the Taoist priest, Lin Feng felt that the Taoist priest must have learned things from other sects.

"casual."

The Taoist priest was writing various physics formulas on the ground around the wanderer's camp when he suddenly looked up at Lin Feng and said, "I see you have a lone star hanging high above your head, you are a solitary person, really don't you want to... join my ranks?"

Having nothing else to do, and having just finished a round of mental cultivation, Lin Feng casually asked, "What's the name of your sect?"

"Oh~ Laozi has appeared... cough cough, you've finally given in."

The Taoist priest recalled the divination he had performed not long ago, hurriedly wrote down a formula, and walked up to Lin Feng in a few steps. He said frankly, "I am a disciple of the Divination School, a Taoist school that mainly teaches divination techniques. Our school has various methods such as Qimen Dunjia, Liuren Divination, Taiyi Shenshu, Liuyao Yizhan, Wenwang Divination, fortune telling, physiognomy, geomancy, divination diagrams, divination by observation, and divination by the weather, which are Taoist methods for predicting good and bad fortune in human affairs."

"You've probably heard of the Taoist priests who came out of the sect, such as Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang, who both came from the Divination School."

"Hmm..." Lin Feng was indeed intrigued by what he heard, but he quickly asked in return, "It is said that Li Chunfeng is skilled in yin-yang geomancy, and Yuan Tiangang is skilled in physiognomy. So which of these skills are you proficient in?"

Although he didn't know much, he had seen some scattered information in modern movies and TV dramas. Now that the Taoist wanted him to become his disciple, he needed to have something to say about him.

“Hehe, my lineage is full of geniuses…” The Taoist priest sat down with great fanfare and said earnestly, “Like me, your future master, he had already obtained seven doctoral degrees before entering the Nightmare Space.”

"Yes, you've already mentioned this." Lin Feng smiled.

"Ahem, look at the electronic tortoise shell in my hand. This is the core of the Heavenly Stems Divine Evolution Technique, which I developed after years of studying science and Taoist methods. It can deduce 99% of the results based on the development of things in any mission world!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng looked at the tortoise shell in the Taoist's palm with great surprise. This thing combined all the divination methods, so it would be hard to say that it was ineffective. However, judging from what the Taoist said, it could be used to divine in any world, so its value was quite different.

Lin Feng thought for a moment, then murmured calmly, "Heavenly Stems Divine Evolution Technique... Not a bad name. Are there other people in the sect?"

The Taoist's expression changed subtly for a moment, but he quickly said loudly, "I have a senior brother who is a superior human-level cultivator."

Before Lin Feng could even glance at him, the Taoist changed the subject: "The Heavenly Stems Divine Evolution Technique is a Taoist method that I created, optimized, and integrated after studying the laws of physics. It is unique in the Nightmare Space. As long as you are willing to join our sect, I guarantee that you will have no taboos with my skills."

Lin Feng chuckled inwardly, but he also carefully noted it down.

The ability to create one's own Taoist techniques indicates that the Taoist has surpassed ordinary participants and is no longer completely constrained by the framework of the nightmare space in using their power.

But the real reason why they entered the same world as him, regardless of whether the Taoist method was complete, should be that the Taoist's strength did not exceed the range of inferior human level.

So... has that hostile participant who underwent a series of intensive modifications already exceeded the category of inferior human?

Lin Feng remained puzzled, recalling the fragments of images he had seen earlier, and pondered for a moment: "I will give you an answer when we return to the Nightmare Space."

"Hehe, remember to add me on WeChat~" The Taoist priest smiled and continued drawing talismans until the night sky was twinkling with stars, then the two of them left in a more distant direction.

Compared to the traps they left near the previous houses, this trap, once activated, will generate subtle gravitational fluctuations, instantly increasing the gravity experienced by certain areas of internal organs, causing devastating damage.

It must be said that the Taoist priests' methods for scheming against people are truly excellent, which made Lin Feng deeply realize the gap in their foundation between himself and these inheritors.

When the sky brightened, the Red Ghost arrived at the area of ​​traps.

This time, the hostile participants directly dropped incendiary bombs on the camp, clearing out all buildings and units within their line of sight.

Having already taken cover, Hong Linggui continued to infiltrate underground, making her way to the camp. She arrived at a nearby rock and stood amidst several talismans, blatantly luring the pursuing agents inside.
