Cold shards of siliceous vines, like sharp shards of glass, tumbled from Pei Du's furiously severed left hand. Dark crimson energy, like uncontrolled flames, swirled and flickered between his fingers, reflecting the all-consuming brutality and deep murderous intent in his eyes. His target—Xu Shuangyao, who lay collapsed on the ground, bleeding from all seven orifices, his eyes vacant, as if completely crushed by the Wild Fang leader's final rant!
"die--!!!"
That left hand, wrapped in destructive energy, tore through the sticky air in the dark green realm, and with the tragic determination to perish together, it fiercely grabbed Xu Shuangyao's fragile neck! The ashes of trust were blown away by the strong wind, leaving only the raging hatred of being deceived, used, and used as a pawn and fuel!
“Buzz!”
Just as his fingertips were about to touch his skin, an even larger, icy will descended like an invisible iceberg! It wasn't the plant network that blocked it, but rather a force coming from deeper, more central direction—the Throne of Thorns!
The will of the fungus master, like a long-awaited glutton, accurately grasped the moment when a huge crack appeared in Pei Du's mental defense line due to rage and suspicion!
"boom--!!!"
The indescribable, terrifying mental shock wasn't a sound, but a pure tsunami of consciousness! Carrying the desperate wails of billions of lives, the endless fear of the devoured, and the cold, chaotic, all-consuming desire of the Fungus Master, it flowed like a torrent of destruction, following the thorns that had been forced through the Fusion Crown and fiercely pouring into Pei Du's shattered consciousness!
“Ughh ...
Pei Du's left hand, which was reaching for Xu Shuangyao, suddenly froze in mid-air! He let out a shrill, inhuman scream, his body arching and twitching violently as if struck by an invisible hammer! The blazing rage in his eyes was instantly eclipsed by icy confusion and extreme pain! His head seemed about to explode, and countless distorted visions flashed before his eyes: the scene of the fungal blanket devouring the city... the scarlet electronic eyes of countless fungal warriors... the resentful laughter of the Wild Fang leader before his death... and, in the dark blue incubator, the clone's cold, empty eyes slowly opened! The will of the Fungal Lord was trying to forcibly disintegrate his consciousness, dragging him into the abyss of eternal darkness!
This terrifying storm of mental pollution also affected Xu Shuangyao, whose mind was already broken! She was like a small boat in a raging sea, instantly submerged! More chaotic fragments of memory—the shrill beeps of laboratory alarms, the cold electric sound of encrypted communication fragments, the vague silhouettes of the upper echelons, and the pulsation of some cold "container" deep within the throne, sensed by plant roots—stirred like sharp shards of glass in her mind! She clutched her head tightly with both hands, her nails digging deep into her scalp, and let out a silent, dying scream!
“Sizzle!”
Under the impact of this double mental storm, the already fragile symbiotic connection erupted like an overloaded circuit, exploding with intense, soul-tearing pain! This pain was like a red-hot iron, searing the two people's nerves on the verge of collapse!
"Ugh!" Pei Du and Xu Shuangyao screamed even more miserably at the same time! Their bodies convulsed violently due to the excruciating pain!
However, this extreme pain was like a basin of ice water, instantly extinguishing Pei Du's uncontrolled rage! The equal or even greater pain Xu Shuangyao endured, transmitted through the consciousness connection, and her completely torn mental state, were like an icy needle, piercing his heart, which was blinded by hatred!
She...seemed to be just a used, doomed pawn? Just like him?
This momentary hesitation gave Xu Shuangyao a chance to breathe! The scientist's tenacious will, on the brink of complete annihilation, burst forth with a final burst of light!
"Anti...interference...frequency...analysis...core...pollution...fluctuation!" Xu Shuangyao's shattered thoughts, like a candle in the wind, carried the undeniable calm logic of a "creator," forcibly piercing the storm of mental pollution and piercing Pei Du's chaotic mind! This wasn't control! It was sharing! Using her last remaining vestiges of sanity, she instinctively analyzed the Master's mental pollution pattern, based on scientific knowledge! It was the "key" to resistance!
Like a faint searchlight ignited in the darkness! In Pei Du's chaotic and hallucinatory mind, he instantly "saw" the analytical diagram of the Master's mental pollution frequency spectrum transmitted by Xu Shuangyao! The chaotic, maddening torrent of consciousness seemed to be instantly deconstructed, revealing its core, cold and regular "source of pollution" frequency!
"roll--!!!"
Pei Du's eyes flashed with blood! Seizing this crucial opportunity, he channeled all his will, all his anger, and all his unwillingness into an invisible spiritual blade, fiercely slashing at the frequency node of the "pollution source" analyzed by Xu Shuangyao! No longer a blind resistance, but a precise sniper attack!
“Buzz!”
A crisp sound like shattering glass exploded deep within his consciousness! The surging torrent of mental pollution suddenly stagnated! Like a river cut off from its source, it instantly weakened by a significant amount! Although the Master's will remained immense and cold, the terrifying pressure that was forcibly disintegrating his consciousness was temporarily broken!
Pei Du gasped, like a drowning man emerging from the water, a glimmer of his own, a cold lucidity returning to his eyes. He glanced at Xu Shuangyao, who lay curled up on the ground, completely exhausted and hazy from the forced analysis. His expression was extremely complicated. Hatred lingered, but a colder realization, a sense of being bound by the same noose of fate, overwhelmed the urge to tear her apart immediately.
"Go!" Pei Du growled hoarsely, no longer trying to grab her. Instead, he used his left hand, which had just broken free and was still trembling slightly, to grab Xu Shuangyao by the back of her collar. He lifted her up roughly like an object and flung her onto his back! His movements were still stiff, but they carried a hint of unquestionable determination—before they tore her apart, they had to tear apart that damn throne first!
