After hearing the story, Gu Lingxiao's anger was almost at its peak, but he did not show it and remained very calm.
Impotent rage serves no purpose. "A pawn, this role really suits me right now."
Watching Gu Lingxiao turn and leave, not intending to leave any memories, T10 had a bad feeling, but it was indeed his problem.
Many creatures lurk beneath this gloomy world, and this wager is nothing short of a disaster for them. But who cares about their thoughts, or even their lives?
Before he could even unleash the zombies that were comparable to supernatural creatures, Gu Lingxiao began to collect the crystals on a large scale.
Before T10 left, he only heard the wails of countless evolved creatures. It was indeed the right thing to do, as it would allow him to collect a large number of crystals to recover later and to prolong the time needed to win the duel. But he didn't seem to be working hard to win the duel.
Instead of hiding to buy time, Gu Lingxiao continued to kill and vent his anger? No, no, no, how could he be so irrational?
It's better to fight than to die in despair.
A large number of evolved creatures died at Gu Lingxiao's hands, and he collected crystals one by one. Soon, Gu Lingxiao received news of the zombies being released.
But he still didn't stop; instead, the commotion grew louder and louder. At first, the position of the zombie was the furthest away from the position of the chess piece, which was the best time for the chess piece to hide.
Watching Gu Lingxiao's relentless killing from God's perspective, T10 began to wonder if he was planning to attract zombies to lose the match first, thus causing T10 to lose the bet and get revenge, or if he was simply venting his anger.
The pieces were visible to all the gamblers in this contest, leading one of the aliens to wonder, "What is he doing? Is he trying to attract zombies comparable to Venerable-level beings? Could it be that you told him you were going to die, T10, and he's sulking because of you?"
"Haha, I didn't expect you to be so stupid, T10!" The aliens laughed. The surprise came too quickly. From the initial setbacks to the turn of fortune, and now to a situation where victory was almost certain, the turn of events was too sudden.
A small victory at one time doesn't determine anything; only those who have the last laugh are the true winners.
The aliens were venting their previous negative emotions.
The Poison Dragon started to panic. "T10, isn't he T9527? According to your operating logic, he shouldn't be dissatisfied just because you told him everything; instead, he should be carrying out your orders to the fullest extent."
T10 was also unsure of what he wanted to do, so he could only remain silent.
In less than a day, there wasn't a single living evolved creature left in the area where Gu Lingxiao was located.
"Is he exhausted, both physically and mentally, and just waiting to die?" the second gambler mocked.
"Look at our pieces again, be careful and cautious, they're still at their peak."
Gu Lingxiao stopped not because he was exhausted, but because there were no more evolved creatures in his area. As for why he didn't chase after them, it was because he discovered that the zombie was coming.
Although Gu Lingxiao didn't see him, a suppressed emotion had already arisen in his heart, and it became more and more suppressed as time went by.
Gu Lingxiao landed on the ground and waited quietly, ready to leave in the opposite direction as soon as the zombie appeared. It wasn't time to gamble everything yet; he had to wait.
When the suppressed emotions reached a peak, they suddenly disappeared, and the only sound in the silence was Gu Lingxiao's heartbeat.
The sound of his heartbeat grew louder and louder. At a certain moment, he heard a noise behind him. Without hesitation, Gu Lingxiao teleported away. But when Gu Lingxiao turned around, he saw that it was just an ordinary zombie. Its original form should be a lizardman.
Could an ordinary zombie really get this close to him without him noticing?
The next second, his heart, which had been pounding like a drum, suddenly burst without any warning, and Gu Lingxiao had no idea what was happening.
Although it was quickly repaired by rapid regeneration, the damage was minimal, at least only consuming one-tenth of its physical and mental strength, far less than the damage previously anticipated.
He had initially assumed that the opponent's attack would be able to kill him instantly, but now the gap was too large, which made him feel unreal.
Regardless, Gu Lingxiao quickly teleported away into the distance.
"Heh, found so quickly. T10, do you think he still has a chance? Why not just admit defeat? Maybe he can survive. You were just about to trade your life for his, why not give it a try?" The second gambler said to T10, mainly trying to disrupt his thoughts.
"It's a pity that it's a zombie with a pattern; if it were a zombie with no pattern, he would have died just now," the third gambler chimed in.
The regular zombies are actually evolved organisms that absorbed and fused with the power of pollution, adding their own abilities, and these zombies are primarily created based on these abilities.
As for the pattern of this zombie, it is not yet clear, because the zombie does not seem to have attacked yet. Gu Lingxiao's heart ruptured just now, and he only faced the zombie directly. Venerables and evolved creatures both have this characteristic, but evolved creatures can hide it. As for Murphy before, he was too badly injured.
It's so heavy that it's lost its unique features.
After leaving, Gu Lingxiao did not flee far but continued to hunt other evolved creatures, which puzzled the group of gamblers. They thought, "If it needs to recover, this chess piece still has a lot of crystals on it that can be used to recover while escaping. There's no need to kill it on the spot."
When Gu Lingxiao felt the palpitation again, he left without hesitation. But the next second, he teleported to the face of the zombie and collided with it. One of Gu Lingxiao's hands was swallowed whole by the zombie.
The pain was like a wound to the soul, something Gu Lingxiao had never experienced before. Even with his current mental state, he managed to groan out, but the pain made it impossible for him to think at all.
At that very moment, time stood still.
The instant time resumed, Gu Lingxiao had already disappeared.
"Not to mention the regeneration in form, the two extremely powerful abilities of space and time in spirit are all in this piece. If he hadn't acted recklessly, our chances of losing would have been very high. Unfortunately, we don't have a chance now. We have to thank you, T10." The aliens were somewhat relieved that T10 had such a trump card.
Covered in cold sweat, Gu Lingxiao found it extremely difficult to restore his arm, which had been eaten away. It would require him to exhaust all his mental and physical strength to do so.
Although it was very taxing, Gu Lingxiao still chose to recover because he still had a large amount of super energy crystals from evolved creatures on him.
The arm recovered, and the absorption process to its peak consumed a lot of crystals, but it didn't take long, only less than a minute.
