Chapter 123 Replica
Jiang Wang was right. That humanoid monster did have many similarities with me. Or, if I evolved a few more times, I might become like that.
Seeing that I didn't say anything, Jiang Wang thought I had touched a sore spot, and quickly changed his words: "Pah, pah, pah, I mean that humanoid monster must be imitating you..."
After thinking about it, he felt that it was still wrong, so he could only apologize: "Ji Ling, it's okay, you won't become like that."
I nodded. Actually, it doesn't matter to me now whether I will become like that or not. I have long overcome the fear of becoming a monster.
However, the thing summoned by the Apocalypse Sect is really too strange.
We were hiding in the dark, keeping a close eye on the battlefield. The data just sent by the headquarters showed that this monster would create a person exactly like the opponent, but the strength of the copied person was even greater than that of the original.
The dragon that was just copied is an example.
In this case, it is almost impossible to defeat it by relying on evolved abilities.
Therefore, the current tactic is to suppress with maximum firepower.
The troops that had previously conducted firepower tests on it had been cloned into a small group to become its troops.
Fortunately, fire suppression is useful for some cloned individuals, depending on what skills the cloned entity possesses.
Currently, the Investigation Bureau and the monster have reached a strange balance. Since this abnormal unit can copy the characteristics of the opponent, the more times a person evolves, the less chance of winning, because they will be copied into individuals stronger than themselves.
But for some unknown reason, this abnormal unit did not copy the weapon. I don’t know whether it was because it couldn’t or because it didn’t know how to use the weapon.
In such a situation, ordinary fire suppression can actually suppress it to a certain extent.
But there is no way to directly destroy this abnormal unit.
At present, the longer we delay, the more disadvantageous it will be for us.
Our supplies will eventually run out, and we will definitely not be able to fight for a long time like this.
Fortunately, our team is the most flexible in the entire deployment, and we were the first to discover the blood sacrifice site.
Logically speaking, the command should have instructed us to look for a way to deal with this monster in the dark.
But the command center gave our team a very strange order: go in directly and fight it with all possible means.
After seeing the new instructions, Lord Steel pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Everyone, get ready."
As he spoke, Gang Jue took out a communication device, sent the location of the base he had just discovered to the command center, and made a brief report on the results of our recent exploration.
At this time, Lin Hanning sneered: "The commander of your headquarters is really not very capable."
Steel Lord frowned. Although he felt a little offended by what it said, due to the overall situation, he did not argue with it too much on this issue. He just waved his hand and motioned us to follow.
To be honest, I am also a little surprised about this matter. An order like this is an extremely low-level mistake in combat. And the order was issued not by the Xinyan City Investigation Bureau, but by the headquarters. Logically speaking, the headquarters' decision should be more rigorous than that of the Xinyan City Investigation Bureau.
But the order is such, and even if there are doubts, we have to obey.
"Ji Ling, you have the best eyesight. First, take a look at the extent of the damage at the scene. We will plan the shortest route to sneak directly into the battlefield."
I nodded, used the ruins as cover, hid my tracks, and looked towards the center of the battlefield.
At this moment, I suddenly felt a pair of eyes looking towards me, and subconsciously looked up.
The next second, my eyes suddenly met with the six-armed monster in white gauze in the air.
Even through the white gauze, I could still feel a pair of indifferent yet divine gazes.
However, the moment our eyes met, the six-armed monster in white gauze seemed to tilt its head in confusion.
Then, it raised its hand slightly, and a huge concrete slab suddenly rose from the ruins and smashed directly towards the direction of our ambush.
"Oh no! We've been discovered! Get out of the way!" Gang Jue shouted, and the others also moved to the side as quickly as possible.
But this concrete slab was too big and moving very fast. In addition, there were many shelters where we were ambushing, which made it difficult for us to move and we had no time to dodge.
At the critical moment, Song Nanxing roared and rushed in front of us, with scales covering his entire body in an instant.
He wanted to block the stone slab with his body.
Just when the stone slab was about one meter away from Song Nanxing, it suddenly stopped in the air.
Song Nanxing turned around in surprise.
At this moment, I am using my five fingers to grasp and manipulate the stone.
Fortunately, I often use this skill to clean the room when I am lazy, and moving the corpses before has further practiced this skill, so now I am quite proficient in using it.
However, it is still a bit difficult to control such a large piece of cement slab.
"Since we've been discovered, let's go!" As I said that, I gathered all my strength and threw the stone slab back into the air.
The others no longer hesitated and started running towards the battlefield.
Song Nanxing was the first to bear the brunt of the attack. He jumped up in the middle of the road and attacked the man in the air.
"Bang!"
Accompanied by a loud bang, a person who looked exactly like Song Nanxing suddenly appeared in the air and punched Song Nanxing.
The two powerful forces collided and directly sent the two people flying.
The real body, Song Nanxing, was thrown onto a ruined wall and fell down, spitting out blood.
The hand that he had just used to punch also hung down weakly.
Song Nanxing coughed up a mouthful of blood and gritted his teeth, trying to stand up. The next second, the fake Song Nanxing jumped directly in front of him.
Seeing this, Gang Jue raised his hand and launched a flying sword, which knocked the fake Song Nanxing away.
But then, a few more people appeared on the field.
Fake Jiang Wang, fake Chen Yubing, fake Gang Jue, and even fake Lin Hanning.
The replicas on the field had clear targets and were heading straight for the original body.
What’s troublesome is that these replicas are more powerful than the originals.
So almost everyone is being suppressed by them.
But I feel a little free...
It was then that I suddenly realized that the monster had copied everyone but me.
Thinking of this, I looked up again, and it happened to be looking at me too.
Immediately afterwards, the eyes of one of its arms suddenly opened. At the same time, my eyes suddenly went dark, and a terrifying image appeared in the darkness.
I can't describe what this thing is exactly. To be precise, I couldn't even see it clearly. I could only barely make out a strange outline. But just this outline was enough to make me feel instinctively afraid.
It was not just fear, but also all sorts of crazy thoughts and a severe pain in the head that seemed real or illusory.
Wait… fear projection?
Realizing this, I tried to hold my breath and concentrate, barely overcoming the impact of the terrifying shadow that inexplicably appeared in my mind.
And the next second after I got rid of the projection of fear, I approached it directly and swung my sword to kill it.
The six-armed monster in white gauze didn't seem to expect that I would be so fast, but it didn't show too much emotion. It just slightly opened the eye on its other arm. At the same time, I suddenly felt a sense of stagnation.
Even the movements of the body were frozen.
It felt just like the feeling we had when that fanatic was secretly controlling us, but even more intense.
Fortunately, I had experience in dealing with it before, so I was not controlled to death directly. Instead, I turned around and kicked it while breaking free from its control.
What I didn’t expect was that I actually kicked him.
This confirmed one thing for me: it wasn't as fast as me.
The first source of infection I had was red silk, and the evolutionary skills that red silk brought me were speed and senses.
From this point of view, Hongsi should not be the source of pollution created by the person from the Apocalypse Sect.
Of course, this is not good news. It only means that there is one more unknown evil god.
From the brief confrontation just now, I also roughly analyzed some problems.
This container covered in white gauze has abilities similar to mine but much stronger than mine, but its speed is not as fast as mine.
More importantly, its current appearance is very similar to mine after alienation.
Thinking of this, an idea suddenly came to me.
The monster summoned by the Apocalypse Cult is essentially a replica based on me, used as a vessel for divine descent in my stead.
That's why it can't copy me.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a chill down my spine.
It's just a replica that has caused such a big fuss. If the evil god really comes to this world, what kind of scene will it be like?
These lunatics of the Apocalypse Sect will do anything to complete their divine descent ritual.
The replica looked at me and raised its hand again.
At the same time, I opened the two extra compound eyes on my forehead and activated the skill of one of them.
Soul manipulation.
This skill was awakened during previous training. I usually don't use it easily, but after all, it can directly seize the opponent's soul, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the opponent. If successful, the battle can be won without fighting.
However, after I activated the skill, it was not affected at all.
It seems to have failed...
But I wasn't too discouraged. The success rate of this skill was not high, and the opponent had obviously evolved more times than me.
But what surprised me was that it didn't control my soul either.
Could it be that it also failed?
After the soul manipulation failed, I simply abandoned this tactic.
But it was obvious that the opponent would not let me go just like that. The real battlefield was not a turn-based game. Before I could close the distance again, I suddenly felt pain in my bones, and then my limbs twisted in an extremely strange posture.
Damn it! It's a space distortion...
Although I also have this skill, I don’t know how to crack it, and I don’t have the ability like Jiang Wang to change my flesh and blood form at will.
This is terrible. The bones in my arms and legs must be broken. It hurts so much that I almost cry.
At this moment, a faint halo suddenly enveloped my body. This halo not only broke the distorted state of the space I was in, but also sent strands of golden light penetrating into my body.
The severe pain from the broken bones gradually subsided, and my limbs were able to move freely again.
"I can only help you up to this point!" Lin Hanning was busy with her own affairs but still shouted towards me.
It was only at this moment that I noticed that she had changed her appearance at some point. Her hair turned dark black and she had grown a lot taller. Her original loli look was no longer there, and she looked like the one in the photo I had seen before.
Moreover, she was not good at fighting, but now she is very agile. Although her skills are not amazing, it is not a problem for her to suppress her copy.
The strange thing is that her replica did not turn into that appearance, and still looked like the original foreign loli.
I understand that maybe the things it copies have certain limitations, and not everything can be copied 1:1.
With Lin Hanning's help, I recovered quickly and continued to focus my energy on the guy who looked like me.
At the moment, it seems that I can only rely on my own advantage of fast speed to get close to it and find its flaws.
Thinking of this, I stepped out suddenly.
As I approached it, I manipulated the rocks and threw them at it.
Although the opponent could easily block it, I was distracted by these things and quickly got behind him.
When it saw me coming behind it, it raised one arm and cast Fear Projection at me.
I narrowed my eyes slightly and said to this monster in front of me, who was extremely similar to me, yet completely different, "It's no use trying the same old trick again."
After saying that, I picked up the Miao Dao and chopped at its arm.
bite!
When my Miao Dao chopped its arm, I didn't expect to hear the sound of metal clashing, accompanied by sparks.
At the same time, the recoil force from the handle of the knife made my palm hurt.
My first attack failed, so I took a few steps back, and then I rushed forward again.
I can see that this replica is not good at close combat. After all, it is an untrained replica.
But after a few chops, my knuckles were cracked, but it was unharmed.
Its skin is as metal as it gets, and it really gives me a hard time figuring out where to start.
Unless there is some way to suppress its ability.
Got it.
There are cloud and thunder patterns on the Miao Dao, which has the ability to suppress pollution.
As long as I perform a blood sacrifice, the Miao Dao will definitely cause damage to it.
After thinking of a solution, I quickly used the Miao Dao to cut the wound on my finger.
After blood gushed out of my fingers, I smeared the blood on the blade of the Miao Dao.
Then, I stepped forward again and chopped it down.
Facing my attack, its eyes remained indifferent, as if I was tickling it, so it raised its hand to grab my Miao Dao.
But the next moment its expression changed, just because I cut off its hand with a knife.
When I saw the arm falling to the ground, a hint of joy appeared on my face.
It seems that this guy is not so strong after all!
Just as I was about to chop off its other arm,
Suddenly, Lin Hanning's voice came from behind.
