Chapter 228 The situation turns around
Fay was very sure that Elvis had already known the special feature of the bullet.
Now, he must be just trying to hold on to his weak body and endure the pain.
To survive, only a miracle can happen.
However, the words spoken by the silver-haired man gave him pause.
Ives: “Do you want to cooperate?”
After the words were spoken, the air froze for a moment.
"……cooperate?"
Fayi murmured softly and repeated it, his eyes dark and gloomy, making it difficult to discern his emotions.
This word actually came from the mouth of Elvis, whom he regarded as his nemesis.
It's... surprising.
Faye became interested. "What do you want to cooperate on?"
Elvis looked him in the eye and answered irrelevantly, "Tong Wanwan left."
Fayi was startled and took a step forward involuntarily, suppressing the anger that was about to burst out in his eyes.
"What do you mean? Left? Where did she go?"
Elvis frowned. "You brought her here from another time and space. How could you not know where she went back to?"
"……impossible."
When Fayi said the denial, he had actually already believed it for the most part.
If Elvis was lying, how did he know about the "parallel universe"?
Faye fell into a brief moment of contemplation.
From the time he started researching the time-space converter until now, his body has accumulated the irreversible side effects of "traveling through time and space".
At the beginning, his experiment was not about traveling through "parallel time and space".
"Parallel time and space" is a mysterious passage that he discovered later.
What he originally studied was how to "reverse time and space."
That is... how to travel back to ten years ago, when I had not met Tong Wanwan and everything had not happened yet.
After several attempts, he finally understood that everything in his time and space was predetermined. Even if a small detail or a major milestone was changed, in the end... through strange developments, the original outcome would still be reversed.
When he pulled himself out in a daze, he discovered that his hair had grown silver and his spiritual sea had inexplicably dried up.
Although no changes could be seen on the surface of her body, Faye had a premonition—
If he tried again, this body of his would quickly fail and die.
The last trip was his first time to a parallel universe.
After successfully returning with Tong Wanwan's soul, Fayi's own soul inexplicably had a rejection reaction with her body.
If Fayi had not used the super-new materials he collected to create a large number of auxiliary devices that could nourish the soul, perhaps... his body would have become a real empty shell, and his soul would have gradually dissipated because it could not find a place to live.
This feeling of emptiness, of the soul being half-connected from the body, is something that anyone who has experienced once would not want to experience again.
Fayi raised an eyebrow as if she had thought of something. "So, you want to learn the method of 'traveling through time and space' from me and bring Tong Wanwan back?"
"Yes." Elvis's expression was slightly serious. "I need the instrument you used before."
Fayi's eyes flickered slightly. "So, since it's a cooperation, what do you want to exchange for it?"
Elvis said calmly: "Your life."
Faye: “……?”
The silver-gray-haired man chuckled for a moment, as if he had heard the funniest joke of the century. "Let's not talk about it for now. How long can this body of yours hold out? Do you think... those fishing boats behind you can catch up to my yacht? They're full of bombs."
Elvis' eyes darkened, and without further ado, he proved his point with his actions.
Unexpectedly, the silver-haired man appeared in front of Fay and grabbed his pale and fragile neck. The red-gold mental power attached to his palm even emitted a translucent flame.
So fast!
Fayi was startled and could not see clearly the movement of his teleportation. She only felt an unbearable pain in her neck where it was pinched.
In a short while, a layer of cold sweat broke out on Fayi's forehead.
The gap and disparity between the levels of mental power are always difficult to bridge.
He could feel the hidden and restrained strength from the other party's tightening movements.
Elvis really wanted to kill him immediately, but because he needed help from him, he had to suppress the urge to hunt.
This discovery made Fayi shocked and excited at the same time.
"Don't think I really don't dare to take action." Ives ignored the trembling and bewildered gun muzzles around him. He approached Fay and said dissatisfiedly, "Do you think those bombs can stop my subordinates?"
Faye's eyes flashed.
"Besides... who told you that my body couldn't hold out for much longer?" He curled his lips. "You alone are not qualified to cause a mental riot in me."
As soon as he finished speaking, the red-gold flame in his palm suddenly extended from his arm and surrounded his entire body.
Under the sun, he looked like a handsome god of war, glowing with flames surrounding him.
Not only Fayi, but even the subordinates behind him widened their eyes.
They were also users with special abilities, and could materialize some of their mental power, but... they had never seen such a scene before, and had never seen anyone materialize their mental power into such realistic and fierce flames.
Even... the mysterious flame transformed from mental power quickly spread along the floor, and the railings behind the silver-haired man were all on fire.
The overwhelming heat and temperature made them shiver and step back uncontrollably.
It is clearly not a flammable material, but it catches fire as soon as it touches it. What a powerful and terrifying mental force!
Only then did Fayi truly feel that something had deviated from the track he had arranged.
"Your mental strength is not damaged?!"
How is this possible?
His special bullets can quickly kill even those with S-level psychic power. Even if Elvis is double S-level, he can only delay his death.
Suddenly thinking of something, a cold light flashed in Fayi's eyes.
He moved the most important conversion equipment into his storage ring, and as for most of the special materials he had looted... he handed them over to his subordinates on several other yachts.
Even if you obtain the converter from him, if you do not use the soul-nurturing aids made of special materials to protect yourself, and you rashly travel through parallel time and space, you will never return.
As if he had guessed what he was thinking, Ives said in a deep voice, "It's been dragging on for so long. I'm sure the men on your other ships have been captured."
Fayi: “…”
Have a backup plan?
The silver-gray-haired man, whose neck was being strangled and who was breathing in more than out, was silent for a while before he coughed softly.
He spoke in a hoarse voice, "Okay, I'll help you over there."
Elvis didn't let go of his hand. "Words are not enough. Turn back to the island immediately and hand over everything to me."
Fayi's eyes darkened as she suddenly smelled the odor of the burnt skin on her neck.
"...Go back." He ordered in a low voice.
Faye is not someone who doesn't know how to compromise.
On the contrary, he enjoyed the pleasure of turning the tide after being caught.
and……
If it were Elvis, he would definitely take her back without hesitation.
Since there is free labor, why not use it?
