The translucent subtitles in front of him kept jumping. Tao Sai leaned against the wall, waiting for the high resistance to restore his organs and tissues.
[You have gained 72 attribute points (can be freely allocated).]
[You have acquired the skill [Eternal Life·A-Level]: After equipping this skill, you will not die.]
[You have acquired the skill [Painlessness·D-Rank]: After equipping this skill, you will ignore any pain.]
I only managed to steal two skills from the foreigner. He clearly had more, but unfortunately, they were all erased along with his player information. After all, skills and attribute points are only acquired through chance.
But it's not a big problem, the most important skills are obtained, [Eternity] and [Painlessness].
There is no doubt that the blood lock [Eternal Presence] is really an incredible skill. If the tank had not been punished by her and his [Collapse] suddenly broke out, it might be impossible to kill him.
Then again, Collapse truly understood her instructions. She'd increased its power and obeyed. She'd truly made a difference. After the unchecked swarms of devouring insects over the past few days, Tao Sai could clearly sense its growth, especially when it suddenly erupted, devouring a man over 1.9 meters tall in a matter of seconds. So terrifying!
If [collapse] is allowed to continue developing, the destructive power will be unimaginable. This will be her biggest killer.
Even more incredible, the S-rank divine skill [Collapse] consumes very little energy, allowing for nearly unlimited uses. The singularity can be activated and deactivated at will, without entering a cooldown. Perhaps other S-rank divine skills are just as incredible, but she couldn't verify it, given the small sample size she currently possessed.
Another skill I acquired, [Eternity], is also very useful. Although it is only D-level, its functionality is very strong.
Tao Sai could already imagine that after equipping [Eternity], she could attack more aggressively in battle, because basically no skill could kill her instantly.
With [Eternity] by her side, she is like an indestructible cockroach. She can even be more extravagant and do some more imaginative things.
[Painlessness] is undoubtedly a good partner of [Eternity]. It allows you to ignore the pain in your body and not be distracted even if you are injured in battle. You can concentrate 100% of your energy on your opponent.
After resting for about ten minutes, the organs and tissues of the body gradually recovered their basic functions. Time was running out, and this was enough for Tao Sai. The rest was left to her body to slowly recover. She had more important things to deal with.
Propping himself up from the ground, Tao Sai spoke in the alliance channel.
[Cx330 (Lv4)]: How are you guys doing?
[Zhizhi (Lv4)]: Sister Sai, we have basically added all the dead soldiers who can add characters directly, and the remaining ones on the ship cannot be added. The player identity should have been transferred to several of the dead soldiers, but we cannot distinguish which specific dead soldier became the player.
[Cx330 (Lv4)]: There's no rush. You guys continue cleaning up the battlefield. I've almost finished my job.
After the message was sent, Tao Sai suddenly thought of Tang Yingxue who was sniping on an island a few kilometers away. It seemed that she had not reported the situation for a while.
So she continued to circle people in the alliance channel.
[Cx330 (Lv4)]: @(Tang Sixi), Yingxue, how are things going over there?
While waiting for a reply, Tao Sai clicked on the alliance list in the [Interaction] module, and then clicked on the detailed information of the alliance Jiange.
The total number of members is 2/10, one player is Gao Shanfeng, and the other is nowhere to be found. If he's still on these refuge ships, it's unlikely he's hiding somewhere, nor is it likely he's not ordering his subordinates to continue the attack. The only possibility is that he's not currently here and unaware of the status of the remaining refuge ships. He's likely already sneaked onto the island where Tang Yingxue was sniping.
Just when Tao Sai was considering whether to rush to the island to provide reinforcements immediately, Tang Yingxue replied in Hailou's alliance channel.
[Tang Sixi (Lv4)]: Sister Sai, I have someone here, but I should be able to handle it.
[Cx330 (Lv4)]: Okay, be careful. We've basically finished the fight here. If anything goes wrong, I'm always here to support you. If the opponent's skills are too strong, you can circle Xiao Guo and have him use the Diffuse Mist. We'll keep in touch.
[Tang Sixi (Lv4)]: OK
Just as Tao Sai had anticipated, the last player from Jiange reached the island Tang Yingxue had targeted. Since Tang Yingxue was confident she could handle it on her own, she left it to her. Each of them needed to grow and develop the ability to stand on their own two feet. She couldn't take on everything herself; she needed to leave them some room to grow.
Moreover, Tao Sai also has enough confidence in Tang Yingxue. After his crazy and devilish training using illusions and countless life-and-death battles, she may not lose.
Tao Sai closed the Alliance channel page and glanced around.
Besides the foreigner Christie, whom she had just dispatched, there should also be the woman in the black dress with big wavy hair. However, the strange thing was that even though she was in excruciating pain from the foreigner's infrasonic attack, the woman did not show up, did not finish off the enemy, and did not do anything.
Maybe he escaped?
He probably ran away. Otherwise, not to mention two against one, even if he just stood aside and watched coldly, Tao Sai would have to be careful and alert.
Thinking of this, Tao Sai breathed a sigh of relief. The battle was basically over. In addition to cleaning up the battlefield and counting the spoils, it was also necessary to treat the wounded.
She walked towards the safe house, opened the metal door with both hands, and walked towards Feng who was lying on the box.
Gao Shanfeng's face was covered with bruises and swelling, his cheeks, lips, and eyes were swollen, he was almost unrecognizable, and blood was still oozing from the corners of his mouth.
She saw Towsey come in and tried to smile, because it was one of the few things she could do when they didn't speak the same language, but she failed because the slightest expression on her face would tear the wound, and the large hematoma on her skin and muscles was also trying hard to prevent the facial nerve from functioning.
Tao Sai squatted down, pointed outside with her hand gesture, and then made a gesture of wiping her neck, indicating that the people outside had been killed by her.
The wind made a sound in her throat, and she couldn't help but want to speak, forgetting the language barrier and the fact that her throat was damaged.
Tao Sai waved her hand, indicating that she didn't need to say anything, and she was going to take her for treatment now.
Feng nodded slightly.
Tao Sai first confirmed the injured part of her body, then put one hand on her back and the other hand on her knee, preparing to pick her up by the waist.
At this moment, Tao Sai suddenly noticed something strange. She caught a glimpse of a figure in the corner of the safe house.
Tao Sai turned around suddenly and quickly adjusted herself to combat status, with the electric arc appearing on her palm in perfect sync with her body movements.
This was a manifestation of her complete fusion of skills and body. At this point, her skills were no longer just skills, but had become a part of her body, just like her hands. When in a healthy state, her brain could control the movements of her hands at will. Achieving this effect was the result of countless hours of practice in the illusion.
The man who came into view was an oriental-looking man, no older than thirty, with short, dense hair. His facial features weren't sharp, but rather gentle, seemingly non-aggressive. Of course, Tao Sai wasn't fooled by his appearance; he believed he truly wasn't aggressive.
He sat on a leather chair, leaning back, and the sponge of the leather chair sank quite a bit, proving that he was really in a relaxed and leisurely state.
But the more this happened, the more uneasy Tao Sai became.
Tao Sai felt Feng's body trembling slightly in her hand. At this time, she turned her head to look at the man, and after seeing the man's face, she felt a sense of fear in her heart.
Tao Sai remembered Feng as a skilled fighter. Through the Jiange members' explanations, she learned that Feng had achieved numerous accomplishments and accolades in the martial arts world before becoming a player. These achievements certainly weren't simply achieved through sheer luck; they likely began at a young age, with relentless training day and night, and repeated battles within the octagonal cage. Such a person must possess a mind as strong as iron. Before Tao Sai arrived at this safe house, she couldn't imagine what she had endured. She must have struggled to break free from her restraints, and despite all the adverse effects, she fought a desperate battle against an opponent far stronger than Christie within this specially constructed octagonal cage, ultimately achieving the final victory. When Tao Sai found her, her body was covered in wounds, with not a single piece of healthy flesh on her body. She didn't cry, she didn't show any weakness, her gaze steadfast.
But now, Feng felt fear when he saw the man's face.
Tao Sai could probably imagine the identity of the man sitting on the chair at this moment.
Tao Sai had no idea when he had appeared here. At least he hadn't been there when she first entered the safe house. And just now, because the metal door wasn't open wide enough, not much light from the corridor outside could penetrate, leaving the corner where he was in shadow, so she hadn't noticed him. At that time, Tao Sai had used her clone to return directly to the outside of the safe house, and the metal door remained closed, indicating that he had used some kind of displacement technique to get here.
The man gently supported his chin with one hand, looked at Tao Sai, and said, "Hello, my name is Liu He."
Tao Sai swallowed his saliva imperceptibly.
Before his death, Shen Yi had introduced her to Liu He, the face of Paradise Island, Mr. Liu, master of the S-rank divine skill, [Soul Rip]. His [Soul Rip] had transformed countless of the strongest and most muscular soldiers in the army into emotionless, blindly obedient killing tools. It's no exaggeration to say that he was one of the instigators, perhaps the sole one, of the expansion of Paradise Island and its plundering and slaughter of other players.
Tao Sai did not answer, her face expressionless, with only endless murderous intent in her eyes. It took less than a second for the blood in her body to go from calm to boiling wildly.
While keeping her body motionless, she opened the system panel and equipped each of them with appropriate skills.
He must be very difficult to kill, and it must be ten or a hundred times harder than killing Christie who has the blood lock. Otherwise, he wouldn't be sitting here so calmly and leisurely now.
But the variable is [collapse], which is a magical skill that can create infinite possibilities. The collapse movement of matter is unstoppable, and even light cannot escape from the black hole.
Tao Sai was silently talking to [Collapse] in his heart.
"Let's explode again. If you can eat him, I'll let you eat whatever you want in the future."
[collapse] whimpered twice, probably because he understood what she said. They now had such a tacit understanding.
Her mind quickly mapped out her next attack. She would use her [clone] to charge in close, unleashing a singularity as she advanced, then unleashing a charged [Thunderbolt]. Then, she would switch her consciousness from the clone back to her true self, using her true self to [teleport] in the face and deliver a powerful punch. She then switched her consciousness back to the clone and delivered a side kick. This simultaneous attack from the clone, the true self, and [Thunderbolt] wouldn't matter if it damaged him or not, at least it would distract him, and that was enough. The most crucial aspect of the attack was the [Collapse]. If she could get the [Collapse] to erupt before him, anything was possible.
Tao Sai strengthened his conviction and asked in a puzzled manner, "Who are you?"
The moment the words came out of his mouth, the steps planned in his mind had already begun to be executed. Her question was just a pretext to distract him for even a fraction of a second.
In just a blink of an eye, the original body, the clone, and [Thunder] trinity attacked him, and [Collapse] was also summoned from a hidden location.
The next moment, the lightning ball from [Thunder] struck his body, sank directly into it, and disappeared. A heavy punch came towards his face, and the fist instantly sank into his chest.
No, it’s not immersed, it’s not touched at all!
Tao Sai realized belatedly that this was just an illusory projection, an extremely realistic virtual projection.
The man's lazy voice penetrated her ears, "You're going a bit too far."
Unperturbed, Tao Sai bounced back cautiously, leaning his back against the wall of the safe house, his eyes scanning around to observe where his real body might be.
"Don't be nervous, I'm not here." Liu He smiled.
He stretched out his hand and disappeared into the darkness. When he stretched out his hand again, he was holding a small cup of tea, which he put to his lips and took a sip.
Tao Sai could basically judge that the other person was not here, and might still be on Paradise Island. Then he used some skill to project his image here one-to-one, and the small teacup just now was not within the projection range.
"I actually value talent. I've observed you for a while and I think you're quite good. I suddenly don't want to kill you anymore," Liu He said, then changed the subject. "How about helping me? Paradise Island will write off all its ties with you. Come to me and I'll give you whatever you want, including the best resources you can imagine."
Since it was just an illusion projected, there was no need for Tao Sai to pay attention to him.
Completely ignoring the man in the corner, she walked back to Feng, squatted down, and prepared to carry her back to the room to heal her injuries.
"You may not know me very well. I am a businessman. Our Liu family has been honest businessmen for generations. We businessmen value integrity the most. I will do what I say. Hey, are you listening?" Liu He even emphasized his tone at the end.
The other party obviously didn't have it, because she had already hugged Feng by the waist and created a miniature space vortex. At the other end of the vortex was the captain's room on the top floor of the bridge.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Even though many people have begged me on their knees, I wouldn't give it to them. Are you really not going to consider it?"
Tao Sai's ears filtered out his voice and he stepped forward into the vortex of space.
She gently placed Feng on the bed, then turned around and turned on the light in the captain's room. As the light came on, she saw Liu He's projection appear in the corner of the room.
Tao Sai was subconsciously shocked because the projection was no different from the real person. The light in the safe house was not good just now, but now he could see his full appearance and even the skin texture on his face with the help of the light.
This is the most outrageous thing about this so-called projection, it can reflect light.
The projected Liu He was wearing a Chinese long gown, his face looked more tired, and there were dark circles under his eyes.
Tao Sai didn't waste too much time on him. He opened the alliance chat channel to call the nurse Shi Jiahui, unscrewed the cap of a bottle of recovery potion and fed it to Feng.
"That's a pity, Tao Sai, you may have missed the best boss you could ever meet in your life." Liu He's tone was full of regret, and his gaze shifted to Feng on the bed.
Feng Ye was looking at him nervously.
"Now it's your turn, Feng," said Liu He.
"I figured you might have a few things up your sleeve, but I didn't expect you to have so many. You even killed Niang. That's awesome."
"Eh," he said, only to then realize that he had forgotten to switch languages, and quickly repeated what he had just said in Japanese.
Tao Sai clearly saw Feng clench his fists, and because he clenched them too tightly, they kept shaking.
"But have you ever thought about this?" Liu He's voice was still light, but his eyes flashed with a cold light. "If you betray me, how will your most respected teacher die?"
