Chapter 550 479: Montage-Style Rules [Double-Length] (Part 2)
Chichu Chun was shocked and numb, unable to make a successful attack, he quickly retreated, while Jason's large hand reached out simultaneously.
Bai Youyou hurried from the side, gripping the handle of the hammer with both hands, let out a low shout, and the heavy hammer whistled upward, deflecting Jason's hand. With her foundational abilities reaching the pinnacle, she was the only one in the team barely capable of directly confronting Jason.
Angelina seized the moment of Jason's imbalance, threw the silver spear in her hand, space layers shattered, the silver light flashed and disappeared, carrying Jason's massive body swiftly towards the rear of the carriage!
Jason let out a muffled grunt, his legs slammed into the ground, carving two deep grooves into the ground, his chest surged like a towering mountain, and he deflected the lance in a penetrating stance.
In the next instant, Angelina appeared out of thin air, grabbing the lance, the spear's shadow split the air in disarray, sweeping horizontally, chopping, upward slashing, straight stabbing, spinning stab, the seamless moves were wielded by the girl with ease.
Under this furious assault, Jason stubbornly blocked all the offensives head-on, the cold gun shadows swept across his chest, leaving only cyan metallic marks, seeming at ease. Instead, Angelina had to avoid the snake-like iron hooks that occasionally stabbed at her while launching her assault.
Jason seized the opportunity, grabbed Angelina's lance, a cruel smile appeared on his face, his bulky muscles twisted together, looking as ghastly as an evil ghost.
The next moment, the sharp axe in his hand suddenly lifted, blood-red violent shadows materialized, stirring up a terrifying blood tide smashing towards Angelina, with an overwhelming force to annihilate the silver-haired girl in the vicious blood shadow!
Bai Youyou, seeing the situation, decisively raised her hand to activate 'Rectify Life Link' and 'Holy Rank Protection', converting her own life value into explosive decaying attributes added to Angelina, providing her with significant damage reduction!
Seeing Angelina's whole body radiate dazzling golden light, three golden shields appeared, corresponding to justice, righteousness, and truth, surprising attribute numbers popped up, in an instant, her strength, agility, and constitution simultaneously soared nearly three hundred points!
Angelina seized the opportunity, wielded the Abyssal White Flower, performed Thousand Blades and Ten Thousand Reds, tearing apart the overwhelming vile blood shadow, suddenly burst shot the silver spear again, this time the white light flickered, directly piercing Jason's chest!
In the midst of heavy breathing, the surged attributes decayed to half, with a blink of an eye, the three golden shields vanished, Angelina's attributes returned to normal, and Bai Youyou's health dropped sharply to thirty percent.
Watching Jason get up from the ground as if nothing happened, Angelina felt troubled.
A bowl-sized penetrating wound on Jason's chest continuously spewed fresh blood, yet his life value remained still. By the rules, the Awakened cannot inflict substantial damage on the Tag Catcher, even if they annihilate him in an instant, the Tag Catcher will revive in a very short time.
"Player Name: Jason"
"Level: Fifth Tier One (Pseudo)"
"Race: Lutemon Race"
"Life Value: 99% (3329)"
"Spirit Value: 37"
"Guild Affiliation: Slaughterer"
"Current Buff Status: Ferocious Roar, Blood Burning, Frenzy, Electric Shield, Master, Spirit Conversion, Special Attack Immunity, Darwin Skin, Tag Catcher"
"Overall Quality Rating: Very Strong"
"He can convert spirit value into attributes." Bai Youyou immediately judged.
"Eight hundred agility, nearly one thousand three hundred power, fifteen hundred constitution, this guy's attributes have already far surpassed the ordinary Fifth Tier." Angelina straightened her body.
"Wait, how did he lose blood?" Chichu Chun was puzzled.
Logically speaking, no matter how terrifying the damage they dealt to this guy, it would only be limited to superficial, unable to truly harm his essence. Even the blood deduction effect of 'Blood Burning' would be canceled out by the Tag Catcher's effect, but his life value still dropped a bit.
"Maybe he accidentally bumped himself?" Angelina also faintly felt strange.
"No." Chichu Chun shook her head. "The side effects of the Combat Professional's Blood Burning effect would be neutralized, meaning he wouldn't lose blood due to self-harming measures."
"It's the RoboCop." Xu Xiaoyou timely spoke. "That one drop of blood was scratched by a stray bullet from the RoboCop earlier."
Everyone was stunned, looking at Jason, who was absorbing blood energy from the carriage and standing up again from the pool of blood, all realized Xu Xiaoyou's reason for slaughtering in the carriage.
"Didn't you notice, this guy can't harm the passengers and Disciplinary Officers in the carriage, but he can harm the RoboCop, and the RoboCop can also harm him, which already explains the matter quite a lot."
"I have already found the hidden victory method of this game." Xu Xiaoyou's face remained calm as the train slowly entered the platform. "I'm not sure if you remember the rules announced by the system at the start of the game."
A sentence appeared in everyone's mind.
——"The Tag Catcher will be enhanced, attributes far exceeding the average of both sides in the current instance and cannot be killed by players."
This rule was misleading; initially, including Xu Xiaoyou, everyone misinterpreted the meaning of this sentence.
The focus of this sentence is not on 'killed', but on the word 'player'. The instance designer had bound the Tag Catcher's strength and inability to be killed together, misleading players' understanding, allowing them to think the Tag Catcher is absolutely invincible.
In fact, as it states literally, the Tag Catcher is merely unable to be killed by players, but there still exists a possibility of being killed.
For instance...
The girls looked at the broken RoboCop crawling on the ground.
Since the RoboCop's attack can cause substantial damage to the Tag Catcher, it implies he can also kill it.
Every unreasonable element has its own reason.
The hidden victory method of this game is to kill the Tag Catcher.
"But considering this guy, how could the RoboCop possibly kill Jason, not to mention he still has self-recovery methods." Angelina looked at the scrap crawling towards them and raised her doubts.
"A single RoboCop obviously can't kill this guy, but what if there's more than one?"
"A quantitative change causes a qualitative change."
"Don't forget, we previously lowered the total score by twenty-seven, so a RoboCop boarded at the Huoxun Medical Center platform. Clearly, the decreased score allows action restrictions to be lifted, and the appearance of RoboCop is a penalty mechanism."
"Such a penalty mechanism evidently is not limited to one RoboCop, it is highly likely to be deployed based on the total score reduced between the two platforms."
"That's why I suggested you lower the team's total score to eighty this time, to calculate how much the total score must decrease for a RoboCop to be deployed."
"Why not just subtract all the points if more RoboCops are better?" Angelina said off the cuff.
"Could you please not communicate by 'instinct' again?" Bai Youyou exasperatedly facepalmed.
"What did I say wrong, Rice Wine, isn't this correct?" Angelina sought support but found Chichu Chun also looking at her with a complex expression.
"More RoboCops aren't necessarily better since their primary targets are us, at least the number must be controlled within our manageable range."
"Then just eliminate the extras, right?" Angelina frowned.
Chichu Chun and Bai Youyou were stunned.
The other side's words actually made a bit of sense.
Indeed, just solve those exceeding the control range. They can't handle the Tag Catcher, but disposing of several RoboCops is a piece of cake, right? The more RoboCops they summon, the more advantageous it seemingly is for them. Because this way, they can precisely control the number of RoboCops to be just enough to kill the Tag Catcher.
It was the first time they saw the brilliance of wisdom emitting instinctively from Angelina.
The train stopped at the platform, once again the pouncing Jason was blocked outside the air wall.
Could it be,
One Angelina > One Xu Xiaoyou?
"It seems you all have been infected by Anya's instinct." Xu Xiaoyou began to worry about the future of Light Chasing Garden.
Angelina's instinct was arguably more terrifying than the Siren King's memetic contamination.
"This brings us to another rule announced when the train started."
Xu Xiaoyou waved her hand, and the rule recorded in the notepad appeared before the girls.
——"Game Rule 2: Your actions are restricted, as you lower your own score, the restrictions on behavior will gradually be lifted."
"In the instance, what players see is what the designer wants them to see."
"Have you ever thought that lifting the restriction in behavior might not be solely targeting us?"
