Fan Daoyi's originally calm emotions inexplicably fluctuated. As the mysterious Scales tilted slightly, black holes in the sky began to quietly emerge one after another, their numbers gradually increasing, as if they were about to devour the entire sky.
The half-skeletal, half-flesh, half-blood humanoid creature was too conspicuous. Wu Ma, standing on the rooftop, sharpened his eyes and, without hesitation, nocked a long arrow, his aura instantly converging at his fingertips.
With a low shout, the arrow streaked across the sky like a meteor, moving so fast that it was almost impossible for the naked eye to catch it, leaving only a fleeting trace in the air.
Just as they were about to approach the creature, many colorful balloons suddenly appeared around it, blocking the arrows.
The arrow seemed to have lost its way, heading straight for its master.
At the critical moment, Chen Dragon reacted quickly, stretching out his long arm to grab Wu Ma's neck, lightly tapping his feet, and leaping away with Wu Ma to escape at full speed.
The arrow grazed their clothes and struck the building they had been standing in. With a deafening roar, the building collapsed instantly, sending bricks and stones flying and dust billowing everywhere.
The Azure Dragon transformed into a thick fog, silently weaving through the ruins and chaos before reappearing. With a wave of his hand, the swirling clouds in the sky seemed to receive a command, rapidly gathering and tightly enveloping the half-bone, half-flesh creature.
However, the Scales in the creature's hand suddenly shone brightly, instantly dispelling the mist and scattering the clouds into pieces.
Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly difficult to control, Fan Daoyi's behavior became strangely irrational.
He broke away from the crowd and Teleportation alone to the creature's side, attempting to seize the Scales. His speed was so fast that those around him had no time to stop or react.
"Haha, Dao Yi." The creature let out a strange laugh, leisurely reciting his name, his words full of pleasure, "Having fun?"
Fan Daoyi had no memory of this skeletal creature. His brows were furrowed, his expression cold and stern, and he ignored the man's words, his only thought being to seize the Scales.
He mobilized the power within his body and used the power of space to try to switch the positions of the Scales.
"That won't do." The Bone and Flesh Creature seemed to have anticipated his actions, freeing one hand to gently draw a circle in the air. In an instant, the circle transformed into a dazzling bubble, like an invisible net, trapping Fan Daoyi within it. "Since we agreed to the game, we should abide by the rules."
As he spoke, he fell into deep thought, "My ability can trap you for about 32 seconds now, but it's 28 seconds now. Of course, if you don't use the Analysis, it will still be 32 seconds."
So, if you use the Analysis after I say it, it will now take 25 seconds, but going back to the original idea, it will now take 19 seconds.
So many possibilities! How many seconds are left? This is so exciting and fun!
I bet you're cursing me in your heart, you must be. Ah ha, this is really interesting.
That's fucking ridiculous.
As the creature expected, Fan Daoyi's words were indeed full of insults. From the very first sentence the strange creature uttered, those inexplicable yet mocking remarks made Fan Daoyi feel irritated and angry.
When he was trapped by this strange bubble that was clearly beyond his ability, he used his Analysis almost without hesitation.
If we accept the 32-second rule, there are less than ten seconds left.
The creature of flesh and blood seemed to be lost in its own daydreams, as if the situation around it had nothing to do with it. It was the crow above its head that couldn't wait any longer.
flapping its wings, it slammed them down hard on the creature's head with a "whoosh".
"Oh, don't be in such a hurry, after all..."
Fan Daoyi broke through the bubble, and the Scales that the creature held appeared in his hand.
The creature seemed unsurprised, slowly extending its bony claw to pick up a transparent, glass-like chip. At the same time, it tightly gripped a white porcelain chess piece in its palm.
"Once the Scales tip, it's too late to stop them."
The black hole obscured the sky, and one after another, eerie giant worms emerged from it. They were enormous and exuded a chilling aura.
Behind these giant insects, there were also layers upon layers of dense swarms of insects, surging towards the ground like a black tide.
A blaze of fire erupted at the entrance of the black hole, engulfing the swarm of insects. Their outer shells were charred and crispy, yet not a single one died.
"Who... are you?" Dao Yi stared at the creatures of flesh and blood in the sky, still devoid of his former rationality.
"A passerby assisting with the agreement, an obedient raven supervising." The creature of flesh and blood toyed with the chip, smiling broadly. "Dao Yi, you shouldn't be so recklessly opposing me right now."
With that, he gently raised his hand and tossed the chips into the air. The chips traced a graceful arc in the air before slowly falling from his hand.
Below, someone looked up at the scene, their gaze filled with a hint of inquiry.
After several movements within the space, the chips settled back on the left side of the Scales, and the Scales slowly began to recover.
"Don't blink." The skeletal creature seemed to be joking with Fan Daoyi, "I'll give you a little surprise."
The magnificent and mysterious Scales in Fan Daoyi's hand instantly transformed into a burst of fireworks, which exploded without warning in the sky, illuminating the entire sky with dazzling brilliance.
The moment the fireworks burst open, the intense light shone on Fan Daoyi's face. A look of shock and confusion flashed in his eyes at first, but then a clear look quickly appeared.
He subconsciously frowned, his mind racing as he tried to recall what he had just done.
Those impulsive actions flashed through his mind, and he realized how irrational his behavior had been, completely losing his usual composure.
Suddenly, his pupils dilated, and his previous answer to the question changed, "My understanding is that you..."
"It wasn't me." The creature clearly guessed what he was going to say and immediately denied it.
He showed no sign of panic, a slight upturn at the corners of his mouth, a hint of amusement in his smile, "I'm just joining in the fun to make sure the agreement goes smoothly."
Of course, I can offer a reminder. For example, at certain times, you need a suitable reason to meet someone. After the meeting, there will be even more lies.
"Then what's the reason for the meeting?"
He raised an eyebrow slightly. "Hmm, I'm still more interested in you as you are now. The way you seem ready to deceive me at any moment makes things even more unpredictable."
The figures of the skeletal creature and the crow slowly blurred and disappeared in the light and shadow, their voices ethereal and lingering. "As for the reason, it's quite clear: the Scales are tilted, returning to Balance."
Have fun again, and deceive with more lies.
Road."
