Chapter 2221: Kill the Player
By this point, blondie could no longer open his Personal Panel. He hadn't lost contact with the game; he was trapped in an illusion, and his judgment and sense of his own actions had become unreliable. The items he thought he was holding might not be items at all, and the enemies he saw might not be enemies. In the worst cases, nothing he touched was necessarily real.
Footsteps approached from behind. Blondie wiped away his tears and turned, but saw no one. Just as he thought he might have imagined the sound, the footsteps drew closer. He quickly got up and moved away, staring toward the sound. "Come out!"
Seeing that blondie couldn't see him, Xu Huo stopped. He gathered a point of Manifestation at his fingertip and cut through the Spiritual World before him. Stepping through the rift, he asked, "Why are you alone?"
Blondie still didn't dare let his guard down. "Are you a Mental Evolver?"
Xu Huo nodded. He opened up his Spiritual World, pushing back the mental energy inside the temple and forcibly creating an environment with less pressure. His mental interference wasn't strong enough to make a player lose their grip on reality in such a short time. So, once blondie was inside his Spiritual World, he suddenly came back to life and opened his Personal Panel!
"It opened! It really opened!" Blondie hurriedly started taking out his items. "Let's get them all out before the Personal Panel stops working again!"
Xu Huo walked over. "What happened to the other players? There are a lot fewer now."
"They died." Blondie instinctively rubbed the eye on his arm. "See this? Someone found out that these eyes, which represent how deeply you've been affected mentally, can be transferred to someone else.
