To the naked eye, in Inspector Wang's eyes, Luo Zhe indeed looked exactly the same as before.

However, in Inspector Wang's keen perception, Luo Zhe was currently in a very strange state, as if a hollow space isolated from the world had formed around his body. Through his senses, Inspector Wang could feel a sharp Blade Intent slowly rising and gradually growing stronger within that hollow space!

In a daze, one could faintly, even hear, a clear slash of a blade!

The bald, middle-aged Thor also noticed Luo Zhe's unusual state. Having reached an extremely profound level of martial arts, Thor naturally knew what state Luo Zhe was in, so he didn't deliberately do anything, simply continuing to wield his War Blade. However, he adjusted the angle of each swing. Although the blade energy remained domineering and the whistling wind still soared freely, not a single blade energy or wind was directed towards Luo Zhe.

In Luo Zhe's view, the world was no longer normal. The empty, dark reception room had vanished, and even Hong and Inspector Wang, who were in the corner, had disappeared without a trace. Only a strange creature with a similar build to Thor, composed of veins and blocky muscle tissue, was still continuously swinging its sword.

In the ethereal space, thin cyan threads continuously emerged, gradually attaching themselves to the peculiar creature composed of its body's meridians and blocky muscle tissue. This allowed Luo Zhe to observe more closely how the energy flowed through the creature's meridians and how its blocky muscle tissue could better unleash its immense power.

As time passed, the strange creature gradually disappeared into the ethereal space, leaving only the glowing humanoid network composed of fine blue threads. With each swing of its sword, the network of blue threads would automatically activate the parts of the body that needed to exert force and the meridians that needed to be mobilized, emitting a bright light.

The more force is exerted, the brighter the light on the humanoid meridian diagram becomes. Especially when using the Fourth Layer the <Nine-Fold Thunder Blade>, the light shining from the waist and hip area in a short breath almost completely illuminates this Virtualized Space.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him, and Luo Zhe, who had been standing still, suddenly started to move!

To the horrified look on Inspector Wang's face, the expressionless Luo Zhe suddenly lunged forward, dodging the slashing War Blade in Thor's hand, disarming him with his bare hands. With Thor seemingly yielding, Luo Zhe actually managed to snatch the War Blade from Thor's grasp!

Then, under the gaze of Thor and the other two, Luo Zhe, holding his War Blade, stood still and closed his eyes.

Thor had a slight smile on his face, seemingly not embarrassed at all by Luo Zhe taking his War Blade. He stood quietly two meters away from Luo Zhe, watching Luo Zhe who was thinking with his eyes closed.

Meanwhile, in the corner, Inspector Wang were also watching, somewhat puzzled by Luo Zhe's earlier act of snatching the Thor's War Blade.

"Master," Inspector Wang asked in a low voice, "Luo Zhe didn't seem to have intentionally offended the Second Speaker just now. His eyes looked vacant; he probably hasn't recovered from his state of enlightenment yet."

Hong nodded and replied, "Let's see. Thor wouldn't bother arguing with a child over something so trivial."

Luo Zhe stood there for about ten minutes, motionless, like a wooden doll, just as Thor stretched out his right hand, hesitating whether to wake him up.

Suddenly, Luo Zhe opened his eyes, Azure Radiance flashing within them. He gripped his War Blade with both hands and raised it high above his head!

Call!

Luo Zhe twisted his body, and his War Blade slashed down fiercely at Thor beside him!

Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!

Four bursts of dark energy erupted from his waist and hips in an instant, carrying the Blade Intent. The speed reached a terrifying level. At the same time, a streak of snow-white sword light appeared out of nowhere in the dark reception room, as if a thunderbolt had appeared out of thin air. The speed was so fast that even when the War Blade broke the sound barrier and was about to strike Thor's head, the sound barrier had not yet been sounded.

However, Thor is the second strongest person in the world! He is said to possess the strongest physique and the fastest speed in the world!

Faced with such a fast-moving War Blade strike, even without any weapon in hand, Thor could War Blade Luo Zhe Luo Zhe in a mere instant, relying solely on his superior physical abilities and reflexes.

But Thor did not retaliate in the slightest. He merely shifted his foot slightly, causing Luo Zhe's slashing War Blade to fall into empty air.

The missed strike did not stop Luo Zhe's movements.

Instead, Luo Zhe frowned slightly, and the Azure Radiance in his eyes intensified. "Whoosh~ whoosh~ whoosh~" His War Blade slashed horizontally, cut diagonally, and thrust straight, unleashing a series of merciless strikes!

He looked ruthless, as if he wanted to kill Thor!

But Thor was no ordinary man; with a few effortless steps, he easily dodged Luo Zhe's successive attacks, and said with interest, "Continue!"

Luo Zhe didn't reply. Instead, he stood there frowning in thought, then suddenly made a couple of gestures.

In the Virtualized Space.

Looking at the incredibly agile 'Pulse Man' before him, Luo Zhe's brain was racing, trying to figure out how to strike the Pulse Man with his War Blade... Luo Zhe suddenly felt like he was doing math problems in school.

A very difficult math problem requires reasoning from various directions and given conditions, constantly refining and correcting the approach... until the problem is solved correctly.

Despite believing the saying "Nothing is difficult in the world if you are willing to give up," Luo Zhe did not work hard in his studies, always giving up on math problems, and even becoming a professional Fighter without taking the college entrance examination!

But Luo Zhe's mindset at this moment was as if he were 'solving a problem,' constantly expanding his thinking to study the sword technique and the movement of the person in front of him!

However, unlike when he was in school doing problems, Luo Zhe did not choose to give up this time. Instead, he took advantage of the unprecedentedly clear state of mind at this moment, which gave him a much stronger grasp and control over the subtle parts of his body and a faster brain processing speed than usual. He worked hard to study and 'do the problems'!

As he continued his contemplation, Luo Zhe suddenly had a moment of clarity.

Since the speed of this creature is much faster than the speed of the War Blade, it means that a single strike will not be enough to hit it!

If one cut isn't enough, then ten cuts! Twenty cuts! A hundred cuts!

Flowing on and on, endlessly!

Under the overwhelming barrage of sword light, no matter how skilled the opponent was, they could only die with regret!

Luo Zhe has made another move!

This time, he didn't just simply swing his War Blade; he unleashed his Perfect Level technique, moving repeatedly beside the Pulse Man and swinging his War Blade in succession! The sword light was icy cold, chilling to the bone!

Call!

Luo Zhe had lost count of how many times he had swung his sword in that short period of time! He only remembered the last sword light, as dazzling as Halley's Comet, flashing by in an instant. With just a flick of his War Blade, dozens of consecutive sword strikes illuminated the entire Virtualized Space with a chilling light. Each strike was almost simultaneous, completely enveloping the vascular figure!

A strange wave-like ripple was faintly present, resembling the overwhelming and awe-inspiring Qiantang River tidal bore. "Puff puff~~" The air seemed to be bursting like multiple balloons, producing a series of strange sonic booms like shock waves!

Finally, Luo Zhe vaguely remembered that after the dazzling sword light, the Virtualized Space completely collapsed, and Thor, whose clothes had a large hole in front of him, hugged him as everything went black.
