Illusion Shattered

"Fight the Magician."

"There's no need for such a big fuss."

Lu Zun looked at Chen Mudou with a peculiar smile on his face. He was not on guard at all, as if he had already won the battle.

"Nonsense!"

Chen Mudou, clutching his folder, stood in front of Qin Yiguan, shouting at the top of his lungs, "I only recently learned that Mingshu is incredibly powerful! You villains, Mingshu will utterly defeat you!"

And at this moment.

Qin Yiguan was almost paralyzed on the ground due to severe injuries to his limbs. Looking at Lu Zun's sinister smile, he suddenly had a bad feeling.

Could it be that Lu Zun knows the secret of Jiang Mingshu?

Lu Zun waved his hand, indicating that UM-3 and Mang Zhong did not need to take any action.

Lu Zun laughed and said, "Magician have always existed in legends, appearing and disappearing like dragons. Everyone says they are incredibly powerful, the fifth strongest in the Experimental Zone. The reason for such rumors is simply because some people have witnessed the Magician's methods. It's like performing magic tricks, with boundless power, leaving people in awe."

"But in reality, no one has ever seen the Magician in person."

Lu Zun looked at the girl in the cotton dress and chuckled, "Chen Mudou, do you know why this is?"

Chen Mudou frowned, "Because the magic tricks of the Mingshu are very powerful, if he doesn't want others to see them, then no one can see him!"

now.

Hiding in the distance, Baixiaosheng was somewhat stunned. "What nonsense is Lu Zun spouting? Isn't this girl Magician? And who is Mingshu?"

"Is Mingshu your boyfriend?"

Lu Zun asked with a smile, "Chen Mudou, does Jiang Mingshu like you a lot? Do you like Jiang Mingshu a lot too?"

"Of course!"

Holding the folder, Chen Mudou raised his head in one breath and said, "Lu Zun! Stop beating around the bush! Mingshu now! Ming Shu said he's getting impatient!"

"Hahaha!"

Lu Zun stared at Chen Mudou and laughed uncontrollably, "You're so pathetic!"

The next moment, the personal AI on Lu Zun's shoulder suddenly rose into the sky, flashing with light, and projected a dense array of video images across the entire sky.

But all that could be seen in the scene was Chen Mudou's figure.

She is doing all sorts of things: leaving get off work alone, eating alone, taking public transportation alone, and walking alone in a dilapidated town!

It's hard to imagine that Lu Zun had been using some clandestine tools to track and film Chen Mudou for a long time!

"The Magician is indeed very powerful."

"His Fusion Rate should be similar to mine, but his method is 'magic.'"

Lu Zun laughed, "His fighting style is completely illogical, with endless variations, making it impossible to defend against. If we were to actually face him head-on, the outcome would be truly unpredictable."

"I admit, from the very beginning of my Leviathan Project..."

"The Magician has been identified as the primary threat."

"Because that Magician is a righteous 'being'."

I have a son named Yi Zheng Xuan.

Lu Zun looked at the box covered by a red cloth on the stage. "He always wanted to prove his abilities to me, and more than once, he even tried to stand up for me and eliminate the Magician."

But I stopped Yi Zheng Xuan.

Lu Zun still had a kind smile on his face when he mentioned Yi Zheng Xuan, but in the next instant, when he looked at Chen Mudou, his expression suddenly became extremely mocking, "Because there's absolutely no need for that. Eliminating Magician is a piece of cake!"

At this moment, Chen Mudou was seen.

His eyes widened as he stared at the screens in mid-air, his body beginning to tremble violently.

In the video, Chen Mudou has just gotten off work and is overjoyed. She runs and rushes towards her boyfriend, embracing him tightly.

But in reality, Chen Mudou's embrace contained only air.

In the video, Chen Mudou is having dinner with her boyfriend. She carefully sets out the bowls and chopsticks for him and keeps putting various foods into his bowl.

But in reality, until Chen Mudou had finished her meal and was happily skipping away with her boyfriend, no one had touched the food.

In the video, Chen Mudou is sitting in the first row of the audience, in the very center, her face full of excitement, clapping and cheering as she enjoys her boyfriend's magic performance.

But in reality, the theater had long since collapsed, and the cracked cement stage was covered in dust. The only thing that could move was the withered leaves blown by the wind.

There are hundreds, if not thousands, of similar scenes.

"Chen Mudou, now I have to tell you some news that everyone knows."

Lu Zun smiled faintly, "Your boyfriend doesn't exist!"

This sentence.

Like a sledgehammer weighing ten thousand pounds.

It struck Chen Mudou directly in the heart, and her eyes widened in shock!

"I have to say."

Lu Zun chuckled, "You, Chen Mudou, are absolutely one in a billion. Your Fusion Rate isn't high, but you're able to perfectly unleash the power of your subconscious."

Oh, by the way.

Do you know what the subconscious is?

Lu Zun's expression turned vicious in an instant, and he said, word by word, heavily. "The subconscious is something that cannot be seen, touched, or even exist in a physical form!"

And in that very moment...

In mid-air, the images of Chen Mudou and her boyfriend 'spending time' changed from hundreds to tens of thousands, and then from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands.

In all the scenes, it is only Chen Mudou.

These images, reflected in Chen Mudou's nearsighted glasses, were like an inescapable net, enveloping her mind and tightening its grip.

"You're talking nonsense!"

At that moment, Chen Mudou suddenly shouted at the top of his lungs, "Jiang Mingshu really exists! He's standing right next to me!"

"Standing right beside you?"

Lu Zun chuckled and looked at Baixiaosheng, who was hiding on the side of the stage. "Aren't you known as the Metaverse Know-It-All? Let me ask you a very basic question: What does Jiang Mingshu look like, and what clothes is he wearing?"

Baixiaosheng stood there, stunned. "This... this..."

"Hehe."

Lu Zun smiled, then looked at Jingye Meinan, "Aren't you in charge of the two strongest intelligence organizations in the world? Then tell me, or have your girls tell me, what exactly does Jiang Mingshu look like?"

Jingye Meinan stood there, stunned.

The girls were the same, looking bewildered and exchanging glances.

Chen Mudou looked at everyone, tears streaming uncontrollably from her eyes.

Immediately.

Lu Zun then looked at UM-3 in the air, "It is equipped with thousands of detectors, which can see even dust clearly. My partner UM-3, can you see Jiang Mingshu?"

The UM-3 roared.

Suddenly, a huge red cross appeared on the old-fashioned LED screen.

Qin Yiguan's blood had already stained the nearby ground red. He growled, "Mudou, don't believe Lu Zun's lies!"

"Nonsense?"

Lu Zun shouted, "Chen Mudou, haven't you recognized yourself yet? Look at yourself! You're so short, your clothes are so ugly, and your appearance is absolutely repulsive!"

"Jiang Mingshu must be handsome and dashing, right? And his strength is so formidable, why would he be interested in you?"

"There are countless beautiful women in the world, many more gentle and adorable than you!"

"What merit do you possess to deserve the favor of such a person?"

The reason is simple!

"Jiang Mingshu doesn't exist at all; he's a boyfriend you've imagined!"

"And you, Chen Mudou, are just an ugly woman who indulges in unrealistic fantasies and daydreams all day long!"
