In the charging troops, who can be rightfully protected?
Coach!
Unless the enemy has something that can disrupt the formation, a powerful general or commander-in-chief is needed to deal with it. In the era of super-martial arts, the commander-in-chief is usually the strongest in the entire army. In addition to having strong military capabilities, he also needs to have the strongest personal abilities.
Logically speaking, A Li shouldn't play such a role, because he would definitely be exposed if he had to use his personal abilities, but this battle is different.
If the opponent is smart enough, they can calculate that the Buddha in the temple would never dare to charge into battle himself. Even if all his men are killed, he would at most choose to break through and escape. Once they have judged this, the position of commander-in-chief is actually very suitable.
"Has Mr. Wang made his decision?"
Seeing the powerful army advancing unstoppably, with dozens of Arhats already falling victim to the hail of blades, their mission would be in vain once the Buddhist temple in Liuzhou was destroyed.
But neither the King of Qin nor the ashamed Buddha was in a hurry. Only when the King of Qin took a step did the Buddha ask with a smile.
"More or less." The King of Qin took a small step and vanished from his spot in an instant.
The Buddha remained compassionate, his hands clasped together, and he murmured Buddhist chants.
"Brothers, our chance to achieve great things is just around the corner, isn't it?"
A while ago, Tian Liang suddenly froze, and when he looked up again, he was completely immersed in a landscape painting.
In the world of ink painting, there is a man in white sitting there quietly drinking tea, and Tian Liang recognizes him at a glance.
" Second Master Shen?"
Shen Er glanced at Tian Liang, picked up his teacup, took a slow sip, and said to the sky, "Looks like you misjudged."
Tian Liang was taken aback, but then he immediately understood.
I've met that person!
Your King of Qin A Li said that the greatest enemy this time was not the Buddhist temple, but that legendary man.
"That's quite interesting," came the voice of the King of Qin from the sky.
"Don't underestimate A Li!" Shen Er smiled slightly. "She's quite cunning these days. It was she who turned the tide in Liuzhou against that woman from ancient times. Don't judge her by your old standards, or you'll make a mistake, King of Qin Highness!"
"That's none of your concern," the King of Qin replied indifferently, and then said nothing more.
Shen Er looked outside, his expression grave.
Little fox, Liuzhou is counting on you this time!
This is truly unexpected.
The King of Qin, now transformed into Tian Liang, commanded the battlefield, his eyes gleaming coldly.
That fox has certainly improved!
Of the entire army, only Tian Liang was being protected. Choosing to impersonate Tian Liang was already an extremely risky move. In the King of Qin's view, this should be the limit that the fox could achieve, but he was clearly wrong. The other side had overestimated the situation!
Besides Tian Liang not directly facing combat, he also has bodyguards protecting him!
They followed Tian Liang the whole time, and the guards wouldn't move unless Tian Liang was attacked. That fox is so bold, daring to do this!
The King of Qin was cautiously on guard, because any of his dozen or so personal guards could be the fox!
Calm down. Although the fox has calculated her entry point, she can't predict when to do so. He knows that this fox needs to expend energy each time she uses her memory-reading ability, and she can only probe once every so often.
All I need to do is find the other person during this gap period.
Is Your Highness the King of Qin looking for me?
The familiar, alluring voice rang out almost right next to his ear. The King of Qin's pupils contracted, and by the time he realized what was happening, it was too late. He was already inside a world of ink paintings.
"What did I say, Your Highness?"
When they met again, Shen Er, holding a teacup, said with a mocking expression, "Don't underestimate that fox."
The King of Qin looked around in shock.
He himself had actually entered his own ink painting world?
What's going on?
I was replaced?
"Your Highness seems still puzzled?" Shen Er put down his teacup and smiled at the bewildered King of Qin.
The King of Qin was an exceptionally intelligent man, and he immediately realized what was happening. "She... she couldn't be..."
"Your assessment of A Li was accurate. She has her weaknesses. When she encounters someone with a complex past, it's difficult for her to manipulate them by altering their memories, because it's very likely to create some logical inconsistencies that you'll then detect. You are an incredibly cunning person, so any attempt to modify your memories is likely to be seen through by you. Moreover, the battlefield is ever-changing, and she doesn't have the time to slowly analyze your memories."
"So what's the best way to deal with you?"
"A preemptive approach!" King of Qin responded coldly.
Yes, his own experiences are incredibly complex, and his personality is equally complex. It's actually very difficult to control someone just by altering some memories, which is why he's confident in facing A Li.
If you fall into their trap, you still have a chance to see through it, but once you find the other party first, there's no chance to retaliate.
But to my surprise, the opponent had indeed improved and actually came up with this trick.
"You're studying other people's weaknesses, but others will study yours too. King of Qin Highness, you're still too arrogant," Shen Er said with a slight smile.
The King of Qin fell silent.
He had already guessed why he was acting this way.
" A Li, how did you know so quickly that I replaced Tian Liang?"
"I saw it," a seductive voice came from the ink-wash space, tinged with amusement. "Even if you try your best to act normal, you can't avoid the instinctive movement of avoiding the eyes of the guards around you. It's a conditioned reflex. Even if it's just an instinctive avoidance, I can tell that Tian Liang has been replaced."
"I see." The King of Qin nodded upon hearing this.
It was a brilliant scheme. First, they used Tian Liang as bait to lure themselves in, and then, based on their years of experience in this area, they judged whether they had already fallen into the trap.
The most ingenious part is yet to come. She knew that altering her memories on the spot might cause problems, so she only changed one segment of her memories.
That was the memory of when I replaced Tian Liang.
In that instant, she recalled her memories before she replaced Tian Liang. The error was probably in that 0.01 second, causing her to subconsciously initiate the replacement of Tian Liang again.
At this moment, Tian Liang is himself!
"I saw Ziyue's movements when she used the power of the golem. It wasn't her casting a spell herself, but rather like someone remotely controlling another force. So I knew then that that force could be used on myself. Ziyue, you should be the same. The target of this force you're using is Tian Liang. There's only one Tian Liang in this world. The real Tian Liang is already imprisoned, so the target of the spell will naturally target you, the fake Tian Liang."
"It seems I was right, this power can backfire on you!"
Clap clap clap!
The King of Qin clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Brilliant! Brilliant! I never thought you, you silly fox, could be so shrewd!"
"There's no way around it, I've suffered too many losses, I have to grow up eventually, right?"
"Indeed," the King of Qin smiled, "But it was still a bit too careless."
"Um?"
"You shouldn't have told me the details!" The King of Qin smiled slightly, then suddenly said, "Master, aren't you going to make your move?"
