Chapter 959: 957: Performance

It has been exactly one hour since Yi Chen dragged [Disaster] into the Dead Sea,

The confrontation between such powerful beings shouldn’t last too long, and both Yi Chen and Disaster in his murderer form are deadly types, which would further shorten the time of engagement. It shouldn’t take this long.

Reagan has reappeared in the Sky Space,

and as soon as he landed, Lene, who was hiding in a resident’s house, jumped over, her face full of worry.

"Why hasn’t Mr. Yi come out yet..."

Reagan squatted on the ground, touching the land eroded by death, his expression grave, "I cannot detect the situation in the Dead Sea, but something is indeed amiss.

Overall, Disaster must be stronger than Yi Chen.

The longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable it is for Yi Chen. It’s even possible that he has already been killed, just not entirely dead yet. Disaster is repeatedly slaughtering him to completely finish him."

Hearing Reagan’s terrifying analysis, Lene was so shocked she covered her mouth, feeling tears well up.

His voice also came through, almost echoing Reagan’s speculation.

"Yi Chen is not dead, but he’s probably close... He’s definitely not the kind to waste time. It’s only possible he’s triggered some state in Disaster and is dying slowly.

Since he’s gone to the Dead Sea, there’s no way we can help.

Come with me! Let’s seek rescue in the adjacent world."

Though Lorrian’s approach seemed somewhat cold, it was also the best solution given the objective circumstances.

Reagan was also inclined to retreat first, or rather to keep his girlfriend in a safe place.

"No... I’m not leaving!" Lene immediately denied, still remembering her agreement with William to stay here and stick with Mr. Yi, "Isn’t Mr. Yi your companion? How can you abandon him so easily..."

Lorrian responded coldly, "That is the reality. If Pulaid’s Great Emperor-led team encountered Disaster, they would also abandon their teammates.

Weaklings must forsake some things to survive."

Lene’s gaze was unusually steadfast at this moment. She looked up at the sky, "You’re a Doctor, right?"

"Yes."

"Try to save Mr. Yi once. If it doesn’t work, you can leave after that, is that okay?"

"Save? How? The Dead Sea Yi Chen reached is a forbidden zone for the living. Even if we could reach that sea area, we couldn’t find his position without his guidance." ŖἈΝ𝘰฿ÊS̩

But Lene shook her head, giving a stunning answer, "No... Just act as my midwife.

According to what you said, if Mr. Yi is really in danger and may fall into a state of complete death and confused consciousness, then I can bring him back here."

"Midwife? Bring Yi Chen back here? You aren’t going to..."

Lorrian suddenly became interested, descending directly amidst the moonlight to face the newly joined sheep-girl in the team.

Although Lene was somewhat scared, her hooves were firmly planted in the ground without retreating a bit.

After a minute of staring, Lorrian confirmed that this sheep-girl was not lying, "How are you going to do it? To create, the most basic DNA should be there, right?"

"Yes... Previously, while assisting with arm fertility, I collected mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from Mr. Yi’s bone marrow."

"Oh? Arm fertility, no wonder Mr. Yi’s right arm looks so ’new’.

Then we’ll choose the previous clinic, and I’ll act as your midwife... Let’s see if you can ’birth’ Mr. Yi out.

Interesting, no wonder you replaced Ms. Jin in the team."

...

Inside the convenience store

When Yi Chen realized he had never convened with teammates or crossed worlds, and had been in the scene constructed by the film crew from beginning to end,

he did not panic; instead, a slight smile appeared on his lips.

I didn’t expect the influence of [Disaster] to be so strong. Although I changed the script, I’m essentially acting in this film and interacting with the lead murderer.

The longer the interaction time, the deeper I get involved, and the more intense the influence, even affecting my basic perception.

From the very beginning, I was wrong, the problem was never how to defeat or kill the murderer, but how to destroy the entire invisible crew or escape the shooting scene.

Or... there’s an even more effective way.

Indeed, such a performance venue is really suitable for William.

Yi Chen showed no surprise upon discovering the background wall and filming site, pretending that everything was normal and trying to think like William.

This time he wasn’t supposed to carry out those killing tasks he did in life, he just needed to wait for the opportunity and decisively slay.

But he needed to analyze the situation with existing conditions and find the crew’s loopholes.

This predicament must be tackled with William’s thinking mode,

while thinking, Yi Chen’s black mind, submerged in the ocean, showed some signs of transforming into Madness Brain, with his thinking efficiency and scope changing.

Looking at the peers in the convenience store disguised with human skin masks, Yi Chen suddenly thought of a quality answer.

"How about changing the script while keeping the movie logic smooth? Since there’s no way to temporarily find a way to escape or disrupt the crew, why not try to alter the current situation.

Give it a try; maybe it can really break the current situation. The acting feels a bit disgusting, inevitably reminding me of that guy."

Seizing the window before the murderer arrives, as the convenience store plot just begins, Yi Chen gritted his teeth and mimicked William’s acting.

He looked at the shelf in the corner holding the horror masks, then at the payphone not far away, sketching a perfect plot performance in his mind.

Yi Chen first circled the convenience store, sneakily taking several bags of tomato juice in the surveillance blind spot.

Then he walked to the phone with his head lowered, grabbing it with a face full of hatred and smashing it to the ground.

"Those guys won’t come to save us... otherwise, they would have called by now! We’ve been completely abandoned by those hypocritical Gods; the only waiting for us is death.

Rather than being killed by such a guy, self-termination is better. Those false Gods, I really want to kill them!"

Yi Chen’s pupils turned vacant, a rigid smile cracking across his face as he looked at his team, seemingly bidding a final farewell, or wanting them to join him.

SWISH!

With the Black Blade in hand slicing through his real physical throat,

while using the ’Breathing Skill’ to squeeze the implanted tomato juice, achieving a ’blood spurt’ effect as a dead person.

A mass of ’blood’ spurted from the slit throat, his whole body succumbed to despair and fell backward.

BANG!

The falling body just knocked down that row of shelves with horror masks, letting a mask with stitch marks and stained with blood fall right onto Yi Chen’s face.

The Breathing Skill continued causing trouble, using airflow to interfere with the convenience store’s bulb contacts.

ZZZZZ! Creating a flickering effect due to unstable voltage.

In the flickering light, Yi Chen’s body, which should have died, slightly twitched, the mask that fell on his face began to merge with his skin.

PAT!

Suddenly, the light bulb exploded, plunging the convenience store into darkness.

When the store clerk quickly turned on the backup lights, Yi Chen’s body in the corner was gone.

The clerk also noticed that the three customers in the convenience store were looking at him in horror, or rather, at something behind him.

He also realized something seemed to be standing behind him,

As he slowly turned his head,

DRIP DRIP~ Scarlet tomato juice had already dripped onto his shoulder, the young man with a slit neck stood behind him, his cold body closely pressing against him,

his face gruesomely wearing the face-mask that had dropped from the collapsed shelf.
