Chapter 333: Chapter 154 I’ve Got You Pegged_2

"So he said, there was no hope left... It was from that moment on that he was convinced he would definitely die, and thus he sought breakthroughs,"

As he spoke, he blasted robots away amidst a fierce battle.

Even though the Activated Exoskeleton couldn’t help him defeat the robots, it allowed him to entangle with the robots for a long time, even to the extent of throwing this severely damaged robot away.

"Lin An! Lin An!"

"Why didn’t you tell me? Why did you conspire with them to deceive me?"

Ling Sha’s head had turned completely red, this time it was thoroughly heated.

Lin An looked down at Ling Sha’s head, "Sis, this is the only point outside the prize pool, a point that can win the entire game."

"It’s also the only point that supports, at this moment, the birth of a lone wolf."

"That’s 60 points, sis, do you really not care at all? Are you really willing to let Tai Sui win it all?"

Ling Sha angrily said, "I didn’t let him win it all. He wanted us to hand over all the points, but I considered your need and didn’t agree. That’s why he settled for the next best thing, putting the points into the prize pool."

Lin An said coldly, "But because of that one point you have, Tai Sui essentially gave all the points to you."

"Whoever kills you gets those 60 points."

"Why should I put all my hope in the next round? What if I get negative points next round?"

The situation is simple—if all three of them enter the next round, whoever gets the points wins it all. Whoever scores zero has nothing, and whoever goes into the negative must die.

It’s left to fate, depending on how the organizers distribute the points.

If Tai Sui scores negative, he will fight 1v2, fiercely and wildly. With Tai Sui’s performances, he is likely to take down one, and who else would it be if not Lin An?

If Ling Sha goes into the negative, then the two of them would fight against Tai Sui alone, fiercely and wildly. With Tai Sui’s performances, he is still likely to desperately take one down.

As for Lin An being negative, well, that goes without saying. Who could he possibly defeat?

This is why he helped Tai Sui hide that one point. With this point, he doesn’t have to rely on fate next round but can take control in this one.

Of course, his first target is still Tai Sui, and he doesn’t want to betray Ling Sha unless absolutely necessary.

So, this is also why he does not wish to advance peacefully to the next round at any cost—he must dispose of Tai Sui now, using him as a tool for allocation or deduction of points.

Ling Sha disagreed, leaving him no choice but to act on his own.

But he never expected, an accident occurred.

During a sneak attack, Tai Sui just died, dying instantly on the spot.

This was disastrous, not just about the 60 points anymore, but a matter of life and death.

Now only he and Ling Sha were left; no matter who scores negative next round, it would be Lin An who dies!

So, with the fall of Tai Sui, the situation turned extreme.

He had to immediately attack Ling Sha as well.

"Yes... with those 60 points, there would be no need to think about pairing anymore, no matter how many points were deducted afterward,"

Ling Sha grimly smiled, thinking if it was just to stay alive, she could understand.

But Lin An did not remind her about the one point on her, undoubtedly, he also coveted those 60 points.

"If you had told me earlier, I would have done my best to help you get the points."

"A mere 600,000, I don’t care about it at all..."

Hearing this, Lin An became even angrier, "Of course you don’t care!"

"Do you even understand what 600,000 redemption tickets mean?"

"Your parents are direct descendants of the City Lord, with Elephant Kings existing. The moment you step into Tiger Level, you enter the Dragon Guards directly, lacking nothing."

"What about me? Just a rural force, and still from a secondary house... Struggling for life, yet all resources are leaned towards the main house."

"They flatter me by calling me the first master of the branch house, but without that respect, I’m just a laborer."

"And you dare say you don’t care about 600,000? The Biological Power module from SR, that’s only 400,000 and even that I couldn’t afford after saving for a long time."

"To become stronger, I’ve endured beatings for two years just to activate the Exoskeleton Armor."

"You just couldn’t understand the pain of providing for a family, sis!"

His words were filled with resentment, leaving Ling Sha speechless.

What more was there to say at this point?

Ling Sha, convinced she would definitely die, focused intently, solely wishing to survive.

But she had nothing left, save for her head, and even speaking required control over her muscles.

What could a head do alone? Absolutely no way to contend against a powerful True Tiger.

Unless she activates the Biological Field!

"Do you think I have it easy? The Dragon Guards don’t keep freeloaders either. Nothing lacking comes with the premise of constantly facing life and death, pursuing strength."

"If only one person is to survive, it must be me!"

Ling Sha, left with only her head, was undergoing a transformation even now.

Her cells were surging, transforming, recombining.

Lin An’s face drastically changed upon seeing this, realizing she was stepping into Elephant Level.

A single head could actually achieve a breakthrough, although, naturally, it would be very slow.

Transformations such as from wolf to tiger, tiger to elephant, elephant to dragon... the more damaged the body, the slower the transformation speed.

But how can one break through the self without experiencing the despair of certain death?

The higher the strength, the stronger the vitality, and the harder it is to die. The body often has to be extremely damaged to feel despair.

So the closer to death, the better to break through, and also the more challenging it is to break through.

This creates a vicious cycle, resulting in very few people being able to break through in combat and survive.

Either someone is a protector, or it’s like the dark knight, tasting despair with no one to care.

Otherwise, the time of breakthrough is often also the time of death.

"Go in peace! Sister! Stop struggling!"

At this moment, Lin An certainly wouldn’t let Ling Sha break through peacefully; he had already raised his electric sword and, after calling her sister one last time, he slashed down without hesitation.

"Clang!"

However, at this critical moment between life and death, a shiny white blade came slashing horizontally, blocking his sword.

"What!" Lin An stared wide-eyed.

Someone had emerged out of nowhere—it was Tai Sui, Gao Xin.

"You resurrected?" Lin An looked at Gao Xin in shock.

At that moment, Gao Xin was skinny as a rake, his face covered in blood, holding a white-hot Demon Blade, standing in front of Ling Sha’s head.

"Who said that not detecting vital signs means death?"

Gao Xin spoke indifferently, blood all over his forehead, but the blood seam at the left side of his brain had inexplicably healed at some point.

He certainly hadn’t died. Even when he was like a glass man, with his genes collapsing, he had endured three days and nights at the burial pits.

Now at True Tiger Level, even though his head had been pierced, as long as it wasn’t completely destroyed, making him lose consciousness immediately, he could still cling to life.

And his vitality and healing abilities were, Needles to say, formidable; just lying there resting for a moment had improved his condition.

As for the vital signs, he had entered a state of suspended animation.

He convinced his body that he was dead, with only his brain cells still active; this feigned death tactic was his last resort.

Unless someone deeply examined his brain, anyone who saw him would think he was dead.

"Just feigned death, everyone can do it, it’s quite simple," Gao Xin smiled.

Originally, these two were closely linked, conspiring against him, and beyond his feigned death trick causing him to withdraw from the struggle, these two had started fighting each other.

"You actually saved me..." Ling Sha was both thrilled and shocked.

Regardless of how Gao Xin deceived everyone, he hadn’t died, and that meant there was a turn of events.

With such a survival tactic, Gao Xin could completely wait for Lin An to kill Ling Sha, then sneak attack Lin An, becoming a lone wolf.

Gao Xin said, "Had you not stepped into Elephant Level, I would have let it be, but since you have, we can go for the bonus..."

Good heavens, he was still thinking about getting the bonus at this time!

"You’re still thinking about the bonus? You think you can kill me?" Lin An burst out in anger.

At that moment, his three-meter-tall body charged at Gao Xin with a thunderous impact.

Gao Xin’s Demon Blade, with a bizarre sliding tackle, evaded the attack.

Even making use of the momentum to perform a scoop turn, he kicked Ling Sha’s head back onto her body.

"Reconnect! Step into Elephant Level quickly!" Gao Xin shouted.

Setting aside the bonus, he was too weak right now; facing Lin An alone might not secure a win.

But if he could save Ling Sha, who was undergoing a breakthrough, it might just suffice to hold Lin An off and secure a victory.

"You really think you have me cornered?" Lin An’s attacks were furious, taking one was lethal for Gao Xin.

Yet, once again, Gao Xin agilely dodged, his reflexes also of True Tiger level, no worse than Lin An’s.

Moreover, his white-hot Demon Blade was extremely sharp, slicing through Lin An’s large Exoskeleton Armor like a hot knife through butter.

Gao Xin saw Ling Sha reconnect her head, gave her another kick, sending her far away.

He then circled around Lin An, combining Demon Blade whirl cuts with sliding tackles, dancing on the brink of death like a dammed fool.

Robots also joined the fray at this time, suddenly turning it into a three-way battle.

Gao Xin was maneuvering between the massive Lin An and the robots, as if dangling his life at his waist, yet stubbornly refusing to die.

"Exactly, I have you figured out!" Gao Xin declared unequivocally.
