Chapter 1039: Chapter 481 Eternal Brain!_4

The professionals hurriedly left the underground arcade.

They ran extremely fast, as if afraid the two people staying behind might change their minds.

“It’s just the two of us now.”

Shen Ye said.

“That’s right—according to the intel, the demons here are much stronger, while the outskirts only have small fry.” The girl said.

“Why didn’t you go to the outskirts?” Shen Ye asked.

“I’m the task leader this time. If the mission fails, I’ll face severe punishment, so I must stay here as a last resort.” The girl’s voice carried a trace of bitterness.

Shen Ye nodded slightly, not saying anything further.

But the girl pressed on: “Major General, why don’t we first discuss how to coordinate? After all, the demons here will be very strong.”

Coordinate, huh…

“I’ll coordinate with you in the fight,” Shen Ye said.

He gazed into the void, sensing something rapidly approaching.

At the same time, the Heavenly Technique activated on its own.

An inexplicable sense of connection allowed him to communicate with the infinite will within the void.

—It was the Eternal Brain.

Though it lacked self-awareness, it could respond to all the calls of sentient beings.

The prerequisite was that they had to use a suitable School of Method to communicate with it.

For instance, the virtual chip was one such method, enabling one’s consciousness to pierce through illusion and reality.

“Heavenly Technique” naturally possessed such traits as well.

Shen Ye stood there silently, linking with the Eternal Brain and beginning to perceive everything it “conveyed.”

Just then.

The void suddenly opened.

A humanoid figure covered in black, sharp horns appeared.

It was about four meters tall, exuding a torrential aura of chaotic decay, and its eyes brimmed with killing intent.

“Just the two of you? Fine, I’ll devour you first, then we’ll talk!”

The demon leisurely sized the two of them up, its voice booming.

The girl’s expression suddenly changed.

She cried out in shock:

“It’s an S-class Demon King!”

But by now, it was too late to run—

“Major General, let’s face it together!”

She shouted loudly.

But Shen Ye remained motionless, his eyes fixed on the void as if observing something.

The girl fell into an unprecedented despair.

Had her companion already fallen victim to some effect? Or was he so stricken with fear that he couldn’t even move?

There was no other choice.

Even if she were to die, she would die fighting!

She pushed off with her toes, charging straight toward the S-class Demon King.

The Demon King didn’t move.

Bang!

The girl’s punch landed squarely on the Demon King’s face.

She was about to continue her assault, but then she met the Demon King’s gaze.

Scornful, cold, merciless, and cruel.

“That’s it? The next strike will be your death!”

There wasn’t a scratch on the Demon King’s face as it uttered words dripping with mocking ridicule.

The girl’s face turned pale, her fighting spirit completely crushed, yet she gritted her teeth and struck again.

The Demon King sneered, just about to retaliate—

Clang!

Amidst the sound of a blade being unsheathed, the girl’s fist struck the Demon King again!

She struck it again!

The girl was surprised even by herself.

Clearly—

She clearly should have been dead by now, so how was she still able to hit the target?

To guard against the Demon King’s counterattack, she quickly retreated.

But from behind her came the Major General’s voice:

“No need to retreat. Keep attacking.”

The girl froze.

A vivid green Bone Blade was embedded in front of the Demon King.

The Demon King stood frozen, unable to move.

—What was going on?

The girl turned back to look at Shen Ye.

Shen Ye, however, was still staring into the depths of the void, as if probing some unfathomable secret.

Noticing the girl’s gaze, he finally turned his head slightly to glance at her.

A line of faint glowing text appeared before his eyes:

“The Rain Poison Blade of Truth Fifth Rank has imposed a suppression effect.”

“Without a doubt, the enemy has not reached the Truth Rank and can only be thoroughly suppressed, unable to move an inch.”

Shen Ye folded his arms, gave the girl a casual smile, and said encouragingly:

“Have fun.”

“—It won’t fight back.”
