Doomsday Roulette

Ye Zhongming couldn't help but admire Jannadrah's composure. Despite being spoken to like that, there was not a hint of annoyance or anger on his face.

This was the clearest rejection, and one could even say that Ye Zhongming had already turned against him. According to the habits of dealing with situations in the apocalypse, Jannadrah should either back off or engage in a fierce battle with Ye Zhongming.

But he did nothing.

"Nobody can be truly alone. One person can never achieve what many can do. A single piece on the chessboard can easily fall into encirclement, while many pieces have the qualification to fight against the opponent."

Ye Zhongming shook his head, "Either step aside, or I will kill you."

Jannadrah finally sighed and took a step back.

The surroundings immediately darkened.

The barrier that isolated the two deepened.

"Is it necessary to fight just because we can’t communicate? It would have been much better if you’d done this earlier instead of being so hypocritical." Ye Zhongming sneered, and a long spear appeared in his hand. He then pulled the trigger.

The muzzle of the Crystal Energy Magic Bullet Gun spewed forth dangerous energy.

At this distance, it was the optimal range for this purple weapon.

However, the small energy arcs, infused with lightning attributes, did not strike Jannadrah's body as expected. Instead, they hung in the air after leaving the barrel.

Ye Zhongming's gaze fell on the crystal ball that Jannadrah was holding in his right hand.

"Return-to-Burial Law Pearl?!"

At the moment Ye Zhongming saw this unusual sight, he thought of a kind of equipment.

It was also something that had been passed down from the West Asia nine-star evolver to the national district in his previous life. This powerful equipment law pearl had miraculous functions.

He didn't expect that Jannadrah had already possessed it when he was a seven-star evolver.

"Your extensive knowledge is surprising!"

A hint of suspicion appeared on Jannadrah’s face. He had not expected that this Chinese man could instantly recognize the name of his equipment.

"You talk about not being a pawn while desperately using the equipment from the roulette. Don't you think that's ridiculous?"

Ye Zhongming scoffed, but in his heart, he was contemplating how to break this barrier. He did not want to act rashly before understanding the situation.

"This is just a means to achieve a goal; these things are not important. What matters is the result," Jannadrah replied. "However, for someone as stubborn as you, nothing is important anymore."

As he spoke, the Return-to-Burial Law Pearl in Jannadrah's hand began to glow, emitting light that connected with the pearl. Initially short, the beams grew at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The energy arcs emitted by the Crystal Energy Magic Bullet Gun that floated in the air were immediately sliced apart upon contact with these beams, fragile as if cut through paper.

Although the explosive energy would slow down the growth of these beams.

"Sword Light Wheel!"

Jannadrah launched his attack.

The situation was extremely unfavorable for Ye Zhongming. By the time he appeared, this powerful West Asia evolver had already set up the barrier, clearly making it so that Ye Zhongming could only fight him inside.

But Ye Zhongming had no choice; if he had listened to Jannadrah's previous nonsense, what awaited him would likely be extortion.

Seeing his opponent's skill, Ye Zhongming realized that this was fully utilizing the characteristics of the barrier. He believed that his attacks would be useless, which was why he used this energy accumulation attack style.

Ye Zhongming pulled the trigger again, continuously firing until the energy in the Crystal Energy Magic Bullet Gun was exhausted.

During this process, he found that his movements were also restricted, as if he were stuck in a quagmire, filled with resistance everywhere.

Energy arcs formed a barrier in front of Ye Zhongming.

"Useless; someone of the same level cannot break through my Return-to-Burial Barrier. If you had listened to my advice earlier and left something that could ensure the continuity of your promises, you wouldn’t have to face this situation."
