Chapter 714: You Win (3300 Words)

Just as Lin Lan watched the big net gradually take shape, slowly approaching the invisible breath body feasting on the light spots of the power of faith...

"It's all in vain -"

As if noticing his little move, Invisible Breath raised his head and looked at the big net, and actually shouted these words in a very human and mocking tone.

After Lin Lan heard this sentence, his heart suddenly trembled.

Didn't Unzen say that the will of the invisible breath has been destroyed? What the hell is this dismissive tone at this time?

Is this also the instinct of the invisible breath fragment?

Numerous question marks suddenly popped up in Lin Lan's mind, but no matter what, since this monster discovered his actions, he had to protect himself before Yun Xian and Nagato entered here.

So he took the reality lens in his pocket and prepared to test how much strength this terrifying beast still had.

But the next second, the invisible breath's action made him stunned for a moment.

This black dragon-headed giant beast actually pushed several light spots of the power of faith floating from a distance in front of him with its black breath.

And after these black auras and light spots of faith came into contact with him, they all integrated into his body.

All this happened in the blink of an eye, which shocked Lin Lan. She quickly checked to see if there were any changes inside her body.

"It's all in vain -"

While he was stunned, the ferocious black dragon-headed beast looked away from him and opened his mouth again to swallow the light of the power of faith, still repeating these words.

However, Lin Lan actually heard a bit of show-off pride in Invisible Breath's tone.

After he carefully examined his body, he found that apart from the normal growth of his mental power, there was indeed no change in his body.

To be precise, when these black breaths came into contact with his body, he felt a touch of boredom and an angry desire for destruction in his heart.

But that's about it.

Just like when he smashed the meta crystal for Broken Qiong and touched the meta energy, this negative emotion that came and went quickly had no impact on him at all.

Lin Lan looked up at the black beast again and found that the anger in the scarlet eyes was gradually fading as the invisible breath continued to swallow up the power of faith.

Instead, the emotion revealed was a disdain for the white net that was forming above his head.

"You...do you think of me as a younger brother of the same clan?"

Lin Lan thought carefully for a long time, and finally came up with a seemingly reasonable explanation for the behavior of invisible breath.

Perhaps from Invisible Breath's perspective, he was also imprisoned here by the girls from the Chongsakura Ship.

And Lin Lan clearly remembered that the character of Invisible Breath was very cunning, vicious, and selfish in the game plot, and it was completely impossible for him to do this kind of behavior of sharing "food" with others.

But he seriously doubted whether the Invisible Breath had any kin.

Lin Lan touched his chin and looked at this giant beast that was fully devoted to swallowing the light of the power of faith, and kept thinking in his heart:

"It stands to reason that the invisible breath in the game plot has indeed been destroyed by Unzen and Nagato."

"And the current giant beast is a brand new will that grew out of the invisible breath fragments that devoured the power of faith in the sacred tree?"

"If we fight with it later, it is very likely that the boundary space inside this sacred tree will be destroyed, but with my strength alone, I can easily purify it directly..."

"If it really understands me, maybe..."

While thinking about it, Lin Lan was still investing his mental energy into the giant net, completely forming the giant white net that filled the sky.

"Hey! Xi, let's make a bet."

After thinking for a long time, Lin Lan looked at the giant dragon-headed beast in the black space, secretly made a decision, and shouted loudly in an unconvinced tone:

"Don't you look down on my big net? If you are controlled by it and can't break free, how about you be taken out of here by me and become my follower from now on?"

After shouting these words, Lin Lan observed every move of the invisible breath with great vigilance.

He was betting that the current will of Invisible Breath was a fool's errand.

Regardless of whether the invisible breath agrees to his bet, he can rely on this big net transformed from mental power to wrap it up and delay it for enough time.

Whenever Yun Xian and Nagato discover that his body in the outside world has changed due to the massive consumption of mental power, they will definitely come here as soon as possible with a tacit understanding.

However, it would be better if he could avoid fighting here, take the invisible breath out of this space and then destroy it, so as to minimize the damage to this place.

Under his provocative gaze, the dragon-headed giant beast made of black aura stopped swallowing the light spots of the power of faith and looked at him firmly.

"This is all in vain——"

Two or three seconds later, the invisible breath responded to his bet.

Although it was still the same repeated words, it seemed as if he was imitating him, and his tone also changed to a provocation full of fighting intent.

Seeing this, Lin Lan no longer hesitated.

He raised his right hand and aimed at the body of the black giant beast and shook it hard:

"combine!"

Under the control of his mind, the giant white net covering almost the entire sky in this enchantment space suddenly came down and shrank.

Invisible Breath's huge body composed of black breath was suddenly enveloped by this giant net.

"Roar--"

The giant black beast opened its mouth wide in an instant and let out an angry and crazy roar. It seemed that it wanted to use the sharp claws and teeth of the black aura to tear this giant web apart.

But when its black body came into contact with this giant white net, a large white mist was instantly emitted.

It was as if this giant web contained scorching heat, evaporating the body of the invisible breath of black air.

"This is in vain—!"

"This is in vain——!!"

"This is in vain——!"

As this giant web began to close in, the heart-rending roars of the invisible breath fragments became more and more crazy and angry, and the struggle became more intense.

After trying to tear apart the giant net to no avail, this giant black beast began to constantly reshape its body in an attempt to break out.

Sometimes it turns into a black nine-tailed fox, sometimes it turns into a large number of humanoid silhouettes with ship-like silhouettes and fires at the giant net, or it turns directly into black mist trying to penetrate through the mesh of the giant net.

But all these efforts were in vain as the giant network controlled by Lin Lan shrank.

Lin Lan's face was also a little pale. The crazy counterattack of the invisible breath fragments was consuming a lot of his mental energy.

He even almost lost his consciousness several times and allowed this crazy black beast to break out of the net.

But seeing the white net shrinking to smaller and smaller sizes, Lin Lan had a sneer on his lips.

At this time, his mental power recovery speed was a bit strangely fast, as if he had broken through the upper limit of the original mental power recovery passive skill level.

More importantly, he also played tricks outside the game, constantly absorbing the light spots of faith power surrounding the branches from the sacred tree behind him.

The combined speed of mental power recovery between the two is like turning on a cheating device.

As long as the struggle of the invisible breath does not empty out his mental power at once, his mental power can be fully filled up in one breath.

"Hold on, Commander, Nagato and I will be with you soon!"

At this moment, Lin Lan finally heard Yun Xian's urgent voice.

Two white whirlpools appeared in front of the sacred tree trunk behind him. There was no doubt that Unzen and Nagato would arrive at his side soon.

"I'm fine, you guys..."

"This is in vain—!"

Lin Langang planned to respond to Yunxian's words so that they wouldn't have to worry too much.

But the invisible breath that was still struggling seemed to sense that its natural enemy was approaching, and it let out a roar full of fear.

The next second, the monster, which had completely transformed into a black aura form, seemed to have given up resistance and allowed the giant web that had shrunk into a spherical shape to continue to shrink.

The pair of scarlet eyes in the black aura stared intently at Lin Lan, making him feel as if he was an intelligent being who had made some kind of determination.

"puff!"

With a dull sound of destruction, Lin Lan suddenly felt that the pressure he had to suppress the invisible breath in the net suddenly disappeared.

In contrast, there was a surge of anger, bloodthirsty and crazy desire for destruction that was constantly rising in his heart.

"It's all in vain -"

The frail voice of the invisible breath rang in his ears again, but this time, Lin Lan actually felt that the voice seemed to come from his body.

He shook his head, and soon, the negative emotion dissipated as if it had never appeared before.

And when he looked at the white net again, which had shrunk to the size of a rubber ball, he was horrified to find that there was no trace of breath left in the net.

"Damn it, I won't be parasitized by this thing!"

Lin Lan was shocked. After controlling the white net to completely shrink into a point and dissipate, he quickly checked his body.

Fortunately, there were no signs of erosion in his body.

But just when he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at his brave skill bar, he suddenly froze.

Because at the top of his brave skill bar, a dynamic black skill icon appeared out of thin air that was completely different from all other brave skill icons.

In this icon surrounded by a circle of flowing black aura, a slender scarlet eye was staring at him coldly.

On this skill introduction page, which is full of ominous omens, the skill name is a question mark, the skill effect is a question mark, and everything else is basically a question mark.

In addition to the need to pay fifty light points of faith power in the usage requirements, there are only seven large characters written in black flowing aura on the final skill note:

You win, it's all in vain.

Lin Lan felt numb all over after seeing this line of writing.

The invisible breath actually chose to actively enter his body, merged with the hero's skill bar, and became one of his skills?

What a joke!

This inexplicable ending made Lin Lan immediately sit on the ground, with grief, anger and annoyance written all over his face:

"I'm fucking lying to you! Why are you so upright, do you really want to come with me?!"

He originally just wanted to stimulate the invisible breath through betting to delay time.

If the invisible breath cannot break free from this white net, he can ask Nagato and Unzen to take it out of this space and deal with it.

No matter what happens, if this white net cannot completely restrain Xi, he can also drag him until the two Chongying ship girls arrive and kill him on the spot.

From the beginning to the end, he never thought about the possibility that this crazy monster would voluntarily admit defeat.

Not to mention that this monster seemed to be afraid that he would regret it, and actually integrated it directly into his brave skill bar, becoming a special skill that he couldn't get rid of.

This is good, he might really have to take this thing out.
