Chapter 1692 The Chosen One! Shi Ba Shi?
"This aura... it's so familiar..."
Xu Xiao, who was suspended in mid-air, narrowed his eyes and a look of surprise and doubt appeared on his face.
Like everyone else on the deck, she felt Shi Ba Shi's ever-increasing aura and oppressive presence.
But as a chosen one, she also sensed a familiar aura that others couldn't detect.
That's the aura of one of our own!
"I've smelled a similar scent on Madam Octopus and Li Luo... Shi Bashi, he... he's the Chosen One!?"
The moment the thought crossed his mind, Xu Xiao's pupils shrank to pinpoints!
Under her gaze, a violent shockwave suddenly erupted from Shi Ba Shi's body, knocking Nikita, who had transformed into a brown bear, to the ground.
The Lin family members watching from the deck were also thrown about, unable to stand properly!
The situation reversed instantly!
Shi Bashi wiped his face, and when he put his hand down, his expression was no longer one of frustration.
The innate confusion and helplessness in their eyes disappeared.
Instead, there is a chilling malice and resentment.
He did not speak.
He merely shifted his gaze from the fallen Nikita, coldly surveyed his surroundings, and finally looked at Xu Xiao, who was still suspended in mid-air.
A silent declaration of war!
The moment Shi Bashi's gaze fell upon him, Xu Xiao felt the suffocating pressure emanating from the Chosen One!
This forced her to respond by also projecting her own aura in response.
An invisible confrontation has begun!
As an advanced version of the Chosen Ones, the Chosen Ones are top-tier beings whose overall strength and status are significantly higher than ordinary players, and they naturally engage in battles in a variety of ways.
Xu Xiao could completely unleash his power, just like Madam Octopus single-handedly withstood the outbreak of the demonic tide, manifesting it as a physical, large-scale attack that could sweep away thousands of troops.
Alternatively, like when Mo Xing fought Huan Zi Yao Ji, one could concentrate all their power into small-scale attacks with each move.
And now, the clash of momentum between the Chosen Ones is just one of the many forms of combat among the Chosen Ones.
However, Shi Ba Shi is now on the offensive, and his attack covers the entire black-sailed ship.
Xu Xiao, on the defensive side, cannot only look after himself, but also has to find ways to protect the other players on the ship.
All these factors combined quickly created a disadvantage for women.
It was clear that they couldn't hold on any longer and were about to give up.
At the critical moment, a dazzling golden light suddenly shone from the other end of the black-sailed ship!
A desolate dragon roar suddenly resounded, forcefully intervening in the clash of auras between the two chosen ones and reversing Xu Xiao's downward trend!
Shi Bashi, who had been standing tall and straight, suddenly seemed to be carrying a heavy burden, and his back hunched over visibly.
Xu Xiao was surprised and glanced sideways in the direction where the golden light was shining.
The aid came from Elisa.
To be precise, it came from the little golden dragon that was perched on the catgirl's shoulders and neck.
The Time Dragon, nicknamed the Rascal Snake, has now opened its eyelids, which had been closed for so long. Its pupils reveal endless majesty, its jaws are wide open, and its whiskers and hair are standing on end!
Unlike Xu Xiao's gentle, protective aura,
The oppressive aura He exuded was a genuine offensive posture!
"You little thief, I didn't even bother looking for you, but you've come to my doorstep on your own?"
"Are you looking for death?!"
Faced with the Time Dragon's questioning, Shi Bashi sneered and spoke coldly in a mocking tone completely different from his usual one:
"I've already returned the item to you. What more do you want?"
"Are you going to kill me and then attack the pillar?"
"Shouldn't it be more important to restore the true god's status first?"
The dragon's angry roar erupted once more!
The three-way standoff has been taken over by the Time Dragon, and Xu Xiao's protective forces have been completely squeezed into a corner.
Shi Bashi was also completely suppressed.
He knelt on both knees and desperately braced himself with his hands on the deck to keep his balance and prevent himself from collapsing on the ground like a rag doll.
Even in such a disheveled state, the smile on his face remained undiminished.
Instead, they became even more rampant!
"Such intense anger..."
"It seems you still have a long way to go before reaching the level of a true god. You probably won't be able to kill me right away... Hehehe..."
A sickly laugh rolled out from Shi Bashi's throat.
"You can't hold onto what isn't yours!" The Dragon of Time's eyes softened slightly, his tone carrying a clear warning.
You are destined to lose!
"Nothing is predetermined!" Shi Bashi suddenly looked up, his bloodshot eyes filled with ruthlessness:
"I can win if I want to!"
"So what if we can't hold onto it? As long as it has served its purpose beforehand, isn't that enough? As long as it achieves its goal, isn't that sufficient?"
"Just like... just like your authority over time!"
"I've already used it to my advantage, otherwise why would I return it to you? Hahaha..."
The Time Dragon spewed white steam from its mouth, seemingly enraged to the extreme.
But in the end, He calmed down and nestled back onto Elisa's shoulder.
He did not launch any further attack, but simply said in a calm voice:
"As a thief, your character has indeed exceeded my expectations."
"But ascending to the throne of God is not as simple as you imagine."
"I can see that." Shi Bashi's tone was even more disdainful.
"If ascending to the throne were easy, why would you, having retraced your steps, be living under someone else's roof and being controlled at every turn?"
"Don't even think about provoking me again." The Time Dragon shook its head, completely calming down.
"I'm not stupid. Your scheme won't work once it's been exposed."
"You go your way, I'll go mine, and we'll keep to ourselves."
"There's no point in messing with these people on the ship. I advise you not to be foolish."
"Of course," Shi Ba Shi replied quickly, a smile in his voice.
"I'm just trying to give 'myself' a chance to speak properly."
As soon as he finished speaking, the stone-skinned man kneeling on the ground immediately withdrew all the aura emanating from his body.
The situation was sudden, catching the Time Dragon somewhat off guard.
He quickly reined in his power to avoid accidentally crushing Shi Bashi to death.
In that case, we would have truly fallen into their trap!
Xu Xiao, who was always on guard, didn't encounter this problem.
Seeing that the Time Dragon and Shi Bashi had finished their exchange and the clash of their auras had come to an end, their side gradually lowered their guard.
The onlookers' gazes darted back and forth between Shi Bashi, the Dragon of Time, and Xu Xiao, their shock tinged with an unyielding bewilderment.
It's no wonder they behaved this way.
Because after Shi Bashi said, "I've returned the things to you, what more do you want?" his communication with the Time Dragon became obscure and difficult to understand.
Someone with a bit of knowledge like Lin Cheng could barely recognize that both sides were using ancient secret scripts developed through Earth's secret research.
The other bystanders were completely dumbfounded!
With the data panel acting as a powerful 'real-time translator,' why are there still instances where I can't understand what's being said?
Encrypted communication, right?
