As for Zen In Scary Dream, after spitting out a mouthful of blood, he felt dizzy, and his chest was pressed. His body was blown away, dangling on a tree.

When he could breathe again, he tried to press down his pain, looking at the place he had been previously. He then saw dozens of meters away from him, a man in a long purple coat holding something like a metal bat, constantly pounding on another man, who was wearing the newbie costume.

Zen In Scary Dream was dumbstruck as he his jaw almost dropped to the ground. He clumsily took out a bottle of wine and poured it into his mouth which was still open, in an attempt to calm down.

"Hmm Hitting the tree gives me hallucination or I'm drunk already"

On the other side, in the shrine yard.

K3's Air Shield vanished, and for the time being, he couldn't gather enough strength to make another fatal strike. However, this style of Feng Bujue's lunatic attack hardly killed the Derivative. Regarding data, this type of attack could wear out 1% of blood. Moreover, not any hit from him could cause that loss.

It was embarrassing to say if they maintained the fight this way, it would affect K3's recovery speed. If he wanted to recover his blood and stamina, he had to find a way to get rid of Feng Bujue's chasing and beating. At least he had to make 10 seconds of having no physical contact with the other.

Currently, Feng Bujue's Survival Value could only maintain his Body - Spirit Congregation Technique for roughly 20 seconds more. Just one hit of K3 and it was 80% that Feng Bujue's items would be broken again. Thus, he had to chase after the other like crazy.

However, K3 wouldn't be hit forever. Even if he didn't have the shield, he still had other attributes. His strength and speed were equal to when Feng Bujue was using his Body-Spirit Congregation Technique. Would he lose because of a pipe wrench? Could it be so!

"Ahhh!" K3 raised his right arm to parry the wrench. It seemed he broke his bones this time, but he didn't bother with that as he immediately punched his left fist in an attempt to push Feng Bujue backward.

Unexpectedly, Feng Bujue flexed his legs and tilted his body to dodge this attack. "Thanks to you, now my fighting skill has been progressed a bit," he said then rose the wrench hitting hard on K3's knee.

K3 got hurt, couldn't balance his body, and kneeled down on one knee. "You after allHow could you with your data, you can't exist for that long under my attack! This is simply absolutely ridiculous!"

Feng Bujue looked down at the opponent. "This is the Protagonist's Halo."

"What the heck is that!" K3 shouted as he swept his leg over.

Feng Bujue jumped, successfully avoiding the trip.

"What the so-called Protagonist's Halo is" he conveniently punched. "First punch - Shocking."

K3 got hit on his nose; his head jolted backward, and his whole body fell altogether.

"Second punch - Annihilating!" Feng Bujue was making use of the very last seconds he could use the Body-Spirit Congregation Technique, which was also the time K3 couldn't launch his shield to seize the chance to attack the other.

As K3 hadn't fallen down yet, Feng Bujue had hit him by the stomach. K3 then curled his body like a shrimp.

"Third punch - Exterminating!" Feng Bujue felt satisfied, giving all three lines (1). One second before the Body-Spirit Congregation Technique dissolved, he delivered the last punch, which was 100% to vent out his anger to K3's face.

Fear revisited K3. He suddenly recognized that his blood was constantly reducing and it was at the dangerous level now. Moreover, he didn't have the air shield anymore. In case the opponent used a powerful attack hitting his fatal point, it would have the same meaning with death. The physical form he had been materialized with would immediately turn into data fragments without autonomy. After the scenario was over, the system would eradicate him completely.

A gold light flashed. Indeed, Feng Bujue had made the move the other was afraid of the most. In his hand now was the last card he got, aiming for K3's throat.

"There's only one truth." Feng Bujue raised his arm. "You're dead."

"I will be at this place" K3's eyes were empty and gloomy. Besides disbelief, there were anger, fear and some kind of sadness in his eyes. He understood that the fate, in which he had to perish, had come eventually

"Just kidding!" The card in Feng Bujue's halted at the other's throat. He laughed out loud. "Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!" He then retrieved both the card and the wrench and took several steps backward. "Scared now?"

K3's forehead was covered with blood which rolled into his eyes. But he still opened his eyes wide in shock, looking at Feng Bujue. Momentarily, he didn't expect to get up from the ground.

"Can we talk with civilized language now?" asked Feng Bujue.

K3 suspiciously looked at the other and slowly got on his feet.

Feng Bujue backed off several steps. "I say if you still want to fight"

"No You won," replied K3.

In fact, the second half of Feng Bujue's line was 'if you still want to fight, I can only retreat'

"If you want to talk about the Derivatives, I can tell" When K3 was speaking these last words, his speed was slowing down. Then, it seemed he had lost his ability to talk. His mouth was still moving, but it made no sound.

A space crack appeared behind K3 silently. From that crack, a liquid that looked like mercury oozed out, spreading and lingering on K3's body. It then spread from his back to shoulder, waist and then legs Feng Bujue could see clearly that there was something that looked like bird feather on the edge of that mercury-like liquid Not clear what it was.

Feng Bujue didn't know what was going on. Was that a special skill of the Derivatives? But with his current tone and manners, it didn't look like he was about to fight again.

The mercury covered K3 entirely. Without any movement or resistance, his body was then compressed into a line of data and dragged along with that flow of mercury which disappeared into the space crack.

"That's how it happened." The light in K2's eye faded away. "You could directly bring me from the scenario to here?"

X2 dropped her hands and regarded him coldly. "This is a special situation." The little girl glared at K2 seriously. "First, although that scenario hasn't been finished yet, you are qualified to enter the Other World. Second, I need to prevent you from disclosing our information to humans."

"Oh?" K2 asked after having heard that. "Will the Level 2 Derivatives watch over the Level 3 and 4 all the time?"

"Of course not," answered X2. "Tracking down is difficult already, let alone forcing to bring you out of there" The little girl paused for a while. "What we are watching over isn't you guys. You just happened to be there at the same time"
