Chapter 3257: Escaping the Reverse Flow of Time!

“You—”

This time, ‘Li Yao’, who had been manipulated by the will of the earth, was truly shocked. “Acting skills! It’s actually acting skills! You’ve been releasing all your strength unscrupulously in the most wasteful way. You were waiting for the moment when I activated the super permissions and defeated you!

“It’s true that I am just a minor character who has inherited most of the acting skills of ‘Vulture Li Yao’. Just like Traveler Meng, I showed up in order to consume your super permissions. Why are you so sure that I am the ‘Bloody Demon Persona’?”

The Red Pole Star laughed while vomiting blood. “Of course, the mental devil personality exists. I was not lying at all. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to fool your scanning and detection, would I? But it’s a whole different matter if I misled you on purpose and misled you.

“My name is ‘Red Pole’, and I have a crimson birthmark on my eye. I am the leader of the Ark Foundation, and the way I talk and the way I name the magical equipment is very… clumsy. The features are in line with your target, but is it certain that I am the mental devil just because my name is ‘red’ and my eyes are red? Isn’t it hilarious?”

The face of the will of the earth was extremely gloomy. The paleness and redness just now had all turned black.

“If not you, then who?”

Its eyes suddenly bulged. “Zhang Daniu? Is Zhang Daniu the real ‘Bloody Demon Persona’?”

“You are wrong again.

Red Extremity sneered, “Why do you think that Zhang Daniu is the ‘Bloody Demon Personality’? Just because he is greedy, lustful, and sleazy? There are many other sleazy people in the world like him. Are all the sleazy criminals ‘Li Yao’ or ‘Bloody Demon’?

“There’s no need to guess randomly. Let me reveal the correct answer. I’m not the ‘Bloody Demon Personality’, neither is Zhang Daniu, nor is Mr. Zhang Jiashu, the director of the training center who likes to crawl through ventilation tubes. Also, Ms. Gray Mist, Sparda, Uncle Qi Shenhui… All the other awakeners that you’ve met are none of them! The real ‘Bloody Demon Personality’ is actually Aunt Xia, the janitor who is in charge of cleaning the toilets in District C on the Ark Island!”

“…What is it?”

“Don’t be nervous. It’s just a joke to liven up the atmosphere. However, although it is a joke, it is enough to show how absurd your misconception is!”

The Red Pole Star continued, “What a dazzling man ‘Vulture 100% Li Yao’ is. He is like a shining supernova in the dark universe. He is full of impressive charisma. He keeps a low profile. He is sleazy. He is hot-blooded. He likes to sit on the toilet and think. He likes to drill through ventilation ducts. He is good at assembling machines and magical equipment. He is good at racing and fighting. He is as tough as a cockroach. You can’t crush him, you can’t step on him, and you can’t drive him away. Right, he is also terrible at naming things. He gave the magical equipment a name that even middle school students find hard to say loudly with their heads held high.

“The information must be crystal clear for you, who has swallowed ‘Li Yao’s personality’.

“Your grasp of information has also led you to a very simple misunderstanding, which is that the possessor of ‘Li Yao’s soul fragment’ must boast similar features, and the larger the piece, the stronger the features will be.

“To put it simply, the more wretched a person is, the more they like to crawl through ventilation tubes, and the less they will name their magical equipment, the more likely they are the owners of the ‘big piece of Li Yao’s soul fragments’—including Zhang Daniu and Teacher Zhang Jiashu, the head instructor. They indeed fit the pattern, which only deepened your stereotype.

“However, please use your brain to think for a moment. Why did the ‘Bloody Demon Persona’ sneak into the Reincarnation Prison? It was to carry out infiltration and sabotage work in secret. Wasn’t it common sense to conceal your identity, your true appearance, and your habits?

“Even if the ‘Bloody Demon Persona’ has been corrupted by Li Yao’s bad habits, he is still quite sordid and likes to squat in toilets and crawl through ventilation tubes. Is he really stupid enough to show all the distinctive features? Is he stupid enough to rely on ‘Red Blood’ when the ‘Bloody Demon Persona’ is already written in ‘Forty Thousand Years of Cultivation’? Is he stupid enough to confront you face to face in a secret chamber without knowing whether or not you have played all your trump cards?

“It’s impossible. Even if he is a cockroach that likes to sneak around in the ventilation tubes, he must’ve suppressed his natural instincts with his unparalleled willpower at such a critical moment. There is no way that he would show any features that are similar to Li Yao or the mental devil.

“That’s why I said that the ‘crimson mental devil personality’ is Aunt Xia, the toilet cleaner on the Ark. If you see her, you will never, never find any features on her that remind you of Li Yao or the mental devil.

“Oh, wait. That’s not right. The toilet easily reminds people of the toilet bowl, and the toilet bowl reminds people of Li Yao. This is a flaw. So, the ‘Bloody Demon Persona’ should not be Aunt Xia. Otherwise, it would be… Uncle Li, the chef in the kitchen?”

“Enough.”

The face of the will of the earth was pale. He gnashed his teeth. “It doesn’t matter who the ‘crimson mental devil personality’ is. I’ve already sealed the command room. No matter how crazily he waves his hands in the outside world, it is impossible for him to sneak into the room and play any dirty tricks. I have plenty of time to deal with you and recover my strength when the cooldown of the super permissions is over!

“That’s true.”

The Red Pole Star smiled. His voice was already feeble because of the loss of blood and the damage to his brain, but his determination and the pleasure of defeating the will of the earth supported him to finish his sentence. “The ‘Bloody Demon Persona’ cannot really be Aunt Xia or Uncle Li, nor can it be Sparda or Ms. Grey or Zhang Daniu, because none of them can approach you when you are at your weakest.

“In other words, if I want to defeat you, the ‘Bloody Demon Persona’ must be here at this moment. No wonder you mistook me for him. In fact, cough cough cough cough cough, in fact, I’m just an actor. I’m just an ordinary ‘Li Yao’s soul fragment’. I inherited Li Yao’s superb acting skills. With the enlightenment and help of the ‘Bloody Demon Persona’, I was able to put on such an amazing performance with the legendary will of the Earth. I—I’m completely satisfied. I’m satisfied. Hahahaha. Hahahaha!”

“As for the real ‘Bloody Demon Persona’, hehe, be careful. Don’t look back. He is right behind you.

“You…”

Cold sweat was appearing on the forehead of the ‘Li Yao’ controlled by the will of the planet. “What an out-and-out scoundrel. Am I so stupid that I can’t even detect how many people are in the room? There are no secret chambers or secret tunnels here. Every inch of space is monitored by me. How can a third person be hiding inside?”

“Yes. We are indeed the only two ‘people’ who can breathe and have a heartbeat.

The Red Pole Star was laughing in great pain and satisfaction. “However, don’t forget the nature of the mental devil. Having inherited all of Professor Mo Xuan’s knowledge, it is an information life form to a certain extent. Not only can it hide in a body of flesh and blood, it can also sneak into a computer and lurk in a sea of chips, circuits, programs, and data!

“Do you see now? From the very beginning, the ‘Bloody Demon Persona’ has been lurking in the computer in the command room, pretending to be an ordinary, insignificant program and watching our marvelous performance coldly.

“Wait. Not good. Not good. Hehe. Hehehehe. Hahahahaha. You seem to have been absorbing all the data on the computer openly and unscrupulously from the very beginning, including the ‘Bloody Demon Persona’. I wonder, have you disinfected and quarantined the information that seems plain and insignificant yet?

The pupils of ‘Li Yao’, who was being controlled by the will of the earth, suddenly constricted to the minimum. His hands were shivering subconsciously.

Indeed, at the moment when the will of the earth suddenly took action, in order to stop the ‘Red Pole’, which looked like the mental devil, from activating the ‘Invincible Thunderbolt Super Brainwave Enhancement System’ on the computer in the command room, it had absorbed all the information and data inside the computer and scanned them. There did not seem to be any major problems.

Of course, such a scan was not very thorough and rigorous, because it had focused all its attention on the Red Pole and thought that it was the most important target!

But it never occurred to him that the real ‘Bloody Demon Persona’ had snuck into his body and been lurking there all the time!

“Hello, Will of Earth. I am the ‘Bloody Demon Persona’. Didn’t you always want to devour me? Now that I’ve offered myself to you, you are welcome. Please.”

The will of the earth heard a third voice that did not belong to ‘College Student Li Yao’ coming from the depths of his brain. It was the real mental devil!

“After several reincarnations, I’ve been thinking hard about how to crack your super permissions. Although I don’t have any proof, I can vaguely guess from the traces that your super permissions are related to ‘time control’.”

The voice of the mental devil continued coming from the depths of Li Yao’s brain. “Controlling time is indeed a shameless and powerful ability. Whether it is stopping time or reversing time, it seems invincible, unless I am not found by you. Once I am locked onto by you, you can kill me time and time again. It will be useless even if I defeat you a hundred times. As long as you reverse time and launch the 101st attack, there will be nothing I can do.

“I racked my brain and tried to find an answer several times, only to come up with something in this life.

“No matter how much you interfere with time, it is obvious that you will not be affected.

“If you freeze when time stops, or you forget everything when time goes back, won’t it be redundant and meaningless?

“Therefore, when time stops or resets, everything will stop and reset—but you are the only exception!

“In other words, if I can figure out a way to hide behind you or be tied to you when the super permissions are activated, I will be able to get away from the flow of time!
