Chapter 139 Rayze Run Away...



"Ah... aren't you going to use your armored zombies?" Hikaru smiled and said.

Rayze frowned: "It seems... you really know a lot. However, the end of those who know too much is tragic."

"Really? Show me how miserable I will be."

Rayze was in no hurry to act at this time. He knew very well how powerful Dandite's ax was.

The armored Zombies when faced with that ax were no different from thin sheets of paper. The ax could easily cut them into pieces.

"Don't talk too much, otherwise... ack!" While Rayze was speaking, he was startled when he saw a bright light suddenly appear in front of him.

In just 1/10 of a second, Rayze felt death in front of him.

However, Rayze is a main character, so he cannot die easily.

In that small moment, Rayze instantly unleashed all of his hidden power.

He moved to the side, and a streak of light passed by him, then rushed into the distance.

'What the hell is that?' Rayze felt confused and scared inside. He didn't see what Hikaru did, he only saw Hikaru swing the ax, then...

'It seems... that bastard has more secrets than I thought. In my previous life, I've never seen a skill like that.'

Rayze suddenly frowned, he began to look around because he couldn't find Hikaru anywhere.

'Is he gone?'

At this time, Rayze no longer despised Hikaru because the streak of light from earlier showed that Hikaru was not a useless person in his previous life.

Rayze looked everywhere but he still couldn't find Hikaru. Even though this place was very dark, Rayze could perfectly see.

However, he actually couldn't find Hikaru.

All these things happened very quickly. Rayze avoided the strange light and searched for Hikaru's whereabouts.

Everything happened in seconds.

Suddenly, Rayze felt scared.

That's right, he suddenly felt extremely scared, like death was standing next to him.

He had never felt so scared. Even when he was alive in his previous life, when facing those who possessed god-like power, he had never felt this level of fear.

Rayze stood still, and in just 0.5 seconds, Hikaru appeared next to him.

Hikaru swung his ax, and slashed it towards Rayze's hand.

The sound of slashing rang out....

Ptks!

Fresh blood splashed around, luckily Rayze only felt scared for 0.5 seconds, then he immediately regained consciousness.

However, his arm was injured by the ax, which left a cut so deep that even his bones were visible, and blood flowed out like a stream.

'What the hell is happening here? Why can't I feel that bastard's existence even though he's so close to me?'

'What was that feeling of fear just now? Is it his skill?'

Rayze had countless questions appearing in his mind but Hikaru definitely wouldn't answer him.

At this time, Hikaru also frowned and looked at Rayze, his face terrifyingly calm: "It seems you are not as strong as I thought. Besides creating armored Zombies, what can you do?"

Rayze was angry, since regressing, this was the first time he was humiliated and seriously injured like this.

Even when he was collecting weapons from the military arsenal, and facing dozens of gun barrels, he was not seriously injured like this.

"Hikaru.... Don't be arrogant, you're just a small piece on this giant chess board... Ack!"

While Rayze was speaking, he was startled because that streak of light appeared again and flew straight towards him at a terrible speed.

Razye tried to suppress the pain in his right hand and immediately moved aside. Although he still avoided the streak of light, the feeling of fear from before came back.

"Damn it!"

[Ah! Just now you had 3 chances to kill Rayze, why didn't you do it?]

"Kill Rayze? Do you think I can kill him?"

[Hm... of course not. But... why didn't you try to kill him instead of just injuring him?]

Hikaru smiled and said: "Because... I want to experiment."

[Experiment?]

"That's right. Do you remember when I smashed Delmor's head with a vase at the Coffee Shop?

[Of course I remember.]

"At that time, I had no intention of killing him. I just wanted to teach him a lesson. However, at that time I could have easily injured him."

"Even though the injury was not severe, it was enough to cause Delmor to lose the ability to act for a period of time."

"That's why I thought of a probability. If I can't kill the main characters, then can I injure them?

"And how much damage can I do to them?"

"Rayze is the best subject for us to test this on. As you can see, killing him will be very difficult, but wounding him will be very easy."

"As long as it is not a fatal wound, I can inflict many injuries on him."

[If he doesn't die then it's all meaningless, right?]

"Hahaha... unless he has an incredible healing ability, that wound is very difficult to heal."

"It is like a form of medieval torture. Using a knife to repeatedly cut another person's body. Those stabs are not enough to kill the person, but they will make the person feel extreme pain."

[Ah! Hikaru, I feel like you're becoming more and more like a villain.]

Hikaru: "..."

"Because you and that damn World Will forced me to be the villain."

[Hahahaha....]

"But... what do those (X) marks mean?"

Hikaru said as he pointed at Rayze's plans that were marked with an (X).

"That means I foiled Rayze's plan, right?"

[Approximately, but not exactly. Those Xs represent that the main character's plan or purpose expressed in the 'Surveillance' skill has not been fulfilled or it has failed.]

Hearing that, Hikaru nodded, feeling that this feature was also great. He can also know when the main characters carry out their plans or not.

"Wait! If that's the case, why didn't I steal luck points from Rayze?"

"I destroyed the secret research headquarters, let Laylah use the 'philosopher's stone', and even injured him. Why wasn't there any announcement?"

[Hahaha... things are not always that simple. First of all, the research headquarters and the philosopher's stone are both events that belong to Delmor.]

[Rayze, like you, is someone who came to take that event away from Delmor.]

[Even if you destroy that research headquarters along with the philosopher's stone, you will only affect Delmor, not Rayze.]

"What you mean is... if it wasn't an event or an opportunity for Rayze, then even if I destroyed or robbed them, it wouldn't have any effect on Rayze, right?"

[That's right.]

Hearing that, Hikaru sighed. Although he felt a little disappointed, he did not feel that it was a loss.

Anyway, he tested some of his speculations successfully. And of course, he was also able to see Rayze's plans and opportunities through the skill 'Surveillance'.

At this moment, Hikaru opened the system store, looked at the two items he had stored, and smiled with satisfaction.
