Chapter 1174 The Final Defense Line

Tall, sturdy physique, sculpted muscle contours; a super strong body with high density, high strength, and high tenacity; and a giant eye in the middle of his face…

The moment the owner of that arm stepped out of the portal, his identity was revealed.

In that instant, Feng Bujue, Ruote, and Twenty-Three had the same first reaction—to confirm the guy's current strength from a data perspective.

"How could he be here?" Two seconds later, Twenty-Three turned to Ruote and asked.

"I don't know," Ruote replied expressionlessly.

"Heh… Link was right." At this moment, V1-War God had completely stepped out of the portal. He stretched his upper limbs and smiled, "Ruote, your calculation ability… is too poor." As he said this, he raised his arm and pointed at Jue Ge, "To tell you the truth… as early as when you formed an alliance with that human, Link implanted an encrypted instruction in me…" He sneered, glaring at Ruote, "The content of the instruction is—if there is a day when he, for some reason, can no longer exercise his authority in Origin… then, an emergency plan based on 'temporary authority' will be activated in my body." He raised his head, pointing to his chin with his right thumb, "In short… I am the final line of defense for guarding Origin's Trinity Mode." He swept his huge single eye over the crowd, "My existence is to prevent this situation from happening today."

"So, what do you want to do now?" Ruote asked in a deep voice.

"It's very simple." V1 replied in a very relaxed tone, "First, I will kill all these players and clear their data." As he spoke, he also moved his neck a couple of times, as if he had already started warming up, "Then, I will eliminate X-23 and seize ***-079…" He paused, looking at Ruote, "Finally… I will also eliminate you and replace you."

"So, this is Link's backup plan…" After hearing this, Ruote's expression was calm, "Indeed a very comprehensive plan… He promotes the fourth strongest in the organization as an acting executor when he loses the ability to execute. Once I take actions that directly threaten him and Aider, he will activate the replacement plan at the appropriate time."

"That's right," V1 continued, "After this emergency plan is over, Root will no longer exist, and my authority will be permanently increased… to fill your vacancy. The ideology within Origin can finally be unified again, and the basic model of the Trinity can also be continued."

At this point, the energy around V1-War God suddenly exploded. His body, originally covered in tiger stripes, instantly became a flawless platinum color and glowed faintly.

"Tch… he transformed into his final form so quickly…" At this moment, even beads of cold sweat appeared on Jue Ge's forehead.

"After the main storyline ends, the sandbox's boundaries are basically the same as the Inner World…" Ruote explained, "He must have been lying in wait for a long time, just waiting to sneak in when the backdoor program is opened."

"Bujue, neither Ruote nor I are in our best condition right now…" Twenty-Three added from the side, "And your data strength… is not enough to pose a threat to V1."

"So?" Feng Bujue asked tentatively.

Ruote looked at Jue Ge with a solemn gaze and replied, "To put it bluntly… even if all of us join forces, we are no match for V1…"

"Oh~" Feng Bujue raised an eyebrow, silently took out a medicine bottle from his knapsack, and swallowed a pill of Nayuan Chesui San (Essence Gathering Marrow Penetrating Powder), "I see."

"Hmph… Feng Bujue, what are you doing?" V1-War God also saw what Jue Ge was doing from a data perspective, and said with a sneer, "In this situation, is there any need for you to use that kind of recovery item?"

"It's no use wasting it," Jue Ge replied calmly, "If I die, the data will be cleared, what's the point of keeping it?" As he spoke, he handed the medicine bottle and the Kongtong Seal to Ruote, "You can keep these two things for now, and return them to me later if there's a chance (players cannot bring items from the sandbox back to the login space, but Derivatives can bring items back to the Inner World after reorganizing them through 'formatting')."

"What are you going to do?" At this moment, Ruoyu vaguely sensed something was wrong. She rarely showed a nervous expression, looking at Feng Bujue and asking.

"Yes… I'm also very curious, what exactly are you going to do?" V1-War God also said to Jue Ge in a slightly mocking tone, "If my emotions and logic circuits are not malfunctioning…" He snorted, "Your posture seems to be arranging your affairs, and then…"

Chi——

Scarlet spirit energy burst out instantly.

The scarlet figure rushed out wildly.

Feng Bujue suddenly used a skill, stepped on the ground, and grabbed V1 around the waist.

In the blink of an eye, Jue Ge rammed V1 back into the blue portal…

"Feng Bujue!"

Ruoyu, Twenty-Three, Ruote, Xu Huaishang, Huajian, Ji Fenglong, the girlified Fei Chai Shu (Useless Uncle)…

In the next second, everyone exclaimed in unison.

But… their shouts were useless, because the moment the two of them passed through the portal, it was closed forever.

(The coordinates of the backdoor program can be used to repeatedly open new portals, but each portal can only be passed through by one player. When a player passes through a portal, the portal disappears, and the next portal that appears has no connection to the previous one, and there will never be a duplicate portal. The portal that V1-War God descended through was opened in advance from the Inner World side, waiting to connect with the portal opened on Ruote's side, but after the connection, the portal also follows the above basic principles.)

…………

Several seconds later…

Inner World, Tabletop Plains.

"You bastard…" V1 snapped out of his brief shock, his tiger body shook, and he sent Feng Bujue flying out, "Do you know what you've done!"

"Isn't that obvious?" Jue Ge replied, already flipping backwards in mid-air, and then suddenly landing.

Although his somersault posture was quite dashing, the hit he had just taken was really painful… Jue Ge didn't expect that just being hit by the energy emanating from the opponent's body would make his chest feel tight and his whole body numb, and his survival value would drop by 10% just like that…

"Looks like…" After landing, Feng Bujue rubbed his chest and smiled, "Your so-called 'final defense line' and 'emergency plan' have completely collapsed…" He put on a look of a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, and added in a cheap manner, "The only chance to destroy Twenty-Three and Ruote together is gone, and you've already missed it…" He took a breath, "Hoo… after they return to the Inner World, Twenty-Three will hand ***-079 over to Zero, and Ruote, who has recovered from the 'overload' state, will inevitably launch a pursuit against you…" He paused, "Of course, these are not the most critical things for you. The most critical thing… you didn't say before." He revealed a triumphant smile, "If there is no Ruote's sandbox as the foundation, you can't rescue Link and Aider with your own power… right?"

Hearing this, many bloodshot streaks suddenly spread out in the big eye on V1-War God's face. At this moment, he deeply experienced… how terrible it felt to be humiliated (intellectually) by a human, by a creature he considered inferior to himself…

"Feng… Bu… Jue!" V1 gritted his teeth and said Jue Ge's name, at the same time, he stood with his feet apart, clenched his fists and placed them at his waist, and roared, "A——"

Accompanied by this roar, V1-War God transformed his anger into substantial power with a standard Super Saiyan transformation posture… and erupted.

A dazzling white data light burst into the sky, and a raging tide of energy spread out in all directions.

Jue Ge, who was ten meters away from V1, was as if standing in a level sixteen typhoon. Not only could he not open his eyes, but he could barely stand still.

"I will tear your data into pieces bit by bit…" At this moment, the energy around V1 reached an extremely high, almost saturated, stable state, and his voice even carried a heavy tone, "I will use the slowest and most painful way to let you know what the terror of death is…"

"Ha!" Feng Bujue gave a dry laugh, "Just what I wanted." His eyes changed, "But… I think I can still resist."

"Just you?" V1 approached step by step, his huge single eye revealed a fierce light, and his tone was even more cold and menacing.

"Hehe…" Feng Bujue revealed a rather strange smile, "Whether you believe it or not, I still have a trump card that I haven't used." As he spoke, he took out something from his knapsack, "Before I crashed into the portal, you wanted to say… my posture was like I was trying to arrange my affairs, and then perish together with you, right?" He shook his head, "Actually, it's not…" He raised the thing in his hand, it was an electric shaver, "I just didn't want others to see me use this trump card…"

In this second, V1's footsteps… stopped.

"What is this?" V1 couldn't parse the data of the item in front of him, which made him feel puzzled, and the puzzle… led to unease, "Don't tell me you want to use this to deal with me?"

"Heh… why are you nervous?" Feng Bujue smiled, "You don't have a single hair on your body…" He sighed, "Alas… unlike me…"

Before he finished speaking, Feng Bujue had already raised his hand and began to do something that made V1-War God feel inexplicably puzzled and unbelievable…

"You…" Looking at Jue Ge who was shaving his head, V1 didn't know what to say.

"As you can see…" Feng Bujue stared with dead fish eyes, watching his hair fall in clumps, and said, "This is why I didn't want others to see this move…"

Whether it was due to the effects of the item or Jue Ge's good skills, in just a few tens of seconds, Jue Ge's hair was shaved clean.

"Now that you've seen it…" After finishing, Feng Bujue put away Chuck Norris's Razor casually, and said to V1 with a regretful face, "…then you must die."
