Chapter 331 Breakthrough 2
The energy ball in the chest has taken shape.
Electric arcs danced on the surface of the energy ball.
"Mind, mind, Ace said to use the mind."
"I'm already using my mind to guide the direction of the energy ball."
However, the square was filled with so many rebels that even Zhang Hao, with his excellent eyesight, could not help but feel dizzy.
"That's right! The intention that Ace mentioned should also include feeling the entire surroundings!"
Zhang Hao suddenly realized!
He slowly closed his eyes, and his thoughts spread like a tide, surging forward.
The position of each robot was clearly imprinted in his mind.
The energy ball shoots out at high speed.
Like an embroidery needle, flying among the crowd!
Thread the needle!
Zhang Hao understood the secret and became more and more adept at it.
With his and Ace's cooperation, thousands of rebels in the entire square were completely wiped out.
Zhang Hao and Ace smiled at each other, but soon realized something was wrong.
The guards were looking blankly at the bodies of the rebels in the square, with no expression or joy of victory on their faces.
Zhang Hao suddenly felt something was wrong.
really!
The bodies of the rebels in the square, along with the guards beside them, began to become illusory and finally disappeared.
Before Zhang Hao and the other two could react, the rebels' shouts were heard again in the square.
Thousands more rebels were approaching in orderly steps.
Zhang Hao looked back and saw the guards who had just disappeared rushing out of the palace again.
"this……"
Zhang Hao began to realize that this was an infinite loop.
The rebels were getting closer and closer, and Zhang Hao and his two companions were forced to fight again!
A wave.
Second wave.
…
Once again, three waves of rebels were killed in a row.
Irene squatted on the ground, leaning on her sword, panting.
Ace was not much better off. His constant attacks were extremely exhausting, and his head began to swell slightly, a sign of over-exertion of his mental power.
Zhang Hao was even more embarrassed.
More than half of the energy stored in the blade battery has been consumed, and there are only a few energy balls that can be condensed.
Moreover, his willpower was not as strong as Ace's, and the constant high-intensity control made him begin to feel dizzy.
Zhang Hao stood in front of the palace, swaying.
And in the distance came the next wave of rebels' shouts and fighting.
Ace saw Zhang Hao's appearance and said anxiously: "Zhang Hao, stop attacking with your mind. If you continue, you will become an idiot!"
The rebels in front of him, the energy beams shot at him, and Ace's voice came to his ears again.
Zhang Hao suddenly felt dizzy and just subconsciously shot at the rebels.
His arms were aching, his chest felt like it was burning, his mind was still pulling at his body, and Zhang Hao rushed into the rebels!
Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of Ace rushing towards me.
…
A long time passed.
Zhang Hao opened his eyes.
He was lying on the throne in the palace.
"You're awake."
A woman's voice came to my ears.
It's Ace's daughter, Irene.
"What's wrong with me?" Zhang Hao sat up and asked blankly.
Irene waved her arms in front of him and asked tentatively, "Do you recognize me?"
"You are Ace's daughter, how come I don't recognize you?"
Irene's worried look and strange questions made Zhang Hao feel confused.
"Huh~ That's good~"
Irene let out a breath.
"You scared us to death just now. You rushed over alone, relying solely on your body to resist those robots. You went crazy!"
Zhang Hao patted his head, it seemed to be true: at that time he was relying entirely on his willpower to make the final persistence.
"Then why am I here again?" Zhang Hao asked.
Irene curled her lips and said, "You think you are a god from heaven!"
"That was a robot made of thousands of steel and iron. You were exhausted in the end! Your father was also killed by the rebels in order to save you."
“Now it’s time to start over again.”
Listening to Irene's words, Zhang Hao quickly discovered the problem.
If I had to start all over again, why would I be lying here?
Shouldn't he be standing outside the palace?
That is the point of every rebirth.
"I wasn't reborn outside the palace?" Zhang Hao asked.
Irene replied, "Yes, but you were in a coma. My father and I carried you in."
"And your father?"
Irene looked outside the palace, "I'm stopping the rebels alone to buy you some time."
After figuring out the whole story, Zhang Hao started thinking.
"First, according to Irene's description, he died of exhaustion after fighting, but the game started over again after Ace died trying to save him."
"So, the key to this infinite cycle lies in Ace's life and death."
"Secondly, he was reborn and unconscious outside the palace because he overused his mind in the previous game. From this, it seems that every restart is not completely without loss."
Zhang Hao became more and more serious.
"What's wrong? What did you think of?" Irene asked anxiously. She thought Zhang Hao had some sequelae.
"I understand! Zeus's real purpose is to erase your father's consciousness through this infinite cycle!"
After that betrayal, only Ace's consciousness was preserved, hiding in the VR virtual world on Earth.
And in this virtual world, every battle is a drain on Ace's will.
If Ace doesn't resist, he will be killed by the rebels every time, and will be reborn over and over again in this cycle, and sooner or later he will be driven crazy.
If Ace resists, he will definitely use his mind to control energy and will also be eaten away bit by bit.
Dead end!
Irene sighed softly and said, "My father has thought of it, but what can we do?"
"He told me that he chose to fight alongside you not because he saw hope, but because you came back and he didn't want to disappoint you."
Irene turned her back and said, "Now that you're awake, you should choose to leave this virtual world. There's no need to bury us with you."
Zhang Hao clenched his fists and whispered, "So Ace is fighting with me to teach me more skills, the skills of mind attack?"
Irene nodded and walked out of the palace.
"This is the last way he can help you . Whether you can lead your planet to resist Zeus depends on you alone."
The shadow of the red armor was cast at the entrance of the palace, getting longer and longer.
The guards in the palace repeated themselves once more, following Irene woodenly.
"There must be a way to break the impasse!"
Zhang Hao paced back and forth in front of the throne, completely unaware of the fighting outside the palace.
…
Ace turned around and saw Irene rushing out alone and standing next to him.
"Erin, where's Zhang Hao?"
"I've already told him, he'll figure it out."
Ace nodded silently, not wanting to see Zhang Hao wasting his life in vain.
From another perspective, the previous battle was an attempt by him to temper Zhang Hao's willpower.
But when he saw Irene coming out alone just now, he still felt a little melancholy in his heart.
He looked at the light hanging in the darkness and muttered to himself.
Have the young people on this planet finally given up?
