  Chapter 340 The meaning of 'z'

   "The opponent also has resurrection props!" Lin Xue said.

   This cross is obviously the effect of the upcoming resurrection, and it is a resurrection prop different from the phoenix feather.

   "Then kill again!"

   Mu You talked and looked at Vivian on Lin Xue's shoulder.

  Vivian also understood what he meant, and directly pressed the pocket watch for him, returned to before the kill, and re-rolled to get the exploded item.

  The killing process is repeated again and again, and all kinds of equipment and props have exploded on the way, but they are all ordinary items, and the truly valuable ones should be bound.

  A considerable part of the items that exploded were soul-restraining stones. It seemed that the other party had also collected this stone along the way before. The reason why they acted alone was probably to improve the efficiency of collecting soul-restraining stones, so they dispersed with their companions.

  Shallow rolled over a hundred times, and when the other party exploded the map fragments again, Mu You told Vivian to stop pressing the watch.

   No matter what, pick up the debris first.

  【City of Eternal Night: The fifth map fragment. 】

  Looking at the map in his hand, Mu You's eyes lit up, and the opponent took the No. 5 fragment! This is a big profit!

   But at this time, he didn't have time to look carefully. After getting the things, Mu You and Lin Xue immediately surrounded the cross one by one, ready to kill again.

   A few seconds later, a brilliance bloomed on the ground, the cross disappeared automatically, and the brilliance quickly condensed into a figure, which was the woman just now.

  Mu You and the two had already finished their preparations. As soon as they appeared, they immediately launched an attack in their hands.

  However, the attacks of the two ended up in an empty space: the moment the opponent condensed, he disappeared immediately, appeared in the other direction a hundred meters away, and then turned and ran without looking back.

  Obviously, there are other life-saving props on the opponent, which are automatically triggered when revived, and appear directly 100 meters away from the resurrection point, keeping a sufficient distance to avoid being "guarded".

   Seeing the other party running away, Mu You and Lin Xue naturally chose to pursue.

   Hongxiu also understood that it was time to race against time, and there was no time to look back. After running a few steps, he jumped high, and a flying broom appeared in his hand, stepped on the broom, and quickly fled the scene.

  However, before she could fly far, she suddenly felt her flight speed stagnate, and she was pulled by a powerful force with her broom, and began to back up.

  Looking back, she realized that a silver metal device appeared on the chest of the robot in the distance, as if a magnet was attracting her back.

  Hongxiu was startled. Similar scenes had happened twice before, causing her a serious psychological shadow. At this time, the tragedy was about to repeat itself, and she hurriedly threw a handful of dispersing powder in the air.

   Fortunately, the effect of strong magnetic attraction can be dispelled, and under the flying powder, the falling trend of the red sleeve stopped immediately, and freedom was restored.

  However, before she could turn the broom again, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly saw that the weird robotic arm in front of her transformed into a machine gun. The muzzle was facing her, and a string of straight flames spewed out.

   Hong Xiu, who was hit, instantly became stiff and began to spin on the spot, at an increasing speed.

The floating machine gun is another rare alchemy weapon that Mu You found in Clockwork City. It is similar to the shotgun, and it is also a rapid-fire firearm. The difference is that the bullets fired by the floating machine gun will not disperse and appear in a straight line. .

The floating machine gun will fire a hundred bullets in five seconds, and each bullet will cause the target to enter the floating state and rotate in place for a circle, and the super high rate of fire can ensure that the control will not be in the middle, so as long as Once a shot hits, all subsequent bullets will continue to hit.

   On the surface, this weapon looks like a five-second control skill, which is not too strong, but don't ignore its rotation effect.

  What is the concept of making a living person spin a hundred times in five seconds? I'm afraid my brain will be shaken into a paste!

  As expected, the red sleeve was caught in flames and spun like a spinning top in the air.

  After five seconds passed, the bullets stopped, and the red sleeves had already turned their eyes to stares, their stomachs were churning, and they completely lost their sense of direction.

  However, Hongxiu is not a mortal. She has a lot of combat experience. At this moment when her consciousness is about to faint, she instinctively clicks out an item from the ring: the soul stone.

  The calming effect of the stone finally stabilized her spirit quickly.

However, when she regained consciousness, she found that she hadn't landed on the ground, but was still floating in mid-air. When she looked down, she found that the iron woodman holding a sickle was pointing at her with a magic wand. Want to scold your mother: Fixing Curse!

   At the same time, the weapon in the hand of the mecha man on the side has been replaced by an exaggerated hand cannon at some point. The robot raised its hands obliquely, the muzzle of the gun was facing her in mid-air, and at the front of the muzzle, a dazzling light was gathering.

  Hongxiu felt a deadly threat from the muzzle!

   However, she was unable to avoid it, and could only watch the muzzle of the cannon get brighter and brighter until it fired.

   Although the charged cannon is not the most powerful, it has been charged for nearly seven seconds, and the damage is enough to take away the defenseless woman in red at this time, so Mu You stopped charging in time and fired.

  The white light flickered, and the energy surged and gathered.

  However, at the moment when the cannon was fired, Mu You suddenly found that the woman in mid-air disappeared without any warning.

   At the same time, the muzzle of the cannon held in his hand was actually pointed at himself?

  As Lin Xue's screams sounded in his ears, the next moment, a dazzling beam of light engulfed Mu You, and all his body disintegrated and collapsed directly in the beam of light, and his life value was instantly cleared to zero.

  The light from the cannon dissipated, leaving only one phoenix feather in place!

   Feathers burn quickly.

  In just one second, Mu You, who had recovered as his body, reappeared in place.

  As soon as he was resurrected, Mu You hurriedly looked around. At this moment, Lin Xue had already been sent flying by some kind of force, and at least two-thirds of his armor was damaged with scorched white smoke.

   And Lin Xue's health has dropped from the full blood just now to the red blood state, obviously seriously injured.

   Having said that, although Lin Xue was injured, at least she wasn’t dead yet, and he was instantly killed just now...

   Mu You turned his head solemnly, and looked in a certain direction tens of meters away.

   There, a man who had never seen before was hugging the red sleeve, let go and put the woman who was still in shock on the ground.

  The ID above the other party's head also immediately allowed them to confirm the identity of this person: Z World Walker!

  Although I have been prepared before, this guy may appear, so I hurried to kill one first.

  But he still didn't expect that this guy's appearance would be so exaggerated, and the sand spiders Mu You arranged around him didn't give him any warning.

  The opponent appeared without warning, and reversed the situation in an instant. While saving his companion, he also let the enemy die and maim...

   No wonder those who chased him before died.

   This person's ability is even more perverted than imagined!

  To be honest, even though Mu You experienced it himself, he still couldn't understand how the other party did so many outrageous things in an instant.

  Just as he was thinking, the light and shadow in front of him suddenly changed.

   Mu You found himself back in the robot state, with a cannon in his hand, aiming at the woman in red at high altitude, the light from the cannon's muzzle was already extremely bright.

   Mu You immediately understood that it was Vivian who pressed the pocket watch.

   It was also just right, taking this opportunity, he had to take a good look at what happened just now.

   Mu You held the hand cannon, his eyes swept around, and his mind was highly concentrated, trying to find any clues about Z-world walkers.

   But no!

   Until the cannon was fired, there was no sign of anyone else around.

  The next moment, the woman above his head suddenly disappeared, and at the same time, his cannons turned to him again...

  The whole process was almost the same as before, Mu You died for the second time, and then was reborn from the ashes.

   Backtracking for the first time, Mu You didn't get any useful information.

   Fortunately, there is still a chance.

  Not long after he was resurrected, Vivian pressed his pocket watch again.

  Time passed, and Mu You raised the hand cannon again.

   But this time, he chose to move the muzzle away from the woman, and aimed at the position where the walker in the z world was about to appear next.

  However, it was useless, he still didn't see the picture of Z World Walker appearing, and the muzzle returned to himself at the moment when it was about to fire...

  Next.

the fourth time…

the fifth time…

  …

  Vivian seemed to understand his thoughts very well, pressing the watch on time, Mu You was able to repeat the five seconds again and again, constantly replaying the process of death.

However, no matter how concentrated he is, he can't see the scene of Z World Walker appearing, and no matter what he does, where he aims the muzzle, or even stops charging and firing in advance, the shells will always fall on himself in the end body.

   As for canceling the shelling or switching skins, these are impossible, because the charge has already started, and he must fire this shot before he can do other operations.

   That is to say, under the current conditions, the outcome of his death has been fixed and cannot be avoided.

  So after going back 180 times, Vivian stopped pressing the watch, and after Mu You died again, time began to flow normally.

Through these 180 times of backtracking and a full 900 seconds of observation and thinking, Mu You confirmed one thing: the other party did appear suddenly in an instant, a moment shorter than teleportation, after all, even teleportation can It caused spatial fluctuations in advance, but there were no signs of this person's appearance.

   Moreover, the moment the opponent appeared, he also killed him and maimed Lin Xue...

  To be honest, Mu You always thought that the other party used some kind of space transfer ability at first, which could instantly switch the position and state of matter.

   But after going back a few times, he quickly discovered that it was not: being able to do so many things in an instant has nothing to do with space, because time is simply too late, no matter how fast the speed is... Unless, he doesn’t need time!

  Plus the ID of the other party, Z World Walker, no time needed...

   A flash of inspiration flashed in Mu You's mind, and he suddenly understood something.

  Zjiexingzhe's z may not be an English abbreviation, nor is it a character that makes up the number of words, but the initial letter of a certain Chinese character.

   This Chinese character is: 'stop'.

   Stop the world walker!

   People who walk in a static world, this is the true meaning of the other party's ID.

  Yes, the ability of the z-world walker is probably to suspend time and move freely in the stagnant world!

  So the other party can teleport in the eyes of others...

  So the other party can instantly change the position of others...

  So the opponent can always change the direction of his muzzle before firing...

  So the other party can always kill people invisible, so that no one has a chance to escape or ask for help...

  …

  In a world where time stands still, there are too many things that can be done.

   And all of the above can be easily done for this person with just a light press of his thumb.

   "Have you finally realized it? The opponent's ability..."

  At this moment, Vivienne's voice quietly appeared in his ears.

   Mu You turned his head and looked, there was nothing on his shoulders, but he knew that Vivienne was standing invisible on his shoulders at this moment.

   "You already knew?" Mu You asked.

  Vivienne had divination for Lin Xue before, and she obviously saw something at that time, but she didn't say it out. Now, judging from what she said, it seems that she has already known the other party's method.

   Mu You wanted to ask her if she had already calculated the other party's ability when she did the divination.

  Vivian shook her head and sent him a voice transmission: "No, I just found out."

"During the divination, I just calculated that you will meet a very powerful opponent who can easily kill both of you. I don't know what this person's ability is...but it seems that this person's ability is restrained by me, because as long as If I am present at the same time, I have the opportunity to change your karma."

   "Restrained by you?" Mu You was taken aback.

   "For some reason, the ability of time is invalid for me, you know that." Vivienne said.

  As soon as she reminded him, Mu You just remembered that his pocket watch has always been invalid for Vivienne. Every time he presses the watch, when the whole world is reset, only his and her memories can be preserved.

   "So you saw him activate his ability?" Mu You asked.

"Yes, I saw with my own eyes how he stopped time, then how he entered the battlefield, how he turned your cannon, and how he prepared for an attack that could seriously injure Xiaoxue from all angles. The reason why Xiaoxue is still alive is because It's just because it took too much time for the opponent to enter the battlefield, and he didn't have time to prepare for more attacks, otherwise, it would have been a double kill just now..." Vivian said.

That is to say, when the other party paused the time just now, only Z World Walker and Vivienne were still able to move, but according to Vivian's meaning, she did not expose herself, but hid herself, as a bystander , witnessed everything the other party did.

   "Wait, how long has he been acting in the world where time is still?" Mu You asked this key question.

   "Three minutes and twenty seconds."

   "Damn it!"

   Mu You was speechless.

  He thought that the IMBA ability of time suspension, being able to stand still for a few seconds was enough to defy the sky. After all, his pocket watch can only go back five seconds...

   As a result, the opponent can pause for more than three minutes?

  For such a long time, there are too many things that can be done!

   At this time, the conversation between the two people sounded from the opposite side.

   "Brother Nan, they took away the pieces of Eternal Night City!"

   After confirming that she was safe, Hong Xiu patted her chest in shock, and immediately complained to the man beside her.

   "Hehe, it doesn't matter, once you get the inheritance of the **** of death, other sky cities will be useless to us."

  The man smiled and comforted Hongxiu, patted her on the back, and pointed to the Skull Mountain in the distance.

   "Go, just leave it to me."

   "Then be careful."

  Hongxiu exhorted softly, then turned to look at Mu You and the others opposite, with a smug sneer at the corner of his mouth, he turned and ran towards Skull Mountain without going forward again.

  Here Lin Xue saw Hongxiu leaving, subconsciously wanted to chase after her, but was stopped by Mu You's eyes.
