Pretending To Be A Boss-Chapter 577 - 25: Each’s Own Position
The life force of Siren, which had not been reduced in the slightest, suddenly fell to the ground, unable to get up.
Constantine didn't glance at Siren, but he already knew what had happened.
Dense patches of dark green vines spread out, one by one. From corners that were difficult to notice, they slowly climbed onto the metal shells of the Judgement Knights.
At the same time, they entwined around Tang Xian's body as if to protect him. Meanwhile, a blue lotus base supported him, preventing him from sinking further.
In his dream, Tang Xian seemed to have gone through a long chase and battle, but when he opened his eyes, in reality, only a mere few minutes had passed.
In those few minutes, the Judgement Knights were as if they had been firmly locked in place.
These plant vines were incapable of restraining the Judgement Knights, particularly since there were hundreds of them here. They were simply beyond human contention.
Even in the mire-like substance, plants could still grow, enveloping Tang Xian within.
"It seems that entering someone's dreams on one's own is a dangerous affair. Besides, you've missed the best opportunity to kill me."
Tang Xian indeed felt it was a pity; there were no hints in his sea of consciousness.
He didn't know if it was because Siren was still alive.
Such dream control ability was potent, but he could only control his own dreams, reigning supreme over his consciousness.
However, he was unable to enter others' dreams like Siren.
Tang Xian wasn't in a hurry; considering the number of his kills and the acquired skills, if this were treated as a game, the game's drop rate was quite low. Perhaps he hadn't spent enough money on it?
He calmly looked at Constantine and said,
"You chose wrong. Originally, you didn't have to deal with these Judgement Knights, but now you have not only to fight them but also Ganesa and me."
Constantine had not expected Tang Xian to persuade Ju Mang and Ganesa to take action. It seemed this man had started doubting him early on.
He thought he had made thorough preparations, but against Tang Xian, he was still a step behind.
The hundreds of Judgement Knights that had initially locked onto Tang Xian now all turned in unison.
Their firepower was squarely aimed at Constantine and Uranus.
For several human units, the Judgement Knights were an invincible presence, and the reason why Ganesa hadn't launched an attack with his controlled knights was due to Constantine's metal manipulation abilities constantly disrupting the knights.
This ability to alter metal's shape and drive its movement significantly disturbed Ganesa's control commands.
If Ganesa and Siren had spiritual control permissions over the Judgement Knights, then Constantine, like "Magneto," had physical authority over them.
But controlling such a large number of Judgement Knights, he couldn't hold out for long. The battle would become harder as it progressed.
He finally understood the reason for Tang Xian's calmness,
"It seems I've underestimated you. Facing you, I should have been more cautious. Now it's time for them to show up, isn't it? There's no need to keep hiding."
Uranus was equally intelligent, realizing that he had been outmaneuvered by Agent Seven.
Tang Xian nodded, not saying much. After Constantine's words fell, the already vast expanse of plant vines began to expand even further.
It was like numerous giant serpents suddenly erupted from all around, tightly encircling the entire artificial lake.
At the highest point of the mighty vines, there was a young, tall woman with dark green hair, standing barefoot, coldly watching the few people below.
At the same time, a muscular Ganesa also emerged slowly from the depth of the vines.
His steps were slow, his gaze filled with a murderous intent.

The two did not stand with Tang Xian but were in different directions from each other.
Constantine, looking at their positioning, suddenly understood something.
Tang Xian had not persuaded them to join a side, but had convinced them to turn away from his own side.
This was not a battle between two sides; it was more like a melee, except that a few factions had reached a pre-arrangement—akin to slaying the legitimate power first and then each reigning as king.
Constantine wasn't particularly panicked; he calmly said,
"Before we get started, I want to know when exactly you decided to betray me?"
This was addressed to Ju Mang.
Constantine's voice was not loud, but in the area now surrounded by plants, it was also clearly audible.
He was indeed puzzled.
"As a child, when everyone else was bullying him, you just chose to be a spectator. At that time, was it because you were already persuaded by some reason, or did you really just disdain the idea of bullying him? And just when did you two ally with each other?"
Constantine actually took a step forward, as though he wanted to scrutinize Ju Mang's face closely. For him, it was also a predicament now, but he appeared as calm as Tang Xian.
"Because your acting was not good enough, I knew very early on that the two of you were putting on an act." Ju Mang wasn't very talkative; her accent had always been a bit strange.
Because her voice and demeanor did not match, making it seem too juvenile, Ju Mang's speaking always felt discordant.
Even though she looked at everyone with an attitude of hostility, as cold as if no one could get close, when she spoke, she always seemed to lack authority and even appeared somewhat cute.
Constantine Uranus and the others, of course, were used to it. They would never make the mistake of judging by appearance. They were not swayed by voices or faces.
