Odd Containment Specialist

Two possibilities.

A dangerous existence on the rooftop suddenly had murderous intentions towards him.

Or the other party had murderous intentions in the first place, but had just gained the power to threaten him!

Xia Shou pushed his feet against the ground, and under the influence of [Mass Manipulation], his body soared into the sky and jumped directly onto the rooftop.

A man wearing red gloves opened his eyes wide and looked at Xia Shou in shock.

Behind him, Su Weiyu raised the Tongziqi, as if he did not expect Xia Shou to rush up in this way.

Xia Shou twisted his waist and turned in mid-air, and threw the 400-jin sword around his body like a discus, and threw it behind Su Weiyu.

The sword gained an unprecedented initial velocity at the moment it left his hand, and shot like a cannonball at the giant behind Su Weiyu, a bull-headed man with bull horns!

The sword cut off the bull-headed man's thick shoulders and pierced deeply into the ground. Su Weiyu only reacted at this time and squatted down to avoid the hairy giant arm that passed over his head.

Su Weiyu looked at the giant behind her in horror, and was surprised.

When did such a big thing appear?

She was sure that there was no such monster on the rooftop when she came up.

Xia Shou looked forward along the second red line and saw a person standing on the edge of the rooftop of a taller residential building across the street, looking down at this place.

Brown hair, one-eyed dragon, white eyes!

Xia Shou had seen photos of Robert. Although he had changed a lot, it was undoubtedly Robert.

Sparrow told him about Robert's ability.

Robert's ability [Image Reproduction] is an ability to copy the things that were photographed in reality, and the strength of the replica is not the same as the original body, and is linked to shooting skills and other factors.

In addition, when using this ability, there must be a projector that keeps showing. Once the projector stops showing, the replica will be completely removed.

The reason why a new red line appeared just now should be that Robert got the projector!

But why did he become like that?

And since he could see Su Weiyu, it means he is no longer human!

This guy should have taken the remains of the Named One and done something with them.

"You killed Blood Gloves!" Xia Shou said to Su Weiyu.

As soon as his feet landed on the ground, he ignored Blood Gloves, passed by the opponent's side, and rushed straight to Rob, but he couldn't pull out the giant sword stuck in the ground. He didn't have enough strength to overcome the friction, and [Mass Manipulation] couldn't help.

There was an explosion downstairs, and Jiang Wengao also chased to the rooftop with the help of the flames. Blood Gloves himself had no intention of watching, and he and Jiang Wengao attacked Xia Shou from the left and right!

Su Weiyu swung the Tongzi Cutter to cut at Blood Gloves' throat. The Minotaur stretched out his thick arms and resisted the knife. The extremely sharp nature of the Demon Slayer Sword made it cut meat like cutting vegetables, and the bones and flesh were easily cut off. It looked like it could chop off Blood Gloves' head. A huge shadow suddenly shrouded Su Weiyu's head!

The feeling of extreme danger made Su Weiyu stop the fatal attack, and turned around to swing the knife behind him. A huge humanoid skeleton three people high was raising his hand to slap it. The white bones collided with the blade, and the ice-blue frost climbed along the blade to the handle.

Su Weiyu pulled the Tongziqie frozen on the bones, but the surface of Tongziqie was already attached with a thick layer of hard frost, which became extremely heavy. Even if the knife was knocked hard against the wall, the frost could not be shattered.

Now Tongziqie has become no different from a stick!

Xia Shou glanced at Su Weiyu with his peripheral vision. Su Weiyu was already in a difficult battle and could not solve the blood gloves. Jiang Wengao and the blood gloves would soon catch up with him.

But when the blood gloves were about to chase here, the giant frost skeleton suddenly changed its target and swung its hand to hit Jiang Wengao.

Where the bone palm fell, the blue ice crystals generated by the explosion spread in all directions like a thorn bush!

Jiang Wengao used fire to transform his body into an element, but his transformation seemed to be suppressed by some force, resulting in an incomplete transformation. Several sharp ice spikes pierced his shoulders that were like fire and flesh.

Jiang Wengao's face was pale, and his eyes showed obvious panic.

Fortunately, the giant skeleton immediately slapped the blood gloves with his other hand, interrupting the blood gloves' pursuit.

"So this is the shortcoming of Robert's ability." Xia Shou said to himself.

Sparrow said that Robert's ability is to reproduce things that have been filmed, so he can only control the appearance and disappearance of these anomalies, but he can't control the behavior of these anomalies.

There are anomalies like the minotaur who are willing to be controlled by him, and there are also dangerous anomalies like this giant skeleton who can't distinguish between friend and foe!

Although the shortcomings are obvious, it is indeed a very powerful ability. No wonder Sparrow wanted to pull him on board.

Xia Shou took a last look at Su Weiyu and felt that Su Weiyu would not be able to resist this time. Xia Shou also felt that the end of their battle would probably be the death of all members.

However, until now, they have gained a lot, it is worth it!

"Alice, deprive Blood Glove of his vision!" Xia Shou said coldly.

The vision was successfully deprived.

Blood Glove's movement suddenly stagnated, and the giant skeleton stepped on him. The lower half of Blood Glove instantly turned into broken ice. Because the nerves were paralyzed by the freezing, he didn't even feel the pain.

"Deprive Rob of his vision." Xia Shou then ordered.

"Lord Xia Shou, I can't do it." Alice replied solemnly.

Xia Shou's face suddenly changed.

Can't do it?

His current abnormality level has been raised to level four, but he has not been able to take away Rob's vision. The opponent's level has exceeded level four!

calm……

This time it's just a test, just try to get the other party to use all their cards.

The opponent's ability [Image Reappearance] is extremely restrictive in its use, and Rob himself has no aggression at all, so he only needs to attack his body directly!

A square rectangular iron block appeared out of thin air in Xia Shou's palm. This was a thunder gun made with [Future Prefabrication].

Lightning exploded in Xia Shou's palm, and golden light surged from between his fingers, forming a golden lightning spear.

Xia Shou raised his hand and made a throwing motion, and Robert's one eye flashed white.

…

"?"

Where is this?

Xia Shou stared blankly at the unfamiliar environment in front of him, his mind went blank, and he was extremely shocked.

A second ago, he was sitting in the college entrance examination room.

In just the blink of an eye, he appeared in this strange place.

This seems to be...a rooftop?

There seemed to be a pair of cold hands pinching him around his neck, and in his hand, he was holding a strange supernatural weapon made of golden lightning and shaped like a spear!

Xia Shou stood frozen on the spot, not daring to move at all.

In addition to the cold hands on his neck, he also felt something insect-like in his clothes, which seemed to be crawling on his back, making his scalp numb and his body covered with goosebumps.

"Lord Xia Shou?"

Xia Shou heard a confused female voice coming from behind him.

Xia Shou turned his head subconsciously.

The moment he turned to look behind him, he felt a sharp pain in his back, and in an instant, his body completely lost consciousness.

Immediately afterwards, another huge force was exerted on his neck.

He flew up, everything in front of him was spinning, and his body seemed to become very light... or like he had no body at all.

"Boom!"

His head hit something, and his rotating vision finally stopped. His perspective was extremely close to the ground, and his cheek was pressed against the cold and dirty concrete floor.

At this moment, Xia Shou realized what had happened. The body in school uniform standing next to him fell down with a plop. It was his own body!

The broken neck section with exposed vertebrae was spurting out blood!

Moreover, there seemed to be some kind of centipede-like thing twisting on the back of the corpse. Soon, the strange monster pierced the thin school uniform, revealing a transparent and smooth crystal body like obsidian... like a scorpion and a centipede. The same snake-like monster!

Xia Shou felt very cold, his mind was completely stagnant and he couldn't think.

what happened? Why does it happen?

Everything is unknown and a question mark, and the time left for him to think may not even be ten seconds. He is going to die.

Damn...what the hell is going on?

Is this time travel?

Did he die so mysteriously as soon as he traveled through time?

There is nothing so unreasonable in the world!

His consciousness was rapidly blurring, and at the end, he saw a girl frozen into an ice sculpture, being beaten to pieces by a huge skeleton monster...

…

…

Su Yue and Jiang Wengao were eating fried rice with eggs in front of them. The phone was still in their hands and pressed to their ears. Su Weiyu asked him on the phone if he wanted to stop that person from making calls.

"Stop him from making phone calls, but don't kill him." Xia Shou made a decision immediately.

After saying that, Xia Shou immediately took out his notes and started writing down notes.

There are too many things going on, and too much information has been obtained, so I must write them down quickly.

It should be the effect of seeking his own death, which caused Rob to turn into the person he was when he just traveled through time, and changed back to his original state again, and completely remembered what he was thinking at that time.

Rob has more than one ability. In addition to [image reappearance], he also has the ability to change people into their past state!

Not only the body, but even the memory and clothes will change!

Su Weiyu was turned into that by Rob, and so was he.

It's just that Su Weiyu became the person she was on June 3, 2023, and what he changed back into was the person he was when he just traveled through time.

"Alas..." Xia Shou lamented.

This ability is really abnormal.

Directly resetting a person's state back to a certain moment in the past is equivalent to losing a lot of combat experience and intelligence memory about the current situation.

This is like an old player in the game starting the game directly against a novice who has just entered the game and has not studied the novice guide.

There is no suspense in the result, it must be pure and complete torture!

Xia Shou didn't expect that he would be able to quickly adapt to such extreme situations when he just traveled through time.

If he could really use the tools and skills at hand to kill Rob directly when he first crossed over, then he wouldn't have to be the finisher.

"What should we do now? He seems to be going out." Su Weiyu reported on her mobile phone.

When Xia Shou heard Su Weiyu's report, he felt like his head was about to explode.

Regarding Rob's abilities, he had a lot of information to analyze and record.

But there are many things that need to be dealt with urgently right now.

The most important thing is that his brain can only store memory for one hour!

This reminded Xia Shou that when they were in their third year of high school, their idiot class teacher had a sudden idea and asked everyone in the class to do a set of math papers in thirty minutes.

He also felt like he was finished at that time.

Too late.

It’s too late!

In the end... what should we do?

"A Shou?" Su Weiyu urged again on the phone.

"You...you follow him."

Xia Shou was extremely anxious, but he still tried to assign tasks calmly.

Jiang Wengao and Su Yue, while eating egg fried rice, chatted about the problem that Xia Shou had solved. They were trying to reason out why someone was living in the room in this place.

"Brother Xia Shou, don't you want to eat? People are made of iron and rice is made of steel. Only when you are full can you have the energy to do things." Su Yue persuaded with concern.

Xia Shou felt that his brain was about to explode, and negative emotions were accumulating rapidly.

Jiang Wengao and Su Yue were completely useless. Su Weiyu didn't understand his energy just now, and he didn't have enough time to repeat it, because he only had an hour of memory, and he was about to delete the memory before coming to this hotel.

"Record...write and record while talking." Xia Shou repeated softly as if he wanted to brainwash himself.

All the information must be written down as detailed as possible.

Yes, not brief, but detailed!

Write it down in detail, and then let Su Weiyu take it outside the city and put it on Li Ming's table.

After writing the detailed one, make a brief copy for your own use later.

"Brother Shou, what are you doing?" Jiang Wengao felt that Xia Shou's expression was a little wrong.

Xia Shou didn't even raise his head and wrote quickly: "Go and control the owner of this store for me. He is monitoring us. Xiaoyue, you continue to eat."

Jiang Wengao was stunned for a moment and wanted to ask Xia Shou how he knew.

But he reacted in an instant. This is the Forgotten City. Maybe they have forgotten the important clues, but Xia Shou happened to remember them!

Jiang Wengao didn't hesitate. He put down the spoon and walked to the back kitchen of the hotel.

The boss is no longer at the counter, so he has to find him.

Xia Shou quickly recorded the information, focusing on the blood gloves and Robert's abilities, and also analyzing the details of their abilities.

Robert's ability, let's call it [Past Replay].

The ability of [Past Replay] has limitations when used, and the mechanism of effectiveness is also regular.

His body and memory returned to the past, his clothes also changed back to the past, his original body was replaced, but the scorpion spine remained.

And Alice called him "Lord Xia Shou" at that time, but on the day he traveled through time, Alice was still asleep, so Alice did not become the Alice of the past.

By the way... Rob's level is above LV4, and when he casts [Past Replay], his eyes will emit white light, just like a spotlight.

"The present Alice is pinching the neck of my past self, so even if the past me and the present me switch places, the abnormal influence I am suffering from now will still be inherited by the past me?

But the scorpion spine has left the body... The scorpion spine is a bit like a forbidden object transformation, and it is probably because of this reason that it was not inherited synchronously.

Alice and I have a contractual relationship, so this continuous abnormal connection is still effective?

It should be, after all, the past me was still pulled back by the [Self-Destruction] used by the present me."

Xia Shou's brain was heating up, the scorpion spine was operating at full power, and the brain nerves were extremely active.
