I'm really not the god of time.

Chapter 113 [Eclipse Society] Vice President, Invincible Man for 30 Seconds

Fang Xinyu patted his chest and said loudly:

"I'm announcing today that new rules are coming to Outpost Town! From now on, anyone who dares to steal from others in the wild should be prepared to be chased by creditors!"

Those people immediately burst into laughter.

"New rules? What gives you the right?"

"The rules of Outpost Town were set by all the major powers together. Do you think you, a little girl, have the right to change them at will?"

"Are you out of your mind? Who do you think you are?"

Fang Xinyu sneered and said:

"Let me tell you, I have a powerful backer now. We're the hunter team from the Clover Hermitage!"

The moment the words "Clover Hermitage" were uttered, the room fell silent for a moment.

This organization is too mysterious!

Although most people have never been exposed to it, they have all heard of it in the context of the deep network.

Old Bai laughed and said:

"The Clover Hermitage is very mysterious, but whether it can establish itself in the danger zone is another matter. If you want to set rules in the danger zone, we'll only look at your current abilities."

Then, he turned to Yu Li and gestured for him to enter.

"Mr. Yu, shall we warm up our muscles a bit?"

Yu Li remained seated at the table, slowly sipping his drink.

Only then did he slowly stand up, his face showing a hint of arrogance.

"good!"

The hunters who came to the meeting immediately tensed up.

The former branch manager of Golden Rose is also going to get involved in this dispute.

It looks like this is going to blow up today.

Old Bai looked at Fang Xinyu and Ding Shuangshuang, intentionally trying to provoke them, and said:

"Alright, I'll give you two a chance."

If you come over and have a few drinks with us, I'll let bygones be bygones.

"From now on, you two will work with us, and we guarantee you'll live the high life."

After saying that, he burst into laughter.

The surrounding hunters joined in the laughter, their eyes filled with flattery.

Ding Shuangshuang was so angry that she trembled all over and slammed her fist on the car window.

He gestured for Zhang Lingyun to come out quickly.

Your woman has been harassed, why isn't she coming out yet?

Zhang Lingyun felt somewhat helpless.

He straightened his suit, maintained an elegant posture, and slowly stepped out of the back seat of the car.

When Yu Li saw the person who came out, the smile on his face instantly froze.

He had fought the con artist twice, though they had never faced each other directly.

However, from Yu Li's perspective, this person is not only unfathomably powerful, but also extremely mysterious and unpredictable in his actions, truly worthy of being someone who once deceived the gods.

I saw the con artist again, with that faint smile on his face and the lightning bolt scar on his forehead.

All sorts of unpleasant memories flooded his mind instantly, and his legs began to tremble.

Zhang Lingyun behaved politely in front of everyone and said:

"Today, we have only one objective: to reclaim our prey. Anyone not involved may leave; otherwise, they will be treated as enemies and executed."

As Zhang Lingyun spoke, the oil drums and the big guy outside were still wreaking havoc.

Long Pole continued to pick off targets with his sniper rifle, and Old White's men fell one after another into pools of blood.

Those attending the meeting were unaware of Zhang Lingyun's background.

I could only sense that beneath this person's elegant demeanor lay an incredibly arrogant attitude, as if he looked down on everyone.

Someone shouted a question:

"Who do you think you are, daring to order so many of us around like that!"

Zhang Lingyun smiled slightly and said:

"My name is nothing special, just call me the Fraudster. I've come here on behalf of the Clover Hermitage to demand justice."

The name "fraudster" came out.

The young hunters were still somewhat bewildered, not knowing who this person was.

But some experienced hunters turned deathly pale instantly, and even stopped breathing.

They never expected that the man who had supposedly deceived the gods would be involved.

After so many years of silence, they have reappeared in this world under the name of the Clover Hermitage.

Some people have even realized it.

The world is about to become unfair; this person is about to stir up a storm.

The thought of this made everyone uneasy.

Before the tree even fell, the monkeys had already scattered.

A sudden clattering sound filled the hall.

Many cups and plates were smashed, and the chairs were knocked askew.

The banquet hall, which was bustling just moments ago, was now empty except for five people.

-----------------

The hall was deathly silent.

Old Bai's smile froze as he looked at the guests who had all disappeared.

Looking at Zhang Lingyun, who had scared everyone away with just his reputation, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

But he still tried to remain calm and gripped the long knife tightly in his hand.

"So what if you're a con artist? This is a dangerous area; you can't scare people with your reputation."

Before she finished speaking, Fang Xinyu had already moved.

According to the tactics devised by Zhang Lingyun, Fang Xinyu and Ding Shuangshuang were to work together to deal with Lao Bai alone.

Fang Xinyu's right arm twisted and swelled instantly.

It extended more than a dozen barbed, fleshy tentacles, lashing out at Lao Bai like venomous snakes.

Old Bai reacted extremely quickly, blocking the attack with his sword and cleaving the tentacle into several pieces.

Ding Shuangshuang also made a move at the same time.

She quickly approached.

He held the pistol in his left hand and fired repeatedly.

The bullets struck Old White's [energy shield], making a crisp clanging sound.

At the same time, her right hand also moved, releasing [Icy Touch].

The icy phantom pressed against Old Bai's longsword.

A bone-chilling cold instantly spread, a thick layer of white frost formed on the longsword, and even Lao Bai's arm became stiff.

Old Bai roared and shattered the frost with a sudden burst of power.

Facing Fang Xinyu's approach, he cleaved off one of her hands with a single stroke.

With a "crack," more than a dozen tentacles and arms were neatly severed.

But Fang Xinyu remained unfazed.

The pieces of flesh that had fallen to the ground seemed to have a life of their own, wriggling rapidly and reforming into a new arm.

Old Bai was forced to retreat repeatedly by the two girls, and could only keep swinging his long sword to defend himself.

But if you cut off one tentacle, two more will grow back.

Fang Xinyu's magic is a perfect counter to his fighting style.

Moreover, Ding Shuangshuang's simultaneous use of mechanical and magical techniques caused him to continuously deplete his [magic points].

On the other side, Zhang Lingyun was slowly walking towards Yu Li.

He always wore a faint smile, his eyes filled with indifferent nonchalance.

Yu Li was so frightened that his legs went weak, and he retreated step by step until his back slammed heavily against the wall.

As he watched the con artist approach, the memory of his two previous failures flashed through his mind.

The first time, he was stripped of all his [Essence of Power] abilities;

The second time, he was so frightened that he fled Green Island City like a stray dog.

Yu Li shouted, trembling:

"Don't come any closer!"

Zhang Lingyun smiled and asked:

"What's wrong, Minister Yu? Don't you want to make a move?"

"I... I surrender! I'm willing to make a deal with you! Just spare my life. I have some experience with both the 'Protection School' and the 'Change School'."

Zhang Lingyun stopped and raised an eyebrow in surprise.

His original plan was to stall Yu Li first.

After Fang Xinyu and Ding Shuangshuang take down Lao Bai, the three of them will join forces to attack Yu Li from both sides.

Unexpectedly, this former Golden Rose branch manager was so easily frightened that he lost his nerve.

But he had no intention of letting go of any effort.

This guy is like an unkillable cockroach; every time you spare his life, he'll just cause new trouble.

Moreover, Yu Li is a traitor to the Golden Rose Society.

Keeping him around is bad for the reputation of [Golden Rose], I should share the burden for my master.

Most importantly, he had already acquired his most valuable experience in the [Energy Shaping School] through a trade.

The remaining fragmented experience was not worth sparing his life.

Based on the above three points, Zhang Lingyun had already sentenced Yu Li to death in her heart.

But he showed no murderous intent on his face; instead, his smile became even more gentle.

The con artist is a genius of the "Charm School," possessing an innate charisma that inspires convincing others.

Anyone would readily believe him if he wanted to.

Just like Ding Shuangshuang's mother, she could be easily tricked into having a child.

Zhang Lingyun shrugged and said:

"Sure. I'm not a bloodthirsty person. If you're willing to hand over all your experience, I can spare your life."

Upon hearing this, Yu Li's eyes lit up instantly.

He quickly said:

"Really? You mean it?"

"certainly."

Zhang Lingyun approached him step by step, her tone so sincere that no one could doubt her.

"I've always valued integrity in my transactions."

Give me your experience, and I'll spare your life, just like last time.

Yu Li completely let down her guard.

He breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, relieved to have survived the ordeal.

He didn't notice at all that Zhang Lingyun's right hand, hanging by his side, had its fingertips slightly bent.

During the last time he was being hunted down, Zhang Lingyun traded the [Whirling Claw Bullet] skill with Fang Xinyu.

After that, Zhang Lingyun practiced it frequently and found that the spell was really useful.

The destructive power of magic, combined with the destructive power of physical force, can cause astonishing dual damage.

Just as Yu Li was preparing his trading experience.

Zhang Lingyun's eyes turned cold, and he flicked his fingertips sharply.

His index fingernail snapped off with a "snap".

A fingernail with a sharp edge flew out in a sharp arc.

With a "pfft".

The fingernail struck Yu Li precisely in the chest.

The immense force of the rotation instantly shattered his heart.

Yu Li's smile froze for a moment.

He looked down in disbelief at the small hole in his chest from which blood was constantly flowing.

He opened his mouth wide, his hand trembling as he pointed at the con artist:

"You liar."

Zhang Lingyun smiled:

"Thank you for the compliment! I am a con artist, after all!"

Yu Liyuan's eyes were wide open when he fell straight down.

Old Bai, who was not far away, was terrified when he saw this scene.

The long sword in his hand almost fell to the ground.

He didn't see this side clearly, but it felt like the outcome was decided in the blink of an eye.

He originally thought that no matter how skilled the con artist was, he was at most on par with Yu Li.

But to his utter surprise, Yu Li, a dignified [High-Rank Sorcerer], was easily killed by the con artist without even taking a single blow.

There was only one thought in his mind right now.

This conman truly deserves to be called a man who has deceived even God.

Even a high-level warlock can be killed instantly.

As for him, a mid-level warlock, he was even less likely to be a match.

To be cheated by a con artist is the worst luck imaginable.

In an instant!

Old Bai has lost all will to fight.

He had only one thought in his mind: Run! Run as fast as you can!

In that instant when Lao Bai was distracted...

Fang Xinyu and Ding Shuangshuang launched a fierce attack simultaneously.

Ding Shuangshuang raised her pistol and fired two shots at Lao Bai's chest.

He was forced to expend his [Energy Shield] to defend himself.

Fang Xinyu seized the opportunity to pounce, and more than a dozen fleshy tentacles wrapped around Lao Bai.

Fang Xinyu roared, and his tentacles tightened abruptly:

"Die!"

Old Bai wanted to continue resisting, hoping to use his superior physical strength to pull Fang Xinyu in front of him.

Zhang Lingyun looked down at his right hand; the nail on his index finger had been pulled out, and blood was slowly flowing from it.

The excruciating pain in his fingers kept reverberating through his mind.

But without hesitation, he bent his middle finger again.

With a "bang," another [Spinning Claw Bullet] flew out and hit Old Bai's shoulder.

A crisp "snap" sounded.

Old Bai's left arm was forcibly torn off.

Fresh blood spurted out.

Old Bai let out a piercing scream.

His years of experience as a hunter allowed him to react instinctively.

He suddenly activated all his magic power, creating a thick energy shield in front of him.

It forcefully blocked Ding Shuangshuang's follow-up [Death Finger].

Immediately afterwards, he released a [phantom clone].

Fang Xinyu and Ding Shuangshuang fell for the trick and launched an attack on the clone at the same time.

Old Bai quickly used [Blend into Shadows].

His body instantly became transparent, blending into the shadows on the ground.

Then, at an extremely fast speed, it moved back and forth in the shadows.

In the blink of an eye, he rushed out of the hall and disappeared into the night.

-----------------

Zhang Lingyun watched as Lao Bai fled.

He remained calm and showed no intention of chasing after them.

He began to speak:

"Never mind, we'll have another chance to deal with him later."

Our most important task now is to retrieve the stolen spirit dragon.

The three of them slowly walked over.

After opening the inner room, we finally saw the fairy dragon, still intact in its cage.

Fang Xinyu was very excited and reached out to pick up the cage.

But to her surprise, a portal suddenly opened up beside her, and then a punch landed on her face.

Fang Xinyu flew sideways and crashed into the wooden door behind her.

The portal then opened wider and wider, and a tall man stepped out.

"I was only gone for a short time, and the base has become like this. What a bunch of useless idiots."

He was tall, standing at least 1.9 meters.

Her short hair was combed straight up, revealing her full forehead.

He was wearing sunglasses, which covered most of his face.

Only his sharply defined jawline and thin lips with a hint of sternness were visible.

He was wearing a long black trench coat, the hem of which remained perfectly still as he walked.

Rather than calling him a "warlock," he's more like an action star.

Ding Shuangshuang sensed the opponent's power in the very first instant.

Her teeth chattered involuntarily, and she instinctively wanted to run away.

But then she suddenly remembered the first time she had encountered Zhang Lingyun.

When she tried to threaten him with a gun, Xia Youran bravely stood in front of the muzzle of the gun.

Ding Shuangshuang gritted her teeth, feeling that her feelings wouldn't lose to Xia Youran's.

So she overcame her fear and stood before Zhang Lingyun.

"You go quickly, I'll hold him off."

Zhang Lingyun was also very surprised, never expecting to encounter such a master.

But he remained calm, patted Ding Shuangshuang on the shoulder, and shielded her behind him.

The newcomer glanced at Zhang Lingyun through the top edge of his sunglasses and said:

"I am Lu Weishen. May I ask your name?"

Zhang Lingyun's pupils contracted sharply.

Unexpectedly, this person was Lu Weishen, the vice president of the [Eclipse Society].

In other words, he and Lan Ruoxi were of equal status, but he was a very formidable opponent.

Zhang Lingyun tried her best to remain elegant and smiled:

"My name is nothing special, just call me a con artist."

Lu Weishen's pupils suddenly contracted.

He took a careful look at Zhang Lingyun.

Finally, he gently shook his head.

"It's true what they say, 'Seeing is believing.' I thought a con artist would be some big shot, but I never expected him to be so low-level."

Zhang Lingyun was secretly surprised.

Unexpectedly, Lu Weishen only glanced at him and discovered that his cultivation level was actually very low.

You should know that when they were deceiving Yu Li and the rat, those people all thought they were [Transcendent Level 3].

Lu Weishen shook his head, put his sunglasses back on, and said:

"If that's all you've got, then I'm really disappointed. All of you come at me at once, but I'll only play with you for 30 seconds."

The next second—

Fang Xinyu suddenly got up and shot several tentacles at him.

But Lu Weishen seemed to have foreseen everything.

He darted forward at an even faster speed, simultaneously lunging forward and extending both palms.

With a loud "bang"—

As if hit by a large truck, Fang Xinyu flew straight out and crashed in the yard outside the door.

The big guy saw this and pounced on it like a madman.

"You dare hit my sister? I'll fight you to the death!"

Lu Weishen simply smiled, dodging the big guy while delivering a knee strike that sent him flying.

The oil drum brandished a machete, displaying a set of sharp knife skills.

But Lu Weishen smiled and easily dodged the attack.

Then, seizing the opportunity, he struck the man's large belly with a palm strike.

The oil drum is covered in thick layers of fat.

He thought he could block the palm strike and then take the opportunity to finish off his opponent with a single blow.

But unexpectedly, it seems that all of this was within the other party's expectations.

The force of the palm strike suddenly traveled inward, directly damaging his internal organs.

The oil drum was sent flying like a ball, tumbling and smashing through debris.

The sniper in the distance quickly adjusted his scope and fired a shot at Lu Weishen.

But Lu Weishen's body, like a phantom, easily dodged the bullets.

Then, he unleashed a [Lightning Strike], which directly blew up the long pole and the sniper position where the virus was hidden.

Lu Weishen glanced at his watch:

"Only 20 seconds have passed."

He smiled calmly, turned around and walked towards Zhang Lingyun.

Ding Shuangshuang hurriedly drew her pistol and fired a burst of shots at him at close range.

But Lu Weishen remained calm, easily swaying his upper body to dodge all the bullets, and simultaneously walked up to her.
