Girl, you form the head.

Chapter 4 You Must Be Sincere (4K)

Liang Rong stared at the incandescent light in front of him, his face full of vigilance.

Being in this place at this time, dressed like this, is hardly the behavior of a normal person from any angle.

The other party is a special individual, and it is very likely that they are of the same type as me, that is, a special individual who enhances themselves.

Is it a special police unit?
No, that's not right.

Liang Rong's pupils narrowed slightly as he looked at the black mist surrounding Bai Chi.

Dark-type special abilities, also known as ominous special abilities, are special abilities that are explicitly prohibited by this country. Even Liang Rong had only heard of them and had never seen them with his own eyes.

Therefore, he cannot be an official.

So who exactly is this strangely dressed guy?

Liang Rong did not want to fight with a special person of unknown origin at this time, so he cautiously asked, "Who are you, and why have you come to find me?"

The other person was also looking at Liang Rong and slowly spoke.

"So what if I'm not wearing clothes? He can't see it anyway."

Ok?
Liang Rong was taken aback.

Why is this guy's answer so nonsensical? Could it be that there's another person here, but he just hasn't noticed them?

Liang Rong subconsciously turned his head, wanting to see where the naked person was, but he suddenly realized halfway through his turn.

No, this guy is deliberately trying to distract him so he can strike first and win!

So despicable!

Liang Rong immediately assumed a fighting stance.

But to his surprise, the other party did nothing, remaining standing in the same spot, muttering in a very neutral voice.

"So what if I saw it?"

"If you think it's unfair, I can show it to you when we get back."

...What's wrong with this guy?

Liang Rong was a little confused.

Is he schizophrenic, talking so earnestly to someone he doesn't even know?

Liang Rong didn't want to get entangled with the other person any longer, so he slowly backed away, wanting to distance himself from him. Once he was certain the man wasn't an official, he shouldn't dare pursue him too closely at this point.

However, Liang Rong's retreat still caught the other party's attention. He finally raised his head and belatedly met Liang Rong's gaze.

"Alright, let's not delay the important matter." He said as he walked towards Liang Rong, "Let's take care of this guy first."

Liang Rong stopped retreating.

After all, the other party had already said that they would take care of him.

Since that's the case, there's nothing more to discuss. In that instant, his body emitted muffled "thump thump thump" sounds, and his muscles swelled up like bulges.

"You're asking for death!" he roared, charging towards the Shadow Knight like a wild beast.

But at the very moment he launched the charge, a strong sense of unease surged into Liang Rong's heart.

He looked at the black mist beside the knight, and he wasn't sure if it was his imagination, but the floating black mist seemed to have transformed into dark evil spirits. The evil spirits opened their mouths, as if they wanted to devour Liang Rong's soul as well.

The knight, surrounded by evil spirits, slowly raised his hand.

Then, with a "poof" sound.

The knight easily caught Liang Rong's fist as he swung it with all his might.

Liang Rong's eyes widened instantly.

He was a third-tier special user, and this was a punch he threw with all his might, yet the opponent caught it so easily.
Just how... is this guy...?

"boom"!
Before the mental process was even finished, the Shadow Knight was suddenly sent flying backward.

"what?"

Liang Rong stared blankly at the black knight who had been blasted more than ten meters away, somewhat bewildered.

This guy doesn't seem... very strong?

……

Synchronization rate: decreased from 23% (low) to 20% (low)

"The fusion material's incandescence (good condition) has been reduced to (medium condition)."

"Unknown fusion material (low performance)"

A series of status changes came into Bai Chi's view.

"It seems that being attacked also reduces the synchronization rate," Bai Chi murmured. "That means if I am attacked like this twice more, I won't even be able to maintain my knight state."

"What on earth is going on?!" The black-haired girl could naturally see Liang Rong's attack, no, she could see more than just it.

She looked down at her slender wrist, where a ring of redness and swelling was clearly visible.

This damage, which had previously affected the Shadow Knight, was now also affecting her.

"What exactly did you do to me?!" she asked again.

"Can't you see?" Bai Chi replied, "I need your body to provide power for my knight."

The black-haired girl wasn't stupid; she realized it as soon as she saw the black mist beside her through the knight's eyes.

Because that's her unique ability, an ability that can never be replicated.

How did this guy manage to use her special abilities for his own purposes?
The black-haired girl wanted to get to the bottom of things, but it was too late to explain. She saw Liang Rong rushing over from not far away, clearly preparing to finish off Bai Chi.

If what Bai Chi said is true, that being attacked twice more will cause her to lose her knight form, then wouldn't she have to face Liang Rong in her physical form?

She had seen the corpse of the girl Liang Rong had just murdered.

"What should I do?!" the black-haired girl asked loudly.

"Relax," Bai Chi said. "Just don't resist me."

What do you mean by "relax and don't resist"? You might as well just say "don't hide it, let me see it all I want."

So what exactly is this strange anomaly?!
"coming!"

In his field of vision, Liang Rong had already rushed in front of him, and Bai Chi had also stood up again, getting into a fighting stance.

There was no time to hesitate.

The black-haired girl gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and shouted, "Then I'll let you see it clearly!"

Bai Chi also threw a punch at the same time.

There was a "boom".

The Shadow Knight retreated again, and the black mist on his body dissipated rapidly.

"Synchronization rate: 20% (low) reduced to 18% (very low)."

"Warning! Knight status will be dispelled if the synchronization rate falls below 15%!"

The cold notification tone made the black-haired girl, who thought she had already gone all out, open her eyes in a daze: "Didn't I already do as you said? Why is it still... um?!"

Her gaze shifted downwards, and then her eyes widened suddenly.

Because she found that her hands were still firmly guarding her chest, showing no intention of letting go.

"Why is this happening?" she asked in surprise. "I clearly let go..."

"boom"!
In reality, after being injured twice in a row, Bai Chi had given up on taking Liang Rong's attacks head-on and started to dodge. But this was not easy. Bai Chi could feel that the Knight's Body with 18% synchronization rate was not much stronger than his original body. It was really a pipe dream to use it to fight against Liang Rong. But fortunately, the "Shadow Mist Knight" was not only a knight, but also had the words "Shadow Mist".

Bai Chi could control the surrounding black mist to obstruct Liang Rong's vision and buy him some time, but it was only a temporary fix. "What happened?" Bai Chi asked immediately after narrowly dodging a straight punch, "You still won't let go?"

"I'm already letting go!" the black-haired girl shouted, "but I can't control my hands!"

The black-haired girl wasn't lying to Bai Chi. At this moment, her hands were like a pair of iron clamps, firmly protecting her chest. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't let go.

Uncontrollable?

Bai Chi frowned slightly.

Could it be...

"All you do is hide, you bastard!" Liang Rong was already impatient. He roared, "Let's see where you can hide!"

Then he let out a strange roar, the sound waves of which directly dispelled the vengeful black mist, leaving the two of them with no more cover.

"go to hell!"

Liang Rong threw another punch, and this time Bai Chi had no choice but to raise his hands to block.

"boom"!
The knight's body was once again knocked back by Liang Rong's attack, leaving two deep furrows in the ground with his legs.

Synchronization rate: decreased from 18% to 16% (extremely low)

If you get hit again, your knight mode will be canceled.

The black-haired girl was extremely anxious. She was about to tell Bai Chi to escape, but Bai Chi spoke first.

"I understand, you're still resisting."

“Resist? I didn’t resist,” the black-haired girl said. “It’s just that my body won’t listen…”

“No, it’s that deep down you don’t want to do it.” Bai Chi looked at Liang Rong with his physical eyes, and stared at the black-haired girl with his mental eyes. “The body can lie, but the heart can’t. And here we are in a state of heart-to-heart connection, so you can’t lie to yourself.”

"what do you want to say in the end!"

"You can't force yourself," Bai Chi said seriously. "It has to be something you do willingly."

The black-haired girl was shocked.

This means that I not only have to examine your body, but you also cannot have any resistance in your heart. You must be willing, proactive, sincere, and it must be from the heart to the body.

“Do you think that’s possible!” the black-haired girl said. “I’ve only known you for less than half a day, and I don’t even know your name.”

"My name is Bai Chi, and I'm a police officer. Is that enough?"

"What do you think?!"

"That's all I can say for now." Bai Chi looked at Liang Rong, who was in the distance, ready to finish everything. "The next attack will be our last chance. I hope you can give me a little trust. Not too much, just a little will be enough."

Time to end.

Liang Rong could already sense that Bai Chi was nearing its end.

Then the next strike should also determine the victor.

To ensure everything went perfectly, he spread his hands, his muscles bulging again.

"Die!" he roared, his body shooting towards Bai Chi like a bullet, the sudden burst of speed even causing a sonic boom.

The wounded knight had no strength left to dodge or defend himself, so he could only stand there quietly, waiting for death to come.

“I understand.” In the consciousness space, the black-haired girl said softly, “My name is… Ruri Emi.”

Upon hearing this, the arms, which had been like iron chains, finally loosened.

Although it was only a little bit, and although her arms were still not lowered, her tightly bound chest was still given a slight relief, and a touch of genuine whiteness entered Bai Chi's eyes.

I'm about to be...seen naked.

Ruri became dazed. Although she couldn't see Bai Chi in her consciousness space, Bai Chi seemed to be everywhere. The light falling on her body from all directions was like his gaze, and it was also scalding hot.

"I see." Bai Chi's voice rang out again. "I have received your sincerity."

The synchronization rate began to rise.

……

"Pfft" sound.

Liang Rong pierced the knight's chest, and the knight's body fell limply to the ground.

ended.

Liang Rong smiled.

Honestly, I thought he was some kind of formidable opponent, but he turned out to be so easily defeated, like a speed bump.

But that's fine, at least the battle didn't cause too much of a commotion, and he still had enough time to leave.

"It seems your offensive is over."

A neutral voice came from in front of him, and Liang Rong's body suddenly stiffened.

He immediately looked up and saw the black knight standing in front of him, completely unharmed.

"You...how is this possible?!" Liang Rong exclaimed in shock. "I clearly already...what is this?!"

As Liang Rong spoke, he looked down and his eyes met those of a strange, dark figure.

This is a vengeful spirit of shadowy mist, similar to those used to obscure Liang Rong's vision before, but unlike them, this one is much larger and has already taken on a physical form.

Liang Rong's arm was firmly wedged into the body of the vengeful spirit.

In other words, the body he just pierced was not the knight's true form, but this vengeful spirit!?
But when did they change positions?! Why didn't I notice at all?!

Just as Liang Rong was in shock, he heard a sharp whistling sound carried by the wind again. He suddenly raised his head and saw a scene that he would never forget.

The black mist and vengeful spirits that he had previously dispersed were now surging in from all directions. They were like little devils emerging from hell, making faces at Liang Rong, baring their sharp teeth, and making ear-piercing noises, before returning to the knight's body one by one.

The knight's armor grew even darker, while his red eyes shone even brighter.

This scene sent chills down Liang Rong's spine, and he realized that this was the other person's true nature.

"It's time to put an end to this," the other party said.

"No, no! You can't!" Liang Rong roared, "You can't kill me."

Because he was afraid of making too much noise and being discovered by the police, Liang Rong had not used his full strength until now, but he realized that if he did not go all out, he would really die here.

But he will soon realize that it is too late.

When he tried to pull his hand away from the vengeful spirit in front of him, he found that he couldn't.

The vengeful spirit seemed to come alive, laughing as it climbed onto Liang Rong's body, while simultaneously sprouting more black hands that reached out to grab him.

"Get out of here! Get out of here!"

Liang Rong roared loudly, but to no avail. The vengeful spirit seemed to be able to absorb his power, dissolving all his struggles into the mist.

Just as he finally found the trick and managed to free his hand from the vengeful spirit, there was another "snap" and his wrist was seized again.

But this time, it was no longer a vengeful spirit that controlled him.

Liang Rong raised his head and met those deep red eyes that were so close to his.

Bai Chi was also watching him, and the synchronization rate in his eyes was rapidly changing until the last wisp of black mist returned to his body, at which point it finally froze.

Synchronization rate: 40%

Unlock Tier 1 Ultimate Skill: Shadow Mist Knight's Lance

So Bai Chi grasped the vengeful spirit from before, and just as Liang Rong was about to launch a final attack on Bai Chi in a fit of rage, he transformed the vengeful spirit into a jet-black spear.

Then he pierced Liang Rong's heart.
