Bang.

The old version dinosaur body suddenly exploded into a pulp of flesh, and a silvery-white sphere appeared in mid-air. About half a second later, the new version dinosaur body also exploded into a pulp of flesh.

Lin Ye sat in the sports car without moving recklessly. This silvery-white sphere that suddenly appeared in mid-air was clearly some kind of rule-based object. If he acted rashly before figuring out the rules, he might also be blown to pieces.

Victoria also didn't move. She looked at the sphere in the sky, thinking about how to deal with this thing.

"Don't move."

Seeing Xiao Mei preparing to drive, Lin Ye stopped her action. Driving now was meaningless and would only bear risks.

But Xiao Mei didn't stop. A flash of determination passed through her eyes. She intended to use her own body to test the sphere's function for Lin Ye.

After all, she was Lin Ye's driver. How could she let the boss protect the driver?

Xiao Mei pressed the accelerator to the floor. The sports car suddenly accelerated, but no matter how fast the car went, the sphere still hovered in mid-air, not even changing its distance.

Lin Ye didn't stop Xiao Mei again. Facing something that could instantly destroy the dinosaur bodies, since the other party had made a choice risking death, what he should do wasn't to veto them, but to respond to that resolve.

A large number of parasitic organisms approached from all directions. The parasitic network began operating rapidly. Lin Ye carefully collected and analyzed the information released by the sphere.

However, the first thing to go wrong wasn't Xiao Mei, but the sports car beneath them.

In just an instant, the sports car completely collapsed, its various parts decomposed into more primitive states. Lin Ye repeatedly experienced this process in the parasitic network. He gradually understood the car's collapse process and deduced the sphere's general operating principle.

After understanding the sphere's operating principle, Lin Ye didn't hesitate at all. He directly used the Teleportation Card, pulling Xiao Mei, whose body was about to collapse, and Victoria through the emerald green portal that appeared before them.

On the other side of the portal was a brown beach and a boundless lead-gray sea. At first glance, one could see countless broken corpses floating in the sea, but if you looked again, you'd find nothing in the seawater, only that deep gray darkness.

The portal closed. The sphere didn't follow them over.

"That sphere analyzes the basic structure of creatures or objects when they move, and destroys the analyzed things after the analysis ends. It's a very troublesome rule-based creation. Although not impossible to deal with, handling it is very troublesome. Better to just run away first."

Lin Ye took out some biological flesh and blood, repairing Xiao Mei's body. If she had stayed there a little longer, even Lin Ye couldn't have saved her.

"I'm sorry! I ruined your sports car!"

Xiao Mei felt much more comfortable on her body. Before being pulled through the portal by Lin Ye, she really felt like she was about to die, just like that dinosaur, dying from complete bodily collapse.

She was scared. After all, she was still young and didn't want to die like this, but she didn't regret the choice she made earlier.

"It's fine. It should still be repairable. And this isn't your problem—it was the sphere's owner who destroyed my sports car. You don't need to apologize."

After the sports car collapsed, Lin Ye obtained the damaged Luxury Sports Car Card.

Regarding the sphere side, Lin Ye would naturally make them pay the price.

"What should we do now? That sphere is probably the method of some tenth-order spiritual energy user. There are many tenth-order spiritual energy users like that here. And that sphere will likely chase us soon. We can't use system cards to run away every time. You probably don't have many of those cards, right?"

Victoria had cooperated with Lin Ye before. Compared to Lin Ye, she wasn't the type very good at making plans.

"We need to delay a little time..."

Lin Ye suddenly turned to look at the beach not far away, where stood a man with various models of knives inserted all over his body.

The other party was also a tenth-order spiritual energy user.

The man stood there silently. He looked at Lin Ye, slowly pulling out a short knife inserted in his abdomen.

Lin Ye felt his own abdomen being pierced, at the same position where the man pulled out the short knife.

This kind of wound wasn't a problem for Lin Ye, especially since this body wasn't his true form at all. But he had a premonition: if he let the man pull out a few more knives, he might very well die here.

Victoria noticed Lin Ye's condition. She was just about to act when she saw Lin Ye insert a knife formed from flesh and blood Alienation into the wound. The knife model was exactly the same as the one the other party pulled out.

The man opened his mouth, revealing a malicious smile. He didn't care at all about Lin Ye's action. This kind of probing was meaningless because once the enemy entered his rhythm, he was invincible.

Lin Ye showed a friendly smile. He pointed at the man's abdomen, reminding him to take a look.

The man lowered his gaze. He saw an unbelievable scene.

A blood-colored knife grew from his abdomen. That knife was currently moving constantly like a living creature, but before seeing it, he hadn't noticed this thing at all.

The man reached out to pull out that knife, but just before his fingers touched it, he suddenly stopped his movement.

"You want to trick me into pulling the knife out? There's actually nothing there, right?"

The man said in a very certain tone.

"Your combat method using rituals really opened my eyes, but you don't think only you are proficient in ritual studies, do you? In your ritual, I'm indeed doomed, but what if I conduct another ritual? Two rituals influencing each other—your body already has my weapon inserted into it, yet you still think it's just an illusion."

Few people could defeat Lin Ye in areas he excelled at, and those who did usually didn't end well.

"...You can't trick me."

The man was already shaken, but if he admitted what Lin Ye said, he would definitely die.

"Then why don't you pull out that knife inserted in your head? If I'm really tricking you, just pulling out that knife would solve me. If I'm not tricking you, you could also commit suicide by pulling out that knife, since the ritual has already ended.

Of course, if you're unwilling to believe in your own skills, then pretend I said nothing."

Lin Ye smiled, inviting the other party to act.

The man's breathing gradually became rapid. He had once used similar methods to torture and kill many enemies. Perhaps now it was his turn.

"I don't believe you could see through my ritual so quickly! That's simply impossible!"

The man fiercely pulled out the knife inserted in his head.

Pale pink liquid sprayed from the wound. The man fell to the ground without a sound. He couldn't even leave last words.

"Idiot. Of course I couldn't see through your ritual that quickly, but interfering with your ritual was way too simple. If you hadn't killed yourself, you could have wasted a bit more of my time."

Lin Ye pulled out the flesh and blood knife inserted in his abdomen. The ritual ended, and only now did the wound begin to heal.
