Shadow Hack - Chapter 449
Chapter 449: Data Doesn’t Represent Everything
Translator: Mercurial_ Editor: DarkGem
If Li Yunmu summoned the eleven shadows and joined together with them, he would only increase his chances to fifty-fifty. On top of that, this percentage was assuming that among the substitute core disciples chasing after him, there were no old monsters of any region.
Otherwise, as long as there were two or three of them like the Wang Hu of the fifth residential region, Li Yunmu would have basically no chance at winning.
He only had one choice and that was to flee.
“System, scan their strength. This time, don’t hold back and go all out to scan them.”
In a split second, Li Yunmu made his decision. The system no longer needed to be careful. Since he was being hunted, trying to conceal any sort of secret would just be moronic.
If he died, then even if his secret remained concealed, what would be the use? Everything would still be finished.
Moreover, the Origin World was huge and full of extraordinary things. Li Yunmu didn’t believe that because of him revealing the system’s scan, all the formidable powers and organizations of the world would begin chasing after him.
Sure enough, after receiving his specific command, the system didn’t oppose and quickly began to scan the people getting closer to him with full efficiency.
The ten something people chasing after him felt an odd sensation, like something was unreal. An unfathomable spiritual fluctuation enveloped the group and seemed to completely see through everyone in it.
This sort of sensation was naturally very uncomfortable. The people couldn’t help but subconsciously slow the giant beast which resembled an azure dragon.
Li Yunmu wasn’t paying much attention to it. He instead quickly checked through the information received from the system’s scan. The focus of the scan had been the enormous beast on which the more than ten people were riding.
The four-winged azure dragon beast belonged to the mid level of enormous beast grade. It was known for its mild nature and fast speed. Among the enormous beasts of North Blue, it was considered one of the fastest in the water. It belonged to one of the eight great elders of Blue Moon Island, Zhang Xi.
[Evaluation: Since this enormous beast isn’t being commanded by Zhang Xi personally and doesn’t possess a brutal nature, this four-winged azure dragon beast should only be their mount and won’t take the initiative to join the operation.]
After receiving the information about the enormous beast, Li Yunmu breathed out a huge sigh of relief. Of those chasing after him, he was most anxious about the enormous beast.
It has to be known that any enormous beast was equivalent to a great flux master. Regardless of Li Yunmu’s combat strength, he couldn’t possibly step across a realm and defeat it.
Fortunately, the azure dragon-shaped beast was known for its mild temperament. Its master wasn’t personally commanding it, so the ten or so substitute core disciples couldn’t possibly order it to do anything.
From this, it was clear that Zhang Yuan’s father didn’t possess any extraordinary strength. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have subdued a beast known for its mild temperament. This was a clear reflection of his lack of self-confidence.
But when the system showed the information about the ten or so people chasing after him, Li Yunmu’s face sank. What he feared had happened.
In the information sent by the system, the first person on the list was called Fiend. Obviously, it wasn’t his true name, but rather a nickname in Blue Moon Sect or perhaps a name given to him based on his actions.
“Fiend, residential region three, master of third room. Flux energy strength one hundred and fifty points, flesh body strength forty-seven oxen…”
Just this bit of information was enough for Li Yunmu to sense the malice of Zhang Yuan’s father. The other party didn’t have proof that Li Yunmu had truly killed his son and didn’t have any true facts about this matter, so he couldn’t utilize the core disciples of the sect to capture him.
But the people who came because of Zhang Yuan’s father’s heavy reward gave Li Yunmu grave sense of danger.
An old monster from third region… If Li Yunmu didn’t use his hidden cards, then Fiend’s strength alone would be enough to fight against him. The other’s flux energy strength was one hundred and fifty points, which was twenty points more than what Li Yunmu had. However, the strength of Li Yunmu’s flesh was higher when compared to him.
“De Zhi, residential region second, rank fifth. Flux energy strength one hundred and sixty-two points. Physical strength, fifty-three oxen…”
“Wang Tongming, residential region three, rank sixth. Flux energy strength one hundred and fifty-two points. Physical strength forty-five oxen…”
“Demon Flame, residential region five, rank first. Flux energy strength one hundred and seventy-five, physical strength fifty oxen…”
Li Yunmu had barely looked through the information of the first four people when he decided to not look through the others. The front four people were all old monsters who had come from the top five residential regions.
All of them belonged to the top ten most powerful people of their region, and none of them were weaker when compared to him. It could be clearly seen that this group of people hunting after him were all well known figures in their respective residential regions. Li Yunmu was certain that even if he used all his shadows, he still wouldn’t stand any chance in a fight against them.
It has to be known that although the strength of the shadows was synchronized with Li Yunmu’s base strength, some powers with unique nature weren’t transferred over.
For example, only his main body could use the strength of the heavenly world, the three parts of Azure Dragon Deity Suit which could utilize the azure dragon’s deadly might, or the deity level power source, flame thunder energy.
All three types of powers couldn’t be used by the shadows. On top of that, the average combat experience of the shadows also paled in front of him. Because of that, Li Yunmu’s chances of victory didn’t even surpass 10%.
Sure enough, the system quickly released a warning based on previously collected data.
[Even if the four-winged beast is ruled out and host uses all his trump cards, host still doesn’t have any chance of winning. The system suggests that host gives up all of hope of combat and escapes quickly.]
“So what?”
Li Yunmu had anticipated this, but if he cowardly escaped like that, it would be against his character. Still, he hadn’t expected that the damned Zhang Yuan had such an hidden identity.
Since Zhang Xi was determined to take his life, then… Li Yunmu had to cause some trouble for him so as to let him know that he wasn’t just a pig waiting to be slaughtered by him.
Li Yunmu narrowed his eyes and turned around to look at the people chasing after him. Those people noticed that he wasn’t fleeing anymore, but calmly standing on the water and stared at him with astonishment on their faces.
[Host, what are you doing?]
System sensed Li Yunmu’s plan and immediately issued an intense warning.
“Nothing, I only want to slice a bit of meat from these greedy predators while testing whether my Ghostly Evasion Substitution is as formidable in practice as it sounds on paper.”
The next instant, Li Yunmu ignored the warning of the system and focused all of his attention on the incoming people.
Suddenly, a pearl with the projection of a green dragon floated out from his chest!
At the same time, a battlesuit appeared around his body. Azure dragon gauntlets, leg guards as well as the black gold ghost king armor which had been shattered by the world punishment of the Origin World!
Although it had suffered that, it had been long restored by the world power.
As long as all pieces of the armor were in his heavenly world, Li Yunmu who was the master of that world could utilize his world power and gather all pieces to restore them completely.
This required only time and world power. In his heavenly world, he was a god.
“Come, you want to capture me and obtain heavy rewards, but that’s going to happen only if you have enough lives…”
The next instant, Li Yunmu who ignored the system’s warning burst forth like a green missile over the surface of ocean, rushing toward the ten or so hunters.
