Chapter 98: Primordial Creation of Three? No, Just Multithreading.

The Four Symbols Sealing Formation was set up. Just as the System tried to summon Vigilante A’s vital energy to target the Giant Yellowjackets, a yelp came from outside the diagram.

“Dad help!”

A familiar voice yelled out as Master Ma of Mount Indigo Monastery’s face paled.

He turned toward the voice and immediately said in shock, “How is that possible? The Truth Department’s people should be keeping an eye around here. Even if Ping Er got found out, he would’ve been protected, how could this be?”

The boy around seventeen or eighteen years of age was currently held hostage by a large scorpion. It held him in one of its pincers and lifted him into the air, its venomous stinger poised over the boy’s head, it was no wonder he shrieked.

Not only that, the scorpion spoke, “Ma Futian! Your son is in my pincers. If you value what’s most important to you, back away from the Four Symbols Formation, and go back to your Mount Indigo Monastery! Don’t try to get in my way. I will release him after you’ve done so, or else, he will have to face me, Great Toxic Scorpion, and my lethal attacks.”

Master Ma’s face was in all sorts of colors, weighing his options.

The scorpion saw his reaction and said suddenly, “Don’t worry. I am just dissatisfied with the dragons’ status as demon’s natural enemies. After fighting with it, I will ask my swarm to leave China. I can tell, I have no foothold over here, so don’t you worry my kins will make a mess!”

Master Ma looked at the other three people. The monk kept his silence, and Bodhisattva Spirit King only shook his head.

“My friends, I… I’m really at a loss…”

Vigilante A spoke up, “Just go. I did mention these monsters shall be exterminated by me and me alone.”

Master Ma was relieved. He stood up, took a bow at the three other people, leaped out of the diagram, and left to the north without looking back.

The huge scorpion waited until he was out of sight, and leaped into the ground, disappearing along with Ma Ping.

As soon as Master Ma left, Bodhisattva Spirit King’s face also twitched slightly.

He apologized to the rest and said, “I couldn’t help it, I shall take my leave as well.”

The monk shook his head, he knew exactly what was going on, “Bodhisattva, be safe.”

Bodhisattva Spirit King disappeared from his seat, but not before leaving an inconspicuous bead.

In the System Space.

Fang Ning said, “What a reversal. Soon, the monk would have to leave as well. See, I told you, it was necessary to hide our personas. Every one of them has someone or something important to take care of, and all of them are not exactly hidden. When someone who’s not afraid to use dirty tactics comes, their weak spots would be caught.”

“They are not official agencies like the Truth Department, so they can’t take major things like this. Unless they were in a life-or-death situation, they would have given up. Hey, that insect demon sounds like its target is us. Without our helpers, we’ll need to be more careful.”

The System replied, “Good. I was worried they will eat their words and steal our boss fight.”

Fang Ning said, “This diagram needs to be controlled by four people. Without the sealed space, the boss would have fled before we could fight it. We won’t be able to catch it.”

The System said, “Don’t worry, be ready for the battle.”

Fang Ning was shocked and looked at himself, saying in disbelief, “What? With my tiny arms and matchstick legs, you want me to go in and battle?”

The System said, “I don’t need you to go in, but I need you to refill your Aggro Bar. So go get out your cuckolding novels you’ve prepared last time and start reading…”

Fang Ning said, “F*ck me, I might as well go and farm a few of those giant wasps…”

The System quipped, “Aren’t you scared of the boss hidden inside the swarm?”

Fang Ning made a face that expressed his lack of will to live, and said, “I’ll read them!”

As Fang Ning had predicted, the old monk’s face twitched as well, alternating between an angry blush and a worried paleness.

He had just wanted to speak up as Vigilante A said, “Sir monk, you can leave if you need to. I bear the Will of God, so I will take them on by myself. These sneaky tactics will not sway me!”

The monk sighed and said, “There’s nothing I could do. Pardon me, I’ll leave this Four Symbols Formation Diagram to you, as a gift.”

As soon as he finished, he disappeared, leaving the diagram behind.

In the command post.

Elder Hai instructed, “Xue Feng, I need you to take over for me. Something happened in the north, Anping has already been moved away, and I will need to go soon. Remember, don’t make rash decisions. Unless the Insect Demon doubled back on his words, don’t order an assault.”

Xue Feng asked, “What if Vigilante A wasn’t able to take them on all by himself?”

Elder Hai said, “Then you’ll go in and drag him out of it. Don’t trouble our comrades. Have you mastered your Sword Handling Technique?”

Xue Feng replied, “Now that my Vitality Concentration has risen to a new height, I have mastered it a few days ago.”

Elder Hai nodded and looked at the screen one last time before he sighed and left.

Everyone looked at each other in the command post.

Someone started asking, “Originally it was a gang fight turned into one person fighting multiple enemies, can Vigilante A handle it?”

“You were wrong, it was a gang fight, and now it’s a whole gang kicking his ass… 1 ”

“The effect of the Sealed Space should fade in a little bit, right? With so many wasps attacking him, even Vigilante A would flee, I’m afraid.”

“That’s right, but then we’d be able to see Leader Xue’s power. Say, I haven’t seen his Sword Handling Technique…”

As the cacophony in the hall grew louder, someone roared, “Shut up, all of you! This is a combat situation! Do you think you’re just here to give commentaries? Do whatever you need to do!”

Immediately, the command post quietened, leaving only the sounds of keyboards, alarms, and barks of orders that reminded everyone: This is a command post and the atmosphere in here is tense.

Xue Feng ignored the noise, choosing to focus on the big screen and the development of events. He had prepared his rescue plan, after mastering the Sword Handling Technique, he was able to cross a vast distance within breaths, that was his trump card to become the Mobile Strike Force team leader.

***************

From the initial group of four people on the Four Symbols Formation Diagram, it looked empty with only Vigilante A left.

At that moment, a voice called up from below.

“Ha ha ha, what do you think? I only need to use a little trick to divide you, thanks to my old friend’s advice. I had thought to battle all of you by myself, but it’s better now. Without the Four Symbol Sealing Formation, I can multiply my wasps however I want. Today, I will have a dragon for my feast!”

Vigilante A glanced below.

From the swarm below, a face appeared. It was dark and unsightly, and it was cackling at Vigilante A.

Fang Ning thought, ‘Idiot. Sir System had always been a loner, it wouldn’t farm monsters with other people. You had only relieved him of his worries, yet you are so proud of yourself. You might have reminded Sir System to let you live for a moment longer though.’

Fang Ning asked the System suddenly, “How many threads can you utilize at once? You’ve never told me that.”

The System answered, “Host, you’ve once again become smarter, you could tell what I was about to do. Multithreading is just like human’s computer system–it depends on the hardware. With my current capacity, I could utilize five thread simultaneously, just like your proverb ‘three hearts and two minds 2 ‘.”

Fang Ning said, “I say, you look like you’re not even concerned, there must be things you were hiding from me.”

As they finished talking, three other dragon-shaped vital energy appeared behind Vigilante A. The purity and concentration of the vital energy were almost identical with the first one. After appearing, they each took their places at the south, the north, and the west.

Below the diagram, the strands of lights that encased the wasps were immediately switched with circling dragon-shaped vital energy, making the entrapment even more regal, none of the Giant Yellowjackets dared to get close.

“Dammit, this is impossible! The ultimate ability of Taoism, Primordial Creation of Three, how do you as a dragon learn it?”

The Insect Demon sounded desperate.

Fang Ning thought, ‘Look at you, this is what would happen if you don’t study. With such a small brain, you wouldn’t think about multithreading, but you should at least know about side accounts, do you have to be that extra? You even thought this was about the ultimate ability of one of the cultivation paths…’

In the command post, everyone was shocked again. They did not expect Vigilante A to call three other dragons as a backup.

However, because they were just yelled at by their superiors, everyone was quiet. To compensate, they communicated among themselves using their eyes.

Insect Demon calmed down soon after. He was a strong being, after all. He mocked, “You need to provide all four parts of the diagram, how long could you stand? I refuse to believe you would outlast us!”

Fang Ning said, “I’m sorry, maybe you should say that if you live another three to five years. Sir System cultivated vital energy through eating. It hasn’t developed inhaling Vitality yet, but there is a batch of fresh food in the System Preservation Area, two can play this game, slowly…”
