Chapter 267 Sunk Costs
Hearing her words, Levi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"What is the Domain Life Device?"
"The independent world created by beings higher than the Chosen One is called a domain. In the past, when humans had just taken refuge underground, scientific rules were mastered by private individuals, and basic social order and moral concepts were still in the process of returning to the surface."
"In order to prevent scientists from killing civilians or killing each other and endangering the world, the three owners built two towers, one for matter and one for spirit. At the same time, they merged their domains into an exile space, half of which was a reflection of the central city, and the other half was a disordered wormhole turbulence."
"The authority to control this domain has always been controlled by the royal family. After I was created by the Blood Party, due to the provisions of the Three Laws, the authority was automatically transferred to me. The entire center is under surveillance and control. Once a Chosen level threat that affects the entire city appears, the domain generation device will be activated, sucking in the rule controllers in the limited area, and exiling them to the wormhole turbulence with the other Chosen."
After hearing her explanation, Levi now understood that there was someone watching over the Chosen One.
No wonder ordinary people like the An family and the royal family still exist. If there were no relevant constraints, an anti-imperialist party like Tian'en, which has several chosen ones and quite a number of scientists, would be unable to do anything to them.
Just when Li Wei learned about these things from 627, Jiang Li also took action.
He stared at Levi who was flying in the air and raised one hand. The next second, the dozens of meters high building next to him collapsed!
Huge smoke and dust were swept up by the strong wind, carrying small pieces of stone, and raging around!
All the metal supporting the entire building structure now gathered around Jiang Li!
The steel twisted and deformed in the air, all turning into irregular sharp weapons, as if cutting through the wind and fog, breaking through the lightning tornado surrounding Levi, trying to cut Levi into pieces on the spot!
However, when the clouds gathered and squeezed each other, and the friction between them reached its peak, a terrifying pillar of lightning poured down from the sky!
Magnetism generates electricity, and electricity generates magnetism.
Jiang Li can manipulate metal through magnetism, and Levi can also use lightning to generate an opposite magnetic field to eliminate his control!
And it is very obvious that Levi's control over the atmosphere is much stronger than Jiang Li!
In his pocket, the light stone brought out from the sun emitted a dazzling light. The most fundamental rules of the atmosphere were in him. Although the authority he obtained was only meteorology, other atmospheric authorities were also greatly improved!
In an instant, Le Wei increased the air pressure where Jiang Li was!
The limit that a normal human being can withstand is 18 atmospheres of pressure, but the pressure that Jiang Li is bearing at this moment is hundreds or thousands of times this number!
It was visible to the naked eye that Jiang Li's face had taken on a strange purple-red color, and his eyes became more ferocious. After the thunder that fell from the sky eliminated his control over the metal, he took off his glasses and revealed a sinister look!
A force field began to form with him as the center and instantly spread to an area of exactly one kilometer in radius.
In this space, magnetic force spreads throughout every corner. All the metal on the ground and in the buildings has been pulled out, surrounding Levi in the middle!
Of course Levi could see that Jiang Li was also restraining himself. He obviously understood to what extent the Chosen One could mobilize in this city. Once this scale was exceeded, the Shadow Prime Minister would not care who you were, whether you were a friend or an enemy, and would immediately absorb you out of the domain life device.
Therefore, he could only try his best to integrate the power he held into the smallest scope and seek maximum damage.
But Levi's control over the atmosphere is simply unreasonable.
He had clearly always acted like a biologist before, but at this moment, he was like a veteran who had studied meteorology for many years, and he could control the flow of gas and changes in clouds with ease!
Almost at the moment when Jiang Li unfolded the magnetic field, the hurricane brought by the rushing air flow disrupted the magnetic field that was originally stably controlled by Jiang Li!
At the same time, all the metals seemed to have lost their control over them in a short period of time, and lost their readiness to attack!
This made Jiang Li's face look even uglier. He could only shrink his original attack into defense. But when the figure in mid-air with lightning all over his body fell towards him like a god, Jiang Li felt threatened at that moment!
Where the hell did this thing come from?
In front of him, he advanced from the third level of biology to the Chosen One of Atmosphere. Then, just after becoming the Chosen One, his control over the rules even surpassed him, who had been the Chosen One for four years!
"boom!"
The reality did not allow Jiang Li to think too much, as Levi, bathed in electric light, had already hit him!
In his hand, he held the sword that was shining with dazzling light, and the originally black blade could not be seen at all. He chopped down at the top of Jiang Li's head!
All the hidden tricks to deal with the Chosen One have been forced out, and Levi is now very unhappy. He is always a hamster party no matter what game he plays. There are some precious consumable items that he would never be willing to use unless he is sure that they can be replenished later.
Now that these three minutes of destiny had been used up, he would feel a little better only if he killed Jiang Li in front of him and triggered another evolution recovery!
The lightning lingering on the blade dragged out a long blue-purple blade light! Jiang Li's figure was completely immersed in it! The hard concrete ground also suddenly cracked under the aftermath of this attack, and a huge horizontal groove appeared!
Jiang Li was completely submerged by the lightning. Not only that, as Li Wei pressed in front of him, the strong wind that seemed to be able to tear everything apart also surrounded him. The hurricane was raging, lightning and thunder were flashing, and other places in the center were still peaceful and quiet, but within this radius of only one kilometer, a scene like the end of the world appeared!
Outside the strong wind, the three chosen ones from the Science and Discipline Institute who had arrived at the scene in accordance with the order of the Shadow Prime Minister also saw the scene before them.
The chosen one named Li Guang muttered as he looked at the clouds above his head that were constantly spinning and thundering.
"Magnetics should be Jiang Li from the Royal Academy of Sciences. What about meteorology? Where did this atmospheric heavenly chosen one come from? Has the mayor of the Western Region come to the Central Government recently?"
Zhao Mingda shook his head solemnly.
"Recently, the Central District and the East District have been plagued by problems. Because of Green Day's problems, those people in the West District are too busy trying to avoid suspicion and will not come to the Central District to cause trouble."
"Are we just going to watch here now?"
"According to the response of the Shadow Prime Minister when the Green Suns raided the Central Eight Years ago, there is no need for us to intervene before the intensity escalates. Jiang Li and the other person seem to be very clear about the Chosen Restriction Agreement, and they have no intention of being sucked into the Domain Life Device."
At this moment, in the center of the storm, Jiang Li had actually changed his mind!
Before Levi chopped down with the knife, he tried to control the weapon in Levi's hand through magnetism as quickly as possible, but in just a moment, he discovered that the knife in Levi's hand did not contain any metal components and could not be controlled by him at all.
So, in desperation, he changed his strategy and gathered all the metal around him in front of himself, trying to block the knife!
But the blade with swaying electric light cut through all the metal in front of Jiang Li in half like a hot knife cutting butter. Just when Jiang Li was about to use this momentum to chop his skull, he suddenly put his hands together and grabbed the falling blade at the critical moment!
Blood flowed from his palms. The strong wind tore apart his gold-edged robe, cutting his flesh like a knife, making him suffer the pain as if being cut into pieces!
Li Wei still held the hilt of the knife tightly, trying to push it down and wrestling with him. Jiang Li obviously felt that he could not bear it anymore.
He gritted his teeth and looked at Levi, who was bathed in lightning and close to him, as if he was looking at the murderer of his father, with hatred in his eyes.
"Just wait for me! Just wait for me!"
When he said this, the magnetic field that was originally limited to a radius of one kilometer suddenly began to expand!
The power that was originally deliberately restricted began to be released indiscriminately!
Those central citizens outside who did not have time to evacuate all suffered unexpected disasters. Under such a mighty force of nature, no one could survive, and they did not even have a chance to recall their lives before they died!
With such power, Levi was finally pushed away by the huge repulsive force. He could even feel that the elements that made up his body were affected by magnetism. But this was not Jiang Li's counterattack at all, but his attempt to use the domain-generating device to escape!
He had already realized that he could not do anything to Levi today. If he continued to waste time, his life might be in danger.
Then he could just use the domain-generating device to escape. As long as he exceeded the prescribed limits, the Shadow Prime Minister would directly absorb him into it. Unless Levi was willing to remove the limits and follow him in, there was nothing he could do to him!
Li Wei naturally also noticed Jiang Li's intention.
He took a look at the remaining time for evolution and recycling on the player information, and there was less than thirty seconds. With Jiang Li's level, he could actually drag out these thirty seconds, and then Levi would fall from the chosen one and be at his mercy. However, he never expected that Levi's chosen one would have a time limit just like Ultraman's timer.
But even so, Li Wei was unwilling to let Jiang Li, this disgusting guy, get away. He already had sunk costs, and if he couldn't kill Jiang Li, it would be a pure loss!
At this time, a dark vortex like a black hole had appeared behind Jiang Li!
He opened his arms and allowed the suction generated by the vortex to engulf his body. He did not resist at all, but just stared at Levi with cold hatred.
"Just wait for me! Sun Wei! Even if you become the chosen one, so what? I will have plenty for you in the future."
Before he could finish half of his harsh words, Levi, who was floating in the air facing him, took out from his arms without any nonsense. The gun body was dark red, the barrel was long and narrow, and there was a strange "Z"-shaped lightning logo on the handle!
At this moment, Jiang Li, whose back had already touched the black hole, contracted his pupils. The expression on his face was frozen, and he was stunned like a wooden man!
Levi pulled the trigger without hesitation!
In the magazine with 6 empty slots, one of the golden bullets that was almost fully condensed was suddenly fired out from the barrel!
That light occupied Jiang Li's entire pupil in an instant!
