Chapter 1489: Chapter 478: Fierce Battle Gamer_2

Game paused, this was a prompt Wen Xishu often saw when playing games in his past life.

Of course, in this life, he directly saw the pause option.

Not only pause, but he even saw the "Main Menu Options."

New Game.

Continue Game.

Developer Studio.

CG Gallery.

Game Settings.

Soon, a mysterious icon pointed towards the game settings.

In the settings, there were audio settings, video settings, display settings, game settings, auxiliary options... and other menus.

Although Wen Xishu couldn’t move, he could see that there was an incredibly formidable individual manipulating this game.

"Brother, it looks like the final battle is coming. I can’t help you much. Even if I could open the backend, I can’t weaken Lu Mingxuan, because this isn’t my game. I can only unlock a few things."

6...

Wen Xishu didn’t expect that Scorpio had kept an ace up his sleeve; this was truly cheating.

"Brother, you should know that even if you defeat the boss in the game, the unlocked ending might not be good. So I can let you see some future scenes, which are the results you can achieve based on your current actions. Once you’re in the game, you’ll naturally understand what I mean."

"Of course... Lu Mingxuan is very strong, brother, do you know who my most favored subordinates are?"

"One is named John, the true master of Wind City, whom you defeated to achieve the best ending, and the other is Lu Mingxuan. I also hope you can achieve the best ending, brother."

"We’ll meet again after you win. But if you lose... that’s not bad either. I can justifiably turn you into a character in my game."

So, whether he won or Lu Mingxuan won, Scorpio would not lose.

Wen Xishu noticed that indeed, Scorpio did not give himself any special privileges that would affect the balance of the battle, but only entered a special code in the settings interface—the game settings.

From this, one could see that Scorpio truly dominated the gaming realm.

Lu Mingxuan’s game had already trapped many people, and none of the Red Houses in Deep City dared to approach here.

But as for Scorpio, he invaded as he wished. This act of inputting his own cheat code into other games had already showcased Scorpio’s prowess.

Moreover, Scorpio himself wasn’t even in the building; perhaps everything was brought by the Scorpion Knife.

With the backend code implanted, Wen Xishu could now see two endings:

The first ending, with a probability of sixty-eight percent.

Wen Xishu is defeated, relegated to a special Defender above the ninetieth floor.

The second ending, where Wen Xishu as the player wins... he leaves alone, becoming a legend of the Infinite Building. Just like a Gladiator clearing the arena, shedding the identity of a slave.

Undoubtedly, the second ending was better, but Wen Xishu seemed still unsatisfied upon seeing this ending.

Pause ends, the elevator doors open, and the final level arrives.

...

...

When Wen Xishu stepped onto the 100th floor, the scene before him was not a grand hall, but a gigantic and cluttered game development studio.

The walls were bare with cables and data conduits exposed, dozens of floating screens displaying real-time surveillance of each floor in the building, some fixed on critical moments of Wen Xishu’s past cycles.

In the center was a console piled with design drafts; Lu Mingxuan sat with his back to the entrance, seated in a gaming chair, wearing a crumpled T-shirt, hair in a mess.

But the next moment... the surroundings transformed into a massive, gem-glimmering battle arena.

And Lu Mingxuan’s gaming chair had turned into a magnificent throne.

"Are you ready, Challenger? This will be your final battle as a player."

Unlike the somewhat timid and good-natured persona of Lu Mingxuan, this moment’s Lu Mingxuan was quite like a king in the game.

He no longer wore the crumpled T-shirt but donned armor that radiated light.

Wen Xishu fired without a word with his hand raised.

With maximum life value damage and a Divine Artifact with infinite bullets that auto-close the distance, no matter how high the final boss’s defense was, it dared not take the hit.

This bullet flew directly towards Lu Mingxuan’s forehead.

It was Lu Mingxuan’s first time encountering a Challenger with such high weapon enhancements and abnormal stats.

But...

He didn’t care.

Time seemed to flow extremely slowly for him.

Scenes akin to dodging bullets in The Matrix unfolded. Not only that, but scenes of Vex’s teleportation dodging from Resident Evil also appeared.

"Do you plan to deal with me using this trash?"

Lu Mingxuan’s figure was constantly flickering.

Wen Xishu kept shooting, but the bullets couldn’t hit Lu Mingxuan at all.

As Lu Mingxuan continuously dodged bullets, his figure constantly disappeared and then reappeared closer...

Wen Xishu could guess Lalumxu Mingxuan intended to subdue him in close quarters; using melee against his firearm. After all, given Lu Mingxuan’s displayed speed, even at seven steps away, guns were slow; within seven steps, only slower.

However, Wen Xishu did not give up, keeping his focus on shooting.

Even when Lu Mingxuan’s figure kept getting closer, he continued to repeatedly shoot, shoot, shoot.

He was observing Lu Mingxuan’s skills and evasion routes, planning to make a preemptive attack.

When Lu Mingxuan was just one meter away from Wen Xishu, Wen Xishu suddenly spoke:

"In the game, have your parents become eternal?"

A psychological attack had always been Wen Xishu’s ultimate move against the Obsessed.

That sentence caused Lu Mingxuan to falter momentarily, and in the next instant, the bullet finally hit Lu Mingxuan. Lu Mingxuan’s hand was about to touch Wen Xishu but ultimately retracted due to the hit.
