In the end of the ice age, I hoarded tens of billions of supplies

fifteen days later.

That’s right, fifteen days. A full fifteen days have passed.

From the outside world's perspective, only a day and a half had passed, and even the battles in some of the lovelorn places had already ended.

During this period, Zhang Yi never left his house.

This world is too big. If someone hides himself on purpose, it would be difficult for the other party to find him.

Zhang Yi was too lazy to show up to give Merlin a chance.

It was only ten days, and he felt that the time was about right.

So he put away his Tianhai Fortress and reappeared in the huge green passage outside.

He decided to go and see how Merlin was living.

Zhang Yi wasn't sure where Merlin was, but the green plants above the passage gave him a clue.

During this period, Merlin's main food was the wild fruits here.

Because there are no animals here, not even insects.

Wild fruits should be the only edible food. Zhang Yi has also done a brief study on that kind of wild fruit. According to the analysis of the intelligent system, it is indeed edible, but the taste is really not very good, similar to bitter gourd.

It’s good to eat it occasionally to lose weight, but if you eat this stuff three times a day... Ugh!

Zhang Yi couldn't help but dry heaving.

Based on the changes in the plants on the rock wall, Zhang Yi could roughly determine Merlin's movements.

And it's not just the plants that are changing.

Zhang Yi flew towards the sky, and along the way he saw many holes blasted open on the rock wall.

Apparently, Merlin could no longer control himself in order to find his location.

For half a month, I had no one to accompany me. I could only rely on the nutrient solution in my combat uniform and these fruits that tasted like bitter melon to provide energy every day. It was really more painful than being in prison!

The passage is very long, but if Zhang Yi is determined to find someone, it won’t be too difficult.

He moved forward and finally found Merlin on a platform after searching for a long time.

When he saw Merlin again, Zhang Yi felt that his face had changed.

He lost a lot of weight and looked pale, as if his entire face had turned green from eating too much bitter melon.

His spirits were not very good, but his body did not show any signs of weakness. As a special forces veteran, he knew how to stay in good combat condition.

It was just the psychological blow that made him appear depressed.

"You are really good at surviving! How about surrendering?"

Zhang Yi smiled and said to Merlin: "You haven't had an easy time these days, have you? It seems that even if I replicate my abilities, I can't make your life easy."

"On the other hand, I eat well, sleep well, and feel very comfortable."

When Merlin saw Zhang Yi, his eyes glowed green.

I don’t know if it’s because I haven’t eaten meat for a long time or if I hate Zhang Yi too much!

"chaos!!!"

He almost gritted his teeth and rushed towards Zhang Yi with all his might!

Zhang Yi had already prepared himself and quickly dodged to prevent him from getting close.

"Hey, you better kill yourself! Look at me, I can still continue to play this game with you!"

"Don't you understand yet? What exactly is this trial testing?"

Zhang Yi said confidently: "That's the ability to survive! Obviously I'm better than you."

Merlin's condition at this moment was indeed not good.

As an outstanding alien, his physical and mental qualities are perfect.

For half a month, he had no one to talk to and could not eat normally. His mental state only showed slight fluctuations. It was a miracle that he did not collapse.

However, when you have endured a long period of pain and found that your enemy looks fine and appears in front of you with a grin, you probably won't be able to bear it anymore.

"Shh!"

Before Zhang Yi finished his words, a long silver light appeared from his hand like the Milky Way!

It was a huge lightsaber, with surging energy rushing straight towards Zhang Yi!

King Arthur's ability, the holy sword Excalibur!

"Sure enough, you can use the abilities of multiple people at the same time!"

Zhang Yi looked at him dimly and spoke.

However, it seems that there are limitations to its use.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be possible to have infinite abilities?

Zhang Yi's guess was close to Merlin's true ability.

As a court magician, he called the ability of [divination of divine authority] a hat trick.

He can replicate any ability displayed by every alien he sees.

The strength of the ability depends on the strength of Merlin's own supernatural powers.

Even replicating the abilities of an Alpha-level mutant could evolve into Bishop-level abilities in his hands.

However, when he replicates the abilities of a new alien, the previously replicated abilities will automatically disappear.

Only the previous capability will be retained.

In other words, he can use the abilities of up to two different mutants at the same time.

Before entering the battlefield, in order to maintain his absolute combat power, he replicated King Arthur's [Power of the King].

That's why he can use the holy sword.

Excalibur's sword light formed a direct impact on Zhang Yi's dimensional gate!

The king's authority indiscriminately weakens the abilities of all extraordinary people, which will naturally cause the defense of Zhang Yi's dimensional gate to become weak.

This is why Merlin has been trying to close the distance between himself and Zhang Yi, and then forcibly collide with him using the dimensional gate.

Because at this time, he can use [The Authority of the King] plus [All Things in the Universe] to tear apart Zhang Yi's defense head-on!

But Merlin didn't expect that Zhang Yi never fought a battle without confidence, and he just chose to slip away, and what was so hateful was that he hid for half a month!

I still had a good rest for half a month with good food, drink and sleep!

Zhang Yi felt the power of King Arthur's sword. After the dimensional gate was weakened, it shattered into several layers like glass!

"Interesting, this also allows me to experience King Arthur's abilities in advance!"

Zhang Yi laughed secretly in his heart, then retreated at the speed of light.

"I feel relieved to see you so energetic! See you in a year!"

Having said that, Zhang Yi retreated directly, dropped a large number of smoke bombs and flash bombs, and disappeared.

With his speed, if he disappeared from Merlin's sight for just one second, Merlin would never be able to find him again.

After hearing what Zhang Yi said, Merlin was really panicked!

a year?

One year! ! !

"Chaos, I'm on Zao Ba! Come back here and fight me fair and square!"

He is obviously an extremely gentlemanly man, but he was forced to swear by Zhang Yi!

There's no way, gentlemen are also afraid of hooligans!

Zhang Yi is not afraid of loneliness.

The most important thing about the ability [Escape into the Void] is the ability to endure loneliness.

What's more, he carried a lot of supplies with him, so even if he was alone, it would be a little boring at best.

But for Merlin, that means eating bitter melon for a whole year!

Zhang Yi listened to Merlin's grief-stricken and desperate howls, and chose to leave without looking back.

It's not that he didn't have a way to fight Merlin. In fact, he had thought about how to win this duel.

But now is not the best time.

There is a sure-fire way to win, so why rush?

It would be ideal to wait until that guy's mind collapses and his body turns into dried bitter melon from eating too much bitter melon before taking action.

Of course Zhang Yi would not really wait another year.

He said this only to make Merlin's heart break further.

This is a battlefield, not an arena.

The competition is not about who has stronger combat power, but who is better adapted to the brutal jungle fighting.

At all costs, you must kill your opponent! Rather than winning.

Therefore, any means are allowed.

Zhang Yi wanted to plunge Merlin into endless despair, making him unable to eat or sleep well and extremely exhausted.

In the end, even without Zhang Yi killing him, he wanted to die, and that was the best outcome.

In the following time, Zhang Yi disappeared into the darkness again.

He originally had another tactic, which was to keep appearing and disturb Merlin when he was resting.

However, considering that Merlin also possesses the ability of time and space, it is possible that he can find Zhang Yi's location and launch a counterattack.

Zhang Yi would not allow any accidents to happen, so he hid himself obediently and did not give Merlin any chance.

Merlin doesn't think so.

The supplies he carried with him had been used up, and he could only survive by eating bitter melon every day.

Every night, he needed to be on guard against Zhang Yi's sudden attack.

The feeling of loneliness and emptiness completely enveloped him, and because he had been unable to consume normal protein and other nutrients for a long time, his mood became worse and worse.

This wait lasted another full month.

Until Merlin was completely desperate, he even really believed that Zhang Yi would not appear until a year later.

And by that time, he might have become a savage.

During this period of time, many trial participants outside have completed their trials and entered standby mode, waiting for the arrival of the next level.

And they had to wait there patiently for others to finish.

However, Zhang Yi is not an isolated case.

Because it is an unlimited life-and-death duel, such long-lasting battles are not uncommon.

For example, the battlefield between King Arthur and Hela.

King Arthur was caught in a similar situation as Merlin.

His sword could easily tear Hela's body into pieces and turn her into a flying blood rain, but no matter what he did, he could not truly kill Hela.

Tear her body apart and she can quickly be resurrected through a pool of blood.

The damaged body will return to its original state after a period of repair.

It seems to be just as Hela said, she is truly immortal here and it is difficult for her to die.

Merlin and King Arthur were both in an unsolvable dilemma.

It's not that they are weak and can't beat their opponents. It's that their opponents are so powerful that they can't find a way out.

……

Another month later, Zhang Yi appeared in front of Merlin again.

Merlin was terribly thin at this time. Eating vegetarian food every day was indeed not good for his physical and mental health. Zhang Yi even felt that his whole body was glowing green.

However, due to having only used that huge bitter gourd for a long time, Merlin's originally thick and smooth long hair had fallen out a lot.

He was so thin that he looked unrecognizable.

"Do you want to continue?"

Zhang Yi asked leisurely, while he spoke, holding a big elbow in his left hand.

The braised pork elbow is bright red and still steaming.

The first bite is filled with sizzling oil and meaty aroma.

Merlin's eyes almost popped out, but this second-in-command of the Knights of the Round Table was indeed no joke.

His strong willpower will not be easily worn out.
