CHAPTER 550: CHAPTER 339: BETRAYAL, FURY

Beach, behind a huge rocky mountain.

Two silhouettes leaned against the rocky mountain, quietly sitting on the beach.

The body of Black Cocoon hung its head, eyes closed, slumped in place, but his restraint belt was still tightly wrapped around Urushibara Ryuri, binding her to his side.

The night was growing deeper, and the moonlight on the island was gradually thinning, the waves coursed over the beach, lightly slapping the sand beneath the two people’s feet, making a rustling sound.

"What happened over there?" Urushibara Ryuri turned her head, curiously asking, "What disturbance could be so loud?"

"More importantly, you’re really strange, Miss Liuli, why could you move just now, while I couldn’t?" Black Cocoon asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Don’t play dumb, Bee King’s nerve toxins have covered the entire island, only at an altitude of two kilometers up could one have a chance to escape unscathed," Black Cocoon said, "And you should have already inhaled the Bee King’s nerve toxin just now, yet while my body was immobilized, my restraint belt could feel your body trying to struggle."

He paused, turned to look at Urushibara Ryuri, and asked suspiciously, "I don’t understand, what exactly is going on? Where did you get the ability to move?"

"I don’t know what you’re talking about." Urushibara Ryuri met his gaze and blinked, "Wasn’t I just always tied up by you? How could I have moved?"

She suddenly changed the subject, "Speaking of which, each person’s superpower is a reflection of their preference, superpowers are born out of your innermost thoughts, for example, if you want to run faster, you become Blue Arc; I wanted to keep my brother by my side, so my superpower appeared, as for you..." Saying this, she looked playfully at Black Cocoon, "That’s something I can’t really say."

"Stop, stop... I know what you’re trying to say." Black Cocoon timely stopped her.

"Indeed, a superpowered person with restraint belts, who knows what’s in their heart? What kind of experiences could give birth to such an interesting superpower?" Urushibara Ryuri shook her head and sighed.

"Trying to get me to talk by joking, I won’t fall for your tricks, Miss Urushibara Ryuri," Black Cocoon said, "Back to the topic, how exactly did you avoid the effect of the toxin?"

"I don’t even know what toxin or Bee King you’re talking about, you’re asking too much," Urushibara Ryuri pouted, still playing dumb.

Black Cocoon scratched his chin, knowing that Urushibara Ryuri’s superpower allowed her to see the perspectives of other tagged individuals.

But what he was unsure of was whether, under the premise that he was using restraint suppression on her superpower, Urushibara Ryuri’s ability to spy on tags could still be effective.

"Forget it, I’ll let you off this time," Black Cocoon shrugged, "Since you like to play dumb so much, we’ll deal with it slowly once this big battle is over, I must warn you, even if you don’t want to speak then, you will have to."

"Since you’re so capable, why not ask me now?" Urushibara Ryuri teasingly asked.

"Because I’m still busy... I’m a very busy person, Miss Liuli, unlike you who only needs to lie here and quietly wait for your demise."

With that, Black Cocoon closed his eyes, concentrating on controlling the perspective of the Restraint Incarnation.

...

...

A minute ago, on the other side of the world, at the center of the Deserted Island.

Gu Qiye lay on the barren sand, staring blankly in the direction of the deep pit.

He couldn’t see what exactly was happening in the pit, deep as it was at five hundred meters. He only knew he heard a familiar train roar, and then Qiao’s presence just disappeared, as if it was never there.

And the one presiding over all this was Black Cocoon, standing on the artificial moon. From beginning to end, Black Cocoon was always at ease, so playful. Ever since Gu Qiye met this person, he had never seen a situation slip from his control.

From the bottom of his heart, Gu Qiye breathed a sigh of relief, feeling grateful for the day at Li Jing Square when he was trapped by the Green Wing incident and chose to seek out Black Cocoon alone.

During this time, without Black Cocoon’s help, he might have died thousands, tens of thousands of times, no... not only him, but his family would have suffered the same fate.

"Now next... it’s time to get down to business." Gu Qiye thought this, slowly getting up from the ground, then turning to look at the You Ruirui beside him.

With the disappearance of the Bee King, the nerve toxins born from his superpower naturally vanished as well.

At this moment, the members of Rainbow Wings gradually regained their right to move, only Alexandra remained bound in the restraint belt above that small artificial moon—yes, Black Cocoon had not only stolen her superpower but also conveniently left a "restraint trap" on the moon.

Thus, the trap’s restraint belt surrounded Alexandra’s body, sticking her to the moon’s surface.

At this moment, two artificial moons were floating above the island, Black Cocoon’s Restraint Incarnation stood atop one, silently watching the powerless and furious Princess on the other.

Then, he waved at her with the restraint belt.

Alexandra glared at him, yet unwilling to cry for help, her pride as a noblewoman prevented her from allowing her teammates to see such a wretched state.

At this moment, the artificial moon beneath Black Cocoon’s feet was disappearing, an impostor is ultimately an impostor, unable to endure as long as the original.

Thus, he averted his gaze from Alexandra, looking down at the Deserted Island, at the Rainbow Wings members scattered across the yellow sand, who now had regained their ability to fight and were gradually gathering together.
