Chapter 251: Chapter 251

Could it be that when Guan He died, she left a trap for him?

She definitely wouldn’t have expected that he would be resurrected using her identity!

Since she didn’t know, how could she have left a trap?!

For a moment, all of Jiang Ye’s clones were thrown into a panic!

But very quickly, he suddenly realized—

This extreme pain was not simultaneously inflicted on all clones.

The relatively calm light-element clone, deducing from the distant Mirror Palace secret realm, concluded—

Could it be Lightburn?!

In the recent battle, he had used light-element skills on the dark-type Red Guan He twice.

The first time he used the light-element skill, Red Guan He did not die.

She even took the opportunity to stick talismans on the administrator clone;

The second time, Red Guan He finally died...

Therefore, Red Guan He was already infected with Lightburn the moment she first endured the administrator’s light-element skill!

She was holding back the pain from Lightburn, using those talismans to seal the administrator!

No wonder the voice she used to speak to “Jiang Ye” was broken and distorted!

Because at that time, although she wasn’t dead, she was suffering the agony of Lightburn!

What shocked Jiang Ye even more was—

The power of Lightburn was terrifying beyond belief!

The resurrection effect of clones killing clones could not cleanse Lightburn!

Jiang Ye had previously learned about the horror of Lightburn from many angles.

Including from the memories of Wu Ying and Zhang Minghan.

Almost all dark-type creatures reacted to Lightburn with utter dread!

And now, Jiang Ye personally experiencing Lightburn...

He finally truly understood why all dark-type creatures feared Lightburn so much!

Pain was only one aspect.

The more crucial part was that the effects of Lightburn were outrageous!

Jiang Ye’s other clones, who had no interaction whatsoever with this newly resurrected Guan He clone,

Yet all clones except the light-element ones—even those not dark-type—felt the pain of Lightburn!

And it was the kind of pain that was utterly unbearable, making them want to die at any moment!

It was literally as if one infected clone instantly spread the infection like a virus to all clones!

What baffled Jiang Ye the most was—

Previously, his dark clones were not afraid of light clones.

But now, the source of Lightburn was clearly a light clone...

Yet all his clones were feeling the agony of Lightburn!

Could it be that once Lightburn arises, there is no concept of ownership?

The moment Lightburn appeared in Guan He’s body, the existing Lightburn was no longer connected to the light clone?

So when Jiang Ye transformed the infected Guan He into his clone, all other clones synchronized and felt the pain of Lightburn?

That seemed to be the only explanation that made sense.

At this moment, overwhelmed by the intense pain of Lightburn infection, Jiang Ye somewhat regretted turning the infected Guan He into a clone...

Because this kind of pain was really a major hindrance!

Even though he forced himself to endure it without rolling on the ground,

The severe pain still affected his thinking and actions!

All clones feeling Lightburn’s pain had their work efficiency greatly reduced!

Therefore, he had to find a way to suppress this pain first!

The first thing Jiang Ye thought of—

Wang Lingling, who was also infected with Lightburn, was originally writhing in pain.

But Lin Ling had suppressed the pain of Lightburn with a black ribbon.

So maybe he could borrow that black ribbon from Lin Ling?

At this moment, Jiang Ye, wracked by extreme pain, no longer cared about consequences.

The extremely painful Clone No. 1 trembled as he took out the voice transmission bead to contact the White-Robed Woman.

Just as he was about to say something into the bead,

Zhou Yuling’s anxious voice came from it first:

“Weren’t you supposed to kill Huang Bo? What exactly have you done? Why is there such a huge commotion in 4444 Apartment?!”

Jiang Ye had prepared a response for Zhou Yuling.

But now, unable to care about that, he weakly and restrainedly replied:

“I... I can’t explain more right now... I—I’m infected with Lightburn!”

There was silence on the other end of the transmission bead for quite a while.

It was unclear what expression Zhou Yuling had at this moment.

But soon, her shocked voice came again:

“What?! You had so many anti-light items, how did you still get infected with Lightburn?!”

Jiang Ye thought to himself: I don’t know either! After turning an infected player into my clone, other clones actually got infected too!

Damn it! This Lightburn is so nasty!

His current mood perfectly matched that saying—You don’t feel the whip until it hits yourself.

Before, he had never really understood why even the top-tier dark-type creatures, like the apartment owners, feared Lightburn so much.

Simply hearing news of light-type players could make them set aside other conflicts and do whatever it took to eliminate the light players.

Now, personally experiencing the absurdity of Lightburn...

He finally deeply understood those dark-type creatures. Fresh chapters posted on N0velFire.ɴet

He obviously didn’t have time to explain to Zhou Yuling, so he hurriedly said into the transmission bead with urgency:

“Before, a classmate of mine was also infected with Lightburn, and that Lin Ling used a piece of black ribbon to help my classmate suppress the pain caused by Lightburn...”

“Do you know what that black ribbon is? Can you find a way to get me some?”

Heavy breathing was heard from the transmission bead.

After a moment, Zhou Yuling replied immediately: “Okay, come to Room 2064, I’ll give you a piece of black ribbon.”

What Jiang Ye felt helpless about was—

He had so many clones, and one piece of black ribbon might not be enough.

He just hoped that black ribbon wasn’t a particularly rare item...

Ideally, something as common as Skin Sand.

That way, every one of his clones could have one, and the pain of Lightburn could be completely suppressed...

Also, suppressing Lightburn was only the first step.

According to what dark-type creatures knew, if Lightburn lingered in a player for too long, it could be fatal!

It was unknown if there was any way to completely eradicate Lightburn’s influence...

To be honest, Jiang Ye felt that there probably was no way to remove Lightburn entirely within the entire Doomsday Apartment.

The Defenders’ Alliance wouldn’t even get infected with Lightburn in the first place.

And if dark-type creatures could remove Lightburn, they wouldn’t be so afraid of light anymore...

While Clone No. 1 was rushing toward Room 2064 where Zhou Yuling was, feeling how complicated things were,

If anyone in the entire Doomsday Apartment could completely remove Lightburn...

It would probably be the Nomadic Merchant, right?

When Clone No. 1 arrived at Room 2064, he was almost tormented into a daze by Lightburn, blurting out:

“Hurry, hurry! I can’t take it anymore!!”

“It’s too painful!!!”

Zhou Yuling didn’t waste any time and quickly threw a black ribbon toward him, wrapping it around his left wrist.

However, even with the black ribbon wrapped, Clone No. 1 did not feel the pain disappear!

He was about to ask about it.

Zhou Yuling instead immediately questioned:

“That doesn’t seem right. The clone infected with Lightburn isn’t this one, is it?”

Jiang Ye was stunned: “What do you mean?”

Zhou Yuling explained more clearly:

“The effect of Lightburn is indeed terrifying. For players with clones, as long as one clone is infected with Lightburn, all clones will endure the pain...”

“But essentially, only the one body that has been ‘Lightburned’ is truly infected.”

“So this black ribbon only needs to be used on the clone infected with Lightburn to simultaneously suppress the pain in all clones.”

Jiang Ye’s eyes lit up!

This meant he didn’t need a lot of black ribbons.

So, he quickly put the black ribbon into the clone shared space.

The Guan He clone, the source of the Lightburn infection, quickly tied the black ribbon around her left wrist.

In that instant, the intense pain felt by the Guan He clone rapidly gathered toward her left wrist wrapped in the ribbon.

In a flash, Jiang Ye vaguely saw a spot of light flicker on the pure black ribbon.

Immediately after, her left wrist completely lost sensation.

And the unbearable pain of Lightburn in the entire Guan He clone’s body finally subsided!

At the same time, the Lightburn pain synchronously felt by all other clones also disappeared!

Finally, with the pain gone, all clones who had suffered Lightburn breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Ye also returned to normal and began reorganizing the current situation.

Starting with Clone No. 1.

Sensing his pain had disappeared, Zhou Yuling hurriedly asked:

“Can you explain to me now? What exactly did you do? You had so many items, so how did you still get infected with Lightburn?”

She looked meaningfully at Clone No. 1 Jiang Ye:

“The Lightburn infection on you... it shouldn’t be from Huang Bo, right?”

Clone No. 1 Jiang Ye slowly exhaled.

Meanwhile, the Guan He clone in the Reincarnation Graveyard was preparing to check her data panel and properly organize her information.

Suddenly, a voice came into her mind that made her whole body stiffen:

“Have we truly entered the real Reincarnation Graveyard??”
