MTL - What’s Wrong With Seeking Death?-Chapter 119
Jiang Lin knew that the current situation was not good for him.
Possessed in the abomination, which means that his own divine right of kings can not be used at all. The only thing he can rely on is the tendency and skills of this abomination itself—the good news is that this abomination is also prone to war. It has rough skin and thick flesh with its own city wall defense, and it is already at the brilliance level, and its level is still good enough of.
The bad news is that this guy's attack style is pretty straightforward and one-dimensional. For Shang Jianglin, who focuses on chaos, the chances of winning are very low.
Therefore, at the moment Jiang Lin showed his killing intent, Jiang Lin made a decision in his fish head almost instantly - run!
Now that he has become an abomination, it is naturally very unrealistic to want to escape by suicide. So Jiang Lin resolutely chose to run physically—he suddenly lay down on the ground, swung his tail vigorously with his forelimbs covered with bear claws, and swam directly into the air, treating the air as sea water!
Carpenter faced this float, floating at a height of nearly two meters. The tail is like a powerful steel whip, constantly wagging, as if it is really swimming in the air. At the same time, the scales all over his body stretched out, like steel blades inserted into the fish's body, shining coldly in the sky.
Yes, skylight—a sliver of daylight cast from above the Roots Museum.
The Roots Museum has no roof. The whole building is like an open cylinder. This is hard to spot from the outside, and the design can only be found after entering the tree root museum.
Even when the museum itself is closed due to an accident, the upper part of the pavilion still retains a space for sunlight to penetrate. Jiang Lin doesn't know the meaning of this crazy design, but there is no doubt that it is extremely beneficial to him now—
Goodbye to you!
He muttered something in his heart, flicked his tail, and rushed straight towards the gap above his head with the aura of a fish leaping over a dragon's gate!
He is a monster, but Jiang Lin is human. He didn't believe it anymore, no matter how powerful Jiang Lin was, he could still fly up to stop him!
...And just as he expected, facing his escape, Jiang Lin just ran after him for a few steps, unable to do anything else.
This made Jiang Lin heave a sigh of relief. Seeing the gap above his head getting closer and closer, he couldn't help feeling a little frustrated.
You shouldn't, you shouldn't, if you knew it earlier, you shouldn't have spoken to that damned future. This is good, another waste of work... Thanks to his difficulty, he finally found one of the entrances to the altar.
Thinking of the square underground entrance with deep stone steps below, Jiang Lin was even more annoyed. He suddenly felt a little regretful. If he knew that when he ran just now, he should have tried to see if he could run through the underground entrance, maybe he could get in smoothly...
While thinking about it, the bright gap above the head is already close at hand. Jiang Lin withdrew his thoughts, didn't care about thinking any more, rushed over with a flick of his tail, half of his body, and immediately passed through—
In the next second, his eyes were dark.
Everything around him dimmed instantly, he seemed to have crashed headfirst into some dark lacquered bag, Jiang Lin fluttered his tail in a daze, and moved forward subconsciously, his rough belly seemed to come from some kind of hard Grabbing against the stepped object—almost at the same time, a burst of fiery pain struck along the fish's belly, like dense needle pricks, and like a tongue of fire suddenly ignited, burning up along his fish's belly!
Jiang Lin was caught off guard, and was so painful that he lost his mind in an instant, and instinctively struggled twice to retreat. While struggling, his chin and fish maw on both sides hit the same hard object, and the same pain spread immediately, and Jiang Lin almost cried out in pain.
No, wait... a stepped object?
Jiang Lin looked at the deep darkness in front of him. As the eyes gradually adapted, a silhouette gradually appeared in the darkness—it seemed like a step. A straight down, long steps.
...As if realizing something, Jiang Lin resisted the pain, and touched his surroundings with the forelegs that were spliced with bear claws.
Below the body is a ladder. Left and right are walls. The top of the head is also sealed.
This is the underground entrance.
This is the one he found, the underground entrance to the altar.
…he was confused. Jiang Lin finally realized this.
Maybe it was at the moment when he was about to run, maybe it was during his run. Jiang Lin quietly affected his sanity. He thought he was running towards the exit above his head, but in fact, he burrowed into the dark underground entrance without hesitation.
The stone steps in the underground entrance are made of the unique stone of the Star Altar, which can cause great damage to the abominations, and if it hurts a vital point, it can even cause death directly. He had foreseen this at the time, so he collected two bear claws covered in blood film in advance as a backup—however, the current situation is that he directly entered the underground entrance without any preparation, almost half The entire body was directly pressed against the steps.
The parts that come into contact with the stone make a sizzling sound. Realizing that the situation was not good, Jiang Lin hurriedly struggled harder, trying to get himself out. However, the scales on his body exploded too much. Coupled with his already huge body, it almost blocked the entire underground entrance, leaving him with very little space for his own struggle—
He was like a loach that had lost his mind, he only twisted his head and twisted his body, but instead he burrowed a lot into the entrance. More intense pain surged into his brain, and he reacted suddenly. This struggle was futile, and he hurriedly put away the scales that had exploded all over his body, reducing the size as much as possible, so as to try to float in the limited space.
However, the moment his jaw and chest and abdomen lifted slightly, the same severe pain came from his tail.
…No, the pain was even more intense, like a nail with flames piercing through the flesh!
Jiang Lin neighed in pain, and finally couldn't help roaring: "Jiang Lin—you crazy! What are you doing!"
Jiang Lin, who was outside, chuckled, turned the stone spear in his hand even harder, and nailed it deeply into Jiang Lin's protruding tail. Until the desperately struggling tail was completely nailed to the floor, Fang clapped his hands and straightened up.
"I'm helping you. Isn't it obvious?" She looked at the huge fish monster half buried in the underground entrance in front of her, and laughed unceremoniously, "You want to go in. I will help you in. Help You nail the tail so that you don't accidentally slip out, isn't that good?"
The stone spear was picked up by her when she came to look for a craftsman. At that time, she only thought that this thing would come in handy, but she didn't expect it to be so useful.
"It's good. It fits. Fish, shouldn't it be strung on a stick...!"
Before she could finish speaking, the tail of the fish in front of her suddenly raised, and a hideous fish face protruded from the tip of the tail, screaming and biting towards her!
Jiang Lin was startled, and hurriedly took two steps back. Fortunately, the tail was nailed to death by the stone spear, and it couldn't move much. The fish face struggled twice like a bluff, and soon fell silent.
She breathed a sigh of relief and stood up. As soon as he moved, he suddenly felt a burst of warmth on his shoulders and feet. When I looked sideways, I realized that I didn't know when there was a large wound on my body.
The wound was thin, but obviously not superficial. Large swaths of blood smeared on the clothes at an alarming speed, which looked shocking.
Jiang Lin subconsciously stretched out his hand to cover one of the wounds. After raising his right hand, he realized that his right wrist had become empty.
Until now, the human brain felt the sharp pain belatedly. The pain was so intense that she couldn't tell where it was hurting—or if it was the whole body.
She staggered back a few steps to the side. His eyes flicked to his right hand that had fallen to the ground. It was only then that she noticed that where she was standing just now, there was a lot of fish scales falling - so thin that it was almost transparent, and the sharp edges were all stained with light blood.
Jiang Lin frowned angrily, and Jiang Lin's quacking laughter came from the underground entrance:
"A high-level abomination with a war tendency, you don't think it has no means of attack at all?"
"Jiang Lin, guess what. Was it because I was unlucky that I died first, or did you die first if you couldn't bear it?"
Jiang Lin: ...
The bastard!
She glared at the fish monster in resentment, stained with blood, and tremblingly stretched out her remaining left hand to the ground—if she wanted to devour Jiang Lin, there were only two ways. Either fight directly in the upgrade space, or use specific rituals and runes to absorb each other when each is possessed.
As far as Jiang Lin is concerned, she naturally prefers the second option. Jiang Lin coveted the remaining power in the altar, and she was also moved by it. Now I finally have the opportunity to enter it, once I return to the upgrade space, there will be nothing left.
However, as Jiang Lin said. She couldn't bear it.
The wound cut by the fish scales was still bleeding out continuously, and the clothes on her body were almost soaked in blood. His body was already chilling due to the intense blood loss, and his eyes also turned black. She gritted her teeth secretly, only regretting that she didn't pick a possession object with a tendency to life when she came in—
The inclination of her current body is eternal day. The only use at this time is to help her block the pain, hypnotize her body, and let herself force herself to sleep for a while. But even if he was lingering on his last breath, the current self didn't have the energy to start the ceremony at all...
Wait, life?
Jiang Lin paused.
...Yang Buqi.
She remembered. Among the people who were also trapped in the domain this time, there was Yang Buqi.
Although that guy looks neither human nor ghost now, his life tendency must be reserved. And I don't know why, although he is alienated, he has no malice towards human beings, and he has a high probability of not recognizing himself now...
As long as you can deceive him, as long as you can deceive him...
At the thought of deceiving Yang Buqi, Jiang Linxin instinctively paused. However, after thinking about it, the other party is now a monster, and it is impossible to retain the ability to predict. His heart suddenly relaxed, and he glared angrily at the fish monster that fell upside down in the underground entrance.
"Wait till you die."
As she spoke coldly, the space around her suddenly began to distort, spinning like agitation, and the next moment, it suddenly returned to normal.
But the place where Jiang Lin was just now was already empty.
…
After a while, Jiang Lin, who was half buried in the cave, made a tentative voice: "Hey? Hey, are you still there? Do you have the guts to answer?"
Waited for a while and heard no response. Fang heard a sneer coming from the underground entrance: "Silly batch."
After the words fell, the half of the exposed fish tail suddenly began to struggle up and down. Once, twice... I don't know how many times I tried, but after hearing a "boo", the fish tail finally drove the stone spear nailed to the ground and pulled it out from the ground.
But the stone spear was still piercing through the tail, and the tail was almost numb from the pain. Jiang Lin couldn't hold back his words, and endured the pain, and continued to control the tail, moving backwards in coordination with the limbs. Because of the existence of the stone spear, he could only move a little bit at a time, and after several times of moving, he finally moved his long body out of the underground entrance.
Thanks to his current body's rough skin and thick flesh, he was able to last until now. Even so, Jiang Lin was already in severe pain, from his jaw to his abdomen were covered with burn marks. Smelling it carefully, he even felt that it was still a little fragrant.
"This lunatic!" Looking at his tail with the stone spear on it, he couldn't help cursing again, and he raised the bear claw attached to the foreleg with difficulty, trying to pull it off—the problem was that its tail was much bigger than it was. The hind limbs were still far away, and the short forelimbs were barely able to reach the front end of the stone spear after a lot of effort.
Jiang Lin's whole fish was numb, and he couldn't help thinking about the feasibility of docking its tail to survive. At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him:
"Do you need help?"
Craftsman Lin: ...
He turned his head stiffly, and saw a familiar figure squatting beside him, looking at him with a half-smile: "Jiang Lin, right? Long time no see."
...It was Xu Tuoran.
Gan.
Jiang Lin's heart skipped a beat, and his first reaction was to spread the scales all over his body. However, before he had time to move, he heard Xu Tuoran say leisurely:
"I declare that everything that is skewered on a stick is considered a skewer."
"I declare that skewers are food and cannot attack others."
Jiang Lin: "...!"
You only grill skewers, and your whole family does skewers!
He was so angry that his scales snapped, but such an outrageous rule actually worked—no matter how wide his scales opened, it would be difficult for him to attack.
Jiang Lin knew that he had really failed this time, and complained even more to Jiang Lin who was dragging his feet. As soon as he thought about it, he quickly spoke again:
"Let's cooperate."
"In this domain, there is another accomplice of mine. Let me go, and I will take you to identify her."
"Oh, Jiang Lin, right?" Xu Turan smiled and straightened his body, "I know her. I was at the door just now, and I came in after seeing her leave."
Jiang Lin: "...huh?"
"I wanted to come in directly, but just when I opened the door, I heard you guys making a scene. The commotion seemed very violent. I was embarrassed to disturb, so I waited outside first." Xu Tuoran spoke sincerely, looking Jiang Lin up and down, but he didn't know Is planning something.
Jiang Lin was already dumbfounded.
"Open the door? What are you talking about? Isn't this place closed..." Before he finished speaking, Jiang Lin was startled again—I saw another figure walking in from the entrance of the exhibition hall. Pushing a cart.
It's a thing with a white bear puppet costume.
Jiang Lin has seen this kind of thing since he came in, and he is very cowardly. However, for some reason, this one obviously made him feel a little different.
"I'm sorry, someone opened the back door for me." Xu Tuoran nodded leisurely, looked at Jianglin for a while, then looked at the trolley behind him, and gestured with his hand.
"...Well, it seems to be okay. It will take a little effort, but it should be able to pretend."
She was talking to herself, and she didn't know who she was talking to, and immediately nodded with self-confidence.
Her eyes fell on Jiang Lin again. The latter instinctively shivered: "What do you want?"
"It's nothing, I'm just thinking about how to transport fresh food." Xu Tuoran said softly, and suddenly took a step forward, pressing his palm against Jiang Linxu——
Jiang Lin felt a bone-piercing chill piercing through him for an instant. In the next moment, he watched helplessly as the thick layer of ice covered the skin, biting down inch by inch along the thick fish scales.
He instinctively propped up the fish scales, flicked the fish tail, and began to struggle desperately. However, following Xu Tuoran's understatement, "the skewers don't struggle", all the struggles were suppressed—he could only stare in vain, Let the thick ice completely wrap itself.
On the other end, Xu Turan heaved a long sigh of relief.
"Yes, it's easier than I imagined." She pressed her chest sincerely, "Thank you Jiang Lin."
The big pyrene bear at the side—or rather, the wooden human domain master attached to the big pyrene bear turned his head slowly, and a stiff voice came out from the hood:
"But. She. Escaped."
"what."
"Don't worry. Yang Buqi is staring at her." Xu Tuoran clapped his palms and began to circle around the frozen Jianglin, "And... aren't there other people?"
She glanced at the white bear next to her: "The premise is that you really have the ability to return them."
Great Pyrenees: ...
"I regret it." It said slowly, "I shouldn't have paid it back."
Xu Tuoran: "?"
"Jiang is about to die and will be transferred." The big white bear said seriously, "They are all dangerous."
It really regretted it - because it was the words of the stars, so it chose to obey. But in this situation, it cannot be sure whether its obedience is correct.
It is not difficult for it to return the hidden abilities to those capable users in the form of brooches. It only takes one thought, and those black bears will automatically present the brooch for it, just like when they returned all the memories to Xu Turan.
The question is, should it really do this? The human body possessed by Jiang Lin was obviously at the end of its strength when it escaped. If she dies like this, then all Hui class will be exposed to the danger of being possessed again, including those trapped by it... those past companions.
Then everything it does makes no sense at all.
Big Pyrenees looked outside the exhibition hall, as if lost in thought. Xu Tuoran next to him exhaled, and pushed the trolley to the side of the frozen big salted fish.
"First of all, not all Fai-class are dangerous. I know it might hurt to say that, but your intelligence really needs to be updated. Second—"
She erected the trolley's bucket and tried to push the ice that sealed Jianglin into it, her voice was a little tense because of the force: "I said, Yang Buqi, and others, will, clean up, her - Oh, I'm exhausted."
The huge ice cube was finally pushed into the trolley. Xu Tuoran shook his hand and raised his eyes: "You don't trust others, you should trust me."
The big white bear turned its head numbly, and the voice still paused: "Why do you think so?"
"Didn't you say that you have been waiting for me?" Xu Tuoran said as a matter of course, his eyes glanced at the underground entrance, and his voice suddenly sank, "Although I don't know what's going on, but I can feel it. It turns out that you have pinned certain expectations on me. Since this is the case, then I think I still have a high reputation for you."
"..." The big white bear looked at her silently, paused for a while, and then said "ah" slowly.
Xu Turan: ...
Fortunately, she is quite used to the other party's expression of reciting poems every now and then. Hearing the words, it is only as if the other party has not denied it. She forcefully turned the car bucket containing the big ice cubes, and continued: "Speaking of which, why are you waiting for me?"
Great Pyrenees didn't respond. Xu Turan was not in a hurry. After packing up the ice, he looked at the underground entrance in the center of the ground again.
"I always feel that this place seems to have some kind of connection with me."
As she said, she walked slowly towards the entrance, tilted her head subconsciously, and her eyes were slightly blue: "This domain does not only exist to deal with bugs, right? You are guarding something, and that thing related to me…"
Xu Tuoran stood on the edge of the underground entrance, looking at the undulating water waves with great interest. In the distance, there seemed to be some kind of ethereal call, mixed with drums and singing.
Before she knew it, one foot was already trying to move in. However, before the toes landed on the ground, someone grabbed his arm suddenly.
She turned her head in astonishment, and was facing the expressionless face of the big white bear.
"You. Can't. Go in." A stiff voice came from inside the hood again.
"Until you. are ready. Can't go in."
"Ready?" Xu Tuoran frowned, "What do you mean?"
Big Pyrenees tilted his head: "I'm not sure."
"But at least wait for you. Know who you are."
Xu Tuoran: "..."
"Isn't it enough to know that I'm Xu Tuoran?" She paused and asked tentatively.
Great Pyrenees didn't answer. That doesn't seem to be enough.
Thinking on the bright side, this at least made Xu Tuoran reaffirm one thing—his own background is definitely not simple. Definitely a big shot.
"But you should know who I am, right?" Xu Tuoran thought for a while, then said, "Can't you just tell me?"
What responded to her was another "ah" from the great pyrene bear.
Then I heard it intermittently: "I. I don't have that qualification."
Xu Tuoran: "..."
"Okay, then it seems that I'm really a super big man." She let out a light breath.
This time, the white bear deserved it quickly. It nodded and said "hmm".
"..." Xu Tuoran glanced at it again, and then at Jiang Lin who was still frozen beside him. After a little deliberation, he spoke again, "Did you do those things because you foresaw my existence back then? What exactly did you foresee? In your prophecy, did I... eh? Eh? Don't you My gosh!"
Before she finished speaking, she saw the big white bear shake twice, suddenly a Xi Shi held her heart, and the whole bear spun and fell to the ground. Xu Tueran hurriedly stretched out his hand to help, but saw the big white bear shook its head twice, and then straightened up again. The bear's demeanor was completely different.
— To put it simply, it is to become very cowardly. A kind of cowardice from the inside out.
He was so cowardly that when he saw Xu Tuoran for the first time, he hugged his face and let out a silent scream, then turned around and ran away without thinking!
Xu Turan: ...
Well, it seems that I had too many problems and forced the Human Domain Master away.
She stroked her forehead secretly, and seeing that the big white bear was about to run out of the exhibition hall, she closed her eyes and said helplessly, "No entry or exit."
With a bang, the great white bear seemed to hit a transparent wall and fell to the ground.
Xu Tuoran stepped forward and pulled the bear up, all the way to the trolley filled with huge ice cubes.
"What are you running for? I don't see you here. Do you need help? Come and help push the cart."
As he said that, he supported the huge ice cube on the car, looked at the godless fish eyes in the ice, and pursed his lips angrily.
"Push it steady. The place we are going to is far away."
