MTL - What’s Wrong With Seeking Death?-Chapter 120
God-given monarchy fools the people.
This is Jiang Lin's own ability. Chaotic tendencies, characterized by fooling others. As the level rises, the objects that can be fooled will gradually break away from the category of living creatures, and will continue to increase. When they reach the Chen level, they can even fool time.
But she is only Hui-level now. The most extreme operation that can be done is to fool the space—she can temporarily disrupt the basic space rules in an area, so as to achieve the effect of going from one place to another in an instant.
In all fairness, this ability is enough for her now. It's just that for some reason, after she was successfully transferred out of the Roots Museum, her ability has been a little out of order—Jiang Lin wanted to go straight back to the tunnel. But due to physical reasons, she had to stop in the woods halfway. And when she wanted to activate the ability again, she always failed to transfer, and could only circle around in the woods.
Jiang Lin suspected that there was something wrong with the camphor forest. After all, the living people gathered here would be teleported at every turn. According to the previous problem-solving ideas, she may have to go to other buildings before she can transfer away smoothly.
The good news is that not far from her is the tea room. The bad news is that she's not sure her body will last until then. Even though she has been using the self-hypnosis ability of the eternal day that comes with her body, her vitality is still passing away in an irreversible trend. If this continues, she might really be cooler than Jiang Lin...
Thinking of this, Jiang Lin felt angry. She held on and walked a few steps forward, feeling her body start to feel cold again.
— And at this moment, she saw Yang Buqi.
She didn't see that the guy came out from that corner, he walked out of the nearby woods as if he was just passing by, the small flower pot on his feet rattled.
Jiang Lin subconsciously touched his chest first, wiped blood on the brooch with his name on it, quickly took it off and put it away. Then she saw her eyes closed, and when she opened them again, there were tears in her eyes.
"Help!" She yelled weakly, stumbling towards Yang Buqi while shouting, "Help me! There are monsters, there are monsters trying to kill me—"
After confirming that the cry had attracted Yang Buqi's attention, she simply didn't bother to continue running, and fell to the ground with a plop. However, after waiting for a few seconds, no one came over. He raised his head inexplicably, and saw that Yang Buqi was still standing firmly on the spot, not only had no intention of approaching at all, but was still looking around, as if he was waiting for something. appearance.
Jiang Lin: "..." This trash!
However, she had already fallen to the ground, so it was hard to pat her pants and stand up and continue to rush over there. Jiang Lin took a breath restrained, and simply supported the ground with both hands, while continuing to ask for help, he crawled towards Yang Buqi.
"Help, save me...I'm going to die..." She made a pitiful voice as much as possible, staring fixedly at Yang Buqi.
——If this guy is really going to die, then she doesn't mind taking another one before he dies. No matter how weak she is, she still has the ability to disturb a monster's sanity.
Fortunately, Yang Buqi finally responded this time. After looking around for a while, he seemed to realize something, sighed softly, then finally turned his gaze to himself, and walked over slowly.
"Are you okay? Why are you here?" He squatted down in front of Jiang Lin, his tone flat. Jiang Lin raised his eyes vigorously, and noticed that his clothes were clean, but there was a heavy drape in his movements, as if something was hidden inside the clothes.
At the same time, the back of a reverse pin brooch is faintly exposed at the neckline. This made Jiang Lin feel a little alert.
He also recovered the brooch. Does that mean he gained more memories?
Jiang Lin couldn't help but feel a little worried about the other party's ignorance before contacting him. On the face, he still looked miserable, and reached out to reach Yang Buqi's trunk: "I don't know... I just left the tunnel for a while, and was suddenly teleported here..."
Before he finished speaking, his outstretched hand found nothing. Noticing Dao Yang Buqi's half-step back, her expression turned cold, but she still dutifully finished the lines in her mouth: "I, I met a monster who wanted to kill me, and I managed to escape. I'm so cold, I'm about to died…"
"help me…"
The voice became lower and lower, and she lowered her eyes slightly, with a frightening yellow color slightly floating in her eyes.
At this moment, her shoulders suddenly sank. Jiang Lin turned his head in astonishment, only to see two tree branches resting on his shoulders.
"Don't worry." Yang Buqi's voice sounded again, still calm and calm, "I will save you."
"I won't let you die."
He said this firmly, even with some force. Jiang Lin couldn't help being startled, her body tensed subconsciously, but she soon realized that she seemed to be overthinking—
A steady stream of vitality is indeed pouring into his body. The pain of being forcibly suppressed gradually dissipated, and the body was gradually warming up.
Even the severed right hand grew out of the empty wrist bit by bit, from bone to tendon, from flesh to skin, and it only took a few minutes to fully grow.
Jiang Linyi stared at his right hand, and after a while, Fang got up from the ground with joy on his face.
"My God, how did you do it?" She didn't forget to make a surprised expression, "It's amazing!"
"...Thanks to a bad guy." Yang Buqi looked away nonchalantly, and at the same time moved the two branches away from Jiang Lin's body, "But it's not important."
"In this way, that guy has done you a favor." Jiang Lin turned his eyes and said intentionally, "From another perspective, you should thank her."
Yang Buqi froze for a moment, and did not respond to this sentence. Instead, he asked, "Did you see anyone else?"
Jiang Lin: "?"
"The others were also teleported away, and everyone was lost." Yang Buqi began to look around again, "I came here to find someone. But I didn't see anyone except you."
"There are some brooches on the second floor of the tea room. I don't know whose."
"Really? Then I don't know. Maybe someone just left the tea room." Jiang Lin paused, determined to hurry up and clean up Jiang Lin, "Then you keep looking, I was frightened just now, I think Slow down first."
After speaking, he thanked Yang Buqi hypocritically, and rushed towards the tea room without looking back.
As for Yang Buqi, he just quietly watched her receding back. Until seeing her enter the tea room with his own eyes, Fang lowered his eyes and walked to the nearby forest. He tore off the two branches that he had just used to touch Jiang Lin, and threw them on the ground without hiding his disgust.
— On the other end, Jiang Lin, who entered the tea room, patted his blood-soaked clothes nonchalantly, and looked up at the surroundings.
The first floor of the tea room was empty, and there was no white bear. This is exactly what she wants. Jiang Lin immediately walked to the corner of the lobby, closed his eyes and concentrated, trying to stir up the surrounding space.
With the activation of the skill, the surrounding floors and walls did twist for a moment. However, the distortion was fleeting, and everything returned to normal soon - and Jiang Lin still stood in place perfectly, without any movement.
...what's going on here?
Jiang Lin frowned again, and tried to activate his ability a few times without giving up. Only once, he successfully moved himself to the door of the tea room, but he only reached the door.
It just stopped by the door. The toes are touching the threshold. it looks like...
It's as if I'm stuck here.
With a bad premonition in his heart, Jiang Lin hurriedly tried to walk outside the door. The empty gate seems to have been added with an air wall, which cannot be broken through at all.
...not like, she's just stuck here.
Jiang Lin's expression changed instantly. After several unsuccessful attempts to break through, she could only turn her attention to the interior of the tea room, trying to find any clues—but only then did she notice that the piece of paper pasted on the counter seemed to be the same as the one she had seen before. different.
Looking from a distance, the handwriting is connected together. Jiang Lin pursed his lips, walked forward slowly, and picked up the paper, only to see densely packed handwriting on it.
【…1. Where there are tables and chairs, it can be regarded as a classroom. Therefore the tea room can be regarded as a classroom. [Students] are not allowed to leave the classroom without the permission of [Teacher]. 】
[2. Only those who have been given the status of [teacher] can be regarded as [teacher]. Only a [teacher] or a school policy maker is entitled to confer [teacher] status on others. 】
[3. In the [classroom], except for the teacher, all are regarded as students. 】
[4. [Teacher] is obliged to maintain discipline in the classroom. 】
…
There are several articles following it, all of which are restrictions on the behavior of "students". Including but not limited to attacking teachers, running and making noise, and various forms of threats...
And the last one says, [[teacher] must not conceal the existence of this school rule from [student]. The school rules must be placed within the reach of [student] at all times. Otherwise, the rule will not take effect. 】
Jiang Lin: ...
"Teacher..." She said these two words softly, and laughed at herself, "It's really interesting."
She turned her head as if feeling something, and saw that there was one more person on the stairs behind her at some point—Shangguan Qi was standing there quietly, with his hands folded in front of him, looking gentle and dignified.
Jiang Lin sneered, and casually slapped the paper in his hand on the table.
"Article 8. There must be a teacher in the classroom. Otherwise, the school rules will not take effect..." She recited what she had read just now, and looked up at the person on the stairs, "It seems that you are here." Teacher' huh?"
Shangguan Qi nodded slightly, neither humble nor overbearing: "I thought you would regard me as someone who was trapped with you."
"Shangguan Qi, the 'principal' of 'Dahuaihua Middle School' in the box field. He is orderly, at least at the level of Hui, and the quality is 'a teacher'." Jiang Lin glanced at the brooch in front of her, and opened his mouth, "It is said that you have been missing for a long time I didn't expect to meet here."
Shangguan Qi tilted his head: "You don't seem to be curious about why I left you behind."
"It's not important." Jiang Lin shrugged, "The important thing is that I have confirmed two things now.
"First, you are the enemy.
"Second, I should run."
Jiang Lin raised his head slightly, and pointed at the paper on the counter: "Very perfect rules. It almost sealed off the possibility of my escape. But Principal Shangguan, do you know? There must be loopholes in the so-called order."
She looked at Shangguan Qi who was frowning slightly, and slowly smiled: "You shouldn't have let me see this thing."
After the voice fell, the surrounding scene suddenly began to distort. Shangguan Qi frowned and looked at Jiang Lin who was standing in the center of the distortion, and subconsciously rushed a few steps downstairs, but by mistake, Jiang Lin was no longer where he was!
Shangguan Qi's eyes widened slightly, when he suddenly heard a rustling sound outside the door. Surprised, he turned his face away, and saw Jiang Lin's figure running away from the door of the tea room, rushing straight forward.
...? !
No time to think about how the other party escaped from the "classroom", Shangguan Qi sighed secretly, and immediately chased after him. Seeing that her foot was about to cross the threshold, she suddenly felt a thump in her heart, and instinctively stopped in her footsteps—unfortunately, it was too late.
The scene in front of him suddenly changed. The floor of the tea room was replaced by a gravel path in the forest. She thought she stopped the car in time and did not leave the tea room, but in fact, she was already standing outside the tea room.
...are hallucinations.
From that moment on, everything she saw was replaced by hallucinations.
As if realizing something, Shangguan Qi turned his head vigilantly. The real Jiang Lin was still standing in the lobby of the tea room.
"Goodbye, teacher." She said lightly, and waved to Shangguan Qi, the surrounding scene rotated again, and a second before it was about to disappear, she heard Shangguan Qi speak again, her voice still calm:
"I didn't say that there is only one classroom in a school..."
...?
What's the meaning?
This thought quickly flashed through Jiang Lin's mind. Before she had time to think, she had already left the tea room.
—and soon, she knew what that meant.
Jiang Lin originally planned to transfer directly to the Tree Roots Museum. It was obviously a very simple matter, but it seemed that something interfered in the middle, and when he realized it, he had fallen into the woods again.
To make matters worse, this time, there were no buildings around her. She doesn't even know where she is.
Jiang Lin: ...
Try two more times. The transfer ability is still available, but as before, the destination is completely random, and even she herself doesn't know where she will land.
Jiang Lin had no choice but to be patient, and transferred again - because of what Shangguan Qi said before, she is now vigilant against all places with roofs. Although she couldn't be sure why they suddenly attacked her, the only thing she wanted to do now was to quickly land near the Tree Roots Museum, and then try to get in and do Jiang Lin.
Landed again. Not far away, the shadow of the Tree Roots Museum finally appeared. Jiang Lin felt relieved, and immediately rushed over there on foot. After walking a few steps, his vision was suddenly blinded by a fog. She turned her head vigilantly, only to find that her surroundings were completely surrounded by white mist.
This is obviously not a good thing. Jiang Lin also never remembered that anyone had mentioned to her that there would be fog in the forest. She gritted her teeth secretly, trying to fool the space again, but found that the ability failed again—
No, no, not a failure.
It was she who forgot.
A skill that could be activated with just one thought, but now it feels awkward no matter how you do it. It's like a person who is used to using the keyboard and is suddenly asked to write by hand. It is a very familiar word, but he doesn't write it right, so that he can't write a word for a long time.
Jiang Lin didn't know what was going on, but she knew that this state was absolutely abnormal. And it probably has something to do with this weird mist. It would be too passive to just stand there like this, and her thoughts turned, she quickly made up her mind, settled on a direction, and ran towards it without hesitation.
—As long as it is a vision caused by ability, there must be a scope and boundary. What she has to do now is to get out of that range as much as possible!
The direction is chosen randomly, and the possibility of being specially ambushed is not high. Assuming that the person who cast the mist is there, she will be teleported away when she approaches, which is a good thing...
Jiang Lin gritted his teeth and silently quickened his pace. I don’t know what’s going on along the way, bumps and bumps, I always step on strange things under my feet, and even tripped over something...
There was a burst of stinging pain as the arm passed over something sharp. Jiang Lin didn't care about all this, and ran forward with his head covered in his arms, blood slipping down the wound and dripping all the way on the ground.
And not long after she left, the fog behind her suddenly dissipated. Standing in the small clean area, Lin Yun looked at the blood she left behind thoughtfully, and said to the other side: "How do you know that she will definitely appear here and flee in that direction? Before The traps set up happened to be stepped on. It's amazing."
"It's not 'just' being stepped on, but 'definitely' will be stepped on." A clear female voice came out of the mist. Fang Ke turned around from behind a tree, carefully kept a certain distance from Lin Yun, and curiously reached out his hand to touch the white mist next to him, "I don't seem to know you very well before. What is your ability? ?”
"Heavy fog." Lin Yun said calmly, "My quality is 'heavy fog', and my tendency is natural disasters plus eternal day."
Enemies caught in the mist will forget certain skills or common sense. The more you need, the deeper you forget.
In addition, the mist also has a purifying effect. Can deal damage to abominations trapped within.
"What about you?" After Lin Yun introduced himself, he looked curiously at Fang Ke's figure in the mist.
"Prediction." Fang Ke folded his arms, and his words seemed to be a little smug, "The **** of death is coming."
"?" Lin Yun was stunned for a moment, "Huh?"
"I said my quality name." Fang Ke looked at the direction where Jiang Lin was escaping, and slightly curled the corners of his lips, "It's called, 'Death is coming'."
the other end.
Under the solid ice layer, a pair of fish eyes were turning stiffly, with a strange light shining from the eyeballs.
Jiang Lin is trying to confirm his own situation. He doesn't know where he is at the moment, but he can be sure that this is definitely not the root museum.
Jiang Lin didn't know how he moved here. He only remembered that not long ago, Xu Tuoran had loaded the ice octopus into a trolley. At that time, Jiang Lin still had some unrealistic hopes in his heart-the ability of order cannot be without boundaries. As long as Xu Tuoran took him out of the effective range of the rules, he would be sure to break free from the ice.
He never expected that he was about to be taken out of the gate of the museum. Xu Tuoran stopped suddenly, took out a weird abomination prop, and sang to himself an annoying song "Sleep, baby"...
It's definitely a lie to say it sounds good. Even through a layer of ice, the sound effect full of impurities still made Jiang Lin very irritable. However, what was outrageous was that he actually listened and fell asleep just like that.
In the middle of the journey, he seemed to wake up several times in a daze, and was also knocked unconscious by Xu Tuoran's song "Sleep in peace, baby". When he was fully awake, he was already here.
Across the ice layer, it was difficult for him to fully see the situation outside. It was only vaguely discernible that this was a very empty place. There seems to be a dark exit across the corridor in front, and there is a large open space behind, which is used for no one.
There was a faint sound coming from outside the ice layer. He struggled to turn his head, and after a lot of effort, he finally caught Xu Tuoran's figure—she was standing obliquely in front of him, and she seemed to be communicating with a big white bear.
Takumi closed his vision and tried his best to amplify his other senses. Finally, I struggled to catch a few words:
"The timing of this cooking... is there any particularity?"
"...Oh, it means raw and...cooked, not the other side..."
"Ah? Is it okay to bring ice?"
"No, no, you can't kill it now... This one is different from the others, it has to be fresh..."
"The sticks on the skewer...I know this, and I will definitely take it off before putting it in the pot."
…
Jiang Lin rolled his eyes blankly, his head filled with question marks.
What are they talking about? What to cook? Is it the one he understood?
Is there still hot pot in this domain?
He was in a daze, feeling that everything he heard was extremely absurd. However, after thinking about it, I feel that in this ghost place, everything seems to be quite reasonable——
After all, after he entered this domain, he encountered a white bear eating skewers more than once. This is quite rare in other domains, but thinking about it the other way around—since skewers are reasonable in this domain, hot pot is naturally reasonable as well.
But why mention hot pot here? What does it matter to him?
A terrible but vague idea came to mind, but before Jiang Lin could think it over clearly, the loud music sounded again, accompanied by Xu Tuoran's absent-minded singing full of noises, it stunned Jiang Lin's rare sober consciousness Pressed back again.
After singing the song, she still felt unsafe, so she yelled a few more times directly into the microphone. Because of his faint consciousness, Jiang Lin didn't hear what she shouted clearly, but only heard two sentences: "...is regarded as ingredients", "...is regarded as hot pot", "food cannot leave the pot before it is cooked "...
What ingredients? Who is the ingredient?
Before Jiang Lin realized the pros and cons, Xu Tuoran had already walked towards him slowly.
Immediately afterwards, he felt the weight and restraint on the tail suddenly dissipate. The rough skin finally came into contact with the air again. He instinctively felt that this was a good thing, but before he could react, a sharp pain rushed to his brain—
Xu Tuoran grabbed the stone spear that pierced through his tail, trying to pull it out.
Jiang Lin's drowsy brain was awake for a moment because of the severe pain, but soon it was suppressed by Yong Zhou's strength again. After a lot of effort, the stone spear was finally pulled out from the tail, followed by Jiang Lin feeling loose again.
This time it was the thick ice on his body that melted.
…just for some reason, he wasn't very happy.
Inexplicable anxiety lingered in his heart, and in the next second, he knew the reason for this anxiety.
—Xu Tuoran liberated his whole body from the ice.
Without hesitation, she stretched out her hand and pushed him hard.
Jiang Lin's body was still stiff, and he was pushed down by her uncontrollably. The bulky body fell briefly in the air, and then there was a "boom"—
He fell heavily into the deep pool of blood below.
