MTL - What’s Wrong With Seeking Death?-Chapter 94
Rewind time to several hours ago.
In the small rental room, Jiang Lin was adding seasoning packets to the bowl of instant noodles, his eyes were dull and his face was expressionless. Unexpectedly, when he heard a slight sound coming from the door, his first reaction was to cover the noodle bowl with his hands.
Turning his head to look at the door again, he saw a large group of mud pouring into the room like a living thing, and his expression suddenly became subtle.
"Jiang Lin?" She asked in surprise, "Are you crazy?"
"How do you talk?" Nai said angrily, pulled it up, and condensed into a tall human figure, "I'm very awake."
"Are you still making yourself look like this when you're sober?" Jiang Lin said, frowned in distaste, and hid the noodle bowl back, "Stay away from me, disgusting."
Jiang Lin: "..."
"You don't understand." Mason Lin found a chair and sat down, gracefully crossing his legs, "I did this out of strategic needs."
"Your strategic need is to turn yourself into an abomination after capturing your body?" Jiang Lin began to pour hot water into the noodle bowl, "Sick."
While abominations tend to be more powerful than humans of the same tier, higher tier abominations can also master rituals and domains. However, they are very clear that this kind of thing is naturally incomplete, and it is useless. It is not suitable for their original strength.
Because of this natural inappropriateness, they can't possess abominations, they can only take human bodies. And after entering the human body, it is not so easy for them to become an abomination. Just like larvae can turn into mosquitoes, tadpoles can turn into frogs, but larvae can't turn into frogs anyway.
However, Takumi is now in the state of an abomination. There is only one possibility, that is, he specially found an ability user who was about to lose control and degenerate to possess him, and after possessing him, he let the body's original degenerate tendency.
"To tell you the truth, it's more than that." Unexpectedly, after listening to Jiang Lin, he still looked a little complacent. He pointed to his body made of mud, "Chaos-hui-level, Eternal Day-level. In order to get on this body, I even turned around and found a war-hui-level human..."
At that time, his current body was only at the chaotic candle level. It doesn't meet his possession needs at all. He managed to get close to Instigation, convincing the other party to risk using Abominations and Runes to force upgrades.
And this way is actually very easy to lead to loss of control or death.
He purposely waited until the other party was about to lose control, directly committed suicide and left the body at that time, entered the current body through the path of chaos, and became a chaotic-level abomination as he wished.
"And I finished all of this in less than a week." Having said that, Jiang Lin's tone seemed even more complacent.
Coming: "..."
She tried to understand what Jiang Lin was proud of, but she couldn't understand anything except that he had become a bad person. So just ask honestly: "Well, you became an abomination, then what?"
"Then the plan I mentioned last time can be carried out smoothly." Jiang Lin said it as a matter of course, but Jiang Lin next to him was completely dumbfounded.
what's the plan?
But she didn't intend to ask. If you ask this guy, she will definitely keep nagging her for a long time, and her face will be lumpy.
So Jiang Lin just nodded: "Well. Then you go."
However, Jiang Lin still stayed in his position, and said solemnly: "But now, I need your help."
Coming: "?"
"I'm an abomination now, and I can't draw runes. I need you to draw some for me." Jiang Lin said seriously, and took out several sheets of leather of different sizes from the body made of mud. Jiang Lin was puzzled, but because he wanted to send him away quickly, he followed his advice.
While she was painting over there, Jiang Lin was still complaining, saying that she had been coming over for the past few days, but he couldn't find her. Jiang Lin didn't want to talk about it.
"I went to a domain. I stayed there for a few days." She angrily rolled up the leather with the runes painted on it, "Okay."
"Thank you, this is a good teammate." Jiang Lin hid the leather in his body contentedly, "Are you looking for food again? Did you get anything?"
Jiang Lin was not happy when he mentioned this matter, so he just said coldly that he didn't care about you. Seeing her like this, Jiang Lin reckoned that the car must have overturned, lowered his eyes to think for a moment, and wisely changed the subject.
What he didn't tell Jiang Lin was that he actually managed to sneak into Xing Xing's residence last night - strictly speaking, he sent a little clone and managed to sneak in.
The avatar is small and has only a little bit of power. It went down the sewer. Because it has been hidden in the sewer, the location is hidden, and the breath itself is weak, almost non-existent. In addition, Xing Xing didn't know why last night, and his spirit was not very good, which really made him hide it from the past, and obtained some useful information.
Including but not limited to the arrangement of the stars after hours. And the fact that she just brought out a high-level eternal day from an unknown domain.
If you share this matter with Jiang Lin, there is no doubt that he will definitely give you more help. Jianglin has always worked extraordinarily hard for a bite to eat. However, Jiang Lin thought about it for a long time, and he was still not willing to take the initiative to mention this matter.
First of all, he was still angry about Jiang Lin eating his dark chess. Secondly, the abominable thing that Yong Zhou tends to eat will definitely help her a lot... and Jiang Lin does not want this to happen.
The four of them are said to be one, but in fact there is still a competitive relationship between them. It is impossible to keep all the four consciousnesses in the end. Who can become the final main consciousness will most likely rely on strength or record.
He has already been weakened by Xu Tuoran once. Naturally, I don't want to be left behind too much by others.
Therefore, Jiang Lin quietly concealed the matter of the Chen-level abomination, and only took out some leather, and asked Jiang Lin to draw some specific runes on it. Jiang Lin's painting gradually became irritable, and when he returned the leather, he couldn't help but sarcastically said:
"Your current body shouldn't last long, right? Be careful, don't die on the road before you make a move."
"Don't worry. You can still survive."
Jiang Lin said leisurely, and carefully put away all the leather: "This time, I have put in so much effort for this plan... No matter what, I must die in front of her."
"I'll send it to the door and show it to her."
Time turns back to the present.
Xu Tuoran looked vigilantly at Jiang Lin who was sitting on the chair, the steps under his feet were still covered with a puddle of mud.
She actually felt that something was wrong - she couldn't tell what was wrong, but she just instinctively felt that Jiang Lin's current state and the feeling it gave her were quite weird.
No matter what, try to trap the person first to gain an advantage... Xu Tuoran settled down, raised his hand and hit the No. 7 ice and smashed it over. Jiang Lin, who was sitting on the chair, disintegrated into a puddle of mud in an instant, and fled to the side!
—The No. 7 ice crystallized, and only part of the sludge was frozen. The other side rushed to the side, pulled it up, and condensed into a human shape again, but it looked a little shorter than before.
Xu Tuoran frowned, and was about to chase after her, but the scene that made her look dazed appeared again——
I saw the re-formed clay figurine, took the gorgeous tutu skirt hanging on the back of the chair, the whole body melted into a lump, and poured it into it...
The skirt was bulging. He turned into a clay figurine in a fluffy princess dress.
…No, not right.
The scene in front of him suddenly shook. Xu Tuoran blinked vigorously, and looked intently, how can there be any princess dress?
Only a piece of soft leather was wrapped around the body of the clay figurine.
But this was not what shocked Xu Turan the most. What she really couldn't understand was the runes on the leather.
That's a set of runes. One confinement, one energy absorption.
This clay figurine like Jiang Lin wore these two sets of runes on his body.
What does he want?
Xu Tuoran was stunned for a moment, but she reacted quickly and said immediately: "I declare that any rune I see can't be played—"
Before the words were finished, the mud spread on the steps suddenly exploded. Xu Tuoran has been paying attention to the situation of this thing, and without thinking about it, he hit the No. 7 ice and smashed it over. At the same time, he jumped down from the steps and jumped back into the living room.
But with such an interruption, she couldn't finish reading the rule.
The moment she landed, something was thrown from under the mud and fell to her feet. Xu Tuoran instinctively took a step aside. When he landed, he obviously didn't see anything on the ground, but when he stepped on it, he found that he had stepped on another soft cloth.
— It was the pink wig that fell at her feet. And what she stepped on was another set of princess dress. It was the same outfit that "Jiang Lin" tried desperately to persuade her to put on when he pretended to be Zhu Tang.
There was another trance in front of him, Xu Tuoran shook his head and looked carefully, only to find that there had never been any wigs or clothes. It's all leather.
It's just that the same runes are drawn on these two pieces of leather.
— Convert runes.
Imprisonment, energy absorption, energy conversion.
A feeling of deja vu hit Xu Tuoran instantly, and the sound of his death value skyrocketing by 1,000 was heard at the same time. But before she had time to leave, the familiar feeling of dizziness surged up again.
Fall to the ground, fall asleep, fall into a dream. When she opened her eyes again, she was already in the path of chaos.
It's just that she is floating in mid-air at this moment. There was a mass of soft and wet things under his feet, constantly changing its shape in the deep twilight, and it was moving forward at a high speed.
There was a wind blowing from the front, which made Xu Tuoran unable to open his eyes. But she didn't need to open her eyes—she didn't even need to look, she could roughly guess what was going on.
What she stepped on was that puddle of mud, or in other words, the power from that puddle of mud. That power has now become her mount, her means of transportation, carrying her to fly on the Path of Chaos—just like Haunted House No. 71 back then.
...I have to say that even Xu Tuoran is an unconventional person, so he couldn't help but be surprised by Jiang Lin's operation at this moment.
No matter how hard she thought about it, she would never have guessed that the "send to death" that Jiang Lin said was actually "send to death" in a literal sense-this crazy man, he deliberately put on a hideous shell, just to warm himself The head was sent to her.
A set of conversion runes is tantamount to continuously transferring one's own power to Xu Tuoran. As for what will happen next, Xu Tuoran is too familiar with it—
She will race and speed on the chaotic path, making rapid progress and upgrading. Then, the moment the acquired power is exhausted...
It fell down with a snap.
...Yes, judging by the posture, it is estimated that it will be soon.
Xu Turan originally thought that he might just jump out of the car halfway, but the mud was moving too fast. But in a blink of an eye, she was already carried on her back, passing the gate between the Ju-level area and the Hui-level like a gust of wind.
In another blink of an eye, the bright spots of the Hui class are already within easy reach. Based on the principle that everyone has come, Xu Tuoran reached out and touched it by the way, and completed the leap from the torch level to the bright level on the spot, and the takeaway harvest is worth 1,000 for death.
However, she didn't show a happy expression at all. Instead, she hugged her head with her hands and began to adjust her body's center of gravity. And at the moment when the mud under his feet dissipated, he waved his hand down vigorously—
Unfortunately, the use of No. 7 ice failed. The expected ice ladder did not appear, only a thin layer of frost sprayed from the fingertips.
Xu Tuoran's body inevitably fell down. And until this moment, she finally confirmed thoroughly what Jiang Lin's plan was—
The moment her body began to fall, a strange black shadow appeared in her field of vision.
The black shadow was round, flat and huge. There are countless tentacles all over the body, and at this moment, several tentacles are flying alternately on the ground, and they are rushing towards Xu Furan with amazing strides.
— Carpenter Pro.
Xu Tuoran immediately corresponded to the name.
He made her level up on purpose. Let her enter the chaotic Hui-level realm. Fortunately, attack her here.
This guy is really—
Xu Tueran didn't know how to comment for a while, so he just pursed his lips tightly and silently curled up his falling body.
And on the other side—
Jiang Lin ran forward with tentacles, almost unable to restrain the excitement and joy that filled his body.
He succeeded!
He actually succeeded!
He just knew that all the hard work will be rewarded, and all the hard work is worth it—look, this is a success, isn't it!
He knew that in a few seconds, Xu Tuoran would fall heavily to the ground. Of course, this kind of injury is not fatal to her, but it is enough to force her to stay here, making her unable to move.
Then the next thing is very simple. This is the Hui-level area. It's his place.
Here, he can kill whoever he wants.
This method is indeed a bit despicable, but what's the point? It's an idiot if you don't use it, so just treat it as if he can't afford it.
The tentacles around the black shadow danced even more excitedly. It's a pity that he didn't dance twice, and curled up due to exhaustion, even he himself couldn't help slowing down.
…Forcibly making himself an abomination, this is not only inconvenient for him, but also brings considerable side effects. His limbs and hands are full of exhaustion now, if he hadn't been supported by the joy of success, he would have already collapsed on the ground.
But okay, it's all worth it. The fruit of success is ahead, as long as he succeeds this time, he will see who dares to question his authority—
?
Turning his gaze forward again, Black Shadow Craftsman's movements suddenly stopped. A question mark slowly floated up in his head.
Xu Turan... disappeared?
He was stunned for a moment, and all the tentacles around him rose up. Quickly waving the tentacled thing, he rushed forward with all his strength, and was even more dumbfounded when he reached the point where Xu Tuoran had just landed.
People are indeed gone.
It just disappeared out of nowhere.
The question is, why?
She cheated. She should be punished by upgrade space. It is impossible for her to leave here until she recovers.
Jiang Lin waved his tentacles and began to search around more actively. At this moment, there was a sound of breaking through the air above the head—
He raised his head in disbelief, just in time to meet Xu Tuoran's equally astonished gaze.
Xu Tuoran appeared again, falling from the sky. And it hit him very precisely. Jiang Lin was in a weak stage, and he didn't react much. He only heard a thud, and Xu fell to the ground in vain, and he was smashed into pieces as a black shadow.
The difference is that the shattered black shadow can still put itself together, but Xu Tuoran, who was slapped on the ground, can't move at all. Jiang Lin repaired his body as quickly as possible, and looked at Xu Tuoran who fell on the ground again, and the depression that had just been smashed was swept away immediately.
Xu Tuoran's situation at this time is more than a miserable word. His whole body was almost soaked in blood, and his long black hair spread out in a pool of blood, like lifeless grass.
Finally...Jiang Lin repeated the word in his heart for more than a few times, waving his tentacles, and cautiously leaned over.
Next, just one click, one click—
However, just after he raised the tentacles, the accident happened again.
Xu Tuoran, who was lying motionless on the ground, disappeared again.
Jiang Lin: "...?"
? ? ? ? !
at the same time.
In a dirty narrow alley.
The door of the rental house at the end opened, and a robot named Jason walked out with numb eyes.
And above his head, above the high walls on both sides of the alley. Xu Tuoran was sitting on the wall, swinging his feet unconsciously, nodding his chin in annoyance.
"It's a bit embarrassing now..." she muttered to herself, watching Jason walking down the alley. After a pause for a few seconds, he decided to try again.
"I want to leave here." She issued an order in her heart, "I want to exit the 'faith box'."
Almost at the moment when this thought came into being, a strong sense of falling came. She involuntarily closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she found that she had returned to the real living room.
However, she was only awake for a moment—before Xu Tuoran took any action, she was forced to fall into a coma again, and a familiar prompt sounded in her ears immediately.
"Congratulations, you have obtained 200 death points."
Two hundred death points. It is a regular check-in reward for logging into Path of Chaos. After the beep, there was severe pain. Xu Turan opened his eyes with difficulty, and found himself back in the path of chaos again.
Can't get out—she's consciously and resignedly aware of it.
Taking advantage of the characteristics of the belief box that "can only be entered deeply in a dream" and "automatically cancel the dream state after exiting", she can indeed use the belief box to forcibly wake up and return to reality. However, the path of chaos now operates another mechanism, even if she wakes up forcefully, it will drag her back in the next second.
Isn't this playing me?
Xu Furan thought dejectedly, and at the moment when the black shadow in front of him raised its tentacles towards him again, he resolutely launched the escape of faith—
But in the blink of an eye, she returned to the belief box.
To be precise, it is to a point of light in the belief box.
From the house at the end of the alley, Jason walked out again with numb and desperate steps. Xu Tuoran didn't care about him at all, he just covered his forehead and thought about countermeasures seriously.
According to previous experience, unless he enters the next area, his skinny skin is basically hopeless to grow well.
The problem is that there is still Jiang Lin... With his covetous look, he probably has to do it on the spot before he has climbed a few steps.
In other words, you have to find a way. Move to the next door as fast as you can while avoiding Jiang Lin's pursuit.
If you use props, it's not impossible. I just don’t know if the number of steps given by the props is enough to go directly to the next door...
Xu Turan pondered for a moment, then sighed helplessly, stretched his muscles and squeezed his fists at the same time.
"I can only gamble. It's amazing to fall again." She whispered and jumped off the wall.
Path of Chaos · Bright-level area.
Jiang Linqu squatted on the ground with a few tentacles, and was staring at the place where Xu Tuoran disappeared just now with fear and fear.
Hold on, hold on, don't panic. Just a little bit.
He comforted himself in his heart, and tried his best to suppress the uneasiness and panic caused by the stars disappearing out of thin air several times—what did he have to be afraid of? This is their territory.
She just managed to hide it. But no matter how she hides, she will always come back here. And Jiang Lin just observed it—the returned Xu Tuoran is still quite fragile, unable to heal himself and unable to move. Although some fancy things have been adjusted, the essence is still fish on the knife.
It's just that his own game experience will become worse. Chopping watermelon becomes whack-a-mole. But so what, the gopher shrank its head at most, and could still get up and run.
Jiang Lin comforted himself in his heart, changed his posture, and continued to squat on the spot.
Finally, there were some outlines on the land in front of him. Xu Tuoran's scarred body appeared before his eyes again.
Jiang Lin was overjoyed, screaming all over his body, and his first reaction was to use his tentacles to tie Xu Tuoran in place first, lest she disappear for no reason. Come on!
No, no... not from her power...
Jiang Lin was caught off guard, and was shocked by the force and took a few steps back. When he looked up again, a dense black mist had already filled his eyes.
In the mist, the ground trembled faintly. A huge silhouette stood up slowly, casting a mountain-like shadow.
"..." An inexplicable sense of oppression hit, and Jiang Lin instinctively curled up his tentacles all over his body. Just at this time, the fog cleared, he looked up, and the whole shadow suddenly choked.
I saw a giant standing in front of him.
A dark, lanky giant. When looking up, you can hardly see your head, you can only see the opponent's palm dragging in the air.
Wait... palms?
Jiang Lin was startled, jumped back a few times, and fixed his eyes on the giant's palm, feeling numb all over.
I saw Xu Tuoran lying softly on the giant's palm, holding an oil lamp in his hand, emitting a steady and bright light in the night.
Jiang Lin: "..."
But before he could take a closer look, the giant had already started to move.
Unfortunately, Jiang Lin happened to be one foot closer to him, and was directly carried away by the blown wind, rolling over the ground several times like a tumbleweed.
Gan.
At the moment when he finally stopped, there was only one sentence in his mind.
Why is this still open? Can't your uncle afford it? ?
