Ao Yaolin!
(Requesting monthly tickets!
Requesting followers!) “Hahaha, Mr.
Shu, I made it!” you chuckle and clap while standing in the bathroom.
You’re already a level 11 Alien Species Warrior, and you look so spirited that anyone who doesn’t know better would think you’ve broken the level 110 limit.
You head to your place and wake up Gu Pan, who’d fallen asleep again, and call for her to get going.
She erges from the blanket, groggy, her hair a ss, but it only takes a few grabs to style it into place.
You click your tongue in amazent, but she didn’t change her chest wrapping, which disappoints you a bit.
You two leave the shelter together and on the way, you see so of the shelter’s residents; the won radiate health, while the n appear listless, each showing different effects.
Seeing you swagger out as if it was the day before, so who had seen you couldn’t help but wonder if they had traveled back in ti to yesterday morning.
Surprised, they lower their heads and greet you, “Respected Transcendent sir, the moon was so full last night, did you sleep well?”
You hear them whispering about the baffling disappearance of Principal Yang Chong, you laugh but say nothing.
That’s when you notice, the heavily used jacks discarded outside the sealed door leading to the underground garage, but the iron gate you had secured remains immovable.
“A fish that escaped the net?” you think, flashing a knowing smile, realizing that those who knew where the problem lay were of a particular status, no need for more words.
From the looks of it, they must have tried to pry the door open but gave up and left.
You don’t care much, just a few rats escaping, but if there happens to be a clue, you don’t mind taking the ti to eradicate the problem completely.
You and Gu Pan reach the parking area outside, where today’s wind feels especially boisterous.
You see your car parked not far from the shelter’s gate, sared with so bloodstains, but there’s no corpse to be found.
You frown, sensing that there’s sothing more to the situation.
“Be careful, there’s a problem,” you warn Gu Pan and have her wait there.
You cautiously exit the gate, a steel rod in hand as a weapon, eyes unblinkingly fixed on the inside of the car, ready for any possible attack.
“Strange…” you see neither monsters nor enemies.
Just then, you suddenly feel the ground beneath your feet softening, and your feet sink in imdiately.
Damn, you’ve been trapped!
The ten-ter area at the door had sohow turned into quicksand without warning, plunging you deep and causing imnse pain in your legs.
The mud beneath the quicksand was corroding your body as if it were sulfuric acid.
You activate your skill: Jingwei!
In the deadly toxic quicksand where most would not survive a minute, you could last at least an hour thanks to your shield.
You struggle a few tis, and under your fearso strength, the whole quicksand pond vibrates, with waves of sand rolling.
But it’s no use; despite your imnse strength, you can’t defy the laws of physics.
You sink deeper and faster than most—the quicksand trap seems specifically designed to target Warriors.
Back at the shelter, the people look to one another; the usually normal entrance had beco a terrifying quicksand pit.
Frightened, they don’t dare co to your aid; instead, they scream and run back.
You curse silently.
But fate isn’t against you just yet.
Before your head is completely subrged, you see Gu Pan rushing over with a long rope.
She ties one end around her waist, stands on the edge of the quicksand, and throws the other end to you.
“Catch it!” she yells at you while firmly grasping the wall of the guardhouse to anchor herself, trying to pull you out.
Ah, her heart is certainly in the right place, not abandoning you at a ti like this.
Aren’t you touched?
You’re completely subrged, but you manage to grab the rope.
There’s still hope.
“Just hold on a little longer, and we’ll be out.” You pull hard on the rope, hoping it won’t be corroded by this strange quicksand.
…
The scene before Xu Shu turns into that pulsating blackness of obscured vision.
His nose and ears are filled with quicksand; it’s terribly uncomfortable, mostly due to the very real feeling of suffocation.
And under these circumstances, even “sit-ups” are impossible.
“What created this quicksand trap?
Where’s the enemy?”
Xu Shu, not the type to lose his cool despite the distress, ponders deeply.
anwhile, he keeps pulling on the rope, coordinating with Gu Pan in a desperate attempt at self-rescue.
You pull the rope hard; you must escape from this predicant quickly, or the situation will only worsen.
Suddenly, you hear a soft “ah” nearby, and then the tense rope in your hand suddenly goes slack.
Your heart sinks, thinking that could it be the situation looked too grim and she has abandoned ?
“You kept pulling the rope, and soon you had pulled the entire rope back, and at the sa ti, you felt a pair of tender, small legs.”
“?” You felt puzzled, and with your hands in the murky mud, you diligently followed the legs upward.
You touched soft, delicate thighs, then a soft, tight buttocks, and then a supple, boneless slender waist.
Indeed, this woman was made of water, her entire body was intolerably soft.
Finally, you also felt the bloody, sowhat prickly spinal bones, cut clean and neat.
“Ah, you have obtained the lower half of Gu Pan—Gu Dao.”
Xu Shu was stunned.
This ti, he saw an image of himself, buried in the sand, holding a half-corrupted corpse, which looked sowhat tragic.
“This woman seed to have been scheming against these past few days, and I never expected her to still stand up for at the crucial mont, fearlessly, truly a heroine among won.”
“As a comrade in battle, she’s extrely reliable.”
“Hmm, quite soft…”
Uncontrollably, Xu Shu squeezed the blood-drenched lower half of Gu Pan that he held in his embrace, feeling a strange anger brewing inside him.
“Beast…” you tried to curse, but your mouth was filled with quicksand.
At that mont, you heard vague screams coming from above.
“Ah!
Help, go away, get away~”, “Dad, save , there’s a monster!”, “Son!
Quick, get the knife, the knife ahhh…”
The intermittent screams completely erupted.
Soon, husbands and wives alike were yelling, followed by hundreds and thousands of people screaming; amidst explosive, gusty, pleading, and frantic sounds, the voices were unceasing.
It was a one-sided slaughter, without a Transcendent to lead them, humans were utterly defeated against the monsters.
The tragic screams persisted for at least half an hour, and you also endured for over half an hour.
Ultimately, your Jingwei was broken, and your entire body was corroded away until not even the bones remained.
In the monts before death, you faintly heard soone outside shouting furiously and hoarsely, “Ao!
Yao!
Lin!
Co out and face !”
You died, and this journey ended; settling accounts…
Evaluation: As the strongest force in the shelter (-15, 14), your imdiate action placed you in mortal peril, you did nothing, but at least it was okay.
Although you did nothing, you ended up embracing a beautiful woman, lucky in love indeed.
You received an item: Voldemort (Common)
Voldemort (Common): When used, you enter the Voldemort state, which allows you to lie down and ambush your enemies.
The first attack in this state will have an additional “corrosion” effect.
If you can find a position lower than the ground, the attack gains additional speed and strength.
Today’s opening number: 2/3
…
“Fuck!
Why are there monsters again, didn’t we clear the field yesterday—”
“Ugh!”
Xu Shu retched twice, feeling as if sothing stuck in his esophagus; it took him a while to recover.
“Is sothing targeting us?”
“Could it be that last night’s bizarre ritual, although not ultimately successful, attracted the attention of so other monster?”
“Perhaps not!
Ao Yaolin…
could it be that there’s actually a Transcendent in the shelter, and it’s his enemy who has co knocking?”
“We can’t rule out that possibility!”
He had almost completely blacked out during the recent journey, Xu Shu saw nothing, only to be covertly killed in the quicksand.
The information he received was indeed scant.
This made his slight pride in his own strength completely disappear.
The enemy doesn’t have to be strong; just need that kind of drug with peculiar abilities, a little trick, and getting caught would lead to death!
“Being able to create a quicksand trap about ten ters wide, what kind of monster is that?”
“No, we can’t waste ti, we must respond imdiately, or else we’ll die here, damn it.”
“Let that Ao Yaolin co out too, since it’s trouble he caused.
If he continues to hide and watch from behind at this ti, he can’t bla for being rude.”
Xu Shu’s brows furrowed deeply as he quickly strode toward his previous dwelling, knocking on Gu Pan’s door while again summoning the Tai Chu Scroll and entering the journey mode.
“Checking current status…”
