Free Web NovelChapter 79: Chapter 79: The Turbulent Death Flight
Bai Wu’s punch indeed went awry because he never had confidence in smashing the crystal in one blow.
Even before the battle began, he had calculated that the finishing blow had to be delivered by the captain.
He used his Evil Fallen transformed body to perfectly block the mummy’s line of sight.
At the same time, his shoulder was positioned right at the mummy’s weak spot! fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Wu Jiu couldn’t see where the weak point was, but he understood Bai Wu’s intention and struck with his strongest cutting force, aiming right for Bai Wu’s shoulder!
The long-accumulated strike thundered down! At the instant Bai Wu’s punch missed, a tyrannical blade force sliced right through Bai Wu’s entire right arm.
A level seven mutated Evil Fallen body was naturally tough but couldn’t withstand Wu Jiu’s blade at all. freёwebnoѵel.com
So much so that after cutting off Bai Wu’s right arm, the momentum of the blade still rapidly passed through the left side of the mummy’s waist.
To be precise, not at a single point on the left, but a straight line from top to bottom!
The mummy let out a painful and piercing roar as all its bandages suddenly burst apart! Its entire body was horrifically sliced in two by the blade!
It couldn’t imagine that a level seven Evil Fallen would feign an attack at the cost of an arm to create an opportunity for a human!
Nor could it understand when the Evil Fallen had discovered its weak spot!
Watching the core hidden beneath the bandages shatter, Bai Wu didn’t wait long and prepared to use Taotie without delay.
But to his surprise.. the mummy’s body simply dissolved like loose powder, and as Bai Wu touched those ashes, they felt like mirages.
Only the broken bandages, no longer driven by some mysterious power, fell inch by inch onto the cargo hold floor.
[Those bandages are not its body, merely Spirit Possession artifacts. Although you killed the Guardian of the region, I have to tell you some bad news—the Reincarnation will not stop, it will come back. However, you might be able to use the Doomsday Fragment to find a new way out.]
Bai Wu remained calm, even though this maneuver might be equated to a cooked duck flying away—losing the prey at the very end.
But from the note, there still seemed to be hope.
"Reincarnation won’t stop, what does that mean?"
"Could it be that killing it... after the plane explodes, its death will be reset too? Isn’t that...unsolvable?"
If Reincarnation hadn’t ended, it meant the spatial-temporal rules hadn’t changed, and Return Roulette still couldn’t establish contact with High Tower.
Bai Wu turned to Wu Jiu:
"Captain, try the roulette. See if you can get back to High Tower now."
"If I return, what will you do?" With the mummy dead, the effects of Evil Thought Parasitism also vanished.
Wu Jiu, although still in an angry state, had become much calmer.
"I naturally have my ways, hurry and try!"
With only one hundred twenty seconds left, Wu Jiu also knew time was pressing and chose to trust Bai Wu.
He activated the Return Roulette, but as Bai Wu had guessed, Return Roulette was still ineffective.
"No luck, the Return Roulette is still unresponsive."
Wu Jiu hung his head, looking somewhat defeated.
With the Reincarnation not ending, even Bai Wu felt a wave of fatigue.
If they really had to stay forever with a bunch of Evil Fallen in a six-minute loop, where even death was an unreachable escape... it was indeed too horrifying to contemplate.
Bai Wu didn’t plan to give up. The Reincarnation would not let the mummy die, and in over a hundred seconds, it would become the ruler of this region once again.
But the situation still changed—the Doomsday Fragment had fallen.
Bai Wu remembered something... the Spirit Possession of the wristwatch hadn’t become invalid with Reincarnation.
Reincarnation hadn’t reset the Spirit Possession of the wristwatch, which means that objects are not within the scope of Reincarnation but follow the world rules of the main timeline.
Among the fragments of broken bandages, Bai Wu found that Doomsday Fragment.
Wu Jiu looked at the object in Bai Wu’s hands and was once again reminded of the Evil Fallen that had previously tormented him.
That Evil Fallen also emitted the same aura, and only then did he understand that it wasn’t that the aura of Evil Fallen was similar, but that they carried some similar object.
"What is this?"
"An item that can help us leave."
There were only about one hundred and something seconds left, but Bai Wu’s expression, while staring at the object in his hands, suddenly went from slightly tired to excited.
"Captain, try shooting through the cabin wall, we can leave by jumping ships."
"We’ve already tried this method, have you forgotten?"
"Try it again, quickly! Just aim at the cabin wall!"
Wu Jiu was puzzled, he was all set for the next round, but seeing Bai Wu’s face light up with excitement, he also suddenly felt some anticipation.
The piece in Bai Wu’s hands was no longer an eye, ear, nose, or mouth, but a finger, a ring finger.
[Wow, you’ve obtained another Doomsday Puzzle Fragment. Within the adjacent five areas, there are another four fingers and a palm. Collect them all, and you’ll be able to free these six areas. Of course, as usual, the palm is also part of another puzzle.
Through this experience, you must have realized that some areas are still too soon for you. Now, rack your brains and find a way to leave. Oh, I forgot to tell you, the ability corresponding to the ring finger puzzle is to invalidate the area rules, but it doesn’t include the powers of Evil Fallen.]
Invalidate the area rules, but not including the powers of Evil Fallen, which means that even the Doomsday Fragment couldn’t undo the effects of Reincarnation.
Legendary Mutation Entries are indeed...a very imba existence.
But at least, by the literal meaning, the fragment seems to be able to make this plane normal. Area rules should also include the rule that the scene is indestructible.
Wu Jiu swung his blade again.
This swing was far less spectacular than when he had slain the mummy; previously, his countless strikes couldn’t even leave a mark on the cabin wall.
But this time, after Wu Jiu swung his blade, the cabin wall appeared incredibly fragile and directly crumbled.
He looked at this scene in confusion.
Outside the High Tower area, some scenes could be destroyed, while others couldn’t be damaged no matter what, Wu Jiu had tested this countless times before.
This was the first time he had seen a scene that was originally indestructible suddenly become so frail.
"What’s going on? Is it related to the thing in your hand?"
"That’s not the point, there’s no time to explain right now, I’ll explain everything to you, Captain, once we’re back. For now, we need to go back first—if we leave the range of the airplane, we can use the Return Roulette!" Bai Wu exclaimed.
Wu Jiu nodded, his excitement rising as well. He slashed several more times consecutively, and the cargo cabin’s entire cabin wall couldn’t withstand such terrifying slashes, coupled with the air pressure at high altitudes, it completely collapsed.
The airflow from the high altitudes surged like an onrush of tidal waves, but it was also like a strong beam of light piercing into the depths of the darkness.
The air pressure instantly turned the cargo cabin into a wind tunnel, and the entire massive airplane began to bobble and shake.
In the cockpit, the Starfish Head Evildoer and the Sponge Head Evildoer, who had been flying planes for seven hundred years, wore blank expressions.
It wasn’t just them—all the Evil Fallen who felt the massive turbulence were shocked, as if a program that had run countless times suddenly popped up an unseen alert!
This was the first time they had experienced such turbulence!
