Free Web NovelWhat was that just now?
Damn it, a relative of the Old man from Half-Mountain Apartment?
Lu Yibei spent one and three-quarters of a second doubting her life, and then the atmosphere started to become subtle.
The fishy smell lingering in the air grew increasingly strong, and faint sounds of something moving back and forth on the wasteland outside could be heard, the footsteps chaotic, as if several people were walking with the same hand and foot.
"Crack—crack—!"
The entire chimney outer wall wreckage was shaking, and light sounds kept coming from above. The bricks and stones, long eroded by weathering, seemed unable to bear the weight and could shatter and collapse at any moment.
The monster lurking outside seemed to want to use this method of continuously applying psychological pressure to its prey to make the prey panic, leave its hiding place, and walk into the trap.
In this atmosphere so tense it was almost suffocating, Lu Yibei took several deep breaths, forcing herself to calm down slightly to deal with the crisis before her.
Just then, that inexplicable thought, after a brief silence, appeared in her mind again.
Devil Woman, it charged over!
(〃'▽'〃)
Lu Yibei rubbed her forehead, "..."
Wait, you can actually send text with your bullet comments?
Then why didn't you say so earlier? What's the use of saying it now?
Instead of being a backseat driver, you might as well help me think of a solution.
As if responding to Lu Yibei's inner complaint, another thought flashed through her mind.
(ง•_•)ง
Trample it, abuse it, insult it!
Lu Yibei, "..."
Wait! Are you sure it's not me who's going to be trampled, abused, and insulted?
Lost in thought, she looked at the pitch-black wasteland outside, furrowing her brows.
But, in this situation, there's no time to worry. Isn't it time to gamble and see if a bicycle can turn into a hearse?
It's like encountering a tiger alone in the wild; you're going to die either way, so you might as well try to resist. That way, you'll die with a bit more dignity...
What's more, at Half-Mountain Apartment, I already successfully counter-killed that Old man, so maybe I can achieve a counter-kill this time too.
At this thought, a ruthless look suddenly flashed in her dark red eyes.
She tightened her grip on the toilet plunger in her hand, stood up murderously, spread her legs apart, and assumed a charging stance.
Listening carefully to the sounds constantly coming from above, the moment she heard the monster's movement and it moved away from her slightly, she tensed her leg muscles, pushed off forcefully with her toes, and ran forward with all her might.
Today, either you kill me, or I kill you! Lu Yibei thought fiercely.
————
Under the dim night sky, a hideous monster lay prostrate on the scattered chimney remnants on the wasteland, crawling back and forth.
Its sharp, hook-like claws scraped against the bricks and stones, emitting a sound that made one's teeth ache.
"Whoosh—!" A fierce gust of wind suddenly erupted.
Along with the wind, a slender figure darted out from the broken walls, arcing through the air and landing several meters away.
As if not expecting its prey to have such agile movements, the monster froze for a moment.
It wasn't until the figure ran towards the depths of the factory without looking back that it snapped back to reality and let out a low roar.
Its six limbs suddenly exerted force, accompanied by the splashing of shattered soil and rocks, and the hideous figure instantly shot out like a cannonball, chasing after Lu Yibei.
————
"Roar—!"
A beast-like roar came from behind, and Lu Yibei's hair instantly stood on end. She couldn't help but quicken her pace, forcefully pushed off with her legs, and leaped forward.
The power unleashed by this body the moment she rushed out of her hiding place surpassed her imagination.
She covered a distance of several meters in a single sprint, which was probably not much slower than the monster's speed of twenty to thirty meters per second.
Faster, even faster. At this speed, as long as I charge out of the lime factory in one go, I should be able to shake it off. Lu Yibei thought excitedly.
The next moment, she realized she had celebrated too early.
"Clang—!"
Accompanied by a dull thud, her foot suddenly stepped into empty space, immediately giving Lu Yibei a brand new life realization of the idiom "to weave a cocoon for oneself." ƒreewebɳovel.com
As she flew down to land, she stepped on the edge of a loosened manhole cover.
The unevenly supported manhole cover immediately bounced up from the ground, spinning in the air like a tossed coin.
And at the same time, her body lost its balance and tilted towards the ground.
Just then, her brow suddenly throbbed, and a strange thought flashed through her mind.
【It attacked from the back left】
Back left? Lu Yibei was stunned for a moment. Before she could figure out the source of that thought, she heard the sounds of crumbling earth and rocks mixed with the harsh sound of twisting metal ringing out from the roof of the building to her back left, entering her ears.
Along with a series of chaotic sounds, Lu Yibei's mood instantly plummeted to rock bottom.
She couldn't see the enemy, but the fierce wind and suffocating stench that assailed her constantly reminded her that the enemy was approaching at a speed of several meters per second...
Danger was closing in!
It's over, I'm dead for sure this time! Lu Yibei thought.
Just then, her eyes suddenly burned, her brain ached, and a scene from a dream memory began to gradually become clear in her mind.
...
"Granddaughter-in-law, do you know why this sword move is called 'Wind Chaser's Command'?" A man with an extraordinary temperament said to her.
"Why?"
"Hehe! Watch this!" The man chuckled twice, and a simple, ancient long sword suddenly appeared in his hand. He took a step forward, raised his hand, and unleashed a brilliant flurry of sword shadows.
...
"'Taihe Gentleman Sword Illustration'..." Lu Yibei murmured unconsciously. At this moment, the reality of the dream memory deepened invisibly for her.
In an instant, the passage of time seemed to slow down. She could clearly feel the vibrations brought by the wind blowing across her skin.
In a trance, the figure of that young man overlapped with hers.
Following that, her body suddenly moved on its own, as if by reflex.
Her palm slammed onto the ground, making her body, which was about to fall, rise again.
In the brief moment she was airborne, her body suddenly bent like a bow, using her torso's strength to somersault in the air. Then, as she descended, she kicked the manhole cover in mid-air with both legs, adjusted her direction, and flew sideways, avoiding the attack coming from behind and landing steadily.
The series of movements was fluid and smooth, as if she had practiced similar situations with someone hundreds or thousands of times, forming muscle memory.
The moment she landed, she lunged forward, meeting the black shadow coming from behind. Just as their figures were about to intersect, she smoothly sent out the... toilet plunger in her hand.
"???"

The monster froze, confusion appearing in its dozens of fierce, burning eyes.
Following that, Lu Yibei's voice drifted into its ears, creating even greater confusion.
"There's nothing strange about it! Who says a toilet plunger can't kill someone?"
The next moment, under its gaze, that toilet plunger, bathed in moonlight, transformed into a simple, broken sword...
————
The dark clouds in the sky had dispersed at some point, and the moon peeked out, casting silver moonlight onto the ground.
Under the moonlight, that toilet plunger gleamed with a dazzling cold light. As Lu Yibei's wrist vibrated with an indescribable rhythm, a sword shadow erupted.
"Taihe Gentleman Sword · Wind Chaser's Command!"
Lingtai Pure Karma cleanly sliced through the monster's cheek. With Lu Yibei's roar, it was violently pulled, tearing apart his lips, tongue, and teeth, and emerging from the side of his mouth on the other cheek.
The movement was as swift as wind, as fast as lightning.
"Ow—!"
The monster cried out in pain. Before it could react, Lu Yibei, still in mid-air, directly pressed one hand onto its shoulder, kicked its raised arms with both legs, used the momentum to spin around, and plunged the sword blade into its neck with a backhand move.
"Puff—!"
Accompanied by the dull thud of flesh tearing, the sword blade emerged from the other side of the monster's neck, and then...
Her wrist turned, and the sword blade slashed horizontally, drawing a clear arc of light.
Decapitation!
The dull thud of flesh tearing and the crisp sound of bone shattering rang out simultaneously, merging together.
Under the moonlight, a head with vacant eyes, along with the dark red blood gushing like a fountain, flew up from the monster's shoulders, arcing in a parabola, and heavily Smash onto the ground.
"Bang—!"
Lu Yibei, who landed almost at the same time as the monster's head, looked in the direction the sound came from, panting heavily and frowning.
I did it, I really counter-killed that monster, but...
How did I do it?
Aside from the movements looking like they were done with wires and special effects, it was as simple as killing a chicken... Lu Yibei thought with surprise and uncertainty.
At this moment, she felt like she had been a loser for nineteen years, and then suddenly one day, she discovered that she was actually the reincarnation of the XX Dragon King, capable of wreaking havoc with {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} every move. This feeling was so exhilarating it was almost a cranial orgasm.
"Also, did I really kill so many urban legend?" Lu Yibei murmured, "No, definitely not. Those dream memories are fake. I'm such a kind and lovely person!"
Hmm, the dream memories of killing and arson are fake, but the others can be temporarily considered true... Lu Yibei added in her mind.
Immediately after, she suddenly realized something very important—finishing the job!
She had seen too many stories where the villain boss "starts like a war god, ends up in a lone grave," and the reason for this was mostly that they left the protagonist alive after defeating them the first time.
If they had cremated, scattered the ashes, and performed a full funeral service for the protagonist the first time they defeated him at the beginning, wouldn't there be so much trouble?
However, why am I identifying with the villain boss instead of the protagonist?
Uh... never mind, that's not important. What's important is finishing the job!
Thinking this, Lu Yibei turned around and raised the Lingtai Pure Karma in both hands towards the corpse beside her.
Just then, the headless corpse lying on the ground suddenly moved.
Following that, the blood gushing from the Section of its neck quickly gathered together, forming tendrils that dragged the corpse, crawling quickly towards the head not far away.
On the other side, the bloody head that had fallen into the weeds also struggled, bouncing on the ground with a "bang bang bang" sound, which was particularly eerie.
"Holy crap! Zombie?"
Lu Yibei's heart leaped. She chased after it in a few steps and pierced the headless corpse's chest with a "puch" of her sword, pinning it to the ground.
Watching the headless corpse pinned to the ground and struggling, she opened her mouth, preparing to chant a spell and cast a Spell to finish the job, when that inexplicable thought flashed through her mind again.
Yay! Devil Woman, great victory!
٩(๑>◡<>
Here it comes again? Endless... Lu Yibei muttered to herself, reorganized her thoughts, and prepared to unleash a Spell. Just then, she suddenly remembered the information that strange thought had conveyed to her earlier.
"Trample it, abuse it, insult it... Wouldn't that be a bit inhumane?" She frowned slightly, muttering, "Alright, let's exclude the insult part!"
"Just pure trampling and abuse will do. I also want to try out the various abilities of this body. But how can I trample and abuse it without being insulting? Ah, I got it!"
"Big brother, you're so handsome! I want to slide down your nose bridge, I want to swing on your eyelashes, you're as handsome as a jade tree, brave and mighty, invincible in the world, supreme only to you, I wish you happiness as vast as the East Sea, longevity as high as the Southern Mountains, flourishing business, and abundant wealth..."
As Lu Yibei spoke, she rubbed a ball of Red Flame Flash in her hand and sent it towards the headless corpse on the ground. Immediately after, she followed up with a powerful healing Spell, Six Flower Bell Sound.
Without any warning, feeling the sudden surge of heat and the subsequent warmth as strong as spring sunlight, the headless corpse on the ground suddenly stiffened.
The head that had fallen in the distance also cast a confused look at her.
"???"
Are you sure you excluded the insult part? Isn't this even more insulting?
So, Lu Yibei began the cycle of attack Spell, healing Spell, sealing Spell, attack Spell, healing Spell...
————
A moment later.
Lu Yibei walked dejectedly towards the huge chimney remnants.
The enemy was dead, and she felt guilty.
She had finally caught a sandbag to practice on, but she accidentally made it disposable. What a waste!
"If only I hadn't tried that'Sky Piercing Cannon' or whatever it was called, I could have tried a few more skills..." Lu Yibei muttered to herself.
"One Spell and there's not even ash left, not even a chance to cast a healing Spell..."
"Sigh—!"
Sighing, Lu Yibei raised her right hand and looked at the toilet plunger in her hand, frowning.
And this toilet plunger.
It did turn into a broken sword just now and even killed a urban legend. Why did it change back now?
Moreover, Lingtai Pure Karma and toilet plunger...
Lu Yibei pondered for a moment, unable to think of any stronger connection between the two, other than the fact that both names have four characters.
Thinking aimlessly as she walked.
Unknowingly, Lu Yibei had returned to the ruins of the huge chimney behind the second workshop.
The successful counter-kill just now gave her immense confidence, finally giving her the courage to take out her phone for illumination.
Using the light from her phone, she searched the wasteland for a while and soon found several red bricks scattered on the ground, carved with strange characters.
"This is it. I'll take it back to study..."
As she spoke, Lu Yibei picked up a few red bricks, put them into her backpack, then narrowed her eyes and looked towards the depths of the lime factory, in the direction of the comprehensive building.
It's about time. Let's go see what that thing that keeps calling out to me is... Lu Yibei thought, her gaze slightly focused.
