I'll be done soon! Five minutes. "
"Huh?"
Not long after, Lin Sanjiu spat out the same word.
Lin Sanjiu, who was running for her life, suddenly felt that something was amiss. She couldn't suppress her curiosity and turned her head to look in Puppeteer's direction. Soon, she couldn't hold back her laughter. She laughed as she ran, "Oh no, oh no, I've offended him even more … Hahaha!"
A female mannequin with a blank expression chased after Lin Sanjiu. Just as she got close to Lin Sanjiu, Lin Sanjiu slapped the mannequin's arm. [A Twinkle in the Sky] was activated. The female mannequin's expression remained unchanged as she shot into the sky. Soon, she became a bright dot in the sky.
"The 36th!" Lin Sanjiu laughed heartily. She shouted at her pursuers, "You guys, run faster! Try your best to catch up! Your master can't move, so it's all up to you guys now! "
That's right, Puppeteer couldn't move now.
Although Puppeteer looked flustered and exasperated, he wasn't running slowly. Compared to his leisurely demeanor earlier, it was clear that he was serious. However, no matter how hard he ran, he was like a hamster on a roller. He could only run on the same spot. He couldn't run even a meter.
"So, this is what the 'chicken' is referring to!"
Hai Tianqing's ability, [Fitness Trainer's Glory Treadmill]
Description: After activation, the ground one square meter under the enemy's feet will automatically turn into a running treadmill. The treadmill is set to the highest speed and the steepest incline. No matter how hard the enemy runs, he can only stay in the same spot.
After sending another two mannequins flying, Lin Sanjiu jumped to the high ground and saw that the black dot representing Puppeteer had suddenly stopped running. His body retreated at an extremely fast speed. He seemed to have discovered something special about the ground under his feet. He immediately gave up moving forward and waited for the "treadmill" to push him down.
It was true that Puppeteer was pushed down, but for someone of Puppeteer's level, he fell to the ground like a horse. That was not the end of it. Puppeteer's body continued to slide backward, and it looked like he was about to fall into the sea.
Note: Fitness trainers hate lazy students the most. The person who tried to stand still and was pushed off the treadmill by the conveyor belt would be forced to fall once. Then, a new treadmill would be generated from the place where he fell, and so on until the target obediently ran for 10 minutes. Only then would the treadmill disappear.
PS: You can't run sideways, your ribs will be forced to hit the handrail.
Lin Sanjiu was thrilled to be able to defeat such a dangerous person. She picked up her pace, and as the wind whistled past her, the scenery around her receded rapidly. She only slowed down when she realized that her surroundings had quietened down.
After the series of feints and sharp turns, Lin Sanjiu had successfully shaken off all the mannequins. At this moment, the world was so quiet that it was as if she was the only one left.
"Where … is this place?" She gasped and looked around in confusion.
Not a trace of human civilization could be seen.
She was standing on a dried-up piece of land, and the land was covered with rocks, mud, puddles, and swamps of various shapes and sizes. Behind her was a blood-red setting sun. She could only hear the wind whistling in her ears. This was not the human world at all. It was as if the city ruins and the fright at the pier were just a dream.
Lin Sanjiu looked down at the seaweed that was as dry as paper under her boots, the deserted seashells, and the cracked black boulders. "Is this the bottom of the sea?"
It turned out that she had run into the sea without realizing it.
She couldn't go back to land for the time being. The mannequins who were chasing after her were probably all over Salt Flat Port. Lin Sanjiu turned around and looked at the long trail of footprints she had left on the seabed. After some thought, she summoned her [Cat Litter] and turned it into a card.
Five liters of cat litter appeared out of thin air. Lin Sanjiu almost hugged it.
[Cat Litter]
Description: Feline animals will bury their excrement with soil to cover their scent and tracks after they defecate. Even though the color of this bag of cat litter is different from the environment, it can still magically cover the user's tracks.
Usage: Sprinkle a thin layer of cat litter on the places you have walked or been. Even the best hounds won't be able to find you.
"Is this … really effective?" Lin Sanjiu walked forward as the cat litter in her hand fell to the ground. The cat litter seemed to have a mind of its own. It automatically covered the places where she had left her footprints, so the footprints were indeed covered. However, the cat litter was bright orange, which was out of place with the color of the seabed. It looked very dazzling, which made her wonder if it had the opposite effect.
After she cleaned up most of her tracks, she raised her head and looked around.
Even after it had dried up, the seabed still gave off an eerie vibe that was completely different from land. There were large dried sea anemones on the rocks, which still retained their vibrant colors. Shells as big as a human head were half-submerged in the wet sand with their mouths open. However, there were no longer any fishes swimming around in the dense white undersea trees.
Perhaps it was because of the thick layer of salt that was left on the ground after the seawater evaporated, many animal carcasses did not turn into charcoal. Instead, under the protection of the salt, the carcasses remained intact.
Lin Sanjiu tried to poke a dead fish on the ground. Unexpectedly, her finger did not meet any resistance. In the blink of an eye, it sank into a pile of slimy, mud-like substance. Then, a foul stench wafted out from the hole she poked.
"As expected, it can't be eaten …" Lin Sanjiu wiped her hand on the salt in disgust. She was a little worried. Since Puppeteer had occupied the dock where they stored their food, she could not go back. The only way out now was to continue deeper into the ocean. However, there was no food or clean water here …
Fortunately, Lin Sanjiu had converted a box of chocolates and a box of coffee into cards when she was packing the containers. They should be enough to last them for some time. However, she did not know if B.Rabbit and the others could survive without food. Had Puppeteer caught up with them?
When she thought of Puppeteer, she gritted her teeth and continued deeper into the ocean.
Not long after Lin Sanjiu's shadow disappeared from the shallow waters, a whale that had been lying on the sand for an unknown period of time suddenly moved. It had been dead for an unknown period of time, and its stomach had almost turned into mud.
"Crash!" A hole suddenly burst open on the whale's loose and rotten head. Two figures, one tall and one short, crawled out from inside. Both of them were covered in a thick layer of rotten whale flesh that looked like black sludge. The smell was extremely pungent. They looked around cautiously. When they saw that Lin Sanjiu had indeed gone far away, the shorter one quickly wiped his face with his hands, flinging a large amount of black mud off his face and body.
"Brother Tie, do you have to do this?" He grumbled indignantly, "That woman doesn't have three heads and six arms. You could have just gone up and talked to her. Why did you have to hide in the whale's stomach?"
As he spoke, he shook his leg, and the black mud fell off, revealing the school uniform pants underneath.
"What do you know?!" Tie Dao was a little embarrassed when he heard that. "Do you think she's just an ordinary woman? She's just a kid … Let me tell you, I met her two months after the world was destroyed. "
"What happened after that?" The teenager was still a little indifferent.
Tie Dao sighed and found a large patch of dried seaweed. As he wiped his body, he said, "At that time, I met her at a human base called 'Oasis'. It was a huge place with more than a thousand people. By the way, did you see B.Rabbit and that big guy next to her? They were the officers of Oasis at that time. I don't know how they got together with her … Sigh, back to the story. Before that woman appeared, everything was normal in Oasis. There were more and more people, and it was getting more and more prosperous. However, after she appeared, in less than two weeks, not even a single brick was left in Oasis. "
The teenager was stunned, "What happened?"
Iron Sword briefly recounted how the duoluozhong massacred the oasis and how Lin Sanjiu used her silver net to annihilate the entire base. When he saw that Lin Sanjiu was still in a daze, Iron Sword concluded with a "trust me" expression, "... When I saw her at the pier, my vision went black. I knew that nothing good would happen here. See, my hunch was right! My mom used to tell me that there are some women in this world who are born to be a jinx. They die when they come into contact with death … "
The teenager's expression darkened. Perhaps he was thinking about his sister, whom he did not manage to save in time. Tie Dao glanced at him and patted his shoulder, sighing, "Let bygones be bygones. In any case, if you see that Lin Sanjiu again, you must stay as far away as possible … "
As the two of them talked, they walked towards the land. They did not notice that not far away, there was a person buried deep in the seabed, which was covered with sand and salt.
It was not accurate to call it a person because the only part of his face that was not covered with sand and sand was a pair of dull, lifeless eyes. His red lips were curled sluggishly, forming a stiff smile.
The moonlight cast a silvery glow over what used to be the sea and what used to be the human territory.
"So, that Growth-type is called Lin Sanjiu? After thirty minutes, Puppeteer pressed a finger against his temple and asked softly, "Did you land there after she sent you flying?"
"Yes, father," the plastic mannequin, who was still covered with sand and sea salt, replied. Beside it were hundreds of identical plastic mannequins. They stood silently behind Puppeteer, and all of them had the same dull look in their eyes.
Puppeteer glanced at the mannequin and suddenly laughed, "Then, why were you hiding underground?"
"Lin Sanjiu's combat ability is very strong. I saw her kill many other puppets with my own eyes. If I appeared alone, I would not stand a chance. I thought that I could get more information from the other two if I kept hiding," the plastic mannequin replied without stopping.
"That makes sense." Puppeteer's pale fingers waved in the air as if he was playing an invisible musical instrument. "Oh right, when people speak, there are intonations and pauses. Come on, try it. "
The plastic mannequin opened its mouth, but it did not speak smoothly. It was the first time it tried to speak like this, so it seemed to be struggling, "Yes, father …"
Puppeteer's eyes lit up. He placed his hand on the mannequin's head, "That's amazing! You can actually break a sentence on your first try! If you continue like this, you will soon become smarter and more like a real person. "
"Thank … Thank you, father …"
The next second, the head of the plastic mannequin that sounded grateful was crushed by Puppeteer. Pieces of the mannequin's head rolled off its neck and shoulders and fell to the ground, revealing its white inner stubble. Without its head, the plastic mannequin fell to the ground with a thud under the dumbfounded gazes of its fellow puppets.
"What a pity. I don't need a living person, just a dummy. If you had charged forward like a fearless puppet, I would have been able to locate her even if you were destroyed … "Puppeteer took out a white handkerchief and wiped the pieces of the mannequin's head between his fingers. Without turning his head, he instructed," When you return to the Twelve Worlds Centrum, send someone to check the Consular Officer System and see if there are any records of Lin Sanjiu's name. If there are any, tell me immediately. "
Once Lin Sanjiu entered the vast ocean, even Puppeteer would not have a good way to find her. However, as long as she was still alive and had a visa issued by a Consular Officer, her name would be recorded in the Consular Officer System. By that time, it would be easy for Puppeteer to find Lin Sanjiu.
"Yes." A burly man with rough skin and a scar on his face replied. He was definitely not a plastic mannequin. However, his eyes were still as empty as before.
"If she is smart, she will hope that she starves to death in the depths of the ocean," Puppeteer laughed. Half of his face scrunched up. "Otherwise, she will regret it. No one can die a natural death after humiliating Puppeteer."
