Oh my god, it's hard to imagine that I actually managed to persist for another two days...
Today, I went to eat grilled fish. I wonder if they put poppy shells in their house...
Her ears felt like they were covered by a thick layer of something. She couldn't hear anything clearly. When she wiped it with her hand, a layer of sticky blood came out. After a while, Rena could faintly hear her own heavy panting. It was as if her breathing was pounding against that layer of skin.
The dim star in the sky was still there and had not disappeared. It could be seen through the crack.
She struggled to push the heavy concrete slab away from her body.
The steel bar protruding from the concrete slab was terrifyingly sharp. It almost pierced her face. Rena panted as she crawled out of the rubble. She was prepared to collapse due to exhaustion. However, after taking two steps, she realized that the bleeding in her abdomen had already stopped.
Her white socks were so dirty that their original color could no longer be seen. They were now torn and hung on her legs. However, the girl's smooth calves were getting stronger and more stable with each step she took. Soon, she started jogging.
Not far behind Rena, there was a scene of the sky and earth collapsing.
Four to five buildings in the vicinity were destroyed by the power of the twenty Ripple Spheres. They were blown to smithereens in mid-air and rained down on the ground like a tsunami. Logically speaking, the two posthumans who were at the center of the explosion should not have been spared.
In fact, Hannie's body had already exploded before the buildings collapsed on her. None of the pieces of flesh that splattered out were larger than a fingernail. They were so smashed that they looked like they had been squeezed out of a juicer. However, Rena, who was on the brink of death, was still alive for some reason.
The moment Hannie died, the restraining power of [Truth or Dare] disappeared. Rena could still remember that she had lifted her head in a daze and glanced at the huge buildings that had collapsed. The next moment, she could not help but run away into the distance.
Later, she vaguely remembered that when she was about to run out of the danger zone, she was hit in the back by the flying concrete slab. Then, he blacked out and only woke up now.
Rena had no idea how long she had been unconscious. Lin Sanjiu looked up and saw that the building that Derik and Lin Sanjiu were in had also collapsed. There was no one around them.
At this moment, her heart felt like it was being roasted on fire. She madly ran to the opposite side of the road not far away. After looking around, he pounced on a manhole cover.
Rena lifted the manhole cover with a loud clang and threw it to the side. The teenage girl crouched down to take a look. Rena was still lying in the pitch-black manhole with a pale face. His eyes were shut and his breathing was steady.
Rena immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
Zhu Mingchun, who was in charge of tracking them, didn't expect that they had hidden Reno right under his nose.
After dragging her brother out of the well with some effort, Rena decided to carry him on her back. Reno was as tall as she was, so his feet were dragging on the ground.
"Lin Sanjiu!"
Rena was afraid that if she called out loudly, she would attract the enemy who was hiding somewhere. Rena could only carry her brother and walk around the ruins while calling her name softly. "Are you still alive? Answer me —"
The teenage girl felt that her soft voice traveled very far in the silent night sky. She was a little frightened and stopped. After a short pause, she called out again, "Lin Sanjiu —"
A concrete slab suddenly moved as if it was responding to her call. Rena was shocked and quickly stopped calling.
"Is that you?" She took two steps forward cautiously.
"So, so that thing is Lin Sanjiu!" A sharp and hoarse scream pierced through the air. The cement slab was flipped open, and Derik's short figure crawled out. He seemed to be in a frenzy as he shouted, "M-Puppeteer's reward … I … I'm here!"
The dim sunlight shone on Derik's body. Rena couldn't help crying out in surprise.
She couldn't tell that he was a human anymore. Derik didn't have a "front" or a "back" as if he had been ground by a huge millstone. His entire body was a bloody cylinder. His facial features, skin and other physical features were all gone. It was strange that he could still speak.
Just when Derik was about to rush to Rena's side as if he had lost his mind, another loud noise came from the ruins behind him. Another black figure that wasn't much bigger than Derik pounced out. With one leap, Derik fell to the ground, choking on a mouthful of blood.
When the black figure stopped, Lin Sanjiu could see half a skull. It was a pale and transparent skull.
"Great, you're still alive!" She wanted to hug Lin Sanjiu. However, when she swung her arm, her arm passed through the skeleton. She was stunned. "What?" Lin Sanjiu asked.
"I'm fine. I just need to rest for a few days," the skull wrote.
At that moment, Lin Sanjiu felt physically and mentally exhausted. She just wanted to close her eyes and ignore everything.
When she pounced on Derik, if she had a real body, she would have fainted from the convulsions. The pain released by the [Humanoid Bane] was like an endless black hole. It was a torture that was far beyond anyone's imagination. It was enough to make people think of suicide as a wonderful release.
However, Lin Sanjiu's higher consciousness did not have the ability to "faint" to protect herself.
Even though Lin Sanjiu could attack because of the [Humanoid Bane], it also meant that she had to bear the pain of millions of years of human history by herself with a clear mind.
After wrapping around the human face, it didn't take long to grind it down. However, those 4.7 seconds were the longest, darkest and scariest 4.7 seconds of Lin Sanjiu's life.
"Alright, alright. Can you still walk?" Rena wiped her tears, "Let's find a place to rest …"
Even though she didn't know what higher consciousness was, she knew that Lin Sanjiu wasn't in a good condition. Ever since Rena was a brain, she had never looked so pale and feeble. She looked like a wisp of smoke that could be blown away by the wind at any time.
As Mrs. Manas had used up too much of her higher consciousness, she had already become a part of her attacking higher consciousness and disappeared. "After resting for a few days, she might come out again when her higher consciousness recovers," Lin Sanjiu thought weakly. She slowly landed on Rena's shoulder and felt that she had used up all her energy.
"Should we go back to the streetcar?" Rena asked softly. Ever since they arrived at Kisaragi Station, the streetcar was the safest place for them. At that moment, Rena couldn't help but think of the streetcar. "We can't stay here for long. Zhu Mingchun should still be nearby …"
