"Now, I can't leave even if I want to."
Not to mention that Puppeteer still had a death grip on her collar, even if he released his grip, Lin Sanjiu knew that she wouldn't be able to escape from him.
Not far away, in the sticky green swamp, there was a creature — let's call it a creature for now. It was slowly moving towards the two of them. Regardless of what it was, it didn't seem to be in a hurry. Lin Sanjiu heard its gloomy, slippery voice, "You are so unlucky … I was trying to solve this problem without taking off my coat …"
"What the hell is this thing?"
In her panic, Lin Sanjiu couldn't help shouting at Puppeteer. Puppeteer's face was gloomy, and his eyes were fixed on "Santa Claus" as if he was facing a formidable enemy. He seemed even more nervous than before. Without sparing Lin Sanjiu a glance, Puppeteer snorted and leaped away from her.
Even though he did not say a word, it was clear that he wanted to use Lin Sanjiu to test the waters. Puppeteer had no intention of hiding anything. He even raised his chin at Lin Sanjiu, gesturing for her to go up to him.
Lin Sanjiu snorted inwardly. She was ready to fight at any moment.
The creature walked at a leisurely pace, as if it didn't care about her at all. However, there was something deep in Lin Sanjiu's heart that warned her not to run away. It was as if she was trapped by some kind of force field. With every step that the creature took, Lin Sanjiu could feel an invisible pressure on her shoulders.
"What the hell is this?"
Lin Sanjiu was afraid that she would have to be a very imaginative person to see a vague humanoid shape on "Santa Claus". It was probably its chest, which was twisted outwards. Four limbs hung on both sides of its slender and long body like a spider. Lin Sanjiu couldn't see its forelimbs and hind limbs at all. Even if a dead person were to be dismembered and pieced together, they probably wouldn't be able to join them together.
There was an oddly small object protruding from the front of its body. It looked like a small football. It had been cut in the middle and then dried, leaving behind a jagged crack. It took Lin Sanjiu quite some time before she could confirm that the voice was coming from there.
And what made people's scalps tingle the most was that the creature's body was covered in layers and layers of dense lumps — the first layer was dry. The first layer had dried up, and the second layer had grown a new layer of pustules. When the creature moved, the thick layers of pustules seemed to have a life of their own. As it moved forward, a long, deep black hole appeared. When it opened and closed, it looked like there were countless huge, pitch-black eye holes. They flickered in and out of existence from the inhuman thing, and every single one of them seemed to have landed on Lin Sanjiu.
"Who would have thought," Puppeteer, who was standing not far from her, suddenly sneered. "The famous Santa Claus in the Twelve Worlds Centrum is actually a duoluozhong."
Before Lin Sanjiu could think further, a sound that sounded like a breath came from the deep, irregular crack. "Santa Claus" let out a short laugh.
Before Lin Sanjiu could delve deeper into the matter, a sound that sounded like a breath came from the deep, irregular crack. "Santa Claus" seemed to have let out a short laugh. Coincidentally, she stepped into the darkness between two street lamps. Lin Sanjiu's heart skipped a beat. At the same time, she spread her skeletal wings and leaped into the air.
Hovering in mid-air, Lin Sanjiu lowered her head and looked down. The ground where she had just landed was now covered with dense pustules.
The "fresh" pustules popped up from the ground one after another. Black and red liquid flowed under their translucent surface. From afar, it looked like a disgusting volcanic magma.
The "pustules" on the ground spread rapidly. In the blink of an eye, the entire Pumpkin Route was covered with pustules of various sizes. The ground was littered with translucent lumps of various sizes. The place where Puppeteer was standing was not spared either. However, before Lin Sanjiu could see where Puppeteer was going, she was already falling due to the gravitational pull.
"Quick! Grab the lamp post! "
When Mrs. Manas let out a scream, Lin Sanjiu stretched her hand out toward one of the lampposts. However, even the nearest lamppost was too far away from her. Her fingertips brushed past the surface of the lamppost, leaving a few white scratches on it. Her body continued to fall uncontrollably, and it looked like she was about to fall into a pool of pus on the ground.
In the next second, [Tornado Whip] appeared out of nowhere. She conjured a hurricane from her hand and struck the ground. Taking advantage of the counterforce, Lin Sanjiu leaped into the air and hugged the pole of the street lamp tightly. Just as her toes were about to touch the ground, she stopped her body from sliding downwards.
The duoluozhong, who looked like Santa Claus, seemed to be enjoying this scene very much. Its body was trembling with pleasure.
"In order to hide my identity, I have no choice but to wear the [Christmas Costume]. It has been a long time since I dared to use this trick …" As it spoke, the black holes on its body opened and closed. Occasionally, they would reveal the layers of pustules in the depths of the black holes. "It has been a long time since I saw you humans like this!"
Lin Sanjiu looked up and saw that Puppeteer had climbed to the top of the lamp post. He was squatting on a pumpkin shell. Separated by the road, he looked as thin as a paper doll. It was as if he weighed nothing. The pumpkin didn't even sway.
Lin Sanjiu, on the other hand, couldn't do so.
After suffering from the two gigantic wings on her back, she had to use all her strength to hold onto the smooth lamp post, let alone move even a centimeter higher.
"What the hell are all these things …" Lin Sanjiu panted as she dug her nails deep into the lamp post. As she did not dare to let her wings face downwards, she spread them out in a straight line. At this moment, she more or less maintained some balance. As the lamppost was too thin, she did not dare to use her wings to stabilize her body. She was afraid that she would accidentally cut it off.
As if he had heard her muttering, Puppeteer, who was on the opposite side of Pumpkin Route, suddenly let out a cry of surprise. He turned his head and looked at the shop that she had destroyed.
Following his gaze, Lin Sanjiu also looked over with some difficulty.
On top of the pile of broken bamboo and bricks, a few bricks and tiles were pushed up by something. The moment they touched the "pustules" on the ground, a pungent white smoke rose from them. A black figure wriggled and struggled to get up from the pile of debris. Step by step, he walked toward the light from the jack-o '-lantern.
Lin Sanjiu gasped. Lin Sanjiu suddenly realized that this was the male posthuman who had summoned Santa Claus.
Of course, from his appearance, it was almost impossible to tell that he was the same person.
With every step he took, the pustules on the ground seemed to have a life of their own. They quickly moved toward his feet and climbed up his calves and thighs. In the span of a few breaths, they had covered his entire body. The man, whose body was covered with pustules of various sizes, seemed to have lost control of his body. His uneven neck became more and more crooked and elongated. Finally, with a crack, his head, which was covered with pustules, hung down to his ribs. The dark-red liquid in the pustules seemed to have seeped into his body through his pores. Soon, new red pustules emerged from his thick, black hair.
"Come on, come on. As long as you listen to me, you can evolve to my level." "Santa Claus" used the same sweet voice to call out to him, "... Attack this woman!"
Before he could finish his sentence, Puppeteer leaped into the air. Lin Sanjiu couldn't see what kind of attack he had used on Santa Claus because the man who had just turned into a duoluozhong had already pounced on her with a speed that didn't match his appearance. Lin Sanjiu couldn't see what kind of attack he had used on Santa Claus because the duoluozhong that had just turned into a duoluozhong pounced on her with a speed that didn't match his appearance.
Lin Sanjiu was trapped on the pillar. She couldn't move up or down. For a moment, her heart almost leaped out of her throat.
These pustules looked like they would seep into a person's body through their skin and turn them into a duoluozhong. Lin Sanjiu quickly covered her body with her [Defense Forcefield]. She swung her skeletal wings forward. Her muscles were already trembling due to her nervousness.
However, contrary to her expectations, this attack was so easily successful.
The man, who was covered with pustules and looked less and less human, was sliced in half by her skeletal wings like tofu. From the inside of the broken body, countless blood-red pustules poured out like a torrent.
Before the nearest pustule touched Lin Sanjiu's skin, her body flew backward. At that critical moment, she suddenly remembered that she still had the [Female Slave Bondage Rope] with her. With a wave of her hand, she threw the rope and hung it on the top of the pumpkin lamppost behind her. She pulled herself out of the pumpkin lantern. She did this in less than two seconds. The moment her body was in the air, the pustules immediately flooded the spot where she was standing.
In the blink of an eye, a plume of white smoke rose from the lantern. It swayed a few times as if it was unwilling to give up. Finally, it crashed into the ground. The pumpkin lantern was smashed into a few pieces, and its light was extinguished. Lin Sanjiu could only see darkness ahead of her.
Just as Lin Sanjiu was gripping the rope tightly and swinging her body in the air, Puppeteer leaped into the air and landed on the jack-o '-lantern. Under the dim sky, Puppeteer still looked a little ragged. There were a few deep gashes on his body, but the good news was that there were no pustules growing out of his wounds.
"Hey, Lin Sanjiu," he suddenly shouted, startling her. "Come here!"
"Go over?"
Lin Sanjiu tried her best to maintain her balance while keeping her guard up against the man who was staggering toward her. At the same time, she looked at the distance between her and Puppeteer with a look of disbelief.
The pumpkin path, which usually took only a few steps to cross, now looked like a natural moat. Not to mention, the duoluozhong disguised as Santa Claus was standing in the middle of the road. The pustules on its body were opening and closing as if it was waiting for its prey.
"Are you crazy? Or do you think I'm crazy? "Lin Sanjiu shouted. Then, she climbed up the rope with difficulty." I'm not going! “
Even though she could not see anything clearly, she could feel Puppeteer's rage burning in her heart.
"… Come here when I tell you to!" His soft and feminine voice was filled with violence. "Can't you see? These blood pustules are very difficult to deal with. No matter what you do, you can't touch them! If you use a long-range airflow attack and they explode, it will be even more troublesome! "
"Well, that's true."
"Then, what do you want me to do?" Lin Sanjiu asked as she climbed up a jack-o '-lantern. However, she was so heavy that she crushed half of the pumpkin when she stepped on it.
"You —" Before Puppeteer could finish his sentence, the duoluozhong's body swayed and disappeared. Just when Lin Sanjiu thought that the duoluozhong was coming for her, Puppeteer also disappeared in a flash. When he reappeared, he was already two pillars away from her. Half of his face was so gloomy that it looked like it was going to squeeze water out of his mouth. "Bullsh * t! If you don't come over, how am I going to subdue it with my stuff?!"
The duoluozhong chuckled when it heard Lin Sanjiu's words. Its tiny "head" had already slid down to its chest. Countless pustules were poking out from its body. Apparently, it was ready for a surprise attack.
If it weren't for Puppeteer's injuries, Lin Sanjiu would have thought that it was a trap set up by the two of them.
However, to her surprise, she actually did as Puppeteer said. With the help of her [Tornado Whip], she pushed off the lamppost and leaped toward the lamppost where Puppeteer was standing. Almost at the same time, pustules exploded in the air like a volcanic eruption, and Lin Sanjiu pounced toward the lamppost where Puppeteer was standing. A second before Lin Sanjiu was about to lick her, a large bag of bright orange sand fell from the sky. The black and red liquid was pushed back by the sand. Even though the liquid was still burning, Lin Sanjiu managed to get through the air safely. She hugged the lamppost under Puppeteer's feet with both of her hands.
She had used up all her [Cat Litter].
Puppeteer lowered his eyes and shot her a glance. Half of his face seemed to be saying, "Why would I cooperate with you?". In the next second, four to five shadows flew into Lin Sanjiu's arms. (To be continued.)
