The ground beneath Lin Sanjiu's feet trembled slightly. The sea of duoluozhongs followed closely behind her. Every step they took was like a stomp on her heart, causing her internal organs to plummet.
"They're catching up. Hurry up! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Lin Sanjiu did not make a sound.
She felt as if her internal organs were being squeezed tightly by a giant hand. No matter how hard she tried to breathe, all she could inhale was dirt. However, that was not the worst part. Most of the duoluozhong behind her possessed the ability to evolve.
Just as the duoluozhong landed on the ground and returned to its original form, Lin Sanjiu was hit by one of the duoluozhong. Her legs gave way and she almost rolled into the wave of duoluozhong. Fortunately, Mrs. Manas reacted quickly and activated her [Higher Consciousness Defense]. She endured a few attacks and finally found an opportunity to escape. She struggled and dashed out.
The [Barrier of Higher Consciousness] was activated, and it kept flickering on her back. Every flicker represented an attack. Lin Sanjiu barely managed to block the attacks with her [Pygmalion Choker]. However, after five minutes, the only thing she could do was run.
The grand prize held the [Notebook] card in one hand and grabbed Lin Sanjiu's black singlet with the other. He yelled into her ear, "Sis! The card shows that the notebook is getting thicker! "
Every time she recorded an Evolved Ability, the notebook would add a new page. If it wasn't for the fact that it had been converted into a card, Ji Shanqing might not even be able to hold it with both hands. This thought flashed across Lin Sanjiu's mind. Biting her lip, she increased her speed again.
The next second, she slammed on the brakes. Just as she was about to fall to the ground, she forcefully stopped her momentum. The huge fleshy finger, which seemed to be able to split the sky and the earth, pressed on the air. As if seeing that she was no longer running forward, it slowly retracted into the white fog.
"What the f * ck," Lin Sanjiu cursed before she turned around and dashed away as the teacher screeched at her. The moment her feet left the ground, the ground caved in and formed a deep, dark shaft.
"Think of something!" Finally, she managed to squeeze out a sentence from her burning lungs, "... That finger has already stopped us twice!"
"Yes, yes," the grand prize panicked like a cat on a fire. He twisted his body and looked around, "It seems that the finger doesn't want to kill us. Instead, it wants us to fall into the hands of the duoluozhong … I don't get it. We're all going to die, so what's the difference — Ah!"
As Lin Sanjiu braked abruptly, the grand prize was almost thrown off. He hugged Lin Sanjiu's neck tightly, "What's wrong?"
"Someone's here!" Lin Sanjiu growled, "Let go of my throat!"
The grand prize quickly let go of Lin Sanjiu's neck. He looked around, and his eyes lit up. It was a posthuman with a red patch on his forehead. It seemed that he had just been teleported here. He was thrown about a dozen steps away from them. That person rolled around unconsciously for a few times before he moved and slowly opened his eyes.
"Don't remind him —" Before the grand prize could finish his words, Lin Sanjiu shouted at that person, "Run! Duoluozhong! "
Just when Ji Shanqing was remorseful, Lin Sanjiu had already run away. Both of them couldn't help turning their heads to look at her.
The duoluozhong that were charging toward them swallowed the person on the ground like a tsunami and continued to charge toward Lin Sanjiu. Both of them cursed at the same time. Lin Sanjiu didn't dare to waste any more time. She turned around and ran.
"We have lost a few duoluozhong," Mrs. Manas suddenly shouted, "But you don't have much Higher Consciousness left. Think of something!"
Perhaps the posthuman had attracted some of their attention, Lin Sanjiu thought. She immediately shouted at her grand prize, who was on her shoulder, "Think of something!"
"But the giant won't let us go out, and we don't have any more Special Items that we can use —" Ji Shanqing's face was covered in sweat. He was clearly panicking, but he couldn't think of anything to do at the moment. He looked up and shouted, "Quick, turn around! That man is in front of us!"
Lin Sanjiu's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately stopped. She swung her [Tornado Whip] and swept away a few duoluozhongs that were close to her. Then, she sprinted in another direction. From afar, she saw a deep ravine that reached her waist.
Even with Lin Sanjiu's height, it was impossible for her to jump over the ravine. She pressed her grand prize down with one hand, and as a blade of light whizzed toward her from behind, she crouched down and rolled into the ravine.
Just as Lin Sanjiu stood up, her calf sank into a pool of flesh and blood. The stench made her stomach churn, and she held her breath.
The first posthuman seemed to have been pressed down from the top of his skull. His skull was crushed, and his spine was crushed into his internal organs like a french fry. Finally, he exploded into a puddle of flesh and blood. With a swipe of her finger, the large piece of flesh and bone that was supposed to be a human broke into many lumps and stuck to the wall of the ravine.
Lin Sanjiu didn't dare to look at it any longer. Just when she was about to leap out of the ravine, her grand prize suddenly shouted, "Wait!"
"What's wrong?" The moment she opened her mouth, she could feel the thick stench of blood rushing into her throat. She even felt like retching.
"That! That!" the grand prize was so agitated that he couldn't even form a sentence. He kicked his legs anxiously, "Sis, look at that!"
Lin Sanjiu suppressed her discomfort and looked in the direction of his finger.
There was a puddle of flesh and blood not far from her feet. She couldn't tell what it was originally. There was a yellowish horn poking out of the puddle of flesh and blood. Somehow, it wasn't tainted by the black blood. If it wasn't for her grand prize, she wouldn't have noticed it at all.
"That guy's Special Item," Ji Shanqing's voice was hoarse, "Take it. You might stand a chance if you take it!"
"Mrs. Manas, hold on!"
Lin Sanjiu yelled in her mind. She didn't care about anything else. She rushed forward and scooped the puddle of blood and mud into her arms. At the same time, the [Defense Forcefield] on her back glowed brightly. Countless duoluozhongs had jumped into the trench.
"Alright, run!" Ji Shanqing kept looking back. His face was as white as a sheet.
By then, Lin Sanjiu's arms were empty. Half of her body was soaked in mucus and blood. There was even a piece of human skin stuck to her pants. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get it off. However, when she leaped out of the ravine, she heaved a sigh of relief.
There was a card in her hand. It was the [Dismembered Corpse Wrapped with Special Item [Elementary Ambient Color]].
The "God" in the sky couldn't damage this Special Item!
As soon as she got the card, Lin Sanjiu lashed her whip behind her again. This time, she used all her strength. A tornado that seemed to be able to devour everything whipped up a cloud of yellow sand. The sandstorm quickly covered everything. For a moment, Lin Sanjiu and Ji Shanqing could only see sand and pebbles. She couldn't even see the white fog anymore.
When the tornado finally dissipated, Lin Sanjiu and Ji Shanqing were nowhere to be seen.
Thousands of green-skinned, hairless people slowed down their steps and swayed under the white fog. While searching, they turned their heads around and around their necks, as if they had no cervical vertebrae at all.
"Ahhh!"
Suddenly, a thunderous voice boomed in the air, shaking the ground. The thick white fog seemed to be stirred up by the voice. Lin Sanjiu and Ji Shanqing, who were both wearing the [Elementary Ambient Color] and lying on the ground, suddenly felt a buzzing in their heads. Their hearts were in their throats, and their heads were buzzing.
The previous posthuman was crushed to death by the gigantic finger when he straightened his back and revealed his human form. In other words, as long as they didn't move, the gigantic finger wouldn't be able to find them.
The rumbling of the human voices seemed to prove their speculation.
"Ahhh! Ahhh! " The voice rolled across the clouds. At first, it wasn't even written. It was full of unrelenting anger, like a child throwing a tantrum because he didn't get his toy. "Yes, yes, yes! Where is he? "
With a plop, thousands of green duoluozhongs fell to the ground. Their legs were crouched like frogs, but their torsos were straight out and close to the ground, as if in some ritual of worship.
"They must have fallen into the hands of the devil." A faint voice begged the heavens from afar, "… My True God, I only hope that the other two lost lambs we found can appease your anger … Your supreme light will illuminate the evil in the world and save every lamb."
Lin Sanjiu pressed the grand prize under her arm. Even though both of them were confused, they did not dare to move.
Fortunately, as long as they did not move, the "True God" would not be able to find them. However, even if the "True God" did not speak again, they did not dare to take the risk. They buried their heads in the sand and listened to the rustling of the footsteps and the whispering of the duoluozhongs. Gradually, the duoluozhongs receded into the distance like a receding tide.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, the tremors from the ground stopped, and the air gradually calmed down. It was as if the ground had stopped moving. The group of duoluozhongs and their "True God" did not move for a long time. It seemed that they had gone far away.
Lin Sanjiu waited cautiously for a while.
After a few minutes of silence, when she finally believed that she was safe, she moved her face bit by bit. She squinted her eyes and looked at everything around her through the gap.
The thick white fog in the sky split the world into two. Dust and rocks rolled across the yellow ground as the wind blew. Everything seemed to have returned to normal.
Even so, Lin Sanjiu didn't dare to straighten her body. She was afraid that if she stood up, she would suffer the same fate as the posthuman. The sky was shrouded by the white fog, and no one knew if the eyeball was waiting for them to appear above the fog.
"Crawl backward," Lin Sanjiu mouthed the words more than ten times before the grand prize finally realized what was going on. They had come from the other directions, and the only direction they had not passed was the direction behind them.
She had to lie flat on the ground and make sure that Ji Shanqing would not slip out of her arms. She also had to slowly crawl backward. Even for a posthuman, it was an uncomfortable position to crawl backward with only her knees and elbows. After crawling for half an hour, Lin Sanjiu finally stopped to catch her breath.
"After crawling for such a long time, maybe we can stand up?"
Lin Sanjiu thought for a while, but for some reason, whenever she thought of the word "stand up", the image of that bloody finger swiping across the ground automatically appeared in her mind. Lin Sanjiu shuddered and decided to retreat for another kilometer or so to observe the situation.
His knees, which were covered by his combat pants, did not hurt too much, but his elbows, which were exposed to the sand, had already been scratched by countless shallow bloody cuts. Enduring the pain, Lin Sanjiu pulled her right elbow backward once more. At the same time, she stretched her left leg backward. It was the same action she had repeated countless times.
However, she suddenly missed her footing, and her body slid downwards. As Ji Shanqing cried out in alarm, Lin Sanjiu's vision suddenly turned upside down. Her heart almost leaped out of her chest. She clenched her fists and dug them into the sandy ground, leaving a long trail on the ground. She struggled to hold on to the edge of the sand and finally managed to stop herself from sliding downwards.
The ground had broken off into a cliff. The grand prize was holding onto one of her legs as he swayed in the air. When he looked down, his lips turned pale.
"What the hell is going on?" Lin Sanjiu panted as she lowered her eyes.
In her eyes, the [Elementary Ambient Color] that had slid off her body fluttered down and disappeared into the ravine at the bottom of the cliff. When she looked down from midair, it looked like someone had dug out a huge bowl on the ground. It was as big as half a city. When she took a closer look, she saw that the inside of the "huge bowl" was filled with circular tunnels.
Every round path was dotted with small holes, and through these holes, countless living people, with normal faces and slow movements, were bustling about, going in and out.
From the sky, it looked like a huge ant nest that had been opened.
