Lin Sanjiu was not in the mood to figure out why Hegel, who had disappeared a long time ago, would suddenly enter the Data Stream Library.
It was so bright that they couldn't even open their eyes. From afar, the thin rays of light were as wide as a tunnel. Lin Sanjiu didn't even need to open her eyes to know that the light had enveloped all three of them in it.
Her heart sank, and she felt as if she had been submerged in a pool of ice water. She waved her hand subconsciously, and the transparent wall around her disappeared. Instead of feeling relieved, she felt as if her heart was in her throat. "What's wrong with Puppeteer?"
"Don't panic," Mrs. Manas called out in her mind. "So far, this white strand of light has not affected you. Try to see if you can get out of here!"
'Not affected? '
Lin Sanjiu suppressed her doubts. She squinted her eyes and turned around in the blinding light. Then, she found a random direction and dashed out. To her surprise, the light did not seem to trap her. She leaped into the deep blue space without any problems. She was startled and blinked hard in the suddenly dimmed light.
The white strand of light in the distance was still floating in space like a thick spider web. Only the huge strand of light behind Lin Sanjiu stretched into the void beside her, illuminating her surroundings.
Other than the extra strand of light, nothing had changed. 'Haven't the Veda noticed? '
Lin Sanjiu looked up and saw the highest god swinging his arms to steady himself in the air. It seemed that he did not expect to be knocked out by someone. He stared blankly at Hegel for a moment. At that moment, a black figure shot out from the white light behind Puppeteer like an arrow and pounced toward the highest god.
This time, the reaction of the highest god was a step too slow. It was already too late for him to twist his body to evade Puppeteer's attack. Just as Puppeteer's hand was about to land on his back, the skin on his back quivered and bulged. Then, like another hand, the skin on his back swelled up.
Just when Puppeteer was taken aback by the sudden attack, the highest god seized this precious opportunity to leap into the air. As he rose into the air, another humanoid figure appeared at the spot where he had been standing a moment ago.
In the next second, the flesh-colored humanoid split into a few pieces as if it was cut by a steel wire. Its limbs and head floated away and gradually disappeared. It was only then that Lin Sanjiu realized that it was a crudely made rubber dummy. The highest god was completely naked. Logically speaking, there should be no place for him to store his belongings. He had no idea where this scapegoat came from. Could it be a script?
"You're half a second late." The highest god lowered his head and smiled at Puppeteer. "Why did you take it out on my doll?"
They did not know whether the Veda had discovered their presence or not, and they did not have much time left.
Seizing the opportunity when Puppeteer distracted his attention, Lin Sanjiu quietly flew up and retreated to the side. After giving it some thought, she summoned her [Unfinished Painting]. As soon as the artist with the bucket of paint appeared, Lin Sanjiu stood in front of the artist to block the highest god's view.
However, [No Coincidence, No Story] did not always bring its owner good luck. Just as the artist was done laying the canvas, before he could start his painting, a tiny, barely discernible silhouette lunged at him from the side. Lin Sanjiu's eyes flickered. Before the silhouette could touch the artist, Lin Sanjiu quickly slapped the artist's back. The silhouette instantly flew through the air and landed in the vast blue ocean beneath her feet.
Lin Sanjiu was a little stunned when she saw the card in her hand.
"What are you doing?" she asked angrily.
The person who attacked her was not the highest god. Hegel was hovering in the void not far away from her. His eyes were fixed on Lin Sanjiu. Without turning his head, he shouted, "Highest god! I'm from the Olympics! You know me, right? "
"Hmm, I do remember you."
The highest god scratched his short, golden brown hair and flashed a smile at Puppeteer. "What are you doing?" he asked as if he was just having a casual chat with Hegel.
"I've been to the Olympics twice! I've killed so many people that I can't even count, "Hegel's face was flushed. As he shouted, a shadow gradually formed in his hand. "However, I've failed to win the chance to meet you. No matter how hard I tried, I failed at the last step."
"So what?"
In the span of a few words, Puppeteer and the highest god had clashed several times. Just as Puppeteer said, Puppeteer had a lot of ways to attack. However, if his opponent could see him clearly before he attacked, none of his attacks would work.
"I didn't expect that the third time would be like this. I saw from afar that all of you had disappeared after you entered a place, so I followed you. I didn't expect that I would meet the highest god before I could even complete the competition. " Hegel gulped. "I heard that the final winner can fulfill a wish. Is that true?" Before the highest god could answer, Hegel asked, "Do I still have the chance?"
"Of course it's true!"
The highest god's eyes lit up. His dimples deepened. "I love fulfilling people's wishes."
"Are you crazy?" Lin Sanjiu yelled at Hegel. "Do you know where we are?"
"I don't care where we are!" The bald man suddenly raised his straw-like eyebrows and shouted, "As long as you can send me to the place I want to go, even if I have to go to hell, I will go back!"
"I like people like you who are full of fighting spirit," the highest god said as he raised his hand. Instantly, a dozen or so rubber men appeared out of thin air. Under Puppeteer's gaze, they began to swell, turn green, and eventually, they disappeared. "You're really a pleasant surprise for me … You've given me another idea. Come here. "
Hegel was stunned. Just when he hesitated, Lin Sanjiu quickly said, "Don't go over there. That guy isn't normal. "
"Of course I know he isn't normal." Lin Sanjiu's words seemed to make Hegel more determined. While keeping his guard up against Lin Sanjiu, he retreated toward the highest god. "The person I want to meet is an abnormal person."
"What a sensible child." The highest god laughed. Suddenly, he leaped into the air and pulled the bald man to his side. Just when Hegel screamed and Lin Sanjiu thought the bald man was going to die, the highest god pushed him away from Hegel's back and pushed him further away from Lin Sanjiu.
"Do you understand?" the naked man asked with a grin.
Hegel panted and nodded with a pale face. It was obvious that he was shocked.
"Now, you can tell me what your wish is," the highest god said.
Lin Sanjiu couldn't help exchanging glances with Puppeteer. However, it was obvious that neither of them heard what the highest god said. Before she could turn her eyes away, she saw a silver shadow pouncing at her from the corner of her eyes. She hurriedly dove down, and the silver shadow brushed past her forehead with a swoosh.
It was a scalpel.
"I've been thinking about it for a long time. If a new world is formed every day, there must be a planet that will only become doomsday after a long time, right? "
Along with Hegel's voice, more scalpels rained down on Lin Sanjiu. The shadows in his hands kept materializing and taking shape. As he walked toward her, he also threw scalpels at her. If these were the effects of her ability, Lin Sanjiu wouldn't be able to divide her Higher Consciousness into so many parts and store them into the card one by one. If they were real objects, it would be even more difficult for her. She couldn't possibly touch the scalpels with the risk of cutting her fingers.
"I'm 37 years old this year. Even if posthumans have a longer lifespan, I can't live past 200 years old."
The only option left for her was to run away.
Lin Sanjiu looked around and dashed toward the huge, snow-white light thread. Hegel and the scalpels were slowed down. Lin Sanjiu darted left and right and finally reached the light thread. As soon as she got close to the light thread, the scalpels that rained down on Hegel became much thinner. The white light was too blinding, and Hegel couldn't keep his eyes on Lin Sanjiu anymore.
He covered his eyes with one hand and put away the scalpels. Then, he shouted, "My wish is simple. I want you to send me to a world that will only be doomsday 200 years later. Of course, I want to keep my Evolved Ability … With my Evolved Ability and Items, I can deal with all the minor issues like money and status."
To a normal person, the rain of scalpels might be scary. However, to a posthuman, even if his body was covered in zebra stripes, it wouldn't be life-threatening … Just as Lin Sanjiu was thinking about this with a frown, she heard a voice from the light thread behind her, "Who's outside?"
"Soulsqn?" Lin Sanjiu was stunned. "It's me. Come out now!"
"I … I can't see," Soulsqn sounded a little timid. "This light is a little too strong for us Souls …"
[You really can't do anything right.]
"Just find a direction and walk forward!" Lin Sanjiu didn't reach out to pull Soulsqn. "Hurry up. I need you."
She was right. Even if she didn't turn her head, she could feel Hegel rushing toward her from behind. Lin Sanjiu turned, called out, and raised her gun in one fluid motion. She aimed the [Tranquilizer Gun for Pawns] at Hegel and fired a few shots of anesthetic.
For a person who had hunted down countless consular officers, she easily dodged the few shots of anesthetic. Once she got closer, she didn't have to aim anymore. Hegel raised his hand and immediately poured out dozens of silver scalpels at her.
"Touch her!" Hegel seemed to have pinned all his hopes on the rain of scalpels. He roared and charged at Lin Sanjiu together with the scalpels.
"If that's the case, I can't let them touch me."
The thought flashed across Lin Sanjiu's mind, but it was too late to avoid the attack. With no other choice, she twisted her body and dove into the silver light thread. The rain of scalpels brushed past her back, bringing with it an inexplicable chill.
The moment her vision turned white, she heard the highest god laugh from afar.
