117: Life hangs on a thread! Assassination in the street!
Lin Ye gasped, sucking in a sharp breath of cold air.
“Damn it!”
“I almost got taken out in one go!”
“This is reality…”
“New account~”
“Seriously, don’t mess around!”
Lin Ye was startled, breaking out in a cold sweat, and turned to glare at Bai Shuya.
“If I had been a second slower just now, you would’ve been dead. A hundred healing staves wouldn't have helped.”
“If I had been even a little weaker just now, I would’ve died too. Ten thousand healing staves wouldn't have brought me back to life!”
“Next time you…”
Bai Shuya’s face had turned pale with fright.
“I…I really didn’t do it on purpose. Who would’ve thought…”
Mid-sentence,
tears streamed uncontrollably from the corners of Bai Shuya’s eyes. She rushed a few steps to Lin Ye’s front, instinctively wanting to wipe away the burning flames on his body.
“Are you…are you hurting? Are you okay?”
“Slap!”
Lin Ye grabbed her hand, sternly saying,
“What, do you want to get burned yourself?”
Bai Shuya’s expression dimmed. Her usually radiant eyes now gradually faded, and she only murmured, “It’s good that you’re okay, it’s good that you’re okay…Next time, I won’t mess with you again, really…Wuwuwu~ Can you please not get into trouble? I really…Wuwuwu~!!!”
It was as if Bai Shuya hadn’t cried in many years. The dam had burst, and tears surged like a flood. Ignoring the scorching heat, she wanted to embrace Lin Ye.
But she couldn’t.
That fire could truly take her life!
The two remained in a stalemate until the scorching flames receded.
Only then did Lin Ye let her approach.
“You…you scoundrel!”
The very next second, Bai Shuya began to scold him, “It already exploded just now, didn’t you know to run? Why did you bother with me? I’m so stupid, wouldn’t it have been better to just let me die? But you mustn’t die. If you die, what about Yan Yan? And…hmph! What about your Queen in the game?”
Even at a time like this,
you’re still so articulate.
Lin Ye was truly impressed.
“You’re really something else.”
“Seriously.”
“So many people wanted to kill me in the game, but they couldn’t even touch a corner of my clothes.”
“But as soon as I came out, you almost got first blood on me.”
“Pfft~”
Bai Shuya suddenly burst into laughter through her tears, “That’s you killing yourself. At most, I was just an accomplice. Otherwise, with your SSS-rank talent, who could…”
As she spoke,
Bai Shuya noticed the charred marks on Lin Ye’s body. They simply wiped away with a brush.
Following that,
beneath was his incredibly smooth, even faintly glowing skin.
“Wow…”
Bai Shuya touched it twice and instantly became fond of it.
The texture of Lin Ye’s current skin was as flawless as the jade in her hand, yet their textures were completely different. It wasn’t cool, but scorching hot.
“What are you doing?”
Lin Ye saw that she was already starting to enjoy herself and suddenly felt that he had been a bit too soft-hearted earlier.
“Don’t take advantage and not know when to stop. You should reflect properly first. I’ll consider how to punish you later!”
“Huh?”
Bai Shuya paused slightly, stunned in place.
Lin Ye went to the bathroom to take a shower.
It was only when he faced the mirror that he realized.
With the SSS talent, the growth and changes in his physical attributes were too obvious.
Not only his skin, muscles, and bones, but even his height seemed to have increased slightly.
He never paid attention in the game.
But in reality, this difference was truly enormous.
Pushing the door open, he came out.
He saw Bai Shuya sitting there, looking pitiful and fragile, like a pear blossom after a storm, which had a different kind of charm.
Lin Ye walked forward and reached out to lift her chin.
Bai Shuya obediently tilted her head back, her beautiful eyes regaining their usual brilliance, now darting around.
It seemed that
she really wanted to take advantage of this situation.
“Hmph?”
Lin Ye thought to himself, if he didn’t teach her a harsh lesson this time, she probably wouldn’t change her bad habits in the future.
“Do you know you were wrong?”
“Mmm~”
“Then have you thought about what punishment you want to accept?”
“I…I don’t know,” Bai Shuya said distractedly, clearly engrossed in something. “Whatever you say, anything is fine…”
“From now on, be good. Whatever I tell you to do, you do it, understand?”
“Mm-hmm, okay~”
“Call me Master!”
“Master~” As soon as Bai Shuya finished speaking, her pupils suddenly widened, and she looked up at him in disbelief, glaring.
A wicked smile appeared at the corner of Lin Ye’s mouth.
“Open your mouth!”
“I…Mm?!” Bai Shuya had just opened her mouth to say one word when she was cut off. She rolled her eyes and glared fiercely at Lin Ye.
“Still not convinced?”
Lin Ye used to be somewhat gentle with women.
But today, he had to teach her a lesson, so he naturally had no qualms about punishing her.
Moreover,
today he truly didn’t need to worry.
Because after the account was created, Lin Ye could already see health bars in his eyes.
With health bars,
then he wouldn’t die.
Because it could be controlled.
Furthermore,
he now had the Natural Staff, this legendary weapon, which was currently in her hands.
Just now,
Bai Shuya should have just come to return something.
Lin Ye paused slightly and smiled, “Don’t you know how to use healing spells?”
Bai Shuya finally reacted and hurriedly cast a Natural Growth on herself, and her health bar quickly recovered.
However,
her eyes became even more despairing, and she glared at Lin Ye even more fiercely.
“Hahahahaha~”
Lin Ye burst into a few wild laughs, completely ignoring her, and only became more ruthless in his punishment.
Soon,
Bai Shuya once again fell into a critically injured state.
Lin Ye had calculated the time.
30 seconds.
Enough time for the staff to recover its magic power, allowing her to use it again.
.......
This repeated.
Critical injury, healing.
Then critical injury again, then healing again.
Bai Shuya was on the verge of complete collapse, her eyes desperately sending out signals for mercy, but Lin Ye showed no intention of stopping.
Despair!
This time, she was truly in despair.
Although she had been an opponent before,
she could always endure until her limit.
After all, she was still human, and there was always a limit.
But now,
Lin Ye had obtained an SSS-rank talent. Only a deity knew what his current attributes were and how many times they had increased.
It was normal not to be able to defeat him.
But now she had no idea what her limit was, completely unaware of when the torment would end…
“Thump-thump~”
A knock suddenly sounded outside the door.
“Who is it?”
Lin Ye asked.
“Um…Lin Ye, are you going into the game tonight?”
Su Wanting’s voice rang out.
Lin Ye stopped, looked down at Bai Shuya, lifted her head, and whispered, “See, she even knows to knock.”
Without giving her a chance to speak,
Lin Ye then said to the door, “Do you have something, just say it directly.”
“Um…I, I don’t really have anything, it’s just that I haven’t been back to school for many days. Even if I don’t go back in the future, I still need to pack my things. It just so happens…it just so happens that I have time today, do you want to go together?” Su Wanting hesitated, finally finishing her sentence with great difficulty.
“No problem, wait a moment, I’ll go with you.”
Lin Ye said softly.
“This time, it’s on credit, next time, okay?”
“Mmm.”
“Let’s talk about it when the cross-realm talent and equipment come out next time.”
With this experience,
Lin Ye planned to bring out the gloves tomorrow.
The Time Reversal Gloves were very much needed in the game, but in reality, they were truly needed even more.
And the helmet.
He wanted both!
As for the missing resurrection and premonition, he could only find a way from other sources.
......
A moment later,
Lin Ye had showered, changed, and left.
Su Wanting was already waiting in the living room.
“Let’s go. Use Yan Yan’s car. One trip should be enough, right?”
Down in the garage,
Yan Yan’s purple Cullinan hadn’t been driven for some days.
Lin Ye had a driver’s license and knew the roads well.
The two quickly got onto the elevated highway.
Along the way,
Su Wanting was somewhat silent, not talking much. But as time passed minute by minute, and they were almost at the school,
Su Wanting finally couldn’t hold it in anymore and spoke with a flushed face:
“Um…um, Lin Ye, it seems a bit late now. The dorms should be inaccessible, right?”
Lin Ye said in surprise,
“Didn’t you want to come to school to get your things?”
“Whether it’s late or not, don’t you know?”
Su Wanting’s pretty face turned even redder: “I’m sorry, I…I seem to have forgotten to check the time. How about…how about we stay nearby for a night? That way, we can get our things tomorrow and then leave, how about that?”
“Poof!”
Lin Ye almost couldn’t keep a straight face.
Good heavens.
I could hear your calculations all the way from another planet!
So, this is how School Beauty asks someone out, so simple and unadorned?
Su Wanting was extremely nervous, rubbing her hands on the corner of her clothes, not daring to look at him more than once: “If it’s inconvenient…”
“It’s convenient. This car also has a problem, it probably can’t even make it to school.”
Lin Ye glanced around nearby.
On this road not far from the school, there wasn't much of anything else, but there were plenty of hotels.
“Let’s just stay here for a night and go back tomorrow.”
Lin Ye finished speaking, put on his turn signal, and prepared to pull over. In his rearview mirror, a dump truck showed no signs of slowing down.
“Damn it, a city dirt tank?”
Lin Ye thought to himself.
If I weren’t with someone in the car today, I’d really let you see what a goddamn human tank is.
Unfortunately, I can't.
Never mind.
He turned the steering wheel.
Lin Ye was a beat slow, letting the dump truck pass first.
But…
The dump truck in the rearview mirror, after getting closer, not only didn’t honk, but instead made a sudden swerve, heading straight for Lin Ye’s car.
“….Damn it!”
Lin Ye’s pupils flashed, and his thoughts raced. He immediately understood that the other party was coming for him.
Murder?
