Chapter 128 Death! (February 7th, March 5th)

Slay the D-rank vengeful spirit.

Kaoru and Yukimura stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

That was a combat power far beyond their current understanding of ordinary people.

Chinatsu proved everything with her purest speed.

But the moment the overload ended, the backlash came like a landslide.

Chinatsu doesn't have Kurokawa's tough physique forged through countless trials, nor does she possess Kurokawa's ability to repair his body.

Her body went limp, and she fell straight forward, crashing heavily to the bottom of the charred pit, whereupon she fell silent.

"elder sister!"

When Xun saw Chinatsu fall to the ground, her heart clenched suddenly, and she cried out in shock.

Almost instinctively, she was about to take a step and rush towards Chinatsu in the distance.

That's the action.

This caused Xuecun to feel a sudden and intense sense of panic for no apparent reason.

A strange sense of déjà vu suddenly gripped her.

It felt like I'd seen this scene somewhere before.

It's not a memory, but more like a deeper, ingrained sense of fear.

She absolutely! Absolutely! Did not want to see what was about to happen again before her eyes.

What happened?

What exactly is this strange feeling?!

Her eyes darted frantically around her, trying to find the source of the unease that was making her heart race.

The faint voice that had occasionally appeared since absorbing magical energy rang in his ears again: "No—"

It was just a short syllable, yet it carried a heartbreaking despair.

Xuecun's lips moved unconsciously, but it was as if he had his throat choked, and he couldn't utter that complete word.

sizzle ————

The sound became distorted, like an old radio desperately trying to receive intermittent signals.

The intense sense of unease grew stronger and stronger, almost bursting through her chest and tearing her vocal cords!

She reached out, grasping at the air in vain.

Finally, those two words, which had been suppressed by an invisible force, broke through some kind of boundary, accompanied by Jinping's collapsing emotions, and escaped from her trembling lips: "No!!!"

brush!

In an instant.

The scene before Xuecun's eyes shifted eerily.

She was clearly standing on a smoke-filled playground, but at this moment she "saw" herself standing in a dimly lit school corridor.

Before me was Xun's back view.

She was running desperately toward the end of the corridor, where Chika lay in a pool of blood.

Where is this?

Before she could see clearly, the screen suddenly jolted, as if the signal had been interrupted.

She blinked.

The scene returned to the playground.

Kaoru's figure remained unchanged as she ran towards Chika, who had collapsed at the bottom of the pit.

Blink again.

The school corridor was filled with the smell of running.

Blink again.

On the playground, people were running.

Blink, blink, blink, blink, blink, blink —

Two completely different scenes began to flash and overlap wildly as she blinked uncontrollably!

The smoke from the playground mingled with the dim light and shadow in the corridor.

Kaoru's retreating figure running towards the bottom of the pit, and Kaoru's retreating figure running towards the pool of blood at the end of the corridor—

In that instant, on her violently throbbing retina, a deafening roar...

Total overlap!

The inexplicable panic in my heart suddenly transformed into an incredibly clear and heart-wrenching pain and resentment!

No!

don't want!!

Don't go there!!!

The battle is far from over!

There's still one D-level vengeful spirit left—the one that used the pen—still lurking in the shadows, still aiming at them!

Xuecun "sensed" it instantly.

A malevolent force, like the Sword of Damocles hanging overhead, has fallen, locking everything in its grip!

The threat of death was not directed at her.

They are the Suzukawa sisters!

It was Kaoru running towards her older sister, and Chinatsu lying unconscious on the ground!

That is————

With a "bang," it was as if countless fragmented images and information exploded in Xuecun's mind at the same time!

"Stillness—too long—locked—unable to escape—"

She suddenly "found out".

They knew the rules of the vengeful spirit of the hidden pen.

That's an extremely rare type of D-rank vengeful spirit, capable of triggering instant-death damage.

The triggering conditions are outrageously strict: if no "moving object" approaches or passes by within a ten-meter radius of the vengeful spirit within ten minutes.

It can accumulate power and launch an instant-death attack that cannot be dodged or defended against!

And now—how long has it been since Xun used the floating turrets to launch a counterattack?

Ten minutes, or even longer?!

Xun was completely unaware.

All she could see was her sister lying on the ground.

She had rushed to Qianxia's side and was anxiously bending down to check her injuries, her voice even trembling slightly.

Ten minutes, within ten meters — no moving objects.

All conditions have been met.

Just then, that familiar yet unfamiliar voice rang out in Xuecun's mind once again.

It was clearer and more resolute than ever before.

"This time—"

"Absolutely number one!"

The instant the sound faded.

The body moves faster than the mind.

Xuecun had already taken a step forward, using all his strength to run wildly towards the two sisters at the bottom of the pit!

at the same time.

In the night sky, a gray, inconspicuous "arrow" shot out silently from the broken window on the fourth floor.

It traced a perfectly ordinary parabola, its speed not particularly fast, yet carrying an indifferent air, as if it had locked itself onto the trajectory of fate.

The trail slowly descended towards the center of the pit.

Xuecun saw it.

Her heart almost stopped beating.

We absolutely must make it!!!

Her heart was screaming wildly; an inexplicable, immense grief, like a flood bursting its banks, instantly overwhelmed her.

My heart felt like it was being squeezed tightly, and the pain was so intense that I couldn't breathe.

This time————

I absolutely have to make it this time!!!

It felt as if it had traversed a vast expanse of time and endless regret.

Just as the gray arrow was about to hit the ground, Yukimura leaped forward and used his slender body to shield the Suzukawa sisters above him!

puff.

A soft sound.

It wasn't intense.

The gray arrow pierced her back easily, exiting from the left side of her chest, carrying warm blood.

The arrowhead stopped less than an inch from Xun's body.

Time seemed to freeze at that moment.

Yukimura could clearly feel the cold, hard foreign object embedded in his body.

Immediately following was not intense pain, but a chilling, deathly stillness, a power that seemed capable of freezing the soul.

Centered on the arrow, it spread wildly through her veins and internal organs like the most poisonous ink.

Life is being rapidly taken away.

Body temperature is dropping.

My strength is fading.

Vision began to blur, and dark spots appeared at the edges.

But it's strange...

She felt no fear of impending death.

On the contrary, there is a kind of————

A sense of relief and calm.

It was as if a huge boulder that had been hanging for far too long had finally been lifted to the ground.

A relentless nightmare has finally come to an end.

what----

I did it.

This time————

I finally did it!

Consciousness is like a candle flickering in the wind, about to be extinguished.

However, right around this dying boundary, everything—sound, light, airflow—suddenly, incredibly, slowed down.

No, it's not that the world is slowing down.

It was her perception that was infinitely stretched and magnified in the gap between life and death.

Time seemed to stand still for her for a moment.
