Chase Game

With the help of the Wind Speed ​​Shoes, Ling Yi, though unable to shake off Li Fang, shouldn't have been caught up.

However, Li Fang was determined to end the game completely in this mark-and-flight chase, so she used some kind of prop and was even faster than Ling Yi.

However, Li Fang knew that marking time was not enough to catch up with him, so she decisively used the overtime card.

[Please note that the pursuer has used a time card, increasing the mark time by one minute.]

Ling Yi immediately retaliated with a time reduction card.

The increase and decrease directly cancel each other out, but Li Fang is clearly more experienced.

She actually pulled out another overtime card and added another minute to the time limit.

She used her props as if they were free, seemingly decisive, but in reality, her inner dissatisfaction had reached its peak.

Every prop is precious, especially those brought in from outside the venue; they represent genuine heritage, and each one used diminishes the remaining supply.

The more she thought about it, the more she wanted to catch Ling Yi and torture him severely.

The underground parking garage was blocked off by Li Fang beforehand, and the props Ling Yi had couldn't directly help him escape. Seeing that the two were getting closer and closer, he didn't have any good ideas.

Li Fang knew that Ling Yi had run out of tricks and it was time to deliver the final blow.

With the two thirty meters apart, Li Fang finally activated her hunter-specific skill—

Darkness quickly enveloped Ling Yi, and then nine powerful spotlights suddenly shone, blinding him.

Domain skills!

Ling Yi instantly realized that once you were hit by this scene-altering skill, you were in the caster's territory and it would be difficult to escape.

However, he immediately threw out the Round Mirror, whose skill, Shattered Realm, is specifically designed to counter such skills, but it has a activation condition: the mirror must be smashed.

However, the spotlights began to sweep across the entire venue, as if searching for a protagonist.

Soon, one of the spotlights found Ling Yi and shone it vertically down on his head, and he found himself unable to move.

To make matters worse, the round mirror was also illuminated by a spotlight, freezing it in mid-air and preventing it from falling.

In the darkness, the sound of high heels clicking and clacking rang out, and Li Fang appeared directly in front of her.

The spotlight swept across Li Fang again and again, until finally the seven beams converged into one, illuminating her from all directions and following her closely.

This is her stage, the [High Heels Catwalk Show]. The entire scene transforms into a catwalk, thirty meters long, starting with Li Fang and ending with Ling Yi, where a fashion show will take place under the spotlight.

Once illuminated by a spotlight, one will be immobilized and unable to move, but skills and items can still be used without restriction.

On the 30-meter runway, it only took Li Fang 20 seconds to walk up to Ling Yi, her face beaming with a confident smile.

What should I do?

Having run out of tools to escape, defeat seemed inevitable...

The more this happened, the calmer Ling Yi felt inside.

He closed his eyes and felt as if he were sitting cross-legged in the middle of a vast lake, but he was constantly sinking.

Tonight's experience was so surreal it felt almost unreal, but it was undoubtedly the most exciting moment of his life so far. In this game of chase, there was an indescribable emotion surging within him.

He didn't know what it was, but he knew that if he fell here, he would never have the chance to find out.

A drop of water falls from the sky onto the lake surface, creating ripples.

Ling Yi has found the only way out.

The first item he acquired was something he picked up along the way, something he hadn't really placed much hope in—

The Magician's Hat can conjure pigeons.

Now, this prop has become the key to his escape from the predicament.

[Pigeons are the magician's best companions], skill activated, a dozen white doves fluttered out from the classic black top hat.

Seeing this, Li Fang could only use several spotlights to deal with the situation, but there were too many pigeons, and several still escaped being caught.

The target of these pigeons that slipped through the net was the "round mirror," which they knocked out of the spotlight's field of vision.

The round mirror fell to the ground with a few cracking sounds, its surface shattering into pieces.

The [Shattered Realm] skill was activated, and the entire catwalk show scene began to collapse, allowing Ling Yi to escape.

Li Fang, whose skills were forcibly destroyed, seemed to suffer a severe backlash, her legs bent in a strange position, and she lay paralyzed on the ground, unable to move.

Ling Yi did not choose to run immediately, but he also did not approach Li Fang. Instead, he kept his distance and observed her for a while.

Although she is in very poor condition, it seems that she has used some kind of recovery item, and her legs are gradually straightening. It looks like she will be able to jump around again soon.

His best course of action now is to leave, but—

This might be their only chance to turn the tide.

He couldn't help but think that way.

Time was running out, and there was no time to hesitate. After a brief moment of consideration, he decided to take the risk.

Seeing that Ling Yi not only didn't run away, but instead cautiously approached her, Li Fang, who was originally burning with anger and about to explode, now laughed—a laugh of anger.

"Heh, instead of running away, you're coming closer. Do you think you can turn the tables and kill me?"

"right."

Faced with Ling Yi's frankness, Li Fang felt a lump in her throat.

"That's utterly absurd! I've only ever heard of pursuers chasing each other, never of fugitives turning the tables. Besides, what means do you have to kill me?"

Ling Yi said calmly, "The opportunity is here, so we have to give it a try. Besides, the only thing you can move right now is your mouth, right?"

He was right. Li Fang could only move her mouth, but that didn't stop her from being arrogant. She had thought she might lose, but that would only be because she was worn down by time, not because she was counter-killed.

"Hmph, so what? With the [Wooden Shield], you can't hurt me at all... cough cough cough, what did you throw in my mouth?"

Li Fang coughed violently. She had just been talking when this guy, lacking any sense of martial ethics, suddenly attacked and threw something into her mouth.

She didn't even realize she was using the wooden shield.

Ling Yi smiled slightly and said, "A seed."

The skill [Seed of Plunder] [Plunder] is activated.

Li Fang could feel something stirring inside her body, and as that thing moved more and more violently, her body felt weaker and weaker, and her strength was gradually draining away.

【Seeds of Plunder】As the name suggests, these are seeds that plunder life.

The seed entered Li Fang's stomach through her esophagus and took root in the stomach wall. Its roots continuously absorbed Li Fang's life force to support the seed's growth.

Li Fang cried out in anguish, while Ling watched quietly.

What grudge do the two have?

There was nothing like that before entering the game, but after entering the game, Ling Yi couldn't shake the feeling that Li Fang had said—

"I'll take your mind, turn you into a vegetable, and put you in my display case."

"Now, you are going to become a real 'vegetative state' person."

Li Fang stopped crying, and from her wide-open mouth, a tender green sprout broke through the darkness, swaying gently in the wind.

The pursuer has lost vital signs.

[Congratulations to Ling Yi, the fugitive, on your successful escape!]
