Rules of the Strange: Starting with the Weird Peppa Pig

Although Li Fan was a little confused as to why his older brother wouldn't let him go, he was determined to listen to his older brother.

Lucas continued speaking from the other side.

"Didn't I tell you that there's nothing in this storage room except some basic medical equipment? You still don't believe me. It seems you don't consider me a teammate."

Wuyin curled the corners of her lips and answered.

"We're just worried that you might miss something during your exploration."

Besides, we're less like teammates and more like temporary partners exploring together. There's no reason for me to trust you completely.

Lucas chuckled softly across from him.

"Heh... As expected of you, still as arrogant and conceited as ever."

But this time, you're doomed to lose.

Chapter 153 Not a Poker Face

"Oh? Is that so?"

"Let's have a match then, a fight to the death."

As Wuyin finished speaking, she summoned a scalpel from her toolbar, her eyes flashing with a dangerous light.

Lucas stared at Wuyin with a distorted expression.

He had expected to witness the legendary savior of the Dragon Kingdom in pain, despair, and sorrow, but he never imagined that this person would always appear calm and indifferent, as if nothing could affect his emotions.

Before he could think any further, Wuyin rushed forward swiftly, her scalpel tracing a silver arc as she stabbed towards Lucas's chest.

Lucas stared wide-eyed at the scalpel that was about to strike him, then staggered to the side to dodge.

The scalpel grazed past him, instantly slicing a small gash in his shoulder before finally pinning it to the door behind him.

He stared back and looked up. The scalpel nailed to the door slowly disappeared and finally returned to Wuyin's hand.

He couldn't believe that even teammates who usually cooperated and helped each other could be so ruthless.

He stopped pretending altogether, his body erupting with black mist, revealing sharp fangs and nails, and charged towards Wuyin.

Wuyin quickly dodged and once again wielded the scalpel at Lucas, each strike aimed at a vital point.

But Lucas had just been caught off guard. Now that he was prepared, he easily dodged the Silent Attack and immediately launched his own attack.

The two fought fiercely in the dark storage room, with black mist constantly emanating from them and dissipating into the air.

Just as they were locked in a fierce battle, Wuyin took a step back and withdrew from their battlefield.

He looked at Lucas, who was panting heavily, with a smile on his face and a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

Seeing this, Lucas assumed that Wuyin was out of energy and had no choice but to retreat. Just as he was about to press his advantage, he suddenly felt a chill run through his body.

His skin was sliced ​​open vertically, like a watermelon, and fell to the ground.

Only a strange man covered in black mist remained there.

He looked at Wuyin with a mixture of fear and anger, filled with hatred.

During the fight, he felt that Wuyin's sword strikes weren't too fast and were easy to dodge, so he thought Wuyin was weak.

He never expected that the other party was deliberately playing a trick on him, just to peel off the outer layer of skin it was wearing.

He's clearly stronger than him, yet he doesn't fight him seriously and instead tries to toy with him in this way; it's truly despicable.

But he didn't have time to think about anything else; he just wanted to escape the storage room immediately.

Without his skin, his strength would be greatly reduced.

They were no match for that despicable man to begin with, and if they fell into his hands now, they would truly be annihilated.

The strange man transformed into a wisp of black mist and was about to rush towards the door of the storage room when he saw a very annoying young man greet him.

"Hey^_^, we meet again, you skinner."

It's Li Fan.

The stranger became even angrier at the thought that any Tom, Dick, or Harry dared to block his way. He immediately transformed into human form and charged at Li Fan, brandishing his sharp claws.

Upon seeing this, Li Fan feigned surprise and exclaimed.

"Wow, so belligerent, why don't you go to the bullring and become a bull?"

After saying that, it quickly floated into the air, dodging the attack.

But the stranger's target wasn't Li Fan at all; he wanted to escape from the storage room.

But when he rushed to the door, he found that the door to the storeroom had been locked at some point.

He looked up at Li Fan, who was floating in the air, again. Li Fan made a face at him, as if to provoke him.

Enraged, he transformed into a cloud of black mist and charged towards Li Fan in the air.

Even if he dies, he'll take someone down with him!

Li Fan was startled when he saw the black mist rushing towards him. He quickly floated behind Wu Yin, still muttering something under his breath.

"Holy crap, this cow's gone mad... no, this man's gone mad!"

Wuyin had already collected all the leather on the ground and opened the box that had made the sound earlier.

The box was filled with bloody meat, and the lump of meat was still slowly wriggling. If you looked closely, you could see that the surface of the meat was emitting a layer of green light.

Wuyin tossed the human skin in and spoke calmly.

"Lucas, you owe me another favor."

The meat inside the box slowly wriggled, as if responding to the silence, and the pieces of skin stuck together, gradually forming a complete original skin.

Over here, after spotting Li Fan who had dodged, Wu Yin quickly looked at the rampaging black mist.

He shielded Li Fan behind him and suddenly stabbed the black mist with a scalpel.

The black mist flinched slightly as it was stabbed by the scalpel, and much of the black mist on its body dissipated.

But it went berserk, completely ignoring Wuyin's attacks and not attacking Wuyin at all, it just desperately rushed towards Li Fan behind Wuyin.

Silently intercepting, he swiftly and accurately stabbed the black mist with a scalpel.

The black mist never found an opportunity to attack Li Fan, who was being protected behind him. Instead, it grew fainter and fainter until it turned into a wisp of silk and disappeared into the air.

Seeing this, Wuyin and Li Fan both breathed a sigh of relief.

The two turned around, about to check Lucas's condition in the box, when Li Fan's expression suddenly froze.

The thin black thread had appeared behind the two of them without them noticing, shooting straight towards Li Fan.

Wuyin also saw the thin black thread, her expression changed, and she immediately tried to stab it with a scalpel, but it was too late.

The black filament moved extremely fast and was very small, penetrating Li Fan's brow in almost half a second.

The air fell silent instantly.

Wuyin looked anxious.

"Are you alright? Is anything bothering you?"

Li Fan's face was somewhat blank. He was about to slowly shake his head when his eyes rolled upwards, and he fainted.

"Li Fan!"

Seeing this, Wuyin quickly patted Li Fan on the ground, trying to wake him up, but Li Fan's body was completely limp and he was lying on the ground.

"Don't scare me, Li Fan. Didn't you say you'd go through fire and water for me? How could something happen to you now?"

At this point, Lucas had fully recovered.

Having already treated himself once, he was very skilled the second time and completely healed himself in just over ten minutes.

The first thing he heard when he woke up was a long string of mushy words from Wuyin, and his face showed a hint of surprise.

This was the first time he had ever heard Wuyin speak so much to express her emotions since he had known her, aside from when she was analyzing ghost stories.

I could also see tension and worry on Wuyin's face.

"So it wasn't a poker face after all..."

He lowered his eyes and muttered to himself softly.

Lucas seemed to understand; this person was not as emotionally detached as he had imagined.

But those things and those people were not things he cared about.

Chapter 154 He's really grown up

At this moment, Li Fan, who was on the ground, suddenly coughed twice.

Wu Yin's expression cleared, but then a hint of worry appeared on her face.

Lucas also looked over warily.

A trace of the skinned ghost had seeped into Li Fan's brow, so...

Can Li Fan still be considered Li Fan now?

Wuyin stared intently at Li Fan's face, a fine bead of sweat appearing on her hand gripping Li Fan's shoulder.

If Li Fan really isn't Li Fan anymore, he'll put Li Fan into the toolbar and figure out a solution later when he gets out.

Li Fan slowly lifted his eyelids, looked at the two serious-looking people in front of him, and said blankly.

"What...what's wrong with me...how did I suddenly fall asleep?"

Upon hearing this, the two breathed a slight sigh of relief, knowing that Li Fan was still the same Li Fan.

Wuyin explained.

"Just now, a wisp of the Skin-Peeling Demon's soul entered your brow. Did you feel any discomfort?"

Upon hearing this, Li Fan suddenly jumped up, covered his forehead, and said nervously.

"I remember now!"

"Just now, that thin black line pierced into my forehead, and then I suddenly lost consciousness."
