I will never give in to Miss Death

With a wave of her hand, Yin Xiamo summoned her magic wand: "I would rather see your expression change from this unwavering look to... despair, depravity, falling into the abyss little by little, and finally becoming a child of darkness!"

"impossible!"

I took the initiative and waved my magic wand: "Water shape - punch!"

At this moment, my staff transformed into a pair of huge hands, and suddenly rushed towards the girl in front of me.

"It's just low-level magic. Do you think that kind of thing will have any effect on me?"

The girl sneered, and the power of thunder and lightning exploded on her body. A large thundercloud turned into a thunder seal that was even bigger than the Hand of Water, and it pushed my pure water back.

"That's your weakness, right? Your source of strength."

After winning with one move, Yin Xiamo didn't seem to be in a hurry to attack. She crossed her arms and stared at the water ball on the top of my magic wand: "As long as it is touched, it will cause a huge energy leak. If my lightning power penetrates into it... Hehe, the runaway water elemental power will turn your thing into a small fountain in an instant, soaking the entire space, right?"

"So what!"

I carefully watched the girl's every move in front of me: "If you want to use the power of thunder and lightning to penetrate, you are still ten thousand years too early!"

Just as Yin Xiamo said, my weakness is the water ball on the magic wand, which is also the "origin".

As the saying goes, water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. This origin core gave me strength, but it also exposed my weaknesses.

Once this "origin" is touched by the great demon Yin Xiamo in front, or even her lightning power penetrates in and causes the water element to "run wild", the consequences will be disastrous.

I have encountered a similar "water element runaway" crisis before.

At that time, the entire chaotic space was shrouded in the power of water. Then Yin Xiamo activated her thunder skills. A large amount of thunder and lightning power flowed into my body along with the water and quickly took away my consciousness.

"Haha, it seems that you haven't realized your dangerous situation yet!"

Seeing that I still refused to give up, Yin Xiamo waved his black wings and pounced towards me. The lightning power in his hands was quantified into two long whips, one on the left and one on the right, blocking all my retreat routes.

At this moment, a large amount of lightning power filled the space. Some electric arcs flowed along the water vapor towards my body, making me tremble all over.

"Just a little devil..."

Enduring the numbness all over my body, I controlled the water element in my body and waved my hand -

"Waterspout!"

A large amount of water gushed out from my core and hit the girl in front of me.

However, Yin Xiamo showed no fear at all and charged directly towards my "water tornado".

"Crash-"

In an instant, two water tornadoes hit Yin Xiamo's body, wetting her cheeks and the hem of her skirt.

"Hmm... Is this the taste of the water element in your body? It really tastes like a sweet spring!"

As I looked on in panic, the girl in front of me actually licked the water I splashed over her, then raised her hands.

"Thunder!"

"Boom!"

Countless thunderbolts descended from the sky, blocking all my escape routes.

"Ion Spark!"

Then, Yin Xiamo summoned two sparkling thunderclouds with her hands and threw them towards me whose body had already begun to be paralyzed!

"Alas!"

At this moment, affected by Yin Xiamo's powerful lightning force, I felt numb all over and could hardly move. The thundercloud hit my lower abdomen accurately. The electric current went up along my lower abdomen and quickly reached my central nervous system, leaving me with a blank consciousness.

“Aaaaaaa——”

The slender legs wrapped in soft white silk stockings stretched out uncontrollably, and the little feet wearing cute round-toed leather shoes first bent into a straight line, and then began to tremble constantly.

This lightning force was so overbearing that even the core of the magic wand in my hand - the light blue water ball began to shake irregularly, and clear liquid continued to flow out from the center of the water ball.

"Wake up, Nuoer, you can't resist my power!"

In my trembling vision, Yin Xiamo in front of me approached quickly with her whole body bathed in the power of thunder and lightning, then raised her jade hand surrounded by lightning and grabbed the magic wand in my hand directly——

"Puch!"

Yin Xiamo's lightning power flowed into my water element "origin" at this moment.

"ah--"

The fusion of electricity and water attributes produced a strong "electric shock" effect at this moment. I could no longer control the stability of my core, and the magic power in my body began to run wildly.

"Crash..."

After a while, the water element ball on the magic wand began to run wild, and a large amount of water gushed out.

"Well...you're still the same."

In my gradually blurry vision, I saw Yin Xiamo in the dark space showing a satisfied expression: "Kitty, I look forward to your next performance?"

"..."

……

I don’t know how much time passed before I slowly opened my eyes.

The first thing that catches your eye is a small patch of flowers.

Next to the flowers were several lush trees, and further away were dense green plants - it seemed as if I had fallen asleep on a lawn, and there was no one around.

No, there is someone.

My gaze fell on Yin Xiamo, whose eyes were curved into crescents and looking at me with a smile.

"Are you awake?"

Seeing that I woke up, the girl handed me a thermos bottle and said, "This is spring water from a nearby underground river. I just went to get it. It's very clean and a little cold. It can quickly replenish water and energy."

"Um...thank you."

I sat up with a dazed head, took Yin Xiamo's thermos, and took a look at the liquid inside: "Why can you get the spring water from the underground river?"

Hmm... Why does my body seem to have fought a fierce battle, and I look a little weak...

"Can't we just dig a hole and get it?"

Yin Xiamo said as a matter of course: "It's not difficult for me to use magic to dig a hole of 20 to 30 meters. The quality of the mineral water sold around here is too poor. Our little Nuoer is an elf from the Elf Forest, and he can't drink that kind of stuff."

"What little elf from the Elf Forest? I'm not that fragile."

Thinking that Yin Xiamo would not play a prank on me in the water at this time, I picked up the bottle and took a big sip of water.

Well……

How did she know I was thirsty?

After drinking more than half a bottle of water, I felt a lot better. I raised my head again and gurgled a lot.

It seems... it's really delicious?

After drinking most of the bottle of water in one breath, I slowly stood up from the lawn and looked around: "Where is this?"

After standing up, I felt really tired and took a deep breath.

Why does it feel like I was hugged by some unscrupulous god of death at home all night like a pillow?

Hmm... I'm still a little thirsty. Drink some more.

Thinking of this, I drank the water in the bottle in one gulp.

“A small garden next to the literature and art exhibition.”

Yin Xiamo in front of him smiled and said, "Don't worry, there is no one within 200 meters. Everyone has gone to the exhibition hall to read books."

Literary and art exhibition?

Yes! Art exhibition! Authors conference!

I looked around, felt in my pocket, pulled out my cell phone, and glanced at the time.

2:10 in the afternoon... Phew, not bad.

The invitation letter for the author conference states that the meeting time is 4 p.m., and everyone will get to know each other, discuss each other's books, or play mobile games. Then they will go to a restaurant to have a meal at around 5 p.m. and start the "author conference" with the editor and website operations.

To be honest, I don't know much about website operations. If you really want me to give you some advice, I can only say... Double attendance bonus! Authors will receive a 2000 yuan bonus for full attendance per month, and readers' subscription fees will be halved! A 1000-word novel used to cost 5 cents, but now it costs 2 cents, and all the subscription and reward money from readers will go to the author!

Ahem, of course I know that is impossible, the website also needs to be operated.

Those who can attend the authors conference this time are the authors on the list and a few specially selected "lucky authors". Most of the authors on the list have been writing books for a certain number of years and have more or less an understanding of the readers' daily needs. There must also be many people like Pipi who are always willing to help new authors and know the difficulties faced by authors today, so the website will definitely take their suggestions into consideration.

As for me...why did they invite me here?

Oh yes, Miguabao thinks that I want to develop here and hopes to train me to become their mainstream writer. This time they called me here mainly to let me listen to the opinions of the great authors here and learn some of their experiences and lessons.

"Why are you here?"

Thinking of this, I turned to Yin Xiamo beside me: "I remember you were practicing cycling over at Elodie's house just now? Why are you here now?"

Something is not right. I remember going to Snail House this morning, and then... Yang Kun, the property manager there, said that I didn't need to clean the house. I could deduct the water fee and give the cleaning lady a tip, and then he would return my deposit in full. I happily got on a taxi early in the morning and came to the art exhibition hall with the couple I was traveling with. Then I chatted with Pipi and the others, and went to the warehouse to meet the editor Catmint...

I don’t remember much of what happened after that. When I opened my eyes again, I was lying on the lawn in this small park.

I seemed to have called Yin Xiamo in the middle?

In other words... it was Xiaomo who brought me here?

Am I sick?

I lowered my head and raised my hands.

The girl's hands were as white as snow, her skin was as smooth as cream, soft and tender, flawless, and rosy, like a work of art, and did not look like they were sick.

But... these hands seem to have been "soaked in water for a while".

Just like when you take a shower and soak in water for too long, the skin on your fingers will become wrinkled. The difference is that now my hands are not as exaggerated as when they were soaked in water for several hours. The skin looks very tender, as if they had been soaked in water for a long time.

"You called me to come over."

Yin Xiamo had an expression that said "I don't know anything" and said, "They said Xiaomo is coming soon, I can't help it anymore..."

"what?"

I was a little confused. Thinking back to when I woke up, I felt something was wrong with my whole body. Not only was I extremely weak, but I also felt like I had a fight with someone. Many parts of my body were sore, and I was extremely thirsty. I subconsciously said, "Did I get a heat stroke?"

According to Yin Xiamo, my body now "basically will not get sick or infected, and its lifespan is close to infinite" and "has been tuned to perfection according to the conditions of contemporary society." From a scientific point of view, it means that I will basically not develop any disease.

I can resist almost all germs and viruses, which means I won’t catch a cold or have a fever, nor will I have some difficult and complicated diseases caused by autoimmune problems. “Adjusted to perfection according to the situation of contemporary society” means that my body can adapt to the social environment of about fifty years before and after. For example, this is a society with abundant food, which does not require such strong absorption and fat storage capabilities, so I basically have a physique that “can’t gain weight”. Moreover, because I have a strong metabolism, I can automatically break down many harmful substances, so it doesn’t matter if I often eat foods that are more likely to cause “rich diseases”.

However, it would be hard to say if such genes were placed in the era of food shortage in the past or in the war-torn era that may occur in the future. "Poor absorption" and "Not easy to gain weight" and so on. Once they appear in such an era of food scarcity, people with such genes will easily starve to death. So Yin Xiamo only said that my body just "conforms to the development trend of society in about 50 years."

But I am not "invincible" either.

I once pestered Yin Xiamo to ask this question in depth one night, and the answer I got was that apart from the above characteristics, my body was similar to that of ordinary people in most aspects.

To put it bluntly, if I don't eat, I will suffer from low blood sugar. If I am already extremely weak and don't eat, I may fall into a coma like an ordinary person.

If you fall into a coma and rely on the remaining energy in your body to wake up, but don't eat properly, you may starve to death.

Of course, since I have the attribute of "immortality", the "starvation to death" here is just a state of suspended animation.

When I am extremely weak but still seek death, for example, I am always hungry and I don't eat, and I really trigger the "starvation to death", it will trigger the "God's Domain" set up by Xiaomo. The power of the God's Domain will forcibly pull me back from the brink of death, allowing my body to recover to the state of about one or two hours before dying, and then let me experience the feeling of dying again. If I don't eat, I will starve to death, and then be saved a little bit, in an infinite cycle.

Similarly, if I was injured outside, such as an instant fatal injury like a car accident, then the power of the "God's Realm" would restore me to my pre-death state.

Under these circumstances, I could indeed get "heatstroke".

If I get up in the morning without drinking water, go to clean my small apartment, forget to drink water, and then go to the art exhibition hall, I will get heatstroke because I didn’t replenish my water bill in time, and I haven’t touched the "death realm", then the "god's realm" will not be triggered, it will just make me faint.

I am a petite girl now and my body doesn’t store much water. What if… ahem, I mean what if, what if I still think of myself as an uncle and my drinking habits are also like an uncle, then it is indeed possible... that I might get heatstroke because I forget to drink water?

That would explain everything...right?

Am I really so stupid as to get a heat stroke?

"Yes, yes, it's heat stroke."

For some reason, Yin Xiamo looked very happy when I said the word "heatstroke" on my own initiative: "You just... ahem, you called me at noon and said you felt a little dizzy, and then I came over to bring you out as soon as possible."

As if she was making up a lie, the girl in front of her was laughing and said, "When I got here, I saw that you, Nuoer, had gone to the rooftop of the art exhibition building to play by yourself. The sun was so strong that you might not be able to stand it after a while."

"Really?"

I lowered my head and looked at my clothes.

The top was a little messy and the shorts were a little crooked, revealing a small part of her white thigh.
