Terra's Magnetic Field

"Grandma...how bad is it?"

"So bad I might kill your uncle."

Lin's expression was serious when she said this, and there was a rare determination in her eyes. If things really developed to the point of no return, she would [kill her own relatives for the sake of justice]!

"Kill..." Qing Yan didn't say much. Since Lin said so, there must be a reason.

"For a long time, the Fire Scale Clan living in the North and the Thunder Scale Clan in our South have been relatives. Our two families have intermarried several times over the past few hundred years, and you also have some Fire Scale blood in your body. But in the final analysis, the characteristics of Thunder Scale and Fire Scale are so different that they can be divided into different races, which is greater than the difference between Vayvan and Draco outside."

This was the first time that Lin told Qingyan about the two tribes.

"We, the Leilin clan, are gentle by nature and not good at fighting. We are also more rational and intelligent than the Huolin clan. Our innate electrical storage angle and strong electrical resistance also make us more adept at practicing thunder magic. We value blood ties and are more able to form a family, which is much more united than the Huolin clan."

"Most of the Fire Scale Clan are aggressive and cruel by nature. Like the Wan family, they have a penchant for killing each other. Basically, every time a new clan leader is elected, a bloody storm will be set off in the North. Their Fire Scale Hearts that can generate and absorb flames and their super fire-resistant physiques allow them to naturally spit and control evil fire, making them natural destroyers."

(Huolin can absorb ordinary flames, and can also transform ordinary fire into evil fire in a turbo-charging manner in its heart, which means it can ignore fire attacks and become stronger as it burns. Their strength lies in their extremely strong hearts. The more powerful ones can even use them in a way similar to Ultra Bombs, that is, they run over and self-destruct, leaving only the heart and the cells can be reorganized)

"And among these dangerous creatures, a more dangerous individual will appear every few hundred years. They are more brutal and destructive than ordinary fire unicorns, and their power is also more tyrannical. We generally call them [Qilin Demons]" (The second-named Fire Unicorn monster, Gui Xinlin is still a battle-hardened individual, and his quality can compete with ancient dragons like Wanbao)

"Take Gui Xinlin for example. She was invincible in the tribe back then, so it was natural for her to become the tribe leader. Although she behaved like a normal person at the beginning, I knew she would go crazy, and she did go crazy later." Lin used a nonchalant tone when she mentioned Gui Xinlin, which showed her contempt for this woman.

(Although Lin’s mother, Evil Fire Kirin, is also an abnormal Kirin, in a sense, Lin is the abnormal Kirin, but now her offspring are more numerous than the orthodox Fire Kirin)

"That's too damn..." Qing Yan looked at Lin, "Has Uncle Dao turned into that Qilin demon now?" She looked at the charred corpses around her again. The more she walked forward, the more charred corpses there were, which meant that they were heading in the right direction.

"I don't know. Why do you think Gui Xinlin molded her only son into the image of Rupert?" Gui Xinlin asked herself, "I think she might have done it to protect her child. The Huo Lin clan has made too many enemies in Yan Country. If her son suddenly loses her protection one day, he might be hunted down by all kinds of enemies just for his Huo Lin appearance, and her lineage would be extinct."

"So what you mean, Grandma? ... Uncle Dao has returned to his original form?"

"Uh..." Lin was a little impatient, "How the hell should I know this? I'm not the omniscient Kal'tsit!"

Qing Yan had also heard the name "Kal'tsit" for the first time. Her great-grandmother seemed to have always had her own unique social circle. Lin had never mentioned this to her family, and the family knew very little about her. Maybe she wanted to maintain a mysterious image in the hearts of her family?

Since Lin was unhappy, Qingyan didn't dare to ask.

If Gui Adao was standing in her position at this moment, he would definitely say something harsh about Lin. Among the people in Simuitai, he was the only one who dared to confront and interact with Lin.

If that guy is really gone, Lin would probably feel lost too, right?

"Okay, let's barbecue here!" Lin pointed casually, then walked to that place, took out a folding barbecue grill from the big backpack behind him, unfolded it, lit a fire underneath, and put a piece of raw meat on the grill.

"Thump thump thump~thump thump thump thump~thump thump thump~" Lin hummed a strange little tune while spinning the raw meat.

"Grandma! What are you doing?!" Qing Yan shouted at Lin.

Qing Yan's voice disrupted Lin's rhythm. She should have lifted the roasted meat at the end of the first small piece, but she turned it one more circle and the meat got burnt.

"It's all your fault! The raw meat was burnt. Now my endurance can only be increased by half!?" Lin said something confusing and put the burnt meat to his mouth to chew on.

"So why are you grilling in a place like this?"

"You don't understand this, do you?" Lin pointed the charred meat at Qing Yan, "We are carrying out a capture mission this time, so we have to lure your Uncle Dao out with the smell of barbecue first, and then use the trap..."

It sounds like catching some small animal...

Lin took out the folding trap device developed by Simu Tai from his backpack and said with interest, "Except for

In addition to tranquilizer bullets, I also brought two traps, a pitfall trap and a paralysis trap, just in case. Once I use up your uncle Dao's stamina bar, I can capture him."

"What the hell is going on here? Grandma, you are just kidding, right? If you want to find Uncle Dao, why don't you just use your power to sense him? Why do you have to do this meaningless thing..."

"Shut up! Stop questioning my wisdom!" Lin interrupted Qing Yan ruthlessly, took out a piece of raw meat and put it on the rack to roast, then repeated the previous tune.

"Thump, th ...

"Okay!" Lin held up the cooked meat, which was gleaming in the sun. She felt quite accomplished, and then she started eating, talking as she ate:

"Hmm... it tastes good..." The large piece of thigh meat looked very small in Lin's hand, and there were only a few bites left. "If it's that Kal'tsit, the food she cooks can give us a boost, like Filin's Great Perseverance and Filin's Short-term Hypnosis... If one of us is defeated, she can also transport us back in a trailer, but only three times at most~"

Lin spoke nonsense in a joking tone. Perhaps her thinking had long been different from that of normal people.

"Why are you so stern? Aren't the jokes about Kal'tsit that grandma told funny? You haven't inherited my unique sense of humor at all..."

Lin was somewhat dissatisfied with Qingyan's reaction. This child was too rigid. Obviously, Wan and the others would laugh after hearing it, and then join her in mocking Kal'tsit.

"Grandma, why did Uncle Dao turn into the Qilin Demon?" Qing Yan sat opposite Qilin's barbecue grill. It was a weird taste to grill meat in this place where charred corpses were everywhere.

"I don't know. I'm not from the Huolin clan..." After finishing the barbecue, Lin calmed down a little and said seriously:

"Maybe it's because of anger?... Yadao must have encountered something that made him extremely angry, and this anger acted on his body, allowing him to remove the [Seal] set by Gui Xinlin... It may also be that anger made his strength surge, allowing him to break through the seal and restore his original appearance..."

"That's what the comics in the East Country say. I don't really know much about the Huolin Clan."

"But no matter what..." Lin's eyes darted around, taking in the miserable scene, "He wouldn't be able to do such a thing in his normal state, right?"

"Perhaps he has lost his mind now and turned into a monster that only follows his instinct to destroy and kill..."

"Gu..." Qing Yan swallowed her saliva again after hearing this. She saw the sunset slowly sinking into the horizon, and night was about to come...

That’s all for today.

Mission name: [Capture★Gui Adao is the Qilin Demon? ]

Client: The mysterious leader of Si Sui Tai, Lin

Trigger condition: Lin found that the snacks in the residence were all eaten, but Gui Adao had not appeared. In order to solve this problem, she and Qingyan set out to find Gui Adao...

Mission description: The missing Gui Adao is unknown. It is likely that he has been stimulated and turned into a Qilin demon. In order to stop him from continuing to destroy, he must be captured and brought back to Simuitai

Difficulty: ★★★★★ (Receive at the Si Sui Tai Mission Counter)

Postscript: Anyway, Ark has recently linked up with Monster Hunter, so it’s okay for me to play with the meme? I feel weird after bringing in the Monster Hunter setting.

Suddenly I remembered that I completed Rise of the Tomb Raider, but I didn’t defeat the black dragon in Iceborne. I just had no motivation, because after defeating the final boss, wouldn’t the game be [finished]?

It's quite contradictory. Maybe I'm just reluctant to do so... It's the same as in Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Although all the legendary beasts have been defeated, Ganon has never been defeated.

My cat is called Kal'tsit, and I made her green so that she can be my slave. My dog ​​is Texas.

Chapter 328: Caged Kirin

"Dao'er, you have a very dangerous character."

"Lin, why do you say that?"

"Lin... You never call me grandma... Never mind, just call me Lin... You are used to suppressing yourself. Maybe it's because you lived in fear with Gui Xinlin since childhood that you developed the habit of suppressing your emotions. But this is not good, because the emotions you suppress will not disappear, but will accumulate somewhere in your heart, just like the [anger tank]"

"This metaphor... you play too many games..."

"It's really like a rage tank, isn't it? The repressed emotions you have accumulated are getting more and more. Sooner or later, it will exceed the threshold you can bear. At that time, as long as there is a little stimulation to the spark in your heart, it will cause a [Big Explosion]."

"I don't know what will happen after you completely release your suppressed emotions, nor can I guess when your patience will come to an end. I always feel that you are like a [time bomb], which makes me feel uneasy and [distressed]."

"Hey~ Feeling sorry for me? Lin didn't expect that you would care about me."

"I'm not joking. What's wrong? Do you find it strange that I, as your grandmother, care about you? In fact, in my heart, both you and Qingyan are important children and family members. It's just that you have been cold and indifferent since childhood, so I don't know how to care about you. Whenever I want to hug you, you push me away. You are not good at accepting other people's kindness and always feel that they have ulterior motives."

"I always feel that you are very similar to my master..."

"Master? Wan Bai Emperor? If he had a personality like mine, how could he have taught you to be like this?"

"Hmph~ You are such a sharp-tongued brat. The more you talk like this, the more it reminds me of my master. He also likes to lecture me and make sarcastic remarks like you, and he is also used to suppressing himself. Perhaps it is to maintain the majesty of the emperor, he rarely

She smiled in front of other people, but rarely showed her gentle side to me. "

"Dao'er... Grandma's master toiled all his life. He spent his life repeating the process of gaining, losing, gaining, and losing. Nothing could stay with him for long. His beloved wife and his most beloved daughter both died before him. When he no longer had any attachment to this world, he disappeared. I still don't know where he went in the end."

"Maybe he has died a long time ago... maybe he is still stubbornly living in this world in another form... but no matter what, he must be living a lonely life. After his sister, lover, daughter and other people he cared about left, there was no one to accompany him through the long night, and he could only walk alone in the darkness."

(Although there is still Wanbao who can't die, Wanbai probably doesn't want to see her again)

"………………………………"

"What's wrong? Can't you say something sarcastic anymore?"

"No...Lin...I'm just wondering what the emperor was thinking in the last moments of his life. His past, passion, bravery, family, and love all ceased to exist in the end. Did he really die alone somewhere in the end? Nothing was left in the end..."

"So grandma doesn't want you to be like that, Dao'er... You shouldn't suppress yourself anymore. You should have your own ideas and desires. That way you can live more easily on this earth, right?"

"Lin, what's the point of you saying this now? You and I both know what's holding me back, how can I really let go of it all? If all I want is to leave here, sever ties with you, and start a free life with a new identity, can you really agree to that?"

"………………………………"

"Can't you tell me? Well, let's not talk about this anymore, shall we? It's good for everyone..."

"Dao'er, is this what you want? Is this what you want? Abandon everything here, leave grandma, Qingyan and everyone in Simuitai..."

"So? Lin, will you agree? If you don't agree, if you can't do it, then don't mention it again. If you can't do it, then you shouldn't give me such expectations. I will pretend nothing happened... I'm leaving, there are still things to deal with at Si Sui Tai..."

“…………………………………………”

"Dao'er... maybe this is really my fault... maybe..."

That’s all for today.

Chapter 329 You can only experience this kind of thing yourself

"Qingyan, please move aside," Lin stood up and quickly tore off the meat from the roasted thigh bone, puffing his cheeks and saying:

“The next scene may not be very pretty.”

She threw the thigh bone aside, and the crisp sound of the bone hitting the ground echoed in the place.

"Hmm?" Qing Yan looked in the direction that Lin was looking at. In the darkness, there was a huge thing moving around, lying on the ground like a beast, with red light emitting from several parts of its body.

Qing Yan estimated that the thing was at least ten feet tall, and it gave her a sense of oppression that only a giant beast could have.

"Hu...Hu..." The thing's heavy breathing made the air nearby hot and dry. The temperature, which was only a few degrees, suddenly soared to more than 30 degrees, which is only seen in midsummer. The ground was as hot as after being exposed to the scorching sun.

"roar---------"

"Grandma, is this Uncle Dao? He seemed to be making a terrifying roar..." Qingyan watched Lin leave the barbecue grill.

Lin walked towards the direction where the roar came from, teasing as he walked:

"Yo~ I haven't seen you for a few days and you've turned into this freak you are now. How would your past self evaluate your current self?"

"Knife?"

As soon as Lin finished speaking, the guy hiding in the darkness shot out like a bullet, making a "swish" sound and breaking the silence of the night.

From Qingyan's perspective, Lin was wrestling with the giant in the dark. The burning black flames made it impossible for her to see what was happening in the dark. She only knew that her grandmother was struggling.

Is that thing really strong enough to make Lin, who has the power of more than ninety layers of heaven, struggle? No, if Lin just started the battle with the purpose of defeating this guy, the battle could be ended after dozens of rounds, but that would not solve any problems.

As long as the pressure remains, Gui Adao is still at risk of becoming like this, so Lin wants to use his body to bear this guy's anger and resentment, lying on the ground without resistance and letting this thing beat, bite, and burn...

If this could allow him to vent, if this could make him relax... Lin would endure the pain, because he was also his child.

Lin can make sacrifices for her children when necessary, just like what her master did to her, Wan Shi, and Lei Ting...

She used to have a good relationship with Wan Shi and Lei Ting, and was as close to Lei Ting as a sister, but later Wan Shi died in battle, and Lei Ting also parted ways with her because of different ambitions. Now he has gone to a distant place and no longer associates with her...

Therefore, Lin would neither resist nor fight back. She put away the golden light that protected her body, and only used her simple body to bear the heavy punches on her face, chest, and other places. She did not even use her strength to repair her injuries, but just endured the scars and burns left by Gui Adao, even though those things had completely disfigured her beautiful appearance.

“…Grandma…” Qing Yan stood there stiffly. She knew that this was not something she could interfere with. Since Lin had decided to sacrifice himself for Gui Adao, she could only watch silently.

Two lines of hot tears flow from the blue inkstone

Flowing from the corners of eyes.

This one-sided beating lasted from nightfall until sunrise the next day. After the thing that Danggui Adao transformed into threw the last punch, his body began to deflate, and his appearance changed from a ten-foot-tall alien back to his original appearance of Lupert.

“Ah?!...Lin...you…” When Gui Adao regained consciousness, he saw the unrecognizable Lin at first sight.

The golden hair she was once so proud of was burned and twisted and blackened. Her delicate face was beaten to a bloody mess by heavy punches, and in some places one could even see the white bones. One of her eyeballs bulged out of the eye socket, with blood vessels attached... One of the golden horns on her head was broken off, and the light pink medulla flowed out from the broken surface.

With such a pretty face, there is no need to say more about her body.

"This is...? This..." Gui Adao was incoherent. He looked to the right and saw Qing Yan, who was already crying. In his impression, she was always so strong that she had never cried like this...

He looked at his bloody fists and his tattered clothes stained with blood, and it was self-evident what had happened.

“I did this…”

Qingyan nodded slightly while sobbing.

"Lin, why did you do this? For a hopeless person like me... I have killed many people... Maybe I should commit suicide..."

"Pa!" A fierce slap hit Gui Adao's face. This was the first time that Lin taught him a lesson as an elder. Lin said sternly:

"No matter what happens, you shouldn't have thought of giving up your life? My grandson shouldn't be so weak! I do this only because you are my child... Is there any reason for this?"

"Ah..." Gui Adao was stunned by Lin's slap. Lin's broken teeth made her words unclear, but her emotions also reached the deepest part of Gui Adao's heart.

Gui Adao was silent for a while and then said:

"But Lin... I lost control. I couldn't suppress my anger. All along, I aimed to stop others from killing people in this land, but now I have become one of those lunatics. Gui Xinlin's crazy bloodline remains in my body. I can't guarantee that I will not be like this in the future. Maybe my survival will bring disaster to this land in the future..."
