Chapter 14: Be My Partner, Li Jing

All you need to do is ...... Just run faster than the other person?

Li Jing's heart pounded like a drum, and the sound of blood boiling and rushing shook his mind like a tsunami.

The instinct from living creatures makes him subconsciously want to make the most survivable choice.

In an instant, he pushed the little boy away and ran to the inpatient building alone.

"Little girl, you go over there, let's run separately!"

Not far in front of the two of them is the building of the inpatient department, and on the right hand side is the vast avenue in front of the building, and the little girl was pushed to the avenue by him.

Escaping into the inpatient building may still have some life by taking advantage of the terrain, but how can you escape the pursuit of the Nightmare Beast on the avenue without obstacles?

[Bastard! Dog stuff! 】

[Li Jing, I elaborate on your dream! ] 】

[Xiao Liang has been so good to you in the past two days, but you let her help you attract attention for yourself? ] 】

[Running separately? Xiao Liang didn't run as fast as you, and you still slipped into the inpatient building and let Xiao Liang go to the front avenue without any obstacles alone? 】

[When I encounter a tiger, I just need to run faster than the person next to me, right?] 】

[I can only say that I can see people's hearts under danger, although I know that this is human nature, but when I see this scene, I still ......]

[As a player, Li Jing's approach is actually ...... That's right, the lives and deaths of people on the other plane are actually ...... to us Unrelated, but, but...... Alas. 】

[I don't want to read it anymore.] 】

[Li Jing, you trash! Rubbish! Cowards who will only hide behind women! 】

[Damn, I'm so angry! Labor and management are really going to sharpen their knives now! 】

The sound of the nightmare beast crawling on all fours on the ground was getting closer and closer, Li Jing didn't care to explain, and after saying this, he ran towards the building in front of him.

Xiao Liang looked at his back running away without any nostalgia, and a trace of coldness flashed on his face.

Oh, is that really the case?

Whether it's this world or any other world, it's ......

It's no different.

Her immature palms clenched unconsciously, and a trace of pain flashed in her heart that she didn't even notice, like a broken porcelain piece that had been pieced together by countless pieces collapsed with a bang.

It's strange that I have a slight ...... for him

It was as if the last glimmer of hope had been smashed by the hammer of darkness, shattering to the ground.

It's ridiculous, knowing that there is no such thing anymore, but in my heart I am still ridiculously pursuing my own hopes......

The clenched fist clenched even tighter, and the nails dug deep into the flesh, sweeping away the fragments.

As a result, the soul that had sunk into the abyss completely fell into hell.

Boring game.

Uninteresting toys.

The innocent light in her eyes dissipated, leaving only coldness, indifference and calm.

The clenched fist was released, and she lightly stretched out her palm, pointing at Li Jing's fleeing back, about to release the breath of the King of Nightmare Beasts and order the Nightmare Beast to destroy this toy that made her happy.

Suddenly, her fingers stopped in mid-air.

Her mind froze for a moment.

It was precisely because her emotions returned to deathly silence and calmness that at this moment, she suddenly figured out Li Jing's intentions.

Just like the barrage in the live broadcast room, seeing Li Jing's behavior, he was excited at first and criticized him, but the smart man quickly stood up and explained his original intention for him.

[Brothers, don't scold, just now I suddenly found out that we were all wrong, have you forgotten the principle of action of the Nightmare Beast? 】

[Nightmare Beasts will give priority to hunting pure humans who have not bred Nightmare Beasts in their bodies!] The reason why Li Jing pushed Xiao Liang away was not because he wanted Xiao Liang to die to buy time for her, but because he was sacrificing himself to fight for Xiao Ling's chance to survive! 】

[If two people run together, they will only be caught up and killed by the Nightmare Beast together, and if they run separately, the Nightmare Beast will definitely give priority to chasing and killing Li Jing!] The little boy may be able to live! 】

[Li Jing asked Xiao Liang to go to the avenue and escape to the inpatient building by himself, not because he was deliberately killing Xiao Ling, but he knew that if he could escape into the building, he would be able to delay as much time as possible until Liu Lingxue arrived! ] 】

[He is creating as many chances of survival as possible for himself, and even if he dies first if he doesn't hold on, Xiao Liang will have a greater probability of surviving! ] 】

[Brothers, we are all wrong to blame Li Jing! 】

Yes, in the eyes of the little girl, Li Jing's choice is only to abandon her and run for her life and take her to death with her.

But in Li Jing's eyes, there has always been only one way to bring the little boy to die together, and the little boy may live with him, and there is no worse choice except for the worst!

Since there is a high probability that he may die, why not try to save the thigh of the little boy first, in case I am still alive in the end, won't I be able to continue to mess around with the little guy?

Mixing is also a science.

In a game, if you want to win as a bastard, you must not only learn to mix, try to drag each other to mix with yourself, but also be able to protect your big daddy!

Big Daddy doesn't die, the game can win!

The same is true here for Li Jing, in his heart, if it weren't for Liu Lingxue accidentally bringing the two nightmare beasts here today, he would follow the little good guy and the big daddy, and he would be able to keep it through the seven days steadily, complete the system task, and be invincible from now on!

Since both horizontal and vertical will die, why not gamble on a chance to protect the big daddy, in case not only the big daddy lives, but I also survives?

This is the wonderful misunderstanding caused by the information gap between him and the little girl.

Because although the law of action of the Nightmare Beast is to give priority to hunting pure humans who have not given birth to Nightmare Beasts in their bodies, in the two-day experiment of Xiao Yan, it has been concluded that perhaps because they are from another world, this rule is not effective for players.

It's like no matter what nightmares she brings to the player, they can't give birth to Nightmare Beasts in their bodies.

Yes, if this rule works, the players who came to the ten cities of this plane at the beginning will probably have been caught and found by the monsters in the city, and the achievement of the annihilation of the whole army at the beginning of the game is happy, how can there be time for development?

The player and the survivors of this world's native world are people from two worlds, different people.

Therefore, she may have a trace of Li Jing inexplicably in her heart......

That's why she told Li Jing that she had a way to help him, a pure human, avoid the search for the Nightmare Beast.

Actually, there isn't at all, because it's not needed.

Because as long as he stayed with her and didn't go out, he wouldn't encounter the Nightmare Beast.

Because from the beginning to the end, he lived with the most terrible monsters in the city.

Li Jing mistakenly thought that this rule would work for him, but Xiao Liang had long known that this rule would not work for him, so she thought that Li Jing pushed her away in order to sacrifice her life to save herself and delay time.

But no.

No.

He's different from everyone else.

He was unlike anyone she had ever seen, father, mother, the doctors at the Institute, survivors of the apocalypse plagued by nightmares...... are all different.

The light that was shattered by the hammer of darkness, the faint longing and hope that had been buried in the depths of my heart, suddenly burst out of brilliant pure white at this moment, and rose in my heart like a brilliant sun.

Stop it.

She meditated in her heart, and her petite body suddenly exuded an abyss-like infinite and terrifying aura.

Stop it.

She gave orders with her mind.

Chasing Li Jing to lift a wrist and foot and look at the nightmare beast that was about to pierce his back, he suddenly stopped moving.

Because at this moment, it suddenly felt an extremely terrifying aura.

It was a massive, more powerful, more terrifying, darker being than it, casting a striking shadow over it.

"Whew...... Call...... Whew......"

Li Jing desperately rushed into the inpatient building, only to feel that his lungs burned as if they were burning.

The sound of chasing behind him did not stop, but fortunately, he finally entered here and could have more time to delay.

Originally, he thought that he might be chased by the monster and taken away by a wave when he rushed to the door of the building, but he didn't expect that maybe he broke out at a speed far beyond usual in a desperate situation of life and death, and he actually managed to get in.

Without time to rest, he continued to run deeper into the building.

Although the nerves and muscles in the body are all coming from the message that they are about to be cut off and burned out at this moment, whether it is for the sake of the little girl, for themselves, and especially for their own bastard cause, they can't give up now!

[Original...... Are we all wrong about Li Jing? 】

[Yes, the Nightmare Beast is indeed rushing towards him! 】

[I apologize for what I said earlier, Li Jing, although you like to mess around, mess up, and bully the little boy young and ignorant, but you are a real man! 】

[I have to say that my impression of him has completely changed at this moment. 】

[Li Jing, come on! ] You must hold on until Liu Lingxue arrives! 】

[Don't die, Li Jing, I am willing to use my ten years of life in exchange for you and the little girl to survive! ] 】

[I'm a year! 】

[I'm a hundred years! 】

At this moment, even the barrage in the live broadcast room sweated in his heart, clenched his fists and looked at the picture of Li Jing's escape with anxiety, and kept praying and cheering for him.

Xiao Liang did not stop this nightmare beast's pursuit of Li Jing, but only slightly released a trace of breath every time he saw that the nightmare beast was about to catch up with Li Jing, which made it frightened Zhang Huang's slowdown and hesitated, giving Li Jing more time to breathe.

After all, there was a player in the cafeteria next to her, and she didn't want to reveal her identity so soon.

Especially in front of Li Jing.

Although it was a toy to pass the time when she was bored, the weight of this toy that she threw away suddenly became a little different in her heart.

It became a precious toy that only she could own and was reluctant to share with others.

Airplanes!

Suddenly, there was a crisp sound in the cafeteria, accompanied by the sound of a huge creature falling to the ground.

Liu Lingxue hurriedly ran out of the cafeteria with a sword.

"Where's Li Jing?"

Her face was flushed, her breath was extremely unstable, and it was obvious that she had used some powerful and self-destructive trick to take down the nightmare beast so quickly.

But in an instant, she became radiant again, as if she had been resurrected with full blood.

Li Jing was still entangled with another nightmare beast in the inpatient building, or a unilateral escape.

Call.

OK...... I caught up.

Listening to the movement inside, Liu Lingxue breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at the little girl, and then immediately rushed towards the movement of the place, so fast that it seemed to pull out an afterimage in the sun.

[Li Jing, hold on, Liu Lingxue has already solved the nightmare beast, and I will come to save you immediately! ] 】

[Brothers, seeing the dawn of hope, Goddess Ling Xue is already rushing here! 】

【Great!】 】

[In order to save Li Jing, Sister Ling Xue seems to have used some kind of self-destructive moves, and Sister Ling Xue is also the real light of humanity! ] 】

[Liu Lingxue, my goddess! 】

With the arrival of Liu Lingxue, the atmosphere in the live broadcast room suddenly relaxed a lot.

Liu Lingxue's live broadcast room was even more crazy with barrages praising her, occasionally mixed with barrages such as those who felt that she didn't need to save such an inconsequential player.

Sou!

Liu Lingxue came to Li Jing and looked at this man who was extremely embarrassed because of his escape, and a trace of appreciation flashed in her eyes.

Swish!

She suddenly drew her sword, and the ice-like blade pulled out a dazzling sword light in the air!

After killing the nightmare beast just now, the increase in source power made her even more powerful than before, and at this moment, facing this lone nightmare beast, she was fully confident that she could kill Li Jing without injury on the premise of protecting it!

Whew!

Moonlight shone and bloomed in the air.

This is a beautiful and dazzling sword light, and it is also a brilliant and life-threatening sword light.

When such a sword light fell on a monster that did not belong to a human, it was equally fierce and terrifying!

Whew!

Moonlight landed on the Nightmare Beast, severing its limbs.

The sword light tore through its limbs and took its life with it.

No, it couldn't be taken away completely, its four legs were cut off, its two heads fell from its neck, and it could no longer spew out disgusting and salivating maggots.

But it wasn't dead, a faint crimson glow looming over its body, which was its core.

Liu Lingxue put away her long sword in a chic manner, and her elegant and beautiful figure was as slim as a lotus flower, which was stunning and moving.

The place where the beast fell was a bloody mess, and her body was spotless, like a fairy from the snow, standing in front of Li Jing.

"Li Jing."

She handed the long sword to Li Jing and smiled at him.

"This nightmare beast is handed over to you to kill."

Li Jing was stunned.

"Why? And also...... The sword qi you emitted just now, the sword light you pulled out, the extraordinary strength of your body......"

"Yes, these are gifts from killing Nightmare Beasts. A transcendent power called Source Power. ”

Liu Lingxue smiled and explained: "On the second day after I came here, I was lucky enough to find two nightmare beasts fighting each other or trying to devour each other's death. ”

"After killing them, I gained the source power, and not only did I heal my injuries at once, but even the unscientific sword qi and sword light that only appeared in the novel seemed to be able to manifest under my fantasy and have powerful lethality."

"I don't know how many players in this city have the same source power as I do, and I know that I can't kill the King of Nightmare Beasts alone, but I don't want to fight alongside someone I don't trust."

"I deliberately left this nightmare beast without killing it because I admired you and was willing to believe in you."

Her beautiful and heroic eyes were burning at Li Jing at the moment, full of sincere invitations.

"Kill this nightmare beast and become my companion, Li Jing."
