Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 997: Collision with Hard Rock

Chapter 997: Collision with Hard Rock

No one could have expected that there would be someone within their own ranks who would suddenly turn against them.

As Lin Sanjiu rushed out of the crowd, no one understood what she was doing, and no one realized they should stop her. The posthumans in the first layer of encirclement quickly moved apart to follow orders, and the robed man was pushed to the left by several people, leaving behind the dozens of photos still pinned in the air. As Lin Sanjiu pa.s.sed beneath the photos, she abruptly halted, looked up, and took a glance at the photos.

“What are you doing, Blue Face!” the pet.i.te woman behind her shouted, “Get back in position!”

Ignoring her, Lin Sanjiu raised her hand towards the air, and several round black shadows were thrown into the air, colliding with the stack of photos. Before the black shadows could land, she accelerated once again, shouldered her way through two posthumans in front of her, and reached out to grab the robed man. At this moment, the pet.i.te woman in charge finally realized that something was amiss and loudly commanded, “Frog, Gwendolyn, grab her! The rest, continue the attack!”

The two posthumans closest to Lin Sanjiu stepped forward. They were undoubtedly “Frog” and “Gwendolyn,” both members of the second row and formidable fighters. Now that their target had s.h.i.+fted to Lin Sanjiu, the powerful attacks they had prepared were unleashed upon her—

However, Lin Sanjiu didn’t hesitate for a moment and continued to charge towards the robed man without stopping.

The pages of [How to Render] fluttered in the wind she created, and almost simultaneously, the attacks from the two posthumans arrived. Amidst the chaotic moment, she couldn’t determine the exact nature of their abilities, but she vaguely sensed that one of the abilities was like a giant hand reaching out to grab her, while the other was invisible, intangible, and impossible to detect even with “Pure Touch.” Accompanied by a scream, one of the posthumans was suddenly lifted high into the air by the “giant hand,” while at the same time, Lin Sanjiu had just pa.s.sed by the person.

“Got the wrong person—”

Before the person could finish speaking those two words, the effects of the second ability followed immediately.

In an instant, the figure in the air plummeted rapidly towards the floor as if it was being sucked down. Amidst the heavy, shattering sound of impact, the person disregarded the barricades, smas.h.i.+ng through countless layers of flooring, and their bones and flesh splattered and burst into a spray of blood amidst the metal and concrete, leaving scattered spots near the hole.

“Are you blind?” the pet.i.te woman seemed genuinely furious.

The two posthumans’ vision was certainly not impaired, and it wasn’t a matter of making a mistake at a critical moment. In fact, they truly believed that they had released their abilities towards Lin Sanjiu—but unfortunately, due to the distorted light and shadows created by [How to Render], they thought they were attacking Lin Sanjiu’s position, yet the person standing there was not Lin Sanjiu.

She couldn’t help but curl up the corners of her mouth—she was just half a step ahead, and they had missed the best opportunity to stop her. With just a reach of her hand, she could grab hold of the hem of the robed man.

“He moved!”

Just at that moment, a certain posthuman suddenly shouted loudly. Startled, the pet.i.te woman didn’t have time to react, and the abilities that the second-row posthumans had prepared were already unleashed as planned, surging forward like a tidal wave. Her hoa.r.s.e voice repeatedly commanded, “Stop! Stop!” but it was drowned out by the sounds produced by the various abilities, and not many people heard it.

Even though she knew her current priority was to grab the robed man, Lin Sanjiu couldn’t help but glance in Puppeteer’s direction out of concern.

Amidst the storm of flames, light, shadows, metal, and piercing winds, the black silhouette stood upright before the wooden crate, despite being thin and frail. His right hand, which had been hanging limp by his side, seemed to come alive as if awakening from paralysis. It moved with extreme speed, grabbing and tearing at the air in front of him time and time again. Then, like several bombs simultaneously exploding in the center of this narrow corridor, a violent airflow surged and rolled outwards, leaving dense spiderweb-like cracks on the walls in an instant.

Along with the surging airflow, the storm-like onslaught from before was also dispersed.

Few evolutionary abilities could be discerned with the naked eye. However, there was one “light strip” dragging a long trail of light, rolling up and down within the surging airflow around Puppeteer as if it was trapped, neither disappearing nor departing. It seemed that the other invisible ability attacks had encountered the same situation.

“It’s his [Embrace the Rivers]!”

“What about the fixation? Why didn’t his fixation work?”

Amidst the clamor, intermittent cries of surprise reached Lin Sanjiu’s ears.

Though she didn’t know what [Embrace the Rivers] referred to—whether it was an ability or an item—it seemed that Puppeteer would be able to protect himself temporarily. She sighed in relief and looked up into the air.

The rolls of toilet paper she had thrown onto the photos, which had absorbed the effects of the robed man’s ability in [Planar World], had long been blown away by the raging winds. And the dozens of photos disappeared as soon as the absorbed effects were consumed.

The robed man wouldn’t have a second chance.

“Re-fixate him!” the pet.i.te woman’s command suddenly became clear again. Lin Sanjiu didn’t know what method she used, but it managed to overpower the howling winds in the corridor. When she turned around, she immediately realized, “Stop that Blue Face!”

But at that moment, Lin Sanjiu’s hand had already reached for the white robe. At the same time, one of the eight Special Items she brought out from the Lake pocket dimension silently appeared in her other hand.

[Ultra Music Festival]

Even if the world is on the verge of destruction, one must die to the sound of music!

As an ever-continuing, all-encompa.s.sing grand music festival, it will persist regardless of the state of the world. With just an [Ultra Music Festival] card, even if you are walking through a desolate wasteland strewn with debris and ruins, it will turn every day into a music-filled carnival of death.

Effect: While everyone present can hear the music, the ticket holder can select a target individual. The power of the music will tangibly and literally affect both parties—although generally, the effects on the ticket holder are positive.

The ticket holder can make active selections or allow the music festival to play different types of music based on their personality preferences and the situation they are in.

After leaving the Lake pocket dimension, Lin Sanjiu didn’t have a chance to carefully examine her new Special Item. After quickly scanning through it, the only thing she remembered was the [Ultra Music Festival] card, even though she had only read the first two sections of the description.

When the rhythm of heavy and fast drum beats suddenly resounded, all the posthumans couldn’t help but pause for a moment.

All sounds, including the roaring airflow created by Puppeteer, disappeared in the increasingly loud music. The drum beats pounded against their souls and eardrums, and a hoa.r.s.e, powerful female voice nearly roared as she sang:

“I’m burning brighter, I’m setting the world on fire!”

Taking advantage of the momentary daze of the crowd, Lin Sanjiu seized the robed man by his back. In that instant, his white robe suddenly turned bright red and twisted, transforming into flames in the blink of an eye.

The man let out a startled cry within the sudden flames but quickly reacted, struggling out of the burning garment. Several nearby posthumans rushed towards Lin Sanjiu, but no one could approach her in the first instance. She now seemed like a ma.s.sive speaker, releasing waves upon waves of sound waves through her body with the fierce and heavy drum beats and ba.s.s rhythms, physically pus.h.i.+ng away the approaching posthumans.

Taking advantage of the short moment, Lin Sanjiu rushed forward again, almost becoming a blur in the roaring female voice (Speed it up!). She grabbed the back of the man’s head. It was unknown what means he used, but the protective force field on her palm, [Defense Forcefield], immediately flickered incessantly, clearly being eroded. However, under the domination of hard rock, Lin Sanjiu seemed completely unaware and held onto him tightly, rus.h.i.+ng towards the wall at high speed.

“Bash it in!”

With that shout, the man’s head was forcefully smashed into the wall. Under her tremendous strength, he miraculously managed to preserve an intact head. However, his consciousness and life were already ninety percent gone. As she released her grip, he fell to the ground with a thud. In the brief attack of just a few seconds, he didn’t even have time to counterattack.

Lin Sanjiu turned her head, her eyes bloodshot.

“Bohemia, it’s your turn!”
