Chapter 25 Escape

"Holy crap, what kind of monster can chase a car traveling at 180 km/h?!"

Tang Hulu exclaimed in surprise.

Was this thing really not being used unnecessarily in the stadium just now?

“His strength is gradually recovering,” Murayama said bitterly. “I didn’t expect him to come out so quickly. It must be because you killed the headless demon that he had to leave and come here.”

Ji Yi asked, "Was he being restrained the whole time? Was it Misaki's vengeful spirit?"

Murayama remarked, "You're very clever. That's right. It was precisely because Maeda Misaki fought against the Hundred-Eyed Demon King for so long that this city didn't completely become a den of ghost stories."

"Hey! He's almost catching up! And you two are still chatting about the plot! Brother Ji, use your invincible brain to think of a solution!"

"Let's think of a way, but thinking of a way takes time."

Ji Yi bit her thumb; in this situation, there was no other choice.

"At this speed, can the Hundred-Eyed Demon King catch up?"

Zhuge calmly looked out the rear window of the car: "For now, we can still maintain our distance, but it's unclear whether the Hundred-Eyed Demon King has any power he hasn't used yet."

Miss Cat glanced at the fuel gauge: "Even if we can't catch up right now, we'll be there soon. This old car can only go on for another half hour at most."

Zhuge Dengpao suggested, "Don't you have a Limit-Unlocking Charm? Right now, your level is the highest here, and your Limit-Unlocking combat power is also the strongest. Are you confident in dealing with him, even if it's just to inflict some damage?"

Miss Cat shook her head: "Judging from the performance of the Hundred-Eyed Demon King, I am no match for him. I can only stall him, not hurt him. In five minutes, I will surely die."

Ji Yi gritted her teeth: "Miss Cat, do you believe me?"

squeak--

Another bend, and the car glides out in a graceful curve.

This time, Tang Hulu had learned his lesson and suddenly curled up to lower his center of gravity.

Then he kissed Zhuge Liang on the crotch.

Zhuge: "."

The vehicle accelerated again and continued its journey.

“I believe you.” Miss Cat’s expression remained unchanged. “But first, take your head off my lap; it’s interfering with my driving.”

"it is good."

Ji Yi stood up and got straight to the point: "Give me the Limit-Release Talisman, and I'll deal with the Hundred-Eyed Ghost King."

These words shocked the two people in the back row.

What use is a level 7 player like you to use a Removal Charm?
In the game, a difference of one or two levels is a huge gap. This is not only a difference in numerical values, but also a difference in dungeon experience.

Schrödinger's cat is level 13, so from any perspective, the unlocking charm is more suitable for her to use.

Tang Hulu asked in surprise, "Brother Ji, you don't mean to steal someone's equipment before you die, do you?"

That's a perfect-grade item; even if it's a one-time use item, its value is equivalent to a high-quality, excellent-grade piece of equipment.

"can."

Before Ji Yi could respond to the questions, Miss Cat had already spoken up.

"No?" Tang Hulu was even more shocked. "Sister Xue, you actually agreed? Isn't this blatantly ripping you off with your props?!"

"If you can't offer any constructive suggestions, then shut up."

Ji Yi said coldly.

"The situation is urgent; use any available method."

Miss Cat spoke in a flat tone, as if she didn't care at all about a perfect-grade item.

As we were speaking...

The roar behind us grew closer and closer.

You can hear the monster running, the sound of each step shattering the ground, and occasionally a big jump followed by a loud crash to the ground.

It's getting closer again!

Miss Cat gripped the steering wheel with one hand, while her other hand had already retrieved the [Unlock Charm].

"Thank you." Ji Yi accepted it. "I won't take it for nothing. I'll return a piece of equipment or an item to you later."

"it is good."

Miss Cat didn't say much.

In fact, Ji Yi wasn't sure if he could deal with the Hundred-Eyed Demon King based on his stats after unlocking the limits. After all, he was a new player, and this was only his second time entering the dungeon. He had almost no confidence in his analysis of the combat power.

The only thing we know is that he can run at speeds up to 100 meters per second, but he can't maintain that speed.

If the speed is reduced by half, it should be able to chase a car running at full speed for a long distance, just like the Hundred-Eyed Demon King.

Based on this analysis, his only advantage might be the explosive power derived from his speed. Compared to the absolute strength and other abilities of the Hundred-Eyed Demon King, it's generally not enough. "But with the [Black Bull Energy Drink], another perfect-grade consumable, he should at least have the strength to put up a fight, right?"

Ji Yi thought to herself.

at this time.

The situation changed again.

"Meow!!!"

As a sharp, piercing meow rang out, almost everyone covered their ears.

It happened to be another bend, and Xie Jiayi couldn't take her hands off the steering wheel; blood was already seeping from both ears.

"It's the 'Black Cat'!"

After the cat's meowing stopped, Ji Yi and the two people in the back row turned their heads to look.

A dark shadow flashed by, tearing the light curtain under the streetlight in two, and collided with the Hundred-Eyed Demon King.

Upon seeing this, Murayama's deep, dry voice trembled with excitement:

"It's a near-perfectly corrupted Xuanmao! We still have a chance, quickly drive away and create some distance! The Hundred-Eyed Demon King can't hold out against us for too long, he has to go back to deal with Misaki. As long as we can get through this, we'll be fine for a while!"

Blood was flowing from both of Xie Jiayi's ears.

She felt her eardrums thumping, accompanied by ringing, dizziness, and nausea.

She didn't hear what Murayama said.

At this moment, besides barely managing to control the steering wheel, something else was on my mind:

The black cat came to save her again and again.

boom!
Then another roar came from behind.

A body, mangled like a rag, sped past the car and crashed onto the road.

"Holy crap! Murayama, you little Japanese devil, you're lying again! That black cat was gone in a second, wasn't it?!"

Tang Hulu really wanted to kick Cunshan's head like a ball.

Murayama was also furious: "What do you know? The real show is about to begin. The Black Cat's physical body is completely shattered, and it is about to completely fall into corruption. But we won't have a chance to witness it. We need to retreat quickly and avoid being caught in the crossfire."

The words of their conversation became a buzzing sound in Xie Jiayi's ears.

The car sped by, and the black cat's corpse lay by the roadside, a blurry black line flashing in Xie Jiayi's peripheral vision.

Her expression remained calm, but her eyes held a dark depth.

"Miss Cat, Miss Cat?"

Hearing gradually recovered.

The terrifying tremors were left far behind.

Ji Yi's heart settled down.

If he had actually rushed out, he probably wouldn't have fared much better than Xuanmao.

Notice Miss Cat's unusual behavior.

"Miss Cat, your eyes have lost their shine, are you alright?"

As Ji Yi spoke, she found a pack of tissues in the car, took it out, and used it to wipe the blood seeping from Miss Cat's ear.

"Drive slower. If you damage your eardrum, your balance will be affected. Driving this fast could easily lead to a fatal accident. I don't mean to belittle you, Miss Cat. Your driving skills are simply top-notch."

I was afraid she'd get angry again and make a 180-degree turn without slowing down.

"What's the next step?"

Miss Cat asked, looking down at the village and mountains at her feet.

"Hide for now and find a way to break the blockade. You should all have a feeling, right? Why is there no one in this city?"

"This is the dark side of Kuchiba City, the place where ghost stories originate. The original owners of your bodies, filled with guilt and remorse, were tainted by evil spirits, which is why they came to this place."

"Only when your souls are redeemed will you be able to leave this place."
