"Damn it, don't use Teacher Yang's voice! According to you, Teacher Yang... Teacher Yang died at the age of 22. No matter how much she looks like an ordinary person now, she's nothing but a ghost!"
Lin Jiade ran toward the immobile monster, which had transformed into Yang Xuemeng's appearance and was looking at him calmly, as if it had already accepted its fate of death.
"Don't think about it!"
A ball of fire suddenly shot out from the side. Lin Jiade stopped, turned around, and braced his hand on the sword to block the punch that was about to be thrown. He knew that the ball of fire was Little Melon, but he was surprised by the opponent's current weakness and... the limp arm hanging down.
While Lingard confronted the monster, Ragnar's offspring were also engaged in a pathetic slaughter downstairs, with the sister who disowned her brother and the brothers who had given up on their sister fighting a battle of strength and fire.
"Traitor, traitor! You betrayed your family, your father, your people. How can you be at peace with yourself when you enjoy the fruits of your betrayal?!"
Every punch Xiao Xianggua threw was accompanied by his roar, but anger was not his strength, but merely an emotional outburst, like dying cicadas in summer uttering cries that were incomprehensible to them.
Jasmine had no particular feelings, only that it was noisy. The joys and sorrows of dragons are not shared, but Little Melon's shouting annoyed Jasmine, and her dislike was about the same as that of someone upstairs singing loudly into a microphone.
With the dolphin assisting, Jasmine noticed that he wasn't as strong as his brother, Little Melon; he was just a spellcasting tool to help Little Melon.
She retreated by deflecting the punch thrown by Little Melon. The square paper barrier deflected the flame-shaped swords formed by the dolphin. Sparks fell, the paper scattered, and red and orange colors created a beautiful but fleeting scene like fireworks.
Jasmine's tail is longer than in her first stage, which was the stage of liberation from human form to dragon form, and also the stage she demonstrated to Lin Jiade. The change in the length of her tail is subtly hidden in the ever-advancing dragon transformation stages, and each stage is longer than the previous one.
So, when Jasmine turned to the side, at what the dolphin thought was a safe distance, her pale tail taut and lashed out like a whip.
To enhance Little Melon's power, the dolphin only left symbolic protective measures on itself. Faced with Jasmine's sudden attack, he knew that his shield would be shattered by Jasmine's tail, which would then continue forward and smash into his head, leaving him bleeding profusely.
At this moment, Little Melon stood in front of his brothers, blocking Jasmine's attack. Two screams of pain rang out, and Little Melon and Jasmine clutched their wrists, showing expressions of pain.
Jasmine looked at her wrist, then at Little Melon, and said, "Lin Jiade told me that when he fought you, his shield didn't break, but his cheek was injured; now, my attack broke your arm, but the same injury has appeared on me..."
"I see. So you have the ability to inflict the same injuries on the other party as you."
“So my father sent me to kill Lin Jiade,” Little Melon said. “At worst, I can still trade one for one.”
Jasmine felt a pang of sadness: "Why didn't you consider betraying him to prolong your own life?"
“That’s the difference between you and me, sister… if you acknowledge us,” said Little Melon. “You only care about your own little life, while we are the first cry of a great plan in the world.”
We are born with only single-digit lifespans—the price of accelerated life. And now, I have only three days left to live. Rather than linger on, I'd rather let my life burn brightly, to die in glory!
I know this, but I have never regretted it, nor have I ever considered betraying him. My father's plan deeply moved me, and I decided to carry it out of my own will. My life will become the foundation for countless others like me!
LNG won, so there will be an extra chapter.
Chapter Eighty-Five: Lies (Part Twelve)
The little melon has the gleam of a fanatic. If one walks the right path, faith can write a legend, but on the wrong path, fanaticism will bring a tragedy that makes people frown.
Jasmine doesn't care about Ragnar or his plans, but she's extremely sensitive to how those plans will affect her life. As Little Melon said, she just wants to live her own life. Is that wrong?
"We are the great dragon race, our bodies are supported by pride, our history is written by flames, we are accompanied by power, legend, and wealth, not by the fate of humans to be played with."
Little Melon dragged his injured arm, each punch like a heavy hammer blow, sending sparks flying with every grazed Jasmine's shield. At the same time, his roar shifted from questioning Jasmine's stance to expressing humiliation at the injustices suffered by his people.
"Have humans truly accepted you?!" he asked.
“Never!” Jasmine’s answer became agitated. “Once I am a dragon, no matter how cooperative I appear, they will always treat me as a dragon to be used and guarded against!”
"Is this reality reasonable?!"
"It exists, but it is not reasonable. Humanity is supreme, and the extraordinary among humans are even more supreme. This is the core ideology of this ancient empire disguised in modern clothing!"
"Then why can you still tolerate it? Why don't you join us?!"
"Because I understand the Empire, because I understand myself, because I don't understand you, I don't think my joining can change this situation, nor do I think you can change anything."
Jasmine said coldly, "Speaking of which, your father Ragnar is the one who has the deepest collusion with humans. He uses the power he gained by flattering humans to systematically suppress the red dragons, just like how some of the descendants of the plantation slaves defected to the plantation owners to suppress the descendants of other slaves."
You actually believe in the destiny that these ambitious people proclaim to you… Oh yes, considering your age, you certainly would, because I once believed I could overthrow the unjust rule of the empire, but as I grew up, I stopped believing in it.”
The pain and the conversation made their exchange somewhat comical. After Little Melon's punches lost their usual speed, it gave Jasmine the opportunity to prepare her lightning spell. The same spell, when cast by Jasmine at the fourth stage of Dragon Transformation, had twice the power and halved the casting time of the first stage of Dragon Transformation.
So, suddenly, Jasmine unleashed her lightning strike at the dolphin—the little melon's visible weakness. The lightning shot out from between Jasmine's fingers, first like thick tree roots, then like splitting branches, which in turn split into even more branches, covering the area around the dolphin.
The dolphin looked helplessly at the lightning engulfing him, and sure enough, Little Melon took the fall for him again. Seeing Little Melon's hair standing on end from the shock, the dolphin retaliated by firing its shaped weapons at Jasmine, but Jasmine blocked them.
It must be admitted that this naturally grown older sister is far more powerful than her two brothers who were artificially matured for experimental purposes. It is because of this that the dolphins feel sad, because their most respected father's favorite child is so rebellious, wasting their father's love and his plan to change the White Dragon's fate in the empire.
"Despicable, truly despicable!"
Little Melon wiped his lips, and Dolphin tugged at his sleeve. Without turning around, Little Melon asked, "Are you alright?"
“I’m fine…” the dolphin said hesitantly. “You don’t need to worry about me, just go ahead and do it.”
“That’s good, Dolphin. You can live for another six weeks, while I only have three days left. So, logically and emotionally, you have to live on and outlive me.”
Go eat delicious food, play fun games, wear cool clothes, sleep with beautiful women, kill if you want, destroy if you want... In short, after completing the mission, you must, along with me, enjoy a wonderful time in this society.
"Six weeks isn't enough," the dolphin said with a wry smile.
"Then do your best."
The dolphin nestled against Little Melon's back and whispered in his ear, "Fighting with my sister... is just a waste of time here. We should just move to Lin Jiade, kill him, and then have Iphigenia lead us away."
Both ignored the miniature snowman struggling with the ice cave in the distance. The ice cave had consumed a lot of energy, and she dared not let her energy run out, lest she face a nightmarish consequence. The miniature snowman, apart from calling for help, did not have many powerful spells.
Jasmine, of course, didn't wait for Little Melon and the dolphin to put on a show of being good buddies. The spells in her hands flowed like a reward, and the more she used her power, the clearer and more familiar the knowledge that didn't belong to the red dragon became in Jasmine's mind. It was as if she had mastered it when she was just learning to speak.
However, her strange sense of pride and stance made her unwilling to put this new knowledge into practice. What if... what if it was the White Dragon's magic, and she used it to kill her own blood-related brother? This would probably become a demon in her heart in the future.
Jasmine, you are just jasmine. Life has stripped you bare, yet it has given you this name, which embodies happiness born from suffering.
She said to herself: Not the Red Dragon, not the White Dragon, just... Jasmine, striving for higher education, hoping that after the college entrance examination, Lin Jiade's fixed deposit would fill her up with Jasmine, at an age where ideals, sex and restlessness intertwine.
So Jasmine continued to use Thunder Magic, but her eyes were now resolute. Unfortunately, Little Melon and the Dolphin were tired of fighting Jasmine. They couldn't kill her, and it was difficult to win. It would be better for them to attack Lin Jiade from both sides and obtain the Warring States period that their father longed for most.
So, the little melon defended against Jasmine's attack, while the dolphin manipulated the flames to heat up their feet, heat up, heat up... until the ground beneath their feet collapsed along with the flames, and the resulting explosion propelled them into the sky.
The dragons' robust physiological structure allowed them to safely absorb the impact of the explosion; the dolphins had already pre-programmed the direction of the explosion towards a location where Lin Jiade's energy would react.
Jasmine hadn't expected such a twist. She turned around, pushed herself away with her paws, and the miniature snowman and ice cave, abandoned by their companions, looked at each other. In this secondary battlefield, the outcome of their battle did not affect the overall situation, but for the combatants, the battle was meaningful.
“The Squat Man is my lover,” said the miniature snowman. “She looks a bit like a boy, and I’ve been mistaken for a lesbian, but she’s a good girl… Now she’s lying there as a cold corpse, and I’m going to kill you to pay for her death!”
WE vs LNG, vote! Will there be an extra chapter today? Let's see the results.
Chapter Eighty-Six: Lies (Thirteen)
Even so, the miniature snowmen lacked sufficient power beyond summoning people, and the icy cave, wary of such things, dared not use magic lightly.
The greatest threat to the miniature snowman comes from above. When Hehuan's lonely gunshot rings out, the miniature snowman either hides, seeks cover, or transforms into an orange cat and pounces into the shadows. When it pounces on the top of the ice cave, it becomes a cheetah.
Ice Cave dodged to the side, getting too close to the miniature snowman. Hehuan, fearing she might accidentally hurt it, offered no support, but she used another method to help Ice Cave: she had her controlled male superhumans deprive the miniature snowman of its sight.
Ice Cave didn't know how Hehuan managed to snatch the male superhuman from Iphigenia. Earlier, Jasmine and Little Melon had fought fiercely, leaving the scene in a mess. She thought the male superhuman had met with misfortune.
Unexpectedly, several minutes after the disconnection, he reconnected and launched a fierce attack on his former allies.
The miniature snowman immediately reverted to its fierce leopard form the moment it was blinded, transforming into a cute and fierce orange cat. Its escape was somewhat disheveled, but its accidental dodge of the Ice Cave's ultimate attack and the subsequent barrage of bullets from the Hehuan was quite impressive.
After the Ice Cave's ultimate attack failed, they dared not use any more spells. The blinded miniature snowmen, unable to fight blindly, stopped short of engaging in combat and moved towards their teammates.
Ice Cave wanted to call Hehuan down to help Lin Jiade, but she wasn't familiar with Hehuan. The memories of Mu Xiu being manipulated by his girlfriend made her a little afraid of girls. She stayed at Lin Jiade's house for ten days, but didn't get to know any of them.
At this moment, her social anxiety kicked in. She wanted to shout, but shyness and embarrassment stopped her from speaking: Hehuan and Lin Jiade were very familiar with each other. What if they had their own way of contacting each other? What if they had already tacitly carried out their tactics? Wouldn't she be making a fool of herself by calling Hehuan?
If Jasmine were there, she might have slapped her again, but since no one was there to whip her, Ice Cave hesitated for a few seconds before going off to find Lin Jiade on her own.
Whether she was awake or asleep, whether in battle or in daily life, she felt most at ease by his side.
Halfway there, she heard Little Melon's angry roar, which startled her so much that she trembled and reflexively looked down at her skirt—once, twice, but not three times. She no longer wanted to put on a show of a idyllic life in front of Lin Jiade.
The battle of the White Dragon's offspring was not something she could participate in. Ice Cave planned to be a buffing tool, or to use her wand to pull Lin Jiade out of the lane when he was at a disadvantage. Before that, she stumbled in the green belt and tripped over the leg of the kapok tree lying inside.
"Send her back, by air!"
Jasmine, now in her dragon form, arrived late and immediately gave orders to Ice Cave. Ice Cave was annoyed by her bossy attitude, but Jasmine was Lin Jiade's first girlfriend, and Ice Cave couldn't beat her, so Ice Cave hung the cotton on its wand and flew towards Lin Jiade's apartment building.
With her worries relieved, Jasmine saw that Lin Jiade and Xiao Xianggua had already started fighting. She shouted a reminder, but it was too late. Lin Jiade had slashed a deep wound into Xiao Xianggua's remaining arm, and the scene of two cries of pain and blood gushing from the wounds was repeated.
The dolphin looked at Yang Xuemeng, who was slowly getting up behind it, and asked, "How are you feeling?"
"I'm fine, how about you guys?"
With tears welling in his eyes, the dolphin shook his head and remained silent. Little Melon said he could live for three more days, but seeing the current situation, he planned to use his abilities to take Lin Jiade down with him tonight.
“I can open the door and take you back to the Holy Land, but this is the last door I can open,” Iphigenia said.
“I’ll be with him. I’m his brother. I’ll witness it all the way to the end,” the dolphin said.
In front of them, Little Melon stood there hunched over, one arm broken and the other with a deep cut, both arms useless. Opposite him, Lin Jiade and Jasmine each still had one arm in good condition.
Jasmine performed emergency treatment on Lin Jiade's wound, wrapping his arm with a square piece of paper. This was only to stop the bleeding and did not promote any healing.
“Jasmine, the woman sitting over there is Teacher Yang, or rather, the monster who turned Teacher Yang into a vengeful spirit,” Lin Jiade whispered.
Jasmine paused for a moment, then replied, "So..."
"I want to free her, so that the monster won't harm people with her face."
“I understand, I will do everything in my power to fulfill your wish,” Jasmine said. “Little Melon has the ability to trade injuries for injuries, and he is determined to kill you.”
“But he doesn’t know I have a divine oracle. Nevertheless… Jasmine, run, run out of my five-hundred-meter range.”
Lin Jiade is not afraid of Little Melon because he has the Oracle - Substitute Death. As long as Jasmine runs out of the Oracle's safe zone, the Oracle will activate and kill one of the three enemies in front of him. For him, there is only the difference between not losing, making a small profit, and making a huge profit.
Jasmine turned her head slightly. She knew she looked as ugly as a Komodo dragon, so she didn't say a word and ran away silently.
Lin Jiade estimated Jasmine's movement speed. Five seconds after she left, while the enemy still thought she was flanking her, he rushed straight towards Little Melon.
Little Melon was puzzled. Lin Jiade should have already guessed his abilities, so why did he rush up without thinking? But behind him were dolphins and the injured Iphigenia. If he avoided Lin Jiade's attack at this moment, Lin Jiade would kill them all.
At that moment, power surged within Little Melon's body, and he heard the dolphin say behind him, "Go, Little Melon, I won't stop you, go and pursue the death you desire!"
At this moment, for Little Melon, nothing was more comforting than hearing words that acknowledged him. So he responded to Lin Jiade's anger with anger, and to Lin Jiade's flames with flames. In his eyes, Lin Jiade's sword was advancing and bringing death, while he activated his ability, ready to bring death to Lin Jiade as well.
Little Melon's fist pierced through Lin Jiade's shield, and the greatly weakened fist struck Lin Jiade's shoulder, making a sound of bones cracking. Lin Jiade's movements became technically distorted, and the sword that was originally intended to pierce Little Melon's heart actually pierced the opponent's right lung. However, this was still a fatal wound.
As Little Melon's ability activated, and the fatal wound to his right lung was about to be replicated on Lin Jiade, the amulet Lin Jiade wore lit up. Death was imminent, but it was transferred to Little Melon. The relieved expression on Little Melon's face was still there, but he could no longer see anything.
Lin Jiade drew his sword, took out his phone, and called Jasmine back. Dolphin's expression was initially one of relief, then sorrow, and now, upon seeing Lin Jiade, she exclaimed in shock, "Why are you still alive?!"
Chapter Eighty-Seven: Lying (Part Fourteen)
“I have a resurrection armor,” Lin Jiade replied.
Flames appeared around the dolphin, and scattered weapons flew toward Lin Jiade. A door appeared behind Iphigenia. Seeing that the other party intended to escape, Lin Jiade suddenly accelerated, using his shield to withstand the dolphin's attack, determined to keep the other party here.
"Forgive me..." the dolphin murmured.
