Zhuang Wugou's combat program had reached its limit, and he had already detected Ning Yu's presence behind him with razor-sharp precision.
His armored suit was faster than his thoughts and senses. In the instant he became aware, the suit had already moved his limbs to strike backward.
As he turned his head, there was Ning Yu, right behind him, with her light saber already touching her body in a split second.
What was happening?!
Suddenly, he found his thoughts grinding to a halt, moving at a snail's pace. His ability to think in words seemed to take a century just to form a single character.
In Ning Yu's vision, the world turned monochrome, much like walking through a fog, the moment Zhuang Wugou's light saber made contact with her body.
Everything around her moved incredibly slowly, or rather, it was almost frozen in time.
The light saber in her hand, though about to touch her skin, felt like it would take an eternity to move just 0.00001 millimeters.
This was the effect of triggering **Moonlit Moment** after exiting **Fog Walk**.
Now, time had frozen around her, and only Ning Yu could move freely.
She swung her Blood Kite, meticulously cutting through Zhuang Wugou's entire armored suit in the brief two seconds of Moonlit Moment.
Since **Thousand Moment Slash** was ineffective against non-biological entities, she decided to go for a manual, youth edition—**Hundred Moment Slash**.
Zhuang Wugou's thoughts finally recovered from the stasis.
"Be careful, Xiao Yu!!"
Shen Yiyue's alarmed cry came late, and as soon as she shouted, she covered her mouth.
In her vision, Ning Yu seemed to skip frames, leaping from behind Zhuang Wugou's counterattack to the side.
Ning Yu, like a samurai who had just completed a draw slash, sheathed her Blood Kite.
It was only then that Zhuang Wugou's turn and slash officially began to swing.
But as he swung, his armored suit and body started to disintegrate, falling to the ground in pieces.
The hilt of his light saber broke into several pieces, and the energy-depleted saber vanished into thin air.
Zhuang Wugou's slash stopped halfway, and he shattered into a heap of scrap metal, leaving only his head rolling on the ground.
"How... is this possible..."
He could still speak, which was enough to prove that he was no longer biological.
His internal transistors scattered on the ground, with blue liquid resembling blood seeping out, but not much, and it quickly evaporated into mist, unable to withstand normal temperatures.
Seeing that he was completely defeated, Ning Yu didn't waste a single second, because every second lost was 100 points!
The Sloth, which had just been repaired by the blue light shield, had barely regained its spirit, ready to control the Diligence Hands to team up with Zhuang Wugou to take down Ning Yu.
But not only did Zhuang Wugou mysteriously collapse, but Ning Yu also suddenly disappeared from the real world.
What was happening?!
The Diligence Hands around it wildly flailed, but they couldn't resist Ning Yu's **Fog Walk**.
Ning Yu appeared behind it from the gray mist, and her Blood Kite mercilessly delivered a righteous backstab.
Although Ning Yu couldn't see the weakness of the mid-tier mutant zombie, it didn't matter anymore.
**Thousand Moment Slash**!
Dense flashes of blade light lit up inside Sloth's body, making it look like a little glowing figure.
Suddenly, countless crimson butterflies fluttered around it, emerging from the blade light.
The more blood butterflies there were, the more its body disintegrated, until Sloth's entire body vanished, leaving only its head.
It was like a silent magic trick, and this magic trick ended in a spectacular finale.
All the blood butterflies exploded into a rain of blood the moment Ning Yu re-gripped her Blood Kite.
This time, Ning Yu raised her Blood Kite to meet the blood rain, and they all flowed into the blade, turning into sweet experience points.
Ning Yu held up her Blood Kite, and her eyes also turned bright red and dazzling.
Unfortunately, all the battles were over.
**Ding! You have killed the mid-tier mutant zombie Sloth, earning 2000 points.**
**Blood Kite upgrade experience +1000**
**Ding! Series mission completed: Close Yet Far**
**Objective: Kill Sloth before Wu Di dies (1/1)**
**Rewards issued: Random attribute points *5, 20000 points**
**Hidden reward issued: Mid-tier skill upgrade book *1**
**You have gained: Stamina *2, Charm *2, Spirit *1**
Only now did this lengthy mission finally come to an end, and the 20000 points slightly eased Ning Yu's frustration over losing 2 Charm points.
She quickly turned off the **Moonlit Serenity** mode and heard the system's deduction notification.
**Exited Moonlit Serenity mode, you lost 14200 points.**
**Removed: Moon Princess Blessing *Stage I**
**Removed: Fog Walk**
Hearing the deduction of 14200 points, Ning Yu suddenly felt a pang of regret again. Did it feel like she was starting to get frustrated again?
The mission named Close Yet Far came to a close, and Ning Yu looked up to see Ji Mengyao helping Wu Di walking towards her in the distance.
Now, the distance between the two of them truly lived up to the name "Close Yet Far," no, they were practically glued together.
She couldn't help but reveal a gratified smile.
Ning Yu walked towards the group, and Shen Yiyue had already rushed to Ning Yu at a faster pace, hugging her tightly and burying her face in Ning Yu's silver-white hair:
"Sob... sob... Xiao Yu, I thought you... you scared me to death..."
"Okay... okay... good... I'm fine, don't cry..."
Ning Yu looked at Shen Yiyue, who was crying her eyes out, gently patting her back, comforting her like a child.
The mechanical head of Zhuang Wugou, still on the ground, coldly watched all this, while Ji Mengyao had already settled Wu Di and stepped forward to confront him.
"Why... why did you do this?"
She clenched her fists angrily, making it seem like she was about to punch Zhuang Wugou, unfortunately, he was only left with a head.
"Were all the ideals, the beliefs you spoke of, all lies?!"
"Why did you deceive us?!!"
She shouted furiously at Zhuang Wugou, as if something she believed in had crumbled.
Ning Yu then remembered the first time she met Ji Mengyao, sitting in her pickup truck, when she had smiled reassuringly and said to her:
"I just feel that, everyone coming together, fighting and striving together for survival, this feeling is great."
Full of confidence in the Ark.
And now, everything that had happened shattered that dream.
Facing the accusations from his former companions, Zhuang Wugou's cold eyes showed no emotion.
"All this is for the continuation of humanity."
"In this process, there will inevitably be necessary sacrifices."
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
