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."

lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?

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)
