Chapter 852: I Said Don't Come Over!

Nightfall City.

Inside a dim room.

It had already been quite a long while.

Naked Zuo Zuo hugged her big pillow, staring warily at a certain Lin-surnamed creature who had been sitting on the small wooden chair across from the bed for half an hour, legs crossed.

And the reason he was only described as "legs crossed."

Was naturally because currently there were only those two legs there, everything above the waist was thrust into that slit he had pried open using a massive amount of Leviathan flesh, so it looked like a ghost with only a lower body.

And even if there were only two legs left.

From earlier until now, they hadn't stayed still for a moment.

It was one thing for the left foot to scratch the right foot idly, but frequently using that middle leg of his to nod at you was infuriating. Of course, nodding was one thing, but couldn't he not nod up and down, left and right, forward and back every single time? She had truly been holding back with every ounce of her strength not to erupt!

(ー`´ー) Fists clenched tight.

Of course.

If it were only that much, it wouldn't matter.

But there was something even more outrageous.

Like right now.

Zuo Zuo squinted, watching a tentacle slowly wriggling down from the rift where his upper body was located, watching it quietly creep onto the bed, then sneakily try to burrow into her blankets, intending to do some nasty things to her.

And tentacles like this that tried to sneak into her blankets to do bad things, she had already discovered many of them, each one slippery and up to no good, obviously not a proper tentacle at a single glance.

But the method to deal with these tentacles was also very simple.

She pulled a gleaming kitchen knife from under her pillow.

Raised it and stared.

Waited for it to slowly wriggle over.

Then...

Stab-!!

【Ding! Your HP -10!】

That's why people say, if you chop a snake into two halves in one go, the severed part will still flop around wildly, just like a salted fish on a cutting board bouncing alive, and facts also proved that chopping off in one strike the tentacle Stupid Brain tried to use to play with her produced the exact same effect.

Wushen held the knife, staring at that lively, halved tentacle.

As if it were some kind of law.

It seemed that long things, whether tentacles or venomous snakes, or crawling creatures like earthworms, would all continue flopping wildly for a while after being cut in two before finally settling down.

So did that mean, as long as it was this kind of long thing, it would have this characteristic?

Thinking this.

Her gaze turned dangerous and probing toward a certain spot on the certain Lin-surnamed creature sitting there.

She glanced at the knife gripped in her small hand.

Fell into contemplation.

【Ding! Your Left Hand's "Unnecessary Curiosity" is continuously increasing!】

But although tremendous curiosity had indeed arisen, Zuo Zuo hadn't forgotten the important task Lynn had given her before he entered that rift, which was that once he sent her a signal, she would immediately drag him out from there, to prevent the ritual's instability from causing the rift to close early and leave him separated from his body.

She checked the time.

It seemed about time.

And almost in the very next moment, Lynn, who sat there with only his lower half remaining, suddenly moved, then immediately and urgently rocked the chair legs, that was precisely the signal he sent for her to hurry and pull him back.

And at the same time, Zuo Zuo also immediately saw that the rift he had thrust into was already beginning to show signs of contracting.

Without any hesitation.

Zuo Zuo immediately grabbed that long limb connecting the two of them due to Mimicry, and forcefully yanked him outward.

Lynn's urgent voice came from inside.

Zuo Zuo yelled as she yanked him outward with all her might, saying: "You push outward too! Idiot!!"

Splash-

Finally.

Accompanied by a sound like a torrent rushing forth, Lynn's upper body was finally forcefully pulled back from that slit, and the rift, along with a faint crackle of electricity, quickly contracted into an invisible black line, then swiftly vanished.

Lynn, carrying Yin Yi who was tightly wrapped by tentacles, sat on the ground drenched in sweat, saying:

"That was close, wasted a bit too much time, but I finally made it back."

And at the same time, the System's notification sounded in his ears.

【Ding! Dimensional Summoning has ended: This summoning consumed a total of: Leviathan Flesh Tissue x91 kg, a portion of Ghost Energy provided by the summoner】

【Obtained offerings: female ghost x1, Evil Spirit Conglomerate x1, one-yuan coin x1, special forces combat uniforms and handguns and various sundries x51 sets, combustible sword x1】

Looking at the System's tally for him, Lynn's heart was truly bleeding pure blood.

That's right.

The current him was already far stronger than when he was last summoned, especially after The Colossus's Heart was activated and his Flesh Calamity ability increased by a large margin, wanting to summon him to other worlds again was already far from as simple as before.

And wanting to supplement materials through hell to complete the ritual would make the materials and costs paid increase by geometric multiples.

Just like this time.

He had paid a full 91 kilograms of Leviathan flesh before he completed the summoning cost, but this could only let him poke part of his head through, not truly let his true form descend.

And from this point, one could also see, those powerful Demons wanting to open summoning gates to other hells by increasing their energy supply from this side of hell, was truly how difficult and unrealistic, when even a creature like him who hadn't reached the Transcendent level needed to use Root-level flesh, let alone those even more powerful existences.

Of course, ordinary creatures wouldn't be as wealthy as him either.

"How was it?!"

Zuo Zuo immediately crawled to the foot of the bed, staring at the returned Lynn, saying:

"What's the situation over there?"

Lynn adjusted his Monocle, his gaze flicked, and a tentacle instantly dragged over the nearly-dead Evil Spirit Conglomerate he had bound together, then flung it into the corner of the room.

"Nothing much, ran into another Evil Ghost I couldn't deal with, helped them take it down and brought it back, but it looks like it's connected to the Flesh and Blood Cult, I'll hand it over to the Nightfall City Guard Brigade later, let them interrogate it thoroughly."

That Evil Spirit Conglomerate curled into a ball in terror and urgency.

His fragmented eyeballs tremblingly scanned the room, his gaze shifting fearfully away from Lynn, then landing on the face of the loli sitting on the bed hugging a big pillow and seemingly not wearing clothes, looking dazed and confused.

In an instant, a flash of desperate ferocity burst through his eyes.

Clearly.

Malice and torment had already caused him to lose his mind.

That Demon he couldn't beat, but this kind of harmless little loli, he could still give her a beating!

He instantly let out a sharp shriek, and from his shattered face, one ghostly face after another surfaced once more in an instant, suddenly like an evil ghost pouncing on its prey, he lunged savagely toward Zuo Zuo sitting on the bed.

Zuo Zuo said dazedly: "Huh? Don't come over, I'm not as easy to bully as you think!"

But obviously, it was of no use whatsoever.

Splash-

The sound of a massive mouth opening.

Half a second later.

Zuo Zuo closed her eyes, spat out a bloodied ring to the side, and burped in satisfaction.

"Honestly, I already said don't come over, but you just had to stuff me full, how annoying."

Lynn: "......"
