Just as Lu Gui was fleeing and pondering that the insect he saw wearing Mu Chen's skin was a type he had never seen before, he suddenly heard a loud bang behind him.
As he turned around, he saw that the pseudo-mother, who was tens of meters tall and had a sky-covering presence when she stood up to chase them, now had several bloody holes exploded in the middle of her body.
"This is……"
Lu Gui was startled. He hadn't done anything, so how did this thing end up like this?
"Change it for me."
Mingmei had just taken out the talismans and magical artifacts left to her by her parents for self-defense and tried throwing one at the pseudo-mother. To her surprise, the effect was exceptionally good.
Although everyone knows that Mingmei has not cultivated, it is impossible for her not to have any problems with regulating the various energies in her body, given that she has eaten a lot of good food.
She didn't expect that as soon as she made her move, Lu Gui suddenly turned around, causing her to end up with her entire body and buttocks facing the pseudo-mother before she could even see the effect of her actions.
I'm a little scared.
"Uh...you were the one who made the move?"
Upon hearing Mingmei's words, Lu Gui realized that it was Mingmei who had done it.
He quickly changed his posture, from holding Mingmei with one hand to picking up the four-headed little bean and letting her sit on his forearm.
After Lu Gui had "settled" Mingmei down, he finally saw clearly that Mingmei was holding another extremely powerful talisman, and he instantly felt envious.
He wasn't unfamiliar with this thing, nor was he unaware of how expensive it was.
Even though he can be considered a high-level employee of Tianyi Pavilion now, if you ask him to spend a lot of money to buy a talisman, sorry, he is not worthy!
Is this the difference between NPCs and players?
Is this the extravagant wealth of a second-generation immortal?
"Mm." Mingmei nodded in agreement, holding the talisman in her hand, her face cold.
The aloof and unapproachable look on her face made Lu Gui wonder why all the NPCs in this game had such a high level of prestige.
Heaven knows that when Mingmei remembered that she could use the things her parents left her to attack, she instantly recalled the issue of Lu Gui's actions earlier.
Did he subconsciously refrain from using magic and assume he was from the interstellar era just because he was holding a dagger? And then, to his utter surprise, the other party noticed so quickly, grabbing his hand at point-blank range and preventing the dagger from getting any closer?
It's no wonder he got his hand crushed. =.=
"Oh, so you have a trick up your sleeve."
Xie Chen was also surprised to see the fake mother so badly injured by Mingmei, and at the same time, he looked warily at the object he had just taken from Mingmei.
He took it out again, staring at the jade slip as if talking to himself: "What about this one? Is it also very powerful?"
"You can try it yourself, crush it and see." Mingmei saw Xie Chen staring curiously at the jade slip and hurriedly spoke up.
As soon as she finished speaking, the other party revealed a mocking smile, and then carefully put Yujian away again.
At this, a subtle glint flashed in her bright eyes.
Is this the bug?
Mingmei confirmed with Guigui again. From the moment this guy dared to attack her, Mingmei knew that the other party was neither Xie Chen nor Mu Chen.
They just have the same face.
[Host...the other party is very sensitive to my detection waves. I'm not sure, and I'm afraid of alerting them.] Gui Gui had helped Ming Mei investigate a few times in the game before, but the results told Gui Gui that the guy was incredibly cunning!
[However, how did you confirm that? Just because he didn't hold back when he attacked you?]
【Hmm.】Mingmei nodded. That was enough. 【However, he seems to be unfamiliar with many aspects of this world's setting, like the jade slip he took from me. Guigui, do you know how that jade slip can summon my parents?】
【crumb?】
【More than that.】 Just like with the ghost, it was unfamiliar with her and could only guess based on the flaws she had deliberately revealed earlier, and the other party was the same.
[Besides crushing it, there's another way. When the jade slip leaves my body and creates distance between us for a period of time, and it can no longer sense my presence, it will automatically try to re-enter.]
Mingmei stared intently at "Xie Chen," her gaze incredibly bright, guessing that her parents would arrive in a little while.
"Aren't you afraid of me?" Xie Chen was about to launch another attack when he noticed Ming Mei's unusually bright gaze and asked, "Aren't you afraid I'll kill you all to silence you?"
Although villains often die from talking too much, this one was clearly not just all talk and no action.
The moment he finished saying "silence them," his fingers twitched slightly, and the enlarged version of the pseudo-mother, with her bloodied and mangled body, lunged at them again in a frenzy.
At this moment, with one arm holding a child and the other arm broken, Lu Gui, who could still run around nimbly except for her two legs, had no choice but to look at Mingmei and dodge.
"I'm not afraid." Despite the bumpy ride, Mingmei met Xie Chen's gaze again without any fear. She reached out and threw the talisman in her hand at the pseudo-mother chasing them. The power of the talisman was so great that even Xie Chen had to back down!
After taking out one talisman, Guan Mingmei pulled out another stack of talismans and unleashed another "Heavenly Maiden Scattering Money" attack on the pseudo-mother who was stunned by the talisman. The various talisman attacks made Lu Gui feel as if the sky had collapsed and the earth had caved in behind him.
He couldn't help but glance back at the pitiful state of the fake mother, and silently wondered what level he could achieve if he had a mecha.
"Really..."
Seeing that the pseudo-mother he had created was dealt with by a bright little girl, Xie Chen's expression turned gloomy. He raised his hand and a quantum computer popped out from his wrist, completely out of place with the game's era.
Mingmei and Lu Gui were startled. They saw the other party's fingers moving nimbly on the quantum computer, and then the pseudo-mother, who had just been beaten into a puddle of mud by Mingmei, was suddenly shrouded in a cloud of black mist.
"It's demonic energy, and also filthy evil energy..."
Mingmei finally understood why her father had said these insect-shaped evil spirits possessed demonic energy.
[Host, this thing is about to undergo its second evolution!]
Just as Mingmei was about to use her "money power" after Guigui's effective reminder, a bright light suddenly streaked across the dark sky of the secret realm. An attack with two beams of light, one red and one white, instantly struck the black mist on the ground, piercing through the spot and leaving no trace of the corpse.
Mei Shi and Ming Yi just appeared out of nowhere!
"Father, Mother!"
Seeing this, Mingmei excitedly waved to them.
The next second, out of the corner of her eye, Mingmei saw that the person with the same face as Mu Chen was about to run away, so she immediately opened her mouth to shout to remind Mei Shi and Ming Yi to take action!
Where are you going?
Mei Shi first rushed towards the furtive man in black who was some distance away from her daughter.
But before Mei Shi could react, the other party touched his personal computer twice and disappeared!
