Chapter 38 The Crybaby's Endless Escape (Part 19)
How do you break down an arrogant person?
To shatter all her hopes, to deny her understanding, and to turn her into a worthless piece of trash.
Si Yisi wasn't good at defeating opponents in this way, but Shen Chen, who was living a life worse than death in the endless darkness, knew it all too well.
Si Yisi did not kill Chen Mengxi directly. He even released Chen Mengxi and quietly looked down at her kneeling down with indifference and disdain in his eyes.
The more indifferent Si Yisi acted, the more resentful Chen Mengxi's eyes became—
Like a rat in a sewer, Chen Mengxi finally tore off the mask she had been wearing, revealing her arrogant, selfish, and hateful nature.
"Impossible!" Chen Mengxi shook her head frantically, refuting Si Yisi's words. "You're a piece of trash! A piece of trash will only ever be a piece of trash!"
Blood gushed out of the wound on her abdomen, dripping down and forming a small puddle.
"Trash doesn't deserve to live!!" Chen Mengxi's expression was fierce. She suddenly stood up and rammed into Si Yisi, as if she wanted to tear a piece of Si Yisi's flesh off with her teeth!
"You're right." Si Yisi looked down at her condescendingly, easily dodging Chen Mengxi's desperate struggle. "Trash doesn't deserve to live—"
He chuckled and said, word by word, "You, aren't you just that kind of good-for-nothing?"
Chen Mengxi's body, which was bound by the ghost, stiffened.
Si Yisi threw a mirror in front of Chen Mengxi, and suddenly, dense hairs sprouted from the pores of Chen Mengxi's face in the mirror!
"Aaaaaah!" Chen Mengxi screamed in terror as she looked at herself in the mirror. She frantically clutched her face, but her hands were cut by the hair that was as sharp as a sword tip!
Fa Gui smiled ingratiatingly at Si Yisi and withdrew his hand.
"Chen Chen is useless, a piece of trash?" Si Yisi sneered. "And aren't you, Chen Mengxi, a piece of trash too? Look at you, without your face, what do you have left?"
Chen Mengxi sat there blankly until Si Yisi asked what she had left. She actually managed to squeeze through the encirclement of ghosts and monsters and rushed towards the wall where Shen Yingqing was!
"I have him! I have him, my boyfriend!"
Chen Mengxi reached out and gripped the wall, hoping that the image of Shen Yingqing embedded in it would give her a response.
Si Yisi tilted her head: "Your dog won't listen to you anymore."
At his command, several pairs of ghostly hands grabbed Chen Mengxi's hair and dragged her back to Si Yisi.
Even so, Chen Mengxi's bloodshot eyes remained fixed on Shen Yingqing, her expression terrifying.
"Boss, I'll do it!" Mo Wuchang finally found his task. Understandingly, he picked up a stick and struck straight at Shen Yingqing!
A dull thud rang out, and Shen Yingqing's stiff features, embedded in the wall, were shattered as if by stone!
His face shattered into several pieces and rolled to Chen Mengxi's feet, where he never lived again.
Si Yisi continued, a surge of malice erupting from Chen Chen's body in an instant: "It's not over yet, cousin."
At that moment, a tear rolled down Si Yisi's cheek and fell to the ground with a thud.
But his devilish face made Chen Mengxi, who was lying on the ground, scream loudly!
Si Yisi pressed his hand against the wound on Chen Mengxi's waist. A surge of malice was boiling in his chest, prompting him to tear the wound apart!
Chen Mengxi struggled, but Si Yisi's hand was forced into her wound. What pain!
But then Chen Mengxi fell into a new kind of pain!
Si Yisi stopped, frowned, and while interacting with Chen Mengxi, he opened the system shop and purchased a memory communication device.
Si Yisi poured every last bit of Shen Chen's memories into Chen Mengxi's brain!
"Treat others as they treat you," that's what the original owner thought, so Si Yisi helped him do it!
Chen Mengxi experienced excruciating pain as a large amount of memories were forcibly implanted into her brain, but this was only the beginning—
She fell into Shen Chen's memories, replacing the Shen Chen who was forcibly dragged down by the ghost!
Countless ghostly hands pulled at Chen Mengxi's limbs, their inhuman strength binding her tightly and slowly, slowly pulling her outwards... outwards!
Aaaaaah! Chen Mengxi heard the sound of bones cracking, and her limbs were in pain. While she was still conscious, she experienced the boundless pain of being torn apart!
Ouch! Ouch, ouch, ouch—!
Countless words of pain pierced Chen Mengxi's brain. She opened her eyes, which seemed to be covered with a layer of blood, and saw someone who looked exactly like her looking down at her from above!
What kind of smile did that person who looked exactly like him have? It was mocking, resentful, and gloating, with his eyebrows raised in delight.
Chen Mengxi saw it clearly!
This despicable man, who looks just like me, is hugging Shen Yingqing and laughing happily—
As for Chen Mengxi herself, she was torn to pieces by the ghosts, and every bit of pain was transmitted to her body!
"ah--!"
Chen Mengxi gasped for breath as she snapped out of Chen Chen's memories. She didn't have time to look at Si Yisi or the ghosts around her, but instead quickly reached for her own body!
It wasn't torn apart, it wasn't torn apart...that's good.
Chen Mengxi gave a smile of relief, as if she had survived a close call.
Si Yisi also smiled at her at the opportune moment. He looked at the trembling ghosts and said, "She gave each of you ghosts... one each."
He emphasized the last three words, and the ghosts understood and released their grip on Chen Mengxi's hair.
They forcibly grabbed Chen Mengxi's body, and then—
Once again, the rental house was tainted by a strong ghostly aura, becoming a paradise for these ghosts and monsters.
Black mist filled the entire room, and the ghosts dragging Chen Mengxi shed their pitiful appearance, revealing their hideous faces!
Large patches of lividity suddenly appeared on the elderly landlord's exposed skin, and pieces of decaying skin peeled off one after another...
Looking at the air conditioner ghost, the toilet ghost, and other ghosts, their eyes were filled with greed and ecstasy as they looked at Chen Mengxi. The cold, ruthless light in their eyes was chilling.
Mo Wuchang couldn't help but rub his hands together and then his neck. He realized just how lucky he was!
If it weren't for Si Yisi clearing the way, he would probably have been swarmed and torn to pieces long ago!
"You want...you..." Chen Mengxi's voice was as soft as a cat's. She thought she had escaped from the nightmare, but!
The nightmare has come true once again!
"No! No!! Shen Chen, I beg you, no—!" Chen Mengxi screamed shrilly as she experienced that nightmare once again, feeling her limbs slowly detaching from her body!
Si Yisi watched as the monsters, with their hideous faces, tore Chen Mengxi's body apart bit by bit.
He stood there quietly, almost like a statue, a few tears falling down his cheeks.
The resentment that had always lingered in Shen Chen's body vanished with the falling tears.
"Useless." Si Yisi met Chen Mengxi's eyes and uttered the last two words she would ever hear in her life.
Chen Mengxi fell to the ground with her eyes wide open. Her body was torn to pieces, and her blood was greedily devoured by the ghosts before it could even fall to the ground.
The chilling sounds of chewing and sucking came from the ghost.
A dark shadow suddenly darted out of Chen Mengxi's body, was spotted by the sharp-eyed ghost, and was immediately crunched to pieces in its mouth.
In an instant, Si Yisi heard a sharp, piercing scream—and then the sound fell completely silent!
After these terrifying monsters with blood on their lips devoured Chen Mengxi, they turned their attention to Si Yisi.
Mo Wuchang swallowed hard, wondering if this was a sign of internal strife.
Then he saw the ghosts immediately tidy up their appearance in front of Si Yisi, wiping away the blood from the corners of their lips, and removing the livid spots and rotting flesh.
At first glance, they look like a group of extras from a horror movie with a slightly eerie vibe.
They bowed deeply to Si Yisi with utmost respect, and Si Yisi said, "Let's go."
They quickly, very quickly, slipped away from where they were! Mo Wuchang guarantees that they are faster than the speed of light!
Mo Wuchang took a long breath, and then heard the sound of an eggshell cracking—crack!
The world shattered! Mo Wuchang plunged headfirst into that world, which shattered like a mirror.
"My God, my God, my God!" Mo Wuchang cried out as he fell from mid-air, covered in dust, before being rescued by Si Yisi and placed on a platform.
Si Yisi disgustedly grabbed Mo Wuchang by the collar and threw him onto the platform.
Mo Wuchang had only been causing trouble for a short while when he calmed down. Si Yisi saw a blue light emanating from Mo Wuchang's pupils and guessed that it was probably the end of an escape game.
A semi-transparent panel appeared before Si Yisi's eyes, much like a system shop, with various skills, weapons, food, clothing, and accessories to choose from.
Mo Wuchang exclaimed in alarm, "Boss! Did you see that semi-transparent panel?! It's been spinning all the time!"
"I see it," Si Yisi thought to himself. The semi-transparent panel in front of him flickered and made a buzzing sound like a broken machine.
He killed Chen Mengxi, which severely damaged this small world. It would be strange if this didn't happen!
"Wow, there are so many useful things in this panel. Can I redeem them with points? I'll have to think about it carefully..." Mo Wuchang called to Si Yisi, "Boss, why don't you take a look and see if there's anything you want to redeem!"
Si Yisi responded, but did not look at the panel.
Shen Chen's soul is awakening within Si Yisi's body. He has completed his mission and should return to the system space. The choice of which skills to use to survive in this escape game will be made by the real Shen Chen.
As Si Yisi slowly pulled away—
Mo Wuchang excitedly shared the panel with him.
"Boss, I've made up my mind, I want to choose this one!"
The panel displayed by Mo Wuchang reads: Industrial Mermaid's Tears [Skill]. When using this skill, the tears will turn into artificial diamonds. Note: There will be some visual blurring as a side effect, so please use it with caution.
Si Yisi's eyes twitched, and tears streamed down his cheeks... He quietly left some things for Shen Chen.
Then, at that moment, Si Yisi completely separated from Shen Chen's body and entered the return passage.
Si Yisi saw a messy little world, with the filthy "insect" struggling to move its body, trying to repair this dilapidated little world.
His eyes shone brightly, a fleeting hint of pleasure crossing his face.
In the small world—
Shen Chen returned to his body. Mo Wuchang's excited expression vanished. He looked at his boss, whose gaze had changed in an instant, and asked:
"Who are you?"
Shen Chen said slowly but firmly, "I am Shen Chen, but not the Shen Chen you know."
As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes, revealing his joy and relief.
Shen Chen thought about Si Yisi's last words to him: "The protagonist Chen Mengxi is dead. This world may target you, and the difficulty of your escape game will likely increase."
The protagonist... Shen Chen chuckled softly. He only now realized that Chen Mengxi was the chosen protagonist! But what did it matter? She was still dead!
After composing himself, Shen Chen said to Mo Wuchang, "The Shen Chen you know... or rather, the system has left you a surprise."
"A surprise?" Mo Wuchang scrutinized Shen Chen's expression, his own becoming excited. "What is it?"
"He said you have to find it yourself." Shen Chen thought, isn't this a panacea?
Mo Wuchang, however, seemed to already know what this surprise was, and said, "I will try my best!"
—Si Yisi then turned her gaze back to the time period after he left.
Mo Wuchang made a living by relying on the tears of his industrial mermaid. Whenever he used his skill, artificial diamonds would rain down, creating huge craters with each impact!
Later on, it got even worse—when Mo Wuchang's skills were upgraded to a certain level, the artificial diamonds he dropped were no longer in the form of ore, but in the form of small swords and knives!
Si Yisi: "..."
He silently pressed his forehead. Why did he have to commit such a terrible sin and leave a host slot for Mo Wuchang?
The host slots will come into play when Mo Wuchang is on the verge of death, automatically binding him to a host.
Si Yisi had initially valued Mo Wuchang's talent, but at this moment he inexplicably felt a little regretful...
System platform.
System 2333, Chi Chun, was waiting there. When he saw Si Yisi come out, he glanced at him and hurriedly said, "You didn't ruin the small world, did you?!"
Chi Chun quickly coughed again, trying to cover up her misunderstanding by asking with concern, "Asi, are you alright?"
Si Yisi glanced at him.
I have already heard it.
