Chapter 27 Mom Loves You (6)
Lin Chujiu figured out the way to pass the level, and her eyes gradually changed from timid to determined.
She was hesitant to use it, but ensuring her daughter's safety has always been a mother's wish.
Even if the "daughter" is a player, it's a fake "daughter".
My mother was willing to go through fire and water without hesitation.
The monsters were tearing at the flesh of the mother in front of them. The mother's arms were outstretched, like a hen spreading her wings, determined to protect her chicks.
But her power was too small. She was only one person, while there were hundreds or thousands of monsters and stall owners. How could she, alone, withstand them?
Moreover, some of the weirdos have already come up with the idea of attacking the meat stall behind Lin Chujiu.
The viewers in the live chat all thought Lin Chujiu would run away, and they gasped in shock. But they saw Lin Chujiu just sitting there motionless, as if she was stunned.
As the eerie approach, she "tried" to move backward, shouting, "Mommy, save me! Mommy, save me!"
The comments section was momentarily strange, followed by a wave of exasperation.
Run! Run faster!
Why are you suddenly acting like a fool? Run! You're going to die here any minute now!
[Damn, what's so interesting about this? Let's go!]
[Stay and watch this woman die]
Women just aren't up to it; they get so scared in situations like this they quickly wet their pants, unlike us men who are much more resilient.
[Haha, you guys are amazing. You're amazing in both the front and the back. You can make a living whether you're in the front or the back.]
Most viewers were wondering why, even when she had no ability to resist, Lin Chujiu always insisted on hiding if she could, and running away if she couldn't. Her tenacity was stronger than that of a cockroach.
Many viewers even gave Lin Chujiu nicknames like "Little Strong Sister" and "Leg-Hugging Sister" because of this.
Why did you suddenly give up? Did you lose your composure? It's really strange.
Everyone pondered this, but to no avail, and could only temporarily attribute it to a mental breakdown.
In the distance, Jiang Chaoyu stood on high ground, quietly watching all of this, but a smile appeared on his face.
It's the teacher's smile when they see a clever student answer a question correctly.
He then gifted a romantic flower sea image to the live stream as a reward for the well-behaved student.
As a clerk in the underworld, he had previously made an exception to save Lin Chujiu, but he couldn't guarantee he would save her all the time.
Therefore, what Lin Chujiu needs is her own growth and her own ability.
Only by becoming strong herself can she have the ability to survive in any environment.
All Jiang Chaoyu could do was guide, but not interfere.
As Lin Chujiu cried and shouted, she noticed out of the corner of her eye the expression on the pig demon's face, and saw a rare look of bewilderment on its ugly face.
Then came anger.
"Dead is dead. With your current strength, even if you get out, it won't make a difference!" The pig demon sneered, laughing at the mother's overestimation of her abilities.
But soon it stopped laughing.
As Lin Chujiu's shouts grew louder and the monsters drew closer to her, the pig demon's expression became increasingly terrified.
Its obese body was rapidly shrinking, and the fat particles that flowed out rolled around, falling to the ground one by one, then dissolving into puddles of foul-smelling yellow water.
An intense pressure erupted from the pig demon, even greater than when Lin Chujiu and the pig demon confronted each other in front of the door.
Lin Chujiu felt as if her bones were about to be crushed, a metallic taste rose in her throat, and her internal organs felt as if they were about to burst.
"Let's see if you can come out!" the pig demon roared, its expression changing from ferocious to pain.
Just as Lin Chujiu's leg was scratched by a ghost—
The power within the pig spirit reached an unprecedented level, and its expression gradually calmed down, but its eyes became more compassionate, and its gaze towards Lin Chujiu was full of care, like a mother's gaze.
"Jiu Jiu, don't be afraid—"
"Pig spirit," no, her mother said, looking in her direction.
The surroundings were noisy, and Lin Chujiu couldn't hear the sounds, but she could understand the lip movements.
The eeriness around them and the stall owners seemed to have suddenly lost their connection, and everyone stopped what they were doing, their hands hovering in mid-air.
The viewers in the live stream fell silent at this moment, somewhat confused as to how there could still be a turning point.
The eerie hand that had grabbed Lin Chujiu was still on her leg. It belonged to a young female elf, but strangely, an old elf was pulling her from behind, as if trying to stop her.
Lin Chujiu shakily moved her foot away from the eerie hand.
She called out in her mother's direction, "Mom—"
But Mom cried, and large tears rolled down her face.
"Jiu Jiu, you must live well."
Mom was laughing through her tears.
The next instant, her expression turned furious and resentful. "How dare you!"
She shouted, and Lin Chujiu knew that it was a pig demon.
The mother's expression immediately softened, yet remained resolute.
"What wouldn't I dare to do? If you dare touch my daughter, I'll make sure you die!"
"My mother said firmly, her voice full of hatred."
The next instant, a golden light flashed where she was—
Lin Chujiu stared blankly, tears streaming down her face.
She couldn't stop it, she could only push it forward.
Golden light exploded, instantly engulfing the entire world. The raging flames of pure souls were enough to incinerate all remaining evil here.
All the eerie creatures and stall owners were engulfed in fire, screeching and howling, but were burned to ashes.
Many of these people were indifferent bystanders or even perpetrators in this family's tragedy. They did not offer any help when their parents died. In the mother's memory, they were the only evil beings.
Therefore, in the copy formed by the mother's thoughts, they were transformed into the bizarre.
At the same time, a white light appeared on the horizon, symbolizing endless hope.
"Run!" Mom shouted one last time.
Lin Chujiu turned around with difficulty, only to see countless flames, and in the flames, the figure was so small yet so determined.
Without further hesitation, she turned and ran toward the white light ahead.
The fire spread quickly, soon reaching her side. With each step she took, she felt the surroundings getting hotter and hotter, and several times the flames grazed her body.
She ran and ran until she reached the white light. Without hesitation, she stepped across it.
A gentle white light instantly enveloped her body, separating her from the world behind her that was burning with endless flames.
At the same time, the system notification sounded like celestial music:
Congratulations to player Lin Chujiu for achieving A-level completion!
The dungeon mom told you not to look back (end)
The reward for this instance is 24,669.69 yuan.
A-level completion reward: Pig-slaughtering knife (the knife used by parents to slaughter pigs; it's not very sharp, but it's extremely durable, passed down through three generations, and the knife remains even after the person leaves).
The player has advanced to the next level. Current level: One Star.
Lin Chujiu listened, unsure of what to think. She should have been happy to escape the dungeon, but the thought of her mother who self-destructed to protect her daughter made it impossible for her to smile.
Lin Chujiu's legs went weak, and she slumped to the ground, overwhelmed by despair and resentment.
