Chapter 551: The Side Effect Of Folding

It seemed that, at this moment, they had temporarily put away their competitive spirit in becoming the only True God in the world.

The footfalls sounded like rumbling thunder; the planet’s crust quivered so hard it seemed like it would fall apart at any moment. Lin Sanjiu did not dare to look over her shoulder, nor was she even given the time to do so. But even without turning her head, she would have known that the density of the Gods must have reached a degree that would make her scalp itch. Half of the desert was in chaos, the sky was covered in sand, and every breath she took was filled with sand. She could barely see the path ahead, and there was nothing she could do besides squinting her eyes and braving through the havoc like a headless fly.

But compared to the Gods, who could effortlessly cover a thousand miles in one stride, she couldn’t run away from their pursuit no matter how fast she went. Her vision was heavily obstructed, and when she thought she had run far enough, a large toenail cap emerged amidst the sandstorm. She turned her head to another side, only to find a vague shadow of a calf that had appeared in that direction.

Her heart was jumping fast as if it were on fire. With the knowledge that she would not be able to escape with her strength alone, she clamped onto the elder brother tightly and called out the [Battle Item]. She then turned it into a Special Item designed for escaping that she had read in the [Notebook]. Once she had the Special Item in her palm, she activated it.

[Luhua First Grade Groundnut Oil]

I bet everyone is reasonably familiar with the saying, “if you wish to go faster, you have to put some grease on your shoes.” Based on folk physics, this Special Item could tremendously boost the user’s running speed. No matter how fast you were able to run in the past, you could go even faster after removing friction out of the equation. The idea is simple; when you thrust yourself along a smooth plane, not even Usain Bolt would be able to catch up to you. Hence, no matter if you are running for your life or being dunned for your debts, everybody should bring along a bottle of Luhua First Grade Groundnut Oil.

Condition to note: People who have never eaten groundnut oil in their life cannot activate this Special Item. The duration of this Special Item is similar to the evaporation time of a 2ml groundnut oil on a hot pan. Although this item can be used indefinitely, ever since its discovery, very few posthumans have used it continuously.

Lin Sanjiu regretted it the moment she activated the item.

It was never in her imagination that the Special Item would be so true to its description. When it said to put on some grease, it actually put some lubricant on her shoes! She thought it was merely a metaphor and that the Special Item would only increase her running speed. But after she fell and rolled on the ground a few times, she finally realized how wrong she was.

“No wonder no one wants to use this goddamn thing!”

They were now in the desert, and without friction, Lin Sanjiu couldn’t even maintain her balance anymore. She slid forward along with the elder brother. For a second, the world in her vision was all upside down. The ground continued to shake, causing her to roll even further away.

As the description of the Special Item claimed, it indeed tremendously boosted her speed, so much so that even Gods couldn’t catch her. But she could barely control where she wanted to go. All she could do was grip tightly to the elder brother’s ankle and put the matter into the hands of fate as she buried her face in her arms to shield herself from all the impacts.

It was impossible to stand up. The Gods began to mobilize again — every step they took felt as if they were trying to crush this planet. Big rumbles assaulted her ears, and sand buffeted her skin. And as she and the elder brother were thrown into the air, the effect of [Pygmalion Choker] wore off. The elder brother was freed.

He immediately began to flail his legs around, and he almost succeeded in freeing himself from Lin Sanjiu’s clutch. She dared not loosen her hold. She gripped onto him as hard as she could, even going to the extent of stabbing her nails into his skin. However, under such circumstances, she wouldn’t be able to contain the elder brother no matter how strong she was.

The silver lining was that the elder brother seemed to be even more incompetent than the Gods he had summoned. Though he had regained his mobility, all he managed to do was flail helplessly, hoping one of his kicks or punches would connect. Lin Sanjiu was hit by one of his punches, and her clutch loosened. Just when she was about to grab him once more, the groundnut oil moved her into another direction, causing her hand to slip off the elder brother’s trousers.

Lin Sanjiu quickly grabbed his ankle before she completely lost him. However, she hadn’t even relaxed when a hand descended from the white fog above, stabbing into the sand. Half of the hand buried into the sand, coming straight at her in high velocity. For a moment, two walls made of sand filled her vision, and the elder brother’s provocation drifted into her ears, “That’s it! It’s over! You’re done!”

There was no way she could run from this.

Very soon, the elder brother and Lin Sanjiu were caught in that God’s palm. She could even sense the bouncy texture of the hand with her skin.

Lin Sanjiu would rather die than fall into these Gods’ hands.

In the next second, the God slowly closed his fist, his large and strong fingers squeezing in. Just when the five fingers were about to close, the two little figures inside suddenly sprang out from a slit between the fingers like two fleas.

They did not fall straight to the ground; instead, they flew high into the sky, crossed the broad swath of yellow sand land, and turned into a twinkle in the white mist.

Lin Sanjiu had activated [A Twinkle In The Sky] again. However, this time, she grasped the elder brother’s ankle. Together, both of them were flung into the sky.

There were stars in her eyes, and the raging wind assaulted her ears. She was losing her body heat fast, and she was shivering. Her fingers had become so stiff that they turned white, for she had wrung the elder brother’s ankle too hard. It was painful, but that was nothing compared to the impact she felt when she landed on the ground.

It felt as if every single bone in her body had broken and would explode out. She had no idea which organs had been hit. Her vision turned black, consciousness fading. For a moment, there wasn’t any air going into her lungs, and she couldn’t make any sound.

After some time, which felt like an eternity, when Lin Sanjiu thought she was already dead, her sensations slowly returned to her. The first thing to return was her vision, and the first thing she saw was the billowing white fog in the sky. Then, the pain came, spreading across each and every one of her cells. Her hearing was the last thing to return, and once again she heard the footfalls of the Gods, pounding the ground and throwing her body slightly off the ground.

Struggling to get back to her feet, Lin Sanjiu surveyed her surroundings. She was surprised to find out that she was still grasping onto the elder brother’s trousers.

But the elder brother had not been as lucky as her.

His head was twisted 90 degrees towards the back. The back of his head pressed tightly to his spine, causing his body to curve up into an arc. It seemed that the bones in his neck were crushed, his neck having become as soft as melted chewing gum.

She tried to look through her blurry eyes, but all she could see were the cliffs that surrounded them. They were now in the bottom of a canyon, filled with all sorts of odd-shaped stones in different sizes. Her luck was good, for she had landed on the river bank. If she had fallen a little bit far as half a meter to the side, she might have shared the same fate as the elder brother.

The ground continued to grumble, but it was getting lesser, and the vibrations were getting weaker and further away. Holding her breath, Lin Sanjiu waited for a moment in silence until she heard nothing. It seemed that as soon as the elder brother had died, the Gods lost their direction. They couldn’t locate them, so they parted away.

Waiting in silence for another ten minutes, Lin Sanjiu soon no longer felt the ground vibrating.

She heaved a long sigh of relief as she covered her face with her hands. She climbed down the rock, feeling the intense pain that shot up every one of the cells in her body — every step she took and every movement she made felt like she was stung by a thousand needles.

Huffing, Lin Sanjiu finally made her way to the body of the elder brother. Then, she placed her palm on her body.

“Whatever this guy is, the truth will be revealed once I turn his body into a card.”

To her surprise, although she activated the [Planar World] a few times, the body did not turn into a card.

“Eh?” Lin Sanjiu’s brows furrowed in confusion. She stared at the corpse and fell into deep thought. From her side, the elder brother looked like a headless corpse. Suddenly, something clicked in her mind.

Once again, she endured the pain and flipped the elder brother over.

With two wide-opened eyes, he looked into Lin Sanjiu’s eyes.
