Collapse

Ugh...!

Fang Qi suffocated instantly!

His vision went black, and the agonizing pain of his crushed windpipe was crystal clear!

He could feel the trembling of Liguang's fingertips!

A thrilling, out-of-control spasm!

She was truly broken, truly insane!

She... this time, she really wanted to kill him!

This... this was the first time she actually wanted to kill him!

But...

Amidst the agony of suffocation, his mind unexpectedly began to wander.

To think... it would end like this this time?

The first time... being killed by this madwoman...

Compared to getting his legs broken... having his brain scrambled... or being turned into a human-sized body pillow...

This kind of ending seemed... rather straightforward?

Moreover...

His vision was already getting blurry!

He struggled to look at the face that was so close to his own.

Liguang was staring dead at him!

The crimson in her red eyes churned madly, and the smile on her lips was twisted and fanatical!

The strap of her white slip dress had slipped down, revealing a large expanse of her pale shoulder, while her silver hair whipped wildly around her from the movement!

Cough, cough...!

You crazy woman... you even look pretty when you're killing someone...

His consciousness began to blur, and the edges of his vision darkened.

Yet, strangely, he felt a sense of peace in his heart. There was even a hint of disappointment.

The duration of this mountain retreat experience card was really short...!

He hadn't even managed to eat a decent dinner...

However, just a second before he lost consciousness completely...

The pressure around his neck suddenly loosened!

Cough...! Cough, cough, cough...!

His body's instinctual desire to survive made Fang Qi arch his back violently, coughing uncontrollably!

He clutched his neck, gasping heavily for air!

The stinging pain of fresh air rushing into his lungs brought tears to his eyes!

He looked up—

Liguang had let go and was now staring blankly at her own palm.

The hand that had just been choking him was now trembling violently.

The crimson in her red eyes receded like the tide, revealing the chaotic data streams and blue electrical sparks beneath.

I... I...

She opened her mouth, her voice reverting back to that soft, sweet tone laced with a sob:

What... what did I do... to Master...?

As if terrified of herself, she jerked backward!

Clatter—!

The chain around her ankle pulled taut instantly!

Cough... hey, don't...! Cough, cough!

Fang Qi clutched his neck, which bore clear finger marks, and was dragged forward a few stumbling steps!

And Liguang had already retreated to the maximum length of the chain!

She leaned against the wall of the wooden cabin, covering her face tightly with both hands!

Between her slender fingers, blue electrical sparks crackled and sputtered!

A few wisps of blue smoke even seeped out from between her fingers!

I'm sorry...! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!!!!

Her voice leaked through her fingers, carrying an almost broken sob!

Liguang didn't mean to... Liguang didn't want to hurt Master...!!

Liguang couldn't control it...!! I'm sorry... I'm sorry...!!!

Crying, she used her forehead... and smashed it ruthlessly against the wall behind her!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Crack...!

Dull thuds of impact!

Followed by the sound of the wooden wall splintering!

...This crazy woman has a head of steel!

Fang Qi clutched his still-aching neck and managed to croak, Li...

But he couldn't even form the words!

I didn't want to... I didn't want to kill Master...!

Liguang suddenly lowered her hands and looked up.

Her face was streaked with tears, and the blue sparks in her red eyes burst wildly!

She seemed to have made some sort of decision, a flash of absolute resolve crossing her eyes—

Then she spun around and dashed out the door!

Clatter, clatter, clatter—!!!

The chain was instantly pulled straight and taut!

A massive pulling force came from his ankle!

Before Fang Qi could even react, he was yanked backward by the chain, falling to the ground!

Hey...!!

He braced himself against the floor, but his body was uncontrollably dragged several meters by Liguang!

The rough ground scraped his elbows raw!

I...!!

And Liguang had already rushed outside, her back to Fang Qi, wrapping her arms tightly around the trunk of a tree!

Her nails dug deep into the bark!

Go...! Master, hurry and go...!

Stay away from Liguang...!!!

Her voice was hoarse, filled with a desperate wail:

Liguang... Liguang is going to kill Master...! Liguang doesn't want to...! So... so...!

She couldn't go on. She just clung to the tree trunk, her slender shoulders trembling violently.

Fang Qi coughed twice more. Sitting on the ground, he looked at the silver-haired girl with her back to him, shaking with sobs, and then looked at the thick chain linking their ankles...

Go?

Where am I supposed to go!

The two of us are still chained together...!

If you really wanted me to escape... you should have used your laser blade to cut it!

However, the very next second—

Liguang's hands, which had been hugging the tree trunk, suddenly let go.

She slowly turned around once more.

All the tears, breakdowns, and despair on her face... were replaced in an instant by something hotter, more delirious.

In her red eyes, the crimson light—once again, slowly rose.

But this time, it wasn't cold.

It was boiling, scalding, carrying both sobs and laughter—

Utterly insane.

No...

She shook her head gently, but the corners of her mouth began to stretch wide again. Tears still clung to her face, but her smile was already twisted:

You can't go...

Master... cannot leave Liguang...

Never... ever...!!!

The last gleam of sanity in her eyes was completely extinguished!

The crimson swallowed everything!

In those shattered red eyes, there was laughter, tears, a desire to destroy, and a possessive urge!

There was a madness of loving someone so deeply that she wanted to chew him to pieces and swallow him down!!

The silver-haired girl pounced forward fiercely!

Those slender, icy hands... once again clamped ruthlessly around Fang Qi's neck!

This time, the force was even fiercer and more brutal than before!

Fang Qi could even hear...

The faint cracking sounds coming from his own cervical vertebrae!

The sensation of suffocation drowned him like a tidal wave!

His vision abruptly went black!

In his field of view...

Only Liguang's face, mere inches away, remained!

The crimson flood of data in her red eyes churned madly!

The curve of her wide smile was exaggerated to the point of distortion!

Heehee... heeheehee... Master... Master will be together with Liguang...!!

...This time, I should be able to load my save file, right?

Amidst the agony of suffocation, Fang Qi slowly closed his eyes.

Ready to welcome that familiar darkness and the white light of reloading!

But...

The pressure around his neck... suddenly loosened again!

Cough...! Cough, cough, cough—!

The stinging pain of fresh air rushing back into his lungs made Fang Qi arch his back violently, tears shooting from his eyes!

Hah—hah—!

He clutched his neck, gasping heavily!

...What... the f*ck!!!

You crazy woman!!!

What exactly are you trying to do!!!

Just give me a quick death!!!

Panting heavily, he looked up—

The silver-haired girl had let go and was now staring blankly at her own palm.

The hand that had just been choking his neck was now trembling violently!

The crimson in her red eyes receded rapidly like an ebbing tide, once again revealing the chaotic data streams and wildly sputtering blue electrical sparks beneath!

Those sparks crackled and popped!

Even a few drops splashed onto the back of her own pale hand, burning faint scorch marks into the skin!

"I... I..."

She opened her mouth, her voice terribly hoarse:

"I... did it to Master... again..."

Before she could finish, she suddenly clutched her head tightly!

Her slender fingers dug deep into her silver hair, gripping so hard her knuckles turned white!

"No... no no no—!!!"

She screamed!

Her voice carried a near-collapsing despair!

"Liguang cannot... cannot...!! Absolutely not—!!!"

As she screamed, she used her forehead to...

Viciously smash against her own knees!

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The dull impacts were exceptionally clear in the quiet woods.

Fang Qi clutched his burning neck, gasping for air as he watched the crazy woman suddenly harming herself in front of him.

His mind was entirely blank, practically exploding!

Just what... was he supposed to do right now??!

However, the next second... Liguang's movements stopped again.

She slowly raised her head.

On that breathtakingly beautiful face, tear stains and red impact marks intertwined, making her look wretched and pitiful.

But those eyes—

The amber left eye was hollow and unfocused, while the crimson right eye...

The data streams inside had completely devolved into a violent, chaotic storm of color blocks!

Scarlet, indigo, sickly green, ghastly white... all sorts of colors flashed, collided, and exploded madly!

The cracks in her pupil spread outward as if they were alive!

They even crawled onto the pale skin at the corner of her eye and across her face, forming bizarre, cobweb-like patterns!

Bzzzzt—!!!!

An ear-piercing crackle of electricity suddenly erupted from all over her body, sounding like the final wail of overloaded components and collapsing circuits!

But this time... she didn't pounce on him.

She merely looked at Fang Qi, the corners of her mouth inching... upwards.

Stretching into... an extremely twisted smile that looked worse than crying!

"Mas... ter..."
