Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 937: Chapter 444: Part 2

Perhaps the previous heavy blow caused damage to the lumbar spine, her legs have already lost feeling.

Now, walking is entirely dependent on her ability to hypnotize her body, making herself move like a marionette.

Mixing lake water with blood water, she eats the candy.

Cheese tries hard to identify the direction, moving towards a certain location in her memory.

A team had discovered a hidden cave at the bottom of the lake before the incident happened.

Perhaps she could hide from her pursuers there and find an opportunity to escape to the surface.

If she can still hold on….

‘Has my… Dark Vision… failed?’ Cheese tries hard to look around, and for some reason, she feels her vision becoming increasingly dim.

At the same time, her thoughts are scattering.

If it was the Doll, it wouldn’t be so embarrassing. Her combat power is so strong; if she shouted, ‘I must take him away today, let’s see who dares to stop me!’ probably no one would really dare to stop her.

If it was the Little Mad King, it would probably also be very easy. As the strongest Assassin Master in No.3 Border City, escaping the encirclement with someone would be quite simple, right? He might even write a few ‘correct’ characters on the face of the pursuers before leaving.

Cheese distracts herself with random thoughts.

After an unknown amount of time, she finally sees the destination.

Dragging her heavy legs, she enters the cave at the bottom of the lake.

The moment she leaves the underwater buoyancy, her legs can no longer support the weight of the two, and she falls heavily with Li Ye to the ground.

The impact brings an even more intense pain from her wound, causing her to let out a painful moan.

Several seconds later, she finally gathers the strength to move next to Li Ye.

She’s severely injured, her vertebrae damaged, her legs unable to move, and her left arm bitten off. She can only utilize her shoulder and chin to move on the ground.

She drags Li Ye for more than ten meters into the cave but ultimately runs out of strength.

Falling next to him, she breathes heavily with effort.

Can’t escape…. She sighs regretfully.

She has already sensed the spiritual energy fluctuations of extraordinary creatures and other strong individuals outside the cave.

They are approaching quickly without any concealment.

Obviously, they’ve already pinpointed her location.

“Very troublesome indeed…”

Cheese reaches into Li Ye’s arms and quickly draws out a cloth bag.

After taking out the candy from the bag.

She speaks again, an ancient language spoken through her pale lips.

“Spirit Language·Mud Swamp!”

Cheese draws a small amount of spiritual energy from the Soul Well and uses Mud Swamp at the cave entrance.

The entrance softens instantly and gradually closes, completely sealing off the entrance.

Cheese knows that this method can’t obstruct the pursuers for long.

If she were unscathed, her spiritual energy reserve full, perhaps she could even attempt to withdraw through the intricate cave topography or set traps.

But now, she’s completely exhausted.

Swallowing the candy, Cheese notices the candy flavor this time…. is quite stimulating.

The candy brings a spicy sensation that makes Cheese, with her originally foggy consciousness, revive a bit.

‘Is it spoiled?’ she wonders, and using her Dark Vision, she sees… chili powder on the candy?

She pauses for a moment, understanding the reason.

Haha… the Doll, huh?

You’re really naughty…

I haven’t even done anything to him yet, and you’re already retaliating against me.

Should I do something I ought to do, so we can be even?

Cheese wants to laugh but can’t due to the pain.

The destruction of her backpack causes the loss of her candy reserve, along with some Extraordinary Medicine.

Originally, Cheese planned to take Li Ye to a safe place to treat his injuries. Then, perhaps find an opportunity…

In the end, she couldn’t save anyone.

Both their injuries are too severe…

Cheese struggles to move her body, checking the already torn backpack. The pharmaceuticals within are indeed damaged and lost.

Inside the backpack, only the Champion Cloak remains tucked in the deepest part.

This brings her despair; although Li Ye can self-heal, he is still unconscious and unable to activate the Eternal Chosen Face.

Cheese’s hypnosis also can’t allow him to activate the Face himself.

‘Listen to me; take out the Holy Healing Potion from the Reserve Space.’

Cheese eats another piece of spicy candy, and activates her ability.

Li Ye’s fingers tremble slightly, but no other movements occur.

‘Listen to me, activate the Eternal Chosen Face!’

Cheese used her ability once more, Li Ye’s hand lifted, brushing across his own cheek, but there was no change.

Just performed the corresponding motion.

“So, indeed, we are to end it together…” Feeling Li Ye’s heartbeat gradually slowing, Cheese whispered.

She truly had no strength left, her voice was faint, almost inaudible.

But soon, Cheese saw the Champion Cloak moving without wind.

Cheese was surprised internally, but found it hard to react.

From the moment they entered the cave, her state had worsened.

Severe blood loss, internal organ damage, missing arm… all pulling her toward death. Her pupils were dilating, her skin devoid of any color.

Even… due to the severe injury on her back, Cheese felt a hopelessly nauseating sensation of warmth spreading from her lower body.

‘What an ugly death…’ Cheese was in excruciating pain.

Even if the cloak came alive before her, she no longer had the strength to react.

Yet, there was still a glimmer in her eyes.

The cloak moved as if possessed, revealing the items it enveloped.

It was a special tube-like metal case, with extremely tough material due to the preciousness of its content…

It was the Holy Healing Potion that Li Ye gave her…

In the chaos, the Champion Cloak protected the Holy Healing Potion!

Cheese extended her trembling arm, used her last ounce of strength, and opened the case.

She saw the golden potion…

This was definitely a life-saving medication!

No matter the injury, all could be repaired in a short time.

It was said that even at the Yama Palace, one could slap King Yan and take someone away.

Cheese’s injuries were extremely severe now, but if she used this potion, she could immediately spring back to life.

However, Cheese hadn’t had a chance to do anything.

Intense tremors came from the sealed cave entrance; pursuers, or Extraordinary Creatures… were attacking the cave.

At that moment, Cheese’s right hand was holding the Holy Healing Potion, the sudden vibration caused Li Ye, who was leaning beside Cheese, to roll three meters away.

Meanwhile, debris fell from the cave ceiling.

“Idiots, stop!”

“Do you want to kill our entire clan?”

“Block those Abyss Dragons outside, don’t let them come over!”

Human voices came from outside the gouged cave entrance.

After that, the tremors reduced significantly.

However, eerie sounds came from within the rubble.

Those were sounds of clothing rubbing against stones, skin being torn on the ground, and the last wailing of a girl approaching her beloved!

In the darkness, Cheese with her last bit of strength approached Li Ye, dragging a trail of blood on the ground.

She lifted the potion, and it fell…

“We won’t end it together after all…” The girl whispered in Li Ye’s ear, her voice barely audible: “Don’t look… my appearance… will be ugly…”

At least, maintain a beautiful image… rather than this broken, stinking visage.

Her consciousness gradually faded…

Seconds later, a light sphere flew into the cave entrance.

Illuminating the dark cave.

Several Spiritual Ability Users flooded in through the cave entrance.

What met their eyes were the two figures embracing amidst the rubble.

“We’ve found the Champion Agent!” an officer exclaimed with joy.

“Great! Quickly take him away!” Qing Jiao City Lord said swiftly.

“City Lord, that girl seems to have no breath left. Moreover… she probably can’t be part of your collection anymore.” An officer approached the two figures.

Qing Jiao City Lord glanced at the short-haired girl among them, feeling a pang of regret.

Such a beautiful girl, with a figure so captivating.

Even with a damaged body, she still revealed a beautiful profile. Her soaked sweatshirt outlined her exquisite form.

But… she was already broken. Moreover, some kind of stench was emanating…

“Then, cut off her head, I don’t want to return empty-handed.” Qing Jiao City Lord commanded.

“Yes.” Several officers responded as they stepped forward.

Then… they fell heavily to the ground.
