Chapter 665: The Bloody Slime
Chapter 665: The Bloody Slime
This person... is rather polite?
Lindsey was still unsure of the true identity of the girl before him, but her politeness made it hard for him to dislike her.
"A Law Enforcement Knight? Of course not..."
Slap—
Before Lindsey could finish his sentence, he felt a sudden weight on his hand.
The Blood Sea Fishing Rod violently jerked in his grasp!
He turned his head to see what was happening.
In the crimson blood sea beside him, a blood-red, gelatinous tentacle emerged from the water's surface, lashing the fishing line towards him.
The attack was awe-inspiring.
The tentacle, emitting a putrid scarlet stench, seemed capable of killing a yak with a single strike!
But Lindsey was not angered; instead, he felt a different emotion.
—The Blood-Colored Maggot's probability effect had activated.
The Fish King had taken the bait!
"Get down!"
Almost simultaneously, Lindsey heard the girl's voice beside him.
Along with her shout, a sudden surge of Will Essence erupted!
Lindsey quickly averted his gaze and switched game modules.
He witnessed the girl, who had just regained consciousness, forcing herself to unleash a powerful willpower upon noticing a monster attacking from the lake, causing her body to forcefully rise from the ground.
In the blink of an eye, the girl had reached Lindsey's side.
This action left no room for other possibilities.
She intended to knock Lindsey away from his current position, saving the stranger before her from the impending attack!
"..."
What a kind person she was!
Watching the girl's actions, Lindsey's feelings became even more complex.
As the person who had rescued her from the Flesh Lake,
he was well aware of the severity of her physical condition and that her early awakening was solely due to her strong will.
Now, with the sudden surge of essence, she was determined to push him away from harm's way, even at the cost of her own life.
"Tsk—"
The girl's concerns while unconscious immediately vanished from Lindsey's mind.
Although the situation was critical,
Lindsey, having switched modules, activated his movement skill - Focused State.
In that instant,
time seemed to slow down before Lindsey's eyes.
He gazed into the girl's pupils, where amidst the polished gray sandstone, the tension and confusion of her recent awakening still lingered, but what dominated was her resolute and genuine desire to help.
Then, he examined her body.
Whether it was the hand supporting her body or the legs that propelled her jump, every muscle fiber trembled with intense pain.
"..."
"It's just a Fish King; dealing with it now is much simpler."
Lindsey had no intention of harming her.
He gently sidestepped, catching the girl's leaping body in his arms.
During this moment, Lindsey noticed a detail.
In the slowed-down world, the girl's pupils were precisely locked onto him, perceiving his every move, whether he dodged or caught her.
—A speed beyond imagination.
The girl, currently in a weakened state as a student of the middle school division of the Ferris School, couldn't respond.
If she were in her prime, she might have even caught up to Lindsey.
"..."
Lindsey silently noted this observation.
Then, aiming at the blood-red tentacle emerging from the water's surface, he gripped it tightly.
Slap!
With the slowed-down time, Lindsey seized the blood-colored tentacle and forcefully dragged it towards the shore.
Boom—
A massive hole was torn in the Flesh Lake,
and a blood-red creature, approximately three feet in diameter, was pulled out by Lindsey, slamming heavily onto the ground.
It was a peculiar creature, a slime-like being.
Its entire body emitted a nauseating, bloody stench, and most of its form consisted of blood-red, gelatinous matter, within which a black core could be vaguely seen.
"..."
Time's flow remained unaltered.
After Lindsay smashed the creature onto the ground, the impact flattened its body. Seizing the moment before it could regain its shape, Lindsay produced a spear from thin air.
"It's over."
The slowed time resumed its normal pace.
The spear shot out from Lindsay's hand, still entwined with spiraling high-temperature lava.
The bloody slime had not yet recovered its form.
Right in the center of its body, the high-temperature lava scorched and burned a wound.
As expected, the black core within its body was pierced.
The body, which had just attempted to attack, instantly went limp and eventually turned into a puddle of reddish mucus resembling bird's nest soup.
"Hmm? Ah!"
At that moment, a voice sounded from Lindsay's embrace.
He looked down and saw that the girl's gray eyes had slowly closed.
"You're so amazing, you should've told me earlier."
Lindsay paused, deep in thought. This time, instead of tossing the girl onto the ground, he crafted a bed on the workbench, laid her on it, and then administered a bottle of restorative potion.
"Righteous One."
"An obsessive who is absolutely convinced of their ideas and will, the root cause of the chaos in the City of Law."
Lindsay gazed at the unconscious girl for a while.
Over the past two years in the wasteland, he had gathered much information and was prepared to confront and even fight the Righteous Ones.
But encountering such a person made it hard to dislike them.
"Sigh..."
Lindsay let out a soft sigh.
He then moved to the side and started fishing for items in the sparse puddle of bloody mucus.
The Hunting Journal gradually displayed text.
