Chapter 252 - Double Strike
Hearing this, Ye Sheng immediately felt relieved and no longer tried to stop her.
As Gu Luoyu had said, she stood her ground, not even putting Ye Sheng down from her arms, directly mobilizing her psychic power. Just as the green slime was about to swallow the dark monster again, she seized the moment to launch an attack.
The dark psychic power transformed into long chains, instantly wrapping around the green slime several times in the blink of an eye.
As soon as the dark chains came into contact with the corrosive green 'jelly', they made a sizzling sound, but unlike the dark monster, they were not quickly decomposed. Instead, they withstood this wave of venomous attack.
Unlike living beings, psychic power can be continuously replenished, especially when not engaged in direct combat. Gu Luoyu could absorb energy from the energy stones while increasing the output of her psychic power.
Moreover, Ye Sheng, whom she held in her arms, could soothe her psychic power, alleviating the fatigue and pain caused by excessive consumption of psychic power, acting almost like a cheat device.
In this situation, the effect was not just 1 + 1, but 1 + N!
The chances of defeating the green slime were greatly increased.
Afterwards, as the dark chains continued to tighten, the green slime let out a cry of unwillingness, though its cry was rather strange, similar to the sound of bubbles popping in water, amplified a hundred times.
Even with several layers of psychic barriers as protection and at a distance, the sound still stung Ye Sheng's eardrums. She couldn't believe what would happen if they were at an extremely close distance, fearing they might be killed by the sound waves.
While Ye Sheng's mind was wandering, Gu Luoyu was keeping an eye on everything, dealing with the green slime while noticing that the dark monster, in its weakened state, was gradually losing its vitality. She immediately made a decisive move.
Directly splitting a strand of psychic power into a blade, she pierced the dark monster's heart, successfully completing a 'heroic feat' of snatching food from the tiger's mouth!
However, successfully stealing the first blood came at a cost. Gu Luoyu endured the surging blood in her chest, a sweet taste in her throat, and then forcefully swallowed the blood.
Instead of showing weakness due to injury, her red eyes flickered with madness.
She lightly curled her lips, then put Ye Sheng down from her arms and said, “Xiao Sheng, I've already killed that dark monster. You can summon the light spheres now, and I'll continue dealing with the green monster.”
“Mmm.”
Unaware that Gu Luoyu's fighting spirit had been ignited, Ye Sheng nodded. Seeing that Gu Luoyu obediently stayed by her side, she had already felt at ease. After all, it was just a long-range attack and wouldn't cause serious harm.
The joy of success intercepting the spoils midway made Ye Sheng's eyes curve into a smile. She waved her hand towards the dark monster's corpse, and several dark light spheres immediately flew out, quickly heading towards them.
As Ye Sheng eagerly prepared to draw items from the light spheres, the smile on Gu Luoyu's lips quietly disappeared at some point. Her red eyes were fixed on the green slime still bound by the psychic chains, silently sensing the psychic power that could be broken and dissolved at any moment.
This time, Gu Luoyu did not choose to continue replenishing her psychic power to keep the chains restraining the green slime. Instead, she increased the output of her psychic power all at once, and hundreds of dark dots flashed under the green slime's feet.
In the next second, dense dark spikes quickly broke through the ground, accurately piercing the green slime's body.
Then, controlled by Gu Luoyu, the dark spikes wriggled as if they had come to life, able to lengthen and shorten. The dark psychic power, which always liked to devour the hearts of polluted creatures, was like a shark smelling blood in the sea.
It found the heart within the green slime.
The nearly transparent heart, wrapped in green jelly, could not be discovered even with a pair of extremely sharp eyes, unless the green slime was dissected and carefully searched for, only then might there be a chance to find it.
But unfortunately, the green slime today encountered Gu Luoyu, and after her psychic power had mutated.
The dense dark spikes continuously attacked, causing the green slime to fall into pain. It wanted to leave this area full of spikes, but it had not broken free from the chains wrapped around its body, so it could only remain in place, helplessly furious.
Meanwhile, the dark psychic power, in continuous probing, numbed the green slime's attention. The spikes gradually approached the position of the heart, and in the next second, one of the spikes suddenly erupted, quickly extending and piercing the nearly transparent heart.
The green slime's movements halted, and before it could let out a piercing sound, the dark psychic power, like a drooling vicious dog, directly devoured the heart.
After losing its heart, the green slime immediately lost its life, and its jelly-like body scattered at this moment, like a basin of water being poured out, dyeing the surrounding area in a special shade of green.
“Wow!!!”
Ye Sheng had originally intended to endure and wait until Gu Luoyu had dealt with the green slime before opening the items in the light spheres... but she didn't expect the battle to end so quickly!
It felt like only a few minutes had passed, and they had already achieved the feat of a double strike!
Indeed, her Ah Yu was truly amazing.
In addition, the 'corpse' of the green slime also gave Ye Sheng a surprise. Several green light spheres quietly stayed on the green-stained ground, and as Ye Sheng waved her hand, they immediately flew over happily.
It seemed that once you entered the amusement city, once you died, you would drop equipment!
So, if they were killed, would they also drop colorful light spheres?
Ye Sheng's thoughts wandered, and she finally looked up at Gu Luoyu, only to see that the person who had previously had a rosy complexion was now pale, with cold sweat covering her temples. Although she still stood steady, her arms were trembling uncontrollably in small movements.
Her beautiful face had gained several dark lines, and her red eyes had turned as dark as a deep pool.
She had overexerted her psychic power.
Ye Sheng immediately stopped smiling, frowned, and the corners of her mouth drooped, with angry flames burning in her dark eyes!
Alright!
She had wondered why Gu Luoyu was so obedient, playing a long-range attack like this. If it were a close fight, she would be missing arms and legs by now!!!
Perhaps because she had overexerted her psychic power several times, or because her psychic power had strengthened compared to before, Gu Luoyu did not lose her sanity as she had initially, becoming a bloodthirsty killing maniac.
But she was only slightly better than before.
Now, Gu Luoyu, who still retains her sanity, saw that Ye Sheng was angry. She slowly tilted her head, then, following her intuition, reached out a hand to touch Ye Sheng, full of a pleading gesture.
However, Ye Sheng, in her angry state, was not going to fall for it!
She glared with wide dark eyes, gritting her teeth as she said, “Don't think you can fool me, Gu Luoyu. I'm angry, the kind that can't be soothed, and your attempts to please me now won't…”
Before Ye Sheng could finish her sentence, Gu Luoyu seized the opportunity, lowering her head to block the words with a kiss.
Only leaving behind the ambiguous sound of a light hum.
