The shotgun roared, and steel pellets rained down on the female ghost.
The female ghost sneered.
With a wave of her slender hand, several thick vines instantly intertwined in front of her to form a solid plant wall, blocking all the steel balls.
【Jingle Bells】
The steel ball fell limply to the ground.
At the same time, the female ghost's originally slender arms suddenly stretched out and mutated, turning into two dark green tentacles covered with barbs, which struck Jill like lightning!
The speed is amazing!
Jill's pupils contracted; she had no time to dodge!
Holy crap! They even have this kind of thing?
Zhou Ye's voice rang out.
Just as the tentacle was about to strike Jill, Zhou Ye moved.
He made a grasping motion with his left hand, and a blue stream of data flashed by. [Herrscher of Reason Fragment] Activated!
A huge, extremely cartoonish red button appeared out of thin air on his right: [Talking Tom Fragment] Activated!
He slammed the button!
【Biu~】
A massive flamethrower, with an exaggerated design that blends industrial punk and cartoon styles, appeared out of thin air in front of him, its muzzle pointed at the wildly dancing carnivorous plants.
"Die to me!"
Zhou Ye pulled the trigger.
call--!
The blazing orange-red flames erupted in a fan shape! The intense heat instantly ignited the air!
When those menacing carnivorous plants came into contact with the flames, they immediately sizzled and burned, quickly withering and carbonizing.
Flames are the natural enemy of plants, and even more so the nemesis of these strange plants!
The vine cage surrounding Saeko Busujima was licked by flames and collapsed with a roar.
Saeko seized the opportunity to escape, taking a few steps back to create distance. Her breathing was slightly rapid, but her eyes remained cold.
"what--!"
The plant-manipulating ghoul let out a piercing scream, and the flames also posed a threat to her. She had to abandon her attack on Jill, her body blurring as she leaped backward, trying to escape the range of the flames.
She had only jumped a few steps, and hadn't even landed properly yet.
"It's now!"
Nami's clear voice rang out.
She had moved to the side at some point, and the intricate [magic circuits] on her right arm glowed red.
She threw several glittering gems toward the ghost's predicted landing point.
The gem traced an arc in the air, and the moment it landed, several magical runes appeared on the ground, forming a temporary binding array!
【Gem Magic: Binding Trap】!
Chains of light shot out from the magic circle and precisely wrapped around the female ghost who had just landed!
"what?!"
Caught off guard, the female ghost was firmly bound by the chains of light and unable to move.
What she wanted to say might have been a threat, or it might have been a plea for mercy.
But Zhou Ye didn't give her that chance.
"It's not over yet!"
Zhou Ye roared and aimed the torrent of flames from the flamethrower at the bound female ghost, spraying it fiercely!
The raging flames instantly engulfed the female ghost!
"Blood Demon Art: Vines Protection!"
In the moment of crisis, a resolute glint flashed in the female ghost's eyes.
She decisively abandoned them, and her bound hands suddenly exploded, transforming into countless thick and tough vines that grew and intertwined wildly, forming a huge, constantly writhing vine ball around her body, protecting her core.
The vines emitted a mournful cry amidst the flames, like the agonizing screams of a creature on its deathbed.
The outer vines are constantly burned to charcoal and peeled off, while the inner vines continue to grow to resist.
Zhou Ye frowned; this thing was so hard!
and……
He felt the flamethrower becoming lighter and the flames weakening.
[WARNING: Talking Tom's Super Flamethrower is running out of fuel!]
A notification sounded in my mind.
"Damn it! It messed up at the crucial moment!"
Zhou Ye cursed under his breath.
The items from Herrscher of Reason and Talking Tom are definitely more for entertainment than practical use!
It must be resolved quickly!
He had a thought.
A large, dark green cylindrical object appeared out of thin air in front of Jill.
RPG-7 rocket launcher!
"Jill! Use this!"
Zhou Ye roared, his voice distorted by the roar of the flames.
Jill stared blankly at the suddenly appearing RPG-7 rocket launcher for a moment, not even bothering to ask where it came from, and immediately realized what was happening. She dropped her empty shotgun, grabbed the RPG, expertly slung it over her shoulder, and activated the sights.
She looked at the female ghost enveloped in flames and vines, then at Zhou Ye, who was right in the path of the flames.
"But……"
"Launch now!"
Zhou Ye's voice was filled with unprecedented urgency. "Don't worry about me! Otherwise, she'll run away when the flamethrower fuel runs out!"
His arms trembled slightly from the continued recoil of the flamethrower.
Fuel is running low!
If the fire continues to burn, the female ghost might actually be able to withstand it through her blood demon magic!
Jill gritted her teeth and made no further hesitation.
She took a deep breath and placed her finger on the RPG's fire button.
Aim, now!
boom!
A deafening roar shook the entire restaurant!
The shockwave swept through, sending limbs and broken vines flying everywhere!
The RPG rocket pierced through Zhou Ye's fiery path and struck the writhing vine ball precisely! The violent explosion instantly tore the female ghost's vine shield to shreds, while simultaneously unleashing a powerful shockwave!
Before the explosion, Zhou Ye used his spatial abilities to construct a temporary spatial barrier. Because it was the first time he had constructed it, the shield was not strong enough. He was blown away by the blast wave and his back hit the restaurant wall. Before the impact, he also set up a soft spatial barrier as a buffer. The flamethrower also disintegrated and disappeared into light spots.
Amidst the smoke of the explosion, a piercing scream pierced the sky.
You bastards! You bunch of bastards!
As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, the female ghost's disheveled figure was revealed. Half of her body had been blown to pieces, and one arm was completely missing. Strangely, no blood flowed from the wound; instead, black mist continuously emerged.
She stood up unsteadily, her bloodshot eyes filled with resentment.
You think you can kill me like this? How ridiculous!
Her body began to writhe and reorganize strangely, and new tissue was slowly growing at the site of her severed arm!
Blood Demon Art: Wildflowers in Full Bloom!
The ground suddenly burst open, and dozens of thick vines burst out of the soil. Each vine had a blood-red flower bud at its tip, and sharp teeth could be faintly seen inside the bud!
They swayed from side to side like snake heads, aiming at the four people inside.
Keep fighting! If I can't kill one of you, you won't live either!
The female ghost grinned maliciously, and her speech, fueled by anger and murderous intent, became fluent and no longer stuttered.
Saeko Busujima narrowed her eyes, and the blade was drawn again, ready to strike.
"No, it's over." Zhou Ye's voice rang out, its calmness somewhat eerie.
He looked at the female ghost struggling to fight back.
"Watch your feet."
The female ghost was taken aback.
She instinctively lowered her head.
On the ground where she had just been bound and was now struggling to stand, there were several flat metal discs with funny cat heads painted on them, scattered about at some point.
The discs were flashing faint blue indicator lights.
[Talking Tom Special Edition Cat Head Ultraviolet Mine]
The female ghost's pupils suddenly contracted.
She didn't recognize it.
But the aura emanating from it made her extremely uncomfortable and chilled to the bone, and she instantly realized the danger!
"This is an experimental ultraviolet landmine." Zhou Ye's voice echoed throughout the restaurant, drowning out the female ghost's panting. "Close your eyes!"
