Chapter 1120 - 500: Since the Tide Cannot Be Defied, Make a Compliant Ass for It!
As everyone knows, of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, the best one is to flee.Though it’s unclear why after so many years the second volume hasn’t been released, clearly Sun Tzu is also the kind of author who quits midway, but the first volume alone is enough for Lin Li.
Indeed, there’s no reason to linger here any longer.
The tasks given by the system are complete, and Lin Li’s desire to explore the Doomsday World isn’t particularly intense.
Most importantly, there is danger present, and Lin Li doesn’t want to take risks.
Just like the bullets in the Invisible Man’s hands, armed with hot weapons, they could cause injuries to him.
The "Hardening" ability can, like before, prevent bullets from penetrating the body, leaving only a mark, but relying solely on Hardening can’t remove all harm. Actually, Lin Li is somewhat worried that although there’s just a bullet mark on his leg, there might be unseen damage underneath.
Furthermore, if Lin Li applied high-intensity Hardening to the whole body, the consumption would be quite substantial, and couldn’t be sustained for very long.
He does have a resurrection armor and pills that restore health after severe injury, so even if he were truly hurt or killed, he wouldn’t panic, but the system hasn’t issued follow-up tasks; it doesn’t require him to do anything specific, so why waste items worth hundreds of system currency here.
Currently, Lin Li is completely unaware of how many Awakened are here, the extent of their awakening, or their direction.
It’s essentially a battle where both the enemy and myself are in the dark, and whether victory is possible is unclear.
An A+ Mecha ought to be overpowered in the apocalypse, but its "transformation" doesn’t have invincibility frames.
What if he’s shot down like a showerhead when inhaling into the cabin?
Would using "Solid as a Rock" slow down the time he’s inhaled?
If bullets or explosives attacked the gel-like objects in the cockpit from the inside, would it cause irreparable damage?
There’s too much uncertainty.
Lin Li only ignores risks when accessing websites and installing software, unlike the current situation.
So, time to quickly flee.
Slacking off feels good for a moment; always slacking off feels even better.
Ladies and gentlemen, those who dare to run away are the bravest people, because such people don’t fear being called cowardly, so the smaller the courage, the bigger the courage; the bigger the courage, the smaller the courage!
Lin Li, Win!
"Everyone, farewell."
Under Lin Li’s will, the mist emitted by the "Dust Barrier of the Two Forms" began to swiftly gather towards him, and when it completely gathered into his hands, he bade farewell with a smile to the people in the room.
"No! He’s going to escape!!"
Little Green suddenly realized what Lin Li was about to do, acting quickly, he successfully grabbed some eye drops to ease his ocular condition!
Just kidding.
He had no eye condition, nor eye drops.
He accomplished nothing, nor did he have a master ball; Lin Li’s health wasn’t low enough, how could anyone stop Lin Li’s escape, only able to watch as Lin Li disappeared before his eyes, leaving chaos behind.
...
A white flash passed by, and the scene before him changed back to the familiar bathroom.
Lin Li immediately sat down, took off his pants, and examined the wound that likely came from a "transparent bullet".
Tsk, that fellow can make even the milk powder clinging to his body gradually invisible. Clearly, this opponent isn’t just the lower-grade Android Invisible type who must use the ability naked; it’s estimated he can gradually assimilate surrounding objects and make them invisible together - a higher-grade Apple Invisibility.
Like the Invisible Man from "The Boys", who can only hide his body and needs to be half-naked all the time. If he didn’t have an indestructible ability in the world view, he’d rank nowhere.
This is purely Android Invisibility.
Of course, if the system is willing to gift him such an ability, Lin Li wouldn’t mind, he’s not picky.
Regarding the wound, the bullet didn’t break the skin, but there was already bruising beneath, with a faint pain.
Without hesitation, activating "Healing", Lin Li placed his hand over the two bullet wound areas on his body.
"Healing" is a growth-type ability; initially, he couldn’t even resolve bruises in one go, but as his strength increased, though still far from Nangong Wenya’s level, at least some small to medium external wounds could be healed within ten seconds.
Moreover, with the "Power Storage" effect still active, using "Healing" with his right hand doubled its effectiveness.
"There shouldn’t be any bone fractures or cracks, right?" Lin Li clicked his tongue as he looked at the bruise that had completely dissipated after letting go.
It’s possible that just Hardening resulted in internal injuries, Lin Li figured.
According to folklore, Sun Wukong was pressed for five hundred years because he fractured 1825 people when he caused havoc in heaven.
After standing and moving around a bit, it was fine, just a slight discomfort, but only small.
It seems the injury hasn’t been completely healed yet, but what remains isn’t serious.
Firearms are still not to be underestimated.
But it’s considered an experiment; the current Lin Li, under the boost of abilities, physical strength buff, and cultivation, really has the capability to withstand regular bullets head-on, which even Lin Li finds a bit exciting.
The people from the "Lighthouse" probably don’t have a definitive intent to kill him; they really want to cripple him and then detain him for questioning. Perhaps if he explained that crossing dimensions brings resources, they’d have their so-called "Healer" completely heal him.
But still, it’s unnecessary.
Who knows if they’d intentionally leave him half-healed, as a person neither dead nor alive is easiest to interrogate.
