YM778.TV Chapter 317: Massacre induced by a smelly fart
[collapse]
There were invisible bodies circling over Dragon Mountain Valley, invisible monsters which were impossible to detect through their auras or sounds. There was not only one or two of these monsters, but hundreds or even thousands. The seemingly clear sky was actually filled with dense monsters swimming through the air. One could not see them, hear them, or even sense their existence.
When you let your guard down, thinking you were safe, they could very suddenly bite off your head, tearing you limb from limb, causing your tragic death in an unsuspecting manner.
Such an invisible terror was chilling to the heart if one thought about it slightly.
However, the rookies in front of Shi Xiaobai did not know they were in the midst of such horrors. The rookies who had their heads bitten off or even torn apart did not know the tragic outcomes they had experienced in another timeline.
And in this timeline, without everything reset by the Absolute Choice, they could still talk and laugh, deriding how Dragon Mountain Valley did not have dragons, or discuss how gloomy and eerie the valley was, or chat about the impressive punch of Shi Xiaobai from before.
The tragedy had yet to befall, but it was imminent.
And the only person who knew of all this was Shi Xiaobai alone. He had to bear the heavy burden of saving them.
But how was he to save them?
Shi Xiaobai was somewhat at a loss this time. He could brainlessly use his sword techniques to attack the sky in an enveloping fashion. Even if they were invisible monsters, he was still able to kill them, but he would not be able to perfectly protect every rookie. As there were too many monsters, they could attack any person in an unpredictable manner.
Shi Xiaobai’s heart was feeling somewhat heavy, as though he was completely helpless.
However, he could not abandon pondering over the matter because of this.
Suddenly, Shi Xiaobai thought of a questionable problem.
Why did a monster suddenly attack the beheaded rookie only when the rookies were beginning to leave in the dozens, despite there being so many monsters above the valley?
The second time, it was only when the rookies began attacking the sky did they start attacking the rookies after being injured.
Logically speaking, with so many invisible monsters present, it was impossible for the rookies to withstand them if they had taken the initiative to attack as a whole.
Yet, the monsters did not do so. From a certain point of view, their attacks were a result of provocation.
In that case, could these monsters be mild in nature and would not take the initiative to attack the rookies?
However, from the actions of them biting off the rookies’ heads, they were likely brutal carnivores?
“What is going on?”
Shi Xiaobai was feeling perplexed, but his eyes gradually lit up. If he could not crack the puzzle, he might be able to do so in an opportunistic manner.
“Why did these carnivores that had the absolute advantage not take the initiative to attack in a group? Was it because they were gentle by nature despite being carnivorous? Or were they waiting for an opportunity? Or did they lack cohesion?”
Shi Xiaobai muttered to himself. Due to his heavy heart, he had accidentally verbalized the questions in his mind. However, it was extremely soft, nearly silent.
However, there was a person constantly standing beside Shi Xiaobai. She had heard him utter those words to himself.
“Or…they are dreading something, resulting in them lacking the courage to act.”
Ka Xiaozi’s gentle voice reached Shi Xiaobai’s ears.
This sentence was like the sudden sparkling of a star in the darkness.
Shi Xiaobai ruminated over the words as his eyes slowly lit up.
“Dread.”
Shi Xiaobai softly said the word as a smile slowly suffused across his lips.
The word ‘dread’ immediately solved the biggest question on Shi Xiaobai’s mind.
Why were hundreds of invisible monsters, which clearly had the absolute advantage, not attacking until they were injured, an attack that was a result of rage.
Why did the group of monsters pick the rookies in the periphery first when they counterattacked? Whereas Ka Xiaozi and he were not attacked by any monster despite them being separated from the crowd as stragglers.
The two questions could only be answered by the word ‘dread’!
Were the monsters dreading him, or dreading…
Shi Xiaobai turned his head to look at the girl beside him. She had long pink hair that were tied into two ponytails. She looked young and beautiful. Her eyes were large and bright, filled with vibrance. Her delicate facial features and petite body resembled that of a truly beautiful pixie.
The monsters did not dare to attack even when they were injured and infuriated. They had not attacked the separated duo, either because they were dreading him or dreading Ka Xiaozi.
A more reasonable explanation would be that the power of his one punch had frightened the monsters.
However, Shi Xiaobai had a baffling feeling. He felt that the monsters were dreading the girl beside him.
Shi Xiaobai gave Ka Xiaozi a meaningful glance before whispering, “Thank you.”
Ka Xiaozi blinked and said with a laugh, “I don’t remember doing anything that is worthy of being thanked for.”
Shi Xiaobai did not explain, but he knew how important were those words Ka Xiaozi had said.
“Then, next there is only one question remaining.”
Shi Xiaobai continued lowering his head in thought.
If the monsters were dreading him or Ka Xiaozi, why would a monster suddenly attack that rookie out of the blue?
“It seems like that is the only resort.”
…
What was ‘that’?
Five words—reconstruction of the crime scene!
Shi Xiaobai repeated his actions from the past two timelines. The plot repeated just as the previous two timelines as the rookies began retreating out of the valley, with more than ten people quickly leaving.
The rookie who was about to be beheaded was still chatting with the girl beside him. In about three seconds, the tragedy was about to happen.
Shi Xiaobai suddenly rushed forward at a very fast speed. He tried his best to suppress the sounds he produced as he held his breath.
He had arrived less than three meters behind the rookie in an instant.
He wanted to see what had happened at that very instant up close. He wanted to know what the rookie did or said that resulted in the monster’s sudden attack on him.
Then, Shi Xiaobai heard a loud sound.
“Pu!”
That was the sound of a fart that could be clearly heard several meters away!
Following that, a foul stench assaulted his olfactory senses!
Shi Xiaobai was caught off guard as he was immediately left dumbfounded.
At the moment he was dumbfounded, the rookie’s head had once again been bitten off by the monster. Blood spewed as the surrounding rookies began screaming. At the same time, many rookies were covering their noses and mouths.
During his first observation, Shi Xiaobai had the impression that these people were covering their noses and mouths because they could not stand the smell of blood.
It turned out it was because they could not stand the stench of the fart!
Shi Xiaobai turned around in silence. He was somewhat disappointed that he had failed to save the rookie because of the fart that shocked him.
However, he was feeling somewhat helpless.
He had originally believed that the rookie had done something earth-shattering or said something astounding or blasphemous, which left the dreaded monster no choice but to attack him.
He never expected that it was because of the rookie farting. The monster probably thought that it had been attacked by toxic gases and could not endure any further.
It was a massacre induced by a smelly fart.
What else could Shi Xiaobai say?
…
“Make your choice, youth!”
When Shi Xiaobai heard the familiar voice, saw the familiar scene and familiar black text, he felt somewhat depressed.
This was the fourth time he was making this choice.
It was also the first time he encountered failure with the Absolute Choice for three consecutive times. In the past, he could complete the Absolute Choice within three tries.
And this time, it was an exception. What was most fucked up was that the reason why he failed three times was because of a smelly fart!
A smelly fart…
Can you imagine how gloomy Shi Xiaobai was feeling at that moment in time?
However, despite feeling gloomy, Shi Xiaobai was also greatly relieved. If his guess was right, everyone could safely leave the valley as long as nothing out of bounds was done.
Shi Xiaobai picked the choice [ Save all rookies in Dragon Mountain Valley ] for a fourth time.
Halted time flowed once again.
Shi Xiaobai immediately shouted to everyone, “Everyone, leave the valley as fast as possible! There’s no time. This King will explain it to all of you once we are out of the valley!”
Shi Xiaobai faked a worried look. Although the crowd found it dubious when they heard this, they immediately believed that Shi Xiaobai had discovered a danger that could not be explained in time. They chose to rush to the valley’s exit due to Shi Xiaobai’s esteemed reputation.
There was no time to explain. Run!
Thankfully, the exit to the valley was large enough, and it did not seem overly crowded when the crowd rushed out.
Shi Xiaobai loudly said, “Note, do not fart!”
The evacuating crowd was immediately dumbfounded.
However, Shi Xiaobai’s voice immediately resounded once again.
“Do not fart!”
“Do not fart!”
He repeated the important things thrice!
The rookies were filled with doubts, but seeing Shi Xiaobai appearing so serious, they could only put the extremely absurd demand at heart.
With so many people around, farting was something that required courage to begin with.
Shi Xiaobai urged the crowd to speed up. The rookies did not dare to delay as they quickly retreated out the valley. Very soon, more than half had been evacuated.
Shi Xiaobai turned his head to Ka Xiaozi and said, “Let’s go as well.”
Ka Xiaozi nodded with a smile. Clearly, she could not help but laugh due to Shi Xiaobai’s “Do not fart”.
The two stayed behind the group and walked forward at an appropriate speed.
Shi Xiaobai turned slightly cautious. A guess was after all a guess. In practice, there might be unexpected accidents, so Shi Xiaobai did not dare to relax.
Only after all the rookies had left the valley safely did Shi Xiaobai feel slightly relieved when he and Ka Xiaozi arrived at the exit of the valley.
He turned his head and glanced at the empty valley, hesitant if he should leave.
Even though time had reset, the bloody scenes were still fresh on his mind. Shi Xiaobai’s anger could not be appeased if he did not kill the monsters. And now, with all the rookies safely evacuated, he could kill with impunity.
“Forget it, This King will spare you for the time being. Once the choice is over, This King will come back for revenge.”
With this thought in mind, he walked out of the valley together with Ka Xiaozi.
Outside the valley, the rookies were waiting for Shi Xiaobai to come out. At this moment, they were pinching their noses, grumbling how smelly it was.
The moment Shi Xiaobai appeared, the rookie that was previously beheaded gave an embarrassed smile and said, “Sorry, I couldn’t resist it.”
Even though Shi Xiaobai had emphasized three times for him not to fart, the rookie had still farted. It appeared as though he had held his fart in for a very long time.
But thankfully, this was done outside the valley.
Shi Xiaobai found it somewhat amusing. He had nearly suffered because of a stinky fart.
Shi Xiaobai gradually relaxed. With everyone evacuated from the terrifying valley, they should be in a safe situation.
At this moment, the fiery voice resounded in his mind.
“Make your choice, youth!”
Shi Xiaobai jumped in fright as his mind went into a trance.
The scene before his eyes had suddenly returned to the scene when everyone was inside the valley. Time was halted, and the three choices had materialized in front of Shi Xiaobai just as before.
Shi Xiaobai was truly confounded this time.
Time wound back, indicating that he had failed once again.
But this time, Shi Xiaobai did not know why he had failed. The rookies had clearly been evacuated from the valley, so why was there still someone dying?
Furthermore, the person had died without him even knowing how.
Who died?
Why did that person die?
How did that person die?
Shi Xiaobai was completely clueless this time.
“Make your choice, youth!”
The fiery voice constantly resounded in his mind, as though it was telling Shi Xiaobai that everything was yet to come to an end. No, it was just the beginning of everything.
