The Final Story of Miss Weird

Shouldn't it be that the mycelium extends out, absorbs the flesh and blood and replaces it, thus creating a strange creation?

Also...this dagger should be a sacrificial weapon, right?

She seems to be using it as a normal blade...

At this moment, the girl's figure obviously paused, but she quickly turned around again and attacked again silently.

If the girl was alone, her speed would indeed be impressive, but not to the point of being exaggerated, and she could still handle it.

Although he has some fighting skills, they are still a bit immature.

But the problem is...

Now they have to deal with more than just this girl.

The fungal strains in the distance seemed to be mocking them, and the continuously extending hyphae gradually eroded everyone's will.

Coupled with the girl's distraction, several team members were soon seriously injured.

Li Shaoheng tried to kill the girl first, and the flying blade cut her arm in an instant.

But without even blinking, the deep wound was completely healed.

"This is... an extremely exaggerated self-healing ability."

The next moment, Li Shaoheng's flying blade hit his neck, leaving a bloody mark and almost cutting his head.

"Ability Copy!"

Li Shaoheng widened his eyes slightly.

And it was a near-perfect copy...just like he was using it himself.

You know, the use of abilities cannot be accomplished overnight, especially a difficult ability like "shrinking".

It took Li Shaoheng at least ten years and countless battles for him to be able to wield flying blades as easily as his own arms.

More importantly...the flying blade was his sacrificial weapon, but just in the blink of an eye, it was forcibly used by the other party.

After this attack, Li Shaoheng immediately put away the flying blade, fearing that the opponent would use this trick again.

It's okay for him as long as he is alert, but his teammates...can't deal with the elusive flying blade.

"retreat!"

At this point, if the team continued to persist, it would only result in unnecessary sacrifices. Li Shaoheng quickly made up his mind.

With his spatial ability, he can still leave as long as he wants to.

Li Shaoheng acted decisively and used his ability of "Shrinkage" to move the entire team to the edge of the hatchery.

After the surrounding scenery changed, everyone instantly appeared in the same place where they had entered before.

Before Li Shaoheng could breathe a sigh of relief, the next moment, they were back deep into the hatchery.

The silver-white girl slightly raised her right hand, holding a strand of hair in her palm, and looked at everyone with a faint gaze.

"...Backtracking."

Li Shaoheng's face finally turned visibly pale.

This is an ability he will never forget even if he turns into ashes. He thought he would never see it again after scientists confirmed his death, but he didn't expect it to reappear in the hands of a mysterious girl.

After using the large-scale "contraction", Li Shaoheng fell into a brief period of exhaustion, and the people around him were caught off guard and surrounded by the surging mycelium again.

This time, they almost lost their ability to resist and were all trapped by the mycelium.

The greedy mycelium kept gnawing at the protective gear of everyone in the company. Even though they had taken protective measures against the mycelium parasitism before coming, and all exposed skin had been adequately protected, but... they were still unable to resist the continuous erosion of the mycelium.

The mission failed.

And...the whole team was wiped out.

...Everyone will die here.

More importantly, it is impossible to transmit even a little information.

The mysterious girl let go of the hair in her palm, and her beautiful long silver hair fluttered in the breeze, but no one was in the mood to appreciate this beautiful scene again.

Everywhere you look, you see looks of fear and despair.

Not far away, a huge fungus strain began to wriggle and leaned over slightly. Even without understanding its language, I could feel its greed and desire that broke through the frame.

There were eight upper-level awakeners present. After being completely devoured, the energy was almost equivalent to half of the hatchery.

The remaining instinctive fungal strains will never miss this opportunity. In the competition between "eggs", even a little energy may tip the balance, and it will never let another "egg" seize the initiative.

The silver-white girl slowly walked towards the people who were trapped by the mycelium. In the distance, several fungi were spreading towards them. This was already a deadly situation.

Unwilling to...

I'm afraid that I'll have to disappoint Senior Lu this time.

A hint of bitterness appeared at the corners of Li Shaoheng's mouth.

He watched the girl approach him, the fungus strain reaching out to him, and death looming before his eyes.

At this moment, a faint smile suddenly broke out on the girl's doll-like delicate and beautiful face, and the terrifying weirdness at this moment showed some "human" breath.

"Thank you, Mr. Li."

She said.

Luo Ling slowly raised the corners of his mouth.

In her vision, in front of her were several strange creatures whose bodies had been completely occupied by mycelium, and they were surrounded by majestic high-rise buildings.

But she knew that it was just an illusion, it was all fake.

"Puppet Rumor, you want to deceive me again, but it's impossible."

When he made a mistake with the first sword, Luo Ling had already sensed something was wrong.

The flying blade that whizzed towards him afterwards made Luo Ling more suspicious.

She copied the ability based on her feeling and finally confirmed that the person who came was Li Shaoheng, the company's P8 specialist.

It was unclear whether this "egg" wanted to kill these outsiders through her hands, or wanted to kill her through the outsiders, but it didn't matter anymore.

This is Puppet Rumor's conspiracy, but it is also Luo Ling's opportunity.

A chance for this "egg" to surface.

Before, Luo Ling had been constantly killing and devouring the power of the "egg" in order to find the true will of this "egg" on the huge fungal strain and completely defeat it.

During this process, the "egg" constantly used Luo Ling's memory to construct illusions, trying to completely assimilate her power.

This is a long tug-of-war, and whoever falls first will be the loser.

"Can't I tell the difference?"

"No, I know the difference very well."

Even though he had killed his sister dozens of times, even though reality and illusion, memory and personal experience were constantly alternating, Luo Ling always remained absolutely calm.

She calmly analyzed the situation, calmly killed her sister, and calmly ate the corpse until she walked out of the illusion constructed by her memory.

However, this "egg" kept failing. Perhaps it had sensed that it was in danger, so it tried to guide Luo Ling to confront the outsider.

A desperate choice.

But it miscalculated.

After using the abilities of the scientists in the spores to pull back all the team members who tried to escape from the hatchery, Luo Ling knew that it could no longer hold back.

It was also afraid that after Luo Ling devoured these awakened people, it would have an overwhelming advantage to defeat it.

Only by using its true will to devour these flesh and blood can it make Luo Ling completely sink into the illusion of memory and assimilate into its part.

After using up all its mycelium to trap everyone, the true will of the "egg" finally emerged, and it couldn't wait to start eating.

A seemingly inconspicuous strain of fungus, under the cover of several huge fungi, tried to start eating Li Shaoheng.

When it poked its head out, it was greeted by a sword light.

Cut off, kill.

"Compared to weirdness and conspiracy, humans are obviously better at this... At this point, you have already lost."

After the spasming fungus strain struggled for a while, it fell to the ground as a bloody corpse. It could be vaguely recognized that it was a tall woman.

Luo Ling's vision also returned to normal, and she once again walked out of the illusion of memory.

this is the last time.

All the mycelium that trapped the team members loosened at this moment. They had escaped, but were still in shock.

Who would have thought that the two weird (?) creatures that had been fighting side by side just now seemed to have an internal conflict at this moment. It was difficult to understand the situation at hand for a moment.

Li Shaoheng wanted to say something, but he saw that Luo Ling ignored him. Instead, he picked up the corpse with a slightly sad expression and slowly walked towards the limp and shriveled fungus strain in the distance.

All that was left for the team was a petite figure. One teammate wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to launch a sneak attack, but Li Shaoheng just raised his hand and stopped him.

"We...may need to re-evaluate her presence."

Li Shaoheng said softly, the smile and sadness of the silver-white girl constantly appearing in his mind.

Could she really be an apostle?

Could she really be weird?

At this moment, Li Shaoheng had begun to waver in his previous belief.

At this time, a teammate next to him exclaimed,

"The weird energy in the hatchery is dying!"

Hearing this, Li Shaoheng also picked up the instrument in his hand. The parameters on it were indeed constantly decreasing, which meant that the hatchery was collapsing.

The "White Witch" seems to have indeed solved the source of the disaster. The corpse of the tall woman who was just killed may be the strange entity.

but...

"Is this really the end?"

Li Shaoheng remained silent. He couldn't believe it in his heart.

His intuition told him that it was not that simple, and that such a "high-risk and strange" incident could not end in this way.

But no matter what...now I can only leave here, go back to the hatchery to report the situation to the company, and then make plans for the next step.

"Leave first."

Li Shaoheng exhaled and used his ability directly.

...didn't work.

"Wait, my ability..."

Li Shaoheng raised his head suddenly, and he subconsciously thought that it was the "White Witch" who took away his ability.

Could it be that Puppet Rumor... could even do something like this?

It was not until everyone exclaimed that they realized that he was not the only one experiencing this situation.

At this time, Li Shaoheng's cell phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was a call from Granny Lu.

That's impossible. The hatchery barrier will block all signals...at least mobile phones and the like can't be used.

Could it be that the hatchery has disappeared?

Li Shaoheng picked up the phone and heard that Granny Lu didn't say a word of nonsense. She said in a serious tone,

"Shao Heng, I'm afraid a result worse than all our expectations has already occurred.

“Perhaps, the entire Jiangcheng County... is a hatchery.

"From the beginning to the end, always."

Chapter 5 Returning to "Home" (k)

"The entire Jiangcheng County..."

Li Shaoheng felt cold all over.

He raised his head and found that a thin layer of gray haze had covered the sky, which could not be wiped off no matter what. Everything in Jiangcheng County was gradually covered with a gray color.
