CHAPTER 147: CHAPTER 19: THE DRAMA QUEEN SISTER REFUSES TO BE CANNON FODDER (PART 19)

No, I’m afraid you’ve died.

Jiang Lai looked up and met his gaze.

"Hmm, don’t you think you’re incredibly unlucky?"

"Not really, I’ve been pretty lucky."

Jiang Lai didn’t want to chat with him, instead focusing on wiping his face diligently, only to suddenly realize that Lin Yan had been staring at her.

His gaze was off, like someone examining meat on a chopping board in a market.

"How did your ex-boyfriend die?"

"Bitten to death by a zombie."

"How did you handle it?"

"Shot him in the head."

By this point, Jiang Lai had almost finished cleaning, and looking at the injured leg in front of her, she realized there’s not much else she could do.

"Can you treat it yourself?"

"Need stitches, I can do it."

Jiang Lai couldn’t stand such bloody scenes, so she stood up to leave.

Lin Yan added in an eerie tone from behind.

"However, there’s a high possibility of dying, considering the large blood loss."

"Forget it, I’ll stay here and watch then. If you need anything, just say so."

Lin Yan was a tough one, injecting himself with anesthetics, cleaning his own wound, then skillfully operating on himself and sewing a neat, aesthetic stitch.

Throughout this, there was a lot of blood lost, and Jiang Lai watched him. If something seemed wrong, she’d immediately grab the little girl to ask for help.

Luckily, Lin Yan was swift; after stopping the bleeding, he just looked a bit pale, but his mind was still clear.

"Take a good rest; I’ll go out to check the situation."

"I want to eat an apple."

"?"

"The best kind, sandy variety."

"..."

Jiang Lai shut the car door and got off, sighing wistfully, then checked the points exchange store and indeed found apples.

"An apple for one hundred points? Why doesn’t it just rob me?"

"These are premium apples imported from Switzerland; if you can’t afford them, don’t blame their cost. Reflect on why you’re so poor instead."

"Why the hell don’t you speak human?"

Truly a lackey trained by capitalists.

Jiang Lai painfully exchanged for one; the actual apple was slightly bigger, rounder, and redder than the photo, looking like a poisoned apple for Snow White. Jiang Lai entered holding the apple, watching Lin Yan receive it with heartache.

"Is it washed clean?"

"If not eating, give it back to me!"

As if Lin Yan would refuse, he leisurely took a bite and nodded in satisfaction, giving Jiang Lai an approving glance.

"Any more left?"

"No more, don’t even think about it."

Such a good item, eating one isn’t enough, and he thinks of having another.

A hundred points could have been exchanged for a skill.

Such extravagance! Just looking at it blocked Jiang Lai’s heart.

Getting off the car, everything outside was already in chaos.

It turned out Jiang Chao was injured; Yang Jun and Yan Zhouxing carried him out, the man’s face covered in soot, eyes tightly closed, unconscious, yet clutching something firmly in his hand.

Jiang Lai didn’t expect that even though she intervened, Jiang Chao still got hurt.

Gu Han Yan guarded beside him, her expression cold, eyes fierce as she glared at Jiang Lai, gritting her teeth.

"Happy now that you’ve gotten him into this state?!"

Just as Jiang Lai was about to check on Jiang Chao, she was met with this sudden accusation.

"I did this? Are you out of your mind?"

"If you hadn’t disappeared suddenly, could he have stayed down there looking for you? Jiang Lai, just how long are you going to drag him down?!"

Jiang Lai looked at Jiang Chao, squatting silently and observing his injuries.

Fortunately, his arms and legs were intact; judging by his smoke-blackened nostrils, he probably fainted from the smoke.

As long as there’s no major injury, it’s fine.

Jiang Lai genuinely felt some guilt, but it was towards Jiang Chao, having nothing to do with Gu Han Yan.

"Drag down? Who are you, and what’s your relationship with my brother? My brother didn’t say anything, need you chattering here? Gu Han Yan, mind your own business."

Gu Han Yan looked at Jiang Lai, her anger growing uncontrollably.

Jiang Lai stole her rare opportunity, her Crystal Stone, and now she’s snatching her man!

She endured this whole journey, considering it was Jiang Chao’s sister, she never really argued with Jiang Lai.

But now, Jiang Lai was pushing her to the limit, and Gu Han Yan wanted nothing more than to kill her!

Thinking of this, a strange white light began to emanate slowly from Gu Han Yan’s back, turning everything it touched to dust. Gradually, the white light transformed into spherical white dots slowly floating and spreading around Gu Han Yan, and a terrifying heat wave swept through. Everyone around, seeing this, hurriedly dodged, expressions shocked and astonished.

"Light Element, it’s the Light Element Ability!!"

Light Element?

Jiang Lai had never heard of such an ability, luckily an extra was there to automatically explain, setting the atmosphere.

"There are only hundreds of thousands of Superpower Users in the world, and the likelihood of triggering a Light Element Ability is just one in a hundred thousand. It’s said that wherever the Light Element Ability reaches, everything turns to dust, unmatched in an apocalyptic world!"

Jiang Lai listened, eyes widening.

"This is an overpowered cheat, isn’t it? Since when did she have a Light Element Ability?"

"The crystal you threw still had a bit of energy; she absorbed it and randomly triggered an ability, which just so happened to be the rare, highly destructive Light Element Ability.

Ah... Jiang Lai, just run."

This is fate.

Despite Jiang Lai absorbing the majority of the energy, she failed to trigger even one skill, only slightly enhancing her existing skill values.

Look at the heroine, just brushing by some energy gets her a Light Element, one in a hundred thousand.

How could she compete?

She couldn’t even catch up with the heat while eating shit.

And now, Gu Han Yan was dead set on killing Jiang Lai; while Jiang Chao was unconscious was the best time to make a move.

Jiang Lai wasn’t certain if she could defeat her, seeing the small white dots on Gu Han Yan’s back multiply and cluster, Jiang Lai looked at her remaining nine hundred plus points, gritted her teeth and used them all, simultaneously replenishing her health bar and exchanging for the most expensive mysterious big gift pack.

"Mysterious Big Gift Pack, a high chance of containing rare skills, guaranteed to provide attack-type skills, no returns or exchanges upon redemption, please check."

The moment the gift pack opened, the small white dots behind Gu Han Yan swarmed toward Jiang Lai like moths to a flame; seeing this, Jiang Lai immediately dropped to the ground, rolling several times to evade them in a sorry state.

At this moment, Spiritual Ability failed, unable to control the more powerful Light Element Ability.

Seeing Jiang Lai narrowly dodge once, Gu Han Yan didn’t give her another chance, directly gathering energy to launch a more intense attack than before.

When the white light ring hit the ground, it immediately sank, leaving a fist-sized pit. Everything in the pit turned to powder. Falling on the grass, the grass withered; landing on rocks, the rocks crumbled instantly.

No matter how fast Jiang Lai dodged, she couldn’t outpace the overwhelming rings of light coming at her.

Seeing Jiang Lai surrounded, Gu Han Yan finally felt a brief satisfaction.

She stared at Jiang Lai, her expression indifferent.

"Trash like you doesn’t deserve to waste the air on this world."
