Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 1212 - 18: I Have Good News for You

Hmm, and she also swiped a blue floral short-sleeved shirt, wearing it with her beach shorts—quite the match.

I wonder how many stars are out now.

What’s the scene... where’s the scene?

Wang Yunxiao looked up, gazing at the wriggling flesh tendrils in the sky.

In the direction that tendril is hanging... this might be the only mission guide, whatever is there, I’ll have to gamble on it.

If I lose, then so be it. Anyway, my wife’s neck is soft; losing her head won’t kill her.

......

You’ll die! You really will die!

Even fully armed and with ample weapons and ammunition, Li Mumu couldn’t help but feel a bit apprehensive as she stood at the entrance to the passageway to the underground secret research lab.

What if the skill trees from past and present lives are different?

She’s forgotten almost everything from her past life, only remembers what she learned in school.

Am I here to fight Annihilation?

Why don’t you go solo Ultraman?

But... on the bright side, I don’t have to win this round, right?

Annihilation wants the bloodline flowing through me, so a bit of bloodletting should do, right?

Even if I die in the end, it fits the original plot... wait, can I really go back after I die?

Li Mumu still has no idea why she was dragged into this.

I really don’t want to fight this battle.

Can we just follow procedure?

We can.

From a distance, she saw two burly bodyguards in suits standing at the entrance, raising their hands to greet her.

During the first run-through, she barged in without realizing that she’d already fallen into Annihilation’s trap.

Now, she knows that everyone in the underground lab has long become Annihilation’s puppets.

Western devils love signing contracts with people, then twisting words in those contracts to cheat souls from humans.

When Annihilation was created, she was forced to sign a contract with her head pressed down. But her controller probably didn’t anticipate her intellect evolving so fast, and she found loopholes in the contract herself.

Everyone knows that muttering in one’s heart isn’t a crime.

So if I checked the people in the lab for free without doing anything to harm them, how can you sanction me on baseless accusations?

She actually gained freedom, but truly breaking free of the contract’s restrictions still needs a key.

Which is the ’defiance’ authority embedded in Li Mumu’s blood.

"Hello, suspicious lady, you can’t come any closer. This is private territory."

The black-suited bodyguard revealed the holster at his waist and said seriously, "If you approach, then I must draw my gun and retaliate. But if you shoot first, the alarm will be triggered."

"So we need to request permission from our superiors."

The two bodyguards turned around, their backs to Li Mumu, and started whispering to each other.

Li Mumu, without changing her expression, rushed forward and knocked both of them out with a punch each.

The path ahead was terrifyingly smooth.

All the security guards clambered over each other to be taken down.

All the security systems went offline due to one reason or another.

In the surveillance room, guards switched the TV channel to the Super Bowl.

The lab supervisor, putting down his work, embraced his assistant and began furiously kissing.

Li Mumu barreled through the deepest part of the lab, bullets dancing from her gun almost without waste.

According to the first playthrough’s plot, she should have waited for the top student to hack their servers, realize the experimental logs were off, and then sense danger.

But Li Mumu skipped all that and headed straight for the deepest physical isolation testing chamber.

It was a massive metallic sphere, looking not too different from an artificial nuclear fusion device, holding Annihilation’s true body inside.

According to a certain inconspicuous clause added later in the lab’s safety protocols, if the lab is invaded and unable to resist and all other defenses have failed, they may consider the final emergency measure: release Annihilation to attack the enemy, both to perish together.

This was originally meant to be a self-destruct protocol.

Not sure when it got changed to this.

Just as Li Mumu entered the chamber, the surrounding warning lights flashed on, and ear-piercing alarms blared instantly.

The metal sphere slowly opened, and the pungent, bloody water flowed from the gaps, revealing a woman whose entire body seemed devoid of skin, bloody and appeared to have endured severe torment, with restraints being unlocked one by one.

This is the final boss fight; beat her, and I can go home and get married...

Li Mumu lifted her rifle, aimed at the woman’s body, and pulled the trigger taut.

Special demon-breaking bullets bloomed with blood flowers on her body’s surface but to no effect.

This was a bait; Annihilation’s true body had already slipped away.

Having dutifully emptied the clip, Li Mumu turned and ran.

Although I pledged to be a scapegoat, if escaping is an option, why not?

Of course, such good fortune doesn’t exist.

The way in was smooth sailing, but leaving wouldn’t come easy.

The researchers already under Annihilation’s control had merely stood by earlier; now, they surged together like zombies, packing the corridor tightly.

Li Mumu, having emptied her gun, drew a long knife from her back, mowing down the crowd, but lost her footing, slipped, and fell to the ground. In an instant, dozens of flesh tendrils rushed in from all directions, binding her like a zongzi.

Come on, I don’t want this magic girl and tentacle monster defeat CG!

Sensing Li Mumu’s thoughts, the flesh tendrils didn’t move further; instead, a beautiful woman in a white coat walked over with an IV drip in hand.

"There, there! It won’t hurt, it’ll be over soon."

The beautiful big sister gently embraced Li Mumu, took a thick needle, skillfully punctured her artery, and the bright red blood gushed out from the syringe.

Li Mumu gritted her teeth, "How much blood do you need?"

The big sister smiled, "The more, the better."

"But there must be a limit, right?"

"I’ve been so gentle already, why the fuss over details?"

The big sister indeed was gentle.

In the first playthrough, Li Mumu had duelled this woman for half an hour, slicing tirelessly, unaware of how much blood she lost in the fight.

Now, lying there giving blood was a lot more humane.

A normal human has about 4000 to 5000 milliliters of blood; losing more than 1000 milliliters is life-threatening, and beyond 2000 milliliters is near-death.

In her past life as a Special Affairs Bureau agent, Li Mumu was brimming with vitality, like a movie protagonist, still jumping around even after being slashed into a "blood gourd." To her, losing 2000 milliliters wasn’t fatal.

But Annihilation didn’t intend to stop at 2000 milliliters.

Why would you expect my heretical path to speak Jianghu ethics with you?

"Can we negotiate?"

Li Mumu squeezed out a smile, "Lady Annihilation, as the saying goes, leave a line so it’s easier to meet again. Maybe for my ancestor’s sake, let me go?"

Those words made her feel like a villain from a web novel, incredibly humiliated.

The beautiful big sister smiled, "Silly child, if I don’t bleed you dry today, there won’t be a next time."

Yet, before she finished speaking, a loud bang suddenly echoed behind her, hot air and roaring flames tearing the nearby flesh tendrils apart, even blasting the big sister into pieces, leaving just half a body.

Li Mumu scrambled awkwardly to her feet, seeing Li Yufei holding a grenade launcher in one hand and taking pictures with the other, using her phone camera.

"Don’t move! Just stay in that position, let me take a few more shots!"
