Following the leaping curve, Huaiyin flew directly over the stairs, with the devastating Wheel Nyūdō behind her.
Wheely Descent violently smashed through the door and rushed into the stairwell, countless ropes whipping wildly against the surrounding walls, leaving scorched marks and raising wisps of smoke.
Ringo was still running downhill when Ayane flew over her head and said, "Keep running! To the server room!"
After saying that, Huaiyin landed on the side wall of the stairwell, stomping heavily on the wall with both feet. Then she jumped up again, leaving two shoe prints on the wall.
There is a corridor spanning half a floor between the third and second floors, leading to another machine room building, which is where the biogas machine room is located. The two men's goal is to lead the Wheel Entry Path there.
The direction Huaiyin jumped was towards the window above the corridor.
Engaging in a close-quarters fight in a narrow stairwell is undoubtedly difficult, and Rin-yūdō understands this, as does the terror of his ropes.
Countless ropes rushed towards the direction Huaiyin was jumping, carrying the whooshing sound of the wind and the heat, forming a dense array of horizontal bars that blocked Huaiyin's path.
Seeing this, Huaiyin held the long sword to the side with one hand, kicked off the wall next to him for leverage, and started spinning.
"Shuisha——"
The sharp longsword transformed into the whip blade of the spinning top, knocking the hemp ropes aside as Huaiyin advanced, allowing him to rush towards the narrow window without any hindrance.
Ringo rushed into the corridor, while Ayane smashed through the window and reached the top of the corridor.
The intense heat in the stairwell vanished abruptly, replaced by a sharp, cold wind.
The series of actions just now were undoubtedly extremely extraordinary, something that Huaiyin, who was once an ordinary person, could never have done. Just the fact that he jumped several meters away with a single leap and then used the wall as leverage to jump again already exceeded the limits of ordinary people.
She adjusted her breathing, the cold wind ruffled her hair, but instead of feeling happy, she became even more alert.
Chapter 109 The Girl Has Transformed into a Hunter
Behind her, the angry rumble of wheels was drawing near. Huaiyin disregarded everything else and continued running forward, sprinting along the top of the open-air corridor.
Meanwhile, in the corridor below, Ringo Shinzen was also running forward.
Having been toyed with like this by the two, Rin-yūdō's anger had reached its peak. He let out a high-pitched shriek, and the burning wooden wheel suddenly generated tremendous force, crashing directly into the narrow window in the corridor.
The petite Huaiyin could smash through the glass and rush out, but Wheely Path couldn't. However, he displayed terrifying destructive power at this moment. The burning wooden wheel crashed into the concrete, making a crackling sound. The reinforced concrete instantly turned into pieces. He directly smashed open a huge hole and rushed to the top of the corridor.
A cold wind, carrying some gravel, hit Huaiyin's back. Huaiyin knew that he could no longer turn his back to the Wheel Path and continue to escape. This corridor was twenty meters long, and he would probably be caught up in an instant.
She turned around, holding the knife in one hand, her eyes sharp, staring at Rin-yūdō, displaying a completely different aura than usual, almost like a different person.
Even though it was only the second time she had faced evil spirits alone, Huaiyin seemed to have already gotten into the zone, and her belief that she could fight off evil spirits had somehow taken root in her heart.
Wheely Path rushed over, its hemp ropes weaving through the wind, the flames flickering and transforming into long snakes spitting out venomous fangs, vying to rush towards Huaiyin.
Huaiyin gritted his teeth and swung his long sword, which was covered with a dark gleam, making the originally silvery blade look as if it were covered in dust.
This time, the longsword no longer made a clinking sound like sharp weapons clashing, but rather cut through tofu like a swift knife, instantly severing the burning hemp ropes.
Wheel Monk was startled, his momentum abruptly halted, and the ropes no longer attacked straight at him, but transformed into long whips, lashing out from all directions.
Huaiyin tightened his grip on the longsword, holding the very tip of the hilt so that the hilt was almost integrated with his forearm. He abandoned the flexible and varied angles that wrists could use to wield the sword, and instead relied on the powerful force of his forearm swing.
If Dou Tang were here, he would definitely see that Huai Yin's technique was extremely similar to his own, with every move and stance bearing his shadow, but even more effeminate.
Although Huaiyin had become much stronger, it was still a pipe dream to fight against such a powerful demon. The overwhelming flames and ropes were too difficult to deal with, so Huaiyin could only fight and retreat.
Meanwhile, Ringo Shinzen, who was in the corridor, was very anxious as she listened to the sounds of fighting above her. She took out stacks of talismans from her pocket, hesitated for a long time, and then threw them out.
These talismans were pasted on the ceiling of the corridor, and the patterns drawn on them quickly lit up, and after a moment, they emitted bursts of cracking sounds.
"Bang bang bang bang!"
Although the power of a single card is small, the combined power of nearly a hundred cards should not be underestimated. Although the Shinzen family is not as wealthy as the Ryūko Sada, they still have their own ways of using them.
A series of small explosions rang out, quickly shattering the reinforced concrete above Ringo Shinsaki's head. She hurried forward.
Hearing the commotion, Huaiyin, who was locked in combat with Lunyūdō, immediately brandished her long sword, parted the ropes in front of her, and leaped backward.
Wheel Monk felt his body suddenly go empty, and the ground beneath him began to fall.
He quickly pulled back the hemp rope, turned the wooden wheel, and resumed moving forward.
Ringo, having gone this far, turned back and threw out more talismans in the corridor. This time, the talismans stuck to the ground, causing another burst of explosions.
The explosion rang out, completely rupturing the load-bearing structure of the corridor, which then began to collapse and fall downwards.
Now, both the two girls and the Wheel Monk had no choice but to run forward with all their might.
Especially Wheel Monk, who was at the very back, trying his best to catch up while also dealing with the occasional unexpected stab from Huaiyin.
In reality, even if the three of them fell from the two-story height, it wouldn't be a big deal. However, if they did fall, it would undoubtedly waste time. Rin-yūdō wasn't sure if the two of them would damage the facilities in the processing plant during that time. The two of them, on the other hand, were... using Rin-yūdō's momentum to set a trap for him.
If you make Rin-yūdō think, "I've wasted so much effort," he won't easily give up attacking the two of them, and he'll be more easily led to the place they've planned.
This is what is meant by sunk costs.
Because of his deep commitment and unwillingness to give up, Rin-yūdō loses his ability to think clearly, and his blind pursuit makes him a prey falling into a trap.
Huaiyin rushed to the end of the corridor, leaped high, smashed through the glass on the third floor, and rushed inside. Wheel Descent followed closely behind, also rushing in through the gap.
The corridor behind them collapsed to the ground in sections, making a rumbling sound, but it didn't travel far in the howling wind.
As soon as Huaiyin rushed into the third floor, she turned around and squatted down, directly behind the windowsill.
The moment Rin-yūdō rushed into the room, he only noticed what was in front of him and therefore did not notice Kaine. At this moment, Kaine took the opportunity to leap up and slash out with his sword.
The blade struck the Wheel Monk squarely, severing nearly half of his dark limbs with a single blow, leaving a deep gash even on the bone.
Having landed a successful blow, Huaiyin didn't linger. She rolled low to the ground to dodge the menacing rope, and behind her, the sound of the rope hitting the ground echoed.
She ran forward, while Taira no Masakado roared, "You dare hurt me?! You bastard human, I'll tear you apart alive!"
He chased after her, shouting, "I'm going to strip you naked, hang you up, and drain every last drop of your blood! Then I'll scalp you and braid your hair into ropes!"
Huaiyin whistled at the cursing, seemingly unconcerned, and continued running forward. Her straightforward personality was somewhat similar to Doutang's.
Ringo Shinzen, who went through the corridor to the stairwell, also went up to the third floor, but instead of following Ayane, she fled in another direction on her own.
Huaiyin slipped back into the stairwell, seemingly heading downstairs.
Without the slightest hesitation, Wheely Path rushed into the stairwell and chased after Huaiyin.
Huaiyin used the same trick again, transforming into a nimble ape. With a leap, she jumped down an entire floor, then stomped down the wall several times. In such a narrow and difficult place, Lunrudao really couldn't catch up with her.
Huaiyin quickly went down to the first floor, where various sewage treatment machines were located. At this moment, with the restart of the machine by Shinzen Ringo, it was making a loud noise, and the entire first floor became extremely noisy.
The sound of the giant machine masked Huaiyin's footsteps. She was faster than Wanyūdō in going downstairs, so she decisively slipped into the shadow of the machine. Lines of silver pipes and cylindrical machines concealed her whereabouts.
As Wheelyūdō descended to the first floor, he roared, "Damn it, are you too scared to face me?"
Hidden in the shadows, Huaiyin squinted, her eyes cold and ruthless, waiting silently without any expression.
She spent a year solidifying her resolve, and this resolve was put to the test. The usually well-behaved and adorable Huaiyin never hesitated to show her hunter side when facing the enemy.
A long sword gleaming with a dark light was hidden behind her. Her cold eyes were fixed on the Wheel Monk not far away, without even a hint of "gaze," just like the gleaming machines around her.
Chapter 110 He held a long whip
Watching the restless Wheely Path practitioners on the open ground, Huaiyin's breathing gradually calmed down. Hiding in the shadows like this gave her a strange sense of excitement, but she suppressed it and transformed it into pure tranquility.
Having faced the evil spirit alone and lured it into a trap, Huaiyin buried this sense of accomplishment deep in her heart, her eyes devoid of any emotion, becoming as cold and ruthless as Doutang during a hunt.
Dou Tang's emotions undoubtedly became more active. He gained some human touch because of Huai Yin and the presence of other people in the outside world, but Huai Yin also unconsciously picked up some of his personality traits because of her admiration for him.
Transformed into a hunter, Huaiyin held a long sword and continued to stare at the Wheel Nyūdō not far away.
Back in the control room on the third floor, Ringo Shinzen could see Wanyūdō on the screen on the first floor, but she didn't notice Ayane, who was hiding in the corner from the surveillance cameras. However, she knew that Ayane was on the first floor and that the plan they had discussed was proceeding smoothly.
Xinchuan Wastewater Treatment Plant has two methods for treating domestic wastewater, especially biogas digesters. One method is to discharge the purified wastewater after biogas power generation, and the other method is to dilute the water in the biogas digester and discharge it directly into the river.
usually
The second application is used when the biogas digester needs to be emptied or the pressure in the biogas digester is too high to generate electricity. Diluting it with other wastewater is also to reduce the concentration of biogas and reduce the risk of explosion.
What the two are now doing is emptying the biogas digester without diluting it with other domestic wastewater. This will fill the discharge pipes with a large amount of flammable biogas, which will cause an explosion if the flames on Lun Rudao's body come into contact with it.
Leading Wanyūdō to the pipe that discharges swamp gas was not difficult. From their brief encounter, the two had already discovered that Wanyūdō was similar to a hothead. If it weren't for Wanyūdō's excessive physical strength, the two of them could have killed him directly.
The real challenge of this plan is that while the wheel entry channel is being led to the discharge pipe, the person responsible for attracting the wheel entry channel must also be near the pipe. In that case, the person attracting the wheel entry channel will also have to face the risk of an explosion.
But Ringo Shinzen chose to believe in Kawano.
Wheelyom wielded the rope, his hollow eyes scanning everything before him, scrutinizing every detail in the gaps between the pipes, trying to find the location of Huaiyin.
The ropes gradually lengthened, some even exceeding their intended length, like venomous snakes slithering on the ground, even climbing up pipes and standing up with sharp points, swaying from side to side.
Just as Wheely Path was about to continue his insults and provocations, a dark shadow flashed in the distance. Huaiyin, who had been crouching low, leaped out, wielding her long sword to cut several ropes, jumped onto the top of a pipe, and began to run on the pipe with a light touch of her toes.
Wheely Way was furious. He used the rope to forcefully throw him out of the pipe. He was briefly airborne before crashing back to the ground with a thud. He then rolled forward with overwhelming force, twisting and deforming all the pipes that were whipped by the rope.
Huaiyin moved with incredible agility, traversing pipes only a foot wide as if walking on flat ground. Her long legs moved back and forth like walking a tightrope, and although the steps in front and behind were all in a straight line, her speed was by no means slow.
Wheelyūdō followed closely behind, wielding the hemp rope like an unstoppable chariot, with flames flickering around him, just as Kaion and Ringo Kamizen desired.
Huaiyin continued forward and arrived at the empty factory where the biogas generator was located. The place was filled with the unpleasant smell of biogas all year round, which made people uncomfortable.
Huaiyin put on a gas mask and crawled into the factory. The biogas generator in the factory had already started running again, and the piercing roar of the machine was very annoying.
The howl of the Wheel Monk was therefore difficult to hear.
Huaiyin turned around, squinted at Rinyuudo who had barged into the factory, and raised the long sword in her hand.
As Wheel entered the factory, the head on the side of the wooden wheel chuckled and turned, seemingly observing the surrounding environment. Then it laughed, its laughter hoarse and eerie.
"You've run into a dead end, have you lost your mind? Let me send you on your way!"
Huaiyin remained silent, simply holding the knife slightly lowered with one hand, bending down, and extending his left hand forward as if to prepare for battle.
The laughter of the Wheel Nyūdō gradually became more violent. If chasing him in a narrow area was still troublesome, fighting him in such an open space was simply suicide.
In his eyes, Huaiyin's actions at this moment were tantamount to suicide.
With a loud shout, countless fiery ropes swung and tugged at the surrounding pipes, hurling his body directly out.
The burning wooden wheel slammed heavily onto the ground and rolled forward, grinding towards Huaiyin.
Huaiyin remained completely calm. He took a deep breath, his eyes gleaming, and leaped toward the longest-looking fire rope beside him. He swung his sword and cut it in half before continuing forward.
Unfazed, Wheely Path reversed direction and continued grinding towards Huaiyin, laughing as he said, "Run, run! Keep struggling!"
Huaiyin pulled out the talismans given to her by Shinsen Ringo from her pocket and flung them out one by one. The ground where the talismans were stuck on instantly changed its appearance, as if it had become a sticky swamp. When the Wheel Monk entered it, he felt sticky all over and extremely uncomfortable, and his speed was also reduced.
Huaiyin continued to jump and leap, eventually soaring into the air, stepping on a fire rope to jump up, and continuing to run deeper into the factory.
The more petty the tricks, the more Wanyūdō felt that Kaion had run out of options. At this point, he was convinced that Kaion had no other means, and he was so engrossed in his anger that he did not notice anything unusual about the noise from the huge machinery around him.
With a few leaps, Huaiyin jumped onto the high pipe again, and somehow found herself holding an extinguished hemp rope in her hand. After detaching from the main body of the Wheel Descent Path, this thing was just an ordinary rope.
She looked down at Rin-yūdō, a voice echoing in her mind.
“Girl, now you have a whip in your hand.”
"This is a rope."
"No, it's a whip, a whip used to lash out at those evil spirits, a whip that belongs to you."
Another soul within her was slowly narrating and teaching, guiding Huaiyin's mind and soul in another direction.
She suddenly felt a restless urge in her left hand, and her body became uncontrollably excited. She looked at the hemp rope she was tightly holding, and the surging emotions in her heart flowed to the surface of her mind, filling her with anger.
In a daze, she seemed to understand why Dou Tang was always so angry at evil spirits; she now deeply felt the restless anger beneath the calm surface of the water.
She followed her heart and raised the hemp rope in her hand.
Wheely Descent used fire ropes to pull himself up, emitting a piercing shriek as he charged towards Huaiyin amidst roaring flames.
槐
Yin swung the long rope in her hand fiercely, the rope cutting through the air like a finely crafted whip, lashing out at the enemy.
Chapter 111 I'll Give You a Punch! Boss Zha!
The rope lashed hard against the wooden wheel, momentarily deflecting its forward momentum. The wheel, which had previously been impervious to knife cuts and punches, now seemed to have suffered a heavy blow, and a noticeable crack appeared on the rim.
"Now you can only lash out one more time," Huaiyin whispered in his ear.
"What was that just now?" Huaiyin asked softly.
When Huaiyin swung the whip, he felt a strange force wrapped around his arm, as if... another person was swinging the rope in his hand with him.
But no one answered her.
The wheel, now back on the ground, was furious, but also somewhat horrified as it looked at the cracks on its wheel hub. The ropes retracted slightly, becoming alert, and the hollow eye sockets were aimed at Huaiyin, who was standing on the pipe.
Then, Wheelyakudo made a ruthless decision, and countless ropes stretched out, pulling on the pipes. One by one, the silvery metal pipes were entangled and broken by his immense strength.
