Doomsday Wonderland

Chapter 65: I’m Sorry for Having a Useless Ability

Translator: Pluto Editor: Tehrn

“What the hell? Ahhhhhh…”

A black shadow circled the Executives’ Building, it disappeared in a second, leaving a yellow trail of dust. This was followed tightly by two other figures, one who was visibly smaller. After a few seconds, the three shadows re-enacted the same scenario, going around the building once again.

“Enough of your bullsh*t. Stop and let me bite you to death right now!” an angry soprano voice rang behind Lin Sanjiu. It was the brown rabbit who was almost half-soaring in the sky because of its speed.

“You must be joking. Ahhhhhh… Didn’t they say there were five Executives. How can a rabbit be an Executive? Ahhhh… If there was a vacancy, why didn’t you people in Oasis inform me…”

There was no way Lin Sanjiu would stop, though she knew her protests did nothing but made the brown rabbit angrier. Lin Sanjiu did not dare to run elsewhere with these two Executives chasing her as she was afraid that she might accidentally lead them to her companions and implicate them. Without a choice, she could only run in circles around the Executives’ Building. The three, uh… people have already run for who knows how many rounds.

“Gah,” the OL muttered as she paused and turned in the other direction, deciding to catch Lin Sanjiu by running in the opposite direction. When the brown rabbit saw her moving, he suddenly grew impatient and shouted at the OL: “F*ck, you’re doing that again…”

Before he finished his sentence, a person jumped over his body while he was in a daze. Lin Sanjiu landed behind the rabbit, and she continued forward without stopping. Once again, all of them were running in the same direction but with a slight change in position. By then, Lin Sanjiu was already very familiar with the whole shenanigan. Apparently, she had jumped over the rabbit a couple of times over the past few rounds. The brown rabbit’s black eyes were almost turning red with fury, he screamed, “Stop changing directions! She just jumped over my head again! Curses!”

The OL’s spectacles were tinted with a cold light in the dark. “It’s all because you are so small, and you can’t block her. You’re useless!“ she said ruthlessly.

“I’ll bite you to death!” The brown rabbit’s eyes had already turned into two red inverted triangles. The OL ignored him. Even though she tried to run faster, there was no sign that they were closing the distance between themselves and Lin Sanjiu.

Sprinting was all down to one’s physical capabilities. Despite normal “Physical Enhancement” and Lin Sanjiu’s “Overall Physical Enhancement” both being passive abilities, they were of a different class just like a burger set compared to a deluxe family Christmas meal…

Other than the two people chasing her, most of the other posthumans would develop the normal “burger set”.

Seeing the woman in front of him running away with ease, the brown rabbit could not tolerate it any longer. Its four paws stopped, and it yelled out dispiritedly: “Startled monkeys, Fleeing Hares! [1]”

[What a cultured rabbit!] Before that thought fully popped up in Lin Sanjiu’s mind, a turf of brown ball suddenly shot toward her back, like a projectile from a rocket launcher and hit her. The forward inertia combined with the rabbit’s natural strength knocked Lin Sanjiu, who was still sprinting, to the ground.

The OL chased up to them within a few seconds and blocked Lin Sanjiu’s path. Right now, it looked like it wasn’t feasible for her to just stand up and leap over the rabbit. Lin Sanjiu stood up and dusted herself. “You’re quite chubby,” she complimented, looking at the brown rabbit.

“I’m going to kill you!”

As the rabbit screeched, Lin Sanjiu didn’t have an easy time evading the raining attacks from the rabbit. Due to the reflection on the OL’s spectacles, it was difficult to see what her expression was. Her outstretched arms were quickly turning a glowing red. The heat which radiated from her arms started distorting the surrounding air.

Lin Sanjiu’s expression turned stiff. She knew that she would turn into a burning corpse if she touched those arms. However, the process was not over. A red glow with a tinge of white spread from the OL’s shoulders to her chest and waist. Soon, the entire top half of her body became white. When a draft of wind blew over her body, even the sand carried by the wind burst into flames falling to the ground like tiny “comets”, leaving a few burnt marks on the ground.

【A Scorching Embrace】

Introduction: The user’s upper body can reach an intimidating temperature of 260°C. This temperature is enough for the combustion of almost all material. For the exact list of materials, please check the common melting points of the various elements.

Though the weakness of the ability was clearly the user’s legs, Lin Sanjiu could not get close to her opponent’s lower body at the moment. This was because the OL was much shorter than her. She guessed that the OL was about only 1.52m.

“This isn’t fair!” Being unable to do much, she turned and continued to run. This time she couldn’t be bothered if she might meet another of her companions. After all, the combat noises and explosions at the various corners of Oasis had already stopped.

Even though she did not know what the outcome of the battles was, she could at least cause some confusion if things weren’t looking good.

“No matter what, my Potential Growth Value is very high! Why do both of you have such killer moves and I have nothing?” Lin Sanjiu grumbled softly, and naturally, no one replied.

Before she could run far, the brown rabbit whose speed increased incredibly after yelling out “Startled monkeys, Fleeing Hares” quickly caught up to her. Using the same tactic, he and the OL cornered her again. Without saying a word, the OL leaped and headed toward Lin Sanjiu. Lin Sanjiu did not dare to even let the woman get close to her, she immediately shrunk backward and dodged her.

At the same time, she heard the rabbit shouting, “Wily hare’s Three Burrows [2]!” Before Lin Sanjiu could react, she felt two rabbit feet land on her shoulders. It felt as if she was hit by a blast wave. In the next second, a fountain of blood and flesh spurted out from the hole in her shoulder, dyeing the floor red.

“If I use this ability, I can create burrows in your body!” the brown rabbit laughed as it prepared to pounce on her again. Lin Sanjiu looked down at her wound and slowly lifted her head. Somehow, the expression on her face made the rabbit trembled for a second.

Lin Sanjiu swung her left hand as if she didn’t feel any pain. She held a long knife horizontally in her hand. Then, she bent over and thrust her knife toward the rabbit like a hungry wolf. The brown rabbit was shocked. He rolled aside and flipped his long ears to one side. Thus, barely dodging the blade that just scraped the tip of his head.

After she missed her target, Lin Sanjiu did not immediately jump up and chase after the rabbit. Instead, she let herself fall to the ground. She did not even turn back to look but threw out a card from her hand toward her back. Right behind Lin Sanjiu was the OL who was trying to follow up with an attack.

When the OL noticed the card, it was too late for her to defend herself. The card was reaching her knee. Suddenly, the card changed into a long nail which pierced through the OL’s knee. The woman howled. Her body swayed before she fell to the ground. The brilliant glow on her upper body immediately vanished.

【Marcie’s nails】

This is one of Marcie’s fresh nail. Even though it still possesses the “A laundry bar soap will turn dirty itself” effect, it can only last independently for ten minutes away from the owner’s body.

Without her abilities, the OL was just a struggling piece of flesh. Lin Sanjiu knocked her unconscious with just two punches. The entire series of events only lasted for five seconds. The brown rabbit watched blankly the entire time, unable to react.

Even when his opponent raised her knife, her target was the OL all along. He could tell that she had never received any sort of combat training, yet her movements were very accurate. It was as if she had eyes at the back of her head…

Before his chain of thoughts ended, the rabbit found that he was looking down from a high viewpoint. This was followed by a shot of pain from his ears. He knew that he was being lifted.

“Braise or barbecue?” Lin Sanjiu grinned coldly as she held the rabbit by his ears.

The brown rabbit trembled. As he was in mid-air, his tiny rabbit feet could not reach Lin Sanjiu. Even if he had that “Wily hare’s Three Burrows” ability, it was useless if he could not touch her. He knew that he was at a great disadvantage, so he decided to use his last resort.

The face in front of Lin Sanjiu was clearly a rabbit covered in soft fur, yet she could almost tell that he was sneering. The brown rabbit opened its mouth and muttered, “All the carrots are mine!”

【All the carrots are mine】

Introduction: The user will steal the strongest combat-type ability that his opponent possesses and be able to use it exclusively for five minutes. After 5 minutes, “All the carrots are mine!” will enter a cooldown state. During the cooldown period, the user cannot use any idioms with the word “hare”.

“Hahaha! How stupid! Your most powerful combat skill is with me now!” the brown rabbit immediately mocked when he felt a familiar warm flowing in his body. “Let me see… Huh? What’s this?” The rabbit looked at his paw and saw a Diary Card. Without even testing it out, he knew it was useless.

Lin Sanjiu gazed back at him expressionlessly.

The brown rabbit didn’t know why but he felt a little nervous suddenly. “Wait. Please wait… Ah, a police baton!”

The rabbit gripped the police baton with its paw. “Bzzt.” the police baton made a sound and ran out of batteries.

“And… and this! This nail. This was what you used just now…”

The card with Marcie’s nail suddenly turned to smoke with a “Pssh” — It had reached the ten minutes limit.

“Had enough fun?” Lin Sanjiu stared at the rabbit grimly.

The brown rabbit finally broke down: “How is this possible? How can this be your primary combat skills? How were you able to survive till today? I don’t believe this. You must have some hidden secret ability!”

The corner of Lin Sanjiu’s mouth curled. “I only have a single active skill, and it is that useless. Sorry. But I haven’t eaten barbecued meat for a long time, so I am more inclined toward that. What about you?”

If rabbits had tear ducts, the rabbit would have been crying right now. “Forget it, just let him go,” a familiar voice came from behind them. There were two people standing behind her. The person who just spoke was Griselda, and Xu Xiaoyang was standing behind her.

“Are you also here to fight?” Lin Sanjiu continued holding the rabbit as she asked emotionlessly. The cooldown period for her Pygmalion Choker was already over, and she still haven’t use it. She could threaten the rabbit in her hand to describe an ability for her… She had a chance!

Surprisingly, Xu Xiaoyang shook her head. “No… I am not here to fight with you. I know that you are not a traitor. The matter with the duoluozhongs was not you or your friends’ fault. I just have a request that I hope you can accept.”

For a moment, nobody spoke. They could only hear the never-ending howls of the wind. The glow from the tiny little “comets” left behind by the OL lit the faces of the few people.
