End of Chapter 12
Thud----
The steel pipes slammed down, sending up plumes of black dust from the concrete ground. The ground seemed rather unstable; in the dust cloud, some steel pipes even pierced through the concrete and stood upright.
By this time, the streets had begun to bustle. Some people were startled by the falling steel pipes and screamed, but after realizing what had happened, they simply lowered their heads and walked around them.
Like them, Chen Miaowen never dared to get close.
"Is he dead?"
Will the body, which is said to be close to that of a god, die in this trap?
It seems not.
"Cough cough cough, you lunatic, I was almost killed by the shock!"
The smoke eventually dissipated, and among the countless steel pipes lying and standing, a man with yellowed skin lay on the ground, spitting out a large pool of blood.
Chen Miaowen clearly saw that the steel pipe did not pierce him, but it did hit him precisely.
However, the steel pipes only made some dents in his body; they did not pierce his skin.
"My internal organs are probably going to be shattered, cough, I don't even know if I have any internal organs left..."
Chen Miaowen turned and ran.
"Doppio!"
The gecko didn't overestimate its physical strength. If it continued to grow like this, the cannonball might not be able to harm it at all in less than fifteen minutes.
Chen Miaowen was quite helpless in the face of such a terrifying enemy. He couldn't match the enemy's speed, couldn't touch him, and his growth rate was immeasurable. He was a completely shameless substitute.
But he wasn't in despair yet... He ran back to the hospital.
"Still running? Cough cough, I'm about to die! Aren't you going to deliver the final blow?"
The gecko slowly crawled out of the steel pipe, pretending to be in pain and spitting out blood, but it actually recovered quickly. It was just trying to put on an act, but Chen Miaowen, that coward, didn't fall for it.
"Okay, I don't blame you. You must have run out of options and were afraid, so I understand."
The gecko suddenly laughed, a very flamboyant laugh.
"It seems... my growth rate is almost approaching that of a god... Have you ever heard that a god was originally just a chosen mortal... Haha, just kidding. The battle should actually be quite serious, right?"
This time, the gecko didn't choose to lie on the ground for a rapid chase; instead, it stretched and slowly crossed the road.
Along the way, several cars honked their horns to urge us on.
"Hey, you bastard, jaywalking and dawdling like that, are you looking for trouble?! Get out of the way, you..."
Someone rolled down the window, peered out and hurled insults, then burst into wild laughter upon seeing the naked gecko.
"Hahaha, turns out he's a crazy guy who loves to streak!"
Suddenly, a foul stench hit the driver, whose arrogant smile vanished abruptly, and his eyes went blank.
"Go to hell."
Buzzing—
The car engine started, bypassed the gecko, and rushed straight ahead.
Not far away was the sea, surrounded by railings, and the car sped past at top speed, crashing through the railings.
"Haha, that's right, mortals are just that fragile."
A gecko paced back and forth in the middle of the road, waving its arms comically as if it were dancing.
Immediately behind him, the vehicle collided and exploded without warning. Shattered car parts and the heat wave from the explosion swept over him, but he was unharmed.
"Aaaaaah, what's happening? Has death come?"
"What is this smell? I..."
The streets were in chaos, with many injured and dead; it was indeed no different from Final Destination.
Teresa, who had witnessed everything from the second floor, couldn't help but squat down on the ground, feeling nauseous but unable to vomit.
In her view, this was the end of the world.
"Hahaha... What a beautiful sound! Tobio! I can't contain myself any longer! In what form will you sing the praises of death!?"
Countless times, the gecko attacked Chen Miaowen again, but nothing changed.
But Chen Miaowen didn't think that way; his mind calmed down after crossing the road.
He also took a step forward, seemingly about to confront the gecko head-on.
"Oh? Instead of running away, you're actively approaching me?"
Chen Miaowen suddenly felt like laughing and slowed down.
"You might as well just die, I can't wait!"
The gecko was very confident and threw a punch right in front of him.
Unexpectedly, Chen Miaowen suddenly stepped back, firmly grasped the gecko's hand, and held a pebble in his other hand.
"What are you doing? What use is this pebble?"
The gecko couldn't hold back its laughter any longer, pointing its left hand at Chen Miaowen.
"You bastard, have you gone mad with despair?"
Chen Miaowen remained silent, then threw a pebble with his right hand, which struck a window on the second floor of the hospital.
Then, Chen Miaowen grabbed the gecko and hugged him tightly, like a young man in love embracing the girl who was about to become his bride, and making a vow to make it last forever.
But this vow is a little different.
"You can go die now."
"Huh? What are you talking about?"
The gecko was completely baffled by Chen Miaowen's inexplicable actions.
"Why are you hugging me? Your protective suit is about to break..."
The gecko stopped chewing and suddenly noticed that the window on the second floor of the hospital was wide open, and an iron bucket was leaking out, being poured out again, seemingly containing some opaque liquid.
"This is a farewell gift, 98% strong heat nitric acid from the hospital."
The gecko looked dazed and somewhat confused.
"Feed... what do you mean? What is nitric acid... how can you think that would work on me?"
"Don't worry, it can't be useless. Urine is a liquid after all, and the heat from a car explosion can evaporate it..."
The gecko's pupils dilated; he finally realized the threat and began to struggle frantically in his arms, but to no avail.
"Aren't you afraid of dying?! You wouldn't survive if I poured this on you! You want to die with me?!"
"No, it will only be you who dies, King Crimson."
Chen Miaowen deleted 0.5 seconds of his time, and then poured the high-concentration hot nitric acid all over the gecko's smooth body.
He let out a pitiful cry, like a dying beast.
"It hurts so much, my skin is about to crack!"
"No...no, my armor!"
The gecko endured the pain, noticing that the "poison" on its body was rapidly evaporating, and its skin was about to be completely corroded away.
He reacted quickly, trying to stick out his tongue to lick the remaining skin.
However, Chen Miaowen reacted even faster. He immediately summoned the Red King, and without the protection of the "poison," he easily punched through the gecko's chest.
"How... is this possible? I've lost like this? I... am I going to die?"
Chen Miaowen glanced at him indifferently, stepped back slightly, and Red King stood in front of him in a defensive stance, just to prepare for the possibility that the opponent could be resurrected again.
"Pfft... Dobio! I... can't be resurrected. A gecko can lose its tail many times in its lifetime, but I can't!"
The gecko coughed up a large pool of blood, and all of its few remaining organs stopped functioning.
Perhaps due to the immense pain, he shed some tears before he died.
"I almost..."
He died before he could even finish his last words, a swift and decisive death, with no possibility of moving again.
Chen Miaowen was still not at ease, and after the gecko stopped moving, he threw another punch.
"Theresa! Carry him inside, put him in a plastic barrel filled with hydrogen cyanide. His body... absolutely cannot be preserved!"
Dressed in protective gear, Teresa rushed down from the second floor of the hospital. The chaotic scene before her and the enemies with their bodies pierced through her made her terrified, and she looked at her boss with increasing panic.
"Okay...okay."
Chen Miaowen took off his tattered protective suit, which unexpectedly stayed with him until the very end.
He seemed lost in thought, a little tired, and waved as he returned to the hospital lobby.
"it's over."
