Many people drew in a sharp breath.
"A total of ninety-nine times."
Those with extraordinary eyesight quickly counted the exact number based on the traces on the ground.
At this moment, countless people had only one question in their minds.
Where on earth did Lin Fu come from to be such a monster?
Without superior qualities and physical stamina, she relied solely on experience and skill to accomplish the unbelievable.
Lin Fu fell exhausted to the ground.
Before she even hit the ground, she was struck by a mutant beast that had arrived last, sending her flying.
Her slender body smashed harshly against a large tree, immediately causing her to spit out a mouthful of fresh blood.
But this wasn’t the end; it was the beginning.
The knife she had formed in her hand was gone, slowly dissipating, declaring Lin Fu’s challenge a complete failure from this point on. And the consequence of failure was painful—not immediate death, as the hunters within the Simulation Illusion wouldn’t instantly kill Lin Fu. Instead, they would use the cruelest methods to toy with and torment her to death.
This was precisely Lin Fu’s situation, completely deprived of the ability to resist, surrounded and attacked by mutant beasts that arrived one after another.
All the spectators couldn’t bear to watch and closed their eyes, except for a few who took pleasure in her misfortune, eyes wide open, eagerly anticipating Lin Fu’s tragic end.
However, at that moment, a strange figure suddenly descended from the sky.
With one hand, he caught Lin Fu’s falling body, holding her waist and wielding the standard long knife in his other hand without pause, moving through the air like a shadow.
All the attacking mutant beasts died under his blade.
At that moment, everyone in front of the screen held their breath.
They stared with shining eyes at the person who had suddenly appeared.
Only a silhouette was visible.
Tall, cold, powerful, and aloof.
Like a towering mountain, majestic and awe-inspiring.
At this moment, the same question flickered through the minds of countless people.
Lin Fu, who was nearly unconscious, suddenly smelled a special, crisp fragrance that tugged at a string in her heart, and with the expected collision not arriving but instead being caught tightly by a single hand around her waist, her body pressed closely against a broad and warm chest.
This scent was so familiar.
"Fu Xing, is that you?" Lin Fu’s voice was hoarse and broken, sounding painfully heart-wrenching.
Fu Xing’s brow furrowed slightly, the large hand encircling her trembling.
With no response, Lin Fu wondered if it was just an illusion, a hallucination before death.
"Is this just a delusion? ’Day by day, I think of you, night by night, I dream of you.’ Have I fallen for you this deeply?" Lin Fu tilted her small face upward, striving to see clearly, but she couldn’t see at all. However, her character, never one to wallow in self-pity, kept her from breaking down mentally, even as her body sustained multiple fractures again, the pain nearly suffocating her.
She could still make light of herself, as if to relieve her stress, diverting her focus.
As long as she didn’t dwell on the pain but thought of happy things, of the person who made her happy, she could forget the physical pain, the mental torment.
"Fu Xing, Fu Xing, when we get back, can we sleep together?"
If she had to name her biggest regret now, it would be not having taken advantage of the opportunity before dying.
In her previous life, although she had countless suitors—some after her family background, some after her looks—she wasn’t interested in any of them and ended up dying single.
Now, having crossed over to an interstellar era, she had a fiancé arranged through a marriage alliance.
Satisfied in every aspect, his character and looks were exactly to her taste.
Lin Fu suddenly understood her friend’s behavior of constantly being in love.
Maybe it was the heavens knowing her regret before death, especially compensating her.
But she hadn’t had the chance to do anything yet...
"Don’t talk." A man’s voice, cool and deep, came from above her.
Lin Fu instantly turned to stone.
