Chapter 64
Even if they do escape, how can they survive all alone? They'll probably end up as nothing more than a pile of bones.
No, no, no! That's not right! Even so, I can't give up.
Ah!
It's better to be left to rot in the wilderness than to be meticulously minced into meat sauce by a chainsaw killer!
Damn it! And what's more, wasn't it said that luck would turn around? Wasn't it said that fortunes change? My situation has gotten so bad one after another! Surely something good is going to happen next?
Surely it can't be that things will turn out badly next, right?
No way, no way, really?
Is it really possible for someone's life to be even more unlucky than drawing cards?
Even gamblers don't lose every time, so how could everything I encounter be bad from beginning to end?
Just as the Doctor was thinking this, he suddenly felt his feet slip and then felt as if he were falling.
She looked down and saw that she found herself suspended in mid-air in a huge rift valley.
"... ha?"
The night was so dark that she didn't even notice that the terrain in front of her was actually a...
Rift Valley
"... Ahhh!"
The Doctor stared wide-eyed as the surrounding cliffs rose rapidly.
I'm falling!!!
It's over... it's really over now...
Her face turned deathly pale, and she began to try to adjust her posture in mid-air like a fish.
"Speaking of which... if you land headfirst... wouldn't you feel anything?"
In her despair, she even started having wild thoughts.
Then the Doctor looked up, gazing at the receding edge of the cliff.
A dark figure seemed to peek out from there. Was it the chainsaw killer who had caught up with them?
... Okay, compared to being caught by her, the Doctor suddenly felt that landing headfirst and turning into a bloody pulp wasn't such an unacceptable option.
After all, at least the latter would result in a quick and painless experience.
Ugh! Okay! I still don't want to die! Someone, someone save me!
[Laurentina, she fell.]
"Okay, I understand. Leave it to me."
Laurentina sighed, then stood on the edge of the cliff, watching as the tips of her skirts all turned into claws and buried in the ground around her.
Like driving piles, they fixed her in place.
Subsequently, one of the tentacles extended, transforming into a rope-like structure.
She grabbed the tentacle, swung it around quickly, and then, finding the right amount of force, hurled it directly towards the bottom of the rift!
Eyeballs sprouted from the tips of the tentacles, staring intently at the falling Doctor.
[I can catch up.]
Zuo Jian watched as his frontmost point moved closer and closer to the girl, until they were completely parallel.
"Ahhh... I don't want to... Wait, what is this?"
The Doctor opened his eyes and found a long, scarlet object falling with him.
"Wait, what do you think you're doing! Don't come any closer!"
She was about to say something when she realized that the red tentacle was extending towards her and wrapping around her waist.
"Eh?!"
[... If we pull her back directly, with that impact force, it could break her spine... We need to find a way to distribute the force.]
After wrapping its arms around the Doctor's waist, Zuo Jian, then extended more tentacles to entwine other parts of the girl's body.
For example... the groin area.
"Whoa! What is that?! You can't go there!!"
Watching the red tentacles extend and transform into more tentacles, the slippery sensation traveled from the lower abdomen towards the root of the thighs, until it wrapped around the lower sides of the body!
But it wasn't over yet; it continued to grow new tentacles, which began to wrap around its chest.
"Ugh, this feels so disgusting... No! I don't want to!"
Realizing something was wrong, the Doctor began to resist. She kept pulling at the slippery tentacles that were extending out with her hands, while her two legs, which were entangled, struggled desperately.
[... well...]
"I said, can you calm down a little? If this keeps up, it might be too late."
The Doctor was taken aback, only to find that the tentacle he was holding had suddenly grown a mouth and was speaking to him.
"Are you calm now? Good. Now, don't move around too much—"
"Aaaaaaah! Tentacle monster! Aaaaaah! No, come near me!"
Zuo Jian could even feel relieved, the Doctor, whom he was entangled with, began to resist even more fiercely.
It even started flailing its hands haphazardly, trying to stop the other tentacles from finding a point of leverage.
Zuo Jian with no other choice, Zuo Jian realized there wasn't enough time, so he had to forcibly restrain her.
The next moment, the Doctor felt his hands tighten.
Then, without anyone noticing, tentacles extended from her back and bound her ankles and wrists together.
"Aaaaaaah! Am I going to have my body played with by this thing before I fall to my death?! Aaaaaah! No, no to that kind of thing!!!"
The Doctor completely broke down at the thought of what was about to happen, and she screamed and cried out in a hoarse voice.
However, another tentacle was then shoved directly into her mouth, blocking her throat.
"Waaaaah!"
Tears welled up in the Doctor's eyes as she looked with despair at her body, now completely bound.
He was bound so tightly he couldn't move.
"Don't scream. Screaming in this environment will cause oxygen deprivation, and you won't like that feeling."
The tentacles on its body opened their mouths and spoke.
"Phew, thank goodness we made it in time. I know it will be tough, but please bear with it for a little while."
"It's expected to land in about three... seconds, right?"
After he finished speaking, he turned the Doctor's face directly to the ground, where the doctor burst into tears as he watched the sandy ground covered with pebbles crashing towards him!
Don't want--
She closed her eyes in despair.
However, the next moment, the Doctor's whole body tensed up, as if something elastic was pulling him to reduce the impact.
I opened my eyes and found that the tip of my nose was only a few fingers' length away from the ground.
You can even clearly see several insects crawling out from the ground, carrying the remains of some other insects.
Are we... saved?
"Fortunately, her resilience is within an acceptable range. Now... well, hopefully Laurentina won't overdo it."
Zuo Jian spoke up, then glanced at the Doctor he was entangled with, who looked somewhat dazed.
He released the tentacle that was blocking the other's most sensitive spot, and then asked.
"By the way, have you ever experienced any adverse reactions to bungee jumping?"
The Doctor listened to the other person's words and felt that he could not answer them for the time being.
"Bungee jumping...?"
.
On the cliff, Laurentina felt the tentacles in her hand suddenly tighten, and then heard Zuo Jian's instructions.
[Laurentina, let's do it.]
"Ugh, yes, yes, tsk, that woman is really annoying."
After Laurentina finished speaking, she frowned and pulled the rope in her hand, then, as if to compete with herself, she suddenly swung it upwards!
.
"Bungee jumping...?"
At the bottom of the cliff, before the Doctor could react, she felt an even greater force pulling her straight into the sky!
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
"Sigh... Laurentina... Anyway, stop screaming for now, save your energy."
Zuo Jian finished speaking, he silenced the Doctor by covering his mouth again.
"Waaaaah!"
The Doctor looked at the tentacles covering his body, tears welling up but being flung away.
I want to go home...
I want to go home!
No... it should be back to that Sarcophagus!
I want to go back! I just want to lie here like this!

Chapter Twenty-Five, Originium Arts, Isn't it amazing?
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!"
The Doctor burst into tears as he watched himself being accelerated upwards!
Finally, she crossed the edge of the cliff from which she had initially fallen.
Laurentina reached out, grabbed the trembling Doctor, and threw her to the ground.
"Hello, little kitty who likes to run around."
She placed the long saw on the ground, then leaned against it, looking at the other person with an indifferent, questioning expression.
A major crisis! This is the first time Zuo Jian has shown desire beyond basic goodwill towards other beings!
Laurentina felt an unprecedented sense of crisis!
I don't know where this feeling comes from, but anyway, it's a very serious sense of crisis!
"Hey, you..."
She stepped forward, wanting to see what was so special about this guy who had managed to seduce Zuo Jian!
However, as soon as he took a step forward, he saw that the other person was so frightened that he immediately sat down on the ground and kept backing away.
"Hey!! You! You, you stay away!"
The Doctor felt her face turn pale with fright. Looking at the creature before her, she wondered if even jumping off a cliff wouldn't save her from this demon's torment?!
