Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

Chapter 626 293: Amber's Recognition (2)

His reincarnation skill, "Knight Will Not Die Unarmed," allows him to store his excess energy in daily life and transform it into a shield, with a maximum value of three times his Energy Attribute.

Under the blessing of the Abyssal Python, his Energy Value is 38 points, now providing him a shield equivalent to 114 points of Life Value.

Before the shield shatters, nothing can harm him.

Thinking about this, he gave Grace an apologetic look.

Sorry, I not only have the mechanism, but the numbers aren't bad either.

The upgraded Mamba Iron Elbow not only has a longer control duration but also a stronger control effect.

Grace lay flattened on the ground for over ten seconds, still feeling weak, dizzy in front of her eyes, with blood continuously pouring from her nose.

She wobbled to her feet, using her severely restricted, almost blinded eyes to look at Wu Chang, muttering softly:

"Finish you off, I want to keep you here with me forever."

She limped toward Wu Chang and Amber, the five-meter distance took her a long while, half a minute, or was it a minute?

During this time, Wu Chang did not pursue, and the control effect on her body gradually weakened, making Grace quite excited.

Do you really think it's a sure win? Just wait, once she recovers, she'll let the two of them see her real skills.

When she was within a meter of Wu Chang, her eyes could barely make out some shapes. She squinted and saw Wu Chang and Amber's expressions.

It wasn't vigilance, nor anger; Wu Chang's eyes were full of mockery, while Amber looked completely surprised.

Why?

She noticed Amber's gaze switching between her and behind her, and following Amber's line of sight, she turned and saw a human figure lying on the ground, where it had been elbowed before.

Darn! It was actually elbowed out of the possessed body!

It can't leave the body.

It turned to return to its body but heard Wu Chang's voice from behind.

"Here's your line back at you, don't stare at others in my presence."

It turned abruptly, only to see an elbow magnifying in its view.

"Mamba!"

This time, Wu Chang didn't hold back. He punched heavily at the figure flashing silver mirror light. After a minute, amidst the screams of the figure, the Mirror World collapsed, and Wu Chang and Amber returned to the real world.

As soon as they returned, Erin walked quickly over and hugged them.

"Welcome back."

Nestled in Erin's embrace, Amber grabbed Erin's arm with her backhand, initially wanting to struggle but ultimately not exerting any force.

After a brief moment of warmth for the family of three, they heard cries of pain not far away, remembering there was another person in the field.

Grace.

Grace, with blood flowing from her nose, slowly crawled up from the ground, muttering: "So dark, who turned off the lights, my face hurts so much, what happened?"

Wu Chang scratched his head; after Amber escaped the crisis, even a fatal blow to the possessed person would become insignificant minor injuries, so he didn't plan to hold back when striking.

Who knew the Mamba Iron Elbow worked too well, not only elbowing the strange mirror figure out but also bringing Grace's damage out of the Mirror World with it.

Oh no, quickly send her to the infirmary!

Although the Mamba Iron Elbow brought the damage out of the Mirror World, Grace, like the others before her, retained no memory from her time in the Mirror World.

Her memory only went as far as leaving the bathroom stall, and she couldn't recall anything that happened afterward.

In Wu Chang's words, she slipped on the accumulated water when coming out of the bathroom, face down on the ground and fainted. Fortunately, Amber passed by, found her, called Wu Chang, and got her to the school infirmary in time.

Knowing it was Wu Chang who carried her to the infirmary made Grace display a lovestruck smile without further questioning the other details.

Grace noticed Amber staying all the while waiting for her recovery, and when Amber was about to leave the infirmary for class, she called out to Amber, saying:

"Thank you for helping me, I can feel you're not like what everyone says."

Amber's body stiffened for a moment and she nodded cautiously, facing away from Grace.

"You're welcome, it was the right thing to do."

Although Grace believed Wu Chang's story, Amber knew that Grace was entangled by the Mirror World all because of her, and it was Sean who caused Grace's injuries.

She didn't help at all and wasn't worthy of thanks.

Grace continued: "Can I ask you out next rest day to hang out together?"

Amber showed hesitation on her face, wanting to agree yet being worried about something.

Just as she was about to speak, Wu Chang spoke up for her: "Of course you can, Grace, I've always thought you to be particularly mature and steady, hope you can take Amber out more often."

Amber wanted to resist, but Wu Chang pushed her to walk outside the infirmary, "Grace, take your time recovering, I'll take Amber back to class first."

After the two left, Grace chuckled to herself and murmured, "He praised me for being mature."

Outside the infirmary, Amber scrunched up her nose, dissatisfied: "You're meddling again."

Wu Chang casually replied: "You need more interactions with peers. Alright, get back to class now. If you dawdle, I'll carry you in to report to the class!"

"No!" Amber paled at the thought and quickly fled.

After running a few steps, she stopped at the stairway and turned back to say quietly: "Thank you for keeping your promise."

Wu Chang cupped his ear, using his palm to gesture hearing difficulty: "Huh? What did you say?"

"I said thank you!" Amber shouted before running off toward the class like an escape.

Wu Chang shook his head, smiling, saying: "This child doesn't know running is prohibited inside office buildings."
