Chapter 11 3 Items
Chapter 11 3 Items
"Why did you kill the Terror Eater?" Li Jiuhe asked, puzzled.
Li Yi said, "To save myself. I am in danger now, twenty years from now. Only by collecting three items can I be saved. The first is the 'Morning Bell of the Second Seventh Day', the second is the tongue of the person with a fear of eating, and the third is my mother's most beloved gift."
As she spoke, Li Yi took out a women's watch from her small cloth bag: "This watch is my mother's most beloved gift. It was the first thing I got after I traveled back in time. As for the 'Morning Bell of the Second Seventh Day,' I've already found out that it's in the city museum. And the tongue of the Terror Eater can only be obtained by killing the Terror Eater, because he feeds on the fear of others with his tongue."
Li Jiuhe's gaze was fixed on the women's watch in her hand.
This light purple watch definitely belongs to his wife, and it was a gift he gave her after they got married. Little did he know that it would be his wife's most cherished gift!
Li Jiuhe felt a pang of pain as her memories were stirred. It seemed that the time traveler did indeed need these three items, but whether they were for saving a life was unknown.
Without showing any outward emotion, he nodded: "So only by killing the Fear Eater can we obtain his tongue."
Li Yi put away her watch and replied, "Yes, because after his tongue was cut off, this guy was bound to die. But he deserved to die. As far as I know, he has already consumed the fear of over a hundred people, and these people will eventually be consumed by their own fear."
He paused, then added, "If you don't deal with Jiang Kun and his group today, those two will also be doomed."
She then placed the silver-plated dagger on the coffee table and pushed it in front of Li Jiuhe.
"I thought I could take advantage of the opportunity tonight to deal with the cannibals, but it seems I overestimated the abilities of this weak body. So Dad, I can only rely on you for help. If I can successfully collect these three items, I can go back twenty years to save myself, and after I leave, your six-year-old daughter's consciousness will naturally return."
Li Jiuhe didn't take the dagger, but stared blankly at the coffee table, nodding thoughtfully.
If the other party can really leave, he wouldn't mind helping this time traveler; at least doing so could save his real daughter.
But the most important thing right now is whether this time traveler lied to him.
Suddenly, a thought struck him: "You said that person was called a 'fear-eater,' and I... am called a 'task definer.' Could it be that we are actually the same kind of person?"
Li Yi shook her head: "Logically speaking, you have already exceeded the scope of ordinary humans. Every special ability user is different. But the Terror Eater is different from you. It does not eat normal human food. It lives by absorbing fear, and each time it absorbs fear, it ends with the death of its target. Therefore, it is extremely dangerous to humans. As for you, you are not a threat to other humans at all."
Li Jiuhe nodded, reached out and grabbed the silver-corroded dagger: "So, this dagger can also hurt me?"
Li Yi covered her mouth and laughed, "Dad, you've only just awakened, so your abilities are still very weak. Let alone this Silver Erosion Dagger, even ordinary knives could hurt you. But as you complete more and more missions, you'll become stronger. For now, just be careful not to get cut by the Silver Erosion Dagger."
Li Jiuhe examined the dagger in his hand, lost in thought.
This dagger seems to possess special power, which makes him really want to try it out and see if he can kill the transmigrator in front of him.
However, this would inevitably damage the daughter's body.
Without clarifying everything, rashly attacking this time traveler could plunge your real daughter into utter ruin.
After a brief consideration, he abandoned the plan.
"So what should I do now?" he asked.
Li Yi said, "Just like I did, try to get close to the Fear Eater, first pierce his heart with the Silver Erosion Dagger, and then cut off his tongue. Otherwise, once he notices your actions, it won't be easy to succeed."
Just how strong is he?
Li Jiuhe frowned, because he still vividly remembered the scene of his throat being slit by the other party.
"Actually, his attack power is not strong, but he can make your fear manifest instantly, and make you encounter the thing you have always been most afraid of."
Li Yi let out a long sigh as she finished speaking, seemingly still feeling suffocated as if she had been submerged in water.
Li Jiuhe nodded: "Then how do I find this person with cannibalism?"
Li Yi said, "He's injured, so he probably can't run very far. And in order to recover from his injuries as quickly as possible, he will definitely continue to create things that cause fear, and he will recover by absorbing human fear."
At this point, Li Yi leaned forward slightly, looking at Li Jiuhe.
"But the prerequisite is that you first need to familiarize yourself with...how...to...kill...someone."
……
The father and daughter didn't return to their respective bedrooms to rest until dawn.
Because he hadn't slept all night and was under a lot of mental stress, Li Jiuhe slept until 2 p.m. before waking up.
I woke up to the aroma of fried eggs. When I went to the kitchen, I saw Li Yi standing on a small wooden stool, having already cooked two bowls of oily noodle soup.
A fried egg was placed on top of the oily noodles, and the aroma made Li Jiuhe's appetite immediately whetted.
After washing up in the bathroom, he picked up his phone and asked the company for two extra days off.
He quickly finished his meal and then spent some time practicing with the silver-etched dagger that Li Yi had given him the night before.
According to Li Yi, the Silver Etched Dagger works the same as a regular knife against ordinary humans, but when dealing with people with special abilities, the runes on the dagger will play a special role in suppressing their abilities.
However, even though the ability of the Fear Eater was suppressed last night, it still caused Li Jiuhe and Li Yi to suffer a considerable loss.
Therefore, to eliminate the opponent, we still need to rely on Li Jiuhe's task definition ability, especially by constantly trying and failing through task resets. This might be the best way to find the best way to eliminate the food-phobic.
Li Jiuhe has been resting until now, and his reset points have been restored to the optimal level, which is the maximum of 6 points.
Now he has six chances, or six lives, in the process of handling the mission.
Now that I think about it, I realize that this ability of mine is actually quite extraordinary. After the two missions last night, Li Jiuhe has gained a deeper understanding of his ability as a "mission definer".
However, although he also wanted to find the phalloid as soon as possible, his thoughts were different from Li Yi's.
Why does Li Yi need the other person's tongue? She definitely wasn't telling herself the truth. So Li Jiuhe wants to get the real answer from the person with a fear of eating, instead of killing them as soon as she sees them.
Those with a fear of food are ruthless, and it may take some tricks to extract information from them.
Soon, Li Jiuhe went downstairs and bought Li Yi a cheap mobile phone and got her a new SIM card so that she could contact him immediately if anything happened.
He then put the silver-plated dagger into his men's satchel, told Li Yi to wait at home and not to leave again.
Meanwhile, I went outside to look for any trace of the person with food phobia.
In fact, Li Jiuhe has his own method for finding people with food phobia, which is task definition.
Using this method to find people with food phobia should be twice as effective.
