The system is very abstract, fortunately I am also.

Chapter 500 I'm here to eat melon seeds, not to be the melon seed myself.
The super yellow dog in the closet is named Lü Minghuo, and the private under the bed is named Lü Mingyan. They are from the same generation, so it is obvious that the "older brother" and "younger brother" they are talking about are probably related by blood.

Let's put it more bluntly—these are practically brothers, aren't they?

That means that Little Yellow cheated on Little Green without his knowledge, while Big Yellow cheated on both his brother and Little Green without their knowledge.

Ok.

Your circle is really chaotic.

But suddenly I understand why they all have blond hair. However, Big Yellow and Little Yellow avoid each other, not because they are having an affair and naturally have to be more careful, but simply because they are a little embarrassed.
The three like-minded people looked at each other in bewilderment, while Anping herself, the road's inhabitant, also made a beautiful disappearance.

"Minghuo, why are you here?"

"Why were you hiding in the closet?!"

“Tell your brother, you’re here to fix the cabinet, right?!” Little Yellow looked shocked, and the hand he pointed at Big Yellow seemed to be trembling slightly.

Was he spitting out his own brother's food?

So I just counted how many hundreds of millions of nephews and nieces I've eaten?

Do not! ! !
This kind of thing needs to be treated with tonics—

"Haha," Da Huang chuckled awkwardly upon hearing this, not accepting the absurd explanation, and said embarrassedly, "Actually... actually, it's because I hear painful groans coming from here every night, and I suspect someone is abusing me, so I hid in the closet to record evidence..."

Now it seems I misunderstood, haha.

Lin Li, Xiao Huang, and Xiao Lü: "?"

This doesn't sound like a reason that a human could come up with.

Xiao Lü began to tremble, and the light from the electric arc even overshadowed the original light in the room.

Perhaps Little Green is particularly envious of Louis XVI now, after all, at least Louis XVI's wife wouldn't cuckold him, or at least she would give him a green necklace, which is much more expensive than a hat.

"Don't be impulsive, Brother Wen, calm down, calm down first." Seeing that Xiao Lü seemed unable to suppress her desire to take action, Da Huang urged her quickly.

Lin Li originally planned to take out a chair, popcorn, and cola, sit down, and enjoy watching the show. After all, this was the bloodbath he was most looking forward to. Unfortunately, the task on the system panel was not yet completed.

If Big Yellow dies, this mission may never be completed.

"boom--"

Therefore, Lin Li snapped his fingers with a sound like thunder, drawing everyone's attention.

Lin Li then clapped his hands politely:
"Ladies and gentlemen, before your disputes begin, you should all know that I have no relationship with this woman. The reason I am in this room is indeed due to some unforeseen circumstances that are not convenient to talk about, right?"

"This concerns my reputation and is very important to me, so I must emphasize this and make sure you are aware of it."

Xiao Lü nodded subconsciously: "Sorry."

Little Yellow and Big Yellow's eyes darted around, and Lin Li suspected that they were trying to muddy the waters as much as possible.

An Ping acted even faster, and wanting to divert attention, she directly questioned loudly: "So who exactly are you? What kind of accident could have caused you to end up under someone else's bed? At a time like this, even if it's inconvenient to say, you have to say it, right?"

Xiao Lü was taken aback upon hearing this, but calmed down a bit, frowned as she looked at Lin Li, and waited for his reply.

Lin Li: "I hid under the bed to record evidence because I heard painful groans coming from here every night. I suspected someone was abusing me."

Xiao Lü, Xiao Huang, and An Ping: "?"

rhubarb:"()!!"

"Sorry, sorry, I couldn't resist doing something like this." Looking at the four people with different expressions, Lin Li couldn't help but laugh and scratch his head, then coughed twice to clear his throat:
"Alright, since you're all determined to know, I won't hide it from you anymore. It's related to the ability I awakened."

Anyway, if you have superpowers in the apocalypse, it's no problem to pin the blame on that; they should be able to understand themselves.

Although it wouldn't matter if he directly revealed the fact that he could travel through time, the relationship between the four people in front of him was too complicated, and Lin Li couldn't even judge their positions. He didn't want to tell them the truth at all.

"Awakening? Isn't your awakening in the same direction as mine—the lightning side?"

As Little Green spoke, the electric arcs all over its body seemed to respond to its words.

“Wait, now that you mention it, it’s not just that,” Xiao Huang, his former roommate, added seriously at this moment, “When I was under the bed, I saw this person use the ability of the flame side with my own eyes.”

"So... it's an even rarer type of awakening that combines all elements, but that doesn't make sense. How could such an awakening allow him to enter someone else's room without being noticed? That doesn't make sense."

Big Yellow nodded, its gaze fixed on Lin Li, and it became slightly more serious.

“I remember very clearly that there has never been a member in Lighthouse City. His clothes and appearance are so conspicuous that I cannot be mistaken. He is not listed in the recent entry and exit logs either.”

Perhaps it was because Da Huang's job at this shelter was related to this, because as soon as he finished speaking confidently, the expressions of the others changed again.

"..."

"..."

An outsider? Or an outsider who arrived without any prior notice or warning? Judging from what we just saw, their strength is considerable.

Realizing this, the four exchanged glances and nodded almost imperceptibly.

The atmosphere changed in an instant.

Lin Li: "Oo?"

Looking at his three brothers-in-law who were quietly adjusting their positions as if trying to surround him, he suddenly realized that he had gone from being a bystander to the real culprit.

"Why do you all seem like you're about to take action?" Lin Li spread his hands helplessly. "I was just worried you might misunderstand, so I wanted to clarify things so you know I have nothing to do with this. Then you can continue dealing with your internal disputes; I won't get involved."

"As you said yourself, this is an internal dispute between us." Xiao Lü looked at Lin Li with a serious expression.

"But now, your identity has become a more pressing external issue for us, and we have to put the internal disputes aside."

"If you don't mind, could we break your hand? Don't worry, we have healing Awakened Ones in our city. After we've examined and questioned you to make sure you're harmless, we can completely heal this injury."

Lin Li thought Xiao Lü was quite polite.

I glanced at the system; the task wasn't finished yet.

Theoretically speaking, these four people should be very clear by now that they are not here to have an affair with An Ping, which means that the "image building" part of the mission has not yet been completed?

Before Lin Li could have much time to think, the four people opposite him had already launched their attack.

Little Green took the initiative, pushing out with both palms, and two blue-white electric snakes, several times thicker than before, roared out and rushed straight at Lin Li's face.

But this was the hardest to maintain; the electric arcs leaped, illuminating the composed smile on Lin Li's face.

When you were peeing on exposed electrical wires, you weren't even born yet... but you were born anyway.

"Heh, such a trivial skill, yet you dare to show off your amateur skills before an expert."

After deliberately saying that, Lin Li didn't even raise his hand to block, letting the violent lightning strike. When the lightning touched within a foot of his body, it vanished instantly like a mud ox entering the sea, without even lifting a single hair from his head.

Lin Li gave a thumbs up: "Thank you, my battery is fully charged."

Little Green's pupils constricted sharply, incredulous: "How is this possible?!"

The moment the lightning dissipated, Xiao Huang had already approached like a cannonball.

Lin Liben had already speculated about the direction of his awakening, and now he was even more certain. He saw his muscles bulging and veins popping out as he delivered a straightforward straight punch, accompanied by a piercing sound of air being torn apart!
This punch encapsulated his full potential as a power-type awakened being.

Strong teeth!
"His strength is acceptable, but his intention is too clumsy," Lin Li said calmly.

of course,

Surface: Faint.

Inner monologue: "Charge up, activate! Harden, activate!"

To the others, Lin Li didn't move, but casually raised his left hand, spread his fingers, and lightly met Xiao Lü's fist, which was as big as a clay pot.

"boom!"

With a muffled thud, a shockwave exploded outwards from the two people, sending debris flying everywhere in the room.

Okay, it's not that fantastical. The two were just grappling with each other, but Xiao Huang's punch, which was indeed powerful enough to split rocks, was steadily caught by Lin Li with a single palm.

Lü Mingyan's eyes widened.

He was prepared to withstand the flames or lightning, but he didn't expect Lin Li to fight him with brute force.

What he didn't expect was that at the moment his fist and palm collided, he felt as if he had struck a towering mountain wall. The force of the impact caused him excruciating pain in his arm and his finger bones felt like they were about to crack.

Xiao Huang's face turned red, and despite his best efforts, he couldn't budge Lin Li an inch.

With veins bulging, Xiao Huang shouted and swung his other hand at Lin Li.

Lin Li did not use his free left hand to catch it. Instead, he temporarily released his right hand and stopped facing the enemy head-on. As a result, he lost his center of gravity and Xiao Huang fell towards Lin Li.

Lin Li seized the opportunity, sidestepping forward to dodge Xiao Huang. At the same time, his free left hand suddenly grabbed out of thin air, and an exquisite jade comb appeared in his hand. He casually combed the few strands of hair that had been blown out of his forehead, his movements elegant and composed.

"Damn, I accidentally triggered a perfect dodge."

Reality is not a turn-based game. Da Huang had already made his move. His body became as soft as rubber, and his arms stretched out strangely, like two tough leather whips. With a whistling sound, they wrapped around Lin Li's legs, one on the left and one on the right, trying to restrict his movements.

At the same time, his body hardened, and his knees pounded into Lin Li's waist and abdomen like hammers.

"You also have the Nika Fruit?" Lin Li had already noticed this, but without even looking at his feet, he lightly stomped his left foot on the ground: "Unfortunately, you don't even have Haki, so you're just a chicken or a dog."

"Om."

The Earth element technique in the "Essential Techniques of the Five Elements" comes into play.

An invisible shockwave spread out, and the "rubber arm" that had been wrapped around it was as if it had been cut by an invisible blade, instantly losing its strength and bouncing away.

At the same time, the crowbar on the ground flew towards his body, forcibly interrupting his knee strike and causing him to stagger backward.

"Holding the sun and moon in my hands, plucking stars from the sky—there is no one like me in this world—"

Lin Li murmured, his eyes looking down arrogantly, and without turning his head, easily caught Xiao Huang's fist from behind, twisting it forcefully with his palm.

"Crack!"

A sickening cracking sound rang out, and Xiao Huang let out a shrill scream as his wrist twisted at an eerie angle.

Lin Li also wanted to test his "power" without suppressing his Foundation Establishment cultivation level under normal conditions, so he circulated spiritual energy throughout his body and, with the power amplification, forcefully hurled Xiao Huang against the wall.

"Boom!" A shallow crater was smashed into the wall. Little Yellow coughed up blood, collapsed to the ground, clutching his severed wrist and groaning in pain, completely incapacitated.

Tsk, with that kind of strength, if you played a brain-twisting game with someone in real life, you'd probably knock them black and blue.

Seeing this, Xiao Lü's eyes widened in fury. Without regard for anything else, she gathered all the electricity in her body again, clasped her hands together, and a thicker, almost solidified pillar of lightning slammed into Lin Li's back.

Lin Li didn't even turn around, and he didn't know why Xiao Lü was so stubborn.

"The battery is currently at 80%. To maximize battery life, charging has been paused and will be fully charged before 6:00 AM."

With a smile, Lin Li waved his hand. The originally violent lightning pillar seemed to have met its nemesis. It was drawn and decomposed by a gentle but irresistible force, turning into countless tiny electric snakes that scattered and eventually disappeared into the air.

"The Pure and Righteous Thunder Control Method" is, after all, an infallible method certified by Lao Deng. In addition, Lao Deng added all his insights and wisdom to this method, making him able to control all kinds of thunder as easily as using his own arms. He could easily defeat the thunder of a mere awakened being.

Despite the discomfort, Da Huang's body softened again, like a slippery eel, and it pounced on Lin Li from the side, its five fingers pressed together like knives, stabbing straight into Lin Li's ribs, attempting to use its body's flexibility to engage in close combat.

The Fire-Nourishing Sword Gourd that appeared in his hand flashed, and a huge, silvery object appeared out of thin air—it was a huge stainless steel basin!
"when!!!"

The basin hit the charging yellow dog with perfect accuracy; it wasn't very aggressive, but it was extremely insulting.

Even though it was in a softened state, there was still an extra groove at the bottom of the basin, turning it from 99% new to 95% new.

But as a price, Dahuang was instantly smashed from "mud" into a "pancake" and slammed hard onto the floor with a dull thud.

But the basin, under the control of the "invisible sword," continued to pound on his body. Big Yellow gradually saw stars, and his softening ability began to fail. He collapsed on the ground, panting heavily.

As for An Ping, it's unclear whether it's because she wasn't an Awakened One or because her awakened abilities weren't suited for combat, but she didn't make a move at all.

Of course, Lin Li never let his guard down and kept a close eye on her.

When Lin Li slammed Xiao Huang against the wall, especially when she made a deep dent, her position began to move towards the door. However, a bolt of lightning that Lin Li casually flicked out caused her legs to lose all feeling.

At this moment, the battle has come to an end.

Xiao Huang broke his wrist, vomited blood, and collapsed against the wall.

Big Yellow was dazed and confused after being hit by the basin, and lay on the ground groaning.

Xiao Lü wasn't seriously injured, but it seemed that the lightning he released had exceeded his strength limit, leaving him exhausted. He was pale-faced, kneeling on the ground, his eyes filled with disbelief as he looked at Lin Li.

Anping called out in the silver.

Lin Li stood still, his clothes fluttering, spotless.

With a casual gesture, the stainless steel basin transformed into a streak of light and flew back to the gourd.

He dusted off non-existent dust, his gaze swept over the three disheveled figures, and finally settled on Little Green, the only one who could barely maintain her posture.

“Now,” Lin Li said in a light and casual tone, “I meant no harm. Anyway, you said you have healers here, so this kind of injury is nothing to you. So this was just me playing around because I was a kid.”

The room was deathly silent, save for the groans of the injured and their heavy breathing.

Task 2 is complete.

[You have received the following rewards: Physical Improvement: Lifespan increased by 20%; Random System-Oriented Item *1; System Currency *100]

You have received a "100-50 coupon"*1.

[100-50 Coupon: Valid for purchasing items in the store priced over 100 System Currency, deducting 50 System Currency.]

This image is truly something that would make them submit!

Lin Li had originally planned to reveal his true identity to these people after the battle if the mission was still not completed, but now it seems that he doesn't need to.

Now that the mission is complete, and judging from the current state of the four, they probably aren't in the mood to discuss how to deal with the blond guy, so there's no need for me to stay here any longer; there's no more drama to watch.

Sigh, all things considered, Little Yellow and Big Yellow should thank themselves.

"We became friends after our initial encounter, but I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now."

Lin Li prepared to go out and see what this refuge, which was suspected to be called "Lighthouse," was all about.

"Creak--"

However, before Lin Li could walk to the door, the door opened by itself.

There was no one outside the door, as if it were being blown by an invisible wind.

But the living room is right outside the door.

Lin Li frowned slightly; having just experienced a farce, his nerves were not completely relaxed.

The way the door opened was too strange; something was wrong!

Almost instinctively, Lin Li's mind raced, and his already activated "hardening" ability instantly kicked in.

"Bang! Bang!!"

First came two loud gunshots. Lin Li felt an impact on the outside of his left and right thighs, as if he had been hit by small stones at high speed.

Looking down, I saw two brand-new holes in my trousers. Through the holes, I could see two clear white marks on my skin, which were slightly red, but the skin was not broken.

If it hasn't hardened, then it's hard to say.

Lin Li's eyes narrowed, and he instantly understood the possible methods of the newcomer.

The hardening ability continues to operate, extending the defense range to the whole body, especially vital areas such as the joints of the limbs, and the degree of hardening is increased.

With a thought, a can of formula dispenser appeared in his hand. Without hesitation, he unscrewed the cap and swung his arm sharply!
"Crack-!"

The snow-white milk powder was splashed onto the entrance area like a waterfall.

The once empty doorway was suddenly covered with powdery milk particles that quickly formed a blurry human figure.

A transparent, gun-wielding figure outlined in white powder, moving in motion, suddenly appeared.

However, this manifestation effect was extremely short-lived. The milk powder particles attached to the figure seemed to be repelled or assimilated by some force, and were rapidly becoming transparent and dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye. The outline of the figure also blurred again, and it looked like it was about to re-merge into the air.

However, the milk powder's invisibility didn't matter, because Lin Li's divine sense had already firmly locked onto the location and general shape of that blurry outline—a male humanoid figure about 1.75 meters tall and of medium build.

"Hardening" has very limited resistance to firearms, so Lin Li no longer hesitated when faced with the opponent's move to fire.

With a flick of his wrist, the "Two Elements Dust Barrier" appeared, and Lin Li activated it without hesitation.

【Two Elements Dust Barrier: After refining, it can unfold a maze-like area when used. The user's figure and aura are greatly weakened and concealed within it, and it can disrupt the enemy's divine sense detection and attack lock-on. The user is not affected in any way.

The types, areas, and maintenance costs of the illusion will increase, expand, or decrease as the level of refinement deepens.

"Mist!"

"Om-!"

With a soft hum, a thick, grayish-white fog suddenly appeared out of nowhere, centered on Lin Li, and spread rapidly as if it were alive.

The thick fog instantly filled the entire room, completely engulfing Lin Li's figure.

In the mist, the figures and presence of the forest seemed to be completely erased, becoming blurry and elusive.

The fog greatly interfered with the invisible man's perception; he could see almost nothing in his field of vision.

The room was filled with people, and he dared not even believe in shooting.

It seemed that it too had fallen into a brief state of confusion and hesitation due to the sudden fog, and its movement became sluggish.

After a brief hesitation, he seemed to be preparing to leave the room.

But Lin Li naturally wouldn't give him that chance.

Without any fancy moves, his right hand was infused with hardened power and spiderweb-like lightning patterns. With a whooshing sound, it accurately struck the opponent's chest and abdomen, which were slightly revealed in surprise.

"boom!"

A muffled sound!
Before the invisible man could even scream, his body arched violently as if he had been hit by a speeding truck. He was sent flying backward and crashed heavily into the corridor wall with a loud thud before collapsing limply to the ground, completely losing consciousness.

His invisibility effect seemed to have failed due to loss of consciousness, and the figure of a strange man wearing ordinary combat uniform with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth was clearly revealed.

The other party was using a gun, so Lin Li couldn't be as careful as before, and he didn't even need to consider the degree of force he used.

He stepped forward and casually put the gun into his "Qiankun Ring". The clothes were also good, and it seemed that he hadn't torn them. He also took them off. The pants... well, the pants were pretty tight. It would probably take some time. He didn't have time.

After quickly "scavenging" the spoils, Lin Li pushed the mist of "Two Elements Dust Barrier" further out the door.

Undoubtedly, the four people in the room used methods they hadn't discovered or noticed to call for reinforcements.

It's unlikely that the reinforcements consist of only one invisible figure.

Along with the mist, there were also countless divine consciousnesses.

Sure enough, within the area he could sense, there were several people crouching outside the door, each armed with a gun or a weapon whose shape he couldn't discern by light alone.

Those who were initially approaching hesitated and retreated as the mist dissipated.

Turning around, I saw that there were no windows in the room.

The choice now facing Lin Li is—

A: A warrior with burning passion!

Let's have a good fight with those guys outside who seem to be all Awakened! Kill! Kill! Kill! Die! Die! Die!

A mere bullet! A mere fatal wound!

B: A cowardly assassin!
Relying on the existence of the "Two Elements Dust Barrier," they stealthily sneaked out, and combined with the title of "Putting on their pants and not recognizing anyone," they destroyed all clues until they escaped alive!

I bet even thermal imaging technology can't see through the illusion of "Two Elements Dust Barrier"!! Cultivation technology should surpass modern technology!!
C: Mechanical Ascension!
My "A+ Combat Armor" is not a figurine!!
I'm exhausted! Gundam stance, ready to strike!
"..."

The thought of having so many trump cards made Lin Li hum softly involuntarily.

Decided!
I'll choose you!
—D: Obtuse angle!
next second.

The mist of "Two Elements Dust Barrier" disappeared from this world along with Lin Li.

I'm outta here, I'm done playing.

(End of this chapter)
