Chapter 180 High Speed Mother-in-law

The sharp claws, which almost turned into phantoms, came whistling, and the wind pressure brought by the power carried by the claws was even enough to blow off an ordinary person's scalp.

At the critical moment, Yang Liu tilted her head and let the water brush against her temple.

He subconsciously threw the steel bar in his hand at the demon, but the demon's body suddenly changed direction as if ignoring inertia and quickly moved away from Yang Liu at an exaggerated angle.

Before Yang Liu could figure out the type of the opponent, the second wave of attack from the hunchbacked humanoid demon had arrived.

She leaped onto the top wall of the tunnel on all fours, her ghost power exploded, and she dived down upside down!

boom!
Yang Liu curled up and rolled over, creating a spider web pit with a diameter of several meters where she was standing.

The flying gravel scratched her cheeks, and a few sharp stones even embedded into Yang Liu's body, and were pushed out of the skin by the rapidly regenerating granulation tissue.

Yang Liu raised her hand and the steel bar turned into a black light and flew towards the demon.

The roar of the engine sounded, and the demon's figure turned into a residual shadow and retreated, avoiding Yang Liu's attack.

"This ghost thing...could it be the high-speed mother-in-law?"

Looking at the other party's appearance and the abilities he displayed, and recalling the engine noise that erupted every time he moved, Yang Liu couldn't help but frown.

There is an urban legend circulating in Japan that if you drive a car on the highway late at night and the speed exceeds 100 kilometers, you will find an old woman appearing outside the window.

She was going very fast, even faster than the car speed.

This is the legend related to the "High Speed Grandma", which literally means an old woman who runs very fast.

It originally originated from a folk legend of Rokko Mountain in Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan.

This urban legend is very popular in Japan and there are many versions. In some places it is called "Sprint Grandma" and in some places it is called "Hundred Kilometer Grandma".

However, this urban legend is very unpopular in China and is completely incomparable to other urban legends such as the Slit-mouthed Woman and Hachishaku-sama.

However, the only thing that is certain is that the urban legend about the highway grandmother was definitely fabricated in modern times.

Because the Japanese name of Gaokao Grandma can be literally translated as "Turbo Grandma", and the first two words are "Turbo" which refers to the turbocharging technology, this urban legend has definitely not been around for long.

Depending on the version, the speed "setting" of the highway mother-in-law is also different, but the lowest is at least 100 kilometers per hour, and the highest can even reach 180 kilometers per hour.

This speed may not sound fast if it is used on a high-speed train or a racing car, but if converted, setting the highest speed means that the high-speed train can move 50 meters per second, which means that it can move half a playground in the blink of an eye.

"Tsk! This talent is too troublesome!"

Yang Liu dodged the enemy's attacks by stepping on the constantly crumbling concrete ground, and felt a little annoyed when she saw the high-speed woman in front of her moving irregularly like a ghost.

In terms of absolute speed, Yang Liu was confident that he would not be worse than the other party. Even if the highest speed was set, the speed of the mother-in-law was only 180 kilometers per hour. Before the evolution, Yang Liu's theoretical speed could exceed 200 kilometers per hour, and it could be maintained for a long time.

But the actual battle is another matter.

Due to the lack of friction, if you want to burst out at a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour, you must rely on crushing the ground to increase thrust. And to reach the maximum speed, it takes a certain amount of time to accelerate, both crushing the ground and accelerating.

Although the time taken is very short and it is still too late for ordinary people to react, there is an obvious "delay" in high-speed combat.

But the high-speed mother-in-law in front of him was completely different. Yang Liu had not yet figured out her specific abilities, but it was likely that she had a talent that allowed her to maintain her movement speed normally.

During the movement, whether the air resistance is too large, the friction is insufficient, or even the influence of inertia is reduced to a minimum, and the highest movement speed can be burst out anytime and anywhere.

After dodging the opponent's sharp claws and seeing that his counterattack had missed again, Yang Liu began to think with a headache.

Although she relied on her extraordinary reaction speed and dynamic vision to ensure that she would not be hit by the enemy's attacks, Yang Liu's own attacks were unable to hit the high-speed mother-in-law who could ignore inertia and kept moving at unimaginable angles.

"But it's not a good idea to keep on being stuck like this. We have to think of a solution..."

Recalling the settings mentioned in the urban legend about the highway grandma, Yang Liu quickly came up with an idea.

Once again dodging the claw attack of the high-speed mother-in-law, Yang Liu suddenly shouted as she watched the high-speed mother-in-law quickly escape to prevent her from counterattacking:
"Hey! Do you want to see who can run faster?!"

The highway lady who was running around in the tunnel suddenly stopped. As soon as she shouted this sentence, Yang Liu also felt that the space around her became illusory.

Although the surrounding environment did not seem to have changed, Yang Liu had experienced such scenes more than once. She knew that this meant that she seemed to have met certain conditions and was pulled into the territory of the highway mother-in-law.

Yang Liu laughed because this meant that she had asked the right question.

But the highway lady opposite him laughed even more happily, with a mocking smile on her old and skinny face: "Hahahahaha..."

Listening to the hoarse laughter of the other party, Yang Liu scratched his ears and looked nonchalant: "It seems that you are very confident. How about we compete to see who can run to the exit first?"

Grandma Gao, who had not shown any intention of communicating since the start of the battle, nodded when she heard this and took the initiative to stand on the starting line on the same side as Yang Liu.

"Oh? That's quite sportsmanlike. Let's get started..."

Before Yang Liu could finish her words, Grandma Gaosu had already turned into a black shadow and rushed out on all fours. The strong wind caused by her high-speed movement made Yang Liu messy in the wind.

"…race…shit! A false start?!"

Seeing the other person's departing back, Yang Liu reacted immediately, roared, swung his arms, took a step forward and chased after the highway mother-in-law.

It was a little slow at the beginning, but as the acceleration was completed, Yang Liu was reducing the gap between the two sides at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Unlike the ghostly and light figure of Grandma on the highway, Yang Liu had to dig a hole on the ground of the tunnel to gain leverage with every step he took, so that his running seemed exaggeratedly large.

The highway grandma who was originally feeling proud in the front was also startled by the movement behind her. She even thought that there was a monster chasing her.

As soon as she turned around, she saw Yang Liu's face approaching rapidly. In almost the blink of an eye, she caught up with him and ran to her side, keeping pace with him.
