Keyboard Warrior's Otherworldly Adventure

The ghostly general floated closer, extending a massive, phosphorescent green claw that reached for Lin Na. Lin Na's expression changed, and she swung her longsword, unleashing a red sword aura to meet the attack.

"boom!"

The sword energy collided with the ghostly claw, producing a deafening roar that sent surrounding trees crashing down. However, the ghostly claw only paused briefly before continuing its attack on Linna.

Linna dodged the attack of the ghost claw with a flash, but the ghost claw suddenly turned and grabbed at Sophie.

"Sophie!" Li Jin shouted, rushing over without thinking and shoving Sophie away.

The ghostly claws gripped Li Jin's body...

A sharp pain shot through Li Jin, as if his soul were being torn apart. His vision went black, and he lost consciousness. In the dim light, he heard the system's cold voice:

"Ding! Damage to the host's soul detected. Emergency repair procedure is being initiated..." The system's voice was cold and mechanical, as if devoid of any emotion.

A wave of excruciating pain surged through Li Jin, one wave after another, assaulting his nerves. He felt as if his soul was being gripped and torn apart by an invisible hand, as if it were being ripped to pieces.

"Ah!" Li Jin couldn't help but let out a painful groan, his body trembling violently.

He heard Sophie and Xiaomei scream in terror beside him: "Li Jin!" "Sir!"

Their voices were filled with worry and fear, but Li Jin was powerless to respond, and didn't even have the strength to open his eyes.

His consciousness began to blur, and the world before him turned into darkness, as if he had fallen into a bottomless abyss, with endless darkness swallowing him up.

The system's cold, mechanical voice still echoed in his mind: "Ding! Host's soul has been severely damaged. Emergency repair program initiated... Estimated repair time: 72 hours..."

72 hours? Li Jin cursed inwardly: I'll be dead by now in 72 hours! This damn system, it messes up at the crucial moment!

He felt his consciousness becoming increasingly blurred, and eventually he completely lost consciousness.

Time passed slowly, and the cave remained silent except for the crackling of the campfire.

Sophie and Xiaomei stayed by Li Jin's side the whole time, never leaving his side. Their eyes were filled with worry and anxiety, and they dared not relax for a moment.

Sophie held Li Jin's hand tightly, feeling his faint pulse, and prayed in her heart that he would be safe and sound.

Xiao Mei kept wiping the sweat from Li Jin's forehead, afraid that he might have an accident due to the high fever.

For three days and three nights, they kept watch like this, without eating, drinking, or sleeping.

Finally, on the morning of the third day, Li Jin's eyelids twitched slightly.

"He moved!" Sophie exclaimed in surprise, her voice trembling slightly.

Xiao Mei excitedly came over, staring intently at Li Jin.

Li Jin slowly opened his eyes, everything in front of him was somewhat blurry. He felt sore all over, as if he had been run over by a truck.

"How long...how long have I been unconscious?" Li Jin's voice was hoarse and weak.

"Three days and three nights." Xiao Mei's voice was also a little hoarse, and her eyes were red, obviously she had been crying.

Three days and three nights?! Li Jin gasped, thankfully the system was powerful enough to pull him back from the brink of death. He touched his chest, where a dull ache still lingered, as if the ghostly claws of a demon general were still there.

"Where's Lin Na?" Li Jin looked around but didn't see Lin Na.

Sophie and Xiaomei exchanged a glance, their expressions somewhat complicated.

"She's gone," Sophie said. "She left after making sure you were alright."
