ACSP: Chapter 120: Burning Together, Even in Death, I'll Drag Someone Down With Me!
"Didn't you claim you could revive infinitely?"
"Now that your dog doesn't even have a corpse left, why don't you try reviving another one for me?"
Jiang Chen withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Old Granny Yan, his eyes filled with a teasing glint.
In his eyes, the concept of infinite resurrection was utter nonsense.
Although the [Reincarnation of Self] was a divine resurrection technique capable of bringing people back from the dead.
The person being revived had to meet one condition: having a complete corpse.
Damaged organs could be transplanted.
But if there wasn't even a corpse left, what could she use to revive them?
"I didn't expect you to possess such a terrifying Fire Release skill. It seems I truly underestimated you before..."
Old Granny Yan's expression turned exceptionally ugly at this moment.
When Lei Li had stormed in earlier, although she was surprised, she hadn't lost her composure.
Because she was confident she could keep Lei Li here forever.
But now.
After witnessing Jiang Chen's methods.
She was finally panicking.
You see.
That Nie Tai was not just a Puppeteer.
He was also a Kage-level Contractor who possessed the [Magnet Release Bloodline Limit].
The Magnet Release sand puppets he had developed could not only infinitely reconstruct their bodies and were immune to all attacks.
They could even use the properties of sand to form puppets of various shapes.
Other Puppeteers had to carry their puppets with them when traveling.
But he didn't need to.
He only needed to carry sand.
Because the sand was his puppet.
However, Old Granny Yan had never imagined.
That such a powerful Puppeteer.
Would be killed twice in such a short period of time.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes.
She wouldn't have believed it in her dreams.
"—Bang!"
Just as Old Granny Yan was deep in thought, a white shadow suddenly flew over from nearby and slammed heavily at her feet.
That white shadow was one of the puppets from her three sets of Chikamatsu Ten Puppets.
Old Granny Yan looked up.
She saw Lei Li walking over, stepping on the remains of her white-clad puppets, holding a puppet head that resembled a bull's head.
"Brother Jiang Chen, leave this old hag's life to me..."
Lei Li walked up to Jiang Chen holding the puppet head, then squeezed his hand, crushing the bull's head to pieces.
"Hall Master Lei, it seems you've found a good helper this time. It's a pity my puppet army hasn't finished production yet. If you had given me a little more time, let alone the two of you, even if those guys from the Evil God Organization came together, I wouldn't have taken them seriously..."
Old Granny Yan sighed heavily, reached into her cloth bag, took out a black pill, and swallowed it.
"Is it a bit late to think about eating a military ration pill now?"
Lei Li snorted coldly, and the black lightning on his body instantly surged.
However, just as he was preparing to act.
Old Granny Yan suddenly laughed.
"Do you think that at a time like this, I would still bother eating that useless thing?"
As she spoke, she extended her hand, which looked like withered wood, and removed her clothes.
"Jiang Chen, you possess a Fire Release skill capable of burning everything. I suppose the Immortal Body I just obtained from Qin Hao is useless against you. Since that's the case, let's be buried together here in Puppet City..."
As Old Granny Yan finished speaking, all her clothes fell to the ground.
What was revealed beneath her clothing was not the flesh and blood of a human.
But a skeleton pieced together from steel blocks.
It was just that those bones were connected by a large number of Chakra threads.
Only the heart area still retained the original flesh.
It looked just like a modified robot.
"You crazy old hag, you actually modified your own body into a puppet?"
Lei Li's brows knitted tightly, his eyes filled with shock.
He never imagined that Old Granny Yan would be crazy to this extent.
Modifying her own body into a puppet, did she not want to be human anymore?
"Hehe~"
Old Granny Yan smiled faintly, her tone revealing a sense of determination: "The human flesh is fragile and weak. Growing old means suffering from illness and pain; it is far from the perfection of a puppet body. It is a pity that my puppet modification technique is not yet refined enough to modify my own heart as well. Otherwise, why would I have compromised with that Qin Hao?"
Just as Old Granny Yan was speaking, Jiang Chen suddenly noticed that the thin Chakra threads connecting her body parts were gradually turning blood red.
A vague sense of crisis welled up in his heart, causing his expression to change abruptly.
Recalling what he had said to Old Granny Yan earlier.
He instantly realized something was wrong.
"Not good, she's going to self-destruct..."
"What?"
Lei Li's eyes widened, an expression of disbelief on his face.
However, before he could make another move.
Old Granny Yan's voice rang in his ears again: "Only realizing it now? It's too late..."
As the words fell.
Old Granny Yan's body suddenly flashed with dazzling red light.
Immediately after.
A suffocatingly dangerous aura instantly radiated from her body, enveloping the entire Puppet City.
"Damn it, this cursed crazy hag! Brother Jiang Chen, run!"
Lei Li grabbed Jiang Chen and turned to run.
But it was one step too late.
Almost the moment he turned around.
The puppet energy erupting from within Old Granny Yan's body finally reached its limit.
"—Rumble!!!"
With a deafening roar spreading out.
In an instant.
With Puppet City as the center, the area within a ten-mile radius was instantly swallowed by a pillar of fire shooting into the sky.
What Old Granny Yan detonated at this moment was not just her own puppet body, but the entire Puppet City.
This Puppet City had been modified by her own hands back in the day, and a large number of explosive tags and explosives were buried inside.
Only the puppet mechanisms on her body could detonate them.
And at this moment.
Old Granny Yan knew she had no way out.
So she made the decision to burn together with her enemies without hesitation!
When that huge mushroom cloud rose up.
Everything within a ten-mile radius of Puppet City had been razed to the ground.
"Oh no, Old Granny Yan triggered the demolition mechanism of Puppet City! What on earth did Jiang Chen and the others do there? They actually forced Old Granny Yan to blow up the entire Puppet City without hesitation..."
Just as Li Dala and Song She approached the perimeter of Puppet City on their clay bird, they were hit head-on by the shockwave from the explosion, sending them flying back several hundred meters.
"It seems that your Puppet City's Old Granny Yan is also a lunatic..."
Song She kept his eyes locked on the massive mushroom cloud rising into the sky, unable to help but worry about Jiang Chen's safety.
Oh, Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen.
I just joined you; you had better not die on me.
Don't forget, you still owe me a reincarnation body of a Super-Kage Level Contractor!
