Global Awakening: Eavesdropping on the SSS-level School Beauty's Inner Voice-Chapter 137 - 136: The Yellow Clothes Church is back! How did they determine Huang Yiyi’s location?
Chapter 137: Chapter 136: The Yellow Clothes Church is back! How did they determine Huang Yiyi’s location?
"Lin... Tian... Ming... I remember now, new friend!"
Huang Yiyi could no longer remember when she last made a friend, but she was still very happy that Lin Tianming wasn’t afraid of the strange black mist surrounding her and was willing to be her friend.
Like her youthful face that doesn’t age with time, her mind, after all this time, was still that of the young girl from before.
To become friends with this girl, who might be the Deceit God, Lin Tianming was somewhat impressed with himself.
"Lin Tianming... the ice cream is gone again, I... I want more!"
Hearing Huang Yiyi wanting more ice cream, Lin Tianming readily satisfied her request.
"No problem, since we’re friends, I’ll just call you Yiyi, and you can call me Tianming. Come on, Yiyi, let’s go back to the store we visited before to buy more ice cream!"
"Okay, Tianming!"
Perhaps it had been too long since she last made a friend, Huang Yiyi was very affectionate towards Lin Tianming, who was willing to be her friend.
After spending some more time with Huang Yiyi, who he had successfully calmed down, Lin Tianming received a message from Hua Yufei saying she would be there soon.
Once he confirmed Hua Yufei would arrive soon, Lin Tianming immediately replied that he would go to the agreed place to wait for her.
After replying to Hua Yufei’s message, Lin Tianming took a look at Huang Yiyi, who was eating her ice cream non-stop, and ordered her one last different-flavored ice cream.
"Yiyi, we should get going. Let’s eat while we walk!"
"Okay!"
Huang Yiyi didn’t overthink it; being completely won over by Lin Tianming’s ice cream, she simply followed him as they left.
Lin Tianming had set the meeting place with Hua Yufei in a quiet, secluded street where there were few people.
This way, even if Huang Yiyi chose to flee in the end and her emotions uncontrollably unleashed the black mist, it wouldn’t spread far and hurt innocent people in the short term.
Because once she transformed into the Holy Golden Butterfly and fled, the black mist she released would dissipate along with her.
However, on their way to meet Hua Yufei, Lin Tianming noticed that they seemed to be followed.
He pretended to not notice anything and carefully sensed the surroundings.
Quickly, Lin Tianming detected the presence of five Awakeners with incredibly eerie and sinister auras.
Not the Demonic Qi of demons, but rather the auras of Awakeners were so strange, it reminded Lin Tianming of the two Level 75 Yellow Clothes Church members from the previous night.
These five persons were most likely members of the Yellow Clothes Church as well!
As Lin Tianming and Huang Yiyi gradually moved away from the crowd, the five Yellow Clothes Church members seemed eager to act.
Lin Tianming couldn’t feel the specific levels of these five people, which meant their levels were far beyond the range he could sense.
Without a doubt, these five were probably around the same level as the two Yellow Clothes Church members from the previous night.
His easy capture of the two men last night was entirely because he took advantage of their weakened state after being ravaged by Huang Yiyi’s strange black mist.
If it came down to a real fight, his regular means would definitely stand no chance against those two Level 75 Yellow Clothes Church members.
Now, there was still some distance to go before they reached the meeting place arranged with Hua Yufei, and she would undoubtedly arrive at the meeting spot later than them.
If they could hold out until Hua Yufei arrived, Lin Tianming wasn’t too worried about not being able to handle these Yellow Clothes Church members with conventional means.
But what if they couldn’t hold out?
With this thought, Lin Tianming, who only had a single-target Super Position Forbidden Curse ability, narrowed his eyes slightly.
Divine Hand - Duplicate!
Quietly using the Duplicate Ability of the Divine Hand, Lin Tianming pretended to not notice anything while he secretly checked the skills of the five Yellow Clothes Church members, trying to find in the shortest amount of time the key skill that could help him break the situation.
At times like this, the Duplicate and Plunder abilities of the Divine Hand were clearly more reliable and could further amplify the power of skills below the level of a Super Position Forbidden Curse.
These five people were Fire, Wood, Earth, and Dark - four types of Elemental Attribute superpower Awakeners.
Two fire attribute superpower awakeners, and one of each of the other three attributes.
This was Lin Tianming’s first encounter with a dark attribute superpower awakener.
The reason why the earth attribute wasn’t considered was that Lin Tianming had previously met Meng Xiyue, who possessed the earth attribute divine beast Desolate Split Tiger.
After carefully studying the skills of the five individuals, Lin Tianming cautiously selected three skills to duplicate.
Having completed the duplication, he continued to move towards the increasingly deserted destination without drawing attention.
At the same time, Lin Tianming pondered a question.
That was, how did the Yellow Clothes Church locate Huang Yiyi so quickly after losing track of her?
It couldn’t just be a coincidence, like how he stumbled upon her, could it?
Lin Tianming seriously suspected that they must have some special method of tracking Huang Yiyi.
Last night, Hua Yufei used her superpower to make those two members of the Yellow Clothes Church spill all the intel they knew, yet there was no mention of the method to track Huang Yiyi, nor the whereabouts of the Yellow Clothes Church’s main base.
It was evident that the two were not truly core members of the Yellow Clothes Church.
At level 75, which was considered high-level, but without access to the core, it seemed the Yellow Clothes Church was not as simple as he had imagined.
When Lin Tianming and Huang Yiyi finally entered a secluded street void of people, those five Yellow Clothes Church members who had been itching to move also couldn’t hold back and blocked their path.
Suddenly being stopped, Huang Yiyi, who was enjoying ice cream, was terribly frightened.
"Please come back with us, your faithful believers need your power!"
One of them gave a respectful bow, revealing a chilling smile.
Huang Yiyi fought back her inner fear and refused to leave with them.
"I... I don’t recognize you... stop... stop looking for me!"
"There’s no need to be afraid, my lord, we are your most devoted believers, the least likely to harm you. You don’t remember anything right now because you are not accustomed to your human form, but if you come back with us, we will help you recall the great existence that you are!"
As the leader spoke, he revealed a frighteningly manic expression that would terrify any normal person, their body sometimes emanating demonic qi like that of a demon due to excessive excitement.
The remaining four individuals also showed almost pathologically obsessed expressions after the mention of Huang Yiyi’s identity, with trickles of demonic qi continuously seeping out of them.
But Lin Tianming was sure that they were not demons possessed by demon beings.
Perhaps this is the attitude that awakeners who believe in the Deceit God should have?
The strange, sinister aura on the two Yellow Clothes Church members he had encountered last night was not released before he knocked them out and looted their bodies, which presumably also hid demonic qi.
Thinking this, Lin Tianming became even more vigilant towards these five individuals.
Seeing the group of Yellow Clothes Church members with their maniacal expressions and chilling demonic qi, Huang Yiyi was reminded of the unsettling memories that plagued her.
A feeling of unease spread, and Huang Yiyi’s body began to emit a sinister aura similar to, but more terrifying than, demonic qi.
With the unfinished ice cream dropping to the ground, Huang Yiyi’s emotions began to crumble: "I’m not a monster... I’m not... I’m not..."
Sensing the change in Huang Yiyi’s emotions and to prevent her from disappearing in her distress, Lin Tianming immediately grasped her arm.
"Yiyi, I’m here to protect you, and they won’t take you away! Calm down, don’t let that dark mist spread and harm innocent people, you’re not a monster, I know you don’t want to harm anyone!"
With Lin Tianming’s words of comfort, Huang Yiyi’s eyes gradually cleared, and the strange black mist swirling around her dissipated once more.
After calming Huang Yiyi down, Lin Tianming turned a cold gaze towards the five Yellow Clothes Church members.
"Leave now, and I can pretend I didn’t see you this time, otherwise it’ll be too late!"
Faced with Lin Tianming’s warning, the five Yellow Clothes Church members laughed mockingly, utterly disregarding him.
"Foolish brat, you have no idea who you’re messing with, today I will show you the dire consequences of opposing the Yellow Clothes Church!"
In the midst of speaking, the leading Yellow Clothes Church member released a dark shadow attack on Lin Tianming, like an evil ghost.
