Text Game: It All Began when a Cat-eared Girl Took Me In-Chapter 197 - 167 Liya: This young man has a decent character (4k)_1
"Wei’er and the others..."
Liya still wanted to ask Luo Xi about her two daughters when, at that moment, the fat man who had come in earlier pushed the door open and rushed in, speaking in an urgent tone:
"Liya, another large patch of snowfall has appeared! Hiss’s shadow is almost covering the sky over there, and there are many cracks in the sky. Isn’t this place of yours going to collapse?"
"Don’t panic, I’ll have a look."
Frowning, Liya walked to the window and lightly touched the opaque ice window.
The moment her hand touched the ice window, the icy pane instantly turned into countless tiny rune light spots, dissipating between her palms.
Whoosh—
Instantaneously, the bone-chilling wind, carrying heavy snow, swept into the room like blades of ice, slicing open Luo Xi’s clothes and even cutting off a small section of his hair.
"What the hell?"
Luo Xi immediately raised his hand to shield his face.
"Sorry, I forgot about you."
Liya tossed a ball of white light, condensed with numerous runes, back at Luo Xi, and when the light touched him, he felt his clothes being reassembled. The runes filled the gaps in the cotton, rewove the fabric, and moments later, he was clad in a brand-new coat.
As the wind and snow hit his coat, they were deflected away from his body on both sides, not touching him at all.
[Ding! Your clothes (Ordinary) have been enhanced and have temporarily upgraded to clothes (Rune Enhanced Version) (Effect duration: 48 hours)]
[Clothes (Rune Enhanced Version)]
[Quality: Green (Good) (Temporarily Improved)]
[Category: Daily Necessity]
[Attributes: Cold-resistance +300%, can ignore the effects of ordinary strong winds and heavy snow. Wearing it in a blizzard will continuously keep the wearer warm.]
[Description: A great coat for cold-resistance. The effects of strong winds and heavy snow will reduce the effective duration of its use. Once the rune’s power dissipates, it will revert to its original form.]
Luo Xi: "!"
This casual act of creation was truly like a miracle.
Think about it, the Rune Power Armor that allowed Luo Xi to beat the Rat King— from the Furnace Core to the other components—could also be said to have been conjured by Liya, and that was only a projection with part of Liya’s memories.
How formidable was the real Liya?
This much was clear.
The fat man walked up to Luo Xi, slapped him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "This is what a Creation Series Skill Practioner is like, amazing, right? But don’t think all Creation Series Skill Practioners are this powerful. It’s just that Liya is exceptional."
"Liya’s original attainment in rune skills was already top-notch. These past three years, she’s been dealing with the Divine Tree’s power every day. Her knowledge in runes has become much stronger than ever before. Even this entire house was made from runes."
"Back then, when Hiss let her open a private workshop in the Mansion of the City Lord, it wasn’t just because of her beauty—he had his eyes on this method of hers. But nobody expected that Hiss had such a deep hidden agenda..."
Luo Xi: "?"
What deep hidden agenda? Hiss?
Without turning her head, Liya looked toward the distance and said, "Don’t listen to his nonsense. I just utilized the high concentration of Yuan Su overflowing here from the Winter Divine Tree, guided and transformed it a bit. If it’s free, why not use it? If it were outside, I wouldn’t be so extravagant as to waste power."
So it’s not that she couldn’t do it, but that she didn’t want to waste power?
[Note: Garbage Traveler, did you see that? That’s what a true powerhouse is. Aren’t you going to kneel down quickly and pay homage to your future mother-in-law? Weren’t you shouting happily before?]
He dared not... He did not want to shout, damn it!
And what the hell was happening now?
A strong sense of crisis rose in Luo Xi’s heart, as if the end of the world could come at any moment.
He walked up to Liya’s side and looked up into the distance.
Luo Xi’s pupils instantly constricted.
What was that?
At the horizon of this ice valley, there appeared a figure as if made from drifting snowflakes, its outline humanoid, with a sinister crescent-like smile on the mouth.
Many ice flowers had bloomed on the nearby ice, swiftly spreading and growing, quickly encroaching upon a large area of the ground, before coming to a stop at a white Rune Barrier.
"Still can’t suppress it."
With a soft sigh cutting through the snowstorm, Liya said, "The runes I’ve altered can no longer affect him. In no more than two days, Hiss’s advancement will be complete. He will use the Winter Divine Tree as his chrysalis to emerge, beckoning the Snowice Disaster’s gaze, offering the lives of hundreds of thousands to become a Tier Five Snowice Disaster."
"What?"
The fat man immediately became frantic, exclaiming, "Really? Only two days left? I don’t want to die! My wife and kids are still waiting for me to come back home, Liya, you have to save us with your unbeatable Rune Skill!"
Liya threw a cold glance at the fat man, "Shut up! How about I throw you over there to delay his advancement?"
The fat man clammed up at once.
Luo Xi was thoroughly stunned.
Someone was going to use the Winter Divine Tree as a chrysalis?
Snowice Disaster?
What the hell was all this?
Weren’t Liya’s and Hill’s adoptive father already dead?
How come someone was still eyeing the Winter Divine Tree?
Wait, Hiss... that name, isn’t that the old City Owner?
[Ding! Your Shock Value +50]
[Note: Garbage Traveler, aren’t you surprised?]
Goddamn surprised? It’s more like a scare, damn it!
