Superman Termination Manual - Chapter 390

Chapter 390: Chapter 216: Pac-Man Game, Magical Girl Kokonoe Sakura_2

“As she said that, Hongyue released Qing Meng from her arms.”

She stared at the Pac-Man, using several skills in succession to stack buffs, with skill prompts like [Magic Power Explosion] and [Power Loan] popping up incessantly over her head, the text almost overlapping.”

Right after that, the pixelated Hongyue crouched down, ready to unleash Sword Draw Strike.”

However, in the next instant, before she could swing her sword, the Pac-Man swallowed her figure whole.”

[Player “Paranoia” has died.]

Seeing this, Qing Meng quickly fled.”

But in the next moment, the Pac-Man suddenly turned its head and rushed toward Qing Meng, standing on the first horizontal bar, mouth agape.”

Seeing this, Qing Meng jumped down from the horizontal bar, landed at the bottom of the interface, and lifted her submachine gun upward, firing wildly at the Pac-Man.”

The Pac-Man raced down from above, its mouth opening and closing like a clapperboard, enduring the hail of bullets to swallow her pixelated body.”

[Player “Qing Meng” has died.]

Now, the only one left in the game interface was the pixelated Ke Mingye, whose face was almost a blur of gibberish, yet his dumbstruck expression was still discernible.”

This isolating pixelated character slowly released a text bubble over his head–[Not your buddy?]

The Pac-Man continued to devour the interface’s dots, its speed multiplying rapidly, moving through the corners of the interface like a streak of afterimages.”

Ke Mingye barely kept up with its speed, swinging between two horizontal bars with his webbing. By sheer luck, he managed to dodge a few of the Pac-Man’s charges.”

After a while, unable to react quickly enough, he started to rely on luck: using “Phase Transfer” to swap places with the Pac-Man, then fleeing in the opposite direction.”

At that moment, the isolated pixelated character still had exaggerated effect texts popping over his head with a “DuangDuang~” sound.”

[Accumulation progress: 16 laps!]

[Accumulation progress: 17 laps!]

“How am I supposed to hit it with my ultimate move when it’s moving this fast?” the pixelated Ke Mingye muttered, with a big red question mark above his head.”

Just then, Cai Bing sitting in the private room suddenly raised an eyebrow and murmured.”

“Hacked in just like that, this easily?”

As she thought this, the computer screen before her didn’t display the dense array of codes she expected.”

Instead, a clown’s smiling face popped up, followed by a spooky “hehehe” laughter.”

Cai Bing turned off the volume, looking down, and underneath that smiling face were two lines of code.”

[Cheat code 1: whosyourdaddy (makes a player enter an untouchable ‘ghost state’ for 10 seconds, where the Pac-Man can’t touch them; attacking will cancel the state)]

[Cheat code 2: ThereIsNoSpoon (temporarily doubles a player’s stats for 10 seconds)]

Below the codes was a line of text:

[While foolish, your bravery is commendable.]

“Played like a fiddle, so there was a deliberate leak to let me hack in…”

Cai Bing sighed, half-heartedly lifting her slender fingers to type on the keyboard, entering cheat code 1: whosyourdaddy into the dark panel.”

The next moment, the pixelated Ke Mingye’s body in the game interface became transparent.”

[You have entered a 10-second ghost state, where you won’t be touched by enemies.]

The pixelated Ke Mingye, while spinning his right arm, looked down at his now transparent body.”

He was stunned for a second, then a dialogue box popped up over his head: [What’s the meaning of this?]

At this point, the Pac-Man, having devoured countless dots, was so fast it seemed like a string of afterimages, way too fast for the naked eye.”

It moved rapidly up, down, left, and right in the tight space, sometimes rolling over Ke Mingye’s ghostly form.”

While the pixelated Ke Mingye was still dazed and questioning, Cai Bing rapidly tapped the keyboard, entering cheat code 2: ThereIsNoSpoon into the dark panel.”

Suddenly, the entire body of the pixelated Ke Mingye glowed with a golden light, as if he had activated Super Saiyan mode.”

At the same time, two prompt boxes popped up over his head.”

[Your stats have been doubled for a short period of time.]

[Accumulation progress: 20 laps! (The power of limits!)]

[Ghost state about to end in a 5-second countdown.]

[5 seconds…]

[4 seconds…]

[3 seconds…]

[2 seconds…]

[1 second…]

As the countdown sounded in the ear, the pixelated character on the screen suddenly closed his eyes and activated a new skill.”

The next moment, a line of text appeared above his head: [Spider Sense].”

Right after, the pixel character shivered all over, with a comic effect of “goosebumps” popping up over his head.”

Watching the Pac-Man shuttle through the space like a phantom, guided by intuition, the pixel character threw out his right hand without a second thought.”

[Accumulated arm-spin laps: 20, reaching the limit, the power accumulated in the arm is now–10 times the original.]

[Triggered Grade B Skill–Rotary Arm Fist-Guessing Skill, effect two.]

In an instant, the pixel character’s right hand clenched to the extreme, forming a fist.”

[The result of Fist-Guessing this time is ‘Rock’: when you choose rock, the power in your fist increases by another level, and you deliver a quick punch forward.]

The fist, glowing like a miniature sun, struck the oncoming yellow shadow head-on, smashing into its open mouth without reservation.”

“Boom!”

The massive word ‘Boom!’ rose above the pixel character’s head, and the Pac-Man’s body instantly exploded.”

[Final Strike!!! (The final blow!!!)]
