"1" (A Big Chapter, Thanks to Baijiu and Zhiyuan for Becoming Patrons)

"Hua Yuan... tell me the intelligence."

The completely dried-out sound, along with the smell of sulfur, leaked from Luo Di's metal jaw.

Although it bears only a slight resemblance to the voice of the past, it is more like the Devil from hell.

Hua Yuan was not afraid at all; instead, she showed a smile she had never seen before.

"Mr. Di, think of me."

As Luo Di "longed" for Hua Yuan in his mind, he immediately obtained all the details of the sisters joining forces to fight against the village chief.

The key takeaways are three keywords.

[Membrane Barrier], [Color Tentacles], [Core Missing]

Of course, these three keywords were used before the village chief had Complete Fusion.

Now, the monster has Complete Fusion with the village chief's vessel, revealing its final form, making it even more difficult to deal with.

Most importantly, the opponent's core pituitary gland will likely become even harder to find and kill.

Luo Di, however, thought about it differently.

He shifted his Focus Point to something else.

His mind was now incredibly clear, and he quickly analyzed the intelligence to come up with an optimal "battle plan," which was also his first interview with the Hell Ridgeman.

"Hua Yuan, get ready to go."

"Okay... wait a minute."

Hua Yuan, who was about to switch to "Intruder," paused for a moment.

The corner energy flowing from her Pituitary Gland gland has become somewhat different, and the resulting physical manifestation has also become different.

Hua Yuan, who had been a member of the sorority for six years, had never felt this way before—this warm and safe feeling.

Not only that,

The Grandmother's Blood that had been absorbed by the body was also mobilized, participating in a completely new tangible transformation.

It was as if at this Hua Yuan had truly gained the Corner's recognition, and could go to the Corner even without completing this "Corner Wanted Order".

Hua Yuan used to be able to switch between the roles of "victim" and "aggressor" to deal with different situations.

She is now displaying a third attitude.

She was like a fourteen-year-old Girl who had not been violated and had reached the prime of her life, just like a beautiful flower in full bloom.

It is neither a former flower bud nor a polluted flower.

This is how Hua Yuan should have grown up, and this is the way she had always longed for.

"The Blooming Stance"

Her height falls somewhere between two extremes, standing tall and graceful, her allure enhanced, and her beauty now possesses a maturity akin to that of a peach.

Delicate, ethereal flower stamens sprouted from her skin, both real and illusory.

There were also pollen-like substances floating around, the purpose of which is unknown.

It possesses both the spirit manipulation of a victim and the physical abilities of Invader Stance. Moreover, Hua Yuan has unlocked a completely new method of attack.

She threw the fishbone stick, which she had received as a reward, on the ground and stopped using it.

After all, this thing is the other party's creation, and it might cause problems at crucial moments. It would be better to rely on one's own strength to fight.

Even Luo Di, who had returned from hell, was momentarily stunned.

It wasn't because of Hua Yuan's beauty, but because her temperament had become completely different from before, making it impossible for Luo Di to detect any trace of evil.

Hua Yuan tucked her black hair behind her ear, her pupils filled with tiny, floating flower patterns, so dense that it was quite unsettling to look at.

"I'm ready, let's go... just like in the forest."

No sooner had Hua Yuan prepared than Luo Di charged out like a wild beast.

Only a deep pit with a footprint emitting white smoke remained.

"Wow, so fast! Twice as fast as we were in the forest, and..."

Hua Yuan observed the surrounding trees in the forest and noticed that they all bore slight signs of cutting.

Hoo~ Ha~

Ashes were exhaled from the mouth.

Luo Di had already rushed out of the woods.

The village chief, who had deliberately severed his leg, returned to the beach, and his right leg had already regrowed.

Looking at the dyed ocean and feeling the stars sprinkling color, Luo Di did not hesitate, fear or slow down at all, but instead further increased his speed.

There was no change of direction or sudden stop.

Just sprint along the simplest straight line.

Even though he knew very well that the village chief's surroundings were already filled with color, and that any living thing that approached would be pierced, torn apart, and assimilated.

Zombie Shia was completely shredded during a direct confrontation; the destructive power of color had Transcendent Imposter, reaching the limits of this world.

Strangely enough.

Knowing this, Luo Di still chose to approach head-on... without slowing down, his eyes filled with determination.

When he stepped into the five-meter range...

Despair!

The tongue inside the mouth flicked heavily against the metal chin, emitting a completely different, dangerous warning sound.

Luo Di could clearly feel extremely dangerous things rushing towards him from all directions. There was no way to escape. Perhaps the only way to break through was to cut down trees in a certain direction.

But he did not choose to escape.

The blackened eyes always stared straight ahead, never glancing away.

Whoosh!

Colors come flooding in.

Unsurprisingly,

Luo Di's entire body was pierced by countless Color Tentacles. His head, torso, and limbs were all penetrated.

Physical strength alone is not enough to stop this thing.

"Mr. Di!"

Hua Yuan, who followed behind, was stunned by this scene.

She has the vision of Sister Eye and can see the real situation clearly.

The village chief's back split open, from which at least twenty Color Tentacles tentacles grew, all of which had now pierced through Luo Di's body, destroying almost all of his body's structure, internal organs, and bones, and even spreading color within his body.

"What is that...? What's inside Mr. Di's body?"

A strange thing happened.

These Color Tentacles that had pierced into Luo Di's flesh broke off one after another, and the severed ends of the tentacles slid out of his body one by one, leaving very smooth cuts on the surface of the wounds.

"Guillotine?"

Using the perspective effect, Hua Yuan discovered the "culprit" that had severed these tentacles.

Luo Di had actually filled his body with miniature torture instruments—the guillotine—the size of which corresponded perfectly to the tentacles, covering almost every part of his body.

These internal guillotines were all connected to the spine by a wire.

The traps would be triggered immediately the moment the tentacles invaded his body. Even if a few strayed, Luo Di would forcibly pull them out with his left hand and snap them in two.

The penetrating wounds left on Luo Di did not affect his movements.

Because "pain" exists as Second System between the spine,

The current spinal surgery grants Luo Di two distinct power boosts.

One is the ultimate killing power belonging to the Spine, where the combined values of strength, speed, etc. are doubled, the killing instinct is enhanced, and more effective executions can be carried out.

One is the painful physical body belonging to the prelude group, which allows the body's tolerance to be increased to an almost abnormal level during spinal surgery.

No matter how the body is damaged, the spine can always grow wires to replace, connect, and support the damaged body tissues, thus maintaining the integrity of the body.

As long as his spine remains intact, Luo Di is virtually indestructible in his open-spinal state.

current,

The holes pierced through his body have sprouted barbed wire structures that connect and support his damaged flesh.

Luo Di continued walking forward.

We are getting closer and closer to our goal.

The entire route was straight, without the slightest bend or detour.

Just like a serial killer in a movie, he only chooses straight lines as his pursuit path.

Just as the village chief was preparing to unleash the severed tentacles for another attack... whoosh!

A streak of silver light slashed down diagonally.

"Execution"

The village chief's upper body fell to the ground, the smooth and even diagonal cuts overflowing with color.

But it feels weird...

Luo Di showed no discomfort when his body was pierced. Now, after the killing, he appeared uneasy and confused.

It hadn't even reached the point of further dismemberment.

Whoosh!

The tides wash over the severed corpses, carrying them back to the sea.

Hua Yuan, who arrived at the same time, hugged Luo Di tightly from behind.

Flower stamens, resembling tiny arms, adhered to his body, quickly repairing the holes that had been pierced through.

But both of their eyes were fixed on the shimmering sea.

The village chief, who had just been executed a second ago,

Now it has emerged from the sea in good condition and is gradually walking back to the beach.

This time, the village chief will be more cautious and will not give Luo Di the same opportunity to get close as before.

"Mr. Di, as long as the pituitary gland of the avatar is not destroyed, this guy cannot be killed..."

Luo Di raised a finger. "Try again! This time I'll create the opportunity. When it comes, you'll join me in the slaughter."

"OK."

Hua Yuan was able to read Luo Di's thoughts and quickly understand the tactics.

When the village chief floated back to the beach,

Buzz!

Spinal rotation,

Luo Di stepped forward again.

The village chief, whose land had been cut down, no longer stayed in place. Instead, he used the levitation of colors to retreat at the same speed as Luo Di, ensuring that he would not be pulled closer.

During this time, tentacles kept attacking Luo Di from different directions.

Or thorn,

Or split,

Or draw,

Or entangled.

Luo Di has also made progress.

The penetration of his flesh had made him remember the scent of the tentacles, so he could smell them even if he couldn't see them.

During the pursuit, he could precisely sever the attacking tentacles or crush them with his left hand.

To alleviate Luo Di's stress.

Hua Yuan followed at the same speed beside the two, and from her hands grew slender flower stamens that shared certain characteristics with the tentacles. They intertwined with the tentacles of the other party and attempted to tear them apart with brute force.

The village chief was forced to retreat repeatedly and was about to be at a disadvantage.

Suddenly,

The tentacles that floated on his neck began to wrap around and contract, transforming into an unfamiliar male head that looked towards Hua Yuan.

With just one glance, Hua Yuan lost the battle on a spiritual level.

He collapsed to the ground and vomited repeatedly, large amounts of colorful octopus tentacles coming out of his throat.

With Hua Yuan's elimination, the balance was broken.

Luo Di was about to face twice as many tentacles, or even more, and that eerie male head was also staring at him!

Buzz!

An invisible mental shock spread out, filling Luo Di's vision with colors and forcing him to freeze for half a second. Although his tongue had already slapped loudly at the first moment, it was still too slow.

Snap!

Luo Di's entire body was tightly bound by tentacles, leaving no gaps. They no longer burrowed into his body, but merely bound his body from the outside to prevent triggering the internal traps again.

Even the butcher's knife was thrown into the sea and disappeared.

The male head, formed from intertwined tentacles, had already appeared in front of Luo Di.

He did not speak.

Instead, it opened its mouth.

A distinctly different, brightly colored, tongue-shaped tentacle emerged from the male's mouth, burrowing into Luo Di's unclosed "Jaw Ripper," heading straight for the brain.

really,

The monster avatar still desires Luo Di's "Connector" body.

Even in this situation, he still didn't want to give up, seemingly having an unimaginably strong obsession with Luo Di.

The tongue-shaped tentacles have already burrowed into the cranial cavity and adhered to the brain!

Body Snatching

Strangely,

The tentacles attached to the surface of the brain are completely unaware of the existence of consciousness.

This Brain Tissue existing in the cranial cavity does not appear to be a carrier of consciousness, but merely a simple central controller.

So much so that his head tilted slightly; he had never seen anything like it before.

Without consciousness, one cannot Body Snatching.

When he tried to pull his tongue off the surface of his brain, he found it stuck, with wires growing from inside his brain tightly binding it.

Not only that,

A strange "connection" forms between Luo Di and the monster incarnation.

After all, this brain was projected backwards from the True Hell, and the dominance of color unexpectedly connected it to the root of the projection.

It has connected to [the True Hell].

Even a short connection is enough to make the other person burn and lose moisture.

This is Luo Di's tactic, a tactic that requires taking the risk of suicide.

Sizzle! Intensely hot.

The tongue, which is attached to the surface of the brain, is the most severely affected, becoming scorched and disintegrating into pieces.

The tentacles that bound Luo Di's body gradually became scorched by hell, lost moisture and became fragile, allowing Luo Di to easily break free and regain his freedom.

They were currently at close range, within Luo Di's killing range.

The village chief himself was deeply affected by the connection to the True Hell, his body emitting large amounts of steam and falling into a weakened state.

But something is strange,

The strange male head's eyes didn't show fear or discomfort... but rather excitement, the excitement of discovering something new and exciting.

"Hua Yuan!"

"We arrived a long time ago!"

Hua Yuan, who had been vomiting, was now standing behind the other person.

One in front and one behind,

Joint execution.

The butcher's knife struck repeatedly!

Disassembling the flower stamen!

The two took killing to its extreme; one's eyes became those of a pure murderer, and the other's eyes those of an extreme aggressor... Together, they completely dismantled the village chief's body.

The largest piece of meat is no more than 1cm.

Unfortunately, Luo Di is not yet able to actively use the scorching heat from hell, otherwise he could have burned it to ashes.

Hua Yuan appeared quite cautious. She immediately used her mental power to throw all the small pieces of meat towards the hotel, avoiding contact with the seawater and preventing them from being swept into the colorful ocean.

The killing is over.

Both were somewhat out of breath from fatigue.

Colorful debris was scattered throughout the inner part of the beach, but was not swept away by the sea.

but...

The stars did not dim at all; on the contrary, they became even more dazzling.

The minced meat, discarded in different places, gradually evaporated under the starlight, turning into pure, colorful mist that blended together.

In the blink of an eye,

The colors have already revealed the outline of a human figure.

As the outline appears,

The intact village chief gradually took shape and eventually emerged from the colors.

The pituitary gland, drifting among the stars, both real and illusory, will always retain its color as long as it is not destroyed.

This almost perverse method of regeneration completely stunned even Hua Yuan.

"Is this the most difficult Wanted Poster? Our methods can't even scratch its core... It seems we're really going to die here."

Mr. Di, should we try to escape? Should we squeeze out of this narrow passage together?

There might be a glimmer of hope if we can escape. Perhaps Grandmother is watching all this from the outskirts of the island, and we can get her help once we escape.

certainly.

Once the Grandmother intervenes, the Wanted Poster will become invalid.

But it doesn't matter anyway~ Let's run away, it's better to survive than to die here.

However, when Hua Yuan expressed her thoughts, she turned her gaze back to Luo Di beside her.

The other party made the exact same move as before.
