Snow

Looking at the steaming dishes in the large bowls,

Looking at Yu Ze's broken arm,

This scene unearthed memories deep within You Zhen's mind; similar things had happened before, and she had witnessed the whole process.

This is a completely different kind of fear.

Unlike anything sinister, eerie, or death-related, this is a kind of physical fear that makes you uncomfortable and causes your whole body to convulse.

You Zhen almost vomited.

However, she immediately used silk threads to control the situation inside her body, forcefully reversing the backflow of gastric fluid and maintaining a normal appearance.

If someone vomits here and ruins their dinner, the consequences would be dire.

You Zhen glanced at Luo Di beside her and found that he seemed to be in a bad state as well. He didn't seem to feel anything about the scene in front of him. He just sat there blankly, as if he had been scared out of his wits.

You Zhen looked at Yu Ze hand was severed, again.

But this time she seemed to notice something and quickly shifted her gaze back to the dining table.

Dinner proceedings continued.

The middle-aged man moved his hand to the second dish, lifted the stainless steel lid, and revealed a braised dish inside. At first, it was impossible to see what was in the thick broth.

But as the man stirred it with a spoon,

The eyes and tongue are faintly visible.

On the other hand, Yu Ze's eyes were empty, blood was flowing down his nose, and he wanted to scream but could not make a sound.

You Zhen felt another bout of acid reflux, while the middle-aged man sitting opposite her unveiled the third dish, a large bowl of braised pig's trotters, with plenty of collagen floating on the surface.

Correspondingly, Yu Ze's feet disappeared, leaving only his slippers lying forlornly on the ground.

The fourth dish,

A rare stir-fry series,

Yu Ze appeared outwardly unchanged, but he seemed to have lost consciousness, his body convulsing and swaying precariously.

Finally, it was time for the fifth dish.

This is also today's main dish.

Located in the very center of the dining table, it was covered by the largest stainless steel pot lid.

Strangely,

When the man lifted the pot lid, there was no food underneath, only a large hole in the center of the table.

Just then.

Without hands or feet and having lost all senses Yu Ze suddenly slid off his chair. When he reappeared, he was peeking out from a hole in the middle of the dining table.

Today's main course is already very clear.

The middle-aged man smiled, seemingly quite satisfied with the main course.

He picked up a fruit knife and plunged it into Yu Ze's head, circling it once, his movements practiced and seemingly familiar, as if he had done this often before.

Complete the cutting.

Gently place your five fingers on the surface of the skull.

Gently pry it open.

flesh and blood separation

The main course is presented.

However... unlike the expected main course, what was inside was not a brain, but a large pile of Yellow Talisman stuck together, completely filling the entire cranial cavity.

The talisman activates automatically when exposed to air.

Yu Ze's physical body also revealed its true form at this moment.

Both the limbs in the dish and his body exhibit a straw-like structure.

The talismans flew out from between the brains.

The family of four, either sensing danger or feeling tricked, revealed their Ominous Sign and prepared to prevent the impending explosion.

But it was too late when the skull opened... Explosion!

All the talismans exploded.

It seems that You Zhen knew about this in advance, and had already jumped back away from the restaurant area, using threads to weave a shield structure to block in front of her.

Boom!

A violent explosion was heard in the quiet streets.

A huge hole was blown into the edge of the floor where the Regent Grand Hotel was located, and dust was scattered everywhere.

Let's return to the interior of the guest room where the "murder" initially occurred.

The murderer's corpse, whose head had been smashed by Yu Ze with a stone, slowly stood up, stretched its body, and tore off the Yellow Talisman from its forehead.

When the talisman is removed and loses its effect,

The murderer's body had somehow transformed into Yu Ze's likeness.

The straw doll he was holding turned to dust.

"I took all the talismans on my body and detonated them, and the monster's attention was still on You Zhen. How come it only slightly injured the thing?"

The gap in rank is indeed too great. Once we successfully arrive at headquarters, we must begin preparing to break through to the next stage; we can't delay any longer.

As the explosion occurred, the space was temporarily unsealed.

Yu Ze turned around and crashed through the window, falling from the top floor. The cloth shoes he was wearing seemed to allow him to step on the air, and he landed steadily on the ground.

Meanwhile, at the edge of the building that was blasted with a huge hole...

You Zhen and Luo Di also jumped out at the same time, and the team reunited.

Looking up,

The explosion zone, billowing with thick smoke, seemed to have three pairs of eyes watching the team. Immediately afterward, a dark figure burst through the smoke and jumped down.

There was no slowdown.

Free fall,

His body slammed heavily onto the ground, without even the slightest bend in his knees.

The man who landed was the head of the household, a middle-aged man with a mustache, still wearing his kitchen apron, which had been mostly blown off.

The left side of his body was also blown to pieces.

He was holding a cleaver for chopping meat in his right hand.

Gaga~

The severely damaged left side of the body is visibly undergoing life activity, with small pieces of flesh sprouting and growing into a completely new left side from the wound.

"Super-Fast Regeneration"

This regeneration speed surpasses that of Yu Ze has ever hunted, restoring him to his original state in just one second.

Following closely behind,

The man struck a very exaggerated running pose.

"Run!"

Yu Ze roared,

Now that they have escaped the sealed space, there is no need for a direct confrontation. Moreover, Yu Ze has achieved all his plans and objectives; now all he needs to do is buy time.

Everyone ran at full speed.

Yu Ze took a step, he also threw out the copper coins from his waist.

Coins turned into swords

He then stepped onto the sword and flew on it, his speed far exceeding that of normal running.

but...

Arm swing!

With just a swing of his arm, the middle-aged man unleashed a powerful pressure that seemed to shake the entire street and crack the ground as he stomped on it.

Whoosh!

In just one second, they caught up with You Zhen and Luo Di.

But the man did not stop, and did not kill the two men.

He had only one target in his eyes: a young man who dared to tease and injure him even though no plant had grown from his pituitary gland.

The middle-aged man opened his mouth, intending to devour him alive on the street.

Under the streetlights, one could even see that the walls of the man's mouth revealed a series of painful and grotesque human faces.

Three steps.

At maximum speed, it will soon catch up with Yu Ze on the flying sword.

Feeling the immense pressure behind him, Yu Ze could even foresee his own death.

In this critical moment, Yu Ze held nothing back. Strange veins appeared on his face, and his body seemed to be undergoing some kind of strange transformation.

They were about to be caught up.

Yu Ze prepared to turn and face the enemy...

Buzz!

A snowflake drifted down.

It landed on Yu Ze's forehead, and the intense chill pulled him out of his strange state, calmed his thoughts, and smoothed his blood and qi.

At the same time,

The enormous threat from behind is no longer there.

When Yu Ze turned around again

The monster that was chasing him had turned into an ice sculpture, frozen in place while he was running.

However, the monster did not die.

Although he was deeply frozen, his body seemed to be still active and could break free of his restraints at any moment.

Crunch A large number of fleshy particles appeared under the skin, and Flesh Bud grew rapidly, about to break through the ice crystals.

A white-robed man with flowing white hair suddenly appeared in the street and walked past the monster.

Buzz!

The sword at his waist flashed.

A certain slashing motion has already been achieved.

The ice sculpture was cut in half with a cross-shaped cut, and the pieces fell to the ground.

The monster that was cut open was frozen at a deeper level, and every single cell stopped moving and died completely.

You Zhen arrived at that moment, and upon seeing the white-haired man before her, she was speechless for a moment before finally uttering a single word:

"Minister..."

Immediately following, a group of agents, all dressed in white robes and wearing gold cross badges on their chests, arrived. They were all members of the Medical Support Department.

While medical care is their primary job, providing support is also their forte.

Did they run away?

The white-haired man lay on the ground, where the monster's corpse was still frozen. Before being killed, the corpse was clearly a middle-aged man, but after death, it turned into an elderly man.

You Zhen met this old man before; he was one of the members of a family of four.

Another detective who knew You Zhen came over to inquire about the situation, "You Zhen, if you two are in good condition, then you can leave for now and prepare to come with us to headquarters."

"Okay..." You Zhen suddenly realized something was off about that sentence. "What do you mean two people? We're a three-person team."

This statement, however, made the detective frown.

"We've only seen the two of you since we arrived. When did a third person appear?"

"Where did that newcomer Luo Di go? Was he devoured by the House of Meat Eaters, or did he get separated from us? Do you have any information? We'll send people to search immediately."

"What? Luo Di has been with us the whole time?"

You Zhen turned to look at her side, where Luo Di, who should have been standing, was nowhere to be seen.

Thinking back carefully,

It seemed that from the moment they entered the hotel, Luo Di's presence became very weak, and Yu Ze was the one guiding their actions the whole time.

Yu Ze's expression, however, seemed perfectly normal; he appeared to have known what was going on all along.

But when he tried to calculate Luo Di's current situation, his fingernails were stained red...
