Don't Eat

Inside the villa.

Juan and Yu Lu stood in the second-floor entrance hall, where they could see the situation on the first floor most directly.

This internal servant duel has been going on for half an hour and will soon be decided.

The woman, known as Juan, was completely captivated by the Male Servant. Due to a congenital cleft in her mouth, she occasionally experienced saliva secretion.

"Sister Yu, where did this man come from? He's already this good even before he sprouted. What will he be like after he sprouts? Shouldn't the Exploration Bureau value such a talent highly?"

How did you end up here?

"Hua Yuan brought them; they knew each other before. Besides, Luo Di is also acquainted with my Grandmother. This is the first time I've seen my Grandmother value a male so much, so don't do anything reckless."

"Sister Hua's boyfriend? No wonder, she really has the ability to bring Shallow Layer men over directly. This guy is really lucky, he has so many sisters to enjoy himself, it just depends on whether Sister Hua is willing to share."

Yu Lu explained simply, "It's not what you think. The real reason he came here is because he was being chased by the clown from the Hateful Eight. That clown even destroyed the Flower Garden because of it and chased him into this game."

We had just met once before, and there was a slight friction between us.

Upon hearing this, Juan's face turned pale. "The Hateful Eight... you clowns... how dare you touch our sorority's territory! You're asking for death!"

Why don't we stop them from killing each other for now, and then work together to take care of that clown? We can do it right now in this game; I'm sure you've already marked him, Sister Yu.

Yu Lu's head, which was hanging on the rope, swayed from side to side. "No, at least not in this game. After this is over, you just go home. I'll take care of things here. I have other tasks."

"I'm not in a hurry to go back~ I can stay here. Anyway, I have nothing to do. According to the business trip plan, I won't be home until at least next month."

"What ever."

"Alright, I'll wait for your good news in the rest area after I'm eliminated. It's been a long time since I've seen Sister Hua. Her thing is really comfortable, better than most men."

The outcome of their conversation was already decided during the exchange.

The fat pig with extensive fat hyperplasia was completely slaughtered, and the pituitary gland hidden deep in the fat was collected by Luo Di using a miniature Iron Maiden.

It's just that this fat pig is too much trouble to kill.

Almost all of its internal organs can separate and pose a threat, making it more difficult to deal with, or rather, more difficult to kill, than the ghostly skeleton in the parking lot.

The main reason is the effect of hunger.

The canned meat that Luo Di had eaten earlier was now almost completely consumed, and the feeling of hunger had spread from the depths of his soul. Staring at the scattered pieces of pork belly in front of him, his mouth had already begun to salivate.

"Mr. Di, I'll go to the rest area first, and we can talk again when you come out."

On the second floor, Juan waved goodbye. Due to the death of her servant, she was eliminated and taken away by a circle of darkness, leaving no trace.

Yu Lu also floated down, looked at the scattered meat on the ground, picked up a piece at random and smelled it.

"Because they were injected with the Hunger Virus, although the concentration is far less than that in zombies, these pieces of meat still contain some of it."

There seems to be plenty, enough to last for several weeks, but only a small portion can actually satisfy our hunger; it's barely enough to last a day or two.

In any case, at least we won't have to worry about food for a day or two.

"Luo Di, should we eat it raw, or will you heat it up?"

After the battle, Luo Di no longer regarded his opponent as a human being, and in fact, the opponent was no longer human, but a pure, pig-like animal.

This applies to both the physical body and the essence of thought.

Under the influence of hunger, Luo Di's perception also shifted slightly. He convinced himself that what he was eating was just pork, nothing serious.

"I'll heat it up."

Luo Di went to the kitchen area, where the water supply was still running. He filled two large pots with water and then quickly heated them by wrapping his wire around the bottom of the Iron Pot.

Simply cut the meat into small pieces, and it will cook quickly.

After satisfying the most basic appetite, there are other processing methods. You could render oil directly from this fat, and maybe even make some fried meat. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water.

Just as Luo Di was starting to boil water,

Knock knock knock~

The door to the villa was knocked on again, the frequency of which was very similar to that of the clown before.

This puzzled Yu Lu, who tried to sense the hanging mark she had left behind. The mark was located far away, not near the door.

"Don't get distracted. Just boil the water. No matter who's outside, they won't be able to get in. You're hungry right now, so eat your fill before you worry about what's going on outside."

"Um."

Luo Di's eyes were fixed on the pot, his whole body yearning for the bright red on the surface of the pork to fade, for the sight of it being cooked, and for the aroma of the meat to fill his mouth.

Just as the meat slices were about to be cooked,

Thump~ thump... thump!

Three knocks came at the door again, but the frequency was different from before, as if the frequency had been deliberately changed.

This frequency felt incredibly familiar to Luo Di, as if there was a similar knocking frequency deep in his memory, and as if this frequency corresponded to a very important person.

My thoughts seemed to drift back a year, to the Saiwei Resort Island, to the time when a hotel waiter would knock on my door to deliver food.

That's what the knocking sound was like back then.

Returning to the present,

The slices of meat in the hot pot were already cooked. Looking at the slices of cooked meat floating on the surface and the delicious broth, Luo Di surprisingly managed to resist the urge to eat.

The Old Spine straightened, working in conjunction with the brain structure to suppress the virus that was multiplying within the body.

Although he didn't stop cooking the meat, Luo Di got up and walked to the door, wanting to see who was knocking outside.

Yu Lu, who was on the second floor, came down and looked at Luo Di with some surprise. "You can actually hold back? The battle just now should have drained all the food energy in your body. Now those Hunger Virus should be multiplying wildly in your brain."

"Miss Yu Lu, could you please check the situation outside the door for me? I'm still a little worried."

"OK."

Yu Lu herself was also very curious. She was very confident in her methods and wanted to see if the person outside was a clown.

She went to the door and put up the peephole.

There was nothing outside, neither balloons nor people.

After confirming that no one was around, Yu Lu suddenly pushed the door open. There was no sneak attack, no floating balloons, and no trace of other monsters lingering outside.

Not even a trace or a hint of anything was left behind.

Just as Yu Lu was wondering who had such good concealment skills, Luo Di also came to the door.

Just then, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew in.

As the cold wind blew past Luo Di, the airflow somehow managed to get into Luo Di ear canal, where it swirled and rubbed against him, producing a familiar sound:

Don't eat it.

This voice brought Luo Di back to his senses, further suppressing his desire to eat meat.

Turning to look at the large pot of stew inside the house, the red meat all over the floor and what was being stewed was definitely not pork soup.

"Sister Yu, I can't eat this meat."

I suddenly realized something: if I actually ate it, my human nature would be affected; my advancement, my essence, would undergo subtle changes.

Yu Lu, however, wore an expression as if she had known all along, a faint smile on her pale lips.

"You actually managed to withstand the virus from the first generation of zombies. I was even thinking that you could actually eat this flesh and slowly become one of us."

No wonder your Grandmother thinks highly of you; you are indeed special.

We'll leave the meat at the villa as a food reserve, and continue our search for canned goods. This is only the First Day; the situation might change in the next two days.

"Thanks."

Just as the two were about to go out to find food again, a noose suddenly appeared around Luo Di's neck. "By the way, you didn't hear or feel anything when you opened the door, did you? After all, I saw you were about to eat meat, but you suddenly changed your mind."

"No, I'm just worried that the clown might be outside... because he's my target, far more important than eating."

"Oh, is that so? That guy is too tough to kill, and I'm too lazy to get involved. You'll have to work hard."

The hanging rope disappeared.

The two resumed their food-hunting adventure in the neighborhood.
