Remains
"Luckily, we set the rules in advance, otherwise I might have lost control and killed you! Great... After we get out, I want to be friends with you."
Li Beite snapped his fingers with the help of his glove, thus rescinding the "Deprivation Authority".
Luo Di's destroyed body was no longer restricted. His Old Spine began to function and repair his damaged body. His arms were quickly regenerated and restored.
Wu Wen inside the body also breathed a sigh of relief.
However, she did not separate, but remained inside Luo Di's body. Currently, only her head has grown out on her shoulder, looking at this Innate Monster with a wary expression.
Clang clang~
Not far away, a metal Iron Maiden constructed by Luo Di rolled over.
The pure white arm that had been sealed inside was released and returned to Li Beite.
The outcome of this duel is obvious.
Whether considering the severity of his injuries or his final ability to move, Luo Di lost.
Li Beite had already started moving his body again and said softly:
"Luo Di, you should still be able to move, right? We've been away from the park memorial for a long time now. I wonder if someone might have sneaked in and dug things up."
"Wait a moment..."
Luo Di had already deactivated his Great Demon Form, and his physical strength had been completely exhausted in this battle, leaving him unable to take even a single step.
However, as he took the bat in his hand...
Moonlight shone down.
The surrounding street scene instantly transformed into Crystal Lake Campground, and Luo Di completed Deep Mimicry of Jason. This imitation lasted less than a minute before being dispelled.
There was no nutritional supplementation, and no physical rest.
Luo Di's physical abilities, however, were greatly restored, reaching almost half of what they were before.
This is because, according to the movie's premise, Jason has unlimited stamina.
While Luo Di's imitation couldn't touch the word "infinite," the film's effects at least ensured that he could move normally, maintaining Jason's character and thus forcibly compensating for some of his physical limitations.
Even Li Beite was taken aback.
"You have another form? It's not as aggressive, but it feels very strange. It's a pure corner form, and it's very difficult to kill."
Luo Di did not respond directly, but instead jogged back to the park.
"Currently, only ' Clown Jock ' hasn't shown up, nor is there any news of him leaving. Given the commotion we've caused, he must know the Burial Ground is here."
Li Beite was somewhat puzzled. Although he was focused on fighting Luo Di, he was still somewhat wary. "I don't think I sensed anyone else in the park."
Is it possible that he's busy with something else outside the city, or that he's already dead at the hands of some divine projection?
"Let's go back and take a look first."
"Then I'll head back now."
Li Beite struck the same running pose he had just used to mimic Luo Di during the battle, leaning forward 90 degrees and unleashing terrifying speed, shooting back to the memorial like an arrow.
This sight made Luo Di pause for a moment, communicating with the female head that had grown on his shoulder:
"Wu Wen, is this your signature running posture?"
Do you think Li Beite was naturally capable of reaching this speed, or did he achieve it through combat and temporary training?
Wu Wen's expression wasn't good. "Don't compare yourself to such a monster... just be yourself."
"How are you?"
"Not very good. Your fighting style is too direct. My body Complete Fusion with yours, and the injury ratio is basically 1:1... Although regeneration is unrestricted, I have several serious injuries."
Let me stay inside you for now.
This incident should be over soon. My external body should have a recovery mechanism, cough cough!
After choking on a mouthful of blood, she continued speaking:
"It's not bad that we both survived. I initially thought at least one of us would die. [Defeat] was already inevitable from the moment Li Beite arrived at the park."
But judging from your expression, Luo Di, you don't seem sad at all; in fact, you seem a little happy?
We risked our lives to obtain crucial clues within the university, and now it's all for nothing. Aren't you upset at all?
"I just had a good time~ Besides, I might even know Li Beite outside. Losing is losing, what's there to be sad about?"
Besides, I myself also gained a lot.
"Do you have some other little secret?"
Caught off guard by Wu Wen's sudden prompting, Luo Di didn't answer immediately, but instead turned to look at her:
"Yes... no."
"Tsk! I'm definitely going to beat you up after this is all over."
"OK."
After a brief discussion, Luo Di still sped back to the memorial hall.
Li Beite was standing alone inside. There were no signs of the mound in the middle being dug up, and judging from the density of the fog, the corpses below had not been stolen either.
The iron bucket was still in the corner, and Luo Di noticed that the Girl inside seemed to be peeking out more than when he left.
"Li Beite, is the guy you turned into a puppet still fighting Mia? Shouldn't you stop? You won this duel anyway."
Li Beite shook his finger. "There's no need to stop. The puppet is slightly inferior to the original."
After all, when that guy met me in the city, he actually tried to assault my body, which resulted in him going a little too far and causing serious damage to my body.
Your partner has completely killed it and is currently on their way back, though they seem to be taking a while.
Just as Li Beite finished speaking, a fly flew over.
Immediately following, an axe, reeking of decay, swung down vertically, about to strike.
When!
Luo Di quickly swung his Metal Bat to block the axe in mid-air.
Although he knew that Li Beite could dodge, Luo Di still needed to block him, after all, such a Innate Monster had a strange temperament, and it would be really troublesome if he was accidentally provoked.
"Mia, it's over... I lost! My suggestion is to just hand over the remains to him; you can't possibly win in your current state."
Mia was covered in blood, with severe gangrene in many parts of her body. Maggots were helping to clean her wounds, and she was completely bloodthirsty.
It was only after being held down by Luo Di and hearing Gray Invasion's words that she calmed down.
"You lost... Well, there's nothing I can do about it. I'm going to take a break; that big guy was pretty tough to kill."
Mia limped to the edge and sat down against the wall.
Although what happened next was none of her or Luo Di's business, since she had already come here, she still wanted to see what the corpse looked like and how it could bear the fog that enveloped the entire city and evoked fear in people's hearts.
"Do you need my help digging?" Luo Di offered to assist.
Li Beite waved his hand, "You should go and rest. This kind of simple thing will be taken care of in no time."
He didn't need to do it himself at all.
The monster emerged from its back and began digging with its bare hands, easily excavating to a depth of over twenty meters with its pure white hands.
And the "corpses" buried underneath were finally revealed.
"This is... the Mist Man!?"
Standing at the edge of the pit, Luo Di's eyes widened. The corpse was almost identical to the Mist Man he had encountered on campus: a slender body with mist emanating from every pore, especially the fingers.
The difference is,
The corpse had a complete humanoid appearance, unlike the deep pitted structure on the face of the Mist Man.
It has a mouth, nostrils, and empty eye sockets, all of which are releasing mist outwards, as if it were breathing.
Just as Li Beite was controlling the inner monster, preparing to retrieve the corpse.
Mia was leaning against the wall, had somehow approached silently.
but,
Li Beite sensed something was amiss and decisively turned around.
Luo Di, however, seemed to be still drawn to the corpses below and did not notice the anomaly behind him.
Mia's body swelled up like a balloon, floating about three meters away, with blood constantly seeping from her face.
[Burst!]
The violent explosion, along with Mia's own decay, ripped a large hole in the memorial, and a small mushroom cloud rose slightly.
Li Beite's inner monster sensed danger to the main body and rushed to block the explosion, shielding him from the main damage.
Luo Di was blown away, his body charred, and he collapsed unconscious in a corner.
It was at this moment that...
The body, which should have been recovered, has vanished without a trace...
