Slaughter!

Transform—Four-armed Hegemon Form!!!

Chang Wei had come to steal kills, so naturally, he wasn't about to just stand by and watch. He transformed directly into the Four-armed Hegemon Form.

His height shot up from over 1.8 meters to two meters. Reinforced muscles made his body swell, and his four powerful, Mace Form arms were impossible to ignore.

Mercer instinctively sensed something that made his skin crawl. The next moment, he saw a massive figure descend from the sky. After all, two meters tall already felt like a Small Giant to Mercer.

"Boom!"

Chang Wei sent a Hunter flying with a single punch. The blow was so fierce that it smashed the Hunter through several trees before it finally stopped. Then, he grabbed a Hunter that was pouncing at him with both hands.

"Hahahaha, tear apart!"

Chang Wei grinned savagely and exerted force with both hands. The Hunter in his grasp struggled as he forcibly tore it apart. Jagged tears snapped strand after strand of flesh and blood fibers, and the Hunter went limp in Chang Wei's hands.

After tearing a Hunter apart alive, black-red tendrils surged from Chang Wei's hands and decomposed it.

[You have obtained 500 Gene Points!]

Holy shit!

Chang Wei was overjoyed. Ordinary infected were worth only ten Gene Points, while normal creatures like Electric Eels he consumed were worth only single-digit Gene Points.

A Hunter was worth five hundred Gene Points. Then how many Gene Points would the Hunter Leader, Ultimate Hunter, Hydra, and Nest be worth?

However, the Hunters were not frightened by Chang Wei's brutality. Instead, they continued attacking while he was rejoicing. Fortunately, although Chang Wei didn't get the luxury of frozen-time narration, his thought speed had actually increased considerably. Those thoughts had taken no more than an instant.

Besides, if someone could stand around spacing out in the middle of a battle, didn't that just mean their awareness of the outside world was terrible?

"Ora ora ora ora!!!"

Chang Wei sent one Hunter flying with a left hook, then crushed another Hunter's head with a right swing, smashing it to the ground. Immediately afterward, his four fists crazily shattered every bone in the Hunter's body. Finally, he stomped down on it, and tendrils extending from his foot decomposed and consumed the Hunter that had already been reduced to pulp.

"So strong!"

Mercer was excited, but also deeply shocked. He was excited because he seemed to have finally encountered one of his own kind. What shocked him was that this kindred being looked far stronger than him. That explosive physique, those four powerful arms—he could send Hunters flying with one punch and completely crush those monsters in a contest of raw strength!

Moreover, he had taken down two Hunters in just a few breaths. When the remaining three Hunters got back up, they were no longer so reckless or fearless toward Chang Wei.

Hunters possessed intelligence. They weren't brainless zombies like the infected. Besides, fear of death was a biological instinct. Even Hunters, creatures fused with the Blacklight Virus that had been developed as a weapon, were no exception.

"Scared, little doggies?"

Chang Wei burst into wild laughter. The moment he entered battle, he got unbelievably hyped. Women, games—none of it seemed interesting anymore. He wanted to see blood flowing like a river. He wanted to see living things crushed to pieces beneath his feet...

In his reinforced-muscle state, Chang Wei's jumping and mobility had both been enhanced. He kicked off the ground, leaving behind an afterimage as he rapidly closed in on the three Hunters.

His two left arms pinned down one Hunter, while his right hands each grabbed another Hunter and pressed them to the ground.

The three Hunters struggled frantically. Even Chang Wei felt like he could barely hold them down.

Wrestling three Hunters at once is my limit... This data flashed through Chang Wei's mind. Controlling two Hunters was manageable, and one was completely secure. But with three, there was always the danger that they would break free.

But he had only intended to restrain them briefly anyway. Of his two left arms, the upper one gripped the Hunter's head while the lower one seized its neck. His hold on it was much more secure than on the other two Hunters, so Chang Wei naturally chose it as his first target.

The arm gripping its head exerted force while the arm holding its neck twisted in the opposite direction.

Only after twisting it more than seven hundred degrees did Chang Wei finally wrench the Hunter's tough head off. Its headless body sprayed out a massive amount of blood, shooting several meters into the air. Residual nerve responses made the corpse thrash violently on the spot, but Chang Wei quickly absorbed it.

The other two Hunters broke free of Chang Wei's restraint at that moment.

The instant they escaped, they turned and tried to flee.

Just then, Mercer blocked the path of one Hunter. He had no intention of letting these monsters return to the city.

Chang Wei reacted quickly and went after the other Hunter.

That Hunter was slower than Chang Wei. He easily caught up, grabbed it, and tore it in half as well. Its lifeless body hung limply, like a slaughterhouse pig.
