"Why isn't it dead yet?"
Lu Xin frowned and quickly retreated, but the shadow beneath his feet suddenly charged forward.
Father was clearly reluctant, but what choice did he have?
Mom wasn't here, so he was the only adult in the family.
Besides, perhaps because the monster's mental shock had stopped him for more than twenty seconds, his temper had flared up as well. Compared to Lu Xin, who was wondering how to kill the monster, Father was now more interested in chopping it to pieces.
His temper had always been like this.
Impatient!
"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"
As the shadow flew forward, the pool of flesh rapidly expanded as well.
The shadow had already covered the pool of flesh, but as the flesh swelled, a large portion still broke free of its control. Then, more and more tentacles shot into the air, like frog tongues, striking the ceiling.
"Does this count as some kind of resistance from the monster?"
The scene of Ying rescuing the One-Eyed Man in the Suit at the motel flashed through Lu Xin's mind.
Back then, Ying had escaped the shadow's restraints by constantly expanding her flesh.
"Crash..."
At the same moment that thought arose, the pool of flesh before him suddenly surged into the air.
Countless tentacles gave it leverage.
Most of the flesh was torn apart and remained beneath the shadow, but another portion shot straight up to the ceiling.
It actually crawled out through the hole Lu Xin had left in the ceiling when he fell down...
It escaped!
The monster had actually escaped...
Lu Xin didn't dare let his guard down. The moment he realized what had happened, he shouted for Sister.
Tap tap tap tap.
His hands and feet were light as he climbed up the wall, then darted to the hole.
