Bloody Meatball
The ceiling above the corridor of the Teaching Building is a very ordinary white painted wall. It is not so dark at night that it is completely invisible, but it inevitably appears somewhat hazy.
But that's under normal circumstances.
At that moment, Lu Bai looked up unintentionally and was shocked to find several vein-like shadows on the ceiling of the corridor.
Following the direction of the "blood vessels," it's easy to determine that these vessels originated from that office.
It must be commended that even in the face of such a sudden change, Observer Chen's hand remained so steady, ensuring that the viewers in the live broadcast room could have the clearest and most stable picture.
Unfortunately, the host in the live broadcast room had never seen such a scene before and completely forgot to provide any explanation.
"They're out! They're out!"
"Where?"
"No, the eeriness still seems to be in that office."
"How come there's a migrant worker inside?"
In this situation, netizens no longer needed the host's explanation; they were all quietly watching the images on the screen, and even the comments section became much sparser.
Lu Bai blinked, turned to look at the Construction Worker, and suddenly asked, "What's inside?"
It seemed to be a kind of entity, at least he didn't sense any eerie aura like the Red-clothed Female Ghost or the Drowned Ghost.
The Construction Worker didn't freeze, but he also didn't turn around to look at Lu Bai. He was clearly afraid to be distracted, lest the eerie creature in the office rush out and kill him if he turned his head.
They came as a group, but now he's the only one left.
If he hadn't reacted quickly, he probably would have already gotten caught up in the mess along with his companions.
Seeing that the other party did not reply, Lu Bai hesitated for a moment, then walked towards the office.
The corridor isn't narrow, and since it's on the second floor, you can easily escape whether you jump down or climb over the railing, which gives you a good sense of security.
The Construction Worker who had escaped outside the office watched helplessly as Lu Bai walked past him and reached the office door as if nothing had happened.
His eyes widened involuntarily. "You... what exactly?"
He was a little confused.
Could it be that this guy is genuinely trying to help the natives eliminate the monsters?!
However, Lu Bai had no time to pay attention to this death fighter now; his attention was completely drawn to the monster in the office.
Yes, a monster!
Before this, whether it was the Old Man Tour Guide, the Red-clothed Female Ghost, or the Drowned Ghost, these eerie things might have had their strange aspects, but on the surface they still appeared to be human-shaped.
However, the strange thing in this office was just a huge Bloody Meatball that filled the entire office.
Dozens of arms and legs were attached to the surface of the fleshy ball in an extremely irregular manner, and countless eyeballs were clustered together.
The whole thing looks like something a creator with a twisted sense of humor had forcibly mixed together some awkward elements; just looking at it makes your scalp tingle.
The tentacled arms on the monster's surface began to slowly wriggle towards Lu Bai.
The vein-like strips of flesh that stretched from the ceiling into the corridor vibrated and withered away.
The shape of the mountain of flesh kept changing, but no matter how it changed, its dozens of scarlet eyes remained fixed on Lu Bai.
As the meatball began to move, a strong, fishy stench wafted over.
Lu Bai frowned and took half a step back. "What is this thing?"
He's not an expert in this area; you'd have to let Captain Mao handle things like identifying the supernatural.
Seeing Lu Bai retreat, the meatball seemed to think he was planning to escape, so it hurriedly increased its speed and let out a bloody roar.
"Roar!!!"
Click~
The wall of the office against the door gradually cracked under the pressure of the Bloody Meatball, and then collapsed with a loud bang.
The terrifying weight even caused dense cracks to appear in the corridor floor.
For a moment, it felt as if the entire Teaching Building was shaking.
Lu Bai glanced back at the Construction Worker, a smile still unconsciously playing on his lips, looking quite relaxed. "You actually survived being swallowed by that thing?"
He could tell from the limbs on the surface of the fleshy mass that the flesh was basically a combination of missing students from the school and some Construction Worker.
If nothing unexpected happens, as long as it devours enough flesh and blood, the size of the flesh ball can continue to expand.
Upon hearing Lu Bai's question, the Construction Worker's eyelids twitched; he didn't quite understand Lu Bai's thought process.
However, if he doesn't plan to run away immediately, it seems that his only option right now is to cooperate with Lu Bai for the time being.
Based on this, although he felt a little awkward, he still said, "This monster's reaction wasn't very fast; I was able to find a chance to break free when I was bound by those strips of meat."
"Slow to react?"
Lu Bai turned around thoughtfully. "Is he still asleep? Or is he still growing?"
Thinking of this, he picked up a talisman, flicked it onto the fleshy ball with his finger, and quickly chanted an incantation.
The talisman emitted golden light along the way, and as if it had its own consciousness, it stuck to the fleshy ball, clearly indicating that it had been successfully cast.
But to his surprise, it seemed to have no effect at all.
An arm on the surface of the fleshy ball swung twice and easily tore the talisman off.
Maoshan Daoism is ineffective?
Seeing this, Lu Bai narrowed his eyes and subconsciously continued to retreat to create distance.
He wouldn't assume that Maoshan Daoism could work on all strange phenomena, but the fact that it had no effect at all seemed rather absurd.
Captain Mao, who was with Observer Chen at the other end of the corridor, carefully examined the shape of the fleshy mass. Suddenly, his expression changed drastically, and he blurted out, "Could this be?!"
He swallowed hard, finally recognizing the bizarre sequence, and shouted, "Master Lu! Be careful! This is Abomination!"
Sequence 27: Hatred.
As mentioned before, the sequence does not represent the strength of the eerie entity, but rather depends on the degree of threat it poses to humanity.
The top thirty in the sequence are all bizarre creatures, each capable of easily slaughtering an entire city.
In the two years since the strange phenomenon began, two cities with populations of over a million have been destroyed by this very aversion to the supernatural.
The most troublesome thing about this abomination is its almost limitless growth ability and extremely exaggerated vitality.
As it devours more and more flesh and blood, the city it inhabits will become a complete ghost town.
At the same time, a huge wave of excitement swept through the live stream room.
It's important to understand that in order to ensure public safety as much as possible, strange information will not be blocked. Therefore, many viewers in the live stream, like Captain Mao, recognized the strange creature's identity.
"No way?"
"That's right! This is hatred!"
"Oh no! I live in Keshanshi City, how did I end up here?!"
