Mayor

The instant Lu Bai's figure disappeared, the two Parasitic Organism standing in the direction of the Warehouse door were almost simultaneously cut in half at the waist.

The blood remaining on the blade, under the inertia of the high-speed swing, naturally formed droplets that rolled down the edge.

No one present could see Lu Bai's movements clearly; all they saw was the flash of the blade followed by a spray of blood.

"Stop him!" the mayor shouted swiftly.

Emerging from the [Flash Time] state, Lu Bai continued walking without stopping, heading straight towards the Warehouse gate.

The number of Parasitic Organism gathered in this Warehouse is outrageous; he's not going to be so reckless as to fight so many of Parasitic Organism.

Even killing hundreds of pigs would take a long time, let alone Parasitic Organism, which are far more dangerous than pigs.

To be honest, with the advantage of [Flash Time], disregarding physical limitations, and slowly wearing them down, it might not be impossible to take them all down.

The problem is that this approach has too little room for error, and besides, eliminating these Parasitic Organism doesn't really mean much to him, as it doesn't add any points.

In short, a strategic shift.

Lu Bai quietly put away the Long Fang in his hand, then rushed out of the Warehouse and ran wildly.

Numerous Parasitic Organism pushed and shoved each other as they squeezed out of the gap in the roller shutter door.

"Don't let this human get away!"

A girl in JK uniform watched Lu Bai grow further and further away, her skull opening like a caterpillar's cocoon, revealing two pairs of fleshy wings.

With a flap of its fleshy wings, its body soared up like a kite.

Seeing this, many Parasitic Organism seemed to be inspired and Second Company developed fleshy wings to take flight.

Lu Bai moved swiftly across the cement ground, his feet barely touching the ground.

When a person is running at full speed, turning around will cause their speed to drop, so in order to maintain his speed, Lu Bai kept his head down and ran like crazy the whole way.

Even without turning around, he knew from the sounds getting closer that the monsters were catching up.

I could feel a burning, suffocating sensation in my chest, which was growing stronger and stronger. It was my lungs protesting from being overworked.

This can't go on.

Without much hesitation, he stomped his foot hard, sliding several meters on the concrete ground, forcefully stopping his forward momentum.

He had only paused for a few breaths when a gust of wind swept towards the back of his head.

Lu Bai suddenly turned around, raising his right arm as he did so, and grasped the Long Fang in his hand once more.

He didn't even have time to see what it was before he delivered a vertical slash, cutting the monster that was lunging at him in half.

The Parasitic Organism dressed in a JK uniform was torn apart like a rag; it didn't have time to react and died instantly.

Pfft Bang Bang

A dozen or so Parasitic Organism with strangely shaped fleshy wings fell one after another, but given Lu Bai's exaggerated performance, they didn't dare to pounce on him directly.

"Are you all really looking to die?"

The frantic run had left Lu Bai's breathing somewhat labored.

One of the Parasitic Organism reverted to human form and said warily, "By human standards, you are indeed very strong, but our role is simply to hinder you."

That's true.

Through the silhouettes of these dozen or so monsters, one can see that more monsters are gradually approaching from behind them.

Lu Bai adjusted his breathing. "Your faction only knows how to bully the weak with numbers?"

The monster gave a signal, indicating to its companions to surround Lu Bai.

"Playing to our own strengths is the right thing to do. If you try to use terms like fairness and morality to constrain us, it just makes me want to laugh."

It was just waiting for its teammates, and it was happy to have Lu Bai engage in some verbal sparring with it.

Suddenly, I seemed to hear a faint sound.

As the sound grew louder, it became clear that it was a series of sirens coming from a distance.

Lu Bai smiled and said, "Don't misunderstand, what I mean is, I also like bullying the weak with numbers."

For Parasitic Organism to kill humans, it would require that neither side relies on weapons.

Ultimately, they are carbon-based life forms. No carbon-based life form can withstand thermal weapons. If there is, it only means that the weapon is not hot enough.

They weren't mindless Zombie. Seeing the situation was turning against them, these Parasitic Organism didn't even bother with threats and turned to run away.

Lu Bai did not stop them, mainly because he was alone and it was impossible for him to leave these Parasitic Organism behind.

He turned to look in the direction from which the siren was coming.

"You arrived pretty quickly."

Jiangyu City First People's Hospital.

Inpatient Department, Ward 6019.

"Aren't you supposed to be keeping an eye on the crime scene? Aren't you already a team leader?"

Yao Yi watched as Lu Bai sat on the stool eating an apple and asked him, somewhat puzzled.

Lu Bai took another bite of the apple; it was crisp and crunchy, and juice splattered out.

After leisurely swallowing, he casually explained, "Anyway, the murderer couldn't possibly stay at the crime scene waiting for me."

"That's true."

Yao Yi nodded, then said, "I heard you destroyed another monster hideout?"

"I didn't do it. I arrived too late. You can think of it as infighting among the monsters."

Lu Bai spoke very casually.

However, Yao Yi always felt that Lu Bai's words seemed to have a deeper meaning.

He didn't know how to respond, so to avoid embarrassment, he simply picked up the remote and turned on the TV.

The LCD TV in the ward was small, and it was showing the mayor's speech.

"... I am deeply grateful to all the representatives and the people of Jiangyu City for their trust in electing me to continue serving as Mayor of Jiangyu City..."

The voice sounded somewhat familiar, and Lu Bai turned his head to glance at it. His previously nonchalant gaze instantly froze.

Is that it?!

Having only seen it recently, he naturally wouldn't forget what the leading Parasitic Organism looked like.

It turns out that Parasitic Organism have already climbed to such a high position.

No wonder they were so determined to stay; they didn't want to reveal their identity.

"Old Yao, if I said this mayor is Parasitic Organism, and I actually saw it, what do you think the consequences would be?"

"Ha?"

Yao Yi was momentarily confused, thinking she had misheard, "Brother Lu, are you kidding me?"

Lu Bai did not laugh.

Yao Yi's face gradually stiffened. "No way? Someone with this kind of status should have very strict..."

He became increasingly hesitant as he spoke, finally concluding with the question, "Then what should we do?"

Lu Bai shook his head.

This situation is a bit outrageous.

He could certainly report that the mayor was possessed by a monster, but it's hard to say how effective that would be.

Moreover, the mere fact that he knew its identity meant that the other party was unlikely to let him go.

Given his position as mayor, his information must already be on the mayor's desk by now.

What will it do?
