[ Night Kill ] looked at Qin Gucheng, who was still panting in front of him, and his eyes became playful again.

"Wow, they're really tough! They're still alive!"

Covered in blood, Qin Gucheng slowly opened his left eye and looked at [ Night Kill ].

"Seeing how tenacious you are in the face of Life, I'll give you a chance."

It slowly pulled Qin Gucheng closer, its face filled with barely suppressed excitement.

"If you bark like a dog, I'll let you go~" She then loosened her grip on his neck a little, hoping he would make a sound.

"Instructor..." Keke held the last cube in mid-air, watching her instructor being choked and barely alive amidst the ruins.

Before she could take the next step, she suddenly felt dizzy, and the cube fell to the ground as if it had lost its power.

Keke collapsed to her knees with a thud, her mental energy completely depleted once again.

"Come on, yell now~ or you'll all die~"

Faced with [ Night Kill's ] urging, Qin Gucheng's blood-stained lips trembled slightly.

"Yes, call out quickly!"

The next moment, Qin Gucheng spat out a mouthful of blood, which sprayed into [ Night Kill's] eyes, blinding him.

Then, raising the straight sword he had been gripping tightly, he roared and thrust it directly at [ Night Kill ]'s head from below.

Pfft!

Blood gushed out like a tidal wave, staining [ Night Kill ]'s dark body red.

At the same time, Qin Gucheng's flying head drew a blood-red arc in the air.

Qin Gucheng's tightly gripped knife stopped less than a centimeter from [ Night Kill ] and fell limply to the ground.

What's wrong with me...?

Oh, right, it smacked my head off.

Qin Gucheng was still in the air and had not yet lost consciousness, thought to himself.

Scenes from my own life began to flash incessantly, and the images before my eyes seemed to slow down as if someone had pressed the slow-motion button.

Ultimately, his memory was fixed on the lovely girl who confessed her love to him under the New Year's fireworks.

"Is this what they call a revolving lantern? It seems I'm really going to die. I wonder what will happen to Liu An after I'm gone."

The scarlet head finally fell and slowly rolled to Keke's side.

Keke consciousness was beginning to fade, slowly raised her head. When she saw the head with its eyes wide open in death, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

His previously chaotic mind went completely blank at that moment, and he stared blankly at everything in front of him.

"Ah, it's Keke. She's going to die."

"I'm truly useless; I can't protect my loved one, nor can I keep my students safe from harm."

"I really am utterly useless..."

As the last wisp of thought drifted by, the last glimmer of light in Qin Gucheng's eyes vanished without a trace.

Keke's throat trembled incessantly, but she couldn't utter a single word.

She was breathing heavily, and slowly raised her dusty hand, wanting to touch Qin Gucheng.

She wanted to confirm if it was true.

She couldn't believe it, she absolutely refused to believe it; she was convinced it must all be a hallucination.

Just as her hand was about to touch her cheek, a strong, large hand suddenly grabbed the back of her collar and lifted her up.

Then they roughly pressed Keke against the wall.

"Ugh, how boring. A simple scream would have saved them, but they have to make everyone unhappy."

[ Night Kill ] placed a hand on Keke's shoulder, and then his body began to slowly change, transforming back into a half-human, half- Variant form.

Before Keke could react, he forcefully kissed her.

"Ugh!" Keke's eyes widened as a strong, metallic taste of blood instantly filled her mouth.

After being forcibly kissed for nearly half a minute, [ Night Kill ] reluctantly released his mouth.

Seeing the blood-red saliva hanging from Keke's mouth and her terrified expression, [ Night Kill ] became even more excited.

It extended its blood-stained claws and gently stroked Keke's face.

"I suddenly realized you're quite good-looking! I've been looking at you for a while and I still think you're pretty."

"Looks like I can take you with me and play with you for a while longer."

"I just don't know how well she's developing~" he said, then hooked Keke's collar, trying to pull her clothes off.

Just then, a commotion broke out behind them.

[ Night Kill ] stopped moving and turned to look at them with a displeased expression.

A pale arm emerged from the previously blocked opening, and then Hela was dug out of the hole.

Upon seeing this, [ Night Kill ]'s face once again revealed a lewd smile.

He released his hand from Keke's, and Keke collapsed to the ground.

"Hehe, are you in such a hurry?" Looking at Hela's fair and perfect figure, [ Night Kill ] wiped away the drool that was about to spill out.

puff!!

The moment Hela saw her, a bone whip burst forth from her body.

Like a python hunting its prey, it swiftly lunged at [ Night Kill ].

[ Night Kill ]'s figure suddenly vanished, and the bone whip stopped in front of Keke in an instant.

Then, with a powerful swing, he struck at [ Night Kill ], who had dodged to the side.

[ Night Kill ] gritted his teeth, transformed back into a complete Variant, and leaped away.

After landing, he flashed again, appearing directly in front of Hela and slashing her in half at the waist with a single claw strike.

Looking at Hela, whose upper body he had just lifted into the air, [ Night Kill ] chuckled.

But then its upper body flew out and grabbed its head.

Then, to the astonishment of the other party, Hela actually bit down on [ Night Kill ]'s neck.

Just as she was in shock, Hela's upper and lower body began to rapidly change.

The mouth that was biting [ Night Kill ] kept getting bigger, and its teeth quickly became thicker and stronger, breaking through it in one bite.

Blood splattered, and with a forceful jerk as his upper body hit the ground, [ Night Kill ] crashed straight into the rubble of an unfinished building.

The dark figure was completely buried in the ruins.

"Haha! As expected of [Life], it's truly formidable..."

[ Night Kill ] chuckled as he crawled out of the ruins, then looked at Hela, who had flung him away.

Then it froze, because Hela had transformed into a giant wolf nearly three meters tall at the shoulder, with a fierce look on its face.

"[ Fog Barrier Wolf ]?!" [ Night Kill ] exclaimed in surprise, but quickly noticed the difference.

The [ Fog Barrier Wolf ] that Hela transformed into only possessed its physical structure, and its fur also appeared to be different.

It looks like scales, and it's very hard.

The giant wolf growled and then pounced on Night Kill like a madman.

[ Night Kill ] licked its lips and quickly dodged to the side just as the 'giant wolf' was about to pounce on it.

Then, it spun in the air and swung its sharp tail, leaving a scratch nearly half a meter long on its surface.

Just as it was feeling smug, three thick, scarlet tentacles surged toward it.

[ Night Kill ] was startled and immediately swung out a claw, slicing a tentacle to pieces.

The other two quickly entangled it.

"Let me go!" It swung its tail, severing the tentacles around its waist, and raised its claws to try and sever the tentacles wrapped around its left hand.

But suddenly a huge wolf's mouth bit down on his right hand.

"Ah!" A piercing pain shot through my right hand.

Crimson blood continued to spurt from the wound, just like Qin Gucheng had done.
