Chapter 14
The charred tires brushed past Lu Feng’s face, speeding by, with a violent wind spraying out.
Suddenly, the roaring truck had already crushed directly onto that stunned face, and then, together with the alienated body, lifted it up and slammed it with all its might against the wall on the other side!
A terrifying tremor, like an earthquake, swept through the entire underground parking lot, countless dust particles fell, but this was still not the end. The truck, with more than half of its front embedded in the wall, suddenly reversed, taking that mass of bloody mess with it.
Zhu Hong fell to the ground, wanting to prop up her body, but her broken face was illuminated by the headlights again.
The truck, doing a burnout drift on the spot, its massive body flexible as a cat, slammed its cargo bed heavily against the wall. And facing her directly were only two rows of thick wheels large enough to cast a terrifying shadow.
The wheels rotated, sped, and crushed.
A scalp-numbing sound rang out continuously, but it was drowned out by the sound of rubber and anti-slip primer friction. It was like a wood chipper running at full speed.
Blood surged out from between the wheels, along with fragments of bone and internal organs.
Reenacting everything they had done to the deceased in that basement!
Inch by inch, bit by bit, completely dismembering the man-eating monster!
Until the burst tire completely fell off the drive shaft.
The lit headlights gradually extinguished.
The joyful hymn came to an end.
[Reserve spiritual quality exhausted—protocol ended—duration: 4 seconds.]
In a daze, Ji Jue was about to be swallowed by darkness, breathing with difficulty.
Originally, at the 1-second mark, he was already about to fail, but he didn't expect that when the spiritual quality was about to be drained, the watch would remind him again that there was still active aberrant spiritual quality in the remains of the giant snake on the ground.
He was almost moved to tears.
Draining it once wasn't enough, and it could still drain for so long... what brand of power bank is this?
Why is the quality so good?
But in the dead silence, under the front of the truck, a groaning sound rang out, along with the sharp sound of steel being torn... under the broken brake pads and wheel hubs, in that mass of bloody mess, a twisted and broken limb slowly lifted.
Under the remaining hair, on that ground-up face, there was no longer any charm or beauty; what remained was only nauseating violence and ferocity.
Making Ji Jue completely suffocated.
Actually, still alive!
"So fragrant, so fragrant, can't take it anymore, your scent, so fragrant, so fragrant—"
Things like pupils trembled, staring fixedly at Ji Jue’s direction, tentacles wriggling out from the internal organs, screaming and shouting hysterically.
Only the lips with half a bone left opened and closed, emitting a sharp, wild laugh: "Haha, ha, hahaha, hahahaha, you fucking are all going to..."
The scalp-numbing healing began again; no, rather than recovery, it was more like a chaotic patching and bonding; in the eerie sound mixed with crying and laughing, Zhu Hong’s arms wriggled one by one, tearing through steel, climbing out bit by bit from within...
Only a crisp sound came head-on.
From Lu Feng’s hand.
That round object, after pulling the pin, bounced flexibly on the ground, rolled playfully, and finally, landed on her face, proudly displaying the pineapple-like grid on its body.
Causing the manic, ugly expression to come to an abrupt halt.
Just like that, it offered the final fireworks.
Fire and explosion swallowed everything.
After the loud noise, the broken front of the truck was shrouded in flames, and in the incinerated flesh and blood, there was no more sound.
And Lu Feng was still vigilantly holding his pistol, aiming in that direction.
Until half a day later, no other sound came from within.
"Dead?"
He looked suspiciously at Ji Jue; Ji Jue crawled up from the ground, leaning against the wall, first using the watch to touch the aberrant spiritual quality of the two monsters, supplementing his inventory a bit, before cautiously, bit by bit, approaching, until the watch finally issued a prompt—detected external active aberrant spiritual quality, extract?
He finally breathed a sigh of relief, his whole body drenched in cold sweat.
Dead.
Dead thoroughly.
If she didn't die, they would be the ones dead. Ji Jue really had no more tricks left; if she had even a breath left to move, he could only lift his neck and invite her to eat a buffet.
It’s just a pity that he would never see such a luxurious, value-added pair of headlights again.
"Wait!"
Thinking of this, Ji Jue’s expression suddenly became serious, "If this gets out, will people say our repair shop murdered a customer for money?"
Lu Feng wanted nothing more than to kick this bastard to death: "Hurry up and get out of here, if someone comes later and sees this scene, we’ll both really be done for."
The two supported each other as they walked out, but Ji Jue’s laughter made Lu Feng feel a bit numb.
"Stop laughing, Brother Feng."
Ji Jue couldn't help but sigh, "Your laughing makes my legs tremble."
Lu Feng glared in extreme anger: "Wasn't it you laughing?"
"I..."
Ji Jue just wanted to retort, but when the two looked at each other, they realized there wasn't a hint of laughter on the other’s face, only a gradually emerging paleness.
Under the flickering lights, in the parking lot filled with corpses and blood, a cold wind echoed, bringing a hoarse laugh that made both of them shudder.
Filled with admiration and appreciation.
As if, after watching an animal performance, it was offering respect and applause to the playthings in the cage.
Slap!
In the blood, it was as if invisible rain was falling, raising layers of ripples; the invisible rain shrouded everything, until finally, the scarlet within sight was filled with eerie, undulating waves.
Amidst the waves, an eye slowly opened, and then, a second, a third, a fourth.
Countless eyes opened from the blood, looking at the last survivors of the struggle, with curiosity and joy—just as if looking at new toys.
The two froze in place.
Lu Feng swallowed his saliva: "Little Ji..."
"Hmm?"
"That move just now, can you, again..."
"It's gone, it's all gone."
Ji Jue’s expression twitched, "Even if I find something to commit suicide with again, the truck is gone!"
The only truck had been totaled by him; even if he activated the survival protocol, what else could he do, move his fingers and turn into a Cybertronian Autobot?
At this moment, his eyes were already covered by countless pop-up windows again.
[Detected external active aberrant spiritual quality, signs of alienation appearing]
[Warning, external aberrant spiritual quality activity index rising, has reached pollution threshold]
[Warning, pollution source detected approaching rapidly, alienation pollution protection initiated, initiation failed, error, error, error—]
[Error]
Ji Jue was so angry he could die; he just wanted to take out that husky-pointing-at-someone meme and ask this broken watch, besides reporting errors, what else can you do?!
Completely forgetting who it was just now that relied on Brother Watch’s spiritual quality extraction and emergency survival protocol to survive until now.
Unfortunately, calling Brother Watch or Grandpa Watch now was useless.
From the hoarse laughter, a hunched figure gradually appeared from the blood.
Thin and short, it was simply like a skin-and-bones mummy, but when those pitch-black eyes swept over, it made one feel a chill from the soul.
Just like that, the blurry figure strolled through the blood, bent down, picked up the remaining head from Zhu Hong’s remains, scrutinized the expression frozen in the last moment, and fingers slowly traced through the cracks filled with ferocity and despair.
Just, a soft laugh:
"In terms of [Fetus], your aptitude is truly barely passable; although given time, relying on this greed and viciousness, it’s not impossible to bear some poisonous fruit.
It’s a pity, at most, it’s just this level.
I had already given up hope, but I didn't expect such an unexpected surprise today—"
Those pitch-black eyes looked at the two intruders sneaking backward, looking at Ji Jue; on the blurry face, a smile seemed to curl up, filled with joy and appreciation:
"Truly, a raw piece of jade."
A hungry, covetous gaze.
Just being looked at by those eyes was enough to make Ji Jue start trembling.
Damn, there’s a pervert!
Other villains appear, all laughing to the sky, hahaha, and then casually crushing all the opponents who dared to kill their subordinates, but you alone look at this handsome little boy and start eyes shining, face blushing, so love, so like...
It’s too fucking scary!
At this moment, the surging blood suddenly rose, intertwining into an eerie nine-fingered giant hand, suddenly reaching toward Ji Jue and the others, scaring Ji Jue’s face pale:
"Big brother, I don't sell my ass, you found the wrong person!"
The blood hand paused.
On that mummy-like face, the smile seemed to stiffen for a moment, making Ji Jue more and more certain and clear: Grass, you really are plotting against my ass!
'Unfortunately', that wasn't it—
He didn't even notice what Ji Jue was saying.
Amidst the opening and closing of countless eyes, what they were looking at was a wisp of crystal light gradually appearing in the pool of blood at Ji Jue’s feet... just like a seed sprouting, growing.
A crystal-clear crystal flower grew out from the cement and iron stone.
Just like a nail, it embedded into the pool of blood, making it unable to extend another inch forward.
For a moment, time seemed to freeze there too.
Everything froze in this sudden change.
Echoing in the air, there was only a distant, long sigh.
"Finally... caught you!"
Above the ground, in front of the noisy and chaotic nightclub, the figure leaning against a motorcycle smoking a cigarette sighed lightly, flicked the cigarette ash from their hand, turned around, and long hair flew in the wind.
The flickering neon illuminated their cheeks, and the cruel smile curled at the corner of their mouth.
Just like that, raising a hand, across the long distance and the obstruction of layers of floor slabs, faintly shrouding the hunched figure in the blood, and then—five fingers clenched!
Boom!!!
The earth shook, the building groaned, and in the enclosed, foul-smelling parking lot, countless crystals like blades suddenly grew out of thin air, extended, gathered, as if turning into a giant tree, growing upward, extending downward.
Penetrating!
Easily tearing through the obstruction of matter and the counterattack of blood, crushing countless giant eyes along with the blood into powder, and then, the sound of floor slabs breaking came, loud noises rang out continuously, and that tall, slender figure fell from the spot, downward.
In an instant, it fell to the bottom level of the parking lot.
In the flickering, dim light, amidst the pervasive smoke and dust, that not-so-gentle smiling face appeared, overlooking the mummy in the blood: "In this day and age, you dogs of the Dragon Sacrifice Society actually dare to show your faces in Yacheng?"
"Super-elevation rank—"
At this moment, on the mummy’s blurry face, the playfulness and excitement vanished, as if facing a formidable enemy.
The huge parking lot was now filled with spreading, erupting blood and countless magnificent crystal trees; the dazzling crystal light and scarlet collided, strangling each other.
Just the violent wind raised was enough to blow away Ji Jue and Lu Feng, who were cowering to save their lives.
Amidst the violent wind and flying fragments, the horrified two lay on the ground, and after looking at each other, they simultaneously... looked toward the exit.
Lu Feng crawled forward, while Ji Jue followed, wriggling and creeping behind.
Although he didn't understand what happened, if he didn't run now and stayed here to applaud, was he waiting for the gods to fight and accidentally crush him?
It’s just that there was no three-hundred-round battle as expected.
Rather, it ended just as it had begun.
The moment the infinite blood erupted, the mummy had already suddenly disintegrated and disappeared without a trace, running faster than Ji Jue and the others!
Truly, there was not a shred of a powerhouse’s style or aura.
Shameful!
Ji Jue muttered to himself while stopping his creeping; the brothers looked at the black leather boots standing in front of them, slowly raised their heads, and saw Wen Wen’s face.
She tilted her head, relit a White Star, and after blowing out a puff of smoke lightly, asked with a half-smile: "Yo, you two, where are you planning to go?"
Truly, unexpected.
Facing the spreading threat of Blood Thirst Syndrome, the Security Bureau itself monitored the alarm records of various regions, and when encountering abnormal situations and cases, they would always check and dispatch.
After Tong Hua found out the attacker’s whereabouts, Wen Wen, who arrived, thought she was already too late and might have made a wasted trip.
She didn't expect to see such a strange sight.
One can only say that the world is truly wonderful.
And facing such a nuclear-level smile, Lu Feng’s expression twitched, and his other hand quietly stuffed the piece of... black, soft, gelatinous substance he had just fished out of his bag back in, stuffing it deeper.
The pity was that Lu Feng was truly not good with words and could only nudge Ji Jue beside him, telling him to quickly say a few smooth words to ease the awkward atmosphere.
After Ji Jue stammered for a long time, he managed to squeeze out a business-like, enthusiastic smile: "Big sister, when did you arrive?"
"Hmm, let me think."
Wen Wen pinched her chin, as if thinking, and soon, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, "From the moment you said you’ve been working like a dog your whole life, not to become that kind of thing..."
"Don't, don't say it, I beg you!"
Ji Jue felt his whole body tense up; even though this bullshit was something he had just said, his toes couldn't help but subconsciously curl into the floor, feeling that this shitty parking lot owed him a three-bedroom apartment.
"Thank you, big sister, for saving us from suffering!"
He coughed for a long time, finally crawled up from the ground, and cupped his hands: "Please rest assured, we brothers will absolutely not tell anyone about what happened today and cause you trouble.
Mountains don't turn, water turns, mountains and water will meet again, another day we will—"
Before he finished speaking, he dragged Lu Feng and prepared to run.
It was a pity that he still couldn't run.
An ID card unfolded in front of him.
"Let me introduce myself, I am Wen Wen, the supervisor of the North Mountain Department of the Yacheng Security Bureau; simply put, I am the neighborhood police officer responsible for this North Mountain area."
Saying this, she pressed on the two’s shoulders, 'enthusiastically' inviting:
"Shall we find a place to chat?"
Half an hour later, the motorcycle and Ji Jue’s little scooter were both left on the side of the road.
Yacheng Night Market, a bustling and noisy food stall, people coming and going, a scene of busyness.
Slap!
A pitcher of ice beer and a mountain of East City skewers were slapped in front of the two.
"Come, let's have one—"
Wen Wen was the first to pick up the beer mug, tilted her head back, and started chugging; after finishing it in one go, she gave a refreshing burp and started gnawing on edamame.
No interrogation room, no slogans about leniency for confessions, and no good cop-bad cop tricks.
In a daze, Ji Jue and Lu Feng looked at each other.
"Uh..." Ji Jue started by asking: "Didn't you say, you wanted to ask..."
Before he finished speaking, a glass of beer was stuffed into his hand, and with a clink, they toasted; Wen Wen shook her head indifferently: "It’s past work hours, why are you in such a rush to work overtime, drink!"
Ji Jue wanted to say something but stopped.
At this point, the fact that he couldn't drink at all was completely impossible to say!
In a daze, unknowingly switching from beer to red, red to white, after finishing who knows how many glasses, Ji Jue lay on the table, only feeling that this big sister’s drinking capacity was as unfathomable as her bosom.
Then, there was no then.
He drank himself out.
Ah, please follow, please give monthly tickets, please give everything, woo woo woo woo woo.
