Chapter 916

~5 min read 955 words

Only then did he realize that there could be different existences among humans, and that there were powerful players who could bring a sense of threat.

And regarding this,

the chef also developed a sense of urgency, wanting to kill Lin Ye as quickly as possible to ensure his own safety,

and even more so because Lin Ye had set his sights on the restaurant, which made him even more determined to solve Lin Ye and kill this threat.

If he lost the restaurant, he would lose everything.

The restaurant was the one thing he absolutely would not allow anyone to covet.

Therefore,

when he acted, it was mixed with more anger and killing intent; every strike was aimed at a lethal degree, no longer toying with the prey as he had initially, enjoying the process, and ensuring the freshness of the ingredients.

But for Lin Ye,

in the Time Stop state, no matter how powerful the enemy was, they couldn't pose any threat to him.

The chef had high combat power, and he couldn't break his defense.

But now,

he had found a method.

Although he couldn't be sure, he had to try.

"I should have tried it during the previous Time Stop."

Lin Ye shook his head and came to the chef's side.

"This kitchen knife is so obvious, so sharp, why didn't I take it to try? Even if it's useless, there's no loss."

Lin Ye felt regretful that he hadn't thought of using the Time Stop immediately during the last one.

He reached out with both hands, one gripping the chef's wrist, the other holding the handle of the kitchen knife.

"So tight..."

It was stuck inside.

Lin Ye spent quite a while with 'thud, thud, thud...' before the chef's tightly gripped right hand loosened a bit.

He successfully obtained this kitchen knife.

Silver metallic blade, wisps of red bloodstains.

He didn't know how many times this kitchen knife had slaughtered.

This time,

he would use this kitchen knife to solve and kill its holder.

Lin Ye gripped it tight, his eyes becoming sharp, his muscles tensed.

The next second,

he slashed fiercely at the chef's neck.

'Whoosh...'

The kitchen knife swept past, whistling through the air.

The blade entered the flesh.

It was completely different from the rebounding sensation of the previous dagger.

Lin Ye raised a smile of victory.

The key item of this restaurant was the kitchen knife, this one and only kitchen knife.

Lin Ye had gone to the back kitchen while invisible before; there were many tableware and kitchenware, but there was no kitchen knife,

not even a fruit knife.

This was one of the reasons he had placed his suspicion on the chef's kitchen knife.

A unique item is often endowed with special rules.

Combined with the fact that the chef used the kitchen knife to dissect countless corpses,

this led Lin Ye to believe that the kitchen knife was the key item to solving the chef.

And now, the feedback of it entering the flesh was the best evidence.

His analysis was correct.

Following that, Lin Ye slashed at the chef's shoulder, chest, abdomen, and thighs.

He also slashed at the head, but whether it was due to the rules or the chef's own skull, the kitchen knife didn't successfully cut in.

In the short time of the Time Stop,

Lin Ye poured all his strength into it, slashing at various parts of the chef's body, one knife after another.

Until the second before the Time Stop ended, he moved away from the chef at the fastest speed.

The Time Stop ended.

'Boom...'

Following the charge and inertia, the chef continued to rush forward, crashing into the wall with a 'boom'.

"Pain..."

Very painful.

Every part of his body was in pain.

Just crashing into a wall was this painful?

The chef kept voicing his doubts.

He didn't understand, he didn't understand at all.

This wasn't reasonable.

With his physique, it shouldn't be this painful even after crashing a few times.

The chef blinked and supported himself with one hand, discovering the four bloodstains on his own arm.

He was bleeding?

And so much?

As he moved, his whole body felt like it was tearing apart.

Blood stained everything, with only red remaining.

How could this be?

And the few waiters in the distance were also dumbfounded.

As bystanders, they observed the chef's condition even more clearly.

The chef, who had been unscathed a second ago, was now covered in wounds, red blood continuously flowing, and his abdomen even had intestines exposed, while the bloodstains on his neck were clearly striking.

They also couldn't figure it out; they didn't understand what had happened in that short moment just now.

"I..."

"What happened to me?"

"My kitchen knife, my kitchen knife!"

He turned his head and saw Lin Ye holding his kitchen knife, blood dripping down.

That was fresh blood, that was his fresh blood.

At this moment,

he seemed to understand something.

Lin Ye had found the key item and successfully snatched it from his hand.

His spinning brain still found it hard to imagine how Lin Ye had done it.

Even if the opponent could think that the kitchen knife was the key item, it was impossible to snatch it silently and slash him so many times in such a short time.

"You..."

"Skill... blessing..."

What exactly was it?

He wanted an explanation.

"Tell me... how... you did it,"

"let me die... understanding."

'Clang...'

He knelt on the ground powerlessly, his burly figure losing all its deterrence at this moment.

And Lin Ye stood where he was, not rushing to approach.

He was very cautious, trying to avoid the possibility of being counter-killed.
