"More than ninety Yuan Force, it's not an ordinary little monster anymore."
Tao Yu sensed it for a moment, and it seemed to be the most expensive monster they had encountered in this fragment so far, equal to about three of the regular monsters.
The skill was still that single one.
"All monsters originate from this kind of change, I hope it gives a bit of power."
Meanwhile, An Zhijie beside him swallowed and kept looking at Tao Yu with a strange gaze.
Tao Yu's ability to suppress the Alien Queen didn't surprise him with its strength.
He was just surprised why the other became so easy to talk to all of a sudden.
Even when threatened by the lame uncle with a gun, he just cursed once.
Was he really a good person?
An Zhijie couldn't help but think of the bloody scenes where the other slaughtered those monsters along the way.
It was the stuff of nightmares.
"Why are you looking at me like that? I've always been benevolent, maybe you have some misunderstanding about me."
"Sorry, sorry."
An Zhijie quickly apologized, sharp as ever. Whether it was a misunderstanding or not, having the other be this way actually felt safer; he truly hoped the other was 'benevolent'!
"Are there many monsters like this in the apartment?"
Tao Yu looked down at his completely burst tactical boots, simply took off the damaged shoes, and stepped barefoot onto the ground.
With the current physical condition, and the bear-like ability with its side effects, common small stones and glass should not be a worry for injuring his feet.
It just felt a bit strange to go barefoot.
"So far, not too many, but not too few either, these creatures are very Sensitive to sound."
The uncle in the wheelchair seemed to be making up for something, as he wheeled towards the room and said,
"I have shoes for you, very sturdy ones."
Tao Yu followed him while retorting with a sharp tongue,
"Plenty of poor-quality ones, I bet."
"They're mine from the past; I've served too, they're military boots."
The uncle in the wheelchair rebutted.
"Did you see his clothes? He's a pilot."
Tao Yu seemed unconcerned.
"Were you sent by the authorities for a rescue? Was that big-eyed monster killed by you?"
The uncle in the wheelchair asked opportunely.
"That monster was killed by this gentleman. The situation is a bit complicated now, I'll explain to all of you later."
An Zhijie explained at this moment.
Seeing this, the uncle in the wheelchair didn't ask any further questions. He opened the door, searched through a cabinet covered in dust, and picked out a pair of military boots for Tao Yu.
In the meantime, Che Xianxiu, who had been rigidly held in a princess carry by Cao Shaolin, also woke up confusedly.
Looking at Cao Shaolin holding her, she was a bit lost for a moment but quickly came to her senses.
Upon spotting Little Black in the shadows, she gasped in fright.
"Quiet down, that's this young man's pet. It doesn't bite, but your noise could attract..."
The walking hundred thousand Yuan Force...
Even if not the first worth, at least fifty thousand as a base!
Hearing what Tao Yu said, the previously complaining wheelchair uncle, as well as the father and his two sons, were all stunned.
But fortunately, after a moment of being stunned, apart from the father putting his children behind him, there weren't any excessive reactions.
Someone jumped out from nowhere and fought the monster like that, and they had a monster that didn't bite beside them... perhaps monsters weren't so scary after all...
"I don't know, but shouldn't we go help him first? It looks quite painful."
Che Xianxiu shrank his neck, unsure how to describe the sensation he had felt earlier.
"No need, it's a good test, have killed many of these things, don't worry."
The ceiling was shaking off dust because of the vibrations from the fight, but Tao Yu's words seemed very nonchalant.
Hearing this, Che Xianxiu obediently described his situation.
"I don't know, but before I passed out, it felt like someone was constantly telling me to destroy the world. It felt like I was going to split personalities, besieged by negative emotions."
"So you suppressed it?"
A gleam appeared in Tao Yu's eyes, it had to be him!
The protagonist is the special individual capable of suppressing the transformation into a monster, no mistake!
And just then, as Wino was sent flying once again, a white figure suddenly burst out from the stairwell, leaping onto the back of the muscle monster, fiercely gouging its eyes.
"Ah, it's the aunt from before."
The daughter among the father and sons raised her voice at this moment.
If it hadn't been for that aunt's desperate intervention, they would have never made it here.
"Hm?"
Tao Yu fell into thought as he observed the figure attacking the muscle monster.
Although much weaker than the muscle monster in strength, well below the monster's, she was beyond the scope of normal humans and was likely monsterized.
"Quick, take the kids and go."
The figure was clinging deathly onto the muscle monster, still blurting out indistinct words.
This left Tao Yu somewhat baffled.
Another person who retained their sanity after monsterization?
The female lead?
Glancing back at Che Xianxiu, who dared not move, and then at the woman being violently torn off and tossed aside like a rag doll by the muscle monster, Tao Yu felt that she seemed more like the protagonist.
Never mind, I want them both!
Tao Yu began walking toward the muscle monster, his footsteps hastening.
At the same time, his thumb flicked out the knife handle, and he grabbed it.
"It looks very solid, might not be able to burst it..."
Crane form!
A flash of the blade, perfectly integrating the Crane form power technique, and instantly cutting lines appeared all over the burly muscle monster's body. Then, it disintegrated into chunks of flesh on the ground...
Just as Tao Yu was sheathing his knife, another man with glasses holding a long knife and a beautiful woman with a baseball bat came out from the stairwell, staring dumbfounded at the writhing chunks of flesh on the floor.
Tao Yu, seeing the bespectacled priest with the long knife and the pretty girl beside him, fell into pondering again.
"Korean dramas always have a romantic element, right? I get the feeling that this guy might also be the protagonist..."
