Chapter 44: Break Through The Siege, Loot The Corpses And Get Rich
Abbot Duowen Buddha Tomato successfully came into being, and the Ceremony reached its peak.
With it as the absolute center, the flower plate cheeks looked up at the Starry Sky, and the Buddha Cocoon Sariras connected by flower stamens burst forth with blood-colored Starlight, delivering streams of Filthy Bone Demonic Blood into the bodies of the civilians.
At this moment, whether it was the red-headed Tomato Persons or normal Humans, all looked up at the Starry Sky, greedily sucking in the Emperor Flowing Pulp of the ‘Starlight’ filling the sky, giving the scene an indescribable mystical romance.
Starlight entered their bodies, converging into their own Green Skeleton Demonic Cocoons, transforming into thick Filthy Blood Vitality, strengthening their Muscles and Bones, and dyeing their eyes with green.
Those civilians with weak wills stopped chanting sutras, their Bones directly undergoing secondary development and growth, Muscles rapidly bulging, transforming into super warriors. Some overly muscular parts simply grew sharp Bone Spurs, piercing the Skin to become Weapons.
They looked up and sniffed around wildly, then burst into a sprint with a turn, pouncing on their nearby kin. Claws swung out to twist necks, the other claw quickly tearing off the opponent’s Green Skeleton Buddha Cocoon and tossing it into the mouth, chewing and swallowing hard with an expression of bliss.
Unlike those mad Beasts, the Ye Kingdom residents, though infected by Filthy Blood, retained some sanity under the blessing of the Skeleton Demonic Cocoon, even carrying a bloody Buddhahood, like a Buddha entering the Demonic Path, transforming into a great terrifying angry visage.
The harder they tried to suppress their bloodthirsty Desires and murderous intent, struggling to chant sutras to suppress their Inner Demons. The more they couldn’t withstand the temptation of the splashing Tomato Juice and Blood, they would roar and directly Enter the Demonic Path, lost in slaughter, striking down mercilessly on the delicious prey nearby.
In the attacks and Fierce Combat, civilians turned Demonic Humans who had never learned Martial Arts occasionally displayed a few Buddhist Martial Arts moves by instinct. Combined with super strong Life Activity and somewhat reckless Intelligence, their threat level kept rising, completely outclassing the garbage Filthy Bone Beasts.
At this time, Yuan Zhu’s group mixed in the crowd stood out especially conspicuously.
They were not infected by Filthy Blood, nor did they grow Skeleton Demonic Cocoons on their bodies, their aura exceptionally Pure. They appeared so abruptly among the clustered Filthy Bone Demonic Humans, immediately becoming the focal point of the killing field.
Fortunately, along the way, they had taken turns practicing on lone small Demonic Creatures, so they were no longer inexperienced Newcomers.
Even Mai Lili, with the smallest courage, gritted her teeth and raised her Rifle to shoot, screaming desperately in her mouth: “Aaaah…!” which not only drowned out the gunfire but also overpowered the Demonic Humans’ shrill roars, making her the best banshee on the field.
In an instant, six fire tongues spat out simultaneously, cross-firing, splattering green Flesh and causing the Demonic Creatures to scream incessantly.
Especially the shortest Grandma Yu, under Uniform Reinforcement, transformed into a Rifle-wielding bandit granny, professionally weaving back and forth with sweeping fire, protecting the trembling Little Goat behind her, forcing the pouncing Filthy Bone Demonic Humans to retreat with blood spraying from their bodies. She even occasionally delivered a high-speed flying kick in mid-air, leaving Lu Rang full of envy.
Why couldn’t his Uniform cultivate that?
The brief clash immediately showed the difference between Demonic Humans and mad Beasts.
That group of polluted Beasts had no Brain, only charging mindlessly to their deaths. But these infected Humans and Tomato types were different; after being Repelled hard once, they no longer approached, instead retreating and dodging repeatedly.
But they did not leave, their eyes flashing with intelligence as they hid behind companions while circling for opportunities. Yuan Zhu’s Squad quickly swapped Magazines, picked a direction with fewer people, and broke through toward it.
Those lingering Filthy Bone Demonic Humans who refused to retreat also pressed in bit by bit like a tide, following the Squad’s movement. They still did not attack proactively, instead competing with each other to finish off companions lying on the ground, sieved by bullets but still struggling to crawl, digging out the green Skeleton Demonic Cocoons, swallowing them urgently, then swarming to divide up the Flesh remains.
Their mouths even muttered things like, my Buddha is merciful? Thanks for the alms! Heaven’s grace! Flesh offerings.
Lu Rang cried out in horror: “They actually still have intelligence?!”
“Ignorant fool, the stronger and more terrifying the Filthy Bone Demonic Creatures, the better they can suppress their own Desires, acting like humble and polite normal people. But the more normal the exterior, the more twisted perverted Desires accumulate deep in their hearts.” Zhou Chu simply stated the stereotypes she learned at the Security Bureau.
It was clear that those Green Demonic Cocoons, after absorbing Starlight, had also undergone Transformation into some kind of Energy Core.
Yuan Zhu recalled that the Captain had said they could consider feeding the Uniforms with Monks’ ‘Buddha Cocoon + Buddha Blood’ to nurture Power Seeds biased toward Buddhism. Now, all the more reliable Monks had been lured by Abbot Duowen to self-destruct their heads, refined into red Buddha Cocoons connected to his head flower.
Now, since they weren’t afraid of the pollution Side Effect of Filthy Bone Demonic Blood, these Skeleton Demonic Cocoons could substitute, to feed and cultivate the Uniforms.
As if sensing Yuan Zhu and the others’ thoughts, Zhou Chu warned while retreating: “Unless absolutely necessary, absolutely do not use these Demonic Humans to Reinforce your Uniforms. After this Mission ends and we return to the Present World, I will immediately report all your information!”
Hearing this, Lu Rang looked despairing: This Young Lady is so heartless! And we’re companions who are experiencing life and death together. If he’d known, he would have given a fake identity during the self-introduction.
Yuan Zhu didn’t react much; he had a cheat, so this small scene was no big deal! He even felt an itch to kill wildly. What he worried about instead was the mastermind behind it all, Abbot Duowen Buddha Tomato.
When he glanced over with his peripheral vision, Abbot Duowen Buddha Tomato had gone still. Dead?
Unsure if transmitting Filthy Blood to enlighten sentient beings had consumed too much Magic Power? Or if the Magic Net had been voluntarily dispelled by him. At this time, the Abbot dragged over a dozen Tomato Monsters to the Plaza center, sat cross-legged, and remained motionless.
The ground originally stained red by Tomato Monks’ head explosions and Tomato Juice now sprouted countless Eggplant Seedlings, which at this moment bathed in Starlight and grew wildly, forming a small eggplant forest that enveloped the Abbot and over a dozen Tomato Monsters, creating a giant green hemisphere that Isolated inside from outside.
Thus, ‘Abbot Duowen Buddha Tomato’ paid no attention to the external slaughter at this time.
Seeing the Abbot make no more moves, Yuan Zhu shouted loudly: “Great opportunity, let’s flee quickly!”
Zhou Chu nodded: “You go, I’ll cover your retreat!”
With that, she tossed aside her empty Firearm, a red glove appearing on her right hand, then swung it forcefully, pulling out a long Chain from thin air, whirling it into a huge semicircle to whip and send flying the approaching Demonic Humans, protecting everyone.
Although she threatened not to let anyone touch the Filthy Blood Demonic Cocoons, stepping up in the Crisis still showed responsibility.
Meng Xiyue flattered: “Sister Zhou, you’re the best! Love you!”
As the team kept breaking through, after killing or maiming a large swath of Demonic Humans. The remaining ones learned, still trailing from afar, continuously picking off the pitiful ones heavily wounded by the Squad. The rest continued absorbing the rampant Starlight overhead, accumulating foundation, getting Stronger bit by bit.
At this moment, Yuan Zhu’s heart stirred, and countless transparent Threads surged out from inside his Uniform, piercing into his Skin.
After a burst of stinging itchiness, he successfully controlled the Uniform, then curved his right fingers forcefully, with massive Threads pouring from his sleeve, wrapping and enveloping his right hand, shaping into a black glove.
Then he ran to Zhou Chu’s side, frequently bending down, fingers stabbing into the bodies of Filthy Bone Demonic Humans that wouldn’t die no matter what, grabbing the elastic Green Skeleton Demonic Cocoon, stepping one foot on the opponent’s chest, pulling the Demonic Cocoon with full body strength, the other hand swinging a Dagger to sever the connecting tendons, harvesting Green Demonic Cocoons one by one and tossing them into his pocket.
The Uniform unconditionally accommodated the host’s every action; when he reached for his pocket, it automatically opened. After tossing in the Demonic Cocoon, the pocket automatically closed, Isolating the aura leakage.
After wrapping a Demonic Human with the Chain and using it as a meteor hammer for a wild dance, smashing and Repelling one Demonic Human after another, Zhou Chu turned to check if the Squad had evacuated cleanly, only to see a back bent over diligently harvesting Fruit.
She immediately flew into a rage: “Yuan Zhu! What are you doing?”
Yuan Zhu looked up with an enthusiastic, cheerful sunny smile: “Of course I’m cutting the grass and roots! If you slay demons but not the Demonic Path, it grows back with the spring breeze.”
“You…” The Miss was about to curse but held back, demanding: “I said you can’t use these Demonic Cocoons to feed the Uniform! Are you tired of living?”
Yuan Zhu moved nimbly, kicking to snap the neck of a Demonic Human trying to bite him, then swiftly grabbing its shoulder Demonic Cocoon, stretching it long before swinging the knife to cut the adhesions, answering without looking up: “Don’t worry, I’m not feeding the Uniform at all, I’m just purely collecting this stuff. The Captain said Buddha Cocoons are Monks’ Energy Cores, Physical Body Sariras. This thing can definitely sell for money in the Space of Gods. Isn’t tonight’s trial Mission all about making fortune by skill?”
Zhou Chu was furious, choking out: “That’s also my spoils of war!”
“No rush, fifty-fifty split, how’s that?” Yuan Zhu stood up, shaking off the green Blood from the Dagger, looking eagerly at the Miss, asking expectantly, “Shall we do one more round?!”
Click click click!
Zhou Chu angrily clenched her delicate fist, viciously swinging the Chain in her hand to vent. The Chain turned into an arc-shaped giant wave surging forward, smoothly exploding the nearest Filthy Bone Demonic Human’s Head, making Yuan Zhu’s eyelids twitch wildly.
“Forget it, fleeing is priority, safety first!”
