Lovecraftian World, But I Spread Curses – Chapter 22

Ferocious

Chapter 22: Ferocious

Chen Jinshan was Yu Lianyun’s acquaintance in Jiunian City, the Law Enforcement Captain who often transferred corpses to Yu Lianyun’s family’s mortuary.

Regarding the matter of the female corpse, after discovering the existence of an anomaly in the female corpse, the Mysterious Group had already paid great attention to it, focusing on and investigating everyone who had direct or indirect contact with the female corpse, including this Law Enforcement Captain from Jiunian City.

But unexpectedly, even after their Mysterious Group’s rigorous and meticulous investigation, there was still one oversight, and Chen Jinshan, who had briefly contacted the corpse, was still occupied by dimensional life in an unknown manner.

The fact was right before their eyes now, with no room for any argument.

“You all control her, I’ll deal with Chen Jinshan.” Li Yingqi said. Compared to the male whose power had a greater advantage, the influence from her withdrawing would be relatively smaller.

“Good!” Wei Jiang and the other Mysterious Group investigators agreed in unison.

Li Yingqi immediately released Yu Lianyun’s feet and stepped aside, took off the pistol at her waist, aimed at the broken door opening, and without hesitation, fired directly.

Once occupied by dimensional life completes the flesh and blood occupation, it also means the occupied person’s body has undergone corresponding modification and is no longer human. Li Yingqi naturally had less of a heavy burden when drawing her gun to kill.

After several gunshots, several blood holes burst open on Chen Jinshan’s body outside the door, but Chen Jinshan did not make a single wail.

Chen Jinshan moved slightly, and then a sharp ice blade suddenly stabbed in through the tightly closed door. The ice blade cut iron like mud, and with a light slash, the hospital room door was split in two. A middle-aged man with eyes rolled back, hunched figure, and a huge flesh tumor bulging on his back appeared before everyone.

With a strange roar from Chen Jinshan, the clothing fabric straining on his back instantly broke through. At the top of the flesh tumor hidden under the clothes, strips of cracks suddenly appeared, opening into ferocious five fingers. Who could have thought that it was actually an extremely long arm with several joints on the arm, allowing it to hang high up, like a scorpion’s tail, emanating a dangerous aura.

“As expected, his body has been occupied by the Three-handed Ice Giant.” Li Yingqi gritted her teeth.

The so-called Three-handed Ice Giant was the name given to this newly discovered abnormal race after confirming the general form of the dimensional life behind the female corpse, very straightforward, vivid, and apt.

The third arm on Chen Jinshan’s back slightly moved its finger bones, then clenched into a fist. The arm stretched and extended, smashing down like a huge swing hammer.

Li Yingqi ran to dodge. The opponent’s third arm was flexible like tentacles, swaying casually, and with a casual smash, it could create web-like cracks on the solid floor.

Chen Jinshan controlled the third arm to pursue Li Yingqi relentlessly. Li Yingqi was forced to stay at a certain distance from Chen Jinshan.

Although Chen Jinshan’s offensive was fierce, Li Yingqi gradually discovered Chen Jinshan’s weakness: when he used the third arm to attack, his movement speed would correspondingly slow down a lot. In that case, to Li Yingqi, who was proficient with firearms, Chen Jinshan was no different from a fixed target.

Bang bang bang…

One magazine of bullets fired empty, nearly ninety percent of the bullets landing on Chen Jinshan’s body. His whole body sprayed blood crazily from the blood holes, and the negative effects of excessive blood loss gradually showed on Chen Jinshan.

At a certain moment, Chen Jinshan’s knee was hit. The opponent immediately went weak in both legs and knelt on the ground, unable to stand up again.

In response, the Three-handed Ice Giant possessing Chen Jinshan’s body felt deep bewilderment, as if it did not understand why this body, after undergoing modification, was still so vulnerable.

The answer was simple: the bullets equipped by Mysterious Group investigators were all specially made, with lethality nearly three times that of normal equipped bullets.

Although the Three-handed Ice Giant’s modification of human flesh was exaggerated enough, it was far from reaching the level of being able to take specialized bullets head-on.

“Go die.” Li Yingqi decisively fired a shot at Chen Jinshan’s head. The latter’s expression immediately went blank, his whole body trembled, and he fell to the ground.

Seeing Chen Jinshan fall, Li Yingqi did not relax her vigilance but fired several more shots at Chen Jinshan’s head continuously until another magazine was emptied.

At this moment, Chen Jinshan had been beaten into a sieve, completely unrecognizable as human, lying motionless on the ground covered in blood. It could almost be determined that this body was thoroughly scrapped.

Wei Jiang and the others, who were busy restraining the out-of-control Yu Lianyun, couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief upon seeing this, but soon they felt a powerful force from Yu Lianyun’s body. Before they could even change their facial expressions, they were instantly flung away by Yu Lianyun.

Yu Lianyun was kneeling painfully on the ground, hands holding her head, with an ominous black mist surging from her body. At the same time, ice began forming under her knees, gradually spreading to the surroundings.

“This is!?” Wei Jiang felt caught off guard. After sensing an anomalous brainwave transfer from Chen Jinshan’s corpse to Yu Lianyun’s body, his expression changed drastically. “So that’s it. The Three-handed Ice Giant possessing Chen Jinshan’s body wants to change bodies. Its target is actually Yu Lianyun!”

Just as the Mysterious Group investigators hesitated whether to kill the danger right now, they were surprised to discover a blue glow, faintly outlining the contour of a humanoid monster—that should be the Three-handed Ice Giant’s spirit body, seemingly struggling to escape Yu Lianyun’s body.

Everyone was stunned. This monster had clearly run into someone’s body on its own, so why did it suddenly regret it?

Urgh—

Suddenly, a low, drawn-out choking sound rang out, ear-piercing and grating. That sound, unlike anything a normal human could make, came from Yu Lianyun’s heart and lungs, through her throat and vocal cords.

The eerie black mist wrapping Yu Lianyun’s body suddenly turned into several black ghost hands, directly grabbing the Three-handed Ice Giant’s spirit body firmly and pulling it back into Yu Lianyun’s body.

After a teeth-gritting grinding and chewing sound, the black mist on Yu Lianyun’s body merged back into her body again. She herself fell heavily to the ground with the black mist’s return and fell unconscious once more.

At this moment, the plaster on Yu Lianyun’s body was shattered, revealing the fair skin hidden beneath the plaster—smooth and tight, showing no bruising or swelling from any limb injuries.

The four Mysterious Group investigators on the scene looked at each other in bewilderment. No one knew what that power hidden in Yu Lianyun’s body was, that it even came with its own cure and healing ability?!

……

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

He Jia’an and Bu Gaojun were sprinting madly in the dangerous shelter corridor, with countless plant roots chasing relentlessly behind them, like a massive tide of man-eating ants.

He Jia’an was very frustrated by this. Just moments ago, suddenly all the plant roots in the floor came alive and became highly aggressive, instinctively wanting to catch every fresh life and use their bodies to nurture seeds.

As the freshest big fish currently on this floor, these plants naturally all craved He Jia’an and Bu Gaojun, immediately launching a madness pursuit against them.

“Why were they suddenly startled awake?” He Jia’an found it abnormal. These plants should have been in a satiated resting state after absorbing the corpses of dozens of Mysterious Group investigators, with many corpses not even digested yet. They shouldn’t lack food. They had walked through the dense flesh and blood jungle earlier without being attacked by the plants—that was the best proof.

However, things had suddenly changed now.

Urgh—

Roar!!

In the moment of bewilderment, the corridor instantly echoed with successive strange roars. The entire building shook violently, as if two terrifying monster kings were confronting each other not far ahead, their powerful forces shaking the space where the building stood.

Humans in this world are too vulnerable; seeing a winged hound in a graveyard causes them to lose their reason, a mere glance at a statue of a tentacled bodhisattva in a crowd leads to endless nightmares and inability to eat or sleep, a fleeting glimpse of a black goat's hoof under the forest shade sends them into a panic... they are simply too vulnerable! People's joys and sorrows are not interconnected. They all seem to live in unease and fear, but Lin Ling only finds them noisy. "The best method to eliminate fear is to face it. This is a video tape full of blessings." Lin Ling handed a black video tape to the guest who suffered from dimensional power intrusions daily, and smiled, "If it's useful, don't forget a five-star good review." Setting up a small dwelling in the forest, the small dwelling sells various consecrated and blessed objects. The boss is actually a mental patient who has transmigrated.
