Chapter 109: Full Moon

The wellhead seemingly moved with the gesture, but there was another purpose in mind. A thick, tenacious plant root grew from the palm of his hand, deeply embedding itself in the wall of the well, Imitating a scene in “Tarzan,” Yi Chen swung in mid-air by the root and hurled his body toward the river bank below. His feet landed steadily without an extra motion, “Come quickly!” a voice from a girl whispered from the shadows. “Wait for me a moment.” Yi Chen did not rush out immediately; he needed to wait and make sure the Village Chief would follow him down. One second, two seconds, three seconds… Boom! The huge figure wrapped in a black trench coat suddenly fell down, the water of the three-meter-deep underground lake was blasted upwards, then fell back down like rain. The dark silhouette stood at the center of the lake bottom, staring directly at the provocateur. Clearly, the Village Chief was completely infuriated. However, this was precisely the outcome Yi Chen desired. Beneath the pig head mask, a bizarre smile appeared, followed by a swift turn and retreat, moving rapidly through the complex underground passages. All route planning was managed by the girl, Lene. Although not as fast as the Village Chief, Yi Chen managed to use some narrow passage gaps to block the Village Chief, continually increasing their distance, always hearing the sound of rock layers being shattered behind him. The Village Chief was clearly determined to catch the thief, utterly unconcerned about the state of the village above. This chase lasted for over twenty minutes. The location of everyone had completely deviated from the village, even approaching the edge of the high wall. Yi Chen followed the girl, squeezing sideways through a narrow stone gap, the Village Chief behind him let his shoulders harden, charging forward with brute force… Boom! The stone gap was easily broken open, but what lay ahead was no longer a straight passage, but a deep pit area. The overzealous Village Chief fell straight into it, falling for about fifty meters… Thump! He smashed heavily into the bottom of the deep pit, splashing a large amount of mud. “Is this… the High Wall Base?” The Village Chief’s rage slowly subsided as he observed the surrounding thick tree roots, some of which were even thicker than his body. The live roots wriggled like giant reptiles, sucking up the nutrients from this place. And the ‘thief’ wearing the pig head mask was not far off, with a girl in white standing beside him, someone the Village Chief had never seen before. No longer hiding his identity, the ‘thief’ undid the stitching around his neck, removed the pig head mask, revealing that familiar youthful face. The Village Chief’s face was full of astonishment; it had been a long time since he had been so surprised. “How are you still alive! Your heart had clearly been harvested, and on the way to the factory, I had confirmed your death!” For a moment, the Village Chief’s anger was replaced by surprise, and there was also a certain wariness. He was wary of the strange state Yi Chen had once shown, a state that exuded an aura of death, even overpowering that of the newly born umbilical. Because of this, seaʀᴄh thё nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. the Village Chief did not attack the ‘revived’ young man immediately, but observed quietly, ready to harness the new power from the umbilical. Seeing that the Village Chief stayed where he was, Yi Chen calmly undid the buttons of his top, opened his shirt and waistcoat, revealing his pierced chest. “Indeed, you harvested my heart, and since you, Village Chief, have a way to be reborn even when the ‘Pathogen Core’ is destroyed, I naturally have ways to not die. ŔäΝo͍฿Ε???? I’m curious though; the village is clearly in chaos, and yet you don’t care at all, instead, you followed me, a thief, all the way here. Is it because the village is no longer of any use to you? Or does the Church no longer need the village’s ‘supplies’? “You’re too late…” The Village Chief’s simple response made Yi Chen understand the severity of the situation, then, the Village Chief stepped forward with heavy steps, attacking boldly, completely disregarding the girl beside him who was like a ghost emitting no aura. ‘Root Piercing’ Three thick roots, enhanced with the power of Casting Gloves, shot towards the Village Chief like spears. Ding ding ding! The sound of hammering echoed at the High Wall Base. The roots that struck the Village Chief’s body were all deflected, beneath the pierced clothes was a flesh akin to rock and steel. “As expected, very tough… No wonder someone as strong as Jin, the gentleman, had to trigger multiple targeted explosions, sacrificing his weapon, to achieve ‘Break Defense.’ Such physically powered Severe Patients are truly troublesome. No wonder Little Grape insisted that I retrieve my weapon before considering combat with the Village Chief.” When Yi Chen retracted the roots in his palm, the giant figure of the Village Chief was already standing in front of him, nearly blocking 90% of his field of vision. Mr. Li did not possess a triple-section arm or an independent tail structure like some other mechanical beasts. As a severe patient, the Village Chief embodied pure physicality. With a heavy and swift slap coming from the side, the force of the palm wind even caused Yi Chen’s clothes to flutter. “Such terrifying brute strength!” Seizing the opportunity, Yi Chen crouched and leaped, perfectly dodging the slap, Suddenly, mid-air, Yi Chen’s posture changed dramatically, his hands gripping the axe above and below. The left hand pressed down on the base sculpture, while the right hand pulled up on the axe handle, Accompanied by a series of mechanical friction noises, the handle lengthened to twice its size and the axe head transformed into a double-bladed shape, resembling a full moon. The entire assembly glowed with a pale white light, and the mouse sculpture at the base took on a prayerful pose, with a Moon Seal emerging on the forehead. “Full Moon Form” If the Slaughter Form was an expression of Mr. Li’s “innate ferocity,” then the Full Moon Form was a perfect interpretation of the Moon Transformation Disease. As the weapon transformed, Yi Chen’s aura also changed completely from before, no longer carrying any killing intent or any sense of madness and impulse. Instead, it was quiet. It was as if everything around became silent, Yi Chen’s face relaxed and comfortable, his pupils reflecting the pattern of a full moon, as if enjoying the moon in midair. Suddenly, he broke this silence himself, Twisting his waist and turning his back, his arms pressed down! Drawing down the full moon diagonally towards the Village Chief’s neck… Clang! In the moon night, a clanging sound echoed, but the full moon failed to cut through the Village Chief’s neck. The strike only left a one-centimeter mark on the neck, not even drawing blood, completely failing to break his defense. However, at the incision, a luminescent moonlight spilled out, imprinting a “Moonlight Mark.” At the same time, Hundreds of kilometers away from Shebolt Village in a certain human city, A silver-haired young man sat on the edge of a hospital rooftop, enjoying the hazy moon through dense clouds. A female doctor next to him was monitoring the infusion state, and the head mounted on a metal rod rotated smoothly, constantly checking for possible dangers around them, Suddenly, The young man seemed to sense something and stood up, tiptoeing to gaze in a certain direction. “Is it the aura of the moon…William? Do you really need my power to cure this disease?” The young man, intrigued, closed his eyes, trying to zero in on this faint sensation when… Splat! A mouthful of silvery white blood sprayed out, startling the female doctor who hurriedly supported him with her long legs, Not only spitting blood, but the young man also vomited an undeveloped goat embryo from his mouth. “Oh… You are actually in such a diseased domain, don’t die now~ William.” Smack! The young man crushed the fetus in his hand, showing no fear of the consequences this act might represent. He slowly raised his right arm, aiming in the direction where the sensation was coming from… And he made a forceful pulling gesture. In an instant, Over the Jose Valley where Shebolt Village was located, the moon hanging above the clouds seemed to be pulled closer, even shining through the clouds with a faint moonlight. … [High Wall Base] Yi Chen’s strike left only a Moon Seal and failed to break the defense. This left his body suspended in midair, in a vulnerable, undefended state, and the Village Chief naturally would not miss such an opportunity. A massive arm swung from the side, even faster than before, hitting him hard on the side. [Receiving Body] Smack! The strike visibly blasted a wave of air explosion in the air. Yi Chen’s body, like a pile of loose rotten flesh, was slammed directly towards the edge of a deep pit, breaking some thick roots and sinking entirely into them. “So weak… Was my caution unnecessary?” The Village Chief did not hesitate, stepping heavily, moving towards the area where Yi Chen lay trapped among the roots. Suddenly, a series of rats’ squeaking sounds echoed near his ear, and an itching sensation came from his neck. The neck previously hit by the axe blade unexpectedly started producing Moonlight Rats, which were furiously gnawing at his skin!
