Chapter 94

In the dark depths, a hundred meters away from the scene of the incident, Theodore, dressed in a black clerical robe, was silently observing everything. The villagers’ ambush was directly orchestrated by him.Seeing the villagers he had arranged being entirely eradicated, his expression remained unchanged. He was merely silently recording the abilities displayed by the two individuals. "The bishop’s intuition was correct. These two are entirely different from the humans who entered before. Let’s go deeper. You may become the key materials for the 'Incarnation.'" When the pig-headed butcher was killed and transformed into a special weapon, Theodore recorded the final piece of information and disappeared into the darkness. --- Sap, like raindrops, dripped from above, deliberately extinguishing the raging flames caused by the explosion. Before the ruins of a house, littered with severed limbs and debris, Jin had already attached the miniaturized pig-head weapon back to her waist, treating it as a tool for eliminating pathogenic patients during their mission. Yi Chen looked up at the source of the "rain," which came from the tree branches sealing the forest canopy. These branches reacted immediately to abnormal heat sources. Suddenly, Yi Chen seemed to sense something else. He quickly turned his head, his gaze sweeping toward a direction in the pitch-black forest. Curiously, Jin asked, "What is it? What are you looking at?" "I just felt a fleeting sense of being watched, as if someone was secretly observing us... or studying us." "Has it disappeared already? What a pity~ My pig-head weapon hasn’t even had its first bloodletting yet." "Yes, the sense of being watched lasted only a moment. Now I feel nothing. Jin, where’s the butcher’s brain? Let me extract some information from it." "Ah~ The brain is a crucial component. I’ve already integrated it into the weapon. If you consume it, this thing will be useless." "Fine. These artificially cultivated diseased villagers are like brains missing a large portion—only containing murky, fragmented memories. It feels like their memory regions are incomplete. Extracting information from their brains is like drinking watered-down fake liquor—completely unsatisfying." "Then let’s move on. Once we’ve exterminated all the diseased villagers in the village, the truth will naturally surface." Perhaps it was the long-awaited slaughter or the acquisition of a satisfying temporary weapon, but Jin, despite wearing a mask, exuded joy. She tapped her shoe tips rhythmically on the stone path, performing a cheerful folk dance. Yi Chen merely smiled faintly and followed her at a normal pace. Interestingly, despite having just experienced an intense battle, Yi Chen could still feel the warmth of splattered blood and the tingling numbness from the explosion's shockwaves. The fingers of his right hand, still gripping the axe, twitched slightly. His body, partly immersed in the thrill of the recent slaughter, felt stiff in its joints. However, as Jin’s rhythmic dance unfolded, Yi Chen’s tense mood gradually relaxed, and his stiff body quickly returned to normal. ‘This Jin... Partnering with her was the right choice. To survive in this world, one must adapt to such slaughter, maintain composure in any situation, and preserve the of a gentleman.’ "Jin, what are your attribute values?" As they hadn’t yet officially reached the village, Yi Chen, curious about Jin’s displayed strength and speed, couldn’t help but wonder about her attributes. "Come closer. Put your hand on my shoulder, and I’ll share them with you." "Alright." As Yi Chen extended his hand, Jin gracefully spun around to face him and placed her shoulder against his hand. A string of shared information immediately appeared in Yi Chen’s vision. Though not as detailed as a self-assessment, it contained everything he wanted to know. --- ≮ Class: Human Weapon Artisan ≯ ≮ Persona: Human ≯ ≮ Basic Attributes ≯ - Physique: 4 - Motorics: 6 - Intellect: 3 - Psyche: 5 - Luck: 4 ≮ Class Traits ≯ "Flesh Affinity (Passive)": Capable of self-healing by devouring the flesh and blood of mammals. The closer the source is to humans, the better the effect. The flesh and blood of human "diseased" individuals work best. Perfect Compatibility for Blood Transfusion and Organ Transplants Compatible with any blood type for transfusions and capable of accepting any healthy organ transplant without rejection. "Flesh Weapon (Active)": The individual can transform the flesh of mammals into weapons. - The weapon's strength directly correlates with the raw materials and the individual's "Perception" value. - The types of weapons available are indirectly related to the "Perception" value. ≮Pathogenic Characteristics≯ The pathogenic crystallization mastered is referred to as "Red Lotus," though detailed information is not disclosed publicly. --- Jin naturally values her privacy, hiding some particularly personal information. However, even with the disclosed details, her abilities are astonishing. Aside from her average intelligence, - All other attribute values are above average. - Most notably, her "Coordination" has reached the human limit, explaining her ability to perfectly control her body during violent explosions, land precisely, and achieve extraordinary speed in combat. seaʀᴄh thё Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Her "Perception" is also at an extraordinary level. Perception signifies Jin's mental versatility, enabling her to create a variety of flesh-based products. This allows for highly flexible, diverse, and devastating attack methods. Clearly, like Yi Chen, her goal is to reach 'multi-attribute extremes.' It’s worth noting that Jin’s professional characteristics do not provide attribute bonuses or assist growth—unlike Yi Chen’s central role. This means all her current attributes are achieved purely through personal effort and training. As Yi Chen was about to ask more questions: A shadow suddenly darted through the forest beside them. Its speed was incredibly fast but was still caught by Little Grape, revealing a small silhouette resembling a small animal. When Yi Chen received the transmitted image, he immediately identified the creature as a "chicken." Just as Yi Chen prepared to pursue it, Jin had already taken off at lightning speed. "So fast!" Yi Chen, who prided himself on his own speed—ranking among the top in his previous team—found Jin's speed utterly terrifying. He could even faintly hear faint explosive sounds from her calves as she accelerated, quickly widening the gap between them. "Jin, wait!" As Yi Chen tried to call out to Jin to prevent them from getting too separated, she suddenly stopped. She had firmly caught the fast-moving, chicken-like creature in her hands. Under the dim light of a kerosene lamp, the creature was revealed: black feathers, a red comb—it was indeed a chicken. Its comb, shape, and feathers appeared completely normal, showing no signs of pathogenic mutation. However, in such a deeply gray and sealed-off area, Jin wasn’t about to overlook any creature. Besides, with chickens being oviparous creatures, they weren’t of much use to her. She prepared to crush it immediately. Just as she was about to apply force, The chicken’s beak suddenly opened, and it spoke in an oddly comical human voice: “Don’t kill me… I was just trying to lead you to Granny! You mustn’t enter the village. Otherwise, you’ll end up like those people—captured by the village chief and his subordinates and taken to the church!” Jin wasn’t interested in the information but was intrigued by the fact that the chicken could talk. “Infected after all?” Jin showed no intention of stopping and was about to crush it when: A plant vine suddenly shot out from behind, wrapping around her arm and stopping her. “Spare… the chicken!” “Hey! Are you opposing me now?” Jin, uncharacteristically, leaned her body back and twisted her head around at Yi Chen. Though her face was hidden behind a mask, a hint of killing intent could be felt. Yi Chen stood firm, keeping the plant vine wrapped around her. “Let the chicken speak a little more.” The two stared at each other for a full minute before Jin suddenly released the chicken, allowing Yi Chen to take it away. “You’re quite stubborn for a man~ If this were someone from Zion, they’d have chickened out long ago. Go ahead and ask… If there’s nothing interesting, I’m still tearing it apart.”
