Chapter 37: Take a Blow from Me, Old Pig
"Little Yi, can you turn into a crowbar?"
"Find a chance to pry that golden mask off her face, how about it?"
Wu Hen earnestly discussed with his right hand.
Little Yi suggested skipping the hassle, turning around, and letting her parasite the entire city. Then, it would just launch a nuclear-guided Death Sword to send all the parasites straight to their great-grandmothers!
"Aren't you supposed to be a master?" Wu Hen was puzzled.
Little Yi swayed its ghostly tail, proudly declaring.
With the Golden-eyed Parasitic Mother's protein alone, it wasn't even enough to replenish the energy of one sword swing—no way it would engage in a losing deal!
"Oh, okay, brother, heart to heart, and now you're playing mind games with me!"
"Crowbar!"
"I don't care if you've never turned into a crowbar, you better transform, or forget about getting any treats in the future!"
Wu Hen was both embarrassed and angry.
At such a critical moment, Little Yi was still stuck brainstorming, when clearly it had bragged so much before!
Little Yi felt helpless.
Facing the host's tantrum, it had no choice but to attempt to morph the Qilin Thorn in Wu Hen's right hand into a long handle, ending with several hooks.
"You, you, you... do you think I'm Zhu Bajie? What's with the Nine-toothed Nail Rake?" Wu Hen complained.
"Fine, fine, Nine-toothed Nail Rake it is!"
Wu Hen secretly vowed to make Little Yi try every tool in the apocalypse toolbox; in the future, whether he needed a drill, hammer, chainsaw, blender, hairdryer, or curling iron, Little Yi would have to transform into them.
The Order Maintenance Army's bullets helped significantly.
Even the Fire Shadow girl, Yu Yu, stood angrily on a building, using her pink Compound Bow to deliver critical hits to the Half-human Yang Qin.
Although Yu Yu appeared timid, when monsters threatened her brother, a certain gene in her body would awaken. Shot after shot, she targeted Yang Qin's soft tissue connections, posing a threat comparable to armor-piercing sniper bullets.
The face of the Half-human Yang Qin began to twist, and her golden mask took on a malevolent, hideous appearance.
"Once I deal with Wu Hen, I'm going to boil you all into a pot of bone soup!" the Half-human Yang Qin declared.
With everyone helping Wu Hen enhance his firepower, he finally got a chance to approach the Half-human Yang Qin.
Most of the dozen claws had been destroyed, but Wu Hen still couldn't get near Yang Qin's main body due to these fierce centipede claws.
"Can you find a chance to nail down his Willow Blade?" Wu Hen signaled to Yu Yu.
Wu Hen believed the golden mask was the parasite's main body, but trying to pry it off would likely get him sliced into pieces by the Willow Blade.
The Qilin Armor was sturdy, but it couldn't withstand the lethal Willow Blade of the Golden-eyed Half-human.
On the building, Yu Yu saw the message from her brother and focused on the immobilized centipede-woman, Yang Qin…
Her Willow Blade had turned into a soft blade, swaying like a sleeve; bullets hitting it were absorbed like jelly.
Clearly, the Centipede Woman Yang Qin was stalling, waiting for new claws to grow.
Yu Yu knew that if this continued, the Centipede Woman Yang Qin would regain full combat strength. She immediately signaled to the female Order Maintainer beside her, directing all personnel to focus their fire on one spot!
The female Order Maintainer quickly understood and issued the order to concentrate fire on Yang Qin's abdomen!
The Order Maintainers had accurate aim. All the red dots locked onto the immobilized Centipede Woman Yang Qin's abdomen.
"Bang bang bang bang!!!!!!"
Bullets rained down on her abdomen, soon creating holes in her hard shell.
Yang Qin realized that repairing her abdomen would take considerable time, so she quickly moved her arm's Willow Blade downward, weaving it into a protective silk net over her abdomen!
The bullets were visibly slowed by this fungal willow silk net, losing their impact upon hitting Yang Qin.
Meanwhile, new limbs sprouted from Yang Qin's torso sides, quickly growing and twisting into strong claws!
"Whizz!"
"Whizz!"
"Whizz!"
Three arrows in succession, all specially made, shot out with precise accuracy from the building's height!
Each arrow pinned down Yang Qin's special Willow Blade.
Because of its soft, gelatinous nature, the Compound Bow not only pierced through but also pinned the Willow Blade to her abdomen!!
Yang Qin instinctively tried to pull out her "Willow Blade arm" but found that the arrows' fletching had barbs, like giant tacks, specifically designed to handle such morphing creatures!
Due to its soft form, she couldn't use brute force to pull her arm out from the arrows. For a moment, Yang Qin found herself immobilized, her arm bound!
"With such petty tricks, you think you can conquer all humanity?"
"Try my rake, pig!"
Suddenly, Wu Hen appeared before her!
Yang Qin was shocked and tried to attack Wu Hen with her newly grown claws, but they weren't fully formed and couldn't stop the fierce Wu Hen!
Wu Hen leaped into the air, wielding a shining silver Nine-toothed Nail Rake!
This weapon raked across Yang Qin's face, its nine teeth digging between the golden silk mask and her skin, quickly drawing bright red blood from her cheek!
The golden silk mask was incredibly tough, seemingly fused to Yang Qin's face.
Wu Hen used all his strength and felt the mask loosen slightly!
"Get off for me!"
A lightning pattern appeared on Wu Hen's arm, unleashing a surge of greater power!
The golden mask started peeling from Yang Qin's forehead, revealing a myriad of fungal filaments adhering like muscle fibers and blood vessels, squirming like a mass of living worm-like creatures!
Seeing this, Wu Hen became even more convinced that the golden silk mask was a Golden Fungus Insect!
He even stomped on Centipede Woman Yang Qin's chest with his legs, pushing her in the opposite direction while concentrating his strength on his arms to rip off the golden mask!!
"Little Yi, release Electric Thunder!"
Wu Hen commanded.
Electric Thunder quickly surged from Wu Hen's body to his arm, flowing into the entire nine-foot nail rake!
The powerful electric current infiltrated between the mask and skin, instantly paralyzing the face worms intertwined like locks!
Finally, Yang Qin's face revealed her original eye sockets and nose bridge, now covered in blood. It was the same as slicing off her entire face.
With lightning-powered arms.
Gripping the silver rake.
Wu Hen's figure tearing off the golden mask looked like Divine Monarch Tianpeng!
Though initially unexpected, Wu Hen had indeed left an indelible godly impression on all the school's teachers and students!
"Riiiiip~~~~"
At last, the whole golden mask of human skin was ripped off Yang Qin's face, clinging to much of her flesh.
Incredibly, the golden silk mask, once it fell to the ground, grew legs like an octopus scuttling on land, desperately seeking a crack to hide!
This golden silk worm clearly knew that a stronger power resided in Wu Hen's body and jumping on his face would be useless.
So, the golden silk worm sped towards Yu Yu on the building!
As the golden mask worm scurried across the playground, the thought of becoming a human centipede horrified the entire school, causing everyone to scream and rush into classrooms.
Yu Yu saw it too. She raised her pink Compound Bow and shot several arrows at the rapidly moving golden silk worm, attempting to pin it to the playground.
But the golden silk worm was agile and dodged the high-speed arrows!
"Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!!"
Ten arrows in succession, all embedded in the ground, but the golden silk worm got closer, rapidly climbing the building's drain pipe.
Within moments, it reached the third floor; Yu Yu still showed no intention of fleeing. She took a deep breath, using her sense of smell to lock onto the disgusting worm's position!
Suddenly, the golden silk worm leaped, spreading its fungal filaments, aiming at Yu Yu's lovely face!
Yu Yu's eyes flashed as she faced the terrifying golden silk worm!
"Buzz~~~"
Her slender arms stretched perfectly; her delicate fingers released the string!
An arrow shot out sharply, perfectly anticipating the golden silk worm's mid-air trajectory…
However, the golden silk worm bizarrely split its body, forming an opening right in its middle!
The arrow flew through the gap.
This sight left the previously calm girl completely shaken, her eyes filled with astonishment and fear!
Instinctively, she covered her face with her hands, trying to keep the horrid creature from latching onto her…
She tightly closed her eyes.
Yu Yu's delicate form trembled.
"Hiss~~~"
Suddenly, a strange sound echoed…
Yu Yu realized she hadn't been attacked. She mustered the courage to open her eyes and witnessed an incredible sight.
A black phantom-like figure, like a sinister Witch Dragon, shot across from the playground, precisely biting the dreadful golden silk mask worm!!
No matter how the golden mask worm twisted and transformed, the phantom dragon firmly held it, like a Divine Sparrow catching a worm…
"Swish~"
The phantom dragon streaked like lightning, capturing the golden silk worm and swiftly returning to its master.
Yu Yu instinctively looked to the distance, seeing a man in a jacket standing on the playground; the graceful phantom dragon retracted into his right hand, swimming back into his body!
Her eyes, pure as mountain snow, melted instantly, tears of joy streaming down.
Wu Hen stood on the playground, comforting his frightened sister from afar with a heart gesture.
"No worries, your brother's here!"
This gesture set hearts fluttering across the campus, melting countless female students and teachers, even the dorm warden felt rejuvenated!
So cool!!
"Wu Hen, I want to have your baby!" Someone, a male student with a voice like Lu Zhishen, shouted desperately.
Wu Hen stood on the playground, thoughts racing.
Having a baby, wasn't that too extreme? Moreover, it came from a boy with Lu Zhishen's voice!
Sigh!
