Chapter 115: Chapter 109: Lost
Although the Isabella that was split in half is just a flesh avatar,
the main consciousness of "Isabella" is controlling this avatar, having experienced everything firsthand, enduring the process of being slain and butchered.
This overwhelming slaughter, the slaughter against which she could not resist,
evoked a deep-seated emotion from within her psyche, a primal emotion that hadn’t been felt in a long time.
[Fear]
At the moment of being butchered, she actually felt some fear towards this young man, who could no longer be called a youth, but a human-shaped demon.
The spine protruding,
the eyes covered in black,
steam dissipating,
in this state, Luo Di was not at all the same as when he first entered the institution; every physical index had been greatly enhanced.
The primary consciousness of Isabella had already returned to the mother body, which was currently undergoing a new gestation.
"Damn it~I shouldn’t have allowed this guy to come to the nursing home, shouldn’t have been careless just because of Wu Wen’s scent... It’s all that woman’s fault, though it’s a pity she died during the screening. If I could see her again, I’d definitely tear her apart with my own hands.
I can’t think about holding back anymore, to kill this guy I must pay a certain price, it doesn’t matter if I have to delay the interstice screening time."
Isabella made a decision, she was willing to use the essence stored in the mother body to kill the invader before her.
The abdomen of the mother body showed several distinct bulges,
once again going through childbirth,
and this time it was a multiple birth,
it was clear that the flesh construction of the current room was flowing into the mother body, as she needed to absorb external nutrients to complete this multi-birth.
Whoosh!
A large amount of amniotic fluid poured out from an opening in the abdomen,
three small and agile neonates crawled out from the navel hole, cutting off the umbilical cords, scattering to different positions on the ceiling.
Seemingly "three sisters," but in fact all controlled by Isabella’s main consciousness.
None of the three sisters stood taller than 1.6m, their figures being as slender and light as stick insects, able to move quickly and agilely on the walls.
On the palms of their hands, they each possessed a type of hollow suction cup structure,
not only allowing them to adhere to the walls but seeming to be able to shoot something from within for long-distance attacks.
Having been executed just now, Isabella had completely given up the intention of a frontal confrontation.
She deliberately created these speed-type multiple avatars to disrupt and contain Luo Di down below.
Of course,
Isabella had more to show than just that,
Ahh!!!
A huge wailing sound came from the mother body,
containers of flesh materials stored in the nursing home warehouse were transported over, flowing into the interior of the mother body, a terrifying transformation was about to occur.
The flesh walls of the current room began to writhe,
Click! A clicking tongue sound.
At this moment, Luo Di’s tongue also tasted a strong whiff of danger.
Even without witnessing any direct threat, his body immediately shifted positions, rolling forward quickly.
Snap!
A giant flesh hand that grew out of the wall slapped heavily onto where Luo Di had just been, imprinting an exaggerated palm depression on the ground.
The arm, equipped with specifications that were paired to the mother body embedded in the ceiling, was akin to the giant limbs out of a fairy tale.
Compared to the swift-moving three sisters, this huge Blood Hand was the real threat.
Even with the enhancements from Hell, it still would be difficult to overcome such a disparity in magnitude.
Huff~Puff~
Yellowish breath spilled out of the Jaw Splitter,
the stooping body could clearly sense the wriggling from the spine, waves of Hell Energy were being transmitted throughout the body via the Spine, allowing Luo Di to be fully immersed in the killing, becoming a true Hell Murderer.
Facing the sweeping giant hand, Luo Di did not dodge but assumed a position and slashed out with his blade!
Snap!
A black silhouette flew out horizontally.
Boom! It heavily crashed into the edge of the wall, smashing a dent into the flesh wall, which luckily acted as a cushion due to its flesh composition, significantly reducing the impact damage.
Coupled with the protective effect of the investigator’s suit, the collision did not cause much harm.
Luo Di only coughed out a little blood; his internal organ structure was still stable,
his dark gaze fixed upon the center of the room, focusing on the four massive fingers he had cut off, each over a meter long.
In just a few seconds, the Blood Hand regrew the four fingers through a stack of flesh.
「Superfast Regeneration」
The flesh of the entire nursing home was supporting such regenerative actions.
Furthermore,
the three sisters on the ceiling had already aimed their palms at him,
Whoosh~ small bone projectiles the size of syringes shot out from their palms (roughly 9mm bullet size), whether propelled by internal air pressure or muscle ejection, the speed was almost equivalent to that of small firearms bullets.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Luo Di raised his left arm to block all of these,
The iron wire wrapped around his arm could block a large part of them, and even if they penetrated into his flesh, the high temperature would deactivate the aging drugs within the syringes.
At the same time the three sisters were shooting,
The giant Blood Hand also swiped down at the same time,
Boom!
The wall was left with a deep palm imprint, but no one was inside.
Luo Di had leapt into the air just a second before, barely dodging the strike.
The spine-induced danger response seemed to make him jump a bit too high, over four meters off the ground, and staying airborne that long wasn’t a good thing.
The Blood Hand below, having missed its initial target, had already changed direction and reached for him above.
Snap!
Unable to evade while hanging in the air, five fingers firmly clutched Luo Di in the palm, relentlessly applying force to try and crush him into a pulp.
However, from inside the palm, an extreme heat emanated, along with a high-intensity flesh that refused to compress easily.
Swoosh!
A dark ring-shaped slash appeared out of nowhere in mid-air.
All five of the huge fingers were severed, falling heavily to the ground.
Luo Di, shrouded in scalding steam, stood upon the center of the Blood Hand’s palm, staring intently at the Mother Body that was now even closer.
His choice to remain airborne for an extended period seemed to be a tactic to lure the Blood Hand into grabbing him, creating a mid-air platform for him to leap from.
His calves burst forth with all their power,
Sprinting forward over the surface of the Blood Hand,
Just as his foot stepped onto the edge of the hand, all the pent-up strength in his calves unleashed, propelling him into the air!
His target was the Mother Body hanging in the air; the Zombie Blade in his hand was already poised to slice open its belly.
What was strange,
Even as Luo Di drew near to the Mother Body, the three sisters clinging to the ceiling made no move to stop him, as if they were waiting for something.
Just as Luo Di was about to reach the significantly swollen abdomen of the Mother Body,
Buzz!
Another huge Blood Hand suddenly burst forth, blocking his way horizontally, completely separating Luo Di from the Mother Body.
Indeed, humans have two hands.
The one that had just attacked Luo Di was the ’right hand’,
While the one now blocking his way was the ’left hand’, dedicated to protecting the Mother Body, always encircling it.
Caught off guard, and without any means to dodge in the air.
Slap!
A hand smacked Luo Di squarely on the forehead.
His world spun, and his human-shaped body plummeted downwards, crashing into the flesh-floor below, creating a large crater,
Spurt!
Steamy blood sprayed from Luo Di’s mouth as he struggled to prop himself up with one hand, refusing to fall.
Had it not been for the Jaw Splitter’s protection, that slap could have likely shattered his skull.
"Too reckless...?"
Just as Luo Di suppressed the dizziness and was about to act again, he suddenly noticed something wrong with his right arm. Several bullet-like, bony syringes had penetrated the investigator’s suit and implanted themselves in his arm.
The entire right arm had aged severely, looking like that of a 70-year-old.
Thankfully, the presence of Hell’s Spine was there, constantly pumping special blood into the aging limb to counteract the aging effects; otherwise, it wouldn’t even support itself.
However,
Isabella would not give Luo Di any chance to catch his breath,
The offensive Blood Hand had already regrown its five fingers and was sweeping at him horizontally.
Luo Di attempted to jump on the spot, but due to his poor condition, the leap was awkward, failing to completely evade.
Snap!
The Blood Hand merely grazed Luo Di’s back, striking the backpack he was carrying.
The straps broke,
And the entire backpack was flung into the air,
Luo Di once again crashed to the ground, tumbling several times before barely coming to a stop.
Yet his focus was no longer on himself or the enemy,
Instead, his gaze fixed on the ascending backpack, growing further and further away, far beyond his reach.
Coincidentally,
The backpack thrown upward was nearing the Mother Body, directly above its head.
The gigantic Mother Body, considering the backpack from its enemy might contain boosting or healing potions, or Luo Di’s backup plans,
Swallowed it in one bite, storing it within the esophageal walls, depriving the enemy of any opportunity to turn the tables.
Watching the backpack disappear from sight, witnessing the Mother Body’s swallowing action,
Buzz!
An intense ringing echoed inside Luo Di’s head.
Unspeakable waves of emotion collided, pulled, and beat inside his brain!
The long-forgotten ’Hell Symbol*’ seemed to sense these intense emotions, these feelings of hatred and murder, and surfaced in his mind.
Luo Di’s dark pupils slowly revealed a small point, and his body on the ground started to bend sharply, highlighting his entire spine.
Even though it protruded outside, wrapped by the investigator’s suit, the spine seemed to be undergoing further transformation.
Swoosh!
The investigator’s suit appeared to be torn apart by something, revealing an unusual spine.
