Chapter 180: Chapter 174 The Carnival Begins

"Hello, I’m Hua Yuan."

"I didn’t expect Isabella to have such good taste. I’m almost envious of her."

"Tonight, we will sleep next to you and see whether you will still have nightmares."

"Mr. Di, do you have a habit of flicking your tongue?"

...

"Luo Di, Hua Yuan is currently the most dangerous member of the Sisterhood’s core, and it’s hard to find anyone from the past decades who could match her.

She is very dangerous, you must be careful."

All sorts of past conversations related to "Hua Yuan" surfaced in his mind,

making the memories of Hua Yuan incredibly deep,

and he even started to reject the constant influx of mental impurities. His entire brain was occupied by memories related to Hua Yuan.

What were originally static memories turned gradually into dynamic ones, and they were becoming more and more realistic.

Suddenly, the Hua Yuan in the memories reached out her hand,

as if breaking through the dimensional barrier, she clutched at Luo Di’s first-person perspective from the inside, seemingly twisting his mouth, trying to drill out from the depths of his memory!

"Open your mouth... oh~"

It was like an irresistible command.

Luo Di’s mouth was forced open to its limit, and even the corners of his mouth were slightly torn, nearly dislocating his jaw.

Following that,

a slimy, slender arm emerged from Luo Di’s mouth,

then another followed,

as if it was some kind of ultimate Bone Shrinking Skill, or as if using Luo Di’s flesh and blood to temporarily construct a body.

Ultimately,

a smooth and moist young girl landed on the ground, still wearing a uniform, the whole process was beyond the normal limits.

With the girl’s arrival, some kind of invisible Spiritual Body outline wrapped around her body, destroying all the approaching tentacles.

When the statue of the Mountain God at the end of the hall attempted further action,

Hua Yuan snapped her fingers!

Pop!

The statue’s body shattered completely, the debris mixed with disgusting, hairy, rotten flesh.

Only the head of the statue, still affixed to its dried up Skin, remained intact and rested steadily on the stone pedestal.

Hua Yuan seemed to have figured something out and did not directly destroy that most important head.

"Mr. Di, are you alright? If you’re okay, come with me to verify something."

As Hua Yuan spoke, she immediately smelled a pleasant lard scent.

Turning her head, she saw the shrimp fried rice young man who previously suited her aesthetic. Yet, he now wore a pig head mask, and even his lean body was covered with a layer of fat.

"Eh, Mr. Di, your cosplay fetish is a bit tough to maintain."

"This is good though; this pig head can strengthen your physique somewhat and replenish the energy you just lost.

If you can still walk, come with me. Let’s see what exactly this thing is, what kind of creature it is, and if we can use it to pinpoint the location of our Warrant target."

Hua Yuan’s pupils had turned red, and that invisible entity beside her transformed into some kind of barrier in front of her.

The two slowly made their way to the end of the corridor, in front of the remaining god’s head.

Bang—Hua Yuan snapped her fingers once again,

tearing off the dried skin on the god’s head, through this process even horribly thick meat strings could be seen tugging, as if it was truly the skin of the statue.

The god’s head that appeared to be made of stone,

actually had real flesh on its face.

As the skin fell to the ground, a face like a lotus pod was revealed, with minute, colorful tentacles contracting and expanding in each lotus eye.

While expecting a more intense mental impact, Hua Yuan was ready to destroy the god’s head at any moment.

Yet, only a slight visual contamination occurred, and no mental assaults followed the tearing of the skin, making it seem like everything turned safe suddenly.

Just when Hua Yuan was about to investigate further,

Colorful tentacles all retracted back inside the head of the deity.

Following that, a resonance-like overlapping sound emanated from deep within the skull, sounding gender-neutral and indeterminate.

≮Achieving this degree shows that you indeed possess the standard to accept the "Corner Warrant", not merely low-tier Pseudo-Persons who accidentally breached the island.

I have spent a whole[three months], borrowing islands outside the Corner to validate my theories, yet despite my secrecy, I was exposed.

The inspection of the Corner is indeed airtight, capturing even the slightest fluctuations.

It doesn’t matter much, as I have achieved certain results.

Since the "Corner Warrant" has been issued, my escape holds no meaning. Rather than being constantly chased and killed, I prefer to join you in a major game.

Considering your courage to take on the warrant and your ability to come into contact with an important deity statue I hid among the islands, I will give you a good opportunity, an unprecedented chance for growth.

You could witness the results of my three months, and there’s a high chance of finding and killing my physical body.

Rest assured, my physical body is on this island, it will not leave, nor will it hide under the seawater.

To motivate your active participation in this game of[finding me]and experiencing my experimental achievements, there will be a time limit.

If my physical body isn’t found within 24 hours, I will transform you without mercy.

If you find me, then you will have the opportunity to kill me.

Just a reminder.

The entire island has been activated; the threats you’ll face are not just my physical form but also the interesting creations I personally forged, entities independent from the Corner and written into the story as sinister beings.

I hope this team stays intact before meeting my true form—try not to be extensively dismembered or reduced in numbers.

Otherwise, it will be tough to kill me, and all your efforts will end ultimately.

That’s all I have to say!

The countdown has started,

Go feel, savor, and immerse yourself in the grand gift I’ve set for you—the largest holiday event ever on Saiwei Vacation Island, the final carnival has begun indeed.≯

With the speech concluded,

The colorful tentacles inside the deity’s head burst forth to their fullest extent, as if cheering and screaming in the air, brimming with excitement!

Pop!

The entire skull suddenly exploded,

The burst of colorful rotten debris smeared all over the cave’s walls, but only Hua Yuan and the man standing behind her, with a pig head, remained unsoiled—some invisible force had blocked all the debris.

Hua Yuan, looking at the scattered debris on the ground, revealed a rare smile,

"Things have become interesting, which is good―at least not entirely hidden, and it didn’t flee the island because of our arrival and the issuance of the warrant.

These 24 hours are a bit short though.

It seems we need to hurry up, shall we go, Mr. Di?"

Hua Yuan’s red pupils turned towards the man behind her, planning to leave the cave at maximum speed.

Luo Di, who should have followed, moved very slowly, seemingly having truly become a pig.

Watching Luo Di’s slow movements, even needing to lean on the wall to move, Hua Yuan not only did not get angry but voluntarily stepped forward.

"Mr. Di, hurry and get that pig head off! It looks disgustingly nauseating, I don’t want to support a fat pig."

With the pig head removed, Luo Di also reverted to his original form.

However, a foul odor of lard lingered on him, making him appear quite weak.

Hua Yuan immediately explained:

"This is a normal phenomenon—The male individuals I target, once triggered by[Thought], and I agree to proceed with the main transfer.

It will consume the flesh and nourishment of the thought provider to reconstruct my new body, and I will emerge from their body.

Ordinary people can’t endure it; once I crawl out from within their minds, they will be completely drained, leaving only an empty Skin.

Mr. Di is certainly exceptional; even so, he was able to hang on for a while. Your body is truly different, seemingly hiding some secret.

However, the body sculpted from your thoughts seems slightly different from my original. Why does your calf have an extra layer of muscle, and why has the leg shape become better suited for running?

Could it be that you weren’t focusing on me, but also thought of other women? Strange, you should only think of me, it’s a rare case."

Hua Yuan looked down at her legs, now with defined muscular contours and longer suited for running, always feeling she had seen them somewhere before.

No matter, this running structure is suitable for the actions ahead.

Hua Yuan was patient in supporting Luo Di, even taking out high-calorie food and mineral water from her backpack, feeding him personally.
