Chapter 1161: Chapter 1161: Words Are Far Less Persuasive than Personal Experience

This man did not lose consciousness. His eyes were fixed on the potion in Xu Huo’s hand, until the red liquid inside was completely injected into his arm.

It seemed that people who began their evolution through this method had particularly quick reactions. Within mere seconds, his heart started racing, and his breathing grew heavy while his gaze took on a bizarre quality.

This made everyone present instinctively step backward—before, they had only seen Evolvers in videos and had never faced one who had lost all rationality to the torment of hunger in person.

The feeling was no different from a zombie, seen only on TV before, suddenly appearing right in front of them!

Xu Huo shoved the man to the wall, temporarily imprisoning him without curbing his actions. Inside the transparent "small single room" formed by the Spatial Barrier, everything happening inside was clearly visible to those outside.

Watching the man flail wildly in the confined space, the Buzz Cut man and his two companions all shifted positions, their gaze struggling to stay fixed.

"Who’s going first in the second round?" Xu Huo turned again to Elder Wan and the other three, reminding them, "Rolling the dice gives you a chance to survive. Don’t bother trying to stall for time—if someone actually shows up here before you choose, I’ll personally deal with the ones who haven’t decided yet."

Pointing to the dice on the coffee table, his gaze, laden with tremendous pressure, fell onto the group of four. "We’ll start based on your current positions."

The one standing in front had no choice but to step forward. He fiddled with the dice in his hand several times before finally making up his mind. Perhaps his nerves had betrayed him, because his hand trembled as he threw, yielding a "6."

This made the remaining three breathe a sigh of relief—but to everyone’s surprise, the third person, excluding Elder Wan and the man with the long face, also rolled a "6."

"Impossible!" he blurted out.

"Two sixes. Roll again, you two," Xu Huo said.

The one who rolled the second "6" picked up the dice first and threw a "3."

The one who rolled the first "6" was next, perhaps incredibly unlucky this time, rolling a "5."

"No! This isn’t right!" Unable to contain his fury, this man exploded in anger. "Someone must’ve tampered with the dice! Otherwise, how could I roll large numbers twice? When I used to gamble, I could get whatever number I wanted!"

But Xu Huo had no patience for his "analysis." Grabbing him directly, he administered an injection without hesitation, then sent him rolling off to join the first Evolver by the wall.

"You’re putting them together?" Buzz Cut man stared in shock at the two individuals squaring off inside the "small single room."

"What’s wrong with that?" Xu Huo shot him a cold glance.

The third round began. This time, the potion was injected into the man who had just rolled twice.

And in the end, only the long-faced man and Elder Wan remained.

Xu Huo briefly glanced at the movement outside and threw out a dice himself. "Let’s do both of you at once."

The long-faced man exchanged a look with Elder Wan, seemingly realizing something. Both slowed their movements, clutching their dice repeatedly but could not find an angle they were satisfied with.

Xu Huo watched their performance for a while. Placing one leg down, he stood in front of them in the next second, holding a potion in each hand and plunged them directly into their necks!

Both men were utterly shocked, but the long-faced man, being younger, reacted swiftly. He opened the potion, covered his neck, retreated and questioned Xu Huo, "How could you break your word!"

Xu Huo glanced at him with a smirk that didn’t quite reach his eyes.

The long-faced man gritted his teeth. "I knew better than to trust people like you..."

Before he finished speaking, Elder Wan—already displaying signs of evolution—suddenly lunged at him, sinking his teeth into his neck!

Thanks to the hand still covering his neck, the bite didn’t sever his blood vessels. But the sheer force of it made his face contort with terror. Screaming, he kicked Elder Wan away, scrambling toward Buzz Cut man and his companions to plead for help.

Unfortunately, they had already been isolated by Xu Huo. With the Spatial Barrier separating them, Buzz Cut man and his companions could only watch helplessly, leaving the long-faced man no way out.

The room burst into chaos. Five Evolvers—both the first and Elder Wan had completely lost their minds, drowning in their insatiable hunger. Meanwhile, the remaining three barely managed to hold on to their sanity, desperately dodging and pleading for help.

But madmen were far harder to deal with than ordinary people. In no time, the three began to sport bite marks on their bodies. And as the crazed two tasted blood, they only grew more feral. Every moveable object in the room was smashed to pieces. Oblivious to pain, they kept tearing through their injuries, their bodies covered in wounds, and with the long-faced trio’s feeble counterattacks, fresh blood gradually painted the room’s surfaces.

Three terrified individuals teetering on the brink of tears. Two deranged ones reduced to incomprehensible urges to devour. It was impossible to recognize any trace of the ten minutes prior where people had bantered lightly. At this point, living as an ordinary person—or even retaining some semblance of normalcy—was an extreme improbability.

Listening to the room’s cacophony of screams, curses, and pleas, Xu Huo tilted his head slightly upward, closed his eyes, and chuckled softly. "As I thought, words are far less convincing than firsthand experience."

Buzz Cut man and his companions, witnessing the pitiful state of their former allies, lapsed into eerie silence. The one standing furthest back secretly began recording a video on his phone.

Xu Huo did not stop him. Sitting still for several seconds, he finally stood and addressed the trio, "Deliver a message to the government and the Special Defense Department for me. Make them remember what happened here today."

With that, he vanished into thin air. Almost simultaneously, government Players finally stormed into the room, only to stare aghast at the carnage inside...

Alarms blared as Players outside flooded into the building. Moving against the tide, Xu Huo passed through them without haste, walking out of the safehouse as if nothing had happened.

This was only the beginning.

Over the next two days, Xu Huo hitched rides with government or Special Defense Department convoys to eight key cities and a total of twelve safehouses. Across those locations, he used twenty-seven Evolution Potions and killed nineteen people.

The forty-six individuals involved were largely those listed by Nie Xuan, participants whom the Special Defense Department had limited authority over or the government might not prioritize dealing with.

Of course, this wasn’t everyone. But as word spread over those two days, the ones still on the list wised up—they stopped trusting government-established safehouses and refused to gather, deliberately cutting off communication from official channels and retreating to private hideouts.

Once dispersed, locating them became far trickier. Xu Huo had no means to clone himself nor the time or energy to scour for them. And by mid-morning on the third day, the Magician returned.

Xu Huo was in the middle of dealing with a few professors on the list. Just as he picked up a potion, he spotted a man wearing a Moth Mask twenty meters away and remarked, "I’m genuinely swamped. If you don’t mind, maybe wait a few more days."
