Deep in the Living

Chapter 281 Gray Moon
seven days ago.

Rody was arrested for the lunar eclipse incident and was temporarily detained in the individual containment cell of the General Investigation Bureau while awaiting the verdict.

This was a special room filled with flexible materials, and even if Rody used all his strength, he couldn't cut even a crack. Of course, he had no intention of escaping.

This is a good opportunity to enjoy a moment of peace.
It would take him a long time to digest this large-scale massacre, and it was also his first massacre of non-fake people.

The pituitary gland, which had just reached half its saturation point, became completely saturated during the lunar eclipse. It even caused indigestion due to "eating too fast". The pituitary gland was slightly swollen and took a long time to reach the 100% saturation mark.

During the waiting period.

A yellow talisman floated out from the airtight containment room.

The yellow talisman began to fold in the air, actually forming the structure of a paper man.

Golden light flashed,

The paper figure took on the appearance of Yu Ze.

There was no greeting like in the past, nor any gesture of reaching out to touch.
Yu Ze simply took out a special piece of yellow paper from his pocket, took out tobacco from another pocket, rolled it into a special cigarette and handed it over.

"Yu Ze brand sobering cigarettes are good for the pituitary gland's absorption and can also make your brain a little clearer. Don't worry, it won't produce any extra smoke and won't trigger the alarm here."

As Luo Di took the cigarette, Yu Ze's index finger also ignited a flame to help him light it.

Yu Ze did not make any comments on the lunar eclipse, but only talked about Luo Di's current situation.

"My friend, once you finish this cigarette, your pituitary gland should be able to complete digestion within half an hour. Once mature and full, the pituitary gland will "fully integrate" you.

The pituitary gland's feeding process from 0 to 100% is essentially gradually adapting to your body, your fighting style, and your living habits.

Whether it is the abilities you gain through connecting with the world, your own interests and hobbies, and especially your experiences in Moon City, they will all be integrated by the pituitary gland.

This is the characteristic of the corner system.

Fear will rule everything... Even in the world I connect to, my master is afraid of the essence of the corner.

You must use it well, after all, your pituitary gland is quite special, and this trip to Moon City is also extraordinary. In this way, you should become very strong, not only can you meet the standards of the Special Operations Department, but you will also get special attention from the World Bureau.

The process of exploring corners will also be advanced.”

"Ok."

Seeing Luo Di's response, Yu Ze felt relieved.

Although he can calculate cause and effect, he cannot calculate human nature.

Rody's response now shows that he has not indulged in pure killing and still remains firm in his original intention.

“Well done, fellow.

The fundamental purpose of headquarters arranging you to go to Moon City is to eradicate the malignancy, but we didn't expect you to be so decisive... The subsequent trial is just a formality. You can tell us in advance if you have any requirements.

In short, you don’t need to worry about external problems.

You just need to take care of yourself, that's all, I'm leaving now."

"Thank you."

Rody had already replayed the lunar eclipse in his mind.
He thought a lot about the main reason why the Venerable could not leave Moon City.
After his speculation, there was only one possible reason for the closure of the railway station, and that was Yu Ze, and it could only be Yu Ze.

"Thank you for nothing, I should thank you, my fellow countryman... The mess in Moon City is almost completely ruined, and it's all thanks to you, my fellow countryman, that we were able to solve it.

Bye, if you need anything, just knock on the door anytime. "

In the blink of an eye, Yu Ze turned into a paper man and quickly combusted and disappeared.

As for Rody, he quickly got into the mood after smoking the special cigarette in his hand.

The effect of tobacco quickly calmed his brain and cleared out the food accumulation in his pituitary gland.

This time there was no need for sleep.

Rody's consciousness was forcibly pulled into the "pituitary space".
Inside the giant pituitary gland,
Tentacle-like nerves are inserted into various parts of the body to begin the so-called "comprehensive integration".

The pituitary gland, representing the corner system, is deeply integrated with the spinal column, the hell system.

【Open spine】

Without any subjective will, the spine actually stretched out on its own and rotated like a chainsaw.

[Mask]

Corner's first characteristic ability is also automatically activated, and 80% of the tentacles are condensed on the face.

The two are linked,
The remaining gray tentacles (20%) in Rody's body also imitated the chainsaw of the spine.
Serration structures grew on the surface of these tentacles and they began to rotate.

Some of the tentacles are even gradually hardening, and have the same lethality as a chainsaw.

Moreover, these tentacles can move under Roddy's control and even attach to external objects... For example, they can make the surface of a butcher knife grow rotatable hardened teeth.

When the pituitary gland is almost aligned with the surface of the spine,
When Luo Di thought that the so-called integration was about to end,
A deep integration at the thinking level has just begun.

The pituitary gland needs to review all of Rody's memories, especially the memories after obtaining the pituitary gland. It seems that it wants to understand Rody and know his nature. Although Rody does not know what effect this will have, he can feel a certain change in artistic conception.

Looking back on life,

It seems that every important node happens at night.

Whether it's coming home from school,
Or encountering demons in simulated practice,
Or it was the first time the squad leader stayed at his home.

Or the Fourth Central Incident,

Or the final battle on a holiday island,
And the lunar eclipse caused by Rody,

Everything is at night,
Everything is under the watchful eye of the moon.

All pituitary growth is done in Moon City, and late night operations are illuminated by moonlight.

finally,
This integration of memory stops at the scene where the balloon is flying and Rody is looking up at the sky.

Do not know why,

Rody saw a moon covered with festering tumors. His massacre was like a major surgery to remove all the tumors. Although the surface of the moon was full of holes and wounds after the surgery, it exuded a charming light.

hum!
By the time he came to his senses, the pituitary gland in his brain had already changed.

The pituitary gland, which was originally similar to that of a normal person, now faintly reveals the moonlight, and its surface is covered with craters of varying sizes.

Some craters are like holes.
It has tiny tentacles that can emerge from the inside.

Whispers came from the corner at the same time.

≮The pituitary gland has been integrated, the details are as follows≯
[Status]: Stage 1 (seed, saturated)*
The saturated pituitary seeds can germinate and enter the next stage only after heading to the corner.

【Integration】: Excellent*
*The integration of pituitary seeds has not been rejected in any way and has achieved a high degree of integration with the individual. The seeds have achieved perfect morphological expression and are waiting to germinate...

【Species name】：Gray Moon*
A rare name, a unique and rare plant system will grow in the future.

[Category & Relationship]: Cthulhu Mythos & Killer Black Gate

[Basic Effect]: Tentacle Control (Low Level)

【prompt】:
Please go to the corner as soon as possible. Only the essence of fear that exists in the corner can serve as nutrients for the mature seeds, nourishing their rooting and sprouting, allowing the individual to move to a deeper level of fear.

……

Hotel lobby.

The white-haired girl was lying on the counter and vomiting wildly, with a large amount of rat-related filth coming out of her mouth.

The vomiting is over.

She immediately turned around and looked behind her, at the gray-haired young man sitting in the corner with his eyes closed, and the head of the wanted criminal in his hand.

"You... were able to kill Scylla.

This guy is not only good at tricks and deception, but also good at escaping. He can escape even from fatal injuries. You actually used some weird cutting to crush his soul essence.

His head is an important proof of reward, so keep it safe."

Rody was trying his best to recover and regulate his breathing. He had wanted to save his trump card for the truly dangerous decisive battle on the battlefield, but he didn't expect to use it so early in this place.

The situation was indeed dangerous.

If there had been even a slight hesitation and the mouse had escaped back into the mire, it would have been difficult to kill it, and both of them would have been eaten up.

"Is there anything special about this person?"

"Scylla" is a member exiled by the evil play. With his ability to deceive, he opened hotels in various areas of the real hell and killed the guests to build his gate to ascend to the devil.

Wanted for a large number of killings that violate the rules of Hell.

Due to being exposed some time ago, they were forced to evacuate their original base and come to this Pain Plain where people would not normally track them down.

I was ordered by the monastery to come and clean up this rat, but who knew the intelligence they gave me was wrong, and this guy was already on the eve of ascending to a demon... I almost got caught."

"the wanted?
Okay, we'll split the bounty in half... Without your final penetration, pain release, and fixation, I wouldn't have such a good angle to kill."

Rody's words made the white-haired girl tilt her head with a look of surprise.

"The Spinemen are all eager to pursue military exploits and want to grab every bit of benefit. You actually want to share with me? And where did you get the Torture Chamber ability?"

"I am currently an envoy of the Chaos Hive City. I am also acquainted with Mr. Hawke. The first stop of this trip is the torture chamber."

"You really do know Lord Hawke!"

"Ah."

Killing the wanted criminal only made the girl's attitude become neutral. After Roddy revealed his acquaintance with Hawke, the girl's attitude directly turned into friendly.

"Let's go back together when the storm stops!"
