Deep in the Living

Chapter 516 The Strength of a Newcomer

The arrival of Roddy, this "special newcomer," attracted many agents who were not currently on missions to come and watch.

Everyone gathered in one "compartment".
Through the one-way mirror in the cubicle, one can directly observe the new recruit assessment taking place on special floors, and even some details can be seen clearly.

The test has just begun.
Some detectives believe that the so-called special newcomer is just a facade, and that he will be caught in trouble from the very beginning due to negligence. They estimate that this test will end soon.

A voice that seemed to be on the verge of death came from behind, “Watch closely... If you can’t even see through this, you don’t need to go on the subsequent explorations. Your level is too low. You’d be better off going back to being investigators.”

When the minister spoke, everyone immediately became more alert and re-examined the situation, and many agents noticed the details.

"Could this guy have deliberately fallen for it? He doesn't want to waste time searching for the two spirit monsters, since they can move freely through the walls and have an advantage in the area."

But how do we break this deadlock?
The coffin was specifically designed for him; once inside, although he would be able to come into contact with the monster, he would also be trapped in a deadly predicament.

In many people's eyes, Luo Di, who had just arrived at headquarters, was always labeled as a newcomer. He had no belongings and not many resources, so it was hard to imagine how he could handle the current situation.

however,
As Roddy was placed in the coffin

As the female ghost's hand grasped his body.

A buzzing sound came from the electrical circuit, and the screen changed.

All the agents in the cubicle, including the minister, showed varying degrees of change in their expressions.

The tall woman who had been standing beside the minister looked utterly incredulous. "Domain effect!? How is that possible? Even if this guy had sprouted, he couldn't possibly possess a domain of this level so early, could he?"

Could it be related to the Connector's identity?

Moreover, this field appears to be so well-developed that even we bystanders are affected.

Even if we weren't drawn into it, we were still given the identity of "spectators".

The surveillance site has been completely transformed into a movie theater, with even the visual and audio outputs now movie-related.

Minister…our department has really picked up two true 'monsters' this time.”

"That's great! We need people like this to keep our exploration going. Time is running out."

The minister sat up straight; he hadn't been this excited in a long time.

……

【Seal House】

Yu Ze looked at the scene displayed in the basin and gave an awkward smile.

"Holy crap, you're amazing! No wonder you were in such a hurry to submit your application. The monster area is indeed a good place for your development, fellow villager. Your progress is a bit too exaggerated."

If I had known, I would have gone all out with the ingredients; how can we play like this now?

We can only do our best.

Yu Ze rummaged through his backpack again and found an egg that he hadn't originally intended to use—or rather, a balut (fertilized egg).

Smash it.

The stillborn fetus, whose development had ceased, fell into the basin of water.

Under the influence of the stillborn fetus, the two twin monsters began to have an origin reaction, and the red lines on their abdomens gradually became clearer and more realistic, like umbilical cords.

The umbilical cord began to pull, completely fusing the two together.

The younger sister's face appeared on the back of the older sister's head.

Arms grow out from under the armpits.
Deep red curse lines covered his entire body.
The deeper the resentment and the greater the hatred, the more enhanced all bodily functions become.

Despite being in their most powerful form, the conjoined monsters were trembling slightly.

"Huh? What's going on?"

As the mastermind behind the scenes, Yu Ze could intuitively sense that the conjoined monsters had developed a primal fear, making them tense and unable to control themselves.

Yu Ze's side quickly identified the source of the fear.
blood,
Do not know why,

The monsters were actually afraid of the blood on their bodies, even though they were associated with blood and often carried it with them when they moved around.

"Hemophobia? How did you manage that?"

Just as Yu Ze was wondering,
The conjoined monsters, overwhelmed by higher fear, began to lose control and tried to rush into the nearby lake to wash away the bloodstains on their bodies.

Yu Ze immediately saw through Luo Di's intention: once the conjoined monsters fell into the water, everything would be over.

He quickly burned a strange talisman to modify and suppress the female ghosts' senses, turning their vision black and white and preventing them from smelling any blood.

But this process takes time. When the talisman burned out, the conjoined female ghosts were just one step away from touching the lake water and standing on the damp shore.

Ring ring ring!
Yu Ze quickly rang the bell, trying to get it away from the lake.

However, the conjoined ghosts remained unmoved, not because they disobeyed orders, but because something had grabbed their ankles.

"Danger!"

Yu Ze decisively ordered the female ghost to abandon her legs, but he was still a step too late.

Whoosh! A certain slash has been formed.

Even the basin was cracked, and Yu Ze was splashed with foul-smelling water. At the lakeside...
A severed leg, along with part of the body, remained there.

Fortunately, the sisters were twins. The younger sister quickly grew a body to replace the flesh that her older sister had cut off. They then retreated back to the campsite, staring intently at the scene of the incident.

A 'Jason' wearing a hockey mask, exactly like the one in the movie, emerged from the lake, casually crushing the severed limbs with oversized rubber shoes.

The weird thing is,
Jason was clearly holding a metal baseball bat in one hand and wearing a glove on the other, and there was no part of his body that could be used for cutting.

The conjoined ghosts were just cut apart incredibly quickly, and even Yu Ze's side was affected.

When Jason fully revealed himself,

A sense of oppression descends simultaneously, and the essence of the film immediately labels both parties as "murderer" and "prey".

Once this label is applied, the prey will be completely weakened and put in a vulnerable position.

Conjoined female ghosts are not the type to confront things head-on.

Yu Ze decisively rang the bell, signaling them to quickly turn back and hide in the forest, where they used their spiritual properties to blend completely with the environment and wait for their opportunity.

Strange things happened again.

No matter how the conjoined ghosts tried to escape or hide, they could always hear the sound of rubber soles on the ground, making it impossible for them to get rid of them.

"Is it marked? The moon or blood... This is the only way."

Yu Ze then took out a scarecrow from his bag, wrapped the female ghost's hair around it, smeared it with his finger blood, and quickly put it into the basin of water.

In the forest,

The serial killer "Jason" quickly located his prey based on the markings.

The target's behavior was a bit strange; it seemed to know it had been marked but stopped trying to evade.

naked and sitting cross-legged,

Like a lost girl, she sobbed softly in the woods, her back turned.

Without the slightest hesitation, Roddy approached at the same speed.

The crying stopped abruptly when the person got within two meters!
Cursed lines buried in the soil had already wrapped around Roddy's legs, restricting his movement.

The conjoined twins suddenly turned around.

screeching and howling,
A cursed claw suddenly attacked.

when!
A series of metallic clanging sounds echoed through the forest, accompanied by a burst of wind pressure.

The metal baseball bat slammed heavily onto the head of the conjoined ghosts, carrying an intense aura of fear that could inflict direct damage on monsters, even spirits.

This blow completely crushed the target, scattering its bones and flesh.

One of the pieces of meat happened to fall where the moonlight was shining, and under the moonlight, the meat piece took on the shape of straw.

at this time,

The curse lines had spread across Roddy's entire body, forming a complete seal.

A sudden gust of wind arose!

The surrounding leaves were blown onto Roddy, and talismanic marks appeared on their surfaces, suppressing Roddy's murderous body.

Ugh! A guttural sound, laced with hatred, came from behind.

The real female ghost seeped out from among the trees.

Four wildly twisting arms were already locked onto the back of Roddy's head.

Suddenly... crack! (Sound of cervical spine movement)
While keeping his body still, Roddy turned his head 90°.

Glancing sideways at the conjoined female ghosts attacking from behind,
Without fear,

Without hatred,

Without any form of emotion,
He simply looked at the other person calmly, as if he were watching prey that had fallen into a net.

A wisp of ash drifted down through the forest.

Massacre

No weapons needed

consciousness only

Roddy had always wanted to test the power of his newly acquired slaughtering techniques, enhanced by cinematic effects.

click!
The basin of water in front of Yu Ze, along with the entire portable altar, was torn in two, and even a shallow crack appeared on the ground.

Ding!
At the same time, a metallic clanging sound was heard.

Yu Ze held the copper coin sword in front of him, took two steps back, and released bursts of heat from the surface of the sword, with the two copper coins inside completely red-hot.

"Fellow villager, you... are a bit too perverted."
