Deep in the Living

Chapter 612 Agreement
Luo Di watched the match intently, even more nervous than when he himself faced Yu Lu.

"The things on Yu Ze's body are ashes? And not just ordinary ashes, they are dark gold... It should be the world he corresponds to."

He inherited the ashes of a powerful being and tattooed them on his body to form a kind of physical barrier.

He actually managed to block Hunter's bites... He must have been prepared long ago.

If we could hold them off, we would indeed be qualified for direct combat. I used my tongue to sense danger, which was far too risky; if anything happened to my tongue, I would surely die.

Yu Ze might actually have a chance to suppress Hunter.

But it still feels so strange... What exactly did Hunter go through? Did he change so much just from being licked by Gusta?

They showed none of the aggression they displayed when they ambushed me; they only became slightly more proactive when attacked by Yu Ze's zombies.

Now, the killing intent has vanished once more, and there is no longer any desire to devour.

While Luo Di sat in the chair feeling puzzled, Wu Wen had already finished cooling down and walked behind the chair.

"It seems this is the ultimate prize. Hunter has really found the 'path'. The corner hasn't 'shipped' for quite some time."

These words jolted Roddy awake, and he immediately understood Hunter's current state: "Desire suppression, self-control... is this what the monster wants to achieve to reach a higher level?"

Wu Wen's delicate hands reached out from behind and gently massaged Luo Di's temples.

"Stop overthinking it. This isn't something you, as a human, should be concerned about. Just enjoy this rare match. It will be a great help to both of us. Don't get distracted for a moment."

The view shifts back to the playground.

Yu Ze completely changed his former leisurely demeanor. His squinty eyes behind his sunglasses slightly opened, revealing a chilling aura that could kill.

He chose to engage in close combat with Hunter.

Not only that,

The copper coins that had been scattered on the ground were also stirred up by Yu Ze's blood.

"Sword Control Technique"

Yu Ze can wield his sword to slay enemies without being distracted, as if there were a phantom behind him holding the sword.

Attack the upper path with your sword.

Palm through the middle road,

Footwork down the road,

Even though the playground remained unchanged, the spectators seemed to see a formation unfolding beneath Yu Ze's feet.

Feeling threatened, Hunter became slightly more proactive.
Start swinging your fists.
Start kicking.
But Hunter's fighting style hardly qualifies as kung fu; it's more like a normal person's brawl. However, with each move, a large mouth would bite down in tandem.

However, Yu Ze's body was able to withstand the biting, even the weakest parts like his neck, eyes, and lower body.

Each collision leaves only a shallow tooth mark on the surface of the flesh.

After more than ten minutes of continuous fighting,
The copper coin sword flying in the air suddenly accelerated and slashed down.

Hunter sensed danger and quickly used his palm to block. But he found that this sword strike was more powerful than the previous ones, and it even knocked out the teeth between his palms.

The copper coin's inherent power to ward off evil also caused his palms to smoke from the heat.

锁！
Yu Ze suddenly held up two fingers in front of him and let out a soft roar.

The copper coin sword transformed into a soft rope, binding Hunter's injured arm.

For a time,

The middle door is wide open.

Yu Ze moved closer, hooked his wrist around the other man's neck, and tried to throw him... Strangely, Hunter didn't budge.

At this moment,

Yu Ze seemed to see a scene that Luo Di had seen before.

Hunter's body was like a mountain built from countless corpses, rooted to the earth and unshakable.

but,

Yu Ze remained unmoved. He had already analyzed various scenarios and guessed that a top-tier Red Gate monster like this must possess an unimaginable flesh and blood body.

He can move even mountains!
With one hand temporarily bound by the copper coin, Hunter could only reach out to grab Yu Ze with one hand.

This attempt to grab her wrist backfired, allowing her opponent to seize control and subdue her.

At the same time, Yu Ze activated the Vajra Sutra on his body surface and unleashed a powerful low sweeping kick, which landed heavily on Hunter's ankle... precisely the most unstable base of the Mountain of Flesh.

Boom! The mountain shook.

Yu Ze then used his elbow to press down on Hunter's body, causing him to bend forward.

His gaze locked onto the back of Hunter's neck, and he unleashed a powerful chop!
Snapped!
It struck heavily between the cervical vertebrae.

With the blessing of the Diamond Sutra, this palm strike seemed to be given by the real Buddha.

when!
The loud sound of the bell reverberated throughout the playground.
Hunter, this mountain of flesh and blood, was actually uprooted and toppled forward... *Thud!* He crashed heavily to the ground, a noticeable bulge in his cervical spine, indicating a fracture. Yu Ze's offensive, however, was not over.

A heavy foot was stomped on the back of his head.
The intent to kill has been formed.
Yu Ze's brown eyes gradually turned black, becoming like the entrance to an abyss, and his left palm seemed to be dissolving, aimed at Hunter's back.

……

Hunter's perspective.

Long-awaited physical imbalance
He was actually thrown to the ground heavily by this young man.

His body was face down, and his head was firmly pinned down by the sole of the shoe. He could only barely turn his head to the side, and his vision was severely restricted.

It was clearly a dangerous moment.
He was once again lost in his memories.

[Abandoned Factory, Day Twenty-One]

Unable to endure it any longer, the wife committed suicide during the night.

But as long as blood flows, such a place will attract jackals.

Although Hunter woke up earlier than usual, when he did, several young men with red eyes had already come to the area where his family slept.

He tried to stop them, but was punched down by a strong young man and pinned to the ground, unable to move.

He could only listen to the other person discussing how to "divide the meat".

He could only watch as the other person took out the prepared tools and began processing the product right in front of him.
Not only that,

The little boy who tried to protect his mother was also kicked hard, and knelt down a short distance away, vomiting repeatedly, along with blood.

He can't do anything.
They can only be trampled underfoot like this.

I don't know why,
As Hunter watched the group of young people eat, his mouth watered. A voice echoed deep within his mind, a voice from the corner.

In just a few minutes,

There was no one around the wife's body.

Hunter walked over, looking at his wife who had walked hand in hand with him for more than ten years, and at her body that had been gnawed.

this moment,
He seemed to have made up his mind. He knelt down and began to eat voraciously, even though he had already eaten and was already very full, he still kept stuffing food into his mouth.

After his wife's body completely "disappeared,"
He got up and went to his son's side. He had been kicked hard in the abdomen, which caused severe stomach bleeding. In addition, he was already very weak at this time.

The little boy was on the verge of death, clinging to his last breath.

"Dad...where did Mom go?"

Hunter cradled the little boy's head and whispered, "I've taken Mom to a safe place. She's with Grandma now, and no one will hurt them anymore."

"Then Daddy, please pick me up too. I'm in so much pain and so sleepy. I don't want to stay here anymore."

But I still want to go to school and play with my classmates... Dad, you have to pick us up when it's safe outside.

"Okay, Daddy promises you, I'll pick you up as soon as possible, pinky promise!"

The little boy in her arms, who had barely managed to raise his arm, quickly let it fall back down.

Hunter maintained a smile throughout, keeping his promise to his son.

……

On the playground.

The cloth shoes that had been stepping on Hunter's head have been removed.

He slowly stood up.
The flesh on his back seemed to be dissolving, and his clothes had completely dissolved away.

However, the dissolution did not go too deep; the affected flesh had already been bitten off and returned to normal.

Without the cover of outer clothing,

Hunter's severely malnourished body, now over forty, was clearly visible; he was emaciated.

Even so,

He spat out the piece of meat from his mouth, showing no intention of eating.

His eyes became incredibly clear at that moment; he knew what he had to do and how to do it.

"Daddy doesn't need to eat anything else now. Daddy feels like he'll be able to pick you all up soon..."

Just when Hunter was in a delicate state,

On the other side of the playground,
Yu Ze was panting heavily.

The Diamond Sutra on his body had become ineffective, and his entire left side had been bitten off diagonally. He was currently using a black talisman to cover the wound and maintain his life.

Yu Ze showed no intention of admitting defeat, but the scene before him left him unable to calm down for a long time.

He saw something else: a staircase appeared before Hunter, and at the top of the staircase was the red door that represented one of the essences of fear.
