Help! I changed the gender of the male protagonist in the yandere game.

Chapter 213 Scream
Hank died just like that.

This was something no one had expected... At this moment, not only Ye Ming, but even Bai Jie was extremely shocked.

"This guy... died so easily."

That fraudulent alchemist died far too easily; his head just flew off, his face still showing an expression of complete ignorance of what had just happened.

This man never anticipated his own death until the very end.

However, the laws of death itself are something that human will cannot completely refuse.

The monster's gaze seemed not to regard Bai Jie and Ye Ming as enemies; it merely stared indifferently at Hank's corpse and the void.

"This is so boring..."

It shook its head and said softly, "Hank, I had such high expectations for you, thinking you would bring me more fun."

The monster's shadow suddenly lengthened, revealing many fleshy spheres filled with eyeballs—the monster's spies that had once been distributed throughout the entire cave.

"You don't really think you can hide your little tricks from me, do you?"

...This guy actually knew Hank would rebel.

In an instant, Hyakusuke understood everything.

No, the intelligence was leaked from the very beginning.

Their group's plans were always under the monster's control, and Hank's actions were no different from the clown's, because the monster knew everything about his actions.

However, on the other hand, although Hyakusuke and Yoru were ignored by the monsters, they were still unable to move.

"Oh, right."

Suddenly, the monster's gaze shifted again, and it grinned, revealing menacing fangs and a malicious smile.

"There are two more guests here... You were invited by Hank to participate in his project, right?"

The demon Mephisto's fragmented spirit laughed maliciously and said, "Unfortunately, Hank is already dead, so I can only send you all to die together."

"Do it!"

It called out.

The humanoid monster, emitting pitch-black flames from its entire body, moved, and another monster, seemingly pieced together from countless animals and beasts, also moved at that instant.

They all received orders from the monster and launched an attack on the two from the left and right.

The humanoid monster roared and charged forward, unleashing countless fireballs from its massive body towards the two of them.

Another giant, pieced together from various animals and beasts, also spewed out violent poisonous gas from countless beast mouths.

These poisonous gases are formed from the resentment, curses, and pain of the many people and animals they have killed. As the poisonous gases spread through the void, wolves formed from the gas are constantly being born.

The wolves began to run, bubbles rising from the ground beneath their forepaws and gradually dissolving. These wolves, fueled by strong acid, leaped up.

Then, the attack reached the monster.

Each fireball was about the size of a fist, and there were many of them. They turned around in mid-air.

Launch a fierce attack on the monster; the pitch-black, lightless fireballs will decompose matter upon impact and combustion.

On the other side, the poison gas formed a pack of wolves, which also went berserk and began to tear at the monster, extending their teeth and claws that could melt metal.

An explosion occurred, fire and smoke mingled together, and red and black flames swept in all directions, completely engulfing the monster's figure.

"……what?"

Ye Ming was stunned, her beautiful lips slightly parted, as if she couldn't believe what was happening.

That's right, she couldn't understand why the two monsters who were just under the monster's command would suddenly attack the monster.

"There's nothing to understand about it."

A man's slightly helpless voice rang out.

"Because these two monsters were created by me... As a fragment of the Great Demon Mephisto, this guy can indeed command them, but my commands have higher priority..."

Ye Ming turned his head and saw a figure walking towards him from behind.

"It's you?"

The man casually stretched out his hand, and the rolling head on the ground moved slightly twice. Then, a small blue hand emerged from the ear and eye socket, and small feet of the same color grew from the cross-section of the head.

Hank's head transformed into a small, blue, hellish monster that grabbed the sleeve of one hand and began to climb up the arm.

Finally, a similar head reached a man's right shoulder.

Hank wore a bitter expression as the little monster lay across his right shoulder.

It props itself up with its limbs, supporting its small chin with its hands, and has small bat wings behind it, while its feet and arrow-shaped tail sway behind it.

"In fact, most people who can become alchemists have had contact with the other dimension of Hell."

Hank, the man who should have been dead, reappeared behind the group—a small ghost lay on his right shoulder, and his body exuded a powerful spiritual energy filled with tranquility.

It's unclear how this man managed to conceal his true strength; he wasn't the weak and powerless person he had previously claimed to be.

"Alright, it's time to move on to the second round."

Hank's gaze was fixed on the direction of the monster.

As the thick smoke dissipated, a cold voice slowly rang out.

"So that's how it is... The original Hank was a clone of yourself that you created, which you controlled remotely through a familiar—"

The unharmed monster emerged from the thick smoke; the attacks from the two powerful experimental subjects had not harmed it.

No, the attack was distorted the moment it struck.

The monster's body distorted, as if the light itself was being blocked by a strange power that warped space.

The power of distortion is utterly unreasonable; any attack will be deflected or twisted when faced with this incredible defense.

Naturally, by freely tilting the surrounding space, the attacks of the two powerful experimental subjects were all distorted by the absolute defensive "iron wall," which is the space itself.

"Although it was a bit of a surprise, the result is still the same. The original plan was to trap me in the Heart-Breaking Barrier when I was possessed, that is, when I was being transferred and copied, right?"

The monster laughed triumphantly.

"So now, do you still have this plan?"

Its left and right hands released a distorted shape, stretching the space like a spring, only to be violently pulled back.

The atmosphere was distorted, and the light flickered. The two experimental subjects, who were originally some distance apart and moving backward, were caught by the distorted, stretched, and then contracted space, and dragged by an immense force to the monster's side.

The monster swung its left and right hands in a fierce attack.

boom!
Shockwaves erupted from his left and right palms, and the explosive demonic energy pierced through the two test subjects.

With a muffled sound, the chest of the pitch-black humanoid exploded, as if spurting blood, and exuded a dark gray demonic aura.
Another monster, composed of various animals and beasts, was also struck by the right hand, its body exploding into pieces.

A holy flame condensed in the man's hands, then erupted, bursting forth like a spear of light.

Alchemists are not weaklings. Even if he is not a super-level exorcist, he is not far from that level.

In that instant, the monster's vision was filled with blinding flashes of light, like a miniature sun descending to earth.

The Spear of Holy Light.

This is an exorcism spell used exclusively by the church.

However, it's impossible for an average person to reach that level of skill.

What Hank was unleashing from his hands was no longer a spear-like attack, but a beam of light. However, the beam of light struck an invisible wall in an instant, bent, and then dispersed into several beams of varying thickness, scattering in all directions and nearly hitting the immobilized Hyakusuke and Yoru.

"The power of distortion is like an impenetrable fortress... Even if your true form arrives, you still have no chance of winning in a head-on battle."

The monster chuckled with ease.

"Do it!"

Hank shouted.

His voice exuded a kind of "power of words".

Ye Ming instantly broke free from the restraint exerted by the pressure from the other party. The speed at which she drew her sword was so fast that it was impossible for the naked eye to see it.

"'Lightning Flash'."

She recited the secret sword technique, and with a flash of light from her sword, the piercing sound of the wind transformed into a roar of lightning.

Blast!

This strike scorched the air and kicked up sand and gravel from the ground. The powerful slash turned everything in sight white with its flash. The blade of the Mizutsu Sword was crackling with lightning, creating a blinding light the moment it was swung out.

The long whip, as sharp as lightning, was lashed out. The lightning-formed attack twisted and turned in the air, like a giant snake swimming freely. In an instant, it bypassed the spatial barrier formed by the "distortion" and attacked the monster's left-side opening.

'Spatial distortion is not an invincible force.'

Yue Jialuo Yeming remembered the information that Bai Jie had just told her.

'It can only be said that this ability is indeed nearly invincible in terms of defense, but it still has weaknesses...'

Based on Yeming's description, he guessed that this ability was essentially the same as, yet somewhat different from, that of the priestess among the Twelve Guardians who was skilled in using the "Shrinking Earth Technique".

"When the distortion is activated, it will form a warped space bubble, similar to a sphere, which defends itself by stretching or pushing space. This should only distort a part of the surrounding space. If it expands to the point that it also swallows itself, wouldn't it distort and destroy itself as well?"

Bai Jie analyzed, "Logically speaking, the other party would make this kind of mistake... then it's easier to deal with."

He coughed lightly and said, "No matter how distorted it is, it can only defend against a portion of the attack, just like raising a large shield. Although the front of the body is protected, there are definitely areas that are not protected."

That's right, in actual combat, spatial magic like Distortion cannot provide perfect self-defense.

If you can see through the distortion created by the twist, and then launch an attack with a penetrating strike, you will have a chance to hurt your opponent.

The beam of light was focused on a single point, which was clearly intentional on Hank's part. His attack allowed Ye Ming to see through the distortion range, and the giant snake formed from lightning snaked its way through, striking the monster's body with a roundabout attack.

The lightning finally struck its target.

No, it only pierced through the monster's raised left arm.

On the other hand, this attack was just a smokescreen. The "True World King" held in the long-haired girl's left hand was also swung out at that moment, destroying the magic on the steel coffin.

This caused the sealing spell to collapse. Bai Jie finally had a chance to escape, and with a powerful punch, the spiritual energy contained within shattered the coffin lid.

This allowed him to burst out of the steel coffin. Having lost the blessing of the demonic energy, his combat strength was now far from sufficient to participate in this battle.

However, Hyakusuke also carries the "Heart-Breaking Barrier," which forms a black box. This is the only attack on the entire battlefield that can have a substantial deterrent effect on monsters.

"Go!"

Hyakusuke reached out with his right hand and grasped the box.

In that instant, he activated his "Shrinking Earth" ability, teleporting his right hand, along with the black box in his palm, to the monster's front.

"Start it."

Bai Jie infused his spiritual power into the black box, and dark particles of light spread out, creating an unusual storm.

The "Heart-Breaking Barrier" was activated, and the grid-like patterns on the black box began to change, just like building blocks or a Rubik's Cube, flipping, unfolding, and expanding from the inside out.

Before everyone's eyes, slender beams of light rose up, their tips splitting to the left and right as they sped through the sky.

In that instant, light and darkness intertwined in the space, covering a large area and forming a huge, grid-like cube.

The large cube, composed of countless grids, expanded outwards, and a vast barrier unfolded around the monster's body, sealing this information life form within the space inside the cube.

"...Was it successful?"

Hank hadn't expected that Bai Jie would come up with this way of activating the barrier.

"No, it failed."

The monster's voice rang out.

The next second, the Heart-Breaking Barrier shattered.

"Hank, I saw through your plan long ago. Breaking the Heart Barrier is not difficult; it just takes a little more time to come up with a way to break the curse."

The monster charged out, unleashing a strike with its right hand. The distorted power was transformed, and in that instant, space was torn apart.

This was its true trump card, an absolute and unstoppable strike. Ye Ming's right hand, holding the knife, flew out, and blood spurted out.

Hank's upper body was also severed at the waist, and he fell down while spitting blood.

The tide of battle was turned completely in an instant.

The monster's other left hand quickly regenerated.

The palm opened out, twisting inward to compress space, and Hyakusuke's body involuntarily flew up.

His neck was grabbed and held tightly by five dark fingers.

"Your plan is full of flaws, so what makes you think you can beat me?"

Suddenly, the monster that was grabbing Hyakusuke with its pitch-black hand paused for a moment, looking at him with some confusion.

"Wait a minute... what's with this on you? It feels so familiar..."

At first, the monster's eyes were filled with intense confusion, but after a moment, they gleamed with unusual joy.

"This is the aura of ghosts and spirits, but no, there's something else... It seems like something interesting is sealed inside your head? Let me take a good look."

what are you saying?
Bai Jie was completely baffled. However, the monster released him with its left hand and then tapped his forehead with a finger.

His body began to tremble, and then he lost all feeling in his hands and feet and could not move. Thick sweat soaked his entire body.

"What an interesting spell... but it's not difficult to undo."

The monster spoke in a cruel tone.

In an instant, a powerful and overwhelming force descended. My mind felt as if it were about to explode.

boom!
With a surge of intense emotion, a sharp pain, and the release of distorted memories, a torrent of emotions surged forth.

Hyakusuke couldn't hold back and let out a scream.

My brain felt like it had been peeled open, and all sorts of chaotic things poured out from it.

"Hahahaha...! This is so interesting, human! Your memory is far more fascinating than I imagined!"

The monster forcibly extracted various emotions and memories from his brain.

'Is this a treasure trove...? Has someone marked the coordinates and left behind a vast amount of information? What are they planning to do?'

It browsed through these memories and began to ponder.

However, the monster was unaware of the impending crisis and was only engrossed in exploring Hyakusuke's brain.

In that instant, a jet-black blade emerged from the shadow beneath Bai Jie's feet, piercing through the monster's chest.
