American Zombie Detective

At this critical moment!

In the corner, Alessa, who had been suppressed by an invisible force, suddenly erupted like a volcano from the depths of her gray-blue eyes, revealing a long-suppressed black-red light!

She was holding it in!

The corrosive power erupted from her body, and the will that had been binding her was momentarily slowed down in the face of the absolute corrosive primal power!

But that's enough!

Her body suddenly appeared in front of Amy, her outstretched hand firmly grasping that strand of hair, while the bear cub Yuanxiao, suddenly losing its support, fell to the ground with a thud, staring blankly and confusedly around with its little eyes...

"You don't actually know," Qin Jin's voice was like a pronouncement, "that you couldn't contain Alessa at all!"

"roar--!!!"

Enraged beyond measure, Zhan Mapeng unleashed a deafening, soul-piercing scream!

Countless viscous, writhing black hairs, exuding endless stench and resentment, like a black torrent bursting its banks, or like billions of twisted venomous snakes, instantly filled the entire ward!

Their target is no longer Amy, but Qin Jin and Alessa!

This is the most insane, all-or-nothing attack ever!

The torrent of black hair instantly engulfed Qin Jin and Alessa. The hair, carrying a strong corrosive power to the soul, wrapped around and tightened around the two of them like living things, trying to burrow into their skin, mouth and nose, and tear and devour their souls!

Aresa was entangled in her hair, her small body remaining completely still.

Those strands of resentful hair, enough to instantly drain the life force of an ordinary person, clung to her body, yet it was as if she had sunk into the deepest, coldest quagmire of nothingness.

They writhed and twisted frantically, trying to absorb and corrode, but Aretha's grey-blue eyes simply gazed calmly ahead, as if these deadly attacks were merely dust brushing against her body.

The corrosive power within her body rejects any further corruption.

The only one in danger is Qin Jin. Although his skin won't be pierced by a hair, his seven orifices are his weak points. He can't withstand this kind of soul-searching erosion!

However, with thousands of years of combat experience, Qin Jin had already come up with a countermeasure!

In the blink of an eye, a strange change occurred!

A layer of white frost, visible to the naked eye and radiating extreme cold, spread instantly like a plague, starting from his right hand!

Wherever Bai Shuang passed, the wildly twisting, gnawing, and tentacled hairs that were trying to burrow into his body suddenly froze!

Frost quickly forms on the hair strands, then freezes, eventually producing a slight crackling sound!

Then Qin Jin raised his head!

His eyes were no longer human eyes!

Those were two crimson flames burning fiercely in the darkness, filled with ancient, violent, and primal desires that devoured everything!

Sharp fangs protruded from the corners of his mouth, gleaming with a chilling light!

An immense, suffocating suction force suddenly erupted from Qin Jin. This was not a physical suction force, but a terrifying devouring force that directly affected the soul!

"Ughh ...

A piercing scream, so intense it seemed to come from the deepest hell, erupted from Amy's core, which was enveloped in hair!

The voice was filled with extreme fear and disbelief!

"What...what are you?! What kind of monster are you?!"

Zhan Mapeng's soul and will screamed and struggled wildly under the pulling force!

She felt her soul essence, which was firmly attached to Amy's body, being forcibly torn out of its host body by an irresistible and tyrannical force!

The target was those eyes burning with blood-red flames!

A low, hoarse, bloodthirsty growl escaped Qin Jin's throat, filled with a century's worth of suppressed violence and the rage of being forced to reveal his true nature:

"I... just want to live a low-key life... like a human being!"

Every word seemed to be squeezed out from between teeth, carrying shards of ice:

"You...you just had to...trouble...and provoke me?!" Blood-red eyes were fixed on the twisted, struggling, gray-black soul essence that had been sucked out.

"Why...why can't you...just...go and die peacefully!"

The last few words exploded like a thunderclap!

This is the roar originating from the Undying Bone, and also from the most violent and chilling power in the world!

The Undying Bone originates from zombies, yet it is different from zombies!

He no longer relies solely on blood! The essence of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and moon, and even the most fundamental souls of living beings can all be transformed into resources for his power!

For centuries, the Qin and Jin people have tried their best to suppress this instinct, integrate into the human world, age and change identities like ordinary people, all in order to seek a sense of peace and tranquility.

While consuming souls and human blood could enhance his power and accelerate his evolution, it was not what he desired!

The mottled resentment, anger, hatred, and malice contained within his soul and power are like a deadly poison. Once ingested, they will settle in his body, gradually causing him to lose his way and become unable to control his bloodthirsty instincts!

This is the real reason why Qin Jin has always been consuming animal blood, abandoning the powerful strength of the Undying Bone, and allowing himself to become weak!

But now, faced with the evil magic that threatens his soul, Qin Jin has no choice!

Refusing to die honestly is the original sin!

"No--!!!"

Zhan Mapeng's remnant soul let out a desperate wail, and under the terrifying suction, it was like dust being swept into a black hole, frantically surging towards Qin Jin's blood-flame eyes!

As the core soul was forcibly devoured, the endless torrent of black hair in the ward collapsed instantly, like a dam that had lost its support!

The ice crystals covering the hair shattered bit by bit!

Countless strands of hair lost their vitality at a visible rate, turning gray, dry, and as fragile as ashes!

Like ashes from a fire, they broke and fell in a rustling sound, accumulating in a thick layer on the ground!

This time!

Amidst her jet-black hair, the last strand of gray-white hair, carrying Zhan Mapeng's last remaining will, shot out the window like an arrow, attempting to escape with Zhan Mapeng's hope of entering reincarnation—

A small, cold hand precisely caught it in its palm!

It's Alessa!

Before Qin Jin could make a move, she grabbed the supplies first, while looking at Qin Jin in front of her!

His current condition is extremely dangerous!

Although Qin Jin only used less than 30% of his original power, the negative effects of absorbing supernatural creatures immediately appeared!

This is not the first time Zhan Mapeng has had her soul transferred!

She has been transferred to another soul at least three times, and the vast filth, resentment, hatred, and malice that have settled in her soul far exceed those of ordinary beings.

Now, this power is desperately nourishing Qin Jin's body, which is a huge tonic for a zombie body, but it is also the source of Qin Jin's loss of control!

Blood flames leaped wildly in his eyes, and the dark blue veins under his skin bulged out menacingly like living creatures!

His body trembled slightly as he tried his best to suppress the raging violence and devouring desire within him, almost on the verge of losing control!

He stared intently at what Alessa was holding, letting out low growls.

Seeing Qin Jin struggling in pain, Aresa didn't hesitate at all; the deep darkness in the depths of her gray-blue eyes suddenly surged!

"I'm coming!" she said calmly.

An erosive domain capable of annihilating all things erupted from her body, without any earth-shattering force, only an absolute annihilation that brought all things to a state of stillness.

The tuft of gray hair in her palm, which contained Zhan Mapeng's last will and strength, disintegrated, collapsed, and vanished in an instant before it could even struggle or utter a sound!

At the moment of annihilation, a pure source of soul power, but bearing a strong negative imprint, was silently absorbed into the enormous, faintly visible black shadow behind Aresa!

The two worked together, one devouring the main body and the other annihilating the residue and sharing some of the core soul power, like sharing a meal!

"Well!"

Qin Jin groaned. It seemed that Alessa had taken away some of the violent impact within him, and the pressure had eased slightly. However, the massive and mixed soul power, which was a mixture of the sorcerer's century-old resentment, greed, and evil magic memories, was still raging wildly within him and Alessa!

Both of them felt as if their souls had been shoved into a scalding hot iron, or as if they were being bitten by countless poisonous insects. The alternation between cold and heat, the violent killing intent and the desire to devour, almost broke through the dam of reason!

The bluish-black veins under the skin became more prominent, and the blood flames in Qin Jin's eyes and the surging black and red light in Aresa's eyes flickered intensely!

"You shouldn't have!"

Qin Jin, suppressing the excruciating pain that felt like his soul was being torn apart and the surging killing intent, growled at Alessa, his voice hoarse and distorted:

"Sharing the burden... will make you lose control!"

Aresa's small body trembled slightly, but she struggled to stand upright, her grey-blue eyes defiant against the churning darkness within, looking at Qin Jin with a barely perceptible hint of determination in her voice:

"I'll stay with you."

Looking at the human determination in Alessa's eyes, Qin Jin forcibly suppressed the roar of corpses and the urge to destroy that was about to burst forth.

He abruptly turned his head to look at the dark night sky outside the window, thinking of the information he had gathered before taking action:

"Go!" he spat out the word through gritted teeth, his voice carrying an undeniable resolve, "Go...to draw Yin blood!"
