While in Hollywood, I used Taoist magic to quell American terrorism.

"Heh...heh..."

The heavy breathing, mixed with the splattering of wet, sticky saliva, was exceptionally clear in the silent room.

Chris's pupils finally refocused, his unfocused gaze rising as if struggling to emerge from the deep sea.

He hunched over, his hands resting on his knees, swallowing air in large gulps, as if he had just been pulled from the water.

It took him quite a while to realize Cao Kun was there.

"Damn..." Chris's voice was hoarse, trembling with the shock of surviving a close call.

"Thank you... thank you for coming."

His gratitude was mixed with lingering fear, and the cold sweat on his forehead glistened under the light.

Cao Kun nodded slightly.

The reason he arrived so quickly to save this guy was not only because of the warm hospitality he received that night, but also because Cao Kun didn't want him to die.

He bought the rights to "Captain America".

And this guy will soon be playing this role.

Although Hollywood is never short of excellent actors, it's safer to continue down the same path as those who have already achieved success.

"stand up."

Cao Kun reached out and grabbed Chris's arm. The arm was cold, and the muscles were still twitching involuntarily. With a slight pull, he lifted Chris off the floor.

Chris staggered and shook his head violently.

It was as if I wanted to shake something sticky and unwilling to leave my mind.

He wiped his face; his palms were covered in sweat.

Tell me about it.

Cao Kun's voice was calm, carrying a reassuring quality: "What happened?"

Chris took a deep breath and rubbed his cheeks, as if trying to wash away an invisible layer of grime.

"I met a woman online."

He paused for a moment, his gaze drifting into the void, his voice revealing a kind of morbid longing.

"She's so beautiful... unrealistically beautiful."

She has a perfect figure, and every curve of her body is a carefully calculated temptation.

More importantly—she understands me.

They understand my every moment of excitement and every moment of sadness, always saying the right thing at the right time…

Chris's voice gradually faded, and a dazed smile appeared on his face.

It felt as if I had sunk back into that illusory sweetness.

"You've fallen in love with her," Cao Kun said, not as a question, but as a statement.

"Love?" Chris gave a bitter smile, his voice dry.

"It wasn't just love...it was addiction. I couldn't find any reason not to be infatuated with her. None."

Cao Kun: "And then?"

Chris: "After that, my relationship with her got better and better, and we confirmed our relationship online."

I suggested meeting her in person, but she always said to wait a bit, that she wasn't ready yet.

Out of respect for her, although I was eager to see her, I did not urge her.

Until today, she suddenly told me that she was ready and could meet me.

I was very happy and hurriedly asked her where she was and when.

But……"

At this point, a look of fear appeared on Chris's face, and his breathing suddenly became rapid.

His voice began to tremble: "But...she...she said, right now, right here...here."

Then, the world before my eyes suddenly changed.

He unconsciously placed his hands on his chest, as if seeking a sense of security.

"I suddenly found myself in a room... The lights were a warm, ambiguous pink, and there was a sweet, cloying fragrance in the air."

She was there, even more beautiful than in the photos...beautiful beyond human comprehension.

Every movement, every glance, embodies the meaning of ultimate beauty.

At that time, I felt... she was the embodiment of all charm in the world.

Chris swallowed hard, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.

"I've gone mad. I've forgotten how I came to be, forgotten everything illogical... all I want is her."

I rushed over to her, and she didn't resist, she just smiled... that smile... it felt like the most beautiful smile in the world.

He raised his hand to wipe away the sweat; his hand was trembling violently.

"I kissed her... I kissed her all over. And then... and then..."

Chris's face turned deathly pale, and his pupils constricted.

"Her skin...is starting to peel off."

These words sounded like they were squeezed out from between his teeth.

"Like taking off clothes...the whole skin, from head to toe, slides down."

Below was a bloody body, muscles exposed, veins throbbing... and she had grown bigger, a whole head taller than me.

She just kept kissing me like that.

Chris gagged and covered his mouth.

His face turned pale. His breathing became even heavier.

Cao Kun did not rush him, but waited for him to calm down.

After a while, Chris began to speak again:

"I was terrified. My mind cleared instantly, and I pushed her away."

She paused for a moment, seemingly surprised that I had managed to wake up at that moment.

Then, she lunged at me again, continuing to kiss me...

I struggled desperately, but I was no match for her.

Suddenly, she got angry and said that if I didn't listen to her, she would lock me up in this place forever.

After saying that, she walked out, and the room was sealed off, with no way out.

It was only then that I realized the seriousness of the situation.

Chris suddenly looked up at Cao Kun: "I knocked on every corner of the room, but I still can't find a way out."

Suddenly, I realized that I had gone to that place without any warning.

I began to suspect that I hadn't actually left my room; I was just mentally trapped there.

I closed my eyes and screamed in my heart to wake myself up.

I tried many times, but all attempts failed.

But I didn't give up. I continued to try again and again. Suddenly, a force rushed into my mind and gave me a jolt.

I actually left that place and went back to my own room.

I was overjoyed, feeling that I had finally escaped.

But the next moment, that room reappeared before my eyes.

My own room and that room kept flashing, faintly beginning to overlap.

I realized that I hadn't really escaped; I had only temporarily detached myself.

I thought of you, and I immediately took out my phone and called you.

But before I could finish speaking, I was back in that room.

I saw her again, and she had regained her beautiful appearance. I was so mesmerized that I forgot everything that had happened before.

He kissed her again.

Moreover, this time, I didn't notice any changes in her at all.

The distance between us is getting closer and closer.

Just then, a force suddenly fell on me, trying to pull me away.

I suddenly came to my senses and realized that she still had no skin and was still covered in blood and gore.

I yelled and pushed her away again.

She stopped blaming me and instead discovered the power within me.

She held me down, preventing me from leaving.

That force, after a brief stalemate with her, gradually disappeared.

Just when I thought I had failed, that power reappeared, and it was even stronger than the first time.

Suddenly, my vision blurred, and I was finally back.
