Apocalypse: No rebirth! Time to upgrade the sewers!

I was suddenly struck hard in the chest!

A tremendous force came, causing him to uncontrollably retreat several steps.

Immediately afterwards, a suction force came from his chest, as if something was stuck to his clothes, desperately pulling him deeper into the corridor.

He didn't care whether the clothes were new or not!

Puff puff!

Several sharp, purplish-black thorns instantly sprouted from his chest!

At the same time, his sharp claws shot out and stabbed fiercely into the air in front of him!

It has a distinct feeling of being absorbed into the flesh!

"grumble--!"

A heart-wrenching scream exploded in front of him.

Ripples, like water, began to appear in the space in front of him, gradually becoming distorted and blurred.

A huge outline emerged.

That was a giant chameleon that was at least two meters tall!

Its body was covered with rough scales, and its color slowly turned green.

Its tongue was pierced by Song Qing's spikes and claws at the same time, and stuck right to his down jacket.

Song Qing was stunned for a moment, but he quickly recovered.

He exerted force with his jet-black claws!

Tear--!

A muffled, slicing sound.

That sticky tongue was torn in half by his sharp claws!

"grumble--!"

Another ear-piercing scream.

The chameleon's six bright red eyes stared intently at him.

The giant chameleon's tongue was gushing green blood.

The excruciating pain drove it completely insane.

It charged straight at Song Qing without any regard for anything else!

The heavy footsteps thumped loudly, each step causing the ground to tremble slightly.

Song Qing fired out all the spikes that had pierced the severed tongue from his chest. The spikes whistled through the air and pierced the chameleon's body, but only penetrated five or six centimeters, which did nothing to stop its momentum.

The chameleon is still charging!

Song Qing's temper flared up as well.

You want to learn Sion's charge attack, huh? Okay!

His left palm was facing up, and the power within his body surged wildly, gathering in his palm.

A giant, purplish-black thorn, a meter long, grew from his palm at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After condensing this spike, he felt a large portion of his body's strength being drained away, and a wave of weakness washed over him.

There was no time to think.

The chameleon had already rushed in front of him, opening its huge mouth full of fangs.

Song Qing used his other hand to support the end of the spike, and with both arms exerting force, he thrust it forward fiercely into that gaping maw!

puff! ! !

A dull, loud bang.

The giant spike pierced through the mutated chameleon's entire skull with overwhelming force, emerging from the back of its head and bringing out a large amount of green brain matter.

The chameleon's massive body lurched forward two more steps due to inertia before finally collapsing to the ground.

The entire hall fell silent.

Song Qing was panting heavily, shaking her slightly numb arm.

[Defeat 1 Tier 2 Mutant Chameleon to gain 50 points]

Current points: 195

The system notification sounded at the appropriate time.

Second order?

He immediately asked the system a question in his mind.

"System, what does 'second-tier' mean?"

[Second-tier mutated creatures refer to mutated creatures that have undergone one evolution, whose physical attributes and abilities far surpass those of ordinary mutated creatures.]

It turned out to be the case.

Song Qing nodded in confusion; no wonder he was so resilient.

He ignored the system and turned his gaze to the huge corpse on the ground.

It's time to eat.

He walked to the chameleon's corpse, clasped his hands together, closed his eyes, and muttered something under his breath.

"It has to be that one...please, it has to be that one..."

With extreme trepidation, he bent down and placed his hands on the chameleon's cold corpse.

"Bingeing!"

[Bingeing successful!]

[Ability Description: Using the invisibility ability will continuously consume mental energy.]

! ! ! ! ! !

coming!

It's really coming!

Song Qing's body jolted violently, and an overwhelming joy instantly swept over him!

He could no longer suppress his excitement and let out a loud, uncontrollable laugh.

"Hahahaha!"

Laughter echoed in the empty hall.

He couldn't wait to open his personal attribute panel.

His physical fitness level also broke through 20 points.

He turned off the panel, a thought forming in his mind.

"Invisibility".

A strange sensation came over him. He looked down and saw that his hands, body, and even his windbreaker and pants had become transparent and finally disappeared into the air.

He raised his hand and waved it in front of his eyes. He couldn't see anything, but he could clearly feel the presence of his arm.

Amazing!

After trying for about ten minutes, he felt a slight dizziness in his brain.

He immediately deactivated his invisibility, and his body and clothes reappeared.

It seems that with his current mental strength, he cannot maintain invisibility for long.

That's enough.

Ye Chen.

Let's see what you do this time.

A cruel smile appeared on Song Qing's face.

But now is not the time to think about these things.

He turned and cast his gaze into the depths of the Hejia Hotel.

The carcass of that second-order chameleon was shriveled and had lost all value.

Song Qing stepped forward and began to explore the budget hotel further.

The corridor leading from the lobby to the guest rooms was covered in blood, and there were huge claw marks on the walls.

Most of the doors on both sides were violently damaged; either the door panels were shattered or the door frames were deformed.

He glanced at several rooms at random, and without exception, they were all in a mess and covered in dried blood.

It seems that the people on the first floor of this hotel have long been the chameleon's prey.

I wonder how many people this beast has eaten.

Song Qing walked to the end of the corridor, where the stairwell leading to the second floor was completely blocked by various kinds of clutter.

He retreated to the lobby and remembered what he had seen when he first arrived: a fire escape staircase on the left exterior wall of the hotel.

Let's go check the second floor.

He walked out of the hotel and came to the side of the building.

He climbed the stairs to the second-floor platform.

The fire door on the second floor was locked from the inside and could not be opened.

But there is a window next to the door.

Song Qing no longer hesitated.

He raised his fist and smashed it down on the glass!

boom!

With a sharp crack, the glass shattered instantly.

He climbed over the hole and went inside.

There are people here.

As soon as he landed, he saw that the entrance to the second-floor corridor had been blocked off with various tables, chairs, cabinets, and mattresses.

There were still many drag marks and bloodstains on the ground.

Song Qing immediately became alert.

There have been cases of cannibalism in the community parking lot; who knows what kind of people are in this hotel?

A thought suddenly occurred to him.

"Invisibility".

His body instantly became transparent and completely disappeared into the air.

He walked forward cautiously, deliberately making his footsteps light and trying not to make any noise.

The corridor was quiet.

Sudden.

Indistinct voices could be heard coming from room 204.

He stopped and moved closer to the door.

"...Brother, there's no sound downstairs." A man's voice rang out.

Immediately following was another rough voice.

"Eighth Brother, are you stupid! If that beast were still alive, wouldn't he have made a sound? Would our eldest brother have heard it?"

"Alright, stop arguing!"

A dignified voice interrupted them.

"Second brother, go open the door and check outside. I think I heard glass breaking just now."

"Okay, big brother."

The sound of a chair being moved came from inside the door.

Song Qing immediately stepped back.

Click.

The door to room 204 was opened a crack, and a man peeked out, looking around warily.

Most importantly, he was holding a gun in his hand!

TEC-9!

Song Qing recognized the gun.

The man known as "Second Brother" didn't notice anything unusual, but he still carefully walked out, gun in hand, heading towards the direction where Song Qing had just smashed the window.

Just as the man passed by him and walked towards the end of the corridor.

Song Qing made a move.
