You call me a calamity? But I am Hyper Zetton!

Wu Bai walked towards them step by step.

Qiang snorted coldly and shoved the buzz-cut man who was blocking his way.

He swaggered to the front of the line, arrogantly declaring, "So you're the only one called Wu Bai?"

He raised his chin and pointed to his nose with his thumb: "Listen up, my name is Gao Qiang, a first-order Awakener, Sequence 135 - Immovable King."

"If you bring your sister over to keep me company right now, I can let you go."

"Otherwise, I'll show you what it means to wish you were dead."

The man with the buzz cut next to him quickly stepped forward to flatter him, "Brother Qiang, why would you need to lift a finger for such an ordinary person?"

"Even if he trains for a hundred years, he still can't break through your defenses. Just leave it to us to deal with."

"Um?"

Qiang's face darkened, and he grabbed the buzz-cut man who was about to step forward.

Oh shit.

You clueless idiots, didn't you see I was going to show off in front of you?

The man with the buzz cut understood instantly when he was glared at by that cold gaze.

He chuckled awkwardly twice, then shrank back behind them.

Gao Qiang nodded in satisfaction and stomped his feet hard on the ground.

A thick, earthy-yellow light instantly emanated from his body, like a layer of transparent armor covering his entire form.

"Come on, I'll give you ten moves. Use whatever method you want on me."

"If you can't kill me..."

Before he could finish speaking...

"Click..."

"Pfft..."

A whip-like tentacle instantly shattered the yellow protective aura, and then pierced Gao Qiang's heart.

Gao Qiang's mouth gaped slightly as he looked down in disbelief, then looked up again at the end of the tentacles.

The man with the buzz cut and his thugs were completely terrified by what they saw.

However, the next second, something even more terrifying happened.

Wu Bai, who was standing there, was gone, replaced by a huge, translucent cocoon of flesh.

Inside the fleshy cocoon, a ferocious, shelled creature was curled up.

Its yellow, glowing organs on its face were flashing at an eerie frequency as it stared at them.

Gao Qiang's eyes widened, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and said with difficulty, "I...I've never seen a calamity sequence before...You are sequence 001...Hyper Zetton."

"Monster...monster, he's a calamity!" The man with the buzz cut screamed, then turned and ran wildly towards the alley entrance.

The others were so frightened they ran away in terror, scrambling and crawling.

But it was all in vain. How could Wu Bai let them escape? Several tentacles shot out from the cocoon and pierced through the chests of each escapee.

Wu Bai brought them back to him.

Then, in front of everyone, the tentacle that had pierced through Gao Qiang suddenly contracted, dragging Gao Qiang directly into the translucent cocoon.

The crunching sound of chewing filled the air.

[Acquiring Gene Fragments: Gravitational Pressure, Vajra Body]

[Energy Reserves: 20% - 80% needed to transition into insect form]

[Level: Mid-Tier 2]

The chewing sound disappeared.

"No, don't eat me!" a henchman with a buzz cut screamed as he was pushed into the cocoon.

The chewing sound resumed, like a demon's whisper, striking straight into the souls of the others.

"Help! Is anyone there to help us?"

"Calamity! There is calamity here! Quickly call the police! Quickly notify the Calamity Slayer Bureau!"

This is a demolition area, and there isn't a soul in sight for hundreds of meters around. Their cries for help are destined to go unanswered.

And so, one by one they were sent into the cocoon, until only the man with the buzz cut remained.

The man with the buzz cut was lifted up in front of the cocoon by the tentacles. He looked at the hideous monster so close to him and trembled uncontrollably.

Wu Bai's facial features flickered slightly, his voice revealing neither joy nor anger: "Weren't you quite arrogant before? Why are you silent now? Don't you like it?"

Before he could finish speaking, a tentacle wrapped around the buzz-cut man's left arm.

He pulled suddenly.

"Sizzle..."

"what……"

A heart-wrenching scream pierced the night sky as the severed arm was thrown directly into the cocoon.

Immediately afterwards, another tentacle wrapped around his right arm.

He pulled suddenly.

"Sizzle..."

"what……"

Another piercing scream tore through the night sky as the severed arm was thrown directly into the cocoon.

Looking at the barely alive, buzz-cut man, Wu Bai suddenly burst into laughter: "Hahahahahaha..."

Just then, something unexpected happened.

A golden light flashed, and the tentacles that were wrapped around the buzz-cut man were instantly severed.

The man with the buzz cut fell heavily to the ground, spitting out another mouthful of blood.

The golden light whirled through the air several times, leaving behind several afterimages, before stopping instantly in front of Wu Bai.

"Clang..."

A metallic clanging sound rang out.

A golden sword struck the tentacles that Wu Bai had just raised, sending sparks flying.

Wu Bai's lips twitched inside the fleshy cocoon.

Why does it keep haunting me?

Shouldn't you be in the hospital right now?

Several tentacles suddenly sprang up, stabbing at Wu Minmin from all directions.

Wu Minmin reacted extremely quickly. With a flick of her wrist, she used the force of the sword to fly backward, barely avoiding the onslaught of the tentacles.

Taking advantage of the opening, Wu Bai didn't hesitate at all. He used one of his tentacles to grab the short-haired man on the ground, stuffed him directly into the cocoon, and then turned and ran.

"Trying to run away?"

Wu Minmin pushed off with her feet, transforming into a golden streak as she chased after him.

However, she had only chased after him for less than two meters when a force of gravity acted on her.

Wu Minmin stumbled and landed on the ground. Her lightsaber pierced the earth, stabilizing her, and she glared at Hyper Zetton, who had already run far away, cursing:

"Damn, it's evolved again." She straightened up, and the lightsaber in her hand turned into specks of golden light and dissipated into the air.

"It seems I need to improve my strength as soon as possible, or I can't let it leave me too far behind."

"I'll go to school tomorrow and ask for a long leave of absence. I'll say my brother broke his leg and needs someone to take care of him."

Having made up her mind, Wu Minmin turned around and rushed towards the hospital in a few leaps.

……

Hospital, inpatient building, room 519.

Holding three boxes of milk, Wu Minmin stood at the door of the ward. She took a deep breath, adjusted her expression, and pushed the door open to go inside.

This is a standard four-person room.

The woman in bed number one lived alone, and there wasn't even anyone to pour her water.

The girl in bed number two was being cared for by her parents.

A pale-faced woman lay on bed number three.

Although time has left its mark on her face, with fine lines around her eyes, it's still clear that she was a great beauty in her youth.

...This is Su Nianzhen's mother.

As for bed number four, it's empty.

Wu Minmin placed the milk on the table.

He picked up one of the boxes and walked to bed number three, his expression instantly becoming obedient and sensible.

She called softly, "Aunt Lin, I've come to see you. Are you feeling better today?"

Su Nianzhen's mother opened her eyes in the hospital bed, saw Wu Minmin, and a faint smile appeared on her pale face.

She coughed weakly twice: "It's Minmin... cough cough... you're here, why did you buy such expensive things?"

"You and your brother have a hard time making ends meet, so don't waste money."

"I heard from our silly girl that you and Xiaobai helped pay for her hospital stay this time. Thank you so much."

Wu Minmin smiled slightly and reached out to tuck the blanket around her: "Aunt Lin, you're too kind. We're all family, it's only right that we help each other out."

"By the way, when did the doctor say the surgery is scheduled?"

Mentioning the surgery, the light in Su Nianzhen's eyes dimmed slightly, and she said sadly:

"There are too many patients ahead of us in line. The doctor said... the earliest we can see them is the day after tomorrow."

"The day after tomorrow..."

Wu Minmin nodded thoughtfully and didn't say anything more.

She turned back to the table and gave the remaining two boxes of milk to the elderly woman living alone and the family with the child, respectively.

"Grandma, uncles and aunts, this is for you to nourish your bodies."

"Could you please look after Aunt Lin for us? Her daughter is still in school, and it's inconvenient for her to travel back and forth."

These days, supplies are scarce, and milk is a rare commodity.

The old lady and her parents were flattered and nodded repeatedly while holding the milk, patting their chests to promise that they would definitely help take care of it.

After doing all this, Wu Minmin sat back down on Su Nianzhen's bedside and quietly looked at "Aunt Lin".

Her eyes were complex, carrying a coldness that seemed out of place for her age.

According to the timeline of the previous life, Aunt Lin was eaten by Hyper Zetton the day after tomorrow.

Although she now has the ability to save them, she doesn't intend to.

Her past life as a deity had made her accustomed to turning all interpersonal relationships into matters of self-interest.

Aside from his own brother, everyone else can be used as a bargaining chip; necessary sacrifices are essential.

Only when Aunt Lin dies will she, the intended sister-in-law, develop a deep-seated hatred for Hyper Zetton.

When the time comes, let her brother take advantage of her vulnerability and helplessness to offer her warmth and support.

On one hand, there is the extreme hatred for Hyper Zetton.

On one hand, she is devoted to her brother.

This is the perfect script she wanted.

In his past life, after Aunt Lin died, his brother kept avoiding her, missing a golden opportunity.

In this life, Wu Minmin is bound to this red thread.
