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

Chapter 16 Misunderstanding, Su Nianzhen's Mother Dies

Four o'clock in the afternoon.

After verifying the information, Wu Bai walked out of the police station.

He wandered aimlessly through the streets for two hours before finally returning to the school gate.

The school bell rang.

As Su Nianzhen walked out of the school gate, she immediately saw Wu Bai and naturally walked up to him and took his arm.

The two chatted as they walked home. When they arrived, Wu Minmin had already heated up the food.

The three of them quickly finished their dinner and then rushed to Hope Hospital with a thermos full of pork rib soup.

Ward 519, Inpatient Department.

The little girl in bed number two has been discharged from the hospital.

In the entire ward, only an elderly woman in the corner and Su Nianzhen's mother, Aunt Lin, remained.

Wu Bai and his sister exchanged a few pleasantries with Aunt Lin and stayed until 7 p.m. before getting up to say goodbye.

Su Nianzhen has already requested a long leave from school and has decided to stay at the hospital tonight to take care of her and wait for the surgery at six o'clock tomorrow morning.

……

It was exactly 9 p.m.

A golden light fell on the rooftop of the high-rise building opposite the inpatient department of Hope Hospital.

As the light faded, Wu Minmin's figure came into view. The cold night wind was strong, making her clothes flutter loudly.

She crossed her arms and looked down at ward 519 below with a blank expression.

At this moment, the ward was brightly lit.

A group of doctors in white coats surrounded the hospital bed, conducting the final preoperative examinations on Su Nianzhen's mother.

A few minutes later, the doctor pushed the equipment away.

Su Nianzhen sat back down on the edge of the bed, holding her mother's hand and speaking softly.

Suddenly, Wu Minmin's gaze shifted slightly on the rooftop.

On the dimly lit exterior wall of the inpatient ward, a strange black shadow was slowly crawling upwards, clinging to the wall.

The creature was about the size of an adult, with long but disproportionate limbs that twisted like a giant arthropod, its suction cups on its hands and feet gripping the brick wall tightly.

It has no facial features, only a huge mouth that splits to the roots of its ears, with countless sharp teeth exposed.

【Calamity Sequence 111, Mimicry Demon Lizard】

When we climbed to between the fourth and fifth floors, the color of the scales on the magic lizard began to change rapidly.

Then its body gradually became transparent until it completely disappeared into the air.

If it weren't for the occasional scrape of plaster falling off the wall by some unseen force, no one would know that a monster was lurking there.

……

In the ward.

Su Nianzhen glanced at the time, picked up the insulated lunchbox from the ground, and stood up.

After giving her mother a few words of advice, she turned and left the ward to go to the water room to prepare the remaining soup and rice.

The moment the ward door clicked shut.

"Squeak..."

The window is open.

In the ward, Aunt Lin struggled to sit up and looked at the empty windowsill with a puzzled expression.

Suddenly, Aunt Lin's pupils contracted to their maximum size.

Without warning, she clutched her neck tightly with both hands, and a large amount of blood gushed out from between her fingers, staining her hospital gown red.

After struggling for a few moments, her body went limp and she fell back onto the bed, silent.

Wu Minmin, high above, watched all of this indifferently.

In her past life, she fought her way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, except for her own brother.

Everyone else can be sacrificed, if necessary, including Su Nianzhen.

After all, she wasn't some saint. In her previous life, she was killed by the human side. It was already a blessing that she didn't join the calamity side in this life.

The reason Hyper Zetton was killed was because the opponent was too strong.

She was confident she could beat anyone else, but not a fully developed Hyper Zetton.

Besides, this is part of history in itself; she is merely an observer and does not interfere.

……

Aunt Lin's abdomen suddenly split open as she ate.

A transparent outline stained red with blood gradually appeared, greedily burying its head in the abdominal cavity and feasting.

The old man in bed number one was so frightened by this scene that he trembled all over.

She covered her mouth in terror, too afraid to make a sound, and desperately reached for the red call bell by the bedside with trembling hands.

My fingertip was just about to touch the button.

The chewing sounds stopped abruptly.

The blood-red silhouette suddenly turned its head and stared intently at the old man.

The next second, it kicked off with its hind legs and pounced directly at the old man.

Wu Minmin looked away, but caught another figure out of the corner of her eye.

In the shadows downstairs, a person dressed in a black robe appeared out of nowhere.

The man in black robes took a few running starts and leaped, stepping on the air conditioner unit outside the wall, and instantly rushed into ward 519.

When Wu Bai saw the horrific scene inside the room, his mind went blank.

He didn't find the calamity during the two hours of daylight.

I was planning to go out and look for it that night, but I didn't expect to feel an aura of disaster in Aunt Lin's hospital room.

But we were still too late.

Extreme anger made him tremble all over.

Its body swelled instantly, bursting through the black robe and revealing Hyper Zetton's true form.

Several tentacles shot out instantly, piercing through the mimicking demon lizard that was gnawing on the old man.

Wu Bai exerted his strength suddenly, his tentacles snapping back, forcefully dragging the calamity, which was still struggling in mid-air, into the cocoon.

[Obtaining Gene Fragments: Mimicry and Invisibility]

[Energy Reserves: 40% - 60% needed to transition into insect form]

After dealing with the disaster, Wu Bai stiffly walked to the bedside.

He trembled as he extended a tentacle, trying his gentlest touch to close Aunt Lin's eyes.

Just then, the door was pushed open.

"Clang..."

The insulated lunchbox in Su Nianzhen's hand fell to the ground.

Wu Bai suddenly raised his head.

At the door of the ward, Su Nianzhen's face was ashen.

She stared intently at the tentacle-covered monster before her, at the tentacle still clinging to her mother's face, and at her mother's mutilated corpse.

Wu Bai opened his mouth, wanting to explain.

"what……"

The heart-wrenching screams pierced the walls and echoed throughout the entire hospital building.

Hurried footsteps echoed down the corridor.

Looking into Su Nianzhen's eyes, filled with fear and hatred, Wu Bai felt as if his heart was being torn apart.

He gritted his teeth, turned around, smashed the windowpane, and disappeared into the vast night.

……

Wu Minmin crossed her arms and witnessed the entire scene.

Then, her body turned into specks of golden light and disappeared on the rooftop.
