Ever since the battle ended yesterday, he had immediately mobilized a large force from the Demonkin Association and rushed to this location at maximum speed.
Once again, that human youth appeared in his mind.
That fellow who could fuse the advanced biological weapons he developed into his own body.
"I hope you haven't run away."
He narrowed his eyes, his expression cold.
"Otherwise, that would really take away much of the fun!"
He already had follow-up plans.
This time, try to capture him alive, then bring him to his laboratory for dissection, to thoroughly study that human's unique characteristics.
Perhaps with this sample, he could achieve major breakthroughs in the Demonkin Association's subsequent development of advanced biological weapons.
And for insurance.This time he even used his authority to mobilize two Flesh Puppet Type 3 units at once.
Plus a large number of Hunters.
With this level of configuration, even monarch-level existences would have to obediently detour around them.
This time he had absolute confidence.
A cold smile appeared on his face.
"You should feel honored that I, the Vice President, have come personally to deal with you. Your death won't be too unjust!"
"Move out!"
With gloomy eyes, he led the large group of Hunters and flesh puppets into Wandering Souls Alley.
Meanwhile.
In the backyard, Lynn was happily using a towel to wipe Little One's face when a system notification suddenly sounded in his ears.
[Ding! You have triggered a special mission: Keep the Body Intact. Mission introduction: Try your best to survive. If you can't survive, try your best to keep your corpse relatively intact.]
[Mission reward: 5 Black Skull Coins, base experience: 3000, special reward x1]
[Keep Body Intact reward: 50 Black Skull Coin spirit money, titanium alloy coffin x1, funeral wreaths x5, decent suit x1]
Buzz—
Lynn's movements instantly froze in place.
But he quickly recovered, his expression rapidly returning to calm.
A mission triggered?!
It seemed just as he guessed—after two failed hunting attempts, the Demonkin Association had finally decided to send stronger existences to deal with him!
And since the system had already issued a mission, that meant this crisis was already imminent!
And this mission...
It's a bit ridiculously absurd!
Has the mission completion standard been lowered to this extent?!
His mind instantly conjured an image of himself wearing a decent suit, holding flowers, peacefully lying in a titanium alloy coffin—the respectable version of himself—with spirit money flying outside and funeral wreaths floating about...
The entire process had already been arranged!
Lynn gritted his teeth instantly, his expression serious.
But fortunately.
Thankfully he had cleverly written a letter to invite Little One over last night. Although it was somewhat regrettable that his teacher hadn't returned, it was already pretty close.
"Little One, are you hungry?"
Lynn turned around, looking seriously at Little One who was being scrubbed clean beside him.
Little One (✪ω✪) said: "Is it a feast—haven't eaten anything—for three days—"
Lynn seriously gave a thumbs up, smiling:
"Don't worry, the takeout I ordered has arrived. It's definitely a feast among feasts—this time I guarantee you'll eat until you're completely full!"
Wandering Souls Alley, street outside the potion shop.
Billowing black mist continuously rolled away to both sides as Mechanus walked out step by step from the black mist with gloomy eyes.
Behind him were two massive flesh puppets and countless Hunters.
"Halt!"
He suddenly raised his hand, stopping the large force behind him.
His gaze instantly fell upon the youth slowly emerging at the front of the street.
Dressed in linen clothes, arms crossed, a slight curve on his face, a mysterious smile in his eyes—Lynn stood there quietly watching them.
Mechanus instantly narrowed his eyes.
He recognized that youth almost immediately as the guy who had destroyed one of his Hunters last night.
He actually really hadn't run away?!
And he was just standing there so boldly?
What the hell is this situation?
"Welcome, everyone. I've been waiting for you for quite some time."
Lynn smiled as he bowed, performing a very gentlemanly salute toward Mechanus's large force, adjusting his monocle.
That utterly wicked style immediately came through.
Meanwhile, in the Sight.
[Intelligence Agent: Latest intelligence from Wandering Souls Alley! Warning! Current danger level in Wandering Souls Alley elevated to maximum. Aside from root-level beings, large numbers of top-tier biological puppets have appeared again in Wandering Souls Alley. The arrivals are suspected to belong to advanced creations of the Demonkin Association. Click to view, cost: 100 Skeleton Coins]
The numerous residents from surrounding areas who didn't dare go out but were waiting in the Sight were immediately attracted by this new message.
Almost instantly, the number of people clicking in exceeded two thousand!
In the scene, as the black mist slowly receded, the image of the two sides facing off right in front of the Bloodsaw Potion Shop's main entrance immediately appeared before all viewers.
Upon seeing that scene, all viewers were shocked.
"Demonkin Association! That's right! I recognize the symbols on them! Those are all biological weapons belonging to the Demonkin Association!"
In the scene, as the black mist slowly receded, the image of the two sides facing off right in front of the Bloodsaw Potion Shop's main entrance immediately appeared before all viewers.
"Did you forget? In those two big battles last night and the night before, one of the participating sides was those biological puppets from the Demonkin Association!"
The viewers were horrified by the dense crowd of Hunters in the scene.
Then.
Their gazes fell upon Lynn, who stood facing those Hunters with a smile on his face.
The viewers were horrified by the dense crowd of Hunters in the scene.
"What is he doing?! Trying to stop a chariot with his arm like a mantis? Isn't this somewhat overestimating his capabilities?!"
"Did you forget?! One of the participants in last night's battle was that potion shop apprentice! Obviously the Demonkin Association is here for him this time!"
"No way! Does he really think he alone can deal with this entire biological army? What kind of joke is this!"
"But for some reason, he looks so handsome standing there!"
"Handsome +1"
The viewers in the Sight were discussing with shock and excitement.
Outside Wandering Souls Alley, behind that broken hill, the massive Titan Head used tentacles to hold binoculars, watching the standoff currently happening on Wandering Souls Alley's street from afar.
The Unicorn Ghost King peered into the distance and said: "They seem to be biological weapons from the Demonkin Association. Quite a large scale, and it looks like they're specifically here to trouble that human kid."
He was just about to ponder.
But at that moment, he suddenly froze.
Wait.
Could it be that human kid tricked Little One into going there to deal with these Demonkin Association weapons?
Could it be that the so-called feast mentioned in his letter was actually...
Without another word, he immediately urgently took out his binoculars and searched throughout Wandering Souls Alley for Little One's figure.
And in the next moment, he immediately saw Little One currently lying in the potion shop's backyard, curiously revealing a pair of huge eyes, peeking at those Hunters on the street.
Seeing the drool dripping from the corner of her mouth and her (✪ω✪) sparkling eyes that could barely restrain the desire to eat.
"Slurp—slurp—"
The sounds of swallowing saliva and licking lips.
And in the next moment, he immediately saw Little One currently lying in the potion shop's backyard, curiously revealing a pair of huge eyes, peeking at those Hunters on the street.
"Re...really..."
