The system is four years ahead of schedule, but Weird is still a cub.

"I can't... retreat."

Even though Statham's heart was filled with despair, he knew that he must not retreat. Once he retreated, the people behind him would completely become food for these monsters.

"Warriors, follow me!"

Statham shouted and rushed to the front with the strange energy knife in hand.

His skin began to carbonize under the influence of the ghost-strengthening potion, but the ghost-energy knife in his hand still accurately cut off three vine tentacles that tried to chase the citizens.

"I, Statham, will never be able to devour another person unless I fall!" Statham sneered and took out a tube of dark red potion from his waist.

"Come and try this!"

Although the latest type of strange energy inhibitor developed by Professor Martin is still in the experimental stage, Statham can no longer care about it.

Statham's strange energy blade, wrapped in high-frequency vibrating strange energy, split the medicine bottle, and the potion containing powerful will effect was instantly sprinkled to the group of spider strange kings in front.

The first few spider kings began to twitch silently after being touched by the potion. The twisted human faces on their bodies became even more hideous and distorted, and one could even see a feeling of "fear"!

The new strange energy inhibitor is effective!
"Right now, concentrate your artillery fire and cover the central square!" Statham shouted while holding the communicator. He didn't care whether the message could be passed on or not, and he didn't care whether they were still within the range of the central square. As long as he could stop these monsters completely, he would not hesitate at all, even if it meant death!

Fortunately, the spider kings are all huge in size, and they become a natural "barrier" for the ghost warriors. While they are bombarded by artillery fire, they are also being attacked by the ghost warriors from below.

The counterattack started at this moment. It was a counterattack that completely disregarded casualties. The priority was to block the weirdness in the central square and buy time for the citizens to retreat!

The roof of the shopping mall collapsed, the human faces on the monsters' irises collectively screamed and exploded, and the surrounding Spider Kings became even more manic!

After Statham and his companions withstood the first wave of attacks from the Spider King, Statham was bleeding from all seven orifices. He staggered and held onto the remaining wall, and found that the surviving citizens not far behind him were looking at him with a mixture of awe and fear. Suddenly, a boy wearing glasses pointed at his back and screamed -

"Hero, hero! Watch out!"

Under the tear in Statham's combat uniform, the carbonized skin was falling off, revealing the black blood vessels underneath that were corroded by strange energy.

"Don't touch me!" He shouted at the soldier who wanted to help him, and turned around to look at the scene that shocked the little boy. In the distance, the outer skin of the huge "meat mountain" was falling off, as if some huge monster was about to be "born" from it.

At this moment, there was a sudden thunder-like vibration from underground. Statham turned his head sharply and saw with horror that the citizens at the subway station entrance had blue light under their skin and their pupils were turning pure black.

"Oh no, it's the erosion of strange energy!"

Statham roared and threw the last three doses of Strange Energy Inhibitor, but he watched helplessly as the bottles were frozen in mid-air by an invisible force.

The citizens who had just been evacuated from the subway station had their pupils shrunk to the size of pinpoints and their mouths stretched from ear to ear. The mother holding the baby tore open the swaddling clothes with her fingernails, and the baby's belly button suddenly split open, revealing disgusting tentacles covered in mucus.

The citizens that Statham risked his life to protect, including the little boy with glasses who reminded him that there was a monster behind him, were all corrupted by the strange energy and turned into monsters!

"... Fire, fire!" The commander of the anti-ghost troops on the scene screamed and pulled the trigger, but the ghost energy bullets were distorted by the invisible force field before they hit the citizens.

The boy with glasses floated in the air, his spine pierced through his school uniform and grew, the ends of which connected to the cervical vertebrae of other citizens, forming a horrific shape like a human centipede in the blink of an eye.

Statham's weird sword trembled in his hand. He could clearly feel the painful cries of every citizen who was controlled.

He thought he could save these people, but all his efforts were in vain. Statham was unwilling to accept this. Why, why couldn't he do it!
Every mouth of the human centipede was speaking, and its deep, hoarse voice echoed over the city: "You will eventually become...food!"

What they said was exactly the same as what Elvis had said at the beginning. In the mine, those traitors who used drugs to undergo rapid alienation also said the same things.

Although Statham didn't understand what this meant, perhaps this was the real "purpose" of the Monster Organization, to use all of humanity as nourishment and cultivate the true Monster King?

"We won't just stand here and let you feast on us!" Statham wiped the blood from his nose and sneered. His skin was turning into a monster and his human cells were collapsing.

The basis of the weird strengthening potion is also "weird energy", which is even more ferocious than the weird energy erosion caused by the transplantation of weird cells in the Monster Project.

This kind of medicine was actually also developed by the Great Celestial Empire, but there was almost no possibility of survival after using it, so it was urgently stopped by the Special Measures Department and the relevant research materials were destroyed.

But those who understand know that many things, including "human experiments", are said to be banned and destroyed, but no one knows whether they are being researched in secret.

As for how the research data fell into the hands of the United States, that is even more intriguing.

The humanoid centipede let out a strange roar, and all the mutated citizens pounced on Statham and other anti-monster warriors at the same time, and at this time, no one retreated!

boom--

boom--

boom!
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the direction of the "Meat Mountain" in the distance.

Amid the flesh and skin that fell off the "meat mountain", a red figure broke through its body and flew into the air, finally hovering in the air.

That was Shen Ge!

After the "meat mountain" collapsed, Shen Ge was buried in disgusting flesh and blood.

If it were an ordinary person, facing such a terrifying fusion of flesh and blood, and the erosion of strange energy exceeding the sixth level, he would probably become a part of the flesh and blood in an instant.

But Shen Ge is different. He himself is at the sixth level in strength, and the outer layer is covered with the Red Mist Armor. Even if the Red Mist Armor cannot withstand the erosion of the strange energy of the "Meat Mountain", the Red Mist Armor has the blessing of the "Endless" characteristic and can be repaired efficiently.

It is estimated that the "Meat Mountain" itself did not expect that it would swallow such a tough bone. Shen Ge even used the power of "collapse" to constantly shuttle through its body, trying to find the "heart".

This was not the first time that Shen Ge entered the body of a fusion monster. Theoretically, he was already familiar with it and knew how to find the heart effectively.

But he unexpectedly discovered that when he used various special abilities to avoid the parasitic weirdness inside the "Meat Mountain", the weird black fog in the "Meat Mountain" tried to imitate his special abilities, and succeeded! Although the imitation ability cannot be maintained for too long and will consume a lot of weird energy, the "flesh body" is equivalent to a nuclear power plant, and the parasitic weirdness in it is a civilian family with normal electricity consumption. How could this possibly exhaust the power generation of the nuclear power plant?
So Shen Ge encountered a large number of spiders with human faces inside the "Meat Mountain". They could display special effects such as "silent" and "invisible" for a short period of time, although this effect could only last for a very short period of time and was very different from the real special abilities.

For example, Shen Ge’s “silence” can make all his actions “silent”, and even affect the things and space around him.

The spider's strange "silence" can only make the surrounding sounds disappear on the surface, but it does not affect the sound pattern and frequency. This is a phenomenon that is difficult to describe in words, as if it is clearly there, but you can't feel it.

Even though this imitated "characteristic" has major flaws and is extremely deadly to ordinary people, it poses no threat to Shen Ge at all.

Moreover, Shen Ge's characteristic "Silent" can change the frequency of sound, which can be said to be the nemesis of this imitation ability to a certain extent.

Because the spider's strange "silent" sound waves are still there, but they are "blocked" by the strange energy black fog, Shen Ge only needs to strengthen the effect of the sound waves, and even cause a "sonic explosion" effect on the spider.

Just like that, the strange army of spiders that were originally as densely packed as an ant nest were all killed instantly by the "Silent Strange Domain" deployed by Shen Ge!

It can be said that he came with great fanfare, but died without dignity!

Then the spider's ability to copy the "invisible" characteristic is even more ridiculous. It is said to be invisible, but in fact it is just a light deviation, a "cheap ninjutsu" like holding a mirror or wall cloth. Although it is not easy to see through at a glance, it is not too difficult either.

Shen Ge didn't need to do anything at all. With the help of Xiao Qi's control of the red mist armor, Shen Ge successfully killed his way into the depths of the "Meat Mountain" and found the heart.

At least thousands of spiders died in Shen Ge's mouth along the way, and these spiders were the Spider Kings that Statham and others had to try their best to barely defeat.

It is called the "Spider Ghost King", but in fact, the most powerful one at the beginning is only at the fifth level in strength. Later, the Spider Ghost Kings that were hatched in batches were mostly at the fourth level.

To Shen Ge, they are like ants, but to Statham and others, they are opponents that they need to try their best, even at the cost of their lives, to defeat.

When Shen Ge found the heart chamber of the "Meat Mountain", the other party realized that he had swallowed something indigestible and wanted to spit Shen Ge out.

But as the saying goes, "It's easier to invite a god than to send him away." After swallowing Shen Ge, asking him to get out is not much easier than killing him.

Shen Ge used the ghost-killing revolver and the butcher knife "Indestructible" to destroy the heart, and finally detonated a high-explosive ghost energy bomb in the heart chamber.

So the previous scene happened, the body of the "Meat Mountain" began to collapse, Shen Ge was protected by the red mist armor, and rushed into the sky from the inside.

Shen Ge stood in the air and discovered a humanoid centipede fighting with the anti-ghost troops in the distance. Just as he was considering whether to go to support it, the collapsing "meat mountain" of flesh and blood behind him suddenly "shrank back" into the abyss where the city center had collapsed before.

"It wants to run away?" Shen Ge didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, the "Meat Mountain" had shrunk most of its body. When he was about to take action, the strange black fog in the city quickly gathered towards the abyss, completely blocking the huge mouth and forming a "black hole" of strange black fog.

Shen Ge didn’t know what this “black hole” was, and he didn’t dare to rush in rashly. He didn’t want to disappear for another three years “for no reason”.

So Shen Ge turned around and flew towards the direction of the humanoid centipede. The red mist armor extended hundreds of blood lines to tie up the humanoid centipede and tore it into pieces.

The fifth-level monster that everyone had been fighting against was shattered by Shen Ge in one blow!
At that moment, he was like the sun, illuminating the crowd shrouded in darkness.

Shen Ge ignored the thanks and cheers from the surviving survivors. He noticed that Mark and others were surrounding a "person" who no longer looked like a human.

Statham's body was collapsing, only half of his face was left, and his determined eyes were gradually becoming blurred.

He noticed Shen Ge coming and opened his mouth as if he wanted to smile, but the mouth that had begun to mutate became hideous and terrifying.

"I'm still not as good as... you."

Shen Ge roughly understood why Statham became what he is now through the information compiled by Xiao Qi. He smiled peacefully and said, "You are a real hero, Statham."

"Really? It's my honor...to get your recognition." Statham smiled and closed his eyes. Even though that smile was hideous and terrifying, everyone felt regretful.

Just as Shen Ge said, he is a true hero.

Regardless of his actions and his heart, whether or not Statham wanted to surpass Shen Ge, he stood in front of the citizens until his death, burning his life to stop the strange footsteps.

When the last human-faced spider was turned into meat by the artillery fire, the hands of the city clock tower pointed to 12 o'clock.

The strange black fog that filled the sky dissipated, and the sun's light shone again over the city. Except for the huge black hole vortex in the city center, the whole city returned to its former tranquility.

"East District purification completed!"

"Survivors found on the west side, evacuating!"

Reports on the ghost warriors came one after another on the communication channel. Shen Ge looked at the warm sky. The escape of "Meat Mountain" made him realize that things were not that simple.

Even the heart was destroyed and the heart chambers were blown away, but this "mountain of flesh" was still able to burrow into the ground right under his nose...

Could it be that the Monster Organization has really found a way to deal with the "heart" weakness?
If this is the case, then in the future, high-level weird and fusion monsters will no longer be able to kill them by entering their bodies and destroying their hearts!

In the square, engineers from the International Anti-Ghost Organization are setting up anti-ghost energy resonance towers. Purification devices developed by Rong City are flowing on the surface of these silver-white columns, converting the remaining ghost energy black fog in the city into usable energy.

Citizens wearing protective masks lined up in long queues, waiting to be injected with the inhibitor developed by Professor Martin's team. The light blue liquid contained antibody cells suspended in it that could resist the erosion of strange energy.

"Captain Shen Ge, thank you. Without your full support, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to rescue so many citizens." The mayor and his team came to thank Shen Ge.

Shen Ge glanced at him indifferently with cold eyes, which made the mayor shudder, as if a devil had strangled his throat, and he swallowed back the second half of his compliment.

"Mayor... Sir? I'd really like to know what you think about the mines under the Grand Canyon dozens of kilometers away?" Shen Ge asked.

The mayor was sweating profusely and asked nervously, "W-what, a mine?"

Shen Gege flipped his hand and a projection screen appeared on his palm. On it was a record of the event of the cooperation between the mayor and the mining company: "I'll give you 30 seconds. Remember to make up a better story." (End of this chapter)
