S-Class Judge: My ability is parasitism.

"What on earth did you do?" Pighead Boss glared angrily at Xu Nuo inside the house.

"Don't worry, you'll find out soon enough."

The eldest pig looked at the second and third brothers lying in front of him. Their bodies began to convulse violently, their expressions became extremely ferocious, and their bodies were like deflated balloons, wrinkled and even wriggling, as if something wanted to burst out of their bodies.

A cluster of golden threads emerged from their ears, eyes, noses, and mouths, even wriggling as if yearning for blood.

The eldest brother was startled and quickly hid far away. The previously arrogant second and third brothers were already dead beyond dead, leaving only a skin, a pile of bones, and countless filamentous fillers.

"What exactly are you?" The eldest pig hadn't recovered yet, still immersed in the pain of his brother's death.

Ni Shihua watched Xu Nuo slowly sit up, her heart filled with complex emotions:

"Is this why it was rated S-class?"

Parasitism, what a terrifying ability. Since it cannot invade from the outside, it will disintegrate from the inside. As long as it consumes Xu Nuo's flesh and blood, it will trigger a passive ability. The dodder in the flesh and blood will frantically absorb the flesh and blood of the devourer until it is squeezed into a dried corpse.

However, Xu Nuo and Ni Shihua were completely incapacitated at this moment. Once Pighead Boss recovered, the two of them would surely die.

"Captain, he should be here soon, right?" Xu Nuo leaned against the table leg, his chest heaving. He had never felt so tired before.

Fortunately, Gao Shen and his companions eventually found their way here.

"Captain, kill this Awakened One quickly! Xu Nuo is injured, seriously injured!" Ni Shihua shouted almost like a roar.

Gao Shen's limbs instantly transformed into wisteria vines, and his feet became vines that pierced the ground. Then, he emerged from behind the pig-headed boss and tightly wrapped around his legs and torso.

His hands also transformed into vines, controlling his upper body and rendering him unable to move.

"Let me go!" the pig-headed leader roared. "What's the difference between you officials and us? You're the ones who turned us into this. Now you're the ones trying to kill us. You're the real beasts!"

Pan Yuan had only just arrived, and seeing the mess in the courtyard, and then looking at the weakened Ni Shihua, he immediately sensed something was wrong:

"Where's Xiao Xu? Where is he?"

"He's inside! Quick, save him!" Ni Shihua pointed inside the house, while the monkey stayed behind to take care of her.

As soon as he entered the room, Pan Yuan's pupils contracted and his body began to tremble slightly.

He saw Xu Nuo, his flesh mangled and leaning against a table leg, still bleeding from his wounds, now unconscious.

Anger surged into his heart instantly, and when he thought of the two dried corpses on the ground, he understood everything: those two had eaten Xu Nuo's flesh and blood.

"You bastard! You dare touch my brother? I'll fucking kill you! Damn it!"

His body began to swell rapidly, his skin hardened, and ironwood tissue surged throughout his body, rushing directly towards the trapped pig's head.

"Captain, take your wisteria back, I'm going to take him down."

Under Pan Yuan's furious attack, this wild boar gene donor, despite its thick skin and tough flesh, was utterly powerless to resist.

Pan Yuan straddled him and beat him mercilessly until he was knocked back into human form and passed out. This guy really turned into a pig's head.

Pan Yuan was not discouraged and showed no sign of stopping his work.

One of them used too much force and smashed his head open, splattering brain matter all over his face.

"That's enough, Panzi! The man is already dead." Gao Shen interrupted, saying that was enough, the most urgent thing was to save Xu Nuo.

Pan Yuan slowly got up and kicked his body:

"Pah! Scum!"

Only then did he go inside to pick up Xu Nuo, while the others dealt with the scene and waited for the police to handle the aftermath.

"Xiao Xu! Xiao Xu! Wake up, are you still breathing? I'll take you to the hospital."

Xu Nuo slowly opened his eyes:

"Brother Pan, you've finally arrived."

"Alright, alright, stop talking. It's easy to deal with your anger now. Don't talk, I'll take you to the hospital."

"No need, just take me there." Xu Nuo pointed to the two corpses that were parasitized by dodder.

The dodder seeds inside the corpse were still wriggling and had not lost their activity.

Pan Yuan helped Xu Nuo to the corpse. Xu Nuo released the dodder seeds inside her body and connected them with the dodder seeds inside the corpse.

The dodder inside the corpse gradually lost its vitality, channeling all its nutrients into Xu Nuo's body, causing his flesh and blood to grow wildly and gradually recover.

However, his face was still somewhat pale and lacked vitality.

"Huh? This..." Pan Yuan was stunned.

"As expected of an S-rank." Everyone exclaimed in unison.

The police arrived and began preparing for the handover:

"That's it for today! Back to the station!"

Inside the tribunal, everyone ate fish balls and spoke freely.

"I'm sorry, Xu Nuo, if I hadn't thrown a tantrum, you wouldn't have been..."

"It's alright, Sister Ni. You're a senior, so it's only right that we listen to you."

"Do I look that old? Don't call me 'sister'! We're about the same age."

"Um, okay, then I'll just call you by your name."

"Xiao Xu, you played a key role in these two cases recently. It's almost the end of the month, and you're injured. Go back and rest well. I'll give you paid leave, and your salary will be transferred to your account later."

"That's great, Captain! I really need to thank you properly."

"No need, it's all what I should do. Everyone has seen the effort you've put in."

"That's right, Xiao Xu. If anyone else got this kind of treatment, I, Hou Hao, would be the first to confront them. But you, I really have nothing to say. You really step up when there's trouble."

Gao Shen then looked at Xu Nuo's tattered clothes:

"Xiao Xu, you should get yourself a few more outfits."

"Hehe, I'm a bit short on cash, so I didn't have time, and the clothes are still wearable."

"I'm not looking down on you. We know you've had a tough time. You were all alone, joined the army after university, and went through all this. It must have been a difficult journey, right?" Gao Shen said softly.

"Captain, I..." For so many years, Xu Nuo had endured everything alone. How could it be easy? At this moment, his emotions seemed to have found an outlet, and tears welled up in his eyes. All the grievances he had suffered over the years were comforted.

"I'm thinking that from now on, your meal allowance and work clothing wear and tear will be reimbursed by your company, which will give you an extra 3000 yuan a month. It will be covered by the organization."

"Thank you, Captain!" Xu Nuo bowed deeply.

"Alright, alright, you're all grown up now, stop crying. From today onwards, Pan Yuan, I'm your brother. If you need anything, just come to me. The captain is really something, always having to put on this sentimental act." Pan Yuan patted Xu Nuo on the back, pulled him into his arms, offered him some comfort, and tried to bring them closer.

"No matter what, thank you everyone!" Xu Nuo wiped away her tears and smiled again. She felt lucky to have met so many loyal colleagues at work.
