The fairy maid cheers for her deceased master today.

As Elena stepped back from X, X subconsciously touched his lips—the soft touch still lingered on them, carrying the crispness of lime after the rain and the sweet scent of wild roses, and like an electric current running through him, making his lips and fingertips tingle slightly.

The corpse still has such strong feelings? It's probably the contract's connection taking effect. X speculated.

It felt so wonderful, so wonderful that he temporarily forgot he was in danger. He wanted another bite.

However, X's attention quickly returned to his palm.

A faint green light was shimmering in his palm—he had gained a new ability called "Parasitic Bullet".

As the name suggests, this is a type of magic that can summon parasitic seeds.

More importantly, these seeds not only resemble bullets in shape, but they can also perfectly replace the function of bullets, being smoothly fired from a revolver. Except for not being made of silver, they are virtually omnipotent.

In other words, X has regained the confidence to have "unlimited bullets"—after all, he had very few silver bullets left.

All I can say is that magic is really useful.

Then... time resumed its flow. The world's pause ended.

Jack was frowning and scanning his surroundings, his nostrils twitching as if trying to detect any unusual scents lingering in the air.

A cold smile curled at the corner of X's lips as he bent down to pick up the nearly extinguished kerosene lamp. The flickering flame of the wick made the light in his eyes appear particularly lively.

He hung the lamp back on his waist, his fingers lightly stroking the revolver's cylinder—with a "click," all the empty magazines were instantly filled with green magic bullets, so efficient it was terrifying.

Jack finally looked at him, his voice filled with doubt: "What did you just do?"

Jack had a feeling that something had happened just a moment ago.

As expected of a different species, with beast-like instincts.

X just laughed: "I didn't do anything, but I know one thing—you're really done for."

"How arrogant!"

Jack's sinister grin was like a poisoned knife, his claws making a sharp, whistling sound as he pounced on her almost instantly!

But this time, he couldn't break through as easily as before.

The contract can unleash the power of fairies.

After signing the contract, Elena's level and abilities increased significantly, and her vine magic became exceptionally powerful.

With Angel's ice wall added to the mix... the two barriers intertwined to form an impenetrable net. Jack's claws struck at it, making a crisp "crackling" sound, but he could never get even half a step closer.

With his actions thwarted, Jack grew increasingly irritable. He wildly swung his claws, finally tearing the barrier to shreds—but X had already set his sights on him!

"Bang!"

The green parasitic bullet shot out like lightning. Jack tried the same trick again, slashing at the bullet with his claws, but the seed spun strangely in mid-air and "poof" burrowed into his arm!

What?

Jack froze, looking down: the seed was wriggling under his skin, and green tendrils spread along his veins, bringing an intense itch and numbness.

"What is this?!" He instinctively reached out to pull it out, but then two more gunshots rang out—"Bang! Bang!"

X seized the opportunity to fire several shots. Jack couldn't dodge in time and was hit by several more parasitic bullets.

"What exactly did you do?!"

Jack roared, his voice tinged with unease for the first time.

But he knew that X wouldn't answer, so he slammed against the wall and used the rebound to perform a "super jump"—a technique that could bring teleportation-like speed!

But just as he jumped, he suddenly lost his balance, like a kite with a broken string, he brushed past Ex and crashed heavily into the wall!

Ex almost thought he had been seriously injured again.

But at this moment, he still pretended that everything was as expected and smiled:

"How was it? The parasitic bullet's toxin was potent, wasn't it?"

This is the first effect of the parasitic bullet: the parasitic toxin will cause the target to lose their balance. In short, it has a low probability of interfering with the enemy's movements.

Jack struggled to his feet, flapping his wings to push aside the debris on the ground. He coldly pulled the bullets from his body: "Is that all you've got? Pull out the bullets and I'll be back to normal, right?"

The toxins are still there.

X narrowed his eyes. Three layers of poison.

"Let's give it a try." AX's hand slid across the pistol cylinder, reloading it with seed bullets. "Don't forget, I'm not alone! Elena, Angel—let's go together!"

The battle started again.

The evolved Elena was a bit too much for Jack to handle: her vines were like giant, living pythons, frantically coiling around him. And Jack instinctively tried to avoid them—he had a feeling that these vines would burrow into his body like parasitic bullets.

This is the deterrent effect of parasitic bullets.

However, there are always parasitic bullets that cannot be avoided.

Four layers of toxins...

"Parasitism... I see!"

Jack gradually realized the power of the toxin and began to ignore it and attack relentlessly.

It is indeed effective.

Several times when Jack broke through the barrier, it was X who stood in front of the fairy, using his immortal (already dead) body to withstand the attack.

Irene felt a pang of heartache: "Master! Even if your body can recover quickly, you can't use it like this!"

After signing the master-servant contract, the master blurted it out. Of course, there was no need for Ex to explain the matter of immortality—everything was clear from the scene.

Ex, however, didn't care. He just watched the "life extension time" on the system panel drop rapidly and sighed inwardly: The living energy is being consumed too quickly. He needs to collect more as soon as he gets out...

However, this time, I also understand even more the powerful uses of living and dead energy.

After several rounds, just as the seventh layer of poison was about to be formed, Jack suddenly sneered, "So this is all you've got?"

It felt that it had seen through X's trick.

"What are you trying to say?"

"I want to say—you're finished!"

Suddenly, two large bulges appeared on Jack's back, his skin stretched until it shone, and with a "rip," it tore open, revealing a pair of jet-black wings! The feathers were as sharp as blades, and the wind they stirred up when they flapped carried the smell of blood.

It has two pairs of wings now.

Jack looked down at his new wings and burst into laughter: "I'm stronger again! Hahahaha!"

This terrifying ability to evolve.

This terrifying alien species.

And its appearance is very demonic. No wonder the Holy Path Society is in charge of fighting against the aliens. So this is their original profession.

But at that moment, X also smiled. He put away his revolver and instead walked step by step toward Jack.

Jack was taken aback.

Then, with a sinister grin, he raised his claws: "Interesting. So you've given up resisting and are ready to die?"

"No, it's time." Ex's voice was eerily calm.

The next second, Jack's body suddenly froze! His eyes widened like saucers, and he made a strange "hoarse" sound in his throat, but he couldn't move a single finger.

"You think the parasitic bullets only have mild toxicity?"

Ex approached, his voice laced with mockery.

"After accumulating enough toxins, wait for a while, and the paralysis effect will be triggered—the time is estimated to be short, but enough."

He grabbed Jack's chin like a chick and took out a flash-infused block from his pocket with his right hand.

Angel had already received the new exchanged thoughts, so she cooperated by taking down the kerosene lamp, opening the lampshade, and letting the flame ignite the flammable material.

The instant it was lit, X shoved the incendiary block into Jack's wide-open mouth.

"Goodbye, Jack." X's smile held a sense of cathartic satisfaction. "Oh wait, you might not die? Then let's not see each other again—the further away the better."

The blinding white light was like the sun exploding right in front of me!

Moreover, the light slid directly into Jack's throat and burst forth inside his body.

Jack's body was instantly engulfed; his hair, skin, and bones turned to ashes in the bright light, before he could even let out a scream.

It's over, it's all over.

X turned to look at Elena and Angel, a tired but radiant smile on his face:

"It's over, we won."

Ex opened his arms.

Then Irene rushed over and hugged him, her tears soaking his shoulder; Angel also rushed over, her face filled with the excitement of surviving a disaster.

Then she looked at Elena with confusion. Did Elena just call her master "master"?
