At the same moment, Li Yu rushed forward, and just as he was about to swing the crowbar, the image of the parasitic monkey moving in his right eye suddenly slowed down.

Li Yu knew that the special ability of the right eye had been activated.

He didn't know the principle behind this ability, but he could guess that it was the special ability of the "pupil fungus" that was parasitizing his right eye.

As the scene before him slowed down, everything around him seemed to blur and fade, but the parasitic monkey that had just attacked and scratched Lin Muying became clearer and clearer, including every detail of it, and even the tip of one of its fangs in its open mouth, where a drop of saliva was about to drip down, was clearly visible.

These parasitic monkeys are far more agile than parasitic dogs. Their attacks are difficult to land, and even if they do, the monkeys know to move in the direction of the attack, thus dissipating most of the force. The remaining force is unlikely to cause them any harm.

Just now, he seemed to have knocked the parasitic monkey off its feet with a single blow, but in reality, the parasitic monkey had deliberately flipped in the direction the stick had come from, so it only felt pain but wasn't actually injured.

All these thoughts flashed through Li Yu's mind in an instant. In his right eye, the head of the parasitic monkey in front of him became incredibly clear and then became the center of the image.

He locked onto the parasitic monkey's head; that was his target.

Almost instantly, the crowbar, gripped tightly in both hands, slammed down from the air.

With a crisp "crack," no one knew what had happened, but the curved end of the crowbar held by Li Yu's hands slammed into the parasitic monkey's skull like a hammer.

The force of the impact was unimaginable. The top of the parasitic monkey's head shattered instantly, and red and white substances splattered out. Under the immense pressure, the monkey's two eyes burst out of their sockets, with dark red mycelium still attached to the back of each eyeball.

Lin Muying, who was injured and stumbled backward, looked astonished. She didn't see what happened clearly. She only saw the parasitic monkey in front of her grab her with one claw, and then a crowbar suddenly fell on her head. After that, it started to crack from the top of her head downward.

She knew that Li Yu had made his move, but she couldn't fathom why the crowbar he swung was so fast and so precise.

It's important to know that these parasitic monkeys are extremely agile, making it virtually impossible to accurately hit them on the top of the head.

But Li Yu did it.

The force of that blow was immense. Seeing the parasitic monkey, whose brain had been smashed out, fall heavily to the ground and become motionless instantly, Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Then he saw that the other three parasitic monkeys had already rushed up. One pounced on Zhou Xigang, one chased after Yu Xiang and Jiang Yan who were fleeing, and the last one, the one he had just knocked over with one blow, was coming towards him.

The parasitic monkey that pounced on Li Yu didn't expect him to suddenly become so ferocious. It actually brought down a stick and instantly killed one of its own companions. It was clearly frightened and suddenly stopped, which was originally going to pounce on Li Yu.

Li Yu seized the opportunity and swung upwards, bringing the crowbar in his hand down in mid-air. Unfortunately, this time the special ability in his right eye failed to activate, and the parasitic monkey shrank sideways, narrowly avoiding the attack.

Li Yu used too much force with this blow, slamming it into the ground. The recoil caused his arms to feel slightly numb.

At the same moment, another parasitic monkey pounced on Zhou Xigang. Zhou Xigang missed with his fire axe and was hit by the parasitic monkey. It was very strong and Zhou Xigang was thrown backward. Its claws scratched his face, leaving several deep bloody grooves. Zhou Xigang screamed in pain.

The jacket he had been holding, which was wrapped around mushrooms, was thrown aside.

Yu Xiang and Jiang Yan fled towards the alleyway. Jiang Yan's left leg was injured, so she was not as fast as Yu Xiang and fell behind him. A parasitic monkey caught up with her, grabbed one of Jiang Yan's legs with its claws, and dragged her away. With a scream from Jiang Yan, she fell heavily to the ground.

The parasitic monkey lunged again, pinning her down, its gaping maw snapping open to bite at her exposed neck.

Yu Xiang, who was the fastest to escape, had already reached the entrance of the alley. Hearing Jiang Yan scream behind him, he rushed into the alley while turning his head to look in Jiang Yan's direction, his face full of terror.

Suddenly, a dark figure rushed out from the alleyway ahead.

This dark shadow is also a monkey parasitized by a mushroom, but it is somewhat different from the four parasitic monkeys that appeared before.

Not only are its back and arms covered with a large number of mushrooms the size of fingernails, but most strikingly, half of its head is missing, replaced by a large number of dense, dark red mycelium.

These mycelia, varying in thickness, are now intertwined, forming a bizarre shape resembling brain matter.

When it suddenly burst out of the alleyway, dark red mycelium, about the thickness of a baby's finger, was faintly visible on the surface of its legs used for running, as if dark red blood was flowing inside, making it look indescribably eerie.

Yu Xiang had no time to react and was hit squarely in the face.

With a loud "boom," Yu Xiang suddenly let out a scream. The force of the parasitic monkey's impact was immense, sending Yu Xiang flying backward through the air before crashing heavily to the ground. He coughed up a mouthful of blood.

With a "whoosh," the parasitic monkey with its mycelium-covered head suddenly leaped into the air, then landed on Yu Xiang's chest as he fell to the ground. One of its claws reached out and grabbed Yu Xiang's face.

Yu Xiang, who had just fallen to the ground, suddenly let out an extremely shrill scream.

The parasitic monkey gouged out both of his eyeballs with its claws, tearing off large chunks of skin and flesh from his face along with them.

Yu Xiang's face instantly turned into a bloody mess, exposing his white bones.

Its other paw gripped Yu Xiang's neck. Dark red fungal hyphae protruded from the skin on its furry palm. With a crisp "crack," Yu Xiang's screams came to an abrupt halt as all the bones in his neck shattered.

On the other side, Zhou Xigang's face was scratched by the parasitic monkey. He felt a burning pain on his face. The parasitic monkey was extremely fast. It opened its blood-red mouth and bit his neck, trying to tear his throat open.

In the face of life and death, Zhou Xigang suddenly felt the muscles in his right leg twitching, and as if possessed, he raised his leg and kicked out fiercely.

The parasitic monkey that had pounced on him was kicked and sent flying into the air. Its fangs left two rows of bloody grooves on Zhou Xigang's neck, but it failed to tear open his throat.

Zhou Xigang was still in shock; he hadn't expected his kick to have such force.

Lin Muying rushed forward almost simultaneously, gripping the fire axe in both hands, and swung it at the parasitic monkey that Zhou Xigang had kicked away in mid-air.
