Suddenly, she stopped abruptly in her tracks.

Not far ahead, around the corner, on the floor lay a mixture of dark reddish-brown, somewhat dried, viscous excrement and blood, upon which stood a slightly abstract statue.

The statue had a huge head, short and thick limbs, and its face was painted with crude patterns resembling eyes and mouths.

Although Asahina Nazuna didn't recognize Peanut, the filth under its feet made it clear that this was no inanimate object.

She stared at the comical paint eyes for a full ten seconds.

After confirming that the other party was not moving and did not seem to have any intention of attacking,

Adhering to the survival principle of "better to avoid trouble than to cause trouble," Asahina Nagisa decided to slowly move around the pile of foul-smelling statues and run away.

however.

Just 0.01 seconds after she looked away from the statue and was about to turn around!

"Crack!"

A crisp cracking sound echoed in the confined corridor.

Before Asahina Nagisa could react, her neck had already been twisted into a bizarre 180-degree angle!

The speed was so fast that she didn't even have a chance to use the substitution technique or activate the enhanced suit's life-saving mechanism.

"Well......"

The moment her vision went dark, Asahina Nazuna felt a sudden dizziness.

Fortunately!

Upon entering the examination room in the back, she immediately activated her vampire bloodline in preparation for any unforeseen circumstances!

A severed neck, which would be fatal to an ordinary human, is not an irreversible injury for a vampire with extremely strong regenerative abilities, although it is excruciatingly painful.

but.

Peanut's design is such that as long as it's not locked onto, its killing spree will never stop!

"Snap! Tear—!"

During the time when Asahina Nazuna collapsed and convulsed, attempting to restructure her cervical spine.

Peanut, like a tireless meat grinder, frantically broke and tore her apart hundreds and thousands of times with lightning speed!

Until the blood and life force stored in Asahina Nazuna's body were completely drained.

A few seconds later.

The black ball's revival mechanism flashed with blue light.

Having used up her only chance to revive, Asahina Nazuna revived on the spot with full health.

When she opened her eyes, panting heavily, she saw that the monster that had just cruelly smashed her into a pulp was now, under her gaze, transformed back into a harmless, standing clay sculpture.

Asahina Nagisa's feelings were inevitably extremely complicated.

"Huh...huh..."

"What kind of unreasonable monster is this...?"

Despite her immense resentment and anger, having already suffered a heavy loss once, Asahina Nagisa had absolutely no intention of taking the initiative to probe and attack, provided the other party did not make a move.

Although everything happened very quickly, in the face of life and death, the amount of crucial information she needed to remember and extract was actually not that much.

Even if she doesn't fully understand what kind of species this monster is right now.

Asahina Nazuna remembered the fact that "Peanut attacked the moment she turned her gaze away and lost sight of him."

In other words... all you have to do is keep an eye on it?

Asahina Nazuna pursed her lips, not daring to blink, anxiously pondering what to do next.

We can't just keep staring at this inanimate object like this, can we?

Asahina Nazuna bit her lower lip, on the verge of tears.

Now that she's a vampire, she can indeed maintain her gaze for a long time without blinking thanks to her powerful self-control.

But she is not a real sculpture; she cannot possibly never blink or turn her gaze away!

Once she tries to leave the corridor, as soon as there's a blind spot, the monster will definitely reappear behind her and snap her neck!

This is an unsolvable deadlock!

Just as Asahina Nazuna's eyes were dry and sore, and her heart was growing increasingly anxious.

A series of slightly hurried footsteps came from the back of the corridor.

Fujiwara Chika, who had been running frantically in fright from the unknown sound, turned the corner at just the right moment and arrived here.

It was like a fateful encounter.

Asahina Nazuna's eyes were so sore that she could barely blink.

Looking at the figure standing in front of her, Fujiwara Chika cried out with tears in her eyes, as if she had seen a savior:

"Waaaaah~ I knew I wasn't mistaken, there really are living people here!"
