(Skills are divided into five levels / more skills can be seen by expanding.)

Characteristics: Demonic Body (1. Undying, tenacious life. 2. Eternal youth. 3. Rapid healing, stone skin. 4. Immense strength.)

Moonlight: (1. Increases combat power by 50% at night. 2. Absorbs the moon's energy to enhance one's physical constitution.)

(Note: Similar characteristics can be combined and integrated.)

As expected of an ogre, Mike incorporated all the traits he gained from the three monsters into his Demon Body.

With his tenacious life force, he can now slowly recover as long as his head isn't removed.

On the other hand, the physical enhancement from the [Moonlight] trait has also reached its limit.

If Mike wants to further improve his physique, he needs to add even stronger traits.

On the other hand, in terms of intelligence, Mike has become a super genius and now learns everything very quickly.

He can quickly learn any skill that requires mental effort and reach a level three or professional level.

"Mike, what are you going to do with this?" Jesse, who had finished vomiting, returned to the cabin.

"How about we set it on fire?" Mike suggested.

At least a hundred innocent souls are buried here...

Such a sinful place should be burned to the ground.

“It’s better to burn it,” Jesse said, looking at the tattered cloth on the long table.

The girl recognized the rags; they were the clothes of her deceased friend.

At this moment, Chris, having recovered, also went back into the cabin.

Then he helped Jesse tidy up the clothes and scraps of meat on the table.

Good news! Mike and his friends arrived just in time. The ogre had only cut the meat into pieces and hadn't even had a chance to cook it yet.

Half an hour later, Mike, carrying a bag of jewelry, knocked over the campfire next to the long table and the torches on the wall, setting the entire cabin ablaze.

In the open space outside, with Chris's help, Jessie buried her three dead companions.

As for Carly, after vomiting several more times, she was now weakly slumped on the ground to rest.

"What's that in your hand?" Chris, who had finished digging, came over to greet Mike when he saw him come out.

After the series of events that followed, Chris adjusted his attitude and began to regard Mike as his pillar of support.

Although it's only temporary...

"You mean this?" Mike handed over a photograph he was holding.

The photo is a family portrait.

"How is this possible... This woman is the owner of the inn at the intersection... Those three monsters behind her are ogres..."

Chris stared in shock when he received the photo.

You should know that the reason he stubbornly chose to take the shortcut through the woods was because he saw the map on the bulletin board at the small inn at the intersection.

In connection with what happened here.

Everything seemed to have a hint of conspiracy.

Chapter 265: Eradicating Evil

"Let's go, let's get out of here first."

After the cabin was completely engulfed in flames, Mike, carrying a pack on his back, gestured for the others to leave together.

Mike gained a lot from this "rescue" mission. In addition to obtaining three special light orbs, he also acquired a large bag of jewelry.

These valuable items that people usually use for decoration were previously discarded by the ogres in a corner like trash.

Clearly, given the intelligence of these ogres, they wouldn't have thought of collecting those valuable items.

Behind this, it is very likely that someone is directing the ogres to collect valuable items.

The weight of Mike's package also suggests that someone must have been at the cabin before and taken valuables, including banknotes.

In front of the cabin, Jesse and his friends found the large crane that the cannibals used to tow trucks in the pile of abandoned vehicles next to it.

This is a crane converted from a heavy semi-trailer, with a large claw-shaped hook at the rear.

It was because of this grappling hook that all the towed vehicles were reduced to scrap metal.

The group had no choice but to drive the semi-trailer truck, which reeked of fish and rust, back onto the main road.

A dozen minutes later, the four people returned to the main road and saw the pickup truck parked halfway down the road.

"Let's rest for a bit, I have some food..." Mike jumped off the half-cart carrying the package.

Walking to his pickup truck, he first tossed the package onto the passenger seat. Then he went to the back of the truck and took out some food and drinks.

Having gone through a series of escapes, Jesse and his two companions hadn't eaten all day.

At this point, they didn't stand on ceremony with Mike and wolfed down the food and water they received.

Emergency rations, chocolate, and small bottles of purified water—these most ordinary foods were transformed into delicacies by Jesse and his two companions.

After eating and replenishing their nutrition, the three felt truly alive again.

At the same time, a complex mix of emotions welled up inside me, a feeling of relief and survival.

Carly, who had narrowly escaped death several times, began to sob quietly.

What happened that day felt like a nightmare.

Thankfully, it's all in the past now.

"Next, you should go and rest in the nearest town. I still have some things to take care of..."

After drinking some water, Mike leaned against the pickup truck. Seeing that the three had eaten and calmed down, he immediately began to arrange their itinerary: "By the way, Chris. Before you leave, give me back that photo."

Upon hearing this, Chris, who had taken out the photo, seemed to realize something and suggested, "Let me go with you."

The intelligence of ogres suggests that they are nothing more than raw, bloodthirsty beasts.

In this situation, where did they get their weapons, cranes, and living utensils? And where did they learn how to set traps and hunt?

After eliminating all the impossibilities, there is only one truth!

There are other people pulling the strings behind the cannibals.

Chris, unlike Mike, chose to take the forest path, guided by a map and other people.

Yes, Chris, who was in a hurry, had asked the owner of the inn at the intersection for directions.

As long as you're not stupid, you can connect the dots.

The identity of the person behind the cannibal is about to be revealed.

“I can handle this by myself. You three should go find a place to rest.” Mike took the photos and refused Chris’s request.

It's not like we're hosting a dinner party, there's no need for so many people to go.

Moreover, if Mike's prediction is correct, a bloody scene may unfold in a little while.

It's best to keep things like silencing witnesses a secret.

"Where are you going? I'll go with you..." Carly, sensing that Mike was about to leave alone, immediately clung to him.

After being saved by Mike once, the girl seemed to develop a special dependence on him.

Jesse, looking over from behind, didn't say anything, but her expression showed that she was very worried about Mike.

It turns out that being too popular can also be a problem.

“Listen to me, you two find a place to rest first. Maybe we’ll see each other again after I’m done with my business…” Mike patted Carly, who was leaning close to him, then turned to Chris, who seemed lost in thought, and said, “The rest of the journey is yours to take care of.”

Compared to women, men have a stronger ability to cope with stress.

Chris, seemingly anticipating Mike's thoughts, pulled out a business card and said, "Contact me anytime if you need anything..."

Chris – Business Manager, Colorado Stock Exchange.

Although he was just a junior employee at a securities firm, Chris's position was enough to help him get rid of some unnecessary troubles.

"OK, I'll call you if I need anything." Having more friends means having more options, so Mike accepted the business card.

Moreover, in his view, this Mr. Chris was a "smart man".

Of the three rescued, only Chris probably knew what was in Mike's package.

However, he wisely did not bring it up.

They completely regarded it as Mike's personal "trophy".

The two sides seemed to have reached an initial understanding, which is why Mike was willing to continue contacting them.

“Let’s go too. I don’t know how much further we have before we see the town.” After watching the pickup truck drive away, Chris, the only man present, began planning their journey.

"It's not far. The nearest town is just over an hour's drive from here..." Jesse and his expedition team came to Texas from elsewhere to explore.

The path they took was exactly the opposite of Chris's.

Therefore, Jesse also knew about the situation on the other side of the path.

"An hour's drive? Good! I'm going to take a hot shower and then have a nice nap. To hell with work~" The reason Chris took this shortcut was ultimately because the company wanted him to get back in three hours.

This was an impossible task to complete.

As a result of this task, the junior employee who suffered a huge crisis was also filled with resentment towards his job.

Work? What is that compared to my life?

Jesse, who was standing nearby and didn't know what Chris was suddenly doing, pulled Carly away from the man.

Meanwhile, Mike, eager to confirm his suspicions, drove his secondhand pickup truck to its top speed on the way back.

With his Level 4 professional racing driver skills, driving fast cars at night is nothing special for him.

In less than two hours, the pickup truck returned to the hotel at the corner of the alley.

It was nearly midnight.

The lights were still on in the small inn, and amidst the entanglement of several figures, soft, sensual sounds drifted out.

"That's really insane!"

Mike, peeking through the crack in the door at the scene inside, looked as if he had eaten a bedbug.

His eyes were dirty, so he needed to wash them properly.

The white-haired man chopping meat was clearly the father.

No wonder they breed monsters and ogres~

This family, who crossed the line of human rights abuses, are deeply sinful.

"Dong~dong~dong~"

To avoid further polluting his eyes, Mike, who was standing outside the door, politely knocked on the door.

"who is it?"

After a series of rustling sounds of dressing, a woman's voice came from inside the house.

Okay, there shouldn't be anything you can't watch now.

"Bang~"

After giving the players enough time to recover, Mike once again unleashed his powerful scoring method.

Violent and direct.

The woman inside the room, who had simply covered her private parts, was first startled by the loud commotion.

After seeing who it was, she flashed her car headlights and tempted them, "A cowboy by day? Want to join us?"
