Chapter 9 Still a beast after all
"Damn it, I spent three hours waiting for you." Xia Shang said impatiently under the street lamp.
Also stopping with him was the figure not far behind him.
"Damn it, I spent three hours waiting for you." The figure's voice was stiff, as if he was learning every word.
Xia Shang turned around and looked at the man who had been following him. The middle-aged man looked ordinary. The white shirt on his body had been stained red by blood. Under the moonlight, the man's face looked particularly pale, and There was no sparkle in his eyes.
Realizing that he had been discovered, the middle-aged man gave up hiding instantly, and then attacked Xia Shang like a wild beast.
Along the way, several cracks appeared on his face, and then the face that was divided into several strips spread out, with densely packed sharp teeth embedded inside, like a strange and disgusting flower of flesh and blood.
"It's so disgusting."
Xia Shang quickly grasped the long sword and slashed at the incoming tentacle. The moment the two came into contact, the black cloth wrapping the iron sword instantly shattered, and a powerful force was transmitted to Xia Shang's right hand. This kind of power was simply beyond the reach of human beings. Competitive.
As a last resort, Xia Shang could only take a few steps back to avoid being torn apart by other tentacles that followed.
After a simple contact, Xia Shang found that the parasitic beast in front of him was a difficult opponent.
Whoops! ! The blade tentacles deformed from flesh and blood whipped towards Xia Shang in the air like a steel whip. The speed was so fast that Xia Shang could only barely parry. What was even more deadly was that after several consecutive slashes, the iron sword in his hand Gaps of varying depths have appeared.
"I'm afraid this guy has eaten a lot of people. We can't waste our energy with him. We must fight quickly."
clang!
Xia Shang slashed the tentacle of the parasitic beast again. The strong collision caused a small tear in the tiger's mouth where he held the sword, and the bright red blood quickly stained the hilt of the sword.
The parasitic beast seemed to smell the bloody smell coming from Xia Shang, which made him even crazier and attacked Xia Shang desperately.
The sharp blade tentacles extending from his head swung at an even more astonishing speed.
At this time, ravines of different sizes were cut by parasitic beasts in the surrounding streets.
"Huh..." A tentacle passed in front of Xia Shang dangerously. The pressure from death made Xia Shang gasp for breath. Suddenly, he felt something dripping from his chin and wiped it with his hand. The bright red blood stung his eyes.
"Xie Te... was actually hit, really fast." Xia Shang looked at the blood in his hands and felt calmer.
Xia Shang understood that if he continued like this, he would definitely die. It seemed that if he wanted to kill this parasitic beast, he would have to take risks.
Fortunately, the opponent had just become a parasitic beast, so its attacks were quite dull, and its tentacles were waving in the same direction. Controlling so many tentacles at one time, the opponent's brainpower could not react at all.
I saw that Xia Shang seized the opportunity and advanced instead of retreating. He sprinted through the tentacles attacking each other and came to the back of the parasitic beast.
Under the moonlight, he held the sword tightly with both hands, and his eyes were locked on the middle-aged man in front of him.
Naturally, the parasitic beast would not let Xia Shang go. He immediately turned his head, spread his legs and ran towards Xia Shang.
Suddenly, his upper body tilted downwards, and the tentacles extending from his head lost control for a moment. It turned out that the parasitic beast tripped over the ravine he created, and as a result, his upper body lost weight and was about to fall.
"As long as human intelligence has not evolved, it will still be a beast after all."
Seeing that the plan was successful, Xia Shang did not hesitate to smash a bottle of concentrated sulfuric acid into the head of the parasitic beast.
boom! The glass bottle burst, and the concentrated sulfuric acid inside instantly enveloped the parasitic beast's entire head.
The severe pain caused all the tentacles that the parasitic beast had previously extended to retract, and with a burning sound, wisps of white smoke floated out from the bloody mass of flesh.
"go to hell!"
Poof! Xia Shang thrust his sword into the heart of the parasitic beast.
Perhaps he was worried that this injury was not enough, so he stirred the blade again until the heart of the parasitic beast was completely chopped into pieces.
The parasitic beast, which was still writhing in pain just now, seemed to have been pressed by God to pause its life. It bent its knees and knelt in front of Xia Shang, gradually losing all its life characteristics.
"It seems that Jesus still gives me, Mr. Xia, some respect." After saying that, Xia Shang cut off the fleshy ball on his head with a sword.
Everything is settled.
Xia Shang moved the unlucky man's motorcycle on the side of the road, unscrewed the fuel tank cap, pushed it onto the parasite's body, took out the lighter in his pocket, and ignited the gasoline flowing to his feet.
boom! The fire rose up and engulfed the entire body.
And Xia Shang's figure, illuminated by the flames, gradually moved away.
…
In a Chinese barbecue restaurant in Ginza, Tokyo, Xia Shang, who had a band-aid on his face, was enjoying the barbecue in front of him. When he put the thick-cut beef into his mouth and chewed it, the rich fat and perfect meat aroma instantly filled his mouth. , Xia Shang was so happy that he almost fainted.
I wonder what could be more satisfying than having a late night snack.
Besides, it was not easy for him to find this store. After all, it was so late and most of the stores were closed.
"Not bad." Xia Shang patted his belly with satisfaction.
Only now did he open the panel.
[Innate ability: Transformation]
[Analysis condition: kill a parasitic beast]
[Analysis conditions have been unlocked, whether to integrate talents and abilities to transform]
"Fusion."
[The transformation talent is being fused, the current progress is 2%]
Xia Shang could clearly feel that his body was undergoing some strange changes, which seemed to come from changes at the genetic level. There was an itching sensation all over his body, but this feeling soon disappeared.
"If you want to fuse the transformation talent faster, you may need to observe or fight other parasitic beasts." With his previous experience in fusing the sword talent, Xia Shang probably understood how to quickly increase the speed of talent fusion.
Moreover, he had an idea in his mind at this time. Maybe after the parasitic beast grows, other talents can be born.
As for Izumi Shinichi, Tamura Reiko, or Goto, the last boss in the original work, these three are the perfect subjects for observation.
After paying the bill, Xia Shang walked out of the barbecue restaurant.
The panels of the residence where he lived had been arranged in advance. As soon as he returned to his one-bedroom apartment, Xia Shang began to experiment with his fused deformation ability.
Xia Shang recalled the sharp tentacles extended by the parasitic beast before.
While imagining, he controlled his right hand. With his unremitting efforts, his right hand gradually changed. You can see that his right hand melted like rubber, and then gradually turned into a curved blade shape...and then, there was no more. .
With Xia Shang's current integration progress and physical strength, he can only achieve this level.
"Damn, can this thing be lethal?" Xia Shang poked the table with his soft right hand, wanting to cry but without tears.
