The ghoul crawled on the ground, inching closer to her.
Nearby it, there was a corpse that had been completely devoured from the inside, its appearance grueso.
The ghoul growled lowly, its entire body fully exposed under the dim light, with a chain around its neck clanking loudly as it moved.
Xu Xiaoyou held her breath.
If she made a noise here, it would be troubleso.
"Roar..."
Seeing that the ghoul was still cautiously probing and did not directly pounce, Xu Xiaoyou hurriedly made a gesture for silence:
"Shh, good doggy, good."
As she spoke, she took out a few pieces of fresh raw at from the tool card and gently tossed them in front of the ghoul.
As expected, the ghoul, after catching the scent of fresh blood and flesh, paused, bent down, sniffed at the raw at with its nose, and then began devouring it with gusto.
"That's better."
Not waiting for Xu Xiaoyou to breathe a sigh of relief, the ghoul's face suddenly twisted, and it flung the at away, charging swiftly towards her!
In its blood-red gaze, the aura emanating from the girl was far more alluring and tempting than that piece of raw at!
"Tch..."
Xu Xiaoyou bit her lip slightly, flas gathering in her hand.
Boom—
The clanking of chains and the loud explosion imdiately caught the attention of the two patrolling nearby.
"There's a commotion! Huang's encountered soone over there."
The two Dissectors exchanged a glance before quickly running towards the source of the sound.
After rounding several corners, they saw the scene.
A figure, also encased in heavy Alchemy Armor, was at this mont gripping the ghoul in its hand, seemingly only needing to apply a little more force to snap the ghoul's neck.
Fiery flas burst from the seams of the armor, scorching the ghoul's body, its agonized wails echoing aloud.
"Huang!"
The short, stout dissector exclaid.
Under the tal mask, Xu Xiaoyou snorted coldly, then tossed the ghoul into the corner.
The Alchemy Armor she had left behind ca in handy at this mont, although it didn't quite fit her, she had discarded so parts of the armor.
"What's going on?"
The tall, thin dissector asked.
Xu Xiaoyou didn't answer, rely glanced at the ghoul curled up in the corner.
She knew these creatures had no sense of loyalty, low intelligence, they only succumbed to violence and stronger thods, and after her earlier lesson, it dared not harbor any hostility towards her.
Feeling the cold gaze from beneath the tal mask, the ghoul whimpered, like a wounded animal, its long, scarlet tongue licking at its burns.
The tall, thin dissector, upon seeing the hollowed-out corpse and the scattered raw at nearby, showed a look of realization:
"It's this guy protecting its food again, isn't it?"
And with that, it stepped forward and kicked the ghoul fiercely.
"Disobedient creature, it's ti to teach it a lesson!"
"Don't hit my Huang."
Seeing the tall, thin dissector about to add a few more kicks, the short, stout dissector hurried to the ghoul's side, shielding its body.
"Huang, stop hitting Huang."
"It's all you, Neo, spoiling this creature too much. This habit of protecting food hasn't changed in how long?" The tall, thin dissector scolded.
"Huang, only I'm good to you, rember that..."
The short, stout dissector called Neo acted as if it hadn't heard, tightly embracing the ghoul in its arms.
If it weren't for noticing the ghoul's extrely frightened expression, Xu Xiaoyou would have thought this was so kind of warm pet-and-owner mont.
The ghoul, suffocating under Neo's embrace, struggled, waving its sharp claws and growling.
Suddenly, as if enraged by the creature in its arms, Neo's aura turned terrifying, grabbing the ghoul's head with its large hands, lifting it high, then smashing it violently into the wall.
With a loud crash, the wall was splattered with red and white.
"Why!"
"I was so good to you, why do you still resist ."
Neo panted heavily like an Evil Ghost.
Before long, it let out a simple-minded laugh, jogged over with its big belly, and lifted a dusty cloth, revealing a cage full of ghouls with glowing red eyes, shrinking into corners upon feeling the light stimulus.
In the giant cage, nearly dozens of figures with sickly pale skin were bumping against the tal cage, causing it to rattle. Seeing this, Xu Xiaoyou silently took a step back.
Neo opened the cage, pulled out another ghoul, patiently put a chain on it, then patted the ghoul's head:
"From now on, you're called Huang. Rember, only I'm good to you."
The ghoul looked at its companion's still warm corpse beside it: "..."
Seeing their attention wasn't on her, Xu Xiaoyou was just about to slip away when a sharp voice ca from behind.
"Hold it!"
The tall, thin dissector stared intently at Xu Xiaoyou's figure, suddenly asking.
Xu Xiaoyou turned around, the scrutinizing gaze through the gaps of the mask seed to peel her skin off with its stare.
"What's your na."
The more it looked at Xu Xiaoyou's armor, the stranger it felt, swaying as it walked, clearly ill-fitting, and the most peculiar was that the armor gave it a familiar feeling.
Where had it seen this figure before?
Searching its mory, it couldn't find a corresponding family mber.
"Soya." Xu Xiaoyou said in a lowered voice.
"Soya?"
The tall, thin dissector's skeptical gaze deepened.
It had never heard that na before; though there were many branches of the dissector family, it rembered every family mber's na clearly.
