The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? Chapter 1247 772: Sewer: Picking You Up Is Like Picking Up a

"Did you co back specifically to save us?"

The boy cald down, wiped his tears, and asked.

"No. But I did wonder if you were still alive, so I thought I'd save you if I could."

Liu Zheng replied honestly.

Since he gave Ah Piao the "Citizen's Last Wish Recorder," at least one of them, Ah Piao or her son, would survive.

And generally speaking, mothers are more likely to sacrifice themselves.

"..."

The boy was silenced by his straightforwardness.

But after a brief silence, he looked at Liu Zheng with a bit more trust in his eyes.

"Mom said if anyone would co to save us, it would probably be you."

He said softly.

"Your mom overestimated . If I wasn't threatened, I wouldn't have set foot in the Kowloon Walled City again in my life."

Liu Zheng shook his head.

"But you still ca."

Ah Piao's voice sounded.

"Mom!"

The boy exclaid joyfully, stretching out his little hand to grasp at the air, only catching emptiness.

"Have you beco a ghost?"

Liu Zheng asked.

He could sense an energy fluctuation, but it was very faint.

"Take the Dead Boy and my bones with you, the bones will protect you."

Ah Piao didn't answer, just continued speaking on her own before falling silent.

"Another tough job taken on."

Liu Zheng sighed, bending down to pick up both the boy and the skeleton together.

The mud arrow wrapped around the skeleton but couldn't seep inside.

Judging by the boy's expression, he didn't seem to sll the stench of the mud arrow.

"Don't move around, if you fall, I won't pick you up."

He threatened.

"Okay."

The boy responded.

"Anything you need to take with you?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"The picture in the room."

The boy replied.

He carried the boy into the room, where a wooden photo fra was placed on the bedside cabinet, holding a photo of Ah Piao and the boy.

In the photo, the boy was much younger than he was now, nestled in Ah Piao's arms and holding her arm.

Ah Piao maintained a stony expression, but a hint of a smile could still be seen in the corners of her eyes.

"Is this it?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Yes. It's the only photo we have."

The boy nodded.

"Then let's go. Infinite Heavenly Venerable."

He put the photo fra into the Qiankun Ring and quickly left with the boy.

But just as Liu Zheng was about to rush out of the door, a sense of danger forcibly halted him in his tracks, and his strong montum caused him to perform a backflip.

"Click!"

Two white front teeth grew out from the doorfra, clamping together instantly.

If Liu Zheng hadn't stopped, he would have beco two halves by now.

"I knew it wouldn't be that easy."

His eyes darted around, looking to see if there was an escape route from a balcony or sothing.

There was nothing to laugh about, no balcony existed, not even a window.

There seed to be a window in the bedroom, but if teeth could grow from the main door, they could naturally grow from the bedroom door as well.

"Look up there!"

The boy suddenly shouted.

Liu Zheng looked up at the ceiling as instructed, only to find it covered in a pinkish-white at blanket.

If he guessed right, these were likely gums.

Once the gums spread throughout the room, they'd have no escape.

Without any further hesitation, Liu Zheng transford again into the Four-ard Asura mode.

"Hold on tight!"

He shouted.

The skeleton ca to life upon hearing, not only hugging Liu Zheng with its limbs but also opening its ribs to lock him in place.

Although the boy was squeezed to the point of difficulty breathing, at least there was no worry of falling off.

"Very good."

He took out a handful of ashes and poured them into his mouth.

"Na: Si Xue's Hair Ash (single-use)"

"Type: Tool"

"Quality: Excellent"

"Effect: Greatly enhances the effect of the next use of fla abilities or items."

"Note: Hair gone without a trace, dandruff even more prominent."

"Can it be taken out of the instance: No"

"Boss, give strength."

He muttered to himself.

The next second, golden flas engulfed him entirely.

Liu Zheng gripped "Anger" with all four arms, and under the burning of the golden fla, the Human Head Saber transford into a slender Miaodao again.

With a gentle slash of the blade, a golden fire line appeared between the clamped-front teeth.

"Boom!"

The fire line exploded with a bang, blasting a massive gap in the teeth.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Liu Zheng executed a flip, passing through the gap with the precision of a circus lion jumping through a ring of fire.

After completing the high-difficulty maneuver, he had no ti to catch his breath and imdiately jumped off the public balcony on the second floor.

As soon as he landed, the building in front of him cracked open completely, like a giant mouth, with pink gums filled with densely-packed blood holes, yet what erged from the holes were not teeth, but nurous black mold spores.

Although these molds resembled the Black Dumplings of Bathhouse Street, they only sent chills down Liu Zheng's spine.

Instinctively, he knew he must not let the Black Dumplings latch onto him, nor should he let them touch him.

Luckily, the "Sashimi of the Deep Sea Multi-headed Abalone" hadn't expired yet, and Liu Zheng once again activated the "Unleashed Wild Dog Mode," turning into afterimages as he retraced his steps.

The mold army converged, transforming into a black wave and rushing after him.

Wherever Liu Zheng fled, the buildings would split open, revealing wide gaping mouths.

New molds continuously erged and joined the black tide as he fled toward the sewer manhole cover. By then, the wave had grown to blot out the sky and cover the earth.

Liu Zheng's expression turned serious as he looked at the manhole cover, realizing the red iron rust on its surface had transford into black mold.

The path to survival was cut off.
