429: Chapter 417 Conflict 429: Chapter 417 Conflict So kind of living matter mixed in with the food, like a parasite, but very strange.
Luo Di’s understanding of the human body has reached a fairly high level, able to detect any anomaly inside at the first mont.
Whether it’s the Hell Iron Wire from the Punishnt Room or the tentacles from the pituitary, they can all serve as diators of internal perception.
But this ti they cannot be removed.
Substance structured like a parasite disappears imdiately after entering the esophagus, seemingly perating it and settling in so area within the body, completely hiding itself.
It cannot be detected by the iron wires or by gray infection,
this is a more advanced substance, most likely related to the creations of Mr.
Question Mark.
Looking at the exquisite al remaining in front of him, Luo Di felt a strong physical aversion, but with limited ti, he had to bravely continue eating.
Sitting opposite, Tooth Boy was the sa, his face full of teeth trembling slightly, yet he gritted his teeth to endure and ate alongside Luo Di, consuming an equal amount.
Whether it was atballs, steak, or vegetables,
as soon as placed in the mouth and chewed, worm-like things would erge, the taste reminiscent of a poorly sealed kimchi jar infiltrated by a large number of stinkbugs, mixed with the stench of decay.
With astonishing perseverance, the two managed to clear the dishes on the table.
And just as they finished the last bite,
thud!
A pumping sound ca from within,
but it wasn’t from the heart, it was so other internal organ.
Those previously disappeared parasites were now congregating in their lower abdon, forming a fetal structure.
Luo Di had experience in this area and knew what might happen next.
Sothing was rapidly draining his vitality, even absorbing nutrients from the Old Spine, not sparing even the gray tentacles.
“Hurry and open it!”
Luo Di shouted, taking action himself, aiming the Slaughter Knife at his abdon for a self-inflicted caesarean.
Sure enough,
a spherical entity was embedded between the intestines, with black veins on its surface outlining a question mark pattern.
“The final level was indeed crafted by Mr.
Question Mark himself.”
Slash!
When the blade cut the egg’s surface, a pitch-black alien creature burst out instantly.
Remarkably, though it gestated in the body for re seconds, it had already grown nearly a ter long.
The most bizarre was its head, presenting a question mark shape.
As the fetal form broke free,
Luo Di, as the host, instantly fell into a weakened state, with his bodily functions drastically reduced.
The alien larva imdiately opened its mouth full of acidic saliva, seemingly trying to find “nourishnt” on the host’s body, targeting Luo Di’s head.
A small mouthpart suddenly darted out,
slash!
Luo Di’s head wasn’t pierced, instead, a faster strike decapitated the question mark-structured head of the creature.
Though weak, the strike was a basic instinct.
Yet the decapitated alien creature continued basic life functions, waving newly-grown sharp claws, aiming to tear apart Lu Di’s exposed innards.
Due to weakness, the second strike ca a bit slower,
just as the intestines were about to be torn apart,
snap!
The headless alien body was suddenly bitten in half, the remaining torso collapsed on the ground, leaking black fluids, twitching to death.
Luo Di turned to look across the table,
Tooth Boy was stretching his palm towards this side, biting off the alien body from a distance.
He didn’t even need a caesarean, directly chomping and crushing the egg inside, only needing to extract the stillborn afterwards.
Luo Di nodded at the opponent’s face ford by teeth, signaling his gratitude.
Then he carefully used Painful Iron Wire to sew up the abdominal opening, allowing grayness to ticulously check inside for any extra foreign bodies before feeling assured.
At the sa ti,
the voice of Mr.
Question Mark echoed in the room,
“Congratulations on passing the first room.
Use the remaining ti to rest here until the countdown ends, then you may proceed to the next room.
Since you chose [Cooperation], do not attempt to kill each other during the rest period.
The first to make a move will be considered violating the rules and eliminated.”
As the voice ended,
the entire room seed refreshed, all the stench and corpses on the ground disappeared, reminding Luo Di of a photographer who once restored scenes through a cara.
Seeing there were still twenty minutes left on the countdown, Luo Di got up, moving slightly to lessen the weakness from the gestation.
Just as he stood,
the tooth-bearing palm reached out again, seemingly wanting to shake hands with Luo Di just like before.
Though Mr.
Question Mark warned against killing during the rest period, he didn’t ntion anything about infection, invasion, or implantation.
But Luo Di indeed felt no hostility from the other party.
After so consideration,
creak, outstretched tentacles grew between his wrist, forming into a glove structure, ensuring a tight grip when holding Tooth Boy’s hand.
The touch was indeed unpleasant, like gripping the inner wall of a saliva-less oral cavity, the texture of teeth particularly distinct.
But the whole process was without any anomaly, genuinely a simple handshake.
“Thank you for your reminder.”
A sowhat youthful voice ca from the other party.
“Hmm.”
Luo Di simply nodded in response, then withdrew his hand.
If this was regular daily life, Luo Di might have attempted chatting, even asking about the other’s characteristics or origin of the monster.
After all, this Tooth Boy was indeed odd.
Luo Di had lived so ti in the Corner,
he had seen maniacs like clowns, ghosts that once ambushed him in an underground parking lot, and those bloodthirsty creatures in pits.
But this Tooth Boy’s disposition was indeed strange…
not an ounce of hostility felt.
Unfortunately, the scene wasn’t suitable for small talk, acquaintance or deeper interaction.
According to the ga’s setup, the two would inevitably face a final showdown.
Luo Di also realized Mr.
Question Mark seed intent on creating such scenarios, placing the pair in a contradictory state.
Tooth Boy opened his eyes that resembled crystalline, glancing at Luo Di who no longer sought a handshake and had stepped back.
He seed sowhat disappointed and saddened, lowering his head again, fiddling with the tooth bracelet.
Ti silently ticked by,
the countdown ended…
click!
The lock on the door opposite made a sound, the door automatically opened, revealing pitch darkness beyond.
When they had fully stepped inside, imrsed in darkness!
Boom, the door behind them slamd shut, the scene of the next room slowly unveiling.
Just like a ga, with real-ti refreshed settings.
This ti wasn’t a luxurious dining room but an old basent,
the door to the next room transford into a dilapidated wooden door, the lock itself beca a standalone tal U-lock.
Wooden boxes covered in dust were piled around.
At the basent’s center was a special device,
a half-tre long-cubed transparent container sat on a stone pedestal, filled with a pale green liquid inside, with question mark-shaped bubbles constantly rising.
Just looking at such liquid was discomforting.
Lying at the container’s bottom was a key.
Even without finding the envelope, Luo Di roughly guessed the room’s objective, or rather, how it was deliberately designed.
“I found it…”
Tooth Boy soon found the envelope inside one of the wooden barrels, holding it in his hand.
This ti no prompt tone ca, they had to handle things themselves.
“Mr.
Luo Di, shall we open the letter?” Tooth Boy’s crystalline eyes watched him, actively seeking his opinion.
Luo Di hesitated for a bit before finally deciding,
“Open it.”
Both simultaneously tore open the envelope, taking out its contents.
Sure enough, as Luo Di expected, the requirent was simple, simpler than the first room.
“Retrieve the key inside the container, unlock it to enter the next room.”
This ti, there wasn’t a need for equal division like during the al, seemingly requiring only one person to extract the key.
