Capítulo 862: Chapter 841: Jia Wen
Fifty years ago.
[VHS Tape Event (First)
Jia Wen was the first monster to arrive in the Middle Layer as a Zombie, invited by Mr. Question Mark to participate in the VHS Tape Event.
The rules remained the sa, with a total of eight people competing against each other, and ultimately one person would claim the Fear Relic.
Mid-event, a residential community.
A young man with short dark green hair and handso features, Mr. Question Mark, was sitting on a bench taking a short rest, panting continuously.
At that ti, Mr. Question Mark seed not to have the habit of wearing a hood.
His sleeves were rolled over his elbows and fixed with sleeve clips, and the top two buttons of his shirt were undone, revealing a chest adorned with a Question Mark necklace.
His sharp gaze was fixed intently in one direction, at the green grass bushes.
There,
lay a completely disassembled white entity,
with a question mark drawn with a marker on every part of its body, capable of maximally disrupting physical regeneration, suppressing individual consciousness.
Even so, these scattered small pieces of limbs were still healing, relying on instinct and regeneration ability far surpassing the sa level to complete reaggregation.
Even Mr. Question Mark showed a surprised expression; it was the first ti he’d encountered such a hard-to-kill monster since coming to the Corner.
Before long,
a young man in his early twenties with congenital white hair stood up from the bushes, though walking was still sowhat difficult, and he even took a heavy fall before taking one step.
Due to having many parts of his body marked by the question mark, his nerve sensory was completely disrupted.
Moving his right index finger might beco stopping his breath, moving his mouth might beco extending his right leg.
But it took him just ten seconds to adjust,
the Zombie uttered an instinctual hissing sound and continued to attack, eager to decide the final victory.
As he was about to approach Mr. Question Mark, his right hand suddenly beca uncontrollable, punching ahead of ti.
Sitting on the bench, Mr. Question Mark pushed a palm forward.
Seemingly their mutual attack,
was actually the start of a ga – [Rock, Paper, Scissors].
In an instant, Jia Wen’s body seed to be locked by fabric, compressed inward, and finally pinched into a pile of flesh.
Even so,
regeneration continued.
Even Mr. Question Mark was moved by this, as his physical strength had already begun to overdraw from using his ga ability multiple tis.
In less than a minute, Jia Wen had restored to human form, just as he was trying to support his body to stand.
A hand proactively reached over,
not for the ga,
nor for attack,
just a plain stretch, seemingly wanting to offer the most basic gesture of help, with the question mark birthmark clearly visible on the arm.
Jia Wen looked up in doubt, only to see Mr. Question Mark kneeling on one knee before him, the smile on his face perfectly complented by the moonlit night.
“At this rate, even if I forcefully win, it’s easy for others to seize the opportunity.
Mr. Jia Wen, your physique is the strongest I’ve seen so far. I underestimated you from the start, never thought a fear expression like a Zombie could achieve such power.
I now formally invite you,
invite you to beco my long-term, fixed, ga partner.
With our alliance, we can certainly claim victory in this VHS Tape Event and every ga in the future.”
“How do we divide the spoils?”
“If the final relic suits you, then you take it. If it suits , then I…”
Looking at the hand reaching out to provide support,
at Mr. Question Mark’s smiling face,
Jia Wen made an unusual move; he didn’t extend his hand but instead opened his mouth and bit into Mr. Question Mark’s palm.
This bite, which could be easily dodged, actually hit this ti.
The core virus was injected, spreading all over the body. But the virus only adhered to the cell surfaces without expressing.
After the bite ended,
Jia Wen looked up again, only to find Mr. Question Mark’s expression unchanged; not only that, but he also showed a friendly smile and softly said:
“In this case, you should feel at ease, right?”
Jia Wen was quite surprised, unable to respond for a long ti.
He couldn’t understand this dangerous monster in front of him, couldn’t understand why the other party, holding the advantage, would actively fall into a disadvantageous position.
If Jia Wen wished, he could now activate all the viruses and let Mr. Question Mark die on the spot.
“Why are you doing this… for what?”
“To win.”
“… Let’s go, let’s first win this videotape incident.”
…
≮Great Screening Information Notice, participant [Jia Wen] has been eliminated! The individual will be completely removed from Carcerem and return to the original video store.≯
“What!?”
Luo Di was shocked upon hearing the news,
he originally thought that with a teacher like Jia Wen, there would still be two chances, not expecting him to have already died once, just like him.
Moreover, the power Jia Wen just exploded with was too terrifying.
The transcendence force touching the Divine Status far exceeded the level of this stage, directly overloading the physical body. Even a body trained day and night by Jia Wen was collapsing on its own.
Primarily because his soul was repeatedly slashed and injured, not just once.
Such a pity,
In Luo Di’s view, if Teacher Jia Wen could find a way to stabilize this condition, his strength could entirely reach the top tier.
Even Hua Yuan, who was usually talkative, was silent at this mont.
She couldn’t see Jia Wen’s actions in the final confrontation, they were unimaginably fast, hard to believe that a zombie system monster could reach such a level.
After calming down slightly, Hua Yuan hurriedly said, “Luo Di… Don’t just stand there, hurry up and recover! Making such a big scene, maybe soone is waiting for you outside.”
“Wait…”
How could Luo Di not know that soone might be lying in wait outside, but the scene before him couldn’t allow him to relax.
Clearly completely dead, clearly the Corner had already released an announcent,
yet the scattered white flesh in front of him was still wriggling, still crawling, still regenerating, utterly incredible.
At this mont, a white entity was being reset and ford inside the video store beneath Jiang Mansion, but consciousness never transferred.
It seems there is so strong obsession, this obsession preventing Jia Wen’s consciousness from leaving.
Inside the gymnasium,
Jia Wen’s regeneration was frantically resisting death’s arrival, but due to being shattered too thoroughly, true regeneration couldn’t be achieved.
Only a broken, gaping zombie stands up,
emitting the kind of zombie scream similar to those in movies, moving ahead unsteadily.
Lifting the almost broken right arm, gently it rested on Luo Di’s shoulder.
“Luo Di… I can’t continue anymore… I can’t keep up with Question Mark’s pace.
I hope you promise one thing, if there’s no competitive relationship, please replace to assist Mr. Question Mark.
His ga will lead the Corner to a [winning] situation.”
“Alright!”
Upon getting the affirmative response,
the arm resting on Luo Di’s shoulder began disintegrating, each cell turning into dust, gradually dismantling.
Seeing Jia Wen’s physical body about to completely collapse,
ti seed to suddenly stop.
Luo Di faintly sensed sothing, yet he couldn’t move his body, his eyes and tongue couldn’t act, just standing in place.
Clearly, the confrontation barrier that hadn’t yet been lifted opened a small hole at the top.
A man in a flamboyant suit, holding an oil lamp descended from the air.
The suit was half gold, half black.
Carrying no weapon, without any hostility.
He didn’t look at Luo Di, instead, he gazed at the collapsing and disintegrating Jia Wen, a sowhat extre smile on his mouth, reached out to touch the pale zombie flesh.
With force, he gouged out,
placed at the mouth,
savored carefully.
Imdiately, his eyes emitted golden light, as if having tasted unexpected cell material. Then, he directly took out a tumor-structured pouch and packed Jia Wen inside.
With the completion of packing,
Jia Wen’s body reset in the video store directly disappeared, no longer influenced by the rules of the great screening.
Thus the mysterious man carried the pouch, swaggering away, disappearing into this ancient Kingdom.
Buzz!
The flow of ti returned to normal.
Luo Di was stunned in place, unable to comprehend what had just happened. Initially he thought it was an Outer God’s invasion but quickly dismissed the thought.
“Wait… Recently with Gust’s assistance, borrowing the Outer Realm passage to visit Corner Depths, I once saw a high-level being guarding the Prison Director’s arm.
The scent was identical to this man, it’s a sickly sll!
Was it the Prison Director’s forr confidant or direct subordinate? Seeing Jia Wen’s potential, decided to break the rules and directly take him away?
This is better… If Teacher Jia Wen’s potential got eliminated here, it would truly be too wasteful.”
