The young man in front of him had short black hair, wore a black sports jacket, his voice gentle, and his gaze reserved.
Yet, the other exuded a sharp sense of danger, causing a prickling sensation for Yang Zhao.
The intensity of the Light Core Body.
Dangerous yet delectable.
Yang Zhao involuntarily swallowed.
Wanted to eat... really wanted to eat him...
But he knew.
This was impossible.
Zhou Yi, the chairman of Wasteland Developnt Company, a na currently at its peak, even he frequently heard discussions about this organization.
Moreover, the man had saved him.
He couldn't repay kindness with vengeance just because he wanted to eat at.
Originally, Yang Zhao had thought he was done for, dood to rot in 404 City until he decayed into a pile of dead flesh.
He hadn't imagined being saved.
"Start from the beginning."
The man who saved him spoke softly.
Where should he start?
Yang Zhao pondered deeply.
He would begin with the day he was born.
What he rembered about being born from the at Mountain was limited. He could only recall being tossed around in what felt like a giant mixing vat until he slowly took shape.
Once ford, he was just a vague atball.
At that ti, he couldn't leave the at Mountain.
He had to undergo the first external feeding to complete the transformation. Just the at from the at Mountain wasn't enough, it couldn't fill that specific hunger.
Starving, he rolled around the at Mountain searching, finding soone slicing at on the mountain. The fragrance they emitted entranced him, making him oblivious to everything else.
When he regained his senses, he had already eaten the person, leaving only tattered clothes on the ground.
He felt an unprecedented satisfaction and fullness.
He also beca the person he had eaten.
Yang Zhao had now beco himself.
The man opposite interrupted, "You said, you ate the original Yang Zhao and beca him? Is this so kind of ability?"
Yang Zhao nodded, "I'm a carnivore. Do you know what a carnivore is?"
"I've heard of it."
The other contemplated, "What I heard was that carnivores are humans who enter the at Mountain, eat its flesh, and undergo so sort of physiological change. But now it seems it's not like that, rather you're a special human born from the at Mountain, who eats and replaces a human's identity..."
"So, you must eat a person and replace their identity to leave the at Mountain?"
"Exactly right. That's it."
Yang Zhao thought, not bad for a man who could conquer 404 City.
The person in front asked, "What are the specific characteristics of a carnivore?"
"at."
Yang Zhao said, "It's just needing to eat at. And it needs to be high-grade at... which ans high-intensity flesh lifeforms. Like , barely considered A-grade, only at from similar A-grade lifeforms can attract and make feel satisfied and full. Other at won't do."
Saying this, he quietly swallowed again.
This chairman of the Wasteland Company, exuded a strong aroma of at... making him want to take a hearty bite. However, his ability and principles wouldn't allow him to do so.
Yang Zhao was soone who repaid kindness with kindness and vengeance with vengeance. In his human phase, as a carnivore as well.
So after leaving the at Mountain, he got rid of Yang Zhao's enemies.
The young chairman displayed a puzzled expression, "If you eat at, why would you attack the Bone Man? It's a Bone Man... where's the at?"
"Bones are at too."
Yang Zhao corrected, "You can't say it's not edible just because bones are hard to chew. Bones can be delicious too, as long as it's a high-grade lifeform, any part that can be eaten is at."
"Only chanical life can't be eaten, they're all plastic and tal. I once ate one and had diarrhea for a long ti. After reassembling it, it was still alive, truly a resilient but disgusting lifeform... In the end, it forgave my feeding impulse, which made feel quite embarrassed."
"..."
The other suddenly fell silent.
He wasn't sure if he had said sothing wrong.
"Where did you attack that Bone Man?"
"On a dock near an island close to the Forbidden Continent."
Yang Zhao recalled, "When I erged from the at Mountain, seeing so many people outside made very happy, because it ant the world had lots of at."
"But most weren't suitable for , only high-grade at attracts carnivores, eating other at is unnecessary, carnivores are very stringent about at."
"I searched around."
"Then I found that Bone Man, it looked ordinary, but emanated a crispy, rich aroma... I couldn't resist following it. Unable to resist the temptation, I just had to eat this al."
"To have eaten it would have been so wonderful, I couldn't even imagine how delicious it would be."
Recalling that mont, his saliva involuntarily started flowing, and he subconsciously wiped his mouth with the back of his hand.
The person next to him seed to think of sothing, "So, the ability characteristic of carnivores is to devour high-grade flesh bodies, then beco part of themselves?"
"Yes. After eating, one can beco their appearance and identity, and also grow stronger."
"How many carnivores does the at Mountain have?"
Yang Zhao said, "It's just now."
"What about before?"
"I didn't encounter any others before. Anyway, when I was born and went around looking for at, it was just . Since I was born, I knew I was a carnivore and had to find advanced at to eat... Then at so point, my body would start to rot, and I'd have to return to the at Mountain to avoid total destruction."
"Oh? So the carnivores seek out advanced at outside, eat it, and then bring themselves back to the at Mountain?"
"That's roughly how it is."
The black-haired young man's eyes flickered: "Tell about the process of your capture."
Yang Zhao thought for a mont: "Actually, the process was very short. I was following it, trying to find a safe place to eat it. Then, when it was alone, I suddenly couldn't move at all."
"When I woke up again, I was already in 404 City, and a machine next to told I was imprisoned and serving a sentence."
"I know that place; it's a place where they hold world-class dangerous criminals. Many Skywalkers are locked up there, but not a single one has managed to escape."
"I was held there all the ti until I suddenly lost consciousness. When I woke up again, I was here..."
The other party nodded: "I'll tell you what happened."
After listening to the part he didn't know.
Yang Zhao couldn't help but feel a bit creepy: "So that Bone Man was a substitute? No wonder it was so delicious; I couldn't resist at all, and I instantly collapsed during the fight."
"They actually used for biochemical experints..."
"Outside is so scary, at Mountain back ho is safer... It's really hard to find so at outside."
Yang Zhao felt troubled in his heart.
The carnivore nature makes it hard to resist high-grade at. It was like this when facing the Bone Man substitute before. Now, the powerful scent emanating from this chairman makes him drool continuously, his body restless.
If it wasn't for the threat of death hanging over his head.
He might have already couldn't resist and bit the other person.
There are few carnivores, likely because they are easily controlled by their carnivorous desires, leading them to encounter powerful beings and get counter-killed.
The black-haired young man pondered for a while: "I have an idea, maybe it can relieve your carnivorous desire, allowing you to better control your actions and not go mad like in the previous situation."
"Do you want to try it?"
Yang Zhao was taken aback, then nodded.
Given the terrifying power the other party displayed, there was no need to deceive him, as he couldn't resist whatever the other party decided to do to him.
"Co with ."
The black-haired young man led Yang Zhao into a black biological entity.
Its interior consisted of a whole Light Core.
However, without the sll of at, Yang Zhao remained calm.
After the black entity trembled for a mont.
"We've arrived."
"Follow ."
Following the chairman, Yang Zhao ca to a room made of crystal.
There was a young woman inside wearing a lab coat.
She wore glasses, her long hair tied up at the back, looking extraordinarily charming. However, despite being incredibly strong, she also exuded that dangerous tingling sensation, yet didn't emit any scent of at.
Like the black biological entity, she wasn't of flesh and blood.
"This is the Night God, she'll first examine the chanism of the carnivore in you."
The young chairman said, "Do as she says."
Yang Zhao obediently sat down on a chair.
Night God's pupils, one black and one red, had a cold, sharp feel, making him feel as if his whole body was being penetrated.
A mont later.
Night God said to the black-haired young man beside her, "There are no records about his group, but with the Black Gemstone, we can see that his chanism cos from the brain. In other words, the core of the physiological chanism is still the brain."
"The brain?"
"Yes."
The black-haired young man seed to think of sothing, then took Yang Zhao to another room.
Here, it looked like a hospital, with the pungent sll of disinfectant, and the ceiling, walls, and bedsheets were all white.
Yang Zhao was examined by several chanical Doctors.
Then a surgery began.
When he woke up again, Yang Zhao found himself different.
Even though the chairman was still in front of him, exuding that top-notch aty aroma, he was no longer restless or out of self-control.
Yang Zhao froze for a mont: "Has the carnivore trait... disappeared?"
The black-haired young man smiled: "We've just suppressed that part of the brain impulse through surgery."
"We used a special surgical thod, using Cave People civilization technology to implant brain repairs, not affecting carnivore abilities, but now you are no longer controlled by the urge to eat. I think this will solve the problem of carnivores living normally outside, without being completely controlled by at Mountain."
Then he took Yang Zhao for a stroll outside. Along the way, there were various flesh-and-blood beings, and so A-level Skywalkers appeared, yet Yang Zhao no longer felt the restlessness and frenzy of the past.
For the first ti, he could completely control his actions.
And no longer be a shell controlled by appetite.
Yang Zhao couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Great, great, thank you... thank you."
The other person said, "Helping you isn't without cost, I want you to do sothing for ."
"I need you to investigate the detailed situation of the at Mountain. Carnivores are the natives there, you can move freely and you understand the situation there best. It's best to use equipnt to capture various scenes there and conduct a full-scene record."
Yang Zhao imdiately straightened up and said, "Mr. Chairman, leave it to ! I'll head back ho to investigate right away!"
