A Core Ship From The Start
Chapter 1258 - Chapter 1258 Chapter 849 Investigation_3

Chapter 1258: Chapter 849: Investigation_3 Chapter 1258: Chapter 849: Investigation_3 “What is this… this scent… why is there such an enticing smell?!”

As the Ghoul spoke, it opened its mouth wide, as if it had seen an incredibly delicious dish, and couldn’t help but let its saliva trickle down.

“Yikes–!”

Feeling the other’s gaze as if it wanted to lick her clean from head to toe, Mary shuddered involuntarily and quickly stepped back, while Duanmu Huai whistled.

“Oh, that’s right, I almost forgot, in the eyes of the monsters of this world, you’re no different from Monk Tang’s flesh.”

“You are mine!!!”

Before the words even finished, the Ghoul suddenly flashed forward, pouncing straight at Mary, spreading its arms wide open as the four tentacle-like wings behind it unfolded.

“Let me savor your taste! Woman!”

However, just as the Ghoul opened its mouth and tried to bite down on Mary, Duanmu Huai launched a punch and sent it flying away.

“Your opponent is me, you lowly mongrel.”

Glancing at the hefty Ghoul on the ground, Duanmu Huai waved his hand and clenched his fist, and Mary quickly moved behind him. It wasn’t that Mary couldn’t handle the hulking creature, but its gaze was simply too nauseating. Merely being watched by it felt as if the gaze turned into a tongue, ceaselessly licking on her skin–a sensation no girl could withstand.

Let alone the fact that it genuinely wanted to eat her.

Literally.

That was even more unacceptable.

“Who are you?”

At that moment, the hulking Ghoul stood back up, glaring at Duanmu Huai with venomous eyes.

“I have no interest in someone as disgusting and tasteless as you, get lost!”

As the Ghoul roared, the four tentacle-like appendages extending from its back lengthened again, striking straight towards Duanmu Huai’s body. Witnessing this scene, both Investigator Mahoru and Investigator Amon tensed up, aware of this creature’s ferocity. They knew that even for them, without wearing special armor, a blow like that from an S-Class Ghoul could pierce through the body totally, even tear it to shreds!

However–what happened next before their eyes was unimaginable.

The mighty tentacles, capable of splitting concrete in half, extending from the Ghoul’s back, just stopped right in front of Duanmu Huai’s clothes, as if hitting a thick city wall, unable to advance any further.

At the same time, a voice rang out.

“Who did you say was disgusting and tasteless?”

Duanmu Huai looked up, his expression cold, as he stretched out his hand and grabbed the four stabbing tentacles–their sharp edges not even scratching the skin of his hands, held firmly in his grip!

“Do you think you’re good-looking? You filthy, ugly mongrel!”

The next moment, with Duanmu Huai’s roar, his arm muscles bulged as he yanked back forcefully, pulling the Ghoul in front of him into the air. Grasping the tentacles tightly, he flung the Ghoul. It spun towards Duanmu Huai as if it were a yo-yo thrown into the air.

“You…!!”

Clearly, this spectacle took the Ghoul completely by surprise. It never imagined that this man, who appeared to be a mere human without a Kakuhou Weapon, would possess strength far beyond its own!

“Die! You lowlife!!”

Duanmu Huai clenched his right fist and punched directly at the Ghoul’s cheek. Accompanied by a crisp sound of bone fracture, the Ghoul’s entire skull was shattered by Duanmu Huai’s blow, its face rapidly deformed and twisted, skin tearing apart, the head turning into a rotten, caved-in watermelon in the blink of an eye.

But it was evidently not over yet.

“You think you’re worth it?!”

Duanmu Huai threw another punch, smashing the Ghoul to the ground. Then he stepped on its body and pulled hard with both hands!

“You dare to spew nonsense to me, a man-eating monster?!”

Duanmu Huai roared and yanked hard, pulling out the four tentacles from the Ghoul’s spine as easily as uprooting leaves with roots from the ground!

“AAAAHHHHHHH!!!!”

For the Ghoul, their Kakuhou and tentacles were their essence, and Duanmu Huai’s attack was like ripping out their heart. Even the formidable S-Class Ghoul let out an uncontrollable scream. However, Duanmu Huai turned a deaf ear, tossing away the limp tentacles in his hand and then stretching out his right hand to tear through the Ghoul’s bulletproof skin and muscle, reaching deep inside to grasp its spine and with a forceful pull–!! The white spine was yanked straight out of the Ghoul’s body!

“Die! You lowly scum!”

Then, Duanmu Huai, holding the bloodied spine, coldly looked at the writhing lump of flesh under his foot and thrust it fiercely into its head!

“Thump!!”

The spine pierced straight through the Ghoul’s skull, embedding it firmly into the ground, and in that instant, the Ghoul’s screams were cut short, turning into a silent, lifeless corpse.

“……………”

Seeing this, everyone involuntarily swallowed hard.

At this moment, they dared not speak a word.
