Chapter 382: Chapter 381 Voidification Chapter 382: Chapter 381 Voidification [Deep in the Mansion]

Ominous and illusory tentacles were shattered by a powerful spiritual force and forcibly stuffed back into Galon’s abdomen,

thereby causing the terrifying demon fetus to vanish and fall back to where it belonged.

Moreover,

Galon’s killing intent was also at full throttle. His mouth was moving rapidly, angrily speaking a language that none of the attendees could understand, clearly conversing with something inside him.

With the situation having developed to this point,

having witnessed two completely different monsters and having glimpsed the ‘Inner World’, Yi Chen could almost make a definitive conclusion:

Galon and he were of the same kind, connected closely to another world for some reason, capable of displaying things from that world on this side.

Yi Chen was even somewhat excited, eager to engage in a conversation with Galon about the Otherworld.

Of course,

the primary objective at the moment was to win this final advancement.

Just then,

the normally reticent Galon switched to a type of language everyone could understand–English. His scattered gaze became focused, and he also made a gentleman’s bow.

“I truly apologize~ I underestimated the standard of this year’s candidates. From now on, I will take this [Final Advancement] seriously.”

Upon hearing this, the expressions on Yi Chen and Mandy’s faces were extremely unsightly, “Has this guy not been serious all along?”

At that moment, Galon’s heavy eyelids, which were full of black rings, ‘closed’, an all too ordinary action for any normal person, but for Galon, it was exceedingly rare.

By all accounts, he probably hadn’t closed his eyes for several years.

It wasn’t just his eyes,

Galon’s mouth also completely closed up, even retracting his lips inward.

Concurrently,

a lipless mouth with a ringed tooth-like structure emerged in the middle of his palm, emitting a sharp sound through the friction of its pointed teeth.

SSRestriction Removal – VoidificationSS

As these words were spoken,

almost simultaneously, everyone within the church heard a ‘door opening’ sound. If one were to trace the origin of the sound, they’d find it coming from within the Insomniac Galon.

A totally different kind of restriction removal was occurring on him.

The main changes were in three areas:

1.[Face]- All his gentleman’s clothes flowed towards his face, causing the entire face to ‘collapse’. The facial features, together with the gentleman’s clothes, sank into the face… The whole face appeared like an indented deep pit, and something emerged from within.

It was a ‘sunflower’

A sunflower surrounded by yellow petals, whose center was packed with numerous dense ‘sunflower seeds’ forming a biological structure, emerged from the deep recesses of the face, covering Galon’s entire face, or rather becoming his brand new face.

However, those dense sunflower seeds were a tender flesh color and were even slightly wriggling, chaotic, lively, and full of vitality.

From different angles, the seeds presented diverse appearances,

resembling tiny eyes, or clusters of miniature brain tissue.

2.[Arm]- Due to the disappearance of his clothes, bare-chested Galon had a series of crisscrossing lines appear on the surface of his arms, which quickly turned into gaps and green fluid flowed out.

Gradually,

the gaps widened into bizarre mouths that opened,

structurally similar to the monster that had tried to devour Yi Chen earlier, or rather, the monster’s mouth was completely combined with Galon’s arm.

3.[Lower Limbs]- Around Galon’s waist and abdomen, a ring-shaped fissure tore open like measuring waist size. From these gaps grew a priestly long skirt made of a material between skin and flesh,

the top end was black, turning to a deep green toward the hem,

and the end of the hem connected to strange, meat-like tentacles.

This long skirt entirely enveloped Galon’s lower body,

and as the green meat-tentacles fully unfurled, an anti-gravity effect emerged, allowing Galon to float in the air.

The transformation was complete!

As Galon floated in the air in such a posture, he seemed no longer a creature of this world, yet his human nature remained rooted here, and his form was barely maintained as a “human”.

Not only did Yi Chen and Mandy, his opponents, stand there stunned, sweating profusely,

but even the audience on the observation platform was struck by such a change,

Principal Deslin, with her legs crossed, felt the sweat seep out from between them again, and with a slight twitch of her face under the mask, she said,

“So this is the Organization’s latest draft of ‘Special Record Combat Power’… This pose has transcended the Organization’s original understanding of him. Is this the realm he has reached after years of living abroad?

He’s now able to negotiate with the chaotic beings of another world,

using the ‘Gentleman’s Skin’ as a physical stabilizer,

and his innate spiritual power as a consciousness stabilizer,

to Combine with these monsters while retaining the essence of human nature, borrowing their alien ability for ‘Restriction Removal’.

Is this why you, Galon, suddenly chose to participate in ‘Skin Promotion’?

Ordinary ‘Gentleman’s Skin’ is limited in strength and flexibility, capable only of the simplest World Connections, but if you could establish a relationship with the First Gentleman and the Skin Factory, you could get purer skin from there, to help you develop deeper levels of World Connection, right?

Your ascension might indeed bring great changes to the Organization,

I should not have let William participate in this Skin Promotion, Galon’s involvement has already changed the essence of the promotion.”

…

“I don’t want to fight anymore, I want to go home~ I need to go back to making dummies, I haven’t met this month’s target yet…”

Mandy’s killing intent wavered as she spoke these rather negative words.

On the other hand, the killing intent related to death grew even stronger.

“You want to give up such an opportunity for slaughter? This form can neither be classified as human nor as a Patient… it’s something we’ve never seen before, and slaughtering it might have a different flavor.”

Mandy glanced at William beside her as if looking at a Madman, “Hey! Aren’t you afraid of dying? Fighting this guy, we could really end up dead.”

“What’s there to be afraid of,

besides, I can feel that Galon’s human nature is still present, and the gentlemanly courtesy just now was quite standard… Since it’s a duel between gentlemen, I trust he’ll gauge things properly.

Just like you said before, Mandy, at most we’d end up whittled down to mere sticks.

Of course,

if you’ve lost your will to fight and don’t want to continue, leave now… I’ll try him on my own. Once Galon becomes the First Gentleman, there won’t be such an opportunity.”

Mandy clenched her teeth and finally calmed down.

“Let’s do this!”

The two almost simultaneously stomped the ground,

their bent knees and compressed ankle tendons springing them toward the walls on either side of the church, then using the walls to rebound with a flipping jump,

attacking Galon from two completely opposite directions simultaneously,

at that moment, the sunflowers growing on Galon’s face began to move,

half of the ‘sunflower seeds’ turned towards Yi Chen, the other half towards Mandy.

Hum!

An odd and bizarre psychic attack hit in an instant,

it was neither the kind of hook line that could induce sleep nor the usual assault of spiritual power… but a higher rank, weirder use of spiritual power that did not belong to this world.

‘Sowing’

And there was no process or path; it took effect directly, utterly unblockable.

In a blink, Yi Chen and Mandy found themselves in a plantation,

except they were buried in the ground, unable to move… or rather, the soil here was composed of various living creatures.

As a monster with a sunflower-shaped head passed by them, it plucked ‘seeds’ from its face and skillfully inserted them into the heads of the two.

The sunflower seeds quickly sucked nutrients from the brain, sprouting and growing through the facial features to break through the skull and face the sun.
