The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human?
Chapter 201 - 200 Ultimate Bliss and Hell Broth

Chapter 201: Chapter 200 Ultimate Bliss and Hell Broth

The residual force on the knife caused Chen Xiaoxue’s head to roll to one side.

However, as Liu Zheng was about to bend down to pick it up, the skull rapidly melted and merged into the fungal blanket.

Then, an identical head grew out from the same spot.

"So that’s how it is."

He sighed.

Chen Xiaoxue was this fungal blanket. As long as the fungal blanket remained, she would not die.

In some ways, she was the mother nest of these insects.

Liu Zheng suspected that if he could not kill Chen Xiaoxue, he would likewise be unable to destroy the fungal blanket.

Fortunately, he still held the security guard’s last resort in his hand.

Liu Zheng extended his tentacle, and a white pill stuck to its tip.

He presented the pill to Chen Xiaoxue, who stared intently at the pill, her jaws tightly clenched.

Now, like those naked insects, she was reduced to mere biological instincts.

And among biological instincts, the strongest was the instinct to survive.

Liu Zheng could use violence, but if possible, he did not want to do so.

The living indeed have dignity, but the dead also require a final respect.

"This is from your editor,"

he said after a moment’s thought.

Chen Xiaoxue’s gaze moved from the pill to Liu Zheng, and then she suddenly howled.

The howl was so terrifying, filled with boundless love and attachment, and the resulting hatred and despair.

Her face contorted like an abstract painting, her streaming tears and snot made her look even more hideous.

Yet Liu Zheng showed no sign of disdain.

He just quietly watched as Chen Xiaoxue’s hysteria gradually calmed, then he swung his knife again, decapitating her.

The old head melted again, and a new one grew once more.

Liu Zheng handed over the "Ultimate Bliss" pill to Chen Xiaoxue once again; this time, she calmly opened her mouth and swallowed the pill.

Soon, she closed her eyes, the corners of her mouth bearing a faint smile.

He thought for a moment and then took a picture with the DV camera.

Loud insect noises filled Liu Zheng’s ears from all directions.

He looked up, all the insects had abandoned encircling the Spirit Bomb and started fleeing.

Because the Insect Nest was dead.

Their purposely suppressed humanity also began to dominate regardless of intelligence.

Seeing this, the eight Spirit Bombs stopped their pursuit and instead chased after the fleeing insects.

They all took off, surely they were going to bomb something.

As for who they were bombing, it didn’t matter~

Liu Zheng glanced back at the fungal blanket. Even though there was no change on the surface, he could still feel the vitality of the fungal blanket dimming, thanks to his heightened perception.

Yet, it was just dimming.

If the insects find another "Insect Nest," the fungal blanket might rejuvenate.

It was time to finish this.

He quickly climbed up the tank, returning to the cabin.

"Captain Maria, you can finish up now,"

Liu Zheng said.

"Kasichen, load the ’Hell’s Broth’,"

Captain Maria commanded.

The loader immediately dragged out the green shell and stuffed it into the cannon’s breach.

"Fire!"

The shell shot out of the barrel, but the barrel itself gradually became translucent, leaving only a green flame that landed on Chen Xiaoxue’s head.

The woman’s head instantly turned into a pool of continuously boiling poison.

Then, endless green fire spread in all directions, instantly covering the entire fungal blanket, continuing its spread towards the jungle.

And wherever the green flame stuck, be it the fungal blanket or the soil and plants, all turned into boiling poison.

Every bursting bubble emitted a puff of toxic smoke that rose skyward.

Meanwhile, the fleeing insects kept falling from the sky like dumplings.

And those that fell inevitably became part of the boiling poison broth.

"What a pot of Hell’s Broth."

Liu Zheng clicked his tongue in admiration.

With this toxic fire and water resolving, the 11th floor was as good as done.

His original plan had been to collapse the 11th floor entirely, but this result was better.

Liu Zheng looked at this hellish scene and sighed softly.

There surely were other staff on the 11th floor, but he had no time to search for them one by one.

"Let’s go."

He said calmly.

The tank turned around on the spot, stirring up a splash.

Fortunately, the surface of the tank was covered with a layer of black halo; the splashing water slid off without damaging it in the least.

"Little Kitten" sprinted all the way to the elevator at high speed.

He pressed the button, and the elevator doors quickly opened.

Liu Zheng hesitated for a moment, surprised to find the same elevator attendant inside.

Hadn’t he given her the address of the clinic?

As Liu Zheng pondered, the elevator attendant, clutching her abdominal wound, struggled to press the button for the first floor with her shoulder.

"I was afraid you wouldn’t make it down."

She whispered in an almost inaudible voice.

"What’s your name?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Jennifer,"

the elevator attendant replied.

"Remember this, I’m Liu Zheng. If we meet again, you might not be so lucky to survive,"

he said, tapping the attendant’s cheek with the bloodstained tip of his knife.

The elevator attendant lowered her head pretending to be scared, yet her face broke into a radiant smile.

Getting involved with a man who had destroyed the 11th floor was worth it.

The elevator soon reached the first floor, the doors opened, and the tank quickly squeezed out.

The lobby was still a mess from the impact, and the security guard was still sitting there, motionless.

The tank slowly approached the security guard, and Liu Zheng crawled out of the cabin.

"Is it done?"

the security guard asked.

"It’s done. This is her last appearance,"

he showed the photo of Chen Xiaoxue to the security guard.

The security guard glanced once, then again, and finally one last time.

"Alright. Take it, this is all I have left."

He plunged his hand into his own brain, then yanked out a semi-illusory book.

There was no title on the cover, only an image of a person sitting in front of a computer.

"Name: Editor’s Insights (Disposable)"

"Type: Item"

"Quality: Excellent"

"Effect: After use, gain some editing insights, contents and sources related to the user’s understanding."

"Note: As a former gold medal editor, he could understand a book in three minutes, but took three years to understand a person."

"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"

This item might actually be useful for a novelist.

Liu Zheng silently pocketed it.

"Hurry up, I can’t hold on much longer."

The security guard said indifferently.

"Safe travels."

He left his final blessing, then retracted back into the tank.

The tank turned again, then roared as it charged towards the office building’s main gate.

The moment the tank burst through the gate, the security guard’s figure also rapidly turned into a digital human form made of 0s and 1s, which was sucked into the phone on the desk.

Then, the phone exploded loudly.

Immediately after, rapid footsteps echoed in the office building. The blocked defense mechanism finally activated.

But all this was no longer of any concern to Liu Zheng.

The return journey was smooth sailing, but this was what he had expected.

With the Bloody Restaurant’s tank and the Red Ghost’s crew, not to mention wild creatures like the fly people and funeral old lady, even street cleaners and green vest workers from the City Hall might not dare to provoke him.

However, Liu Zheng didn’t head directly back to the restaurant, but first went to the Mummy Clinic.

The Sphinx, which was lying down, sprang up at the sight of the distant tank, its fur bristling like a hedgehog’s as it let out a menacing roar at the tank.

"It’s me."

He popped out of the tank’s roof to soothe it.

"Oh."

The Sphinx responded lightly, then lay back down, its bristled fur flattening again.

Liu Zheng didn’t say much, carrying the cleaning supply ammo box into the clinic.

"I thought someone was causing trouble."

The Doctor Nile, wielding two gem-curved knives and clad in golden armor like a warrior, said exasperatedly.

"Ahaha. So, are you short on staff here?"

He chuckled awkwardly.

"Could be, could not be. Who do you want to bring in?"

Doctor Nile asked.

"A friend of mine, just rescued her from her company. I’d like her to work here."

Liu Zheng said.

"Male or female?"

"Female."

"Oh. Wait, not the one you mentioned who swings both ways, right?"

Doctor Nile asked cautiously.

"No, no, I sent her off to be a tutor."

He quickly responded.

"Are you a delivery guy or a human resource agency?"

Doctor Nile couldn’t help but mock.

"Tough times, skills keep one buoyant."

Liu Zheng said with a smile.

"Alright, but just so you know, I’ll try to arrange easy tasks for her because of you. But if she still can’t do the job, I’ll have to let her go."

Doctor Nile pondered and said.

"No problem."

He pressed a button on the ammo box’s latch, and it popped open automatically.

Liu Zheng stretched out tentacles and pulled out Cheng Xiaomei and Xiao Li.

"Where is this?"

Cheng Xiaomei asked after regaining her shape.

"This is Doctor Nile’s clinic; you’ll work here from now on. Be diligent, don’t embarrass me,"

he instructed.

"Okay."

Cheng Xiaomei looked at Doctor Nile and responded softly.

In the Metropolis, everyone needed a job.

With Liu Zheng’s antics, it would be difficult for her to find a related office job now.

"Your friend, there seems to be something unclean inside her."

Doctor Nile said after scanning Cheng Xiaomei.

"Can you handle it?"

He frowned slightly.

"Just some parasites, a small matter, a little of my old feces mixed with bile will cleanse it right out."

Doctor Nile confidently said.

"Uh, okay. By the way, can you bury the dead here?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"You mean her?"

Doctor Nile pointed at Xiao Li on the ground.

"That’s right."

"I can, but she’ll need to be made into a mummy."

Doctor Nile said.

"Then do it."

Being mummified was better than being recycled.

"Note down my number, contact me if you need anything."

Liu Zheng looked at Cheng Xiaomei and gave her his number, which she silently noted.

"That’s it, I’m off. Got a ton of things to handle."

He sighed.

Cheng Xiaomei gave him a reproachful look, but ultimately said nothing.

After leaving the clinic, Liu Zheng quickly returned to the delivery passage via the tank.

When the tank’s engine ceased roaring, all crew members stood up.
