Chapter 15 - Feral Screams

Status: "The champion, Cho'Gath, that you have fused with has a virtual stomach. All extra food will be stored there and continuously digested."

"Does this mean I can eat with no limits?!"

Li Rui's eyes turned bright.

The digested energy would become health points which would further become extra lives.

This meant that he could eat however much he wanted without becoming fat. As a foodie, nothing would make him happier than this.

Then, Li Rui looked at his attribute bar.

HP: 58/73 [Undigested Extra Life: 150 points] (Minor injury – recovering)

He originally thought that it would take several days for his condition to heal but now it looks like he would be completely recovered within 24 hours.

He was able to quickly recover from his injuries just by eating. It looked like [Feast]was a good passive skill!

Li Rui was happily thinking about his future of eating delicious food all over the world as he hailed a cab and returned home.

On the other hand, in the kitchen of the buffet restaurant, there was a table that was meant for the dirty dishes. There was already a mountain of dirty dishes piled together.

The manager and the other waitresses surrounded the table and their faces showed all sorts of emotions.

If it weren't because they saw it with their own eyes, they wouldn't believe that all of those dishes were for a single person!

"Mr Yee, the numbers are out already. A total of 237 dishes, all of which are standard portions which add up to more than 40 kg!"

"He even had it with 9 tubs of rice and 12 jugs of fresh juice…"

The tone of the waiter became softer. He felt like he was in a dream.

Only an elephant, a fully grown African elephant, would be able to finish so much food!

Speaking of elephants, the waiter who was dressed in casual clothes thought about the scene that he saw in the toilet and his face turned even darker.

Elephant why do you have such a long nose…

"Wang, you went into the toilet with him. What happened inside?" Yee Zhengcheng asked out of curiosity as he stared at the plates on the table.

Wang, who was in his casual clothes, shook his head.

"There was no vomiting. He only peed in the toilet, but…"

"But what?"

"He peed for more than two minutes like an open faucet."

He thought of how Li Rui's faucet opened like the Three Gorges Dam. He actually believed that Li Rui had eaten everything into his stomach.

"He also went to the toilet several times before this but none of us followed him. Perhaps at that time…"

The chef stood at the side and spoke hesitantly. He really couldn't believe that one person could eat up so much food.

"No matter what, we did actually see it with our own eyes. He ate all the food by himself. I don't care what secrets there are behind it."

Yee Zhengcheng waved his hand to interrupt him.

They were at different levels. There was some information that he knew which allowed him to think from a different angle.

Perhaps, that child is 'one of their kind'!

A trace of excitement ran through his heart as he longed to be in that circle.

But, unfortunately, that mysterious circle was very secluded and was not open to ordinary people.

 Even if it wasn't their kind, only those who were top gangsters would have a chance of squeezing into the circle.

 Yee Zhengcheng knew that even though his net worth was presentable, it still wasn't enough.

 If only he could find a chance from this child…

 Yee Zhengcheng shivered with excitement.

  ...

Creak.

Li Rui carefully opened the door and felt the switch on the wall. He realised that the switch was turned on, but the lights were still off.

A circuit trip?

Li Rui frowned. He looked at the time through the dim moonlight outside the window.

Because he took a long time for dinner, along with the journey back home, it was already midnight.

Li Wei was probably asleep, and he didn't want to disturb her.

Li Rui looked for the toolbox in the dark. He wanted to have a look at the electric book to know what happened.

Suddenly, Li Rui could smell a faint stench.

The smell was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he smelled it before.

He became alert and slowly walked towards the living room as he followed the smell. As he got closer to Li Wei's room, the smell became even stronger.

When he stood directly in front of Li Wei's room, the disgusting smell finally reached its peak.

Li Rui finally remembered where he smelled the same thing.

The nightmare he had last night!

The smell of a corpse!

Adrenaline rushed through his entire body and all his veins popped out. He had a bad feeling in his stomach.

As he was becoming more anxious, his mind became calmer.

He opened the door quietly and saw a horrifying scene.

A translucent, rotting phantom figure was standing in front of Li Wei's bed. It stooped forward and was pulling out large chunks of bloody-looking things from the bed which was immediately placed into its mouth.

Because of its cruelty and greed, the phantom figure continued swallowing everything that was in its claws and did not notice Li Rui who was entering the room.

But, with the help of the dim moonlight through the window, Li Rui could see what was on the claws.

Those looked like… organs.

His sister's organs.

Li Wei's organs…

Boom! The last sensible string in Li Rui broke!

Something exploded in his body. Li Rui's eyes were cracked and there was blood coming out from the corner of his eyes.

The explosive force in him tore open the meridians in his body and in an instant, all of the forces gathered around his throat.

 Mana, life, soul, blood…

Everything fused together and turned into a horrifying scream!

"Roar!"

Boom!

The windows of all the buildings within a hundred meters radius exploded and all of the sound-controlled lights were turned on.

As if they were destroyed by an invisible force, all the vehicle's headlights were flashing like crazy and all the alarms went off.

The people were awakened from their sleep. They were crying and screaming. Along with the arms outside the window, it was a scene like the end of the world.

Back in the room, a visible wave spread from Li Rui's throat towards the phantom. It crushed the phantom and almost tore it into pieces in an instant.

It finally managed to stabilise itself, but the figure was so dim that it was almost transparent.

"Die!"

The blood-filled eyes were now only filled with hatred and Li Rui didn't have the time to think of what was standing in front of him.

He only wanted it dead!

He wanted it dead in the cruelest and brutal method!

He instantly stood in front of the figure and violently punched the figure's head.

[Grasp of the Undying]activated!

Xiu~

Along with a suctioning sound that was imperceptible by others, a virtual emerald green particle evaporated from the figure and emerged in Li Rui's body.

An additional 10 points magical damage inflicted.

Permanent health point +1!

The powerful magic power inflicted had caused major damages to the figure. It was finally able to gather itself like smoke, but the figure was turning more transparent and it was no longer able to maintain its own form.

"Awakener, you can't kill me. I'm the master's slave…"

As the rotten ghost figure roared in horror, the smile on Li Rui's face became even scarier. 

However, the only thing that was in his eyes was killing intent that was even fiercer and more vicious than any evil spirits!
