Hunter of Mysterious Creature-Chapter 422 - 56: Waste Liquid Pool

"But don't worry, even if it's a physical attack method, I have plenty." As soon as Lilith finished speaking, the earth and rocks beneath the "Deputy Director" suddenly got swept up by an invisible force, instantly enveloping it within, forming a spindle-shaped earthy cocoon.

As the cocoon kept contracting, the sound of bones breaking continuously emanated from inside it. Lilith twisted her hands, and the cocoon that was only shrinking suddenly split into dozens of segments, each beginning to rotate in intersecting directions.

"This magic spell is one I invented myself, it's called the 'Automatic Wall-breaking Machine'... What do you think?" Lilith asked with a smile.

"..." Jiang Yu glanced at the flesh and blood splattering from the gaps in the cocoon; she suddenly felt that she would probably never touch food processed by any wall-breaking machine again.

"You find it quite creative, don't you?" Lilith said to herself, completely ignoring Jiang Yu's slightly twisted expression. She clapped her hands together, and the cocoon instantly shattered, letting a big clump of minced meat mixed with broken bones and filth flow out from the broken earth.

"Huh?" Lilith raised an eyebrow, "It's actually not completely dead?"

"Not... completely dead?" Jiang Yu was startled and immediately raised the hunting knife in her hands, holding it horizontally in front of herself.

As they spoke, a bizarre-shaped monster stood up from the clump of minced meat—the shattered bone fragments adhered together forming a curved spine, and the bits of flesh gathered around it based on the spinal bones.

Countless small flesh sprouts grew from the minced meat, reconstructing all sorts of human-like yet not human organs... Within only a few seconds, a terrifying monster barely discernible as human appeared before the three.

Its legs had mutated into a kneeling posture, with the calves and back thighs completely stuck together, and the spine curved like a towering arch bridge, its head almost touching the ground.

On both sides of the spine, several arms extended out, but each arm was deformed, either undeveloped or even just lumps of flesh without any bones, drooping softly like pieces of rubber pipe beside the monster, evoking in Jiang Yu memories of old photos she once saw: those photos captured by Xiazhou Federation reporters in Dongying's coastal fishing villages showed children affected by radiation pollution, their limbs grew looking much like this.

And the low-hanging head was bizarre to the extreme—it had no skull, revealing gray-white brain matter completely exposed to the air, where what seemed like worm-like fleshy tendrils crawled and squirmed within the brain grooves...

Next to the two bloodshot and swollen eyeballs, gathered a cluster of fish egg-like granules... but Jiang Yu, with the superhuman vision granted by Taishui, could clearly see that these granules each under one millimeter in diameter were actually miniature eyeballs, each with a complete iris and sclera, and connected veins and nerves to the brain.

Jiang Yu believed herself not to be someone with trypophobia, yet seeing the true nature of these granules caused her scalp to tingle and her spine to itch unpleasantly.

If she still had arrows left at this moment, she would undoubtedly shoot them at the monster without hesitation.

But to engage in close combat with the monster wielding only a hunting knife, she felt some resistance inwardly.

Ling Xiao had already unlocked his pistol, aiming the muzzle at the monster struggling to get up.

"Don't shoot!" Lilith immediately yelled to stop, "If you shoot, you'll get killed!"

Ling Xiao seemed unmoved, but he didn't immediately pull the trigger either—he just held the pistol, aiming at the monster a dozen meters away.

"Do not shoot! Leave this creature to me!" Lilith said, then as if remembering something, added, "Even if you want to use your trump card, remember there's an even stronger being within it, wouldn't it be wiser to save it for that?"

After hearing Lilith say this, Ling Xiao withdrew his gun, stepping back a couple of steps.

"How do you plan to deal with it?" Jiang Yu asked, "It can resurrect even after being ground into meat paste, relying solely on physical attack methods might..."

Taishui meme's recovery ability is already quite perverse, but if the infected person suffers brain death, the meme within them will still perish subsequently... let alone being ground into minced meat, mere headshot could be considered lethal to Jiang Yu.

"This creature's magic resistance is remarkably high. My fire-type spells have no effect on it... but if it's real fire, it should be unable to resist... I refuse to believe it can resurrect from a pile of ashes after roasting it!" Lilith exclaimed loudly.

"So you mean... you need fuel?" Jiang Yu finally caught on, "Gasoline! Would gasoline do? There should be some in the tanker trucks parked in the loading area!"

"That bit of gasoline at most could roast it cooked." Lilith shook her head, "But what I need is to burn it completely into ashes!"

"Then... then..." Jiang Yu anxiously looked around, hoping to find something that could serve as a substitute for gasoline.

"Without fuel, something flammable like waste paper, textiles would do!" Lilith suggested.
