Chapter 640: Chapter 334: Water Blue Star, Cockroaches and Rats - Part 2

Zhi Yin half-lay on the sofa, playfully patting the seat beside him.

Qin Shou rolled his eyes, grabbed Zhi Yin by his Dragon Horn, and said, "Go, the bathroom’s still a mess."

Zhi Yin pouted, nodded with a look of grievance. "Oh."

"Clang!"

The bathroom door opened, and Big Big Wolf raised a rag, grinning widely: "Haha, no need, Your Majesty has already cleaned it up."

"Yay, I don’t have to clean the bathroom anymore!"

"Master, I’m going to your room to warm the bed for you..."

Zhi Yin hopped upstairs, leaving behind this statement, which made Qin Shou get goosebumps all over.

Come on, what if he transforms halfway? That’d leave a psychological shadow!

The image was unimaginable.

Shaking his head, Qin Shou sat on the sofa while Big Big Wolf placed a pile of snacks on his head and neatly positioned them in front of Qin Shou, then expertly switched on the TV.

"Gentle Sheep~ Ugly Sheep~ Fluffy Sheep~ Meaty Sheep~ Don’t Think I’m Just a Sheep~"

"La la la la~ Don’t Think I’m Just a Wolf~"

Big Big Wolf watched the cartoon with gusto, humming along unconsciously.

Qin Shou raised the remote and changed the channel.

It sounded awful.

"Hello, viewers, welcome to the Exploring Abnormalities segment. Through the lens, we can see, the reporter has now entered what’s reputed to be the most terrifying Horror House in Jiang City..."

The camera shifted; the pretty hostess disappeared, and the scene transitioned to an eerie and terrifying setting.

In the shaky, unsteady footage under the swaying camera, harrowing human screams occasionally echoed, accompanied by chilling eerie winds.

Suddenly, a creepy face popped into view, startling Qin Shou.

"Damn, this guy’s face makes me wanna punch it!"

A greasy, bloated face leaned into the camera, filled with fear. He said, "Hello, viewers, I’m reporter Zhang Xiaoxiao. We’re now at Jiang City’s most terrifying Horror House. Allegedly, its mysterious owner, Mr. Chen, has chosen to keep his identity under wraps..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the silent corridor began to echo with the sound of chains scraping against the floor.

"Clink... Clink..."

The sound of dragging chains grew closer and closer; the camera shook faster, but viewers could still see Zhang Xiaoxiao’s terrified face up close.

"Oh my God... Is this the rumored Abnormality Hammer from the Horror House?"

Zhang Xiaoxiao looked utterly horrified. The camera shifted back to the dark depths.

Suddenly, eerie green light surged with mist, illuminating the corner of the corridor. A figure wrapped in chains and wielding a colossal hammer loomed into view.

"Boo hoo hoo..."

"Ah..."

"Caw caw caw~"

Winds howled, sending chills down the spine as the sound of ghostly cries resurfaced, accompanied by the screeching sound of iron chains dragging. It made people shiver and their scalp tingle.

The shadow slowly advanced...

"Super Diapers: Genius Won’t Compromise! Super Diapers invites you to watch Exploring Abnormalities. Stay tuned after the commercial for more excitement..."

The advertisement appeared, abruptly cutting off the footage.

Big Big Wolf blinked his large eyes and looked at Qin Shou.

"Dear Master, are the actors on this planet all so amateur?"

He sneered, "Lights, tools, actors, atmosphere, background—none of it meets the standard! No wonder the ratings are abysmal."

Qin Shou waved his hand, "No, no, no! While the story’s weak and the actors are greasy, the common folk eat this stuff up."

"Really?" Big Big Wolf asked hesitantly.

Qin Shou gestured to the corner of the room, "Look, not only do regular folks enjoy it, even the neighbors seem to dig this kind of thing."

Big Big Wolf sniffed the room’s air, his eyes suddenly sharp as ten claws flicked out, their gleaming edges lighting up the entire room.

Qin Shou: "..."

That’s a bit overkill, isn’t it?

"Ah ah ah, how dare you spy on Your Majesty! Prepare to die!"

Big Big Wolf leaped through the air, his figure becoming a blur as he combed through the corners of the room. Chirping noises filled the air instantly.

A few seconds later, Big Big Wolf grabbed a red-eyed, fanged rat in one hand and a bright red cockroach in the other. He grinned widely.

"Haha, so this is an Abnormality? How weak!"

Before he finished speaking, six Abnormality creatures let out sharp screeches, shaking the entire apartment.

Big Big Wolf’s smile froze. The vibrations underfoot and the increasingly close rustling noises sparked a sense of foreboding deep within.

"Dear Master, Your Majesty seems to be in trouble."

As he spoke, the straw hat on Big Big Wolf’s head suddenly fell to the ground.

Qin Shou chuckled, walking to the window. Looking down, he saw an oppressive swarm—rats and cockroaches, two distinct species—climbing the high-rise apartment en masse. Within moments, the building was engulfed in darkness.

Judging by the ferocity of these rats and cockroaches, they probably ate humans regularly.

Though they count as "Abnormalities," their power wasn’t strong. Regular bullets could kill them. Had they not been hidden underground, the city’s armed forces would have eliminated them long ago.

"Heh, this place really is intriguing."

Qin Shou chuckled softly as black and white Tai Chi Energy gathered at his fingertips, enveloping the building in an instant. Countless cockroaches and rats disintegrated into ash, scattering over the withered grass around the apartment.

"Dear Master, what about these two?" Big Big Wolf asked, holding up the two "Abnormalities."

Qin Shou stroked his chin, a flash of inspiration crossing his mind.

"Haha, an apartment without cockroach-rat love isn’t a real Love Apartment."

...

Several days later, at a suburban factory.

Over a thousand armed personnel surrounded the factory. From within came endless gunfire and the occasional appearance of menacing one-meter-wide tentacles, which were promptly shredded by dense bullets.

Behind the armed forces stood a fully-armed, middle-aged man with a weary expression.

"Xiao Zhao, hasn’t the interior situation been clarified yet?" The man spoke into his walkie-talkie.

"Captain, the tentacles are overwhelming; we can’t get close enough to identify what this thing is," Xiao Zhao reported.

The man frowned deeply, picking up another walkie-talkie.

"Xiao Wu, how’s the evacuation?"

"Captain, evacuation complete."

"Good. Xiao Zhao, withdraw now. We’ll deploy large-scale destruction weapons..."

Before he finished speaking, a noise rang out above everyone’s heads.

"Hey, look—what’s that?"

"It’s a person!"

"Impossible, it must be an Abnormality..."

The crowd exclaimed as a wine-red figure streaked through the sky, crackling with electricity, heading toward the factory.

"Xiao Zhao, fall back immediately!"

The man reacted quickly, shouting into the walkie-talkie.

"Captain..."

"Boom..."

The next instant, the ground shook violently as the factory exploded. Several figures were thrown from the fiery wreckage toward the crowd.

The man pushed away the rubble on him, quickly rising to check for casualties.

"Xiao Zhao, are you..."

"Captain, I think I’m fine."

"What did you all see just now?"

"We... We think it was red armor..." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Xiao Zhao replied, and the factory exploded again. A massive giant octopus, covered in black spines and oozing black slime, was thrown out by the blast, crashing to the ground.

"Plop... Plop..."

The giant octopus feebly twitched its single remaining tentacle, letting out a piercing shriek.

Meanwhile, the blazing flames receded. Wrapped in a wine-red figure, someone slowly emerged from the inferno.

"That’s..."

"What is it..."

"Abnormality or human?"

A pressure akin to a vast mountain swept across them. Everyone’s hearts surged; their hands trembled violently as they tried to straighten their backs, their faces flushed red.

"So strong..."

"Is it an Abnormality... or a god..."

Under the collective shock and fear, the wine-red figure slowly raised a finger to the sky. Sunlight abruptly gathered and focused downward, casting the figure in an almost godlike brilliance.

"I’ll give you a chance. Find me, and I can make your evolution faster than Light!"

With a faint smile, the figure let the sunlight intensify dramatically.

When the light returned to normal, everyone rubbed their eyes as if it’d all been a dream.

"Captain, was that just..."

The man waved a hand, his expression solemn.

"Handle this Abnormality. I’ve got to see the commander..."

...

On the apartment rooftop, Qin Shou stood with his hands behind his back, gazing out at the city, his smile radiant.

"The world of tokusatsu must be really interesting!"

At that moment, Big Big Wolf popped his head up from the windowsill, shouting, "Dear Master, there’s a tenant at the door."

"Oh, oh, I’m coming, I’m coming. Go hide; it’s hard enough having someone brave enough to come here. Don’t scare them—they’re paying the rent!"
