Unstoppable Crushing: Starting from Adding Points in Dreams-Chapter 10 - Faceless

Trouble!

!!

In the eerie silence, the piercing footsteps sound abrupt and abnormal.

Chen Feng's heart tightens as he quickly turns his head to look.

On the asphalt road, three meters away, the black fog churns like a whirlpool.

Amidst the tap-tap of footsteps, the stiff figure of a man emerges.

Wearing a tattered blue jacket and trousers, his body is covered in stains and what appears to be dried bloodstains.

The exposed skin of his neck is festering, as if plagued with thick sores.

The entire face lacks features, presenting only a pale shape.

"What the hell is that!"

His gaze filled with shock and doubt, Chen Feng feels his vision violently assaulted.

The next second.

Tap tap!

Tap tap tap!

The figure of the Faceless suddenly quickens its pace, its body bending slightly forward as it lunges at him like a wild beast.

A foul stench assails his nostrils, and a bone-chilling coldness rises from within.

With hair standing on end, Chen Feng hurriedly sidesteps.

Bang!

Immediately, the figure of the Faceless misses its mark and crashes into the iron railing of an apartment building.

Iron filings spray, the ground trembles slightly.

Yet, peculiarly, the figure behaves as though unharmed, quickly struggling to its feet and charging at Chen Feng once more.

"Monster!"

He curses under his breath, gauging the Faceless's strength and speed.

A bit stronger than the average person, but nothing too outrageous.

In other words, he might be able to handle it.

So...

Run!

Without hesitation, Chen Feng takes off running.

The appearance of the other is too bizarre; he cannot be sure if it possesses other techniques and abilities, naturally, he must carefully probe and observe.

Tap tap tap!

Immediately, the sound of their footsteps echoes down the street, Chen Feng quickly reaching the iron gate of the front yard of the house where he started.

Whoosh!

As if sensing his intent to seek refuge inside, the Faceless leaps with force, lunging forward once more, aiming directly for the entrance of the gate.

"Damn it!"

Not expecting the other to leap and pounce such a great distance, effectively blocking his entry, Chen Feng's expression darkens as he is forced to retreat.

Bang!

Once more, the Faceless pounces into emptiness, its head mechanically twisting a full three hundred sixty degrees with a click.

The sight of the pale, featureless visage unnerves Chen Feng as he feels a chill in his heart.

Click!

The next second, the Faceless's body suddenly twists, forcefully aligning with its head.

Then, with a push from its legs, it lunges again.

Whoosh!

In this critical moment, Chen Feng sidesteps to the left and evades, his grip on the Finger Tiger so tight that sweat begins to surface on his palms.

He has a strong intuition.

He'd better not die in this Dream Realm; otherwise, something awful might happen.

Bang!

The Faceless steadies itself after missing its target and rapidly takes steps to charge again.

Seeing this, Chen Feng clenches his teeth.

The sense of mastery in Sandboxing surfaces in his mind, and the dagger at his waist bolsters his confidence.

Since there's no avoiding it, it's time to fight!

Whoosh!

In an instant, amidst a flash of lightning and thunder, the Faceless closes the distance rapidly. Chen Feng clearly sees it raising its arm, aiming for his neck.

Instinctively, the Step Technique of Sandboxing emerges in his mind.

He makes a left step; his body ducks slightly, brushing past the incoming palm.

The stench is pungent, even the dirt under the nails and the remnants of what appears to be flesh are visible.

Whoosh!

The next second.

Chen Feng suppresses his disgust, pushes down stray thoughts, with only one idea in mind.

Strike!

!!

All his Strength converges; he twists his waist and clenches the Finger Tiger.

With a sinking shoulder and elbow, the muscles in his right arm propelled the entire fist forward, suddenly booming out like a cannonball.

Boom!

!!!

The fist, adorned with Finger Tiger, hit the Faceless figure's featureless head without any obstruction.

Crack!

A sound like bones fracturing rippled through the air as the Faceless figure's head violently twisted, forced back a couple of steps by the powerful impact.

Seeing this, Chen Feng's eyes lit up.

It worked!

Heartened, he immediately Stepped forward, seizing the opportunity to launch his left fist.

Boom!

A dull sound echoed, striking the head of the Faceless figure accurately.

Blood seemed to spurt, but unfortunately, the world was too dim to see clearly.

Immediately after, within his line of sight.

The Faceless figure staggered, retreating backwards like a drunken man.

Chen Feng, not daring to be careless or hold back, had the killing move of Sandboxing etched in his mind.

"Die!"

With a fierce gaze, Chen Feng advanced again with another Step, clenching his five fingers around the Finger Tiger.

In his eyes, the Faceless figure became like a punching bag, the world fell silent, leaving only the Chong Quan striking like a long spear.

Boom!!!

A muffled explosion resounded, sending the body of the Faceless figure flying backward before it collapsed to the ground.

Chen Feng remained vigilant, Stepping forward, ready to land another blow.

But then, the next second.

The decaying flesh on the neck of the Faceless figure suddenly writhed, followed by a finger-thick beam of Black Bug shooting out toward him with incredible speed.

Buzz!

Goosebumps rose, as Chen Feng felt a chill run down his spine.

With fists protecting the sides of his face, he sunk his weight and swerved sharply to the side.

Whoosh!

The black light sliced through the air, narrowly missing him.

Upon closer inspection, it was apparent that the black light consisted of a swarm of tiny Black Bugs, which had embedded themselves firmly into the iron-grilled brick pillar behind him.

The sizzling sound of decay could be heard, and visibly, the red bricks rapidly hollowed, forming holes.

Foul grey vapors rose from the pits, filling the air with their stench.

By the time Chen Feng focused his gaze again, that swarm of ant-like Black Bugs had vanished, leaving behind only a pool of decaying Black Water.

"What on earth is this thing..."

His mind swirled with astonishment, and Chen Feng quickly turned his wary eyes back to the collapsed Faceless figure.

Contrary to his expectation, the figure did not rise or struggle.

Instead, its body rapidly decomposed, turning to ash in a short while and leaving a grey Talent Light Group in its place.

Such a scene was astonishing, and Chen Feng looked at the grey Talent Light Group with some hesitation.

What is this thing?

Could it be one of the collectible light groups?

The sudden appearance of the Black Bugs and the way the Faceless figure's corpse vanished was too peculiar.

Chen Feng's gaze wavered, worried that touching it might turn him into a faceless monster as well.

Buzz!

In a blink, as he hesitated and pondered, the Talent Light Group suddenly moved and flew towards him.

Chen Feng was startled, but found he couldn't dodge; he could only watch as the grey Talent Light Group merged into his body.

[You have obtained a Talent Light Group: Perception!]

[Talent instinct left behind by the Monster Faceless!]

[Talent integration successful!]

[Perception +1!]

[Your Perception has improved! You can now sense spiritual and malicious intents within a certain range, and perceive ill will directed at you up close...]

[Talent Growth Conditions: Slay more Faceless figures to obtain new Perception-related Talent Light Groups!]

Text prompts appeared swiftly, and Chen Feng's worries dissipated in an instant.

"It's actually a Talent Light Group?"

"So, the monster just now is called Faceless?"

Raising an eyebrow, Chen Feng clearly felt that he had gained a new instinct.

The patterns on the stone bricks of the surrounding streets became clearer, including the remains within the pit in the decayed brick pillar, the pool of Black Water—he could see the dense remains of insect carcasses more easily than before.

"Is this the enhancement of Perception?"

Chen Feng squinted, instinctively turning his head to look across the street at an apartment shrouded in murky mist.

He had an intuition that other light groups, those so-called spiritual and Spiritual remains, must be there.

This was a sensation he had not had before, evidently a change brought about by the integration of the Talent.

Then, just as he was trying to adjust to and further explore this Talent, the world before his eyes suddenly blurred, everything twisted and spun.

Eventually, the familiar ceiling appeared before him, and he had returned to the world of reality.
