72: Chapter 72 Since we're here, let's make the best of it.
After the white light descended, the previously arrogant and domineering Cyst Demon suddenly stiffened all over, followed by a scream like a slaughtered pig.
"What the hell is this! Let me out!"
The Cyst Demon's massive body writhed frantically in the white light, but it was to no avail; he was completely unable to control his body at this moment, much less withdraw his consciousness to return to his Divine Kingdom.
Having broken through to the demigod level for many years, he had never encountered such a situation. A sense of immense terror that made his whole body break out in cold sweat surged into his heart.
What was most fatal was that a Blood-Sucking Vine covered in thorns was rapidly approaching in front of him, and he also realized what was about to happen next.
His rough voice revealed obvious terror: "Ah! No! I don't want that!"
Gu Han frowned slightly.
Huh? How can this thing still talk?
In the past, when using [Forced Breeding], whether it was the Orcs or the transcendent Sapiens, none of them would make a sound.
Wait! Gu Han suddenly realized.
This Cyst Demon had an consciousness projection of a demigod-level powerhouse attached within him!
This meant that the opponent's Divine Master consciousness had not been repelled by the Divine Kingdom skill; instead, it had been imprisoned by the skill along with the Cyst Demon's shell!
Damn! How is this skill even more overbearing than he imagined? Even the Divine Master consciousness cannot be extracted.
He had never encountered this situation before, and he thought that after Forced Breeding, the opponent would immediately disconnect from the believer.
But Gu Han couldn't be happy; this was really troublesome.
He thought this was just a delivery guy, but he didn't expect to have roped in the shopkeeper as well. If this Cyst Demon was drained dry and the Divine Master consciousness returned to the main body, wouldn't his [Forced Breeding] secret be exposed?
Thinking of this, Gu Han suddenly panicked; he had to quickly think about how to handle it!
"Level 2 Sapiens could endure decades of high-intensity Reproduction back then. This Level 6 transcendent creature has a solid foundation; he should be able to endure for a few hundred years."
Gu Han muttered to himself. He would not be soft-hearted; from the moment this person invaded his Divine Kingdom, he had come with malicious intent.
Gu Han knew very well that if he didn't have this divine skill to fall back on today, his painstaking efforts would have been completely destroyed by this bastard.
Gu Han's first thought was to kill this person, but he had no way to deal with him for the time being. He had given him a chance and warned him to retreat earlier, but not only did this person not listen, he even threatened to destroy his Divine Kingdom.
Once the Divine Kingdom's ecology collapsed, even if this person didn't destroy Gu Han's Divine Kingdom Core, he would, at best, become a useless person, and at worst, die directly from a serious illness.
Even if the Ministry of Education initiated an investigation under the Student Protection Law afterwards, that would be a matter for the future. He would already be dead, so no matter how severe the punishment, it would be useless, and no amount of compensation could bring him back to life.
Since you want my life, don't blame me for being ruthless.
Gu Han brought up the smart assistant panel and opened the trading software, scrolling rapidly.
The Cyst Demon had already finished the first batch and was proceeding to the second group. His voice already carried a sobbing tone: "Big Brother! I was wrong, Big Brother! What kind of sorcery is this! Stop quickly, I won't collect the debt anymore, okay! I want to go home!"
Gu Han turned a deaf ear and directly placed an order for a bunch of disgusting species.
Mud maggots, dung beetles, carrion-eating skunks, etc.—he bought whatever was disgusting. These were all species that could be bought in bulk for a few dozen credits.
"I gave you a chance. Since you're already here, I have to let you experience my full combo skill."
Gu Han clicked on the smart assistant's settings panel, changed the Cyst Demon's matching object from a single species to "Random Species," and incidentally set all the disgusting species he had just bought to priority.
The Cyst Demon let out a scream of extreme misery: "What are you doing! Don't come over—!"
Gu Han directly muted the sounds of the external species, and the whole world instantly became quiet.
Listening to him scream so miserably, he should also be able to empathize when the Cyst Demon communicates with the plants.
If I can't kill you, I will destroy you completely mentally. By the time this demigod consciousness is driven mad and returns, it probably won't be able to think anymore; hundreds of years of consciousness pollution should be enough.
This person had brought death upon himself; Gu Han never added psychological burdens to himself, and he was even happy because new species were about to be born. He carefully arranged everything, then nodded with satisfaction and withdrew his consciousness from the Divine Kingdom.
When returning to the lobby from the restroom, there was a commotion. In the center of the lobby, a circle of people had gathered, and several staff members of the Sea God Pavilion were blocking a well-dressed middle-aged man.
The surrounding diners stopped their chopsticks one after another and whispered. Gu Han glanced twice, then turned and returned to his seat.
Looking at Teacher Qin Lin, he asked: "What's going on?"
"Someone is causing trouble. It seems like they are saying the taste of the meat is wrong, different from what they have eaten elsewhere, and they suspect the restaurant is using fake meat to fool people."
"Fake meat?" Gu Han was stunned for a moment, "The Sea God Pavilion is one of the top three high-end restaurants in Jiangcheng City, how could they use fake meat?"
"Who knows, maybe it's a competitor sending someone to trash the place," Teacher Qin Lin said casually. "But just now, the boss of the Sea God Pavilion came over personally and said that to compensate for everyone's dining experience, tonight's bill would be 20% off."
Gu Han was amused: "There's such a good thing?"
He glanced at the time; it was already 11:30 PM. "Teacher Qin, have you had enough?" Gu Han pulled a tissue to wipe his mouth, "Although tomorrow is the weekend, it's not safe to go back too late. If something goes wrong on the road, we will have to stay in Jiangcheng City again."
Gu Han was eager to return home; his time was precious. If it weren't for his homeroom teacher having helped him so much, he would never have wasted his time on eating.
Teacher Qin Lin's hand holding the water glass shook violently, and the water almost spilled. Her mind instantly flashed back to the time when the two were left in Jiangcheng City by an Otherworld Rift and had to stay in a hotel room; thinking Gu Han was reminding her of something, her expression suddenly became a bit unnatural.
"Uh... I'm full too!" Teacher Qin Lin stood up abruptly, her voice unusually loud, "I'll call the waiter to pack it up!"
Gu Han nodded. They really had ordered a bit too much just now, and several dishes had only been tasted; it would be a waste not to take them.
After Gu Han paid the bill, he asked casually: "Do you have time tomorrow? I..."
"Um, I'm really a bit tired today." Teacher Qin Lin hurriedly interrupted him. She felt that she could no longer have too many private interactions with Gu Han; the more she interacted with Gu Han, the more she wanted to know, which was very bad.
"Alright then, when you have time, I'll find you to spar again. Don't forget we are going to win the championship; you don't want to lose the bet, do you?"
"You heartless person, are you threatening me! Go, go, go! I'll take you back first."
Teacher Qin Lin punched Gu Han on the arm with annoyance.
