99: Chapter 99 Chewing!
Venerable Bai Ye looked at Chen Mo's eyes, which were filled with anger and unwillingness but also a hint of hope, and the morbid feeling in his heart was completely ignited.
"I know what you are thinking."
"It's nothing more than feeling that you've returned to the state before the battle began, wondering if that dead old dog might also come back to life."
"Sorry."
"Dawn-Dusk Separation only works within two meters of my body, and you were just lucky."
Chen Mo squeezed a low, unwilling growl from his throat, climbed back up, and blood-red cracks spread across his entire body once again.
"Alright, I will send you on your way personally."
Venerable Bai Ye ignored Chen Mo, and a dazzling white light shot out.
"I like this kid."
At the same moment, a muffled voice sounded behind Chen Mo, and the white light disappeared after a distortion.
Chen Mo turned his head abruptly and found that he could only see a round belly.
He looked up and saw a giant at least four or five meters tall standing behind him, grinning at him.
The teeth in that person's mouth were completely different from a human's; there were no incisors or molars, only a mouth full of sharp fangs!
"You are Venerable Bai Ye?"
"You smell... delicious."
Commander Chu twitched his nose, and with a hand half the size of a person, he grabbed Venerable Bai Ye, who was standing not far from Chen Mo.
Venerable Bai Ye tried to resist immediately, but he couldn't even shake Commander Chu's fingers.
He could only watch helplessly as he was stuffed into that gaping maw...
"Hmm, it's better to remove the head."
Commander Chu closed his mouth, gave a hard tug, and Venerable Bai Ye's head was twisted right off.
Blood sprayed into the sky, and Commander Chu pressed his fingers onto the severed neck.
Crunch... crunch...
A teeth-grinding and chilling chewing sound rang out. That Venerable Bai Ye, who had been beating them all and had even been tricked, was actually... eaten alive just like that?
"Commander Chu, my advice is to restrain your eating habits a bit."
A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses walked out slowly and sighed helplessly.
"The person in front of you is a candidate from our current National Joint Examination, not your enemy."
"Besides, your mouth is full of blood, and you'll have to use a wire brush to clean your teeth later."
The bespectacled man adjusted his glasses and reached out to pull Chen Mo up from the ground.
"This student, you don't need to be afraid."
"This is the Commander-in-Chief of the Southeast Military Region, Chu Yongji."
"He doesn't eat humans; he only eats all living things other than the human race."
"Hmm... occasionally, when he's extremely hungry, he will also eat inorganic matter to alleviate his hunger."
Chen Mo was even more terrified after hearing this. In Great Xia, everyone who could sit in the position of Commander-in-Chief was, without exception, an Eighth-Grade Martial King.
What was the concept of an Eighth-Grade Martial King?
Chen Mo didn't know, but it sounded incredibly badass anyway.
That Venerable Bai Ye, who had been beating him like a fool, was, in front of this Eighth-Grade Martial King, completely like something you could eat after removing the head—nutritious, with eight times the protein of beef.
"Burp~"
Commander Chu burped and looked down at the young man in front of him.
"Kid, not bad!"
"As a First-Grade Martial Artist, you were actually able to unleash power comparable to a Fourth-Grade Martial Artist."
"That's secondary; just for the courage you showed in throwing a punch at a Seventh-Grade Venerable, I have to give you a thumbs up."
"Besides, this muscular build looks very elastic, it might get stuck in my teeth..."
"Ahem, ahem, ahem!"
The bespectacled man on the side coughed vigorously twice, and only then did Commander Chu realize what he had said.
"Alright, leave the rest to me."
"You little ones have really suffered; you haven't even entered the Martial Academy yet, and you've already experienced something like this."
"However, this is something you will often face in the future. Those bastards of the Abyssal Race don't play by the rules."
Commander Chu reached out and patted Chen Mo's head; he was one of the few people who could reach the top of Chen Mo's head.
"Go get some rest; none of those Abyssal Race members will be able to leave."
After saying that, Commander Chu walked step by step into the high sky.
"This little student, come with me."
The bespectacled man patted Chen Mo's shoulder and led him to hide on the side.
The moment the two of them hid, a violent wind whipped up all around!
Those Abyss Warriors who were entangled in battle with the soldiers inside the fortress flew into the high sky one by one...
No! They didn't fly up themselves!
Damn it, they were being sucked up by something!
"Little student, don't be afraid. Our Commander Chu's talent is called 'Taotie', which is one of the Four Evils that is never full and will eventually eat itself."
"This move is called Heaven Devouring, of course, that's the more refined name."
"In our Commander Chu's words, the real name of this move should be 'Big Mouth Eating'."
"Almost there."
The bespectacled man checked the time.
"The medical team has arrived. Life detection currently shows that except for that Poacher, everyone else still has vital signs."
"He is not a Poacher..."
Upon hearing about Old Man Zhang, Chen Mo's mood, which had improved slightly, became heavy again.
"No, he is a Poacher."
The bespectacled man calmly adjusted his glasses and looked at him expressionlessly.
"The Poacher and combat hero Old Zhang are two different people. This surprise attack was resolved entirely thanks to combat hero Old Zhang and candidate Chen Mo."
"Do you understand?"
Chen Mo, who was just about to lash out, was stunned on the spot, opening his mouth not knowing what to say.
"You don't need to understand too much. Now Old Zhang's body is gone, and the Poacher Black Dog's body is also gone; what's wrong with separating them?"
"You just need to know that Old Zhang is a combat hero, and the Poacher Black Dog is a lawless bastard, that's all."
After instructing Chen Mo, the bespectacled man got up and walked towards the abyss.
"Commander Chu! There are more delicious things inside the abyss; hurry inside once you're done eating the ones outside!"
These two had completely ignored Chen Mo's existence; after all, the sneak attack from Baiye City hadn't been completely resolved, and that was the priority.
[Congratulations to the host for successfully completing the challenge mission!]
[Current number of deaths in the family compound: 1]
[Mission completion rate: 99.99%]
[Rewards are being distributed...]
[145 Free Attribute Points, Skill Level ×18]
Only when the prompt sound for completing the mission rang out did Chen Mo completely relax.
Without relaxing, Chen Mo still had adrenaline to support him, but once he relaxed, the adrenaline was quickly metabolized.
The suppressed injuries and pain all erupted at the same moment, and Chen Mo's face instantly turned pale.
Furthermore, due to the excessive imbalance of power, Chen Mo's body began to twitch unnaturally.
"Damn it!"
"Quick, quick, quick! Put all the Free Attribute Points into Constitution for me!!!"
His Constitution increased by 145 points in an instant, and Chen Mo's body, which had been cracking continuously, finally stopped.
"Sure enough... Constitution is the most important."
Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief. He couldn't care about the pain anymore, and he lay paralyzed on the ground, looking up at the sky.
His body was still too fragile; he was so powerless when facing an enemy that spanned five major realms.
A single hit from the Abyss Venerable made him lose his combat ability directly, and he almost died on the spot.
But one Free Attribute Point per day was still too little. It seemed like only that move could be used...
"Hard Qigong, I need to practice more Hard Qigong!"
