20: Chapter 20 The Observer

Chen Mo quickly summoned the skill card from his system inventory.

[Name: Thumb Struck by a Hammer]

Since the Class Monitor was already in physical contact with Chen Mo, the skill activated automatically.

Near the Class Monitor's bound feet, a mass of white mist appeared out of thin air.

Then, a small wooden hammer emerged from the mist and struck down hard on the Class Monitor's thumb.

A loud "bang" rang out.

With just this one strike, the wooden hammer vanished instantly.

It was just like Tom from Tom and Jerry, with the same effect as being struck by Jerry with a wooden mallet.

The Class Monitor's toe swelled up instantly, puffing up like a red balloon!

The Class Monitor's originally arrogant, ghastly face suddenly bit its lip, its face turning the color of pig's liver.

It let out an extremely miserable roar!

Its neck snapped back automatically, and its hands instantly let go.

Chen Mo's body slid down from the wall.

However, unlike ordinary people who need a moment to catch their breath after being released from a tense situation,

the moment Chen Mo's feet touched the ground, he exerted force through his calves and lunged fiercely toward the Class Monitor!

He clenched his palm, and a blue light appeared.

It condensed and materialized into the bone-scraping knife. Chen Mo leapt with force, gripped the handle tightly, and aimed for the Class Monitor's chest, preparing to stab it in!

"Chen Mo! Chen Mo!——"

The Class Monitor let out a shrill screech, and a surging wave of air erupted from its fangs, causing Chen Mo, who was in mid-leap, to lose his balance for a moment.

The two ghost hands exerted force again, twisting and stretching in the air.

This time!

The Class Monitor's palms transformed into sharp blades, ready to decapitate Chen Mo with one stroke!

"Su Qing! Move quickly!" Chen Mo roared.

The Class Monitor's attention was entirely focused on Chen Mo, ignoring the piece of trash it deemed to have zero combat power.

However... Su Qing's core personality was the Observer.

In other words, you are who you associate with.

Previously, she had spent a long time playing with various wealthy socialites or school bullies, learning only how to enjoy herself.

But now, after spending some time with someone like Chen Mo,

her personality had been influenced accordingly.

The Observer personality would drive the body to naturally imitate those it deemed superior.

Su Qing pulled out the electric lipstick, ran quickly to the front of the Class Monitor, and jabbed it hard into the Class Monitor's waist.

A nearly exaggerated, jet-like blue current instantly covered the Class Monitor's entire body.

Like ribbons of blue spirals, it rapidly traveled across the Class Monitor's body.

The ghost claws that should have slashed Chen Mo's forehead suddenly stalled.

Like a deflated balloon, they became limp and powerless.

Chen Mo seized the opportunity, his body instantly landing on the Class Monitor's hospital bed.

"Remove the lipstick!" Chen Mo commanded.

Su Qing nodded, pulled the lipstick away, ran quickly to the side, and hid behind the doorframe to observe quietly.

As the current receded, the Class Monitor's pupils dilated, and its meter-long hair stood on end, turning into an afro.

Its jaw slackened, and its mouth opened.

A mass of black mist crackling with electricity spewed out from inside.

Chen Mo summoned the Snake Woman's bone-scraping knife, gripping it tightly with both hands, his gaze sharp.

The eyeballs in its sockets flipped upside down. Sensing death approaching, the Class Monitor's mind became a bit clearer.

At this moment, its eyes returned to human form, revealing a clear and bright gaze.

"Chen Mo, don't! We are classmates, and we are teammates in the game."

"Don't kill me, I'm still useful!"

"If we encounter even more terrifying BOSSes, my combat power will be very strong!"

"Do you really have the heart to kill someone? If my parents find out I died, they will definitely...!"

Chen Mo did not hesitate and quickly stabbed the bone-scraping knife into the Class Monitor's heart.

With a "squelch," it felt as if he had pierced through a block of tofu.

The spurting black blood instantly stained Chen Mo's white coat.

In Chen Mo's mind, his perception seemed to be synchronized with this bone-scraping knife.

He could clearly see the entire process of the blade piercing through the skin and muscle, and then plunging deep into the heart!

"Ahhh!!!"

The Class Monitor's body convulsed violently, heaving up and down. Its lips split open completely, and the veins all over its body bulged.

The bone-scraping knife seemed to be alive, like a mouth, constantly absorbing the essence from within the Class Monitor's body.

The bone-scraping knife sometimes grew larger, sometimes smaller, and strange patterns repeatedly appeared across the entire blade.

At the same time, the laughter of a bewitching woman echoed in Chen Mo's mind.

"Hehe, it tastes so good."

The voice vanished in an instant, leaving no trace.

Until the Class Monitor's mouth opened, and a mass of black mist crawled out from inside.

The convulsions finally stopped.

Cold sweat poured from Chen Mo's forehead. He slumped over the Class Monitor's corpse, breathing somewhat rapidly.

Although Chen Mo was a horror movie enthusiast who had watched many cruel and bloody scenes—to the point where he had become numb from watching too many—

but... this was his first time actually killing someone in reality.

Moreover, when gripping this bone-scraping knife, the tactile sensation and the feeling of piercing seemed to be amplified 100 times, allowing Chen Mo, who had not experienced the emotion of Fear for a long time,

to feel as if he had opened the door to a new world!

[This Many Children Many Blessings, I cannot describe it with words. Why don't... we just pull him directly into the Management Group?]

[Keen judgment, extreme reaction speed, leadership-style teamwork, and most importantly, that decisive killing—brilliant, absolutely brilliant!]

[Even back in my day, I could never have been this sharp. He is indeed a rare talent.]

[Group Leader: No! His level is still too low. He needs to reach at least level 20 before we can consider pulling him into the Management Group.]

[Indeed, many people have high talent but poor luck. They might die in the next dungeon. Investment has risks; we do need to consider this more carefully.]

[Vice Group Leader: Right now, he is just a newborn baby. Pulling him into the Management Group too early and letting him know too much will not help his growth at all.]

"Chen Mo, are you okay?" Su Qing ran over, looking anxious.

She pulled Chen Mo, who was in a semi-dissociated state, off the blood-stained hospital bed.

"I'll go buy you some water!"

At this moment, Su Qing steeled her heart. For Chen Mo's sake, she took the initiative to cut off one of Liu Xiaodong's wrists.

She ran off to buy water for Chen Mo.

Two days ago, even if you had given her an admission letter to Huaqing University, she absolutely would not have taken the initiative to do something like this.

A few minutes later, she fed Chen Mo the water of might.

After taking a few gulps, his condition recovered, and Chen Mo's state of mind calmed down quite a bit.

"Are you okay now?"

The first thing Chen Mo did was smile. "Luckily, we gave the Class Monitor an anesthetic last night; otherwise... today we would have been facing the fully-evolved Class Monitor that had broken free from its chains."

"I'm fine! All three missions are complete, and we can go home tonight."

Upon hearing this, Su Qing also smiled.
