7: Moon Village 5

The sky grew increasingly gloomy, and as a cool breeze swept by, Wang Yang and Li Zhao both shivered.

Chang Junxiang was at the same level as them, yet he couldn't even withstand two moves from Shi Yan. If it were them, they probably wouldn't last much longer either.

If Shi Yan could kill Chang Junxiang, he could kill both of them.

The more they thought about it, the more their hair stood on end.

Fortunately, at this moment, the system panel suddenly popped out.

Main Quest: Survive for three days.

Side Quest: Return to the hotel and survive until the morning of the third day.

Shi Yan turned his head to look at Wang Yang and Li Zhao with a slight smile.

"Why are you both standing still? This mission is indeed very difficult; five people have died in such a short time. It seems we can only survive by working together and helping each other."

The two didn't speak, but they were already cursing Shi Yan in their hearts. Without Shi Yan, the other four would not have died. They also realized that the sudden closing of the ancestral hall door earlier must have been Shi Yan's doing.

This guy is only Level 1, how can he be so strong?

After Shi Yan finished speaking, he didn't care what the two thought and turned to walk towards the hotel. This mission is again to survive until the second day. I wonder if he will encounter it?

Shi Yan very much hoped to encounter the Bloody Hand again, because the hint it gave him was the greatest. Back then, just cutting off half a palm allowed him to upgrade his skill to Primary. What if it was an entire arm? What was on the other end of the arm? Could he gain more by eliminating it?

The more Shi Yan thought about it, the more he anticipated tonight's meeting. His pace also quickened slightly.

This time, Shi Yan did not enter Room 203, where he had stayed before, but instead chose Room 205, where Tian Miaomiao had stayed.

From the previous experience, it could be seen that the Blood-Colored Arm had intelligence, and since it suffered such a great loss in Room 203 last time, it was very unlikely to go there again this time.

Seeking benefits and avoiding harm, bullying the weak and fearing the strong, are instincts of all species. So Shi Yan chose Tian Miaomiao's room, after all, among everyone, Tian Miaomiao was the easiest to bully.

The color of the sky continuously changed, first light gray, then gradually transitioning to dark gray, and finally, it turned pitch black and oppressive.

The window silently slid open a crack, as if it had always been that way, and a blood-red arm slowly extended into Room 205. Last time, it was forced to retreat because it encountered something inexplicable; this time, it must suck its fill.

The Blood-Colored Arm actually couldn't see anything; it was like a mosquito, only able to roughly determine a person's location based on the carbon dioxide they exhaled. That's why Tian Miaomiao wasn't directly pierced through vital organs like the heart or throat last time, but rather through the thigh, a relatively non-fatal area.

The Blood-Colored Arm sensed the flow of gas and quietly probed towards the source. The person seemed to be unaware of anything, remaining motionless.

The Blood-Colored Arm, like a snake before an attack, began to coil itself, storing up energy as if drawing a bow.

Just as it was about to shoot straight out, a lightning-fast flash of a blade passed by, and the entire arm fell directly to the ground.

This time, Shi Yan had been watching the Blood-Colored Arm's every move from the moment it first extended in. Once the Blood-Colored Arm reached its maximum extension, he decisively flashed forward and cut it off with a single strike. After all, the Blood-Colored Arm's own speed wasn't actually fast, and combined with its inability to see, it was still very easy to deal with.

The moment the arm was severed, a strange wailing sound faintly echoed deep in his mind, as if many people were wailing together, though it only lasted for an instant.

Shi Yan immediately turned his head to look at the distance outside the window. The moment the wailing sounded, Shi Yan felt something from that place summoning him.

Shi Yan frowned slightly; the sensation of the voice appearing directly in his mind made him very uncomfortable, and the location that kept summoning him also made him feel very bewildered.

Shi Yan decided to think about these matters when it was light. Currently, due to the mission restrictions, he couldn't go to that place.

The entire Blood-Colored Arm fell to the ground, and a blood-red rhomboid crystal slowly emerged on that arm.

Shi Yan extended his right hand with anticipation and touched it. The moment of contact, a warm current spread throughout his entire right arm from the point of contact.

Shi Yan felt that his entire right hand could undergo Blood Tattooed Transformation. Shi Yan named the areas covered by Blood Mark Control, as he didn't know how many more skills he would acquire in the future.

The ability panel also popped out at this time.

Abilities: Elementary Head Transformation, Intermediate Bloodline Control, Primary Panel Enhancement.

Shi Yan activated Blood Tattooed Transformation. His entire right arm was covered with streaks of blood-colored patterns, emitting a blood-red glow, giving off an evil and ominous feeling. If an ordinary person stared closely at the Blood Marks, they would even feel dizzy and disoriented.

Shi Yan’s entire arm became twice as thick and about 1.5 times longer than before. Now, Shi Yan looked as if a bodybuilder's arm had been attached to a child, which was eerie no matter how you looked at it.

However, Shi Yan completely disregarded these changes. In Shi Yan's view, gaining something inevitably meant losing something, and moreover, this kind of loss was completely worthwhile.

Two fingers gently collided, emitting a series of metallic clanging sounds. Not only did his defense greatly increase, but his strength also significantly improved, and as strength increased, speed would inevitably follow.

Shi Yan waved his hand to get used to the newly acquired power. The power he now possessed was far greater than before his transmigration.

If he were to fight Chang Junxiang now, Shi Yan was confident that he wouldn't even need to use a second move; one move would be enough to pierce through his Panel Enhancement and instantly kill Chang Junxiang.

"Oh, right, can Blood Mark Control be stacked with Primary Panel Enhancement?" Since this was Shi Yan's first time acquiring so many abilities, and he had been thinking about the Blood-Colored Arm, he hadn't considered this aspect for a moment.

After Blood Tattooed Transformation his right arm, Shi Yan took out his dagger with his left hand and forcefully slashed at his enhanced arm.

"Clang!"

Along with a piercing sound, a spark appeared along the path of the dagger's slash.

Shi Yan carefully looked at the slashed area, and a tiny white mark slowly appeared.

After Shi Yan stacked Primary Panel Enhancement, he held the dagger and forcefully slashed at his right arm.

Another spark flashed, but this time not even a tiny scratch was left. Shi Yan had used his full strength in both attacks, yet not a single wound was left. His defense was simply astonishing.

"Now I can even withstand bullets. Can the stacked defense reach such a level? I'm really looking forward to the future changes." In his previous life, Shi Yan was an assassin, so he was very familiar with the power of all firearms. His current level of defense definitely wouldn't allow him to withstand a Barrett, but blocking some small handguns would certainly be no problem.
