Doomsday: with unlimited warehouse system-Chapter 262 Time Essence Water
Before long, the two entered the room with a steaming bowl of food.
"This is the most delicious food in the wasteland. You must try it, or else it wouldn't do justice to my sister's over an hour of hard work!" Before David could say anything, the young boy took a plate and filled it with a heaping spoonful of food, then looked at him as if waiting for David to eat it all.
David glanced at the two and a subtle smile appeared on his lips, not easily noticeable. "I suppose this meat is all from your kind, right?" Hearing this, both of them sat there stunned.
"Don't pretend anymore. From the moment you appeared, I knew you weren't human. Ordinary people can't survive in the wasteland, let alone that family of four that was killed by mutant alligators. The smell in the room is probably something you deliberately used to cover up the smell of decay, isn't it? And you're in such a hurry to make me eat what you've prepared; there must be plenty of poison in there." Saying this, David tossed the core of the gene fruit into the nearest plate of food.
A sharp sound, and the core instantly turned to ashes. Seeing their plot exposed by David, the two no longer concealed their true nature. With a leap backward, they revealed their real faces. Both of them were decrepit old people, short in stature, with rotting skin on their faces, and putrid blood oozing from within.
Clearly, they were two zombies, unlike ordinary ones. They possessed greater strength, could even transform into human appearance, speak human language naturally, and employ strategies. They stood in place, glaring at David with malevolence.
"Now that you've seen through us, you won't be leaving today! Once we consume you, the two of us will completely become human. Hahaha!" The old man who had previously been the young boy had a fierce expression as he threatened David.
David finally understood. It seemed that these two had killed numerous espers who had come here. However, David wasn't the feeble target they perceived.
"Your power isn't enough. Summon the mutant lizard," David said, turning and leaving the room.
The night was icy, and faint chirping sounds echoed in the sky. Watching David leave the room, the two exchanged a glance and followed him.
"I didn't expect you to know that the mutant lizard is our pet. But this will be the last thing you know. I will reward your bones to my most capable pet!" The old man whistled toward the forest, and instantly, the rustling of leaves filled the air. First came a roar, followed by the aggressive mutant lizard charging out, the same one that David encountered during the afternoon! It stuck out its tongue and stood by the two, staring at David. 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝒏𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝙣𝒆𝙩
During the day, when David encountered it, they had noticed David's presence and released the mutant lizard to intimidate him, then acted their part. However, now that everything was exposed, they had no need to continue the charade.
"Now, obediently follow my commands. Perhaps I can make your death more comfortable." The old man drew an iron chain from his waist, and the old woman carried the machete she had with her when leaving the room.
The two stood there, gazing at David like long-awaited predators, awaiting the opportunity to kill him and enjoy a hearty meal.
David's face remained calm as he shook his head at the two.
"You're too arrogant, but do you know what true arrogance is?" As his words fell, David sneered, and the cold gleam of the spatial blade appeared in his hand. With a swift sound, he appeared in front of the old man.
"This is true arrogance. Are you worthy of it?" The spatial blade followed David's hand, sweeping across the old man's neck. Instantly, a large amount of blood spurted out, and he clutched his neck while his Adam's apple convulsed in agony.
"You..." a few indistinct words were uttered, and David once again plunged blade slowly into his heart.
"Since you want to die, let you savor the pleasure of death." The spatial blade pierced through his heart inch by inch, making it impossible for him to bear the pain. As the spatial blade fully entered his heart, he widened his eyes in disbelief, then collapsed to the ground. The iron chain in his hand also fell to the ground with a clatter. David turned his head to look at the old woman.
"Old man! I'm going to kill you!" The old woman roared in anger, wielding her large knife towards David, but how could her strength compare to David's? With a slight move, David easily dodged her attack, then swiftly struck. Two bodies lay side by side.
"As a family, even in death, you should be neat." David coldly remarked, looking at their bodies. Seeing their master being quickly dispatched by David, the mutant lizard became agitated. It continued to roar angrily, charging towards David.
The massive body was like a small mountain, causing the ground to tremble with its impact as it charged towards David. Just as the mutant lizard reached David, he retracted his spatial blade. He raised his right fist, and an overwhelming aura erupted from it,David's upgraded Level 11 technique, the Crushing Sky Fist, showcasing its true power.
David wanted to seize this opportunity to test the real power of the Crushing Sky Fist at Level 11. At that moment, the mutant lizard had reached him. Its enormous head, resembling a locomotive, was hurtling towards David!
David shouted explosively, his right fist thrusting forward. The space near his fist visibly distorted due to the immense force.
"Boom!" In the blink of an eye, David's fist struck the mutant lizard's head. The shockwaves generated visible ripples in the surrounding space, causing colossal boulders and trees to disintegrate into powder!
The mutant lizard let out a painful roar, and its entire body suddenly flipped over, crashing onto the ground. The earth trembled violently once again. David's punch had literally shattered the mutant lizard's head. Like a burst water jug, white brain matter gushed out with a splashing sound.
With just one punch, David had completely obliterated the mutant lizard. Looking at the mutant lizard's corpse, David nodded in satisfaction. This was the level of power he truly desired.
Walking over to the two bodies, the system's voice sounded in David's ear,
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining two Intermediate Pronuclei! ]
[Congratulations to the host for triggering a 100x critical hit, obtaining two hundred Intermediate Pronuclei! ]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for extracting a piece of Mysterious Iron! ]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for extracting a bottle of Time Essence Water! ]
"Time Essence Water?" Hearing the system's voice, David was momentarily taken aback.
