Chapter 1 Confused
In the dark alley, the creepy crunch kept ringing, just like mice chewing food in the waterway.
A black shadow lay on Lao Nuo's body, constantly sucking something, making a terrifying chewing sound.
This place is already an urban-rural fringe near the suburbs of Zhongdu. As midnight approaches, no one notices the horror scene in this alley.
Suddenly, the sound of chewing stopped, and a moonlight shone on Li Anping's pale face.
His eyes were protruding, his eyes were filled with horror. When he saw Lao Nuo, who was covered in blood, he screamed and stepped back and leaned against the wall.
Li Anping looked at the blood in his hands and the wreckage on the ground, and finally couldn't help vomiting.
He vomited for a long time, but he couldn't vomit completely. He always felt like something was churning in his stomach. When he saw the blood in his vomit, he screamed like crazy.
"If you want to attract the police, just continue calling."
Li Anping raised his head and said angrily: "What did you do? You actually... let me eat... let me eat..."
"You want to say eat people?" the voice said maliciously: "I don't control you. From beginning to end, you are just acting. Whether you kill the police, kill the first intruder later, or chase the second intruder, kill him, and then eat a few bites of his meat. These are all done by yourself."
"How is that possible?!" Lee Anping hysterically knocked his head against the wall: "How can I eat people? You devil, how can you make me eat people?!"
"Hehehehe, I said I didn't control you, I just gave you strength." The voice sneered: "And what you did later was driven by instinctively under the influence of power.
Li Anping, you are born a demon. In your heart that has been pursuing justice for more than 20 years, what is hidden is the deepest malice of humanity.
For you, killing people is as natural as breathing, destroying life is as simple as dressing and eating. These are all your instincts, and they are the real you."
Li Anping hugged his head with both hands and covered his ears: "Nonsense, I don't want to listen to your instigation anymore. Everything is you, you are manipulating me, you demon, you devil!! You ruined my life!!"
The voice snorted coldly and said, "Before this, you had no life. On the contrary, now your body has been repaired, and you have more control over the power that ordinary people cannot control, and you have the opportunity to take revenge.
And the only price is to arouse one's instinct. This is simply too cost-effective.
Besides, you promised me before that you could pay any price. Do you regret it now?"
Li Anping remained silent, and a hint of ruthlessness appeared on his face: "But I didn't promise you to eat people!! How can you leave my body? I will never eat people anymore."
The voice said again: "I just need to make a deal with you. In the process of trading, you will only get countless benefits and master powers that ordinary people cannot imagine..."
Faced with terrible facts, some people will go crazy, some will collapse, and some will show their nature.
"From the beginning, you were using me, are you?" The logical thinking in Li Anping's brain began to work again: "When you were in the ward, you said a lot, but you actually didn't reveal any important information. I didn't even know what kind of existence you were.
But I was completely disappointed at that time, so I chose to believe in you..."
"Hehehehe, it turns out that your choice was right."
"Right? Now I think about it calmly, I feel that I was bewitched by you and walked towards a path you want me to go." Moran said without saying a word, and Li Anping continued: "If you want to trade, at least tell me what you are? And what's going on?" He pointed to the corpse on the ground and said.
"Hehe, the deal has been completed, it's too late to say anything now. When you let go of your mind, my strength and your body have become inseparable. Speaking of which, should you look at your own body first?"
"Hmm?" Li Anping stood up and looked down at his body. He exclaimed in surprise, looked at his torso in disbelief, and shouted with all his limbs: "How is that possible?"
His body, which was originally 1.8 meters tall, almost 1.9 meters tall, and his thin body, who had been tortured on the hospital bed, became extremely strong. His arms and thighs were covered with tendons, and his streamlined abdomen and chest muscles looked like a gymnastic or swimmer.
It's a world of difference compared to what he looked like a day ago.
At the same time, a tempting voice sounded again in his ears: "My ability is to strengthen myself by sucking human souls and flesh, and after staying in your body, you have the same ability.
As long as you keep hunting for humans, you will become stronger and stronger, and your body will become closer to perfection.
As long as you hunt enough humans, one day you will become the God of the new world and operate this world with your own will."
"Don't think about it." Li Anping said in a decisive tone: "I will never eat people. And what you said is without any evidence."
"No evidence? How do you explain your current body? How do you explain everything you did in the hospital?" The voice said sarcastically: "You absorbed the soul of that policeman to fight against the person who can control muscles, and then ate that person who can chase and kill the man so far, and complete the initial transformation of the body."
"It's not me who did this! It's you!" Li Anping growled: "Don't try to use me again. You monster, I will no longer be at your mercy."
"Hmph, how do you take revenge? You don't want to enhance the man by enhancing it. But what do you do now? The police are looking for you, and the Shang family will not let you go. Although they are not sure that you killed the people in the hospital, they also know that you are missing. If they send a stronger person next time, with your current strength, they will be dead."
"You don't have to worry about this." Li Anping walked out of the alley with his head in his arms.
"What a rookie. You don't even know how to hide your body after you finish eating."
Li Anping didn't say a word, but just walked out of the alley. Although his thinking returned to normal, his heart was still very confused. He wanted to vent his anger, but he didn't know what to do. He wanted to find someone to talk to, but he didn't know who to look for.
He walked alone on the streets of the cold winter, still covered with hospital clothes, and there were still blood stains on it, which looked particularly strange.
The cold wind blew on his body, but Li Anping couldn't feel any coldness. His body was transmitted from a constant source of power. Although he was not as strong as the hospital when the power burst out, his enhanced body had already made him far beyond ordinary people.
Gradually, Li Anping walked faster and faster, and he ran. The map of the entire Zhongcheng City appeared in his mind, as if he was looking at the map in his hand. He never felt that his memory was so strong. His arms were swinging forcefully, his feet were stepping on the ground, and the huge thrust pushed his body forward.
Feeling the wind blowing through his face, Li Anping kept running at the speed of ordinary people's sprints, as if he wanted to vent all the depression in his heart.
But the strong body did not feel any fatigue, there was no soreness in the limbs, the lungs breathed as usual, and there was not even a trace of asthma.
When he stopped, he just felt his legs slightly sore, just like an ordinary person took a step after a meal.
It was not until dawn that he realized that he had unknowingly crossed dozens of kilometers and returned to the community where he used to live.
"Did I go back here subconsciously?" Li Anping murmured, seeing the familiar grass and trees nearby, he experienced a feeling of change in things and people. The last time he came here, he was a college student in his prime and a hero who bravely acted.
But now, he has become a rapist despised by everyone and a murderer pursued by the police.
"What the hell should I do?"
Walking on the street in a daze, Li Anping's face was full of confusion.
"Li Anping?" At this moment, a female voice sounded from behind him, almost terrifying him from the bottom of his life.
He turned around and found that it was his neighbor's daughter, Wang Xue.
‘What should I do? Do I want to knock him out? Will he call the police? Could it be...kill her?’ Li Anping turned his head and looked at Wang Xue blankly. Just as he was ashamed of his subconscious reaction, Wang Xue spoke again behind her.
"Sorry, I recognized the wrong person." Wang Xue stuck out her tongue and blinked at Li Anping. At the age of 18, she is at the age of youth, and she is born well, and she looks even more cute. She is also a popular figure in school for many boys.
At this time, Li Anping looked down at himself and reacted. It turned out that after his body was modified, his body shape and temperament changed greatly. Only when his eyebrows were vaguely still the same as before, so Wang Xue admitted him wrong.
However, Wang Xue looked at Li Anping's down-and-out appearance and the blood on her clothes again, and asked, "Are you okay?"
"No... it's okay." Li Anping said nervously: "Just just fell."
Wang Xue could naturally see such a brainless lie. However, living in this slum area, Wang Xue has seen too many people. If she hadn't felt that the other party was somewhat similar to Li Anping just now, she wouldn't have come up to ask questions.
"It's fine. There is no hurdle in the world that cannot be overcome." Wang Xue said carelessly: "If you want to find a job, you can go to the vegetable market to find my father Wang Qing and help move vegetables and so on. It's better to live a day."
"Well, I will consider it." Li Anping nodded, knowing that the other party misunderstood that he was a beggar and a homeless person. However, he is no different from a homeless person now.
But I used to hear that Wang Xue’s father, Wang Qing, was the boss of the vegetable market, and she liked to help some needy families in the community and became a person similar to the head of the big sister. Now, it turns out that's true.
Seeing Wang Xue leave, Li Anping suddenly felt warm in his heart. Maybe the world is very dirty, but it has not reached a time of complete despair. Maybe it is only a small part, but there are still good people and good deeds in this world.
