Screams echoed throughout the stairwell, and red and yellow liquids covered the stair tiles, making it difficult for Gu Mingyue to walk on the steps.
"Aaaaaah! Help!"
Outside the window on the 16th floor, a man was crouching. He had discovered the monsters in his home first. He rushed out of his apartment and, finding the man-eating monsters below, desperately ran upstairs.
The monsters below chased after them relentlessly!
He ran away!
He discovered that the fire escape door on the 17th floor was locked.
Seeing that he was about to be caught by the monster, he had a sudden idea. He climbed onto the windowsill, ran outside the window, and squatted down, holding tightly to the window frame to avoid falling.
At this moment, the fire door at number 17 was opened. Although the group was a bit strange, it consisted of a man and a woman with a dog, a turtle, a snake, two hedgehogs, and five golden hamsters the size of cats.
The monsters had already grabbed his hand and started biting it, and even reached out their claws to try and pull him back into the building, which was still 16 stories below.
Without thinking, he immediately began to cry for help: "Please save me, I'm so young, I don't want to die."
He endured the pain and shouted to Gu Mingyue through the window.
Gu Mingyue ignored his cries for help. The person looked like an ordinary person. Even low-level ability users risk becoming monsters if they are scratched by high-level monsters, let alone ordinary people.
She gripped the meteorite blade tightly and slashed at the humanoid monster closest to her.
The humanoid monster was twice as fast as a normal human, but Gu Mingyue was even faster, accurately dodging its claws and steadily slicing her knife across its neck.
The monster's skin sizzled upon contact with the meteorite blade, and following the corrosive force, its head fell downstairs like a ball, rolling away.
Just as the monster downstairs was about to pick up the fallen head and put it in its mouth, a small, cat-sized creature, almost a blur, ran over first, grabbed the head, and ran back to the 16th floor.
This lured more monsters towards the 16th floor. At this moment, the little wolf also showed the unruly expression of a mutated beast. It opened its mouth and spat a fist-sized fireball at a monster. The fireball touched the monster's trouser leg and climbed upwards, turning the monster into a human-shaped fire stick.
Little Flower No. 1 placed the monster's head that she had snatched back at Gu Mingyue's feet. Gu Mingyue patted the golden hamster's head as a reward, and the Czech wolfhound returned to her side, wagging its tail excitedly.
Gu Mingyue patted its head again.
Then, he inserted a knife into the severed head and, relying on his experience of mining crystal cores for ten years in his previous life, picked out the crystal core in a second. Without even caring about the dirt, he put it directly into his palm to absorb it.
While Gu Mingyue was absorbing the crystal core, Xinghe was not idle either. He immediately erected a spatial shield and stood next to Gu Mingyue, holding a meteorite knife in his hand, and cleared away the humanoid monsters that were not blocked by the spatial shield.
The same applies to other small pets.
After absorbing a crystal core, Gu Mingyue felt her mind was clearer and her hunger had lessened considerably, but she hadn't yet reached the second level.
She could sense that the space seemed to have changed, but since it was the perfect time for the monsters to quickly mow down the monsters, she didn't look closely and quickly opened her eyes to join the battle.
The man who had been crouching outside the window climbed down from it. Although he hadn't been bitten to death by the monster, he discovered that his bite wound had become ulcerated, and he was filled with utter despair.
When he discovered that Gu Mingyue and the others were so powerful yet still unwilling to rescue him, he was filled with resentment. He made a snap decision and jumped out of the window, shouting and yelling to attract more monsters to climb up to the 16th floor. His body was gradually torn to pieces by the five monsters.
But his eyes were fixed on Gu Mingyue's direction. Even if he died, he would drag those two people on the 17th floor down with him. Who told them to stand by and watch him die!
Unfortunately, he didn't see the scene of Gu Mingyue being torn apart by the monster.
I was just worried that there weren't enough monsters in the stairwell, and I didn't have enough crystal cores to absorb!
There was a kind-hearted guy who burned his own life force, emitting a high-pitched roar and scream, which attracted seven or eight humanoid monsters to her.
Gu Mingyue gave a thumbs-up in the direction of Good Brother Xin: "Thank you, kind and great Brother Xin!!"
Before his eyes were swallowed up, the man stared at Gu Mingyue's outstretched thumb, stunned, and then swore a string of profanities, as foul as a bomb thrown into a cesspool, until his tongue was bitten off before he stopped.
Seeing these monsters, Gu Mingyue was in a great mood. She immediately released her mental domain. Within the mental sphere with a radius of ten meters, the movements of seven or eight humanoid monsters began to slow down. Although they were not completely frozen, it was like a video edited at 0.01x speed. Ten seconds passed and their claws raised above their heads did not fall down.
Gu Mingyue, holding the meteorite knife, strolled leisurely among them, as easily as harvesting pumpkins in a vegetable garden, while they could only watch helplessly as their heads were cut off.
This is the crushing power of top-tier supernatural abilities over low-level monsters!
They easily reaped eight monster heads.
Having controlled so many monsters at once, Gu Mingyue found that she didn't feel any discomfort from the loss of her superpowers. Previously, controlling three was already her limit.
Feeling increasingly that her supernatural talent was extremely abnormal, Gu Mingyue couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth.
He strode downstairs with an air of indifference, as if he didn't recognize anyone.
Those monsters who were like brutal beasts when facing ordinary humans all turned into limp, weak whelps when they encountered the monstrous Gu Mingyue.
Even after they reached the third floor, Xinghe didn't use his spatial blade. The two of them used only two meteorite swords to kill most of the monsters in Unit 4.
"Hey, isn't this the idiot who reached for my chainsaw before?" Gu Mingyue finally spotted a mid-level humanoid monster. The monster's claws were curled up in its palms like eagle claws. Unlike other humanoid monsters, its mouth was split to the side of its ears and filled with sharp, cone-shaped teeth. It looked like it had eaten at least five people.
Upon hearing Gu Mingyue's voice, the monster immediately abandoned the fat meat that was about to be in its mouth. The voice was so familiar that it didn't even want to chew the meat in front of its mouth. It only wanted to devour the extremely hateful human and turn it into its nourishment.
He threw the meat in his hand to the other creatures on the ground and then leaped up the building.
But when it came to Gu Mingyue's side, it did not see the terrified screams it expected on this fragile human face.
The woman's face showed a calmness and composure it had never seen on the entire journey.
Suddenly, it felt an unprecedented sense of crisis take over its consciousness. When it tried to turn around and run away on instinct, it found that its limbs seemed to be stuck in cement, and every step was extremely difficult.
