Chapter 121: Night Parade of a Hundred Demons (12)

In the dark space, Selina’s body had almost completely sunk into the water. Only her head remained above the surface, yet her eyes, like ashes doused again with water, held no emotion at all.

At that moment, countless strands of hair, like tentacles, shot toward her and dragged her out of the pool.

But Selina’s body seemed to have lost all strength. She didn’t move, didn’t resist, letting the hair wrap around her body into a cocoon.

Selina was bound in midair by those strands of hair like prey pinned in a spiderweb.

A figure wearing a red-and-white dress appeared, slowly floating toward Selina.

The female ghost extended a gaunt hand, lightly touching Selina’s beautiful face, caressing it as if she had just found something precious.

A gloomy face, deathly pale like a sheet of paper. Her eyes emitted a strange blood-red glow as they stared at Selina. Her finger traced Selina’s face for a moment, then… those fingers pierced through Selina’s forehead, clawing inside as if grabbing something.

“Hahaha… hahahaha…”

At that moment, a bone-chilling laugh rang out, crazed, eerie, as if echoing up from the bottom of an abyss, then twisted by violent gales.

….

“Where is this?”

Selina saw only darkness before her. Her vision shifted from blurry to clear, like a lens adjusting focus.

A faint shadow approached.

The moment Selina saw that figure, she recognized who it was.

“Master…” she stammered, her body trembling. Her hand reached out as if to touch him, but even though he stood right in front of her, she couldn’t touch him.

“Master… I’m sorry… I’m sorry…”

The shadowy figure said nothing, only stood still.

Selina trembled even harder, as if struck by a devastating blow, her mind teetering on the edge of collapse.

Despair swallowed her because she thought Rover might no longer need her.

And that was only right. After all, she was a whore, her body filthy to the extreme. How could she stay by his side?

At that moment, the shadow in front suddenly used a thorny vine, looping it around her neck.

The vine was covered in thorns. It stabbed into her neck, making her feel pain.

That shadow yanked, making Selina fall forward. The vine tightened. Sharp thorns tore her neck, and fresh blood flowed.

Yet Selina didn’t look afraid, uncomfortable, or angry.

Instead, madness and excitement flared in her eyes.

’Master still needs me…’ Selina thought.

That was good. As long as Master still needed her, even being a dog was fine.

She crawled toward the shadow, reaching out. Just as she was about to touch him, countless cracks suddenly appeared in the space around her, then shattered into countless fragments.

….

“Agh!”

Selina’s eyes flew open. Her breathing was rapid, her large breasts rising and falling with each breath.

She slowly sat up and realized this was still the area outside the apartment complex. The spirits from before had completely vanished, leaving only Death Skeleton staring at her.

That’s right, it was staring at her.

At first, Death Skeleton had only stood there without moving, but then it turned its head toward Selina. The two flames inside its eye sockets danced wildly, as if it had found something very interesting.

It waved its hand. The old lantern, emitting green light, suddenly began to shine brighter and brighter. A stream of white smoke suddenly burst from the lantern and shot toward Selina.

She frowned, instinctively trying to dodge, but her body was like it had been frozen, unable to move. She could only watch the smoke slowly seep into her nose, then vanish completely.

Selina bit her lip, not understanding what was happening, and then suddenly her body returned to her control.

Death Skeleton stood still again. Its gaze was no longer on her, but on the fog behind her. It pointed in some direction.

Selina looked that way but saw nothing except fog.

She turned back to Death Skeleton and found it now standing motionless, its head bowed like a doll that had run out of battery.

Selina frowned and muttered, “This is strange…”

At this moment, the fog suddenly churned violently, like a calm surface of water struck by a rock.

Countless roars echoed like zombie growls, mixed with the miserable wailing of spirits.

Selina jolted and hurriedly retreated.

The fog split apart, revealing a passage. Countless zombies poured out, but strangely, their bodies were incomplete.

Zombies were already imperfect by nature, but these were different. Their bodies were missing arms, legs, or even heads. In their place were condensed spirits, forming the missing parts.

Selina took a deep breath, her heart trembling slightly. It was the first time she had encountered monsters this bizarre.

“This is bad! Zombies without heads can still move, so…” Selina seemed to realize something and hurriedly tested it.

She pulled out a metal tennis-ball-sized sphere and hurled it hard toward the zombies.

BOOM!

A terrifying explosion rang out, followed by flames so hot they blanketed a wide area.

Selina frowned, gripping her sword tightly, unease rising as she stared at the hazy smoke ahead.

Suddenly…

GRA!!!

“Agh!” Even though Selina had been prepared, she still jolted when she saw a zombie that had been blasted into countless pieces, yet its body was still connected by soul tentacles.

Selina immediately retreated. Her blade swept out, dazzling light slicing across that zombie’s body and cutting it into two parts.

But when the two halves fell to the ground, countless translucent faces appeared along the cut, mouths gaping wide. From their mouths, tentacles poured out like a writhing mass of worms, twisting and entangling.

Those faces withdrew back into the zombie’s body while using those soul tentacles to pull the two halves back together.

Selina’s face went pale at the scene, both grotesque and bizarre. She knew staying here was meaningless. She immediately backed away and fled up to a higher floor.

GRA!!!

A shrill roar echoed as the zombies that had just been swallowed by the explosion now charged at Selina like a pack of starving wolves.

However, her speed was extremely fast. In just a few seconds, she dashed into the building and vanished up the staircase to the upper floors.

….

“Heh?!” Inside his room, Felix heard that terrifying explosion and looked outside, confusion in his eyes.

“Could it be a high-level monster?” Felix muttered. However, the explosion had filled the outside with smoke and dust, and he couldn’t see anything.

Suddenly, a beautiful figure burst out of the thick smoke, then ran straight upstairs.

Seeing Selina, Felix sneered. “Ah! I thought you’d hold out longer. Finally couldn’t take it anymore?”

He signaled to the two women in the room and said with a smile, “Prepare to fight. Keep reloading nonstop. Don’t allow any monsters to pass our floor.”

The two women nodded, then immediately moved close to the door, ready to feed ammo to the defense towers.

“Hm?!” Felix seemed to see something and frowned, trying to look more closely as he muttered, “Zombies?”

BAM! BAM! BAM!

“Agh!!” Felix screamed in shock when a swarm of zombies suddenly slammed into his door.

The zombies were like ants, swarming all around his door. The ones that came later rushed to the other rooms, pounding on doors like mad.

[Door Durability: -1]

[Door Durability: -1]

“Motherfucker!” Felix roared. “Hurry up! Kill all those bastards! Hurry!”

The three defense towers immediately opened fire wildly, firing arrows, pellets, and even arcs of electricity.

The zombies were quickly killed, but Felix felt something was off. He muttered, “Strange. Why are there zombies? Are the next waves really just zombies, only faster?”

Felix looked outside, and then his face twisted as if he had just swallowed a cockroach.

The zombies sprawled on the ground suddenly moved again. But Felix could see clearly that countless streams of smoke… no, more precisely, those spirits were starting to reconnect the zombies’ bodies.

Some zombies even had no heads but could still move. Where the head should have been was a cluster of writhing soul tentacles, disgusting to the extreme.

“Blegh!” Felix was so nauseated he almost threw up.

Alan suddenly spoke from inside the room, “Fuck! You looking down on me too?”

Felix: “…”

Alan seemed extremely sensitive to the sound of vomiting or anyone feeling nauseous. He felt like anyone gagging was insulting him.

Felix gritted his teeth and didn’t want to deal with Alan anymore. His eyes turned back outside.

BAM! BAM!

The zombies stood up again and started smashing their heads into his door like mad.

“Damn it! I don’t believe you can resurrect infinitely!” Felix roared through clenched teeth. “Shoot! Keep shooting! I don’t believe that if we grind their bodies into paste, they can still resurrect.”

Gunfire rang out again, not only on Floor 1, but Floors 2 and 3 as well.

Weaker rooms with low-level doors were quickly breached. The screams of people inside echoed everywhere.

The zombies truly seemed to be able to resurrect infinitely. After dying, they stood back up and continued attacking any rooms that hadn’t been broken yet.

Felix watched his gold coins, silver coins, and resources slowly draining away to buy ammo for the defense towers and Repair the door, and his heart ached to the extreme.

“Fuck! How many more times are these zombies going to resurrect?!”
