That kind of hunger penetrates deep into the bone marrow, devours reason, and is even more torturous than death.

After all, those hands holding knives and forks only attack during the day.

At night, their hunger became uncontrollable until they had eaten all the food in the cement house...

Finally, someone broke down.

They began to attack each other, tearing each other's flesh and blood, hysterical screams mixed with chewing sounds, and the scene completely turned into hell.

From this moment on, the giant hand holding the knife and fork is no longer a deadly fear.

Fear comes from one's own kind.

People eat people.

Finally, only the fattest man was left.

He was covered in blood, but his eyes were still burning with greed for food.

He knelt on the ground, tore off a piece of his own flesh with trembling hands, put it in his mouth and chewed it, blood dripping from the corners of his mouth.

His eyes were empty and crazed, yet filled with sickening satisfaction.

"Delicious, really delicious." He murmured, his tone filled with unparalleled obsession.

found it.

Compared to death, appetite is his irresistible desire.

This is the highest level of appetite.

The man was immersed in the madness of chewing the meat when he suddenly heard a slight noise in his ears.

He raised his head and glanced fiercely at the source of the sound.

His eyes pierced through the darkness and he saw Xiao Huai.

He paused for a moment, then grinned with his blood-stained mouth and let out a creepy laugh.

"Hahaha! So you are still here! I wanted to eat you from the beginning, but you disappeared." There was a twisted light in his eyes.

He stood up slowly, his originally fat body now looked even more ferocious, and he suddenly pounced forward.

Xiao Huai stood there, motionless, until the opponent was about to approach, then he gently turned sideways and nimbly avoided his attack.

The man's figure fell heavily to the ground, making a dull sound.

After just one fall, anger ignited in his eyes.

That is the frenzy caused by unsatisfied desires.

He was panting, like an enraged wild boar, and rushed towards Xiao Huai again without hesitation.

Xiao Huai remained calm, dodging with light steps, without even a flicker in his eyes.

Just as the man pounced again, the four pairs of elegant giant hands appeared in the sky again.

They used knives and forks to build a huge cage and trapped the man inside.

The trapped man suddenly became quiet.

tired.

hungry.

He looked down at his hands, a strange smile gradually rising at the corners of his mouth. He stretched his fingers towards his flesh and continued to tear off a piece of flesh, stuffing it into his mouth and chewing it slowly.

He ate with great concentration, as if he was using his last moments to satisfy his desires as much as possible.

Since I can't eat others, I have to eat myself.

As long as I can eat my fill, as long as I can eat my fill!

Suddenly, he raised his head and stared at Xiao Huai.

"You're in trouble..." His voice was low and hoarse, but it was filled with suppressed laughter. "Hahaha... Do you know who we are?"

He paused, and the expression on his face became more and more distorted, as if he was waiting for some unspeakable pleasure to come.

"We are—the stranded ones!"

After hearing those words, Xiao Huai's eyes flashed with cold sarcasm.

He chuckled softly and used the adjective mentioned in Rule Five.

noble.

"Yes, you are noble."

The man snorted coldly, his face full of arrogance: "Of course, we stranded people are no match for you guys!"

Xiao Huai's smile deepened, as if he had heard an extremely ridiculous joke.

He tilted his head slightly, "Since you are so willing to stay in this world, then you don't mind being forever hungry."

After he said this, his figure suddenly disappeared without a trace.

The man was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand what Xiao Huai meant. He was about to shout something, but in the next second, the whole world suddenly sounded with a low and strange laugh.

Laughter came from all directions; it was the whole world making fun of his ignorance.

The knife and fork that originally formed the cage also disappeared.

After an unknown amount of time, when he looked down at his body, he found that all the flesh had been eaten up, leaving only a shriveled skeleton.

He's not dead.

The feeling of hunger was like thousands of needles, tearing at every nerve in his body.

"This...how is this possible!" He let out a shrill roar.

However, the whole world became empty and cold, with nothing left.

……

When appetite exceeds reason, it will become a beast that devours itself.

-

Xiao Huai slowly withdrew from the nightmare world, and everything in front of him gradually returned to reality.

In reality, only a few hours had actually passed.

Night has fallen.

He took a deep breath, raised his hand to press his aching forehead, and his body swayed slightly. He had to hold on to the cold concrete wall beside him to steady his steps.

The system interface popped up, and dazzling numbers came into view:

[Hunger value: 64]

Xiao Huai frowned slightly.

Even though the aromatherapy helped them enter the nightmare world smoothly, he still felt tired after dealing with too many stranded people at once and making them fall into the nightmare forever.

He glanced at the group on the ground.

Those bodies have lost their disguises and gradually revealed their true appearance.

A group of gluttons in human skin.

The hourglass is completely full and even has signs of overflowing.

And the hourglass emits a faint foul odor, which is the so-called energy of desire.

No wonder it can't be used directly.

If you use it directly, you might get infected first.

At this moment, an extremely fat body on the ground suddenly twitched.

A beam of deep red light slowly emerged from it, cutting through the air and rushing straight towards Xiao Huai.

Xiao Huai stood where he was, with no intention of avoiding.

The crimson light suddenly stopped beside him, hovered for a moment, then turned into a thin line and disappeared beside his hand.

At the same time, a prompt window pops up:

[Congratulations on successfully collecting the highest level of appetite energy! ]

He gently put away the hourglass.

Because he was too tired, he wanted to fall asleep.

But in order to make himself more awake, Xiao Huai endured the hunger and walked to the rooftop.

I can't just collapse before going back.

Now, not only was he a little hungry in his stomach, but he was also in the realm of hungry ghosts, and his heart was also hungry.

The night wind howled, and the rooftop was empty and silent, with only the lights and neon lights of the Hungry Ghost City shining brightly.

Xiao Huai stood on the edge of the rooftop, the wind blowing his hair. He lowered his eyes, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the cold railing of the rooftop.

Just then, a familiar smell came with the wind.

The smell was faint but distinct, with a presence that could not be ignored.

At that moment, Xiao Huai's heartbeat accelerated slightly. He raised his head and looked around, scanning every corner.

No one is empty.
