The apocalyptic livestream attracted a lot of haters, alarming the government.

[The Fisherman's Spring: Seriously? Still not dead?]

[Three Foxes: No way! Their core's been removed, how can they not be dead?]

[Dawn's Flame: Who knows if this ghostly thing will remain unscathed even after it's dead?]

[The Heart of Isaac: That looks like a person!]

[Black frame: Don't let your guard down]

……

The sac, which had been intact, suddenly ruptured, tearing open like blooming petals, and the liquid inside poured out with a gushing sound.

Those directly below quickly took cover, but fortunately, there were countless pink, sticky, muscle-like tissues embedded in the ground and earthen walls.

The massive pillars intertwined overhead, creating a considerable area and space where people could find shelter.

The group, who had no time to celebrate killing the mutated plant, frantically searched for a place to hide.

The three of them—Baihu, Ye Xiao, and Han Yu—just happened to come together.

The white fox asked, bewildered, "What happened? Did we crack that thing?"

Han Yu shook his head, flicked a drop of acidic water off the back of his hand, and said:

"It shouldn't be; it looks like it cracked on its own."

Ye Xiao frowned, remembering the seed core he had put away, and lowered his eyes to mutter uneasily.

"Could this thing still be alive?"

Han Yu took a deep breath, his expression remaining completely unchanged.

"Hard to say, this thing is so strange, it's probably not as easy to kill as a normal mutated plant."

Drip, drip, the acidic liquid dripped down from above, the flow gradually weakening, with only a few drops lingering for a long time before finally falling precariously.

Several skeletons, their flesh and blood corroded, lay scattered not far away, emitting a bloody stench that sent chills down one's spine.

Ye Xiao involuntarily swallowed hard, while the fans watching this scene on the screen gasped and screamed.

The white fox pursed its lips in silence and sighed, "These people are really pitiful."

He looked at Ye Xiao and said, "After we breathed fire, our sacs secreted a lot of acid. They were probably there around that time..."

Ye Xiao glanced indifferently at the skeleton not far away and said:

"The surviving adventurers and Tyrannosaurus have all left. The rest are either from Rattlesnake, Freefire, or the base. Since they can cooperate, there's no need to hold back against them."

Han Yu nodded vigorously beside him, "That's right, they deserved to die!"

Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow and glanced at the white fox, saying, "Besides, the Free Fire has a grudge against us. If they don't die, they won't let us off easily."

After waiting a moment and seeing that there was no longer any threat, Ye Xiao stepped out of the hiding area and looked up.

Ha ha……

A strange breathing sound came from above. Zhou Hu and his group heard the sound and came out to look up at the situation.

A nimble figure leaped and landed beside Ye Xiao; it was Ye Xing.

She was half-bent over, arms outstretched in a posture ready to attack at any moment, her brows furrowed, and a fierce red glint in her eyes—the gaze of someone intently watching their enemy and prey.

Seeing Ye Xing's condition, Ye Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately called out:

"Everyone on alert!"

Before Chen Ge and his companions could even figure out what was happening outside, they heard Ye Xiao's shout and instinctively raised their flamethrowers.

"Boss, look up there!"

Han Yu's hoarse shout was tinged with a hint of fear, as if it were filled with terror.

Ye Xiao quickly looked up at the huge object swinging in the sky.

They were already five or six stories above the sac, which was torn open in an abnormal manner.

The tear didn't look man-made; the two sides were symmetrically spread out, like outstretched arms, and you could still see the charred marks left by Ye Xiao and the others using their muskets.

Besides, there were many others stuck to that huge fleshy wall. Their bodies were pressed tightly against the fleshy wall, and it seemed that they had been mostly fused together, with only parts of their heads and bodies remaining. They were writhing and howling in pain on the fleshy wall.

On the branch of this giant flower bud, a human figure was fused and attached.

The man's clothes had been corroded to the point that only a few scattered fragments remained. Large patches of pink flesh, as if newly grown, were visible on his shoulders and chest, no longer bearing the original features of his chest.

His hair seemed to have been completely corroded away, and the skin on his back and the back of his hands had completely merged with the pink fleshy pillar behind him. His legs had completely merged into the branches.

After Ye Xiao carefully examined the face, he couldn't help but gasp, pointed at the person above, and murmured:

"Hey, isn't that Yan Ge from Freefire?"

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Chen Ge, A Zhao, and Da Hei quickly looked over. After recognizing the other person's face, the three of them nodded blankly.

Big Black snorted coldly, "Heh, this guy really deserves it."

Ah Zhao also let out a soft snort, spat to the side, and looked like he had gotten his revenge.

"Ah! Ah!"

A painful scream came from above. Because he had merged with the fleshy walls behind him, the muscles and skin on his face were taut and twisted in a horrifying way by the pink flesh.

His body struggled violently above him, trembling, his mouth wide open, roaring.

Those bulging eyes seemed to see Ye Xiao and the others below, and a fierce look quickly surged in them. It was a venomous look, like that of a snake, filled with intense hatred and resentment, as it roared with a hoarse voice.

"Damn it, damn it, why? It's you, it's you!"

His words were incoherent and chaotic, but Ye Xiao could understand what he meant. He was probably resentful and unwilling to accept that Ye Xiao and the others were safe and sound while he himself had ended up in this predicament.

"Ha, do you know what this is called? Evil begets evil!"

Ye Xiao, hands on his hips, shouted loudly, "Even God can't stand scum like you!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk!"

Ye Xiao shook his head. "Look at the state you're in now. Do you want me to give you a ride?"

That expression was so irritating that even the viewers in the live stream thought it was infuriating.

[Pharaoh Elden: My brother Xiao is getting more and more annoying.]

[Three Foxes: My brother Xiao definitely did it on purpose!]

[Big Cousin: To put it another way, it's like saying, "Come and hit me! Come and hit me!"]

[Hip-Hop Monster: You're so cheeky, don't get slapped in the face later.]

……

If it were the previous Chi Yan, he would never have been so easily provoked by Ye Xiao, but now Chi Yan has merged with the monster, his rationality has long been abandoned, and he only has anger and the instinct to kill and feed.

"I'll kill you all! I'll kill you all!"

"None of you are leaving here!"

On the massive fleshy pillar, Chi Yan roared and struggled violently. With his roar, the huge, open fleshy sac began to shake violently, and the black tentacles above, which had been lifeless, seemed to come alive again.

Ye Xiao frowned, looking at the black tentacles that had suddenly revived, and muttered to himself:

"Does that mean I've fused with this monster?"

"Boss, look at his chest!"

Chest?

Ye Xiao focused his gaze on Chi Yan's chest. In that location, where the mutant's seed core should have been orange, a crimson light and enlarged red veins were bulging out.

Ye Xiao clicked his tongue.

"Tsk, so it really is a fusion mutation?"
