Devouring all things: I possess the energy of chaos.

Looking at the generated backtracking point, Mo Hong didn't know its specific function.

After fiddling with it for a long time without figuring out how to use it, I had no choice but to give up.

Although he felt bad about losing 100 Devouring Points, Mo Hong comforted himself, believing that the fused object must have some important purpose.

Putting these thoughts aside, Mo Hong immediately immersed himself in cultivation.

For him, the purple mist was ultimately an external thing; everything still depended on his own strength...

Days passed by, and in the blink of an eye, ten days had gone by for Mo Hong, leaving only twenty days until the college entrance examination.

During this period, Mo Hong continuously improved his physical fitness and addressed some of the flaws and shortcomings of his signature move, the Draw Sword Slash.

In his spare time, Mo Hong also inquired about his father Mo Shanheng's situation and told him that he had been admitted to a top martial arts university in advance.

Mo Shanheng was so excited about this that he took a day off and had a video call with Mo Hong for more than two hours.

For a moment, the father and son talked intimately and without reservation. "Mo Hong, my son, you've grown up. I can't control what happens in the future. I only hope that you will work hard in the future, not waste your martial arts talent, and strive to become a useful martial artist for the alliance."

"Dad, I definitely will. You need to be careful over there too. If the wind turns wrong, you have to come back even if you have to give up your job."

Mo Hong said worriedly.

"Silly boy, your dad wouldn't be so selfish. The company hasn't left yet, and I have no face to leave alone. I still have some things to take care of, so I'll talk to you later."

Mo Shanheng chuckled and gave a reprimand, then hung up the phone.

As night fell, Yanyang City remained brightly lit.

The administrative body of the Inspection and Supervision Division.

Inside an executive room.

Jiang Cheng frowned as he reviewed the reports from below regarding the appearance of monsters; there were more than twenty such cases in total.

Several serious cases occurred mainly on the outskirts of the city, where entire families were wiped out overnight, and the bodies at the crime scenes were mutilated and showed severe bite marks.

If Yanyang City weren't inland and didn't have lakes, Jiang Cheng couldn't even imagine what would have happened if it did.

"We have to inform the military. This kind of situation hasn't happened in nearly twenty years, and it's beyond my control."

Jiang Cheng rubbed his temples and sighed softly.

"Xiaoxue should have been with her mother for a while now."

Jiang Cheng couldn't help but think of his daughter, Jiang Shuxue.

"Bang bang bang!"

A knock on the door interrupted Jiang Cheng's reverie. Jiang Cheng frowned slightly and said calmly, "Come in."

Two young men in military uniforms held up white documents and said in a low voice, "Lord Jiang, these are some recent monster attacks. Please take a look."

"Alright, you can all leave now."

Jiang Cheng gave the order.

However, the other person took out a box and said in a low voice, "Sir, this is a letter from your daughter, Jiang Shuxue."

Jiang Cheng was slightly taken aback when he saw the familiar and cute items hanging below the box, but he didn't suspect anything.

After Jiang Cheng took the box, he eagerly opened it in front of the two of them.

As the box was opened, a wisp of black mist rushed toward Jiang Cheng with lightning speed, transforming into a giant maw with sharp teeth.

Jiang Cheng was horrified. Before he could even react, his entire head was swallowed by the giant mouth of the black mist.

For a moment, the room was filled with the sounds of chewing and muffled, pig-like screams.

However, the screams seemed to be blocked and could not be heard, and they grew fainter and fainter.

With each chew, a portion of the black mist seeped into Jiang Cheng's body.

Jiang Cheng reappeared in sight once the black mist dissipated.

"daughter……"

After the image of his daughter appeared in his mind for the last time, tears involuntarily streamed down his face, and Jiang Cheng's consciousness completely faded into darkness.

The two people standing to the side remained expressionless, as if they had lost their souls.

"Delicious, truly delicious. Is it the peak of the Profound Rank? But the taste of a human powerhouse's soul is the most satisfying."

Jiang Cheng licked his lips and grinned.

"This human really cared deeply for his daughter; he was thinking about her even on his deathbed."

After receiving the memories of this body, Du Kui smiled.

"You two, tomorrow, notify all the teachers and students of Yanyang No. 1 Middle School and Yanyang No. 2 Middle School. Find a reason to have them gather at the zoo in the west of the city. Just say that I have something important to announce."

"By the way, inform the Xuan-rank experts in Yanyang City to come and summon me. I'm a little hungry now."

A purple light flickered in the eyes of the two youths, and they nodded listlessly.

Only Jiang Cheng remained in the room, along with the box that had fallen to the ground.

The box contained an unopened letter, signed at the bottom as Jiang Shuxue.

……

The next morning, Mo Hong got up very early.

Then he saw a series of message pop-ups appear on his phone, which made Mo Hong pause slightly.

When Mo Hong opened it, he saw that it was full of notices from the school group and discussions among students, all of which had more than 99 messages.

"Hmm? All teachers and students have to go to the Star Pet Zoo in the west of the city. Wasn't that zoo abandoned a few years ago?"

Mo Hong frowned slightly.

Mo Hong got dressed and hurried to the school to assemble.

Although he was admitted early, he has not yet graduated and is still a student of Yanyang No. 2 Middle School.

Mo Hong arrived at school soon after taking the school shuttle bus from home.

At this moment, most of the high school students had already gathered in the school square, and there was a constant murmur of discussion.

Most of the first and second-year high school students seemed very happy, thinking they were going to participate in some kind of activity.

As for the senior high school students, there were many complaints. After all, they were about to take the college entrance examination in about ten days, but they were not allowed to study hard at this time.

For a time, many senior high school students secretly cursed the school leaders.

Mo Hong then spotted the sign for the elite class in the crowd and walked straight over to it.

Some people in the elite class were somewhat surprised to notice Mo Hong, this rare guest.

The main reason is that Mo Hong has not attended classes for so many days, and only a few school officials know about Mo Hong's early admission, leading many of them to believe that Mo Hong has either dropped out or suspended his studies.

Shi Tianhao, from the elite class, glanced at Mo Hong a few times with a complicated expression.

After returning, he never mentioned his trip to the No. 1 Middle School again. Since being deeply traumatized, he has been intensifying his cultivation these days.

Mo Hong didn't care about these intentional or unintentional glances, and remained quietly in place as if no one was around.

Are all students in each class present?

Hu Tianren, the director of teaching affairs, inquired about the instructors of each class.

After everyone had arrived, Hu Tianren announced, "Everyone, get on the bus and let's go."

And so, Yanyang No. 2 Middle School set off.

"They didn't even explain what they went there to do."

Hu Tianren frowned. He asked the people in the patrol and inspection department, but they were all keeping a close watch on things.

However, their school had no choice but to comply, because to some extent, the Inspectorate was the local representative agency of the Allied military, carrying out orders issued by the military.
