Chapter 9 Monster Talks Monster

When Jason finished speaking, Alas pulled the trigger.

Suddenly, the rocket flew out slowly and really fast.

Whoosh!

boom!

Fire broke out, but the door of the mansion was not damaged in any way.

Alas turned to look at Jason.

"continue."

Jason said this, and then he methodically took out the energy bars one by one, tore open the packaging, and placed them on the wooden crate nearby that used the packaging box as a tablecloth.

After a while, the energy bar formed two 'hills' that were as tall as a normal person and as thick as a thigh.

And that's just for a big bag of energy bars.

There are at least close to a hundred such bags.

Jason spent less than one-sixth of the money he gave Alas, and the rest was put in his backpack, and Alas returned it to Jason again.

"oh!"

Alas nodded, loaded the gun again, and pulled the trigger.

Whoosh!

boom!

The explosion started again.

This time there was no pause. Amidst the continuous explosions, Alas scurried around excitedly, changing rockets from time to time to grenades and explosives.

Although it was hundreds of meters away from the mansion, it was really easy for the strong Alas to throw grenades and explosives into the mansion from this distance.

Boom boom boom!

The hold lasted nearly twenty minutes.

When Alas threw bundles of explosives in again, a crack finally appeared on a courtyard wall near the gate of the mansion.

Then, the crack began to spread and grow larger.

Finally, with a roar, it collapsed.

Not only the courtyard wall, but also the gate collapsed.

Jason and Alas finally saw clearly what was going on in the mansion.

With sloping floors, protruding walls, and uneven and twisted corners, the corridor spread deep, but there was a shadow. Jason's vision was far beyond ordinary people's and he was sure that it was blocked.

Jason saw it, and Alas saw it too.

Same thing…

Some people in the mansion also saw Jason and Alas.

When you can't see 'them', 'they' can't see you either.

But when you see ‘them’.

Of course ‘they’ also saw you.

"What architectural style is this?"

"Eh?!"

The tall, strong lady scratched her head. She was a little confused, but her instinct told her that something dangerous was approaching.

Subconsciously, she tightened her grip on the grenade in her hand.

Just at this moment.

Woo!

The wind was strong.

The cold breath was like the river water after the dam broke, swarming out from the tattered courtyard wall.

A trace of horror flashed across Alas's beautiful almond eyes.

She saw countless illusory figures that were about to rush in and drown her.

Instinctively, Alas was about to throw out the two grenades.

However, Jason took a step forward, raised his hand and pointed——

yi!

The special force field of [Protection from Evil] is activated with [Curse Seal Reproduction].

Suddenly, countless illusory figures swarmed in, comparable to the tide.

The special force field formed by the [Protection from Evil] with the power of a 'chariot' blocked these illusory figures. They roared in anger, but they were unable to move forward.

But the curse mark in Jason's hand did not stop.

si ot yn!

'i!

Another special force field [Protection from Evil] shot out.

Immediately, the special force field that had just been blocking these illusory figures turned from defense to offense. It moved forward slowly, just like a real chariot, crushing over those illusory figures.

The illusory figure let out an even more terrifying howl, but it was useless.

Under the crushing force of this special force field, they can only be shattered into pieces.

Then, Jason turned around and opened his mouth.

He swallowed two small piles of energy bars into his mouth.

There is no doubt that he can recover his strength from 'food'.

So is regular food ok?

Of course it is possible.

It's just that the energy contained in ordinary food is so low that it is almost negligible to him.

Therefore, he chose ‘energy bars’ for bodybuilders to replenish their physical strength and protein.

This is an alternative option when there is no 'holy water' or 'dried meat' to prepare.

A large number of energy bars were chewed into his mouth and swallowed into his stomach. Jason could feel the slightest heat rising from his stomach and spreading into his body. His physical strength was recovering at an accelerated pace.

Everything was as he thought.

But...why are your teeth so sticky?

He never thought that an 'energy bar' would be so sticky to his teeth.

Also, the taste is average.

Although it is labeled with chocolate, fresh milk and various fruit flavors, when chewing, only a little bit of the flavor seeps out, and the rest is sticky to the teeth.

Even with Jason's teeth, he had to chew twice more before swallowing.

But after being consumed by Jason's powerful, furnace-like stomach, the nutrition from the energy bar quickly turned into physical strength.

After a few breaths, Jason turned around again and raised his hand.

si ot yn!

'i!

The special force field [Protection from Evil] appeared again. It was integrated into the previous force field. Immediately, the slowly moving force field began to accelerate, and more illusory figures were crushed.

And Jason didn't stop.

He swallowed a large amount of energy bars again, followed by a [Protection from Evil].

After repeating this cycle several times, the forward [Protection from Evil] force field seemed to turn into an advancing chariot, rushing into the mansion at full speed.

boom!

A huge explosion followed, and the ground trembled.

This sound far exceeded the previous explosions produced by Alas using gunpowder weapons.

Likewise, the power is also significant.

The collapsed corner of the courtyard wall continued to collapse, and cracks appeared on the floor and walls of the mansion.

Then, more cold energy surged out.

If the cold energy before was like the tide after the dam broke, then this time it is like the huge waves rising on the sea.

In the invisible giant waves, a seed suddenly appeared, and it began to take root and sprout. In a breath, a flower with white petals and yellow near the stamen appeared in the tide.

In the cold wave, this flower blooms like an egg, with yellow and white colors, and is extremely tough.

Looking at this flower, even Alas, who couldn't name the flower, felt full of hope in his heart.

But the next moment!

This flower started**!

It's rotten, not withered.

Dark colors fill the flowers.

A sense of hopelessness began to spread.

Alas frowned slightly.

She doesn't like such despair.

Jason didn't like it either.

Therefore, Jason was very direct, raised his hand and hit [Protect from Evil] again!

After having enough physical strength, Jason no longer hesitates to use [Protection from Evil].

Special force fields at the level of tanks rushed into the tide.

A single battlefield may be left alone in the face of the tide.

But what about ten or a hundred?

Or maybe a thousand?

Quantitative changes always lead to qualitative changes.

The cold energy began to melt under the special force field of [Protection from Evil], and this speed began to accelerate as Jason continued to use [Protection from Evil].

The beautiful flowers began to sway.

Alas, who had been standing next to Jason, suddenly felt confused in his eyes.

"Xiao Meow? Xiao Meow?"

"Come here quickly."

"Dad, why did you crawl out of the grave?"

"Didn't I burn you to ashes?"

Alas murmured softly.

Jason also had visions before his eyes.

A splendid hall, a dining table with no end in sight, and delicacies appeared one after another, carried by waiters.

It's just... when the waiters approached Jason, they all turned around and ran away with frightened faces.

Then, the illusion before Jason's eyes disappeared.

The beautiful flowers swayed farther away.

No!

Not swaying.

But it vibrates.

Extremely violent shaking.

There were obvious cracks on the petals.

"You lied to me!"

"waste!"

"You might as well be that 'kitchen'!"

Jason roared angrily, first hitting Alas with a [Protection from Evil] shot, and then began to shoot out special force fields at a faster speed than before.

Real illusion?

Although it is most likely fake, Jason doesn't mind trying it.

What you eat should be fake, but the taste is very real.

He will be hungry, but at least he can remember the taste.

But why did they run away one by one just after they arrived in front of him, and the illusion was gone?

Is he that scary?

He just wanted to taste it.

His hope failed, the angry Jason launched an even more violent attack on the mansion in front of him.

Snap!

**The flowers have completely spread out.

The petals fall to the ground.

The rhizome is completely withered.

The wave-like cold atmosphere suddenly disappeared.

The sun shines down, making it warm.

"it's over?"

Alas blinked.

Jason didn't answer. He picked up two grenades from the side and threw them at the tower in the mansion.

Jason could see very clearly that in this riddled mansion, the tower and another low building were intact. Although they were shaking constantly, there were no cracks.

Boom, boom!

During the explosion, the tower shook even more violently.

The entire mansion also began to tremble.

Click.

When the shaking reached an extreme, the ground inside the mansion cracked.

A cylinder mixed with bones, flesh, and metal slowly rose up, and one of the heads was very conspicuous.

"It's the client!"

Alas pointed at the head and exclaimed.

Such exclamation seemed to attract the attention of the cylinder.

It turned slightly so that the client was facing Alas.

Then, the eyes of the head opened.

A strange gaze, like substance, was directed at Alas.

But it was useless. Jason, who did not smell any substantial 'food' fragrance, had already watched everything vigilantly. He quickly completed the hand seal again, slapped Alas with another [Protection from Evil], and then swallowed it.

After collecting enough energy bars, hit [Protect from Evil] again.

The cylinder mixed with bones, flesh, and metal began to rotate rapidly.

The surrounding ground began to tremble with this rotation.

Not a slight one, but a tremor comparable to a major earthquake.

The ground began to crack.

The water on one side of the lake began to roll.

The sunshine that was warm just now has lost its temperature again.

The cracked ground is where Jason and Alas placed their energy bars and weapons.

"careful!"

Alas shouted loudly, but it was too late.

In just an instant, these energy rods and weapons completely fell into the cracks in the ground and disappeared.

More importantly, the sense of dislocation I encountered before reappeared.

Alas was just in a daze for a moment, and found that he was already standing in the mansion.

And Jason?

He even appeared in front of that strange column.

Without any hesitation, Alas picked up a fallen marble column in front of him and rushed toward the column.

"Let Jason go!"

Alas yelled.

The thick marble pillar requires both hands even if Alas holds it.

Compared with it, the strange column immediately seemed much slender.

Bang!

The two collided, the marble pillar was completely shattered, and Alas flew back.

But, immediately, Alas stood up, picked up another marble column again, and rushed towards the strange column.

"it's useless."

"It's all useless."

Another voice suddenly appeared.

It seems to be an auditory hallucination, and it also seems to come from... a strange rotating cylinder.

Alas was stunned.

An even stranger and terrifying energy began to gather inside the column.

Standing in front of the column, Jason seemed helpless. When he sensed this energy, he took action immediately.

si ot yn!

'i!

The [Protection from Evil] force field once again followed his finger and hit an area of ​​the strange cylinder.

There is some carrion here.

After Jason's fingertips released a special force field, the piece of rotten flesh cracked open, and a dignified girl's face appeared behind the rotten flesh. She was very clean and had a sweet smile.

Her eyes looked at Jason.

"Is this your last time?"

"Your energy is exhausted."

"You can no longer command such power."

Her mouth didn't move, but the sound appeared in Jason's ears like an auditory hallucination.

"Um."

Jason nodded.

This is a fact, he admitted.

Then……

Another one [protection from evil].

He has no physical strength anymore.

But he still has... life!

16 items!

Enough!

Bang!

The heart then burst, and the special force field [Protection from Evil] enveloped the girl in the strange column.

"ah!"

The other party screamed.

"Jason!"

Alas roared in the distance.

She heard the sound of Jason's heart breaking.

Jason used his life to fight the monster in front of him again!

Jason didn't have to die, she was the one who dragged him here!

Self-blame, regret, and anger instantly made Alas lose his mind.

She rushed straight towards the strange column, dancing her fists rapidly, bringing up layers of shadows.

Bang bang bang bang!

The fists continuously collided with the cylinder.

The special breathing method taught by my mother turned into a battle cry.

Euler Euler Euler Euler!

Amidst the refreshing and heroic blows, the strange column was shaken to the point of collapse.

"it's useless."

"Such power is of no use to me."

"That man's power is directed at me."

"It's a pity that after I discovered the weakness, I could only give it a fatal blow."

"The physical strength is greatly consumed. Such a weakness is too obvious...but such power is really terrifying. This man and his power should not appear in this world."

"Fortunately, he is dead."

The hallucinated voice sounded again.

However, compared with before, I feel obviously weak.

The girl's appearance also began to look older.

But still dignified.

Even though it seems to be with lingering fear, it has not changed, as if everything is not worth caring about.

But the next moment, such dignity disappeared.

Because Jason, who had just died, came to life again!

Right under its gaze!

It stared at Jason with wide eyes. Jason, who was obviously lifeless a moment ago, was now full of life again, and his eyes were full of confusion.

Jason hit [Protect from Evil] again.

Bang!

The heart is broken again.

But then he was resurrected, and then there was another [Protection from Evil]!

Faced with such a shocking fact, the strange column immediately moved away.

However, he was hugged by Jason.

His thick arms held him firmly in his arms.

"Come on, let's continue!"

Jason said with a ferocious smile.

"Monster! Monster!"

"Get away! Monster"

"You stay away from me!"

What looked like a girl inside the strange column was shouting strangely and loudly.

Unfortunately, the voice is getting weaker and weaker.

Finally, after a loud bang, the entire column began to collapse.

A pearl-like piece of 'food' fell, and Jason raised his hand to catch it. After taking a deep breath of the sweet taste, he turned his head and grinned at Alas, who was stunned, at a loss, and somewhat in a trance.

He asked softly——

"Have you ever heard of the legend of the 'immortal'?"
