Yun You looked at the ground with joy, but soon realized the headless monster hadn't left much food for her.

The little girl didn't kill many people this time, only four small thugs, plus Qian Sanjin.

In terms of "nutritional value," even if their number were multiplied by 10, they wouldn't compare to that Mad Spirit guy.

These pitiful five corpses, during the battle, were devoured by the headless monster, leaving Yun You with only two chunks of wreckage shattered by the heartbeat shock wave.

As for the monster itself? It had long turned to ashes.

"Really such a loss..."

Yun You muttered softly.

But the meal still had to be eaten.

So, the little girl sighed helplessly and honestly began to absorb.

...

A few minutes later, much of the corpses and bloodstains on the ground disappeared, except for the elderly man whose skull was shattered, lying there.

Not absorbing ordinary people who had never provoked her was Yun You's bottom line.

If unnecessary, she wouldn't touch these people's bodies.

Moreover, for her now, the two wrecked corpses were enough for her to absorb.

Perhaps due to the reason that the internal organs and bones were completely shattered, Yun You always felt those two gangsters had a very "soft and glutinous" taste, as if savoring a bursting cheese sausage...

Just a slight absorption, and warm energy spouted out, making the "eating" quite enjoyable.

However, just like eating fried chicken and burgers, this stuff, aside from filling the belly and slightly treating Yun You's internal injuries, didn't serve much purpose.

They couldn't, like the Apprentice Death God's remains, enhance Yun You's power.

There's a huge difference in energy quality between the two.

And Yun You's "appetite" has grown bigger and greedier with each meal.

Ordinary food can no longer satisfy her.

Energy is conserved, it won't disappear into thin air, nor grow or weaken mysteriously.

Yun You understood this principle, so she was already aware of it.

"It seems I'll have to hunt more Apprentice Death Gods in the future."

The little girl silently thought, then rose and walked to the corner formerly painted with a pentagram pattern.

Here, the headless monster's figure had long vanished, leaving only piles of gray-green ash.

Originally, Yun You thought that guy left nothing, slinking away like a miserly iron rooster.

Yet after scrutinizing for a few moments, she glimpsed an unusual object beneath the layers of ash.

It was a golden metal disk, about a finger thick, entirely golden, hefty in hand, weighing at least over five pounds.

The top side was polished very smoothly, like a copper mirror, clearly reflecting Yun You's face.

While the bottom side was carved with numerous bizarre reliefs, with people kneeling with hands clasped, fiendish little demons wielding steel forks, and even grotesque monsters wantonly slaughtering mortals in the relief depicted world.

However, the most numerous and striking images belonged to a floating Lotus Platform, and the "Extraordinary" sitting cross-legged on it.

Their bodies are towering, with three heads and six arms, each hand making a hand seal or holding a ritual implement, and a golden halo behind them, accentuating their greatness and exceptionality.

The gaze of these transcendent individuals is peaceful, their expressions seemingly carrying a desire to "save all living beings."

Yet expression is one thing, actual action is another.

Facing the bullied people and worshiping believers, the Extraordinaries never truly intervened, just watching the earthly matters with a faint smile chilling enough to freeze one's spine.

Had their image not been so righteous, Yun You would have thought these Extraordinaries were actually siding with the monsters.

But thinking carefully, perhaps there really is such a possibility...

"A strange thing."

Yun You surveyed the disk in her hand, inevitably recalling the white crystal picked up from the suit robot's ashes before.

These Mutant Creatures seemed like elite monsters in video games, leaving no corpse when defeated, but always dropping some odd item...

"Could it be a hidden object?"

The little girl pondered, then took out the crystal from her pocket, pressing them together while silently chanting "fusion"!

And naturally, nothing happened.

She tried bumping, knocking, even attempted the legendary "blood recognition."

But ultimately, neither of these unfortunate things changed at all.

"So annoying..."

Yun You scratched her head, complaining carefully, "Should have asked Old Jin."

"Well, never mind, maybe it's a special item requiring certain conditions to use."

"Better ask Old Jin inside the [Ethernet] later."

Thinking this, the girl packed the crystal, along with the metal disk.

She walked several steps towards the door, intending to call Kasidelle guarding outside.

But just then, the Red Scale on her hand suddenly hummed loudly, shooting a beam of red light!

This light seemed like an invisible hand, firmly grabbing Yun You's arm and spirit, forcibly halting her step.

Yun You slightly paused.

Subconsciously, she followed the beam and looked where it pointed.

On the bare concrete ground, two Mantis Blades flickering with yellow lightning quietly lay there.

This was the only weapon prosthetic from a giant enterprise in the Insect Gang, and in the fierce battle, the only undamaged Mantis Blade.

Yun You intended to take this sharp blade as her close weapon.

But now, she lost that thought.

Because upon nearing the Mantis Blade, the Red Scale kept flickering, even conveying an unprecedented "desire" through consciousness exchange to Yun You.

It seemed to want the Mantis Blade...

Or rather, wanted to "consume it."

Just like Yun You "eating people," the flaming Giant Claw hidden within the Red Scale also wanted a great feast! To swallow the metal and parts from the Mantis Blade into the nonexistent gluttonous stomach.

"Are you sure you want to eat it?"

At first, Yun You was somewhat skeptical if she was hallucinating.

After all, Nest City had an overwhelming number of insane individuals.

Installing too many prosthetics, taking the wrong medicine, killing too many people, even overconsuming nutrition liquids from small workshops could lead to cyber psychosis.

Brains tormented by illness, hallucinating, is entirely normal.

But the Red Scale released an even stronger red light, fiercely tugging Yun You's arm, expressing displeasure and urgency through actual actions.

This time, Yun You finally believed she hadn't contracted cyber psychosis.
