Chapter 143: Submit to Me!
In the end, Wu WU did not tear off her vest, but she did not listen to Meng Chao’s kind advice and did not look for something to cover up herself.
“Continue!”
Wu Wu had not had her fill of fighting yet. She commanded her Ghost Leopard again, and like a pair of twins completely in sync with each other, they charged forward.
Meng Chao’s fighting spirit, however, wavered because of what she did, and he could not get into the mood again.
This was especially so when he saw her slipping shoulder strap. When he was about to attack her shoulder again, he pulled his blade back.
They were actually about the same in strength, but Wu Wu had a Ghost Leopard with her, so the moment Meng Chao was distracted, he would be beaten up, which forced him to retreat repeatedly.
“What are you doing?” Wu Wu let out displeased growls from her throat. “Be serious!”
“I AM serious, okay?!”
Meng Chao gritted his teeth. The last six blades between his fingers turned into six silver ripples that shot at Wu Wu and the Ghost Leopard’s vitals.
There were no longer any flashes of silver about him, and his hands were empty.
Wu Wu was supposed to be able to avoid the dissection blades, but she would need to waste 0.1 seconds for that.
She chose to avoid the first two blades while she clenched up the muscles under her ribs and caught the third blade with her mouth.
Meanwhile, her Ghost Leopard only avoided the first blade that flew at its left eyeball. It used its sturdy pelt to block the other two blades.
The dissection blades were thin as a cicada’s wings. They were nimble and extraordinarily cheap. Their penetration and offense were not actually great, and they could not injure Wu Wu or the Ghost Leopard’s vitals.
At the price of being injured, Wu Wu managed to buy herself 0.03 seconds. Her incredibly fierce knee attack and the Ghost Leopard’s Rotting Claw, which was surrounded by black fog, appeared at the same time in front of Meng Chao.
But he showed no signs of panic.
His eyes crinkled, as if his plan had worked.
In an instant, his abdominal muscles clenched up until they were as tough as steel. He was prepared to withstand Wu Wu’s knee attack.
Then, as if he was performing magic, he brought out a large handgun and pointed it accurately at the Ghost Leopard’s controller ring.
Before the Rotting Claw could tear through his chest, he pulled the trigger.
But no reaction came from his gun barrel.
Meng Chao’s expression changed.
Up till then in their fierce fight, this was the first time he lost his composure.
He shouted loudly, and spirit flames burned madly. It looked as if he had been kicked in the chest by an invisible force, and he fell back in a very strange manner, which allowed him to barely avoid Wu Wu’s knee and the Ghost Leopard’s Rotting Claw.
But Wu Wu had already guessed what he would do. Even her knee attack was a feint. She pounced forward like a hungry lion and immediately turned into an octopus by wrapping her limbs around Meng Chao. Then, she opened her mouth and bit down at his neck.
She did not show any mercy.
She ripped out flesh, and blood gushed into the air.
Meng Chao cried out in pain and shoved Wu Wu away with his knee. When he turned over, his face was stark pale.
He covered his neck, but that could not stop blood from spilling out through the gaps between his fingers. He was surprised and angry, and his body trembled. There was no longer any fighting spirit in his eyes.
Wu Wu licked the sweet blood on her lips and gently caressed her Ghost Leopard’s head. She had a satisfied smile on her lips.
“W-Why?” Meng Chao stared at the handgun on the ground., “Y-You did something to my handgun?” he asked in a croak.
Wu Wu smiled and slowly raised her right arm.
Her right arm was encircled by black spirit tattoos. The spirit flames danced about them like black flames, and they were even thicker, stranger, and more refined than the Ghost’s Leopard’s.
It was Rotting Claw, the unique skill of Ghost Leopards.
It made sense. Since she could become the leader of Ghost Leopards, how was it possible that she would not know this skill?
“You noticed a long time ago that I had a handgun hidden in my boot and realized that all the dissection blades were feints. My real plan was to use a bullet to destroy the biochemical beast’s controller ring. So, during our fight, you destroyed the inner structure of the handgun with your Rotting Claw without my notice?”
Meng Chao’s face turned paler, and he smiled bitterly. “We’re both really strange. I’m in the martial arts course, but I don’t like the Beast Soul Style. You’re a monster controller, but you imitate the fighting style of the Beast Soul Style and use monsters skills. You’re really…”
He had lost a lot of blood, and his voice grew fainter.
Wu Wu walked over.
Meng Chao struggled to take two steps back.
“Are you seriously thinking about eating me?” he asked with slight panic in his voice.
“You’re really tasty. Your blood is sweet.” Wu Wu thought about it carefully and said in a rather troubled manner, “But the lecturer told me to not eat people, or he would chase me back to the monster research center.
“… Fine. I won’t eat you, but you must submit to me.”
Meng Chao’s expression turned strange. “Wu Wu, I didn’t think you had that sort of kink!”
“Huh?”
“What?”
Wu Wu then said, “You submit to me like the Ghost Leopards. In the wild, I am the queen of Ghost Leopards. I am now in the human world, so I will become the queen of humans. You are my first subject. I won’t eat you. We eat other people— Oh, humans can’t eat each other… Then we will lead all humans and eat all monsters.”
The Ghost Leopard she was stroking suddenly shuddered. Its tail hung low, and it behaved as obediently as a cat.
“That’s an important decision. We should talk about it tomorrow.” Meng Chao covered his neck and winced. “We have to focus on emergency treatment now!”
“I controlled my bite strength. You won’t die,” Wu Wu said coldly. “Stop pretending. You’re bleeding too much. It is to trick me and launch a final counterattack. It’s useless.”
“You saw through it?” Meng Chao was dumbfounded. He stared at Wu Wu for a long time, and when her jade green eyes widened because of his staring, he sighed in relief. His skin and lips regained a red flush, and his voice went back to its normal volume. “But you misunderstood what I said. I’m not talking about saving my own life. I’m talking about saving yours!”
“Wha?”
Wu Wu’s expression turned stiff. Suddenly, she lost her balance and took two steps back. She leaned against the trunk beside her, unable to move her limbs.
Meng Chao did not panic. He moved the hand he had used to cover his neck, then… tore off the bloody wound!
“It’s fake. This is man-made skin created of pig skin after it was genetically modified. It’s used to treat burns and corrosions.”
Meng Chao tapped his unharmed neck and flung the man-made skin so that Wu Wu could see the blood pack behind it clearly. “As for the blood that gushed out just now, it wasn’t mine either. It was man-made blood from more than twenty monsters. It’s used for emergency blood transfusions for heavily injured people on the battlefield.
“Of course, I added some stuff in there. There’s tranquilizers, muscle relaxants, snake venom targeting the nerves, along with medicine that increases the release of hormones.
“Don’t worry, I have anti-snake venom serum in my bag. With your physical constitution, if I inject you with that serum in time, you will just need a night’s sleep to recover. You won’t suffer any sequelae.”
Wu Wu was shocked. Her eyelids slowly closed, and her jaw gradually fell slack. She raised her arm with great difficulty and bit her wrist viciously to use the pain to force herself to wake up, but she could not stop the feeling of the world spinning in front of her invading her senses like a tidal wave.
“Your handgun was a trap?” she mumbled, unable to believe what had happened.
“Of course. I’ve used this tactic of breaking the controller ring and making the biochemical beasts lose control seven times by now. You’re smart. When you saw the carcasses, you’d definitely be prepared for this move. Would I use the same trick and walk straight into your trap?” Meng Chao asked.
“Besides, this isn’t an arena. The university has a rule stating that we aren’t allowed to use guns as we like outside. From the start, I never thought about using even a single bullet.”
Wu Wu slid down the trunk and lay limp on the ground. She could not move her limbs and had to satisfy herself with just glaring at Meng Chao with her jade green eyes.
“Don’t be so angry. Compared to monsters, the greatest advantage of humans is our brains.” Meng Chao smiled, revealing his pearly white teeth. “If you suddenly opened your mouth to bite Sun Ya, Xie Feng, Jiang Rui, and Duan Lian, those fragile flowers would definitely suffer a great shock and be scared witless.
“But that’s useless against me.
“Human jaws and teeth aren’t suited for biting. Our ancestors used millions of years of evolution to gain advanced brains and agile hands, so there’s no reason for us to give up on them and act like felines, right?”
Wu Wu pursed her lips tightly.
She was angry now.
Even though her limbs were numb, she could continue growling. So she controlled her Ghost Leopard to pounce on Meng Chao.
But once it was no longer able to cooperate with its monster controller, the Ghost Leopard’s movements were full of fatal weaknesses in Meng Chao’s eyes.
And he did something Wu Wu did not expect.
He grabbed her limp body and used her as a shield.
The Ghost Leopard could not help but freeze for a moment in the air.
Meng Chao did not hesitate. He treated Wu Wu as his human morningstar and tossed her at the Ghost Leopard.
Meanwhile, he followed closely after like a ghost.
When the Ghost Leopard moved away to avoid crashing into its master, Meng Chao attacked like lightning.
The Ultimate Style could make spirit energy last for a long time. His attacks were dense and tightly packed together. He brought out the style’s characteristic of connecting all attacks to its fullest.
For half a minute, the Ghost Leopard was like a broken sac. Meng Chao hit it in the air, and the feline tumbled about, unable to land on the ground.
Hundreds of punches landed on its body like a violent storm. The Ghost Leopard’s tendons and bones broke, and it coughed up blood. It no longer had any strength to defend itself.
It was only at that moment that Meng Chao calmly created a spirit magnetic field. With a fierce Demon Subduing Slash, he sent the Ghost Leopard more than ten meters away, like a kite with its string snapped.
Wu Wu’s mind was connected with the Ghost Leopard, so they shared their senses.
Pain, anger, and humiliation were on her face.
“Don’t worry. I know that this Ghost Leopard isn’t a normal biochemical beast made by Agricultural University. I didn’t end its life. You can treat it and strengthen it.”
Meng Chao squatted down and carefully examined Wu Wu’s wounds.
She had dozens of them of varying sizes on her body. She locked them down with her muscles so they would not bleed, but she had drunk the man-made blood Meng Chao had carefully made with added stuff. The muscle relaxants showed their effect. Her wounds were open, and blood flowed all over the ground.
At that moment, it was her turn to have her face and lips turn as white as a sheet.
Meng Chao injected the anti-snake venom serum in her.
Then, he used his tattered coat to wrap up some of the larger wounds.
Wu Wu’s physical constitution was really good. Very soon, her blood stopped flowing.
During the entire process, Wu Wu did not move. She just let Meng Chao move her about while she stared at him unblinkingly with wide and sparkling eyes.
When Meng Chao dragged the unconscious Ghost Leopard over so she could see that it was still alive and performed basic examination and treated it, her expression finally relaxed.
Her eyes turned from jade green to dark black.
She let out a soft whine, and her head tilted to the side. She fainted in front of Meng Chao.
