Chapter 510 - 8.110 Night Transformation*
Warning: not very descriptive gore
***
Heatwave blasted into Lu Yizhou’s face as soon as the door closed behind him. The engine room was large, filled with numerous turbines and shafts that generated hot exhaust. It spanned over two entire floors and currently, Lu Yizhou was standing on the highest vantage point and could see the entire room in one glance.
Even though the lights were off, the room gave off a creepy green glow as though someone had put on a night vision filter in front of his eyes.
Lu Yizhou furrowed his brow.
...It was too loud. He was unable to detect anyone’s presence in this kind of situation. Hell, even if someone was sneaking around him, Lu Yizhou could only notice if they were less than two meters around him. He only had ten minutes, so Lu Yizhou did not bother to explore this time. [Find them.]
[666: Aye, aye, Host!]
666 might be a total salted fish in the previous quest but its contribution in this quest could not be denied. In less than one minute, 666 had locked in on a few suspicious movements around the engine room.
[Let’s go.] Lu Yizhou tugged the cloak closer around him and directly flipped over the metal railing to land on the second floor.
The floor issued a loud creak as it bore his weight but all sounds were immediately muffled by the roaring engines. Without wasting even one second, Lu Yizhou sped up toward the location closest to him, bypassing the turn and twist of the machines, and directly came face to face with the young man who was the first to be eliminated.
Lu Yizhou halted on his tracks. The young man was slumping against the wall with his head hung low. Blood dyed his entire body crimson and there was a small pool around him. If it was not for Lu Yizhou’s keen eyes which caught the weak movement of the young man’s chest, he would have thought that it was a corpse. Multiple deep gashes could be seen from his body and... it was not knife wounds. Lu Yizhou tried to wrack his brain for a proper description and finally found something closest to it.
