Zhong Kui's Diary
The shadow in front of me drew closer, and I finally got a clear look at his face. His eyes were tightly shut, and his features were ancient and weathered. The expression on his face was extremely strange, a mix of seeming laughter and anger, embodying both the primitive and the bizarre in a single visage.
I initially thought he was blind, but then he suddenly opened his eyes. The moment I saw them, I was taken aback because his eyes were also glowing with a Green Light. Moreover, these eyes were much greener than those I had seen on the Severed Limbs, resembling two emerald beads, crystal clear and shimmering.
"Are you going to shoot or not?" A peculiar smile appeared on his face, seeming to mock or disdain me.
I gritted my teeth and switched to a Submachine Gun, firing directly at him.
While the Shotgun had great power, it couldn't fire continuously, allowing him to dodge left and right. Now that I had switched to the Submachine Gun, I could spray bullets back and forth; let's see how you dodge this.
To my surprise, he completely ignored the bullets from my Submachine Gun, letting them hit him without flinching. His body seemed to be like the Four Great Limbs, able to heal itself automatically. The bullets from the Submachine Gun were quickly pushed out by his rapidly healing skin, falling to the ground with a series of clinks.
Yet he did not pause in his steps, slowly approaching me as if the bullets were merely mosquito bites.
By the time I had emptied the magazine of my Submachine Gun, he casually extended his thumb and index finger, pinching out a bullet that was about to be expelled from his chest. With a firm squeeze, he flattened the already deformed bullet into a thin disc and tossed it aside. He looked at me with a grin: "E n!"
"Forget it, I'm not shooting anymore." I dejectedly lowered my gun; against such a monster, ordinary bullets seemed ineffective. I considered using a Grenade, but if he could dodge bullets so easily, how could he not evade a Grenade? It was likely that as soon as I threw it, he would vanish without a trace.
"Now that's more like it." He cheerfully walked up to within two meters of me and stopped: "I haven't introduced myself yet; my name is Wei Haibo."
"Come on now, how could Wei Haibo possibly have your skills? You're just a demon possessing Wei Haibo's body." I tossed my gun into the Mustard Seed Pendant: "Just be straightforward; which great demon from the Dark Overlord are you?"
"Zhong Zhengnan, you really don't know how to behave. You directly exposed my identity without letting me use any of my carefully prepared lines." 'Wei Haibo' looked at me displeased: "This makes me quite frustrated, you know?"
"Your frustration has nothing to do with me!" I replied irritably.
"Is that so?" 'Wei Haibo' smiled at me while casually forming a Spell with his hand and shaking it lightly.
I thought he was about to unleash a powerful attack and quickly braced myself.
Who knew that there would be no flashes of lightning or a barrage of arrows? I thought he was just trying to scare me. Just as I was about to mock him, I noticed Fatty beside me, expressionless, pulling out a dagger, biting it with his mouth, and reaching to unbuckle his belt.
"What do you mean by this?" I thought this was bad and quickly shouted at 'Wei Haibo'.
"Because I'm feeling frustrated, so I want Fatty to perform a knife self-castration show for my amusement," 'Wei Haibo' said with a laugh.
"Damn! Did I make a mistake earlier?" I quickly apologized. If Fatty really went through with the self-castration, there would be no way to fix that. He would have no joy left in life and would blame me for it forever.
"Do you realize your mistake? So what should you do now?" 'Wei Haibo' waved his hand with a smile, and Fatty immediately stopped his actions.
"Let's start over." I helplessly feigned surprise: "What the hell! Who were you just now? You are actually Wei Haibo?"
"Tsk tsk, your acting is really terrible. Forget it; there's no sense of achievement in acting with you. To be honest, yes, I am one of the Dark Overlords, 【Havoc】!" 'Wei Haibo' declared proudly.
Havoc?
After Jin Manyuan released the Ten Dark Lords, I specifically discussed the knowledge related to these demon lords with Grandma Song. The Ten Dark Lords include the one-legged bull-shaped 【Kui】, the fish-bodied human-limbed 【Yujang】, the dragon-headed tiger-bodied 【Yali】, the dog-shaped fire-breathing 【Havoc】, the nine-headed ten-necked 【Ghost Car】, the tiger-shaped double-winged 【Qiongqi】, the human-headed snake-bodied 【Gonggong】, the red-robed bull-nosed 【Exhaustion】, the four-winged six-legged 【Chaos】, and the leopard-tailed tiger-toothed 【Queen Mother of the West】.
Hearing Havoc admit it so casually left me somewhat at a loss. What should I do next? My purpose for coming here was to eliminate this great demon lord, but right now I was no match for him at all. Forget about eliminating him; ensuring my own survival was already a challenge.
Should I try to get close to him? Wait until he lets his guard down before striking? But if I were to greet him, should I say 'Hello' or 'Sawasdee'? By the way, in legends, wasn't Havoc supposed to look like a spring... uh, wasn't he supposed to look like a dog? I suddenly chuckled: "Moshi Moshi."
Havoc looked at me disdainfully: "Damn! I'm a patriot; don't speak Japanese around me!"
I was nearly choked by his words and after a while managed to awkwardly say: "Havoc, what is all this about?"
"It's simple; everything has been planned by me personally," Havoc said proudly.
"Oh." I replied casually.
Honestly, I am tired of hearing this. One moment it's "Boss Lady," claiming everything was planned by her; the next, it's "Zhang Qixia" telling me it was all her plan. In the end, "Yang Guo" steps up and says it was all his doing.
Now another one, "Dark Demon King Huo Dou," claims that everything is his plan. Motherfucker, when will this end?
Seeing my lack of expression, "Havoc" became furious and threw a punch at me with lightning speed. I barely had time to react before his fist struck my chest.
With a loud thud, I was sent flying three or four meters through the air before crashing to the ground. My chest hurt intensely, and it took a while for me to catch my breath. Struggling to get up, I angrily asked, “What do you mean by this?”
“Yo Xue, you’re still angry? Do you have no shame? What right do you have to be angry? What can you do about it?” "Havoc" glared at me in fury.
Thinking about it, I calmed down immediately and bitterly laughed as I brushed off the dust from my clothes. “But you just hit me out of nowhere! You made me feel so empty, lonely, and cold. I have no idea what I did wrong.”
“I planned everything, and you don’t even give me a reaction?” "Havoc" shouted angrily. “If you keep being ungrateful, do you believe I’ll make them all perform self-castration in front of you?”
“Damn! So this was all your plan?” I could only pretend to be surprised.
“Yeah, it’s mediocre. Talking to someone like you is really pointless; next time be more proactive,” "Havoc" said with frustration as he waved me over. “Come here in front of me.”
I walked over and bitterly asked, “What exactly is going on?”
“It’s simple. For us demon kings to emerge from our dormant state, there’s a key condition we need to meet. I’m not sure about the conditions for other demon kings, but mine requires consuming the hearts of several Martial Arts Masters,” "Havoc" said, his expression changing rapidly from anger to a cheerful smile.
“What?” My surprise was genuine; I was truly shocked. This beast actually wants to eat human hearts, specifically those of Martial Arts Masters. Isn’t that clearly targeting me and Wen Zhan? At the same time, it dawned on me that since "Havoc" needs to consume our hearts as a key condition for emerging from his dormant state, it means he hasn’t actually emerged yet.
Damn, if he’s already this powerful without fully emerging, what would happen if he did?
“Do you have something you want to ask me?” "Havoc" looked at me with a grin.
“Why does it have to be the hearts of Martial Arts Masters? What’s the difference? Is it because they’re more resilient or chewy?” I didn’t know what else to ask and could only throw out that question.
"Chewy? Hahaha, of course not. Those who have practiced Kung Fu have something in their hearts called 'Qi Yuan.' The higher the level of Kung Fu, the purer the Qi Yuan. What I need to leave this place is pure Qi Yuan," Havoc laughed heartily.
"So what level of Martial Arts Master are you referring to?" I immediately asked. "Is it someone of Yang Guo and Dragon Girl's caliber? How many such masters do you need to meet your requirements to leave?"
"Well, about four or five hearts of Yang Guo's level would be enough," Havoc replied with a grin. "Originally, I thought that just eating the hearts of Yang Guo and Dragon Girl would suffice. That's why I was casually looking for someone to possess in General Township, planning to feast when I was ready to leave. But after practicing, I realized that after being trapped for so long, my original powers had become rusty. To leave, I need at least four masters' hearts."
"And then?" I asked, feeling frustrated.
"Then I need to attract other masters to come over. Otherwise, how can I gather four masters' hearts? Knowing that Yang Guo and Dragon Girl were searching for gold, I started planning. First, I let him inadvertently learn that the gold was at Wei Family. When he wiped out the Wei Family and left Wei Haibo alive, intending to hypnotize him to spread rumors, I possessed Wei Haibo."
"Wait, wait, how did you know the gold was at Wei Family?"
"Questions like yours are hard to answer, like a child asking a teacher why one plus one equals two. If I ask you why you instinctively suckle when you're born, how would you respond?"
"Uh, drinking milk is instinctual."
"Right, you know it's instinct! Knowing the whereabouts of gold is as easy as drinking milk; it's also a kind of instinct. Don't ask such foolish questions next time." Havoc mocked before continuing, "Next, when Yang Guo learns that the gold is at Wei Family, he will start searching there. But how could I let him find it easily? Even if he entered the cellar three times, I used spells to create illusions so he would think there was nothing inside. This way, he would consider seeking help from outsiders."
