Chapter 209 Bizarre Response Techniques
```
Three consecutive tasks appeared, shaking Yan Junze to the core. The moment he was checking these tasks, the Peephole Strange Creature from behind had moved along the wall and positioned itself right next to him.
Yan Junze had not anticipated that the creature would crawl out of the crack in the door. It was the first time this had happened, so without any guard up, a palm landed on his shoulder.
This jerked him harshly back to reality from the shock of the three tasks.
Turning his head, he saw that the Peephole Strange Creature had already gotten extremely close. He immediately prepared to use his Rewind Skill.
However, by the time the creature's hand was on his shoulder, his head was spinning, the scene before his eyes shifted, and Yan Junze found himself no longer in the equipment room but at the entrance to the laboratory outside.
The Peephole Strange Creature still had its hand on his shoulder, and at this moment, the door to the laboratory was open with a mop wedged against it, preventing it from closing.
As soon as he arrived at this place, the hand on his shoulder had merged into his body, and it seemed that the Peephole Strange Creature was preparing to enter Yan Junze's body and then strut out of the laboratory boldly.
For who knows how long, he had been anticipating this moment's arrival.
Never had he been so close to a person to such an extent. Continue reading on My Virtual Library Empire
At this time, the Semi-spirit within Yan Junze once again showed signs of being aroused, but he likewise did not plan to use it and instead prepared to Rewind to a point directly before this scene occurred.
Just then, the laboratory door that was slightly open moved a bit, and the woman's corpse hidden behind the door extended her dry arm, grabbing the Peephole Strange Creature that was trying to merge into Yan Junze.
The Peephole Strange Creature, just like Yan Junze who was completely captivated by the three tasks moments ago, was utterly unprepared for the appearance of another strange creature attacking it in a deadly manner.
Then, Shen Wanqiu viciously grabbed its head; her fingers sank deep into the skull, gripping it firmly.
Of course, as a strange creature, it was impossible for it to be restrained by this action.
The Peephole Strange Creature immediately ceased its invasion of Yan Junze, pressing tightly against the door panel, and in the next second vanished eerily.
Shen Wanqiu, who was grabbing its head, also disappeared quickly.
The space behind Yan Junze was suddenly empty, and he no longer considered using Rewind but immediately turned around.
He saw nothing.
However, soon after, noises came from the equipment room, but only the intense sounds of collision, no other shouts.
Because of the Rewind Skill, Yan Junze was emboldened and did not hesitate to turn back towards the entrance of the equipment room and look inside.
He saw Shen Wanqiu's right hand still inserted into the Peephole Strange Creature's head. At this time, because the Peephole Strange Creature was preempted, it simply kept trying to dodge away.
It glued itself to the side of the fifth display cabinet, and in the blink of an eye, it seemed to have broken through this spatial constraint, appearing behind the first display cabinet. However, Shen Wanqiu could still follow and disappear with it, appearing simultaneously.
Seeing this scene, Yan Junze was momentarily stunned but then quickly realized.
If it were under normal circumstances, the Peephole Strange Creature would have long escaped because it was a true strange creature, not like Shen Wanqiu who was a type of zombie.
But precisely because Shen Wanqiu was not a pure zombie but a Corpse Spirit that had consumed a strange creature.
Now it seems that this kind of Corpse Spirit, being between semi-spirit and zombie, possesses both abilities, which makes their strength terrifying.
This was why the Peephole Strange Creature could escape quickly, and Shen Wanqiu could equally follow suit.
As for the fingers still embedded in the Peephole Strange Creature's head, it was for this reason that the Peephole Strange Creature could not break free and escape.
This Peephole Strange Creature seemed unable to speak, and upon realizing it couldn't get away, it stopped facing the wall and turned around, revealing a face as if chiseled by a knife.
This face didn't look natural but strangely parallel, and looked very eerie.
The Peephole Strange Creature stretched out its two hands and grabbed Shen Wanqiu in return. Visibly, Shen Wanqiu's body seemed to be torn apart as it suddenly split to the sides.
From this, it was evident that the Peephole Strange Creature was also powerful, but its method of attack was unpredictable.
Just then, within the split body of Shen Wanqiu, a long-haired head suddenly appeared.
This head had a face completely different from Shen Wanqiu's, and the moment it appeared, it immediately bit at the Peephole Strange Creature.
The supernatural field around the Peephole Strange Creature immediately trembled, falling into an unstable state.
```
Click!
Half of his head was bitten off.
Yet, this scene made Yan Junze suddenly freeze.
A head emerging from the chest!?
When Lv Xin was split by the Resentful Granny and hid at the stairwell to ambush him, he looked exactly like this.
Could it be that Lv Xin is related to this guy named Cheng Jingting? Or is this a unique method of nurturing spirits by Spirit Cultivators?
Click, another bite.
Now, the Peephole Strange Creature had only a small part of its head left, and it immediately turned around, ready to escape again through the display cabinet behind it.
However, the strangeness magnetic field was trembling violently, with ripples vibrating, and a mist followed, making it impossible for him to move anymore.
The woman's head in front of Shen Wanqiu took another bite.
Looking at the current situation, it seemed that the Peephole Strange Creature was doomed.
It wanted to resurrect through a human body but ended up like this, the poor creature really hit rock bottom.
But Yan Junze suddenly woke up, thinking that if this guy perished, the "Peephole" task wouldn't be completed at all!
This was a "Trembling with Fear (High)" task with an 800-point Different Dimension Energy reward, was it just going to slip away right before his eyes?
And again, as soon as the Peephole Strange Creature was done for, Shen Wanqiu's next target would immediately be him.
Shortly after his thought, the body of the Peephole Strange Creature suddenly became fragmented, as if a pile of well-placed blocks collapsed at that moment.
The strange creature inside Shen Wanqiu had consumed nearly half of the Peephole Strange Creature, which meant that the Corpse Spirits had once again devoured another strange creature at this moment.
Although it hadn't consumed it entirely, having the power of two strangenesses inside her body, Yan Junze didn't doubt that Shen Wanqiu's strength was probably even stronger than before.
There were three tasks related to Shen Wanqiu, namely finding the child, killing herself, and revenge.
Up until now, Yan Junze had no clue on how to complete these tasks.
If it really wouldn't work out, after the Peephole Strange Creature was devoured by Shen Wanqiu, he would have to choose to leave here first and see if he could complete these tasks when the timing was better.
At least dealing with Cheng Jingting was certain, and incidentally completing these tasks seemed like the best choice.
Unfortunately, with the demise of the Peephole Strange Creature, the 800 points of Dimensional Energy he could have gained were also going down the drain.
Having made up his mind, he turned around, preparing to leave.
However, all of a sudden, he froze, struck by a eureka moment, and walked back to look at Shen Wanqiu, who had now triumphed in the equipment room.
He simply found a chair outside the lab to sit on and then opened the video on his phone.
At this moment, Shen Wanqiu turned her head, her rotten face facing Yan Junze at the door, and then she started moving her legs, walking towards him in a crooked manner.
"Let's give it a try, maybe it'll work?" Yan Junze muttered to himself while sitting on the chair.
After all, if this idea proved unworkable, he could still Rewind to the moment when Shen Wanqiu and the Peephole Strange Creature were fighting each other and leave calmly.
As Shen Wanqiu drew closer, Yan Junze opened one of the videos stored on his phone.
He had deleted this video from the computer when he edited it, but since it involved his first transformation into a Semi-spirit, it had some sentimental value.
What can you do, when Yan Junze is someone who likes to reminisce about the past?
Thus, he kept a copy on his phone.
After opening the video, he pointed the phone's screen towards Shen Wanqiu who was approaching. The video showed a blue-skinned child being brutally beaten by someone covered in black hair (actually Yan Junze in his Semi-Spirit State).
"Here, this... is your child," said Yan Junze, and then he shrugged, "Though he might, should, could, probably... have been turned into this by the livestreamer who murdered you."
