" Next up is a piece of news. The Mercury Building is probably a predator's doing."
"Bada." Turning off the TV, Zhang Yi stretched and stood up from the luxurious sofa. This was a five-star presidential suite hotel. The news just now was about the ghoul crime in District 20. It had hunted dozens of people at once. With the ghoul's appetite, it would usually be able to last for about one to two months without eating after eating a full meal. However, this one was a little different. According to the plot in the manga, This was a style that only the ghouls of the God's Era, known as the Gluttony Maniac, had.
However, Zhang Yi did not consider this glutton as a target. Although the other party rarely appeared, his strength could not be underestimated. Moreover, according to the plot, this guy did not have long to live. Zhang Yi did not want to waste any more effort on him. Instead of finding these powerful ghouls, it was better to pick some weak persimmons. After all, there were strong and weak ghouls. Many ghouls were not even as strong as ordinary people. Therefore, for Zhang Yi, The first mission was easy to complete, but the second mission was quite troublesome. Destroying a ghoul's stronghold undoubtedly contained a high risk, and there was definitely no lack of powerful existences among them.
Zhang Yi pulled up his cape and put it on. He walked out of the room and took the elevator down the floor. After leaving the hotel, he got into his newly bought Yamaha motorbike and drove towards the Mercury Building. Although the deadline was half a year, the sooner he completed the mission, the better the reward. Instead of completing the mission in other areas that he did not know much about, he might as well head to District 20. This was where the main character was located. Most importantly, it was a Anding District that was rare for ghouls. The number of ghouls among them was definitely not small. Of course, the main reason was that unless the other party exposed his eye or his unique weapon, Zhang Yi did not have the ability to correctly distinguish the difference between ghouls and humans.
Not long after, they arrived at District 20. Zhang Yi looked at the iconic building, Mercury Building, which had been sealed off from afar. Then, he looked at the endless stream of people around him. They were clearly constantly threatened by the ghouls, but their emotions did not seem to be affected. Moreover, not many people were interested in the news. After all, it was not something that happened around them. Everyone had a fluke mentality.
"Hey, handsome, do you want to play with us?”
A soft female voice sounded from behind Zhang Yi. He turned around and saw two girls who looked to be around 17 or 18 years old. They were wearing student uniforms and had pretty and cute faces. Looking at these two girls, Zhang Yi's first impression was that he had met a partner. It would be a lie if he said he didn't want to play with them. Unfortunately, Zhang Yi didn't have enough time to complete his mission. He didn't have that much free time to play with them. However, he could consider it when he went back to rest.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Yi smiled kindly and said,"I'm sorry, beauties. I'm not free at the moment. Perhaps I can accompany you tonight.”
"Really? Handsome, let's exchange phone numbers. Don't go back on your word!”Seeing this, the girl with long hair tied in a ponytail quickly took out a pink phone from her small bag and said. Compared to the lively female voice with long black hair, the other girl with shoulder-length yellow hair behind her seemed a little shy. She wanted to look but did not dare to. She secretly sized up Zhang Yi.
Soon, he exchanged phone numbers with the two girls and said goodbye. Zhang Yi drove the motorcycle away from the street, then found a more remote and dark alley and drove in. This kind of place was relatively deserted, and the most important thing was that it was a good place to commit crimes. The probability of encountering ghouls was much higher, which was much better than searching aimlessly in the crowd.
"Rina, are you really going to do this? Dong Xiang will probably be very angry." Seeing the long-haired woman save Zhang Yi's number and name, the yellow-haired girl behind her said worriedly.
"Don't worry, Yi Zi, this is a rare handsome guy. If Dong Xiang doesn't know what's good for her, then I can only reluctantly accept him!”Licking her lips, the long-haired girl called Rina giggled.
"Ha…" Yoriko looked at her best friend who was a little out of line with a face full of black lines. She had a helpless expression on her face. However, when she thought of the boy just now, Yoriko could not help but feel her heart beat faster. That unique temperament, flashy clothes, and sunny smile looked especially attractive.
"It hasn't solidified yet. It looks like it just finished eating not long ago.”Looking at the blood that had not yet coagulated under his feet, Zhang Yi pulled out the key of the motorcycle and began to walk forward. The road inside was too narrow for the motorcycle to travel.
However, the smell of blood here was quite strong. Although Zhang Yi's senses might not be comparable to that of ghouls, they were much stronger than that of ordinary people. Some subtle movements and the smell of blood could not escape Zhang Yi's perception. Walking in the increasingly dark and cold alley, Zhang Yi knew that he had probably entered a ghoul's hunting ground. While secretly raising his vigilance, the two steel daggers in his sleeve were always ready to be used.
"Eh?" Zhang Yi stopped and listened to the faint sound coming from the alley on the left. He frowned and quietly came to the entrance of the alley. He looked inside and saw a corpse lying quietly in the shadows. There was a man dressed like a homeless man with a lot of blood on his body. He was holding something and burying his head in the food.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhang Yi felt that it was a little familiar. At this moment, a series of knocking sounds suddenly came from the other end of the alley. Then, a figure rushed out and saw the scene in front of him. The joy and desire on his face were immediately replaced by disappointment. His face was filled with tears as he sat on the ground in a daze.
“喰... The seed... Isn't that right? What's wrong? Are you alright? My name is Kazuo. Because I haven't eaten for a long time, I can't give you too much…" He tore off a large piece of internal organs and handed it over.
Seeing this, Zhang Yi immediately remembered why the scene in front of him was so familiar. Zhang Yi also recognized the young man who was sitting on the ground in a daze. It was the protagonist, Jin Muyan, who was originally a human but later became a descendant after transplanting human organs.
Right at this moment, a strong gust of wind suddenly came from behind Zhang Yi. With his Heart's Eye ability and his intuition, Zhang Yi felt the danger and lowered his body subconsciously. A whistling sound came from above his head, followed by a loud bang. A large part of the wall was smashed by this blow. It was obvious how strong the force was. Even with Zhang Yi's current strength, he would be heavily injured if he was hit.
Zhang Yi quickly flipped backwards to increase the distance between them. He then raised his head to look at the person who had attacked him. It was a tall and thin young man with short orange hair and a pair of glasses. He looked rather cold and handsome, and he was looking at Zhang Yi coldly.
" Human!?" Seeing that his attack had missed, the young man's eyes flashed with a trace of surprise. However, he still did not take Zhang Yi seriously. Instead, he focused his attention on the other two ghouls in the alley. Ever since the death of Shinshiro Rishi, this place had been designated as his hunting ground. Now that there were other ghouls eating here, it was undoubtedly a provocation to him, which made him especially angry.
