Chapter 43

"Die!" Whether it was a matter of his state of mind, before initiating Soul Burning, Mu Feng was already in a subtle realm. After Soul Burning was activated, Mu Feng was completely in a state between half-mad and half-awake. With a nearly疯狂的执着，Mu Feng's attacks were extraordinarily fierce. With only 20,000 HP left, Mu Feng leaped high, and both the Fist of the Divine and the Blood Curse Demon Blade emitted a dazzling red light.

14087! The damage from his all-out attack was terrifying. It even triggered Instant Shadow! After 1.5 seconds, another 14087 points of damage exploded. In a state of madness, Mu Feng abandoned all positioning and dodging, confronting Memphis head-on!

"Roar!~" Memphis let out a mournful cry of unwillingness and fell to the ground.

"Phew" A black mist rose from Memphis's dead body and entered Mu Feng's body. His demon points immediately increased by 300. Apart from that, there seemed to be no other abnormalities.

"Ding!~" Two items dropped from Memphis's body.

Destruction Dagger: Level (Legendary), Attack: 98-132. +37 Agility, +40 Stamina. Speed 1.5. A dagger used by the founder of the Demon Hunter, Utherian, with special significance to him. It was lost during the final battle with Mephisto.

Spine of Mephisto: Long-handled weapon, Level (Epic). Attack +163-217, +45 Strength, +53 Stamina, 5% Critical Hit and Critical Damage!

"Is it over already?" The effect of Soul Burning disappeared, and Mu Feng, who had just escaped from the strange state, was stunned. Is it over? Or did he miss the key point? The whole thing felt strange and odd. It was as if someone had deliberately guided him to kill Mephisto just to get this dagger. But apart from its Legendary level, the Destruction Dagger was rather ordinary, even inferior to Mu Feng's Fist of the Divine. It was as if some of its attributes had been swallowed.

With many mysteries, Asar had said this was a special mission prepared for him. It seemed he would have to wait until he returned to Azshara to ask Asar. While thinking, Mu Feng activated the Hearthstone to return to the city.

In a hidden spot on the cave ceiling, a black shadow was lurking, watching everything Mu Feng did. It then disappeared mysteriously, leaving behind a faint laugh.

Looking at the time, it was already late. After returning to Azshara, Mu Feng chose to log off.

Mu Feng climbed out of the game pod after logging out. He would deal with game matters when he logged back in. Now it was time for normal life. First, he needed to make breakfast for himself and Kotori. A good start to the day is important, and filling one's stomach is a crucial matter.

Although his body was actually in a sleeping state, Mu Feng's spirit had been fighting in the game world for a long time, and he desperately needed to eat something.

Opening the fridge, Mu Feng found that the food was almost gone, enough for breakfast, but he would need to go shopping after sending Kotori to school.

"How are you feeling, Kotori? After using the game pod, you don't feel tired anymore, right?" Mu Feng saw Kotori come out of the room, clearly not as exhausted as she had been in the past few days. He felt relieved.

"Yes! I don't feel any fatigue at all, and the game world feels much more real, like I'm really living in it!" Kotori said happily. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for. The game pod provided a much better gaming experience than the helmet.

"How about your second-class promotion quest with Ye Luochengdie?" Mu Feng asked.

"Hehehe... You asked the right person. The great me has completed the second-class promotion and summoned a pretty good follower!" Kotori seemed to have been waiting for Mu Feng's question and immediately boasted.

"Really?" Mu Feng was happy for Kotori, who had summoned a powerful follower.

"But Xiao Die's quest is more complicated. The despicable guild leader keeps sending her to spy, poison, and assassinate, and even steal things! She's only halfway through..." It seemed Kotori had a deep grudge against the guild leader of the Assassin's Guild.

"The harder the quest, the better the reward. It's worth looking forward to." Mu Feng wasn't too concerned. But is it really okay to send such a young girl to poison and assassinate?

After breakfast, Mu Feng, as usual, personally sent Kotori to school. After returning home, he immediately walked to the nearby supermarket.

Since earning some money in the game, Mu Feng had moved with Kotori to a villa in the suburbs. After the tragic incident, their original home always reminded them of the happy times they used to have, which would hurt their hearts repeatedly. It was not suitable for them to live there anymore.

Moreover, the powerful werewolf or the mysterious person who revived Mu Feng might come looking for him. For Kotori's safety, Mu Feng decided to stay away from these conflicts until he had enough strength. At least until Kotori grew up.

The supermarket was not far from Mu Feng's neighborhood, or he wouldn't have walked. In fact, Mu Feng enjoyed shopping, reading product descriptions, and carefully choosing between similar items. Each time he left the supermarket, he would buy a large bag of items and store them in the fridge. This way, he would have at least a week's worth of food.

Today, Mu Feng bought a lot of things, including a large amount of pork ribs. Imagining Kotori's happy face while eating sweet and sour ribs, Mu Feng couldn't help but smile. However, as he walked through a secluded street, he heard a woman's piercing scream.

"Ah!~" It sounded as if she had seen something terrifying. The sudden scream was bone-chilling.

"Crack!~" Mu Feng's knuckles cracked as he clenched his fists. The sound and the despair it conveyed made his heart ache! Throwing the large bag aside, Mu Feng rushed toward the source of the sound at an astonishing speed.

Running like the wind, he arrived at the scene, but no one was there. However, a pool of blood and a long, red drag mark on the ground were alarming!

"I must save her!" Seeing this, Mu Feng immediately followed the blood trail, finally finding the attacked woman in a hidden alley after turning a few corners.

However... the woman's eyes were lifeless, and blood gushed from her mouth. A terrifying blood hole was visible in her chest. Mu Feng was too late!

"I hate being interrupted during my meal..." A sinister voice came from the shadows. A terrifying figure slowly emerged, holding a dripping heart in its hand!

This creature still had some human male features, with abnormally muscular arms that had torn through its clothes. Its flat face had extended into a long, sharp snout, and its pointed ears and hair looked wild and terrifying. It was a half-human, half-wolf monster!

"Werewolf... a werewolf that eats human hearts..." Seeing the scene, Mu Feng's anger had reached its peak!

"Ha!~ Ha!~ Ha!~" It was Mu Feng's heavy breathing. This werewolf reminded him of that terrifying night, and endless hatred turned his eyes blood red!

"Ah!~ Die!" Hatred completely controlled Mu Feng, and he charged forward unarmed. The hatred for his parents' death and the loss of his heart, everything... Die!

"Ha ha ha... Pathetic human, do you think you can beat me?" The werewolf laughed mockingly, showing its sharp claws and fangs.

With a whistling sound, the werewolf's claws slashed at Mu Feng. Instinctively, Mu Feng, who had been training non-stop, used the dodging techniques from the game, sidestepping all the attacks. He then blocked the werewolf's claws with his hands!

The two engaged in a strength contest, with Mu Feng gradually losing ground. The sharp claws were getting closer to his head.

"Ah!~" Seeing the claws getting closer, Mu Feng kicked the werewolf's abdomen with a lightning-fast kick.

"Bang!" Mu Feng's body, enhanced by the mysterious crystal, was incredibly strong. The kick sent the werewolf flying several meters, crashing into the wall. The impact created numerous cracks, and the werewolf's body was embedded in the wall.

"Die!~" The crystal fragments embedded in the werewolf's body, and red blood gushed from the wounds. The werewolf roared in pain and began to mutate further. The remaining human features on its face disappeared, and its body swelled, tearing the clothes apart. Gray fur covered its body, and its sharp claws grew even larger, transforming it into a complete werewolf! It resembled the werewolf in Mu Feng's memory even more!

"Roar!" The fully transformed werewolf crouched on the ground, like a giant wolf boss in the game, and its speed nearly doubled. Mu Feng saw a gray blur, and the werewolf was already in front of him, slashing with its claws. Reacting quickly, Mu Feng retreated, but still received three 10-centimeter-long wounds on his chest.

"Ha..." Covering the bleeding wounds, Mu Feng realized he had been overconfident, fighting a werewolf unarmed.

At this moment, the mysterious crystal on Mu Feng's chest glowed, and green energy flowed into his body through the tubes connected to it. The three wounds glowed green and healed rapidly.

"Right!" Seeing this miraculous scene, Mu Feng suddenly remembered the crushed toothbrush cup. He had the ability to manipulate objects from a distance!

"An ability user? You must die!" The werewolf was shocked by Mu Feng's terrifying healing ability and charged at him again as a gray blur.

"Bang!" A loud noise. The fight suddenly stopped.

The werewolf did not reach Mu Feng as expected. Its massive body stopped two meters away, as if hitting an invisible wall.

"Damn, what is this?" The werewolf retreated and charged again, but still couldn't break through Mu Feng's defense.

At this moment, Mu Feng stood with his arms outstretched and his legs in a bow stance, firmly holding back the werewolf's charge.

"Strength... it's truly an exhilarating thing!" Feeling the immense energy surging through his body, Mu Feng's confidence grew. He changed his outstretched hands into claws, and two invisible hands grabbed the werewolf.

"Ah!~ What is this? Let me go!~" The werewolf screamed in terror, but no matter how it struggled, it was futile.

"Die!~" Mu Feng shouted, using all his strength to squeeze!

"Crack!~" A bone-chilling sound of bones breaking echoed. The werewolf's body, suspended in mid-air, twisted grotesquely, and all its bones were crushed by Mu Feng. When Mu Feng released his grip, the werewolf fell to the ground, becoming a pile of meat.

"Phew... Phew..." Mu Feng, who had exerted all his strength, felt a splitting headache but was incredibly excited. He had succeeded! He had killed a werewolf! Although this one was much weaker than the one in his memory, it gave Mu Feng endless hope, proving that the path he had chosen was viable. As long as he became stronger, he could take revenge!

"Here..." At this moment, voices came from outside, and someone seemed to be approaching quickly.

"No, I can't be discovered!" Mu Feng immediately leaped over the wall and fled. No matter who came, he didn't want to expose himself and cause unnecessary trouble.

"Huh? How did this werewolf die?" Mu Feng hadn't run far when he heard a surprised voice.

"It seems another ability user got here before us." Another, more steady voice said.

"An unregistered ability user. We need to report this. And we need to notify the security department to clean up. This is troublesome..."

"Ability users? Is this the force that saved me?" Mu Feng thought, quickly leaving the scene. Back on the street, the things he had dropped were still there. Picking up the bag and straightening his clothes, Mu Feng walked away as if nothing had happened.
