Chapter 3889 The Birth of a Black Soul Even More Terrible Than the Taiyin Prince...
003...Beautiful Country.
A villa in a wealthy neighborhood in Florida.
"...Recently, several murders of wealthy individuals have occurred, and the police are expediting the investigation. It is understood that this case may be transferred to the new Skyward E.L.D...."
A news report was being broadcast on the huge projection TV... The sound was loud, but the background noise of the news could not drown out the screams coming from inside the villa.
At the dining table, Vongola VIII was slowly wiping his hands—another fruitful day.
But he wasn't in a good mood because he recognized several of the wealthy people who had died mysteriously in the news reports; they seemed to have seen them on the Z-coin account list before.
"A coincidence..."
It's gone...
This was like a dangerous signal, which fully aroused Vongola VIII's instincts—as one of the many families of the Black Hand, Vongola VIII has always had an extremely strong sense of danger in order to survive until now.
"Boss, it's all taken care of. Two adults and three kids." The black-skinned subordinate returned with a menacing look on his face.
After taking the [Extraordinary Stamina] potion, Blackie's physique visibly became much stronger, as if he could shatter granite with a single punch.
"Boss, where's the next one?" another white man asked with great interest—he had just felt wonderful when he snapped the homeowner's daughter's neck.
This feeling of complete control!
“We will be taking a break from hunting for a while,” Vongola VIII said in a deep voice. “Hunting too frequently will easily arouse suspicion. I will transfer five million dollars to each of your accounts… Consider it a vacation and enjoy your holiday.”
Black and White's two subordinates exchanged a glance, then simultaneously shrugged. "Yes, sir!"
Vongola VIII won't do it... but they will!
White and Black had already secretly obtained some of the list information that Vongola VIII had in his hands—they could easily go out and hunt some less important targets on their own.
Relying on Vong VIII to provide you with all sorts of extraordinary, non-human items is nothing compared to the satisfaction of directly purchasing them yourself using your own Z-coin.
"How should we handle this?" Bai Pi suddenly asked.
Vongola VIII's unease grew stronger, and without thinking, he said, "The old rule, burn it all."
In the United States, arson is all too common. Flames can burn away most traces—efficient, brutal…simple!
Black and White quickly poured gasoline on the villa. Vongola VIII stood outside the front gate, somewhat irritated, lit a cigarette, and urged, "Hurry up, we should leave."
Suddenly, a gray light flashed by... This was not difficult to spot in the darkness.
Vongola VIII stared intently, only to see his two subordinates begin to petrify from their legs in a bizarre manner—the petrification was instantaneous, and in the blink of an eye, Black and White Skin had been completely turned into statues!
Vongola VIII's hand trembled, and his heart rate instantly surged to 190... He suddenly jolted awake, ignoring his two petrified subordinates, and turned to flee the place.
The car is parked outside!
But leaning against the hood of the car was a young man wearing a thick gold chain and with a menacing look on his face!
—We've been discovered!
Vongola VIII gasped. He recognized the young man; he was John's friend... and seemed to be the same type of person as John!
Slightly flustered, Vongola VIII forced himself to calm down and gave a humble smile. "Mr. Kintoki, what brings you here?"
The young man... Kintoki tilted his head: "You know my name?"
“Mr. John once mentioned your name to me.” Vong VIII said with his head bowed, “He said that I should treat you with the same respect I would show him, and I always keep that in mind.”
"Is that so?" Kintoki yawned. "Since you respect me so much, then just commit suicide. It'll save me the trouble of doing it myself."
“…Mr. Kintoki, are you joking?” Vongola VIII took a deep breath. “I…I don’t know where I offended you. I can apologize.”
"Not going to commit suicide?" Jin Shi sneered. "Then I'll do it."
Bang-!
Then Vongola VIII pulled a pistol out of his trench coat and fired at Kintoki without saying a word—the bullet pierced Kintoki’s forehead, and the huge impact even made his head tilt back severely!
Vongola VIII was overjoyed... The [Spirit Pistol] on the website's redemption list was indeed the right choice; it could easily kill anyone below LV4!
"I've given so much, all I'm getting back is what I deserve, why are you forcing me..." Vong VIII muttered to himself, "John, you actually sent someone to deal with me... don't blame me later."
But Vongola VIII quickly frowned – because Kintoki, after being shot, did not fall down; he remained leaning forward, maintaining the posture of his neck tilted back.
Vong VIII felt a sudden tightness in his chest.
Then Jin Shi suddenly moved, twisting his neck from side to side, "That feels good... I had a stiff neck this morning."
"You... how come you're alright..." Vongola VIII was completely stunned by what he saw. What happened to the promise of easily killing Level 4s?
What LV is the other person?!
"Although you cured my stiff neck," the spirit bullet slowly fell out from between Kintoki's eyebrows, "you're quite brave, actually daring to shoot me... Are you ready to die, you traitor who stole from your own post."
"Go to hell!"
Vongola VIII instantly emptied the ammunition of the Spirit Pistol at Kintoki.
The frenzied bullets only stopped a foot away from Kintoki, who then casually grabbed the front of the car, ripped off the hood, and walked step by step toward Vongola VIII!
escape--!
Vongola VIII no longer had the courage to resist. He turned around and ran for his life—at the same time, he quickly took out his phone. He had kept the exchange list on the [Z-coin] website open, just in case of an emergency!
Looking at the Z-coins he had plundered over this period in his account, Vongola VIII felt no satisfaction whatsoever; he simply wanted to find an item that could help him escape death.
"Have it!"
Just then, a bolded item appeared on the exchange list!
——Special Exchange Item (Unique)
——【Origin of the Other】0.1g
—Effects: Immortality, eternal life...
Vongola VIII had no time to think about what kind of thing could grant immortality with just 0.1 grams—his mind was completely consumed by the effects of the [Otherworldly Source]!
Immortality, eternal life...
The Z-coins he amassed in his account were just enough to exchange for 0.1 grams of the Otherworldly Source... He could handle this crisis and evade Kintoki's pursuit!
There is always a way out!
Overjoyed, Vongola VIII, under the threat of death, instantly issued the exchange order—in an instant, a bottle no bigger than a thumb appeared in Vongola VIII's palm.
Inside the bottle, there was a small black particle that looked like dust, yet it emitted an eerie light!
"do not come!"
Vongola VIII abruptly stopped, looking at Kintoki, who was dragging the hood of his car and walking slowly behind him—he was certain that the other man could have easily killed him before, but was just enjoying this cat-and-mouse game.
"You can't kill me!" Vongola VIII suddenly gripped the bottle in his hand. "I'll soon be immortal! Hahaha!!!"
"Huh?" Kintoki's lips twitched slightly, and he looked at Vongola VIII's actions with a strange expression.
Vongola VIII shoved the bottle containing the [Otherworldly Source] into his mouth and bit it to pieces. The sharp glass instantly pierced his oral cavity!
But the stinging sensation was instantly suppressed by the surge of adrenaline... With 0.1 grams of the [Otherworld Source] entering his body, Vongola VIII instantly experienced a feeling of his soul being extracted and then forcibly reinstalled.
"Is this what immortality feels like... I feel it..." Vongola VIII laughed maniacally, as if every cell in his body had been forcibly torn apart in an instant!
A wisp of light gray mist instantly enveloped Vongola VIII's body.
Jin Shi just stared at this guy's actions with dead fish eyes... He really couldn't make a move.
"Die!"
Suddenly, Vongola VIII transformed into a gray mist and swept towards Kintoki—at this moment, he felt stronger than ever before. The effect of 0.1 grams of [Otherworld Source] felt more powerful than dozens... or even hundreds of [Extraordinary Stamina]!
Snapped--!
Kintoki casually swung the hood in his hand and slapped the Vongola VIII (just kidding) away!
Vongola VIII snapped out of his misty state and crashed heavily to the ground, his body feeling as if it had been torn apart... He felt like he was dead, yet also like he wasn't.
"How could..."
"Idiot." Kintoki walked over, squatted down in front of Vongola VIII, and reached out to grab the other's head. "Some people don't want to do it, but insist on doing something like Dark Souls... and the most pathetic cannon fodder at that? No, even among cannon fodder, you're the worst, 0.1 grams? Are you trying to make me laugh to death?"
"Didn't we agree... that we would be immortal?"
"0.1 grams, and you think you can be immortal?" Kintoki sneered. "You're a naive fellow, aren't you?"
Vongola VIII instantly realized that the [Origin of Another Body] might indeed grant immortality, but the required quantity was clearly enormous... The information on the exchange list was obviously incomplete!
"I...I'm not reconciled..." Vongola VIII's face was ashen, but he had already realized that the special item that had suddenly appeared on the exchange list was clearly a trap. "Don't kill me...I know I was wrong...I will atone for my sins...I will never do it again..."
Was it John pulling the strings behind the scenes? Or was it this Mr. Kintoki standing right in front of us?
"Kill you?" Kintoki disdainfully shook off Vongola VIII. "Something like you doesn't even deserve to be devoured by me. But since you've already been transformed into cannon fodder, you won't die for now. From now on, you'll obediently be a slave."
Jin Shi shook his head. This cannon fodder didn't even qualify to be placed in the Ark of the Covenant. If it died, it was just a waste of resources... He could easily create hundreds or thousands of Black Souls of his level, but he only had to extract a tiny bit of the Source of Otherworldly Beings from his own body.
“Slave…” Vongola VIII seemed to have all his strength drained away, and collapsed to the ground in a daze.
At this moment, Kintoki pulled out the crumpled list and used his little fingernail to scratch a line directly on the name of [Vongola VIII]... So he's done with one, right?
But John, if you're going to turn this guy into cannon fodder, why do you make me do the chopping...? Isn't that ridiculous?!
—Damn John!
—You're using me again!
"Kid, let's go!"
Gintoki, cursing and swearing, abandoned the dejected Vongola VIII and left.
……
As if something was calling him from the depths of his being, Vongola VIII felt himself become very light, drifting swiftly under the night sky with the wind... During this process, his mind was completely in a state of chaos, and he couldn't even feel the passage of time.
When he regained consciousness, he found himself in a room decorated in a Gothic style—with a messy desk in front of him.
John, meanwhile, had his legs propped up on the table, fiddling with a golden lighter, and was observing Vongola VIII with great interest.
Good evening, Vongola VIII.
“Mr. John…” Vongola VIII trembled and knelt on the ground in fear. “Please don’t kill me. I know I was wrong. From now on, I will never dare to do it again… I swear!”
“Oaths are dirtier than excrement,” John chuckled. “But don’t worry, why would I kill you?”
"Really?" Vongola VIII was instantly delighted.
“After all, you are the child of the Seventh King.” John’s smile became even more benevolent. “I have always been very satisfied with the Seventh King’s loyalty. As his child, of course I will take good care of you.”
"Thank you, Mr. John..."
……
The office door was suddenly pushed open, and Roseweather and Tina strode in at the same time—Tina was even holding a mop in her hand!
“John, I think I heard screams. Has a thief broken in? Or is that villain from last time back?” Taina said directly, “I smell something similar!”
"Huh? I was just watching a movie."
The light from the laptop screen, which was shining on John's face, flickered as he worked.
"Watch a movie?" The girl was taken aback for a moment.
Roseweather's gaze sharpened slightly. Although the volume was low, she could still hear it clearly... It was a voice that was not unfamiliar to her, a voice that often appeared at the banquets of the gods in the past.
Watching movies...
"Damn it!" Roseweather cursed under her breath, her face darkening as she left—she remembered John's earlier statement about "disciplining" her!
"What's wrong with Roseweather?" The young girl, Taina, scratched her head in confusion.
John shrugged and closed his laptop without saying a word: "Maybe he's heartbroken?"
"Huh? Roseweather has... has a boyfriend?" Tina's curiosity was immediately ignited.
John grabbed a crumpled piece of paper from the table and threw it at the girl's forehead. "Why are you asking such a question, little kid? Go to sleep."
"Mind your own business!" Taina scoffed, but her gaze suddenly fell on a glass jar under the table. The jar seemed to contain something. "What's this... a rat? How come there's a rat here?"
The gray-black fur is the kind of rat most commonly found in sewers.
John chuckled. "Yes, this is the mouse that stole the cheese... Little Tina, you're right, it really didn't die from overeating, and it even came here to me."
"It's so stupid!" Tina exclaimed instinctively, "It even walked right into a trap!"
John looked at the girl in front of him with a smile. "That's right."
