The sudden turn of events instantly put the few people in the interrogation room on high alert.
Everyone stared at the eye and mouth on the side of Ma Gu's face.
At this moment, Ma Gu's main face was somewhat distorted.
Veins bulged on his forehead.
The half of his face that suddenly had a mouth and an eye was crisscrossed with bulging veins, looking extremely terrifying.
Ma Gu's lips were parted, but his teeth were clenched, as if he wanted to speak, but couldn't, having completely lost control over his own body.
The eye on the side of his face had a very sinister look.
Just one glance at someone gave them a chilling sensation; the gaze in that eye contained no humanity.
It was filled with contempt for everyone, as if it were an executioner looking at lambs awaiting slaughter.
Everyone present, except Bai Mao Zai, stood up, startled by this sudden change.
The sound of Bai Mao Zai slurping noodles came from the interrogation room.
Bai Mao Zai, like riding a wooden horse, moved his chair closer to Ma Gu.
When the distance between them was less than twenty centimeters.
Bai Mao Zai lifted his sunglasses with a finger, and his dazzling white eyes behind the sunglasses stared at the single eye and mouth on the side of Ma Gu's face.
That sinister single eye also stared at Bai Mao Zai.
Three eyes met.
A few seconds later, the single eye on the side of Ma Gu's face suddenly widened a bit, and the mouth held its breath, seemingly observing Bai Mao Zai intently.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and finally, the mouth on the side of Ma Gu's face spoke.
"You resemble an old acquaintance!"
Bai Mao Zai put down his sunglasses, slurped another mouthful of noodles, and grinned at the other party with his small white teeth, saying, "It seems that as you fellows iterate and update, your memories also get forgotten quite a bit over time."
That sinister single eye stared at Bai Mao Zai, "No, it has not been forgotten. It's just that Mother Goddess has specially processed your information. Our memory of you is very limited, but..."
As it spoke, the single eye widened a bit, and the mouth beneath the single eye also opened wide, so much so that half of Ma Gu's face looked like a gaping maw full of fangs.
"But, I think I should congratulate you. You are on the kill list personally drawn up by the great Mother Goddess! When Eternal Night Descends, you will be among the first to be devoured by the Eternal Night!"
Bai Mao Zai turned his head, pointed his thumb at himself, and said to Fang Xin and the others, "How about it, am I awesome or what? I'm even on the first kill list of these bastards!"
The mouth let out a cold sneer, "Friend, I suggest you maintain sufficient reverence for the great Mother Goddess! Otherwise, you will be devoured by the Eternal Night, leaving no bones behind! But! If you are willing to serve the great Mother Goddess! Become a loyal slave of the great Mother Goddess, the great Mother Goddess will spare your life and even make you the Grand Eunuch in charge of the Imperial Guards under Mother Goddess!"
Bai Mao Zai gulped down his soup, let out a satisfied sigh, and plunged one hand into the void. A few seconds later, when he pulled it back, he was holding tissues and a water cup. He took a sip of water, wiped his mouth, and asked, "Grand Eunuch? Does that mean getting my balls cut off?"
The sinister single eye on the side of Ma Gu's face stared at Bai Mao Zai and chuckled, "Friend, to be favored by the great Mother Goddess, this is a virtue accumulated by your ancestors. Even if you are castrated, it is still the highest honor!"
Bai Mao Zai raised an eyebrow at this, "What kind of international joke is that! I'm reluctant to even donate sperm, and you want to just cut me off? You're living in a dream! Grand Eunuch is out of the question, but I could be something else.
Oh? Is your Mother Goddess single? What's her zodiac sign? What kind of man does she like? Since she's called Mother Goddess, she should be a woman, right? Can you ask your Mother Goddess if someone like me would do? I'm not picky; I can be a live-in son-in-law! How's the angle of my little crooked mouth?"
The single eye narrowed slightly, the sinister killing intent in its gaze almost bursting from its socket.
"Hmph! Blaspheming the great Mother Goddess! You will face the judgment of the gods!"
Bai Mao Zai shrugged nonchalantly, "Nobody cares!"
As he spoke, Bai Mao Zai suddenly bared his small white teeth and smiled.
The single eye and mouth on Ma Gu's half-face instantly froze, and the veins on Ma Gu's half-face spread across his entire head.
But the next second, accompanied by a wail.
The skin and flesh of half of Ma Gu's face, along with his scalp, peeled off, looking extremely horrifying.
The detached skin fell to the ground with a splat.
Bai Mao Zai picked it up with his chopsticks.
Numerous tendrils immediately sprouted from the skin, wrapping around and clinging to Bai Mao Zai's arm.
Boom!
Bai Mao Zai's arm was covered in tears of light.
A burnt smell wafted through the entire interrogation room.
The tendrils extending from the skin were charred black and curled.
A shrill, deranged roar came from the mouth on the skin, "Bai Mao Zai! I will curse you in the name of Eternal Night, I am willing to sacrifice my life to condemn you to eternal damnation!"
Bai Mao Zai suddenly showed a mischievous smile, turned and walked towards the restroom next to the interrogation room, and directly unzipped his pants.
He opened the floodgates.
The mouth on the skin roared in anger.
"Bai Mao Zai scum! How dare you! Get away from me! Take your little thing away! Get lost! Get lost! Ah! Stop it! Stop it! Ah ah ah, Bai Mao Zai scum! I swear I will kill you! I swear I will kill you!!!"
Bai Mao Zai pulled up his pants, a mischievous smile on his face.
He bent down to look at the skin; white smoke was rising from it, the single eye was closed, the mouth was also shut, and the skin was wrinkled and curled, like dried fish skin.
Bai Mao Zai snapped his fingers, and the skin instantly turned to dust.
Only then did he whistle and walk back into the interrogation room.
Tai Shi Bo was silent for a long while before saying, "Why did you destroy it?"
Bai Mao Zai shrugged, "Someone caught something similar before. This thing can't tell us anything, and it will activate a self-destruct sequence at a critical moment. Even if I didn't do this, it would self-destruct anyway! Rather than watching it self-destruct, it's better to make it suffer while it self-destructs!"
As he spoke, Bai Mao Zai sat back down, his eyes behind his sunglasses looking at Ma Gu.
At this moment, Ma Gu only had half a face left. From one side, one could see stark white bone, and besides that, teeth and a tongue. With the destruction of that thing by Bai Mao Zai, Ma Gu's mind had returned to clarity.
Fang Xin inquired, "Was that the virus just now?"
"Yes!"
Fang Xin seemed to have thought of something; there was still Ji Yuan in the Asura Tower, so Fang Xin had to be extra vigilant, "Do all these people have this virus?"
"That's not certain."
"Then how can we detect this virus?"
Bai Mao Zai thought for a moment, "Either this thing appears automatically, or, you soak the suspected person in highly concentrated saltwater, and it will come out on its own after a while!"
"How do you know so much?"
Bai Mao Zai sat backward on his chair, "I'm the Deputy Director of the Ninth Division, isn't it normal for me to know more than a novice like you?"
Fang Xin secretly made up his mind that he would find time to soak Ji Yuan in highly concentrated saltwater to check.
The focus returned to Ma Gu.
Bai Mao Zai asked what Fang Xin also wanted to know, "How did you communicate with that thing just now?"
