Eugene has his hand behind his back. He turned a deaf ear toward Lucian\'s shout. His face doesn\'t contain emotions, and it was indifferent as it could be. \'Should I help them? Nah... It\'s not my responsibility. Weakness is a sin.\'

He doesn\'t really care about the well-being of other people. In the first place, they are just strangers to him. In this world, he didn\'t experience love or attachment. He was an orphan. He only felt that coldness of the world and stood up for himself.

Eugene grew up and only depended on his ability. He struggled hard and experienced the beating and cruelty of society. He met people that pushed him to the extremes and experienced the up and downs of life alone. That\'s why for him, he only needs to care about himself!

\'Don\'t blame me for not helping. Blame yourselves for being weak! In this world, you have to make your own food! Being dependent on others only creates weakness. And any form of weakness disgusts me!\'

Eugene thought coldly in his heart. Unmoved at what was about to happen. Though he looked at Lucian with a different gaze.\' Well, this Lucian wasn\'t that bad. He was good with his words and he was quite clever. Hmmm... It is worth saving.\'

Suddenly, the monster dashed towards the exhausted degu users. Although it wasn\'t as fast as before, it still produced afterimages in its wake.

Seeing that there\'s no response. Lucian knew that Eugene won\'t show himself even if his voice broke. He glanced at the degu users around him. The mood was currently at the lowest of the lowest. Almost everyone was looking at the monster with despair.

"We\'re dead."

"Damn it! We obviously did all we can. But this monster was just too resilient."

"It seems I won\'t see my husband again. Dear god, please let me marry a prince in my next life."

The degu users weren\'t as desperate as the civilians. Because most of the normal people already cried, some had a gloomy look, and some already pissed their pants.

Most degu users had a strong psychological quality as they were already prepared to die when they chose their paths. They walk on the thin line between insanity and death. A degu user isn\'t simply about power. They were a bunch of wretched that fought at the forefront of the madness in the world.

Lucian had only respected in his heart, as he witnessed how the degu users became calm in an instant. Then they faced the monster in front of them calmly. They had already accepted their death at this moment.

The old man looked at everyone and smiled. "This is the final moment. I\'m glad that I met all of you here right now. And I fucking hope that Eugene would rot in the underworld when he dies."

"Yeah! That bastard really let us die. What a prick! Doesn\'t he have a conscience?" A man in orange clothes sighed.

Lucian felt a hint of regret. He wished that he should\'ve just stayed in his house. If he could come back in time, he already did so. Now, he knew that if degu users can\'t do anything for the monster. What would a regular human like him do?

The monster appeared in front of the old man and clawed his head with his sharp claws. The old man didn\'t even flinch before he died. And just faced death without batting an eye.

Blood spurt like a fountain, but tentacles shout out on the monster\'s body and penetrated the old man\'s chest. Then the corpse became shriveled in a second and lost its luster.

Brick Norty smirked as he felt his degu energy replenished to thirty percent in an instant. And a large part of the vitality strengthened his body again and boosted his progress in promotion slightly.

The civilians who witnessed the brutal scene closed their eyes. One of the women bit her nails and her knees trembled from fear. While a man beside him kept muttering incomprehensible words. Then he looked at the ground dazedly and suddenly kneeled on the ground and banged his head on the floor three times until his skull cracked open and his brain matter turned into mush.

"AHHH!!"

Blood dyed the ground. The woman screamed in fright, her eyes rolled backward, and she fell to the ground unconscious.

The civilians look at this scene with mixed emotions. Some of them understood why the man did it.

"Is it better to end our lives? Than being devoured by the monster? No... It could still absorb our vitality, even if we do that." Lucian walked to the civilians. "Everyone, let the kids hide in the holes or narrow places. At least they have to survive, as they were the ones that would tell the tales when we are gone. After all, a dead man can\'t tell a story. They are the future, and they\'re the only ones that can fit in those small passages."

Lucian pointed at the dark holes on the floor near a dancing area. There are balls strewn around on the white floor, and different kinds of instruments could be seen near the case.

One won\'t see the end of the holes that could lead to an unknown place. There are three of them in total and had the same diameter.

When the people heard Lucian\'s proposal, they immediately turned their heads at the holes simultaneously. And just like what Lucian said. Only kids with small bodies can fit and pass through it.

A woman in her thirties steps forward. Her eyes had shades on their side and looked dry. She held a little girl in pink pajamas and a white t-shirt. Her chubby cheeks and clear brown eyes gave those who looks at her an urge to tease her.

Her porcelain white skin and smooth, shiny black hair complemented her small face. She blinked her eyes and turned her head shyly at the ground as she saw the people focused on her.

The woman indeed look tired, but she still looked at the little girl in her hands with tenderness and love.

"Is that your daughter? She looks like a doll." Lucian smiled as he remembered his son and his daughter.
