Kitchen.

Dean on the stove threw away a half-nibbled cabbage, grabbed the beef in the plastic box, and desperately put it in his mouth.

Steel Tooth chews lightly, chews the meat and swallows it into the stomach.

Without a pause.

Shaking off the empty bloody plastic box, Dean grabbed the hot steak in the frying pan next to him, and nibbled on it no matter how cooked it was.

The frenzied eating spree lasted for half an hour.

Destroying a large pile of vegetables and ten pounds of raw beef steak, Dean finally filled the black hole in his stomach, and the corners of his mouth stained with oil and blood grinned with satisfaction.

"Hiccup... Luckily, there wasn't just a lot of fresh food on the Stone's menu, otherwise I would have starved to death. ”

Before and after the mimic, the blood and energy that have passed away will not be recovered in a vacuum, and the losses will eventually be regained, and they can only be fed.

This breeds a terrible gluttony.

"In the future, bring some high-calorie supplies before fighting."

However, the figuration was more strategic than he expected, and if he could successfully transform when he was seriously injured and dying, he would be able to continue his life.

……

After a short break to eat, Dean's attention returned to the system-

Withdraw rewards.

EXP +150,

Personal Level: Lv2 (290/300)→ Lv3 (140/400)

Gain 1 stat point.

The number of taskbars has been expanded to two.

System Ability: God Perspective Lv1→ Lv2: Range 10 meters→ 20 meters.

……

You've slain the nocturnal Westene, choose one of the following four special rewards:

A. Specialization: Beginner Iron Man Upgraded to Intermediate Iron Man:

The buffs of physical attributes to you, including vitality, stamina, physical and injury recovery speed, resistance to blows, digestion, nutrient absorption, and physical ailment resistance, are all increased by 30% → 50%.

In addition, your immunity and longevity get an additional small boost.

It is already difficult for common diseases and bad lifestyle habits to invade your body and damage your health, and at the same time, you will live longer than ordinary people, and the rate of aging will slow down slightly.

……

B. Specialty Beginner Iron Man Mutates to Beginner Nocturnal Species, gaining a moderate increase:

Physical stats increase your positive effects by 30% → 70%.

Your immunity is additionally boosted so that you are immune to regular diseases.

At the same time, your life expectancy is doubled compared with ordinary people, the aging rate is greatly slowed down, and your appearance, physical strength, energy, and mind will remain in the heyday of your youth, until the end of your life expectancy, you will age and weaken rapidly.

But strength is a double-edged sword, and with more power, you have to pay the corresponding price:

An abnormal appetite will be born within you, and you will treat the flesh of your fellow kind as a delicacy, digesting a powerful target that will draw a portion of his power.

But flesh and blood of the same kind are not necessities, and you can still survive on ordinary food.

You will be afraid of the sun, which cannot kill you, but will weaken your physical fitness.

……

C. Superpower - Super Smell (Perception): Your sense of smell for humanoids will be greatly improved.

You can easily identify thousands of different body odors between different individuals, and use the smell to determine their physical health, strength, and the people they've killed and the food they've eaten, so you can track down your target.

The effect of Super Smell is positively related to skill level and your perception attributes.

Each time a skill is raised, perception is slightly increased.

(Note: Your ability bar is full and you can't select this reward)

D. Raise your perception by 1 point.

……

"Generous rewards."

Dean clenched his fists and circled around the messy kitchen, his face flushed slightly with excitement, the pain of being poked out of several holes in his body before was worth it.

From the moment he crossed over, Iron Man's expertise has provided him with a huge boost to train with more energy, grow faster, recover from injuries faster, and face crises more tenaciously.

Its importance is undeniable.

What's more, this specialty also adds another effect - resistance to disease and increased lifespan.

Dean is not yet twenty years old, but who would dislike living too long?

Dean struggled between A and B for a moment.

Compared to A, B is enhanced in all aspects, is not bothered by disease, and is eternally young until death.

But alas, there are two more terrible negative effects.

……

At present, Dean, as a lone ranger, is more inclined to develop in an all-round way, after all, there will be more time in the future, and there will be more opportunities to gain power than once.

If you choose B in a hurry, you will find two weaknesses for yourself, especially the fear of the sun, which will be extremely detrimental to your future development.

……

Pain tolerance excludes B.

Dean paid a little attention to C.

In his opinion, the most important role of the super sense of smell is not to track, but to sniff out the number of humanoids killing or eating of their own kind.

This allows Dean to pick out a special individual from a pool of normal people: killers, criminals, monsters, or other supernatural individuals...

He will have the first mover advantage.

And the super smell upgrade can also improve perception and have growth, but it's a pity that his ability column is 5/5.

Don't know how to improve.

……

As for D, at this stage, the priority of directly adding attributes is ranked after specialties and skills, and Dean will not consider it unless he adds three or four points at a time.

……

Choose A.

Iron Man specialization upgraded.

Di An'an moved.

A torrent of exhilarating heat gushes out from somewhere in the body, rushing to the muscles, bones, fingers... Covers the whole body.

But the reaction came and went quickly.

After a breath vanished, Dean closed his eyes, his body warm as if there was a stove baking nearby.

Others also became comfortable and relaxed, as if they had soaked in a magical hot spring, and the hot spring water washed away the depression and dark diseases in the body.

Some of the little problems in the body are gone forever.

The corners of his mouth curled.

A faint joy of expanding the essence of life and jumping to the level of life swelled in my heart.

With a slight increase in longevity and immunity, Dean's skin becomes smoother, more delicate and radiant.

He touched his face.

"Now if there is no accident, I will have no problem living to be a hundred years old, but I don't know if I can live to 2077?"

……

The sun began to set in the west, the sunlight outside the window became less dazzling, and the time crept to four o'clock in the afternoon.

After tidying up the harvest, Dean returned to the bedroom.

Because the Stone family was worried that the evil deeds would leak out, there were no outsiders in the ancient mansion except them, which made Dean cheaper.

……

Dean dug out a black suit in the closet and replaced the bloody and torn clothes.

Then he picked up the slab in the ashes, sat on the torn bed, and felt the soul of the dead that he had just absorbed.

"Kristen, Perron, Heidenson, Leighton, Shannon... Well? ”

"Where do the souls of the nocturnal species go?"

There are only five souls of the Stone family in the board, which does not reach the upper limit of ten souls in the board, and it stands to reason that it should be able to hold Westen.

But no.

Dean couldn't figure it out.

Before that, the board could even absorb the soul of the Eater of the Dead, so why did it lose its effect on the soul of the nocturnal species?

Suddenly, a cold wind blew in from the window.

Vaguely, the wind brought Westen's words before he died—

"Midian's Paradise of Monsters,"

"The resting place of my soul."

……

"Could it be that the soul of the gorgony has returned to Midian?"

Di'an had the magical idea in front of him, and his eyes swept over the sides of the tunnel, the dense tombstones on the murals, and the intertwined underground kingdom hidden beneath the cemetery.

What kind of place is Midian, a monster paradise?

Except for this snake-haired monster that is afraid of the sun and eats people without blinking, what kind of humanoid monster lives there?

According to Tem, the more supernatural creatures gather, the more dangerous they become.

But wouldn't Midian's cause a terrible supernatural catastrophe because of the law of convergence?

Countless doubts welled up in my mind.

Dean had a strong desire to explore, and took the board and changed to a dark room, summoning the souls of the five hunters of the Stone family one by one.

I tortured them all according to the old method, and asked for more information about Midian and the nocturnal species.

It's a pity that nothing was found.

He tortured the whereabouts of the valuable belongings in the mansion and the innocents they had eaten in the past.

Swing the board and send the souls of the five people away.

"You killed the ghost*5... Mastery +1*5, Combat lv2 (95→100/300). ”

Dean went to a study on the right.

Pulling out a key from the hundreds of books on the shelves, he pulled out the black safe in the filing cabinet on his desk.

Turn three times.

“5，4，1”

Click.

The key is inserted into the lock hole and rotated.

With a crisp click, Dean opened the safe.

A strong golden light shot out, shaking his head dizzy, and his whole face was dyed gold.

"Gold bars."

He reached for a trapezoidal gold bar and flipped it, a standard 3.74 ounces.

In addition to the gold bars, the safe was stuffed with bundles of dollars and a pile of photographs of some of the victims hunted by the Stone family, along with addresses and names.

Dean had to admire the audacity of this family, who had harmed so many people and dared to leave evidence.

……

In the end, he counted about 100 gold bars in the safe, and nearly 200,000 yuan of American knives tied at 100 yuan.

The two are worth a total of more than 400,000 US dollars.

Although Dean is not a money-hungry person, he did not hesitate to confiscate them all into the black backpack without hesitation.

But next to the green dollar and dazzling gold, there are also several golden invitations, faintly embossed on the surface of a pair of red lizards with outstretched wings, oh no, red dragons, and the cover is inlaid with two hollowed-out English letters DR, which is as suffocating as a work of art.

Dean opened it and saw that the invitation was empty and unwritten.

"What kind of event or venue invitation?" How there is no time, no place, and no other description. ”

Dean looked regretful,

Knowing this, he would not have directly destroyed the Five Souls, and now he could only put away the invitation and clean up the traces in the house again.

……

In the middle of the night, he quietly left the manor and returned with a full load.
