"Do you think I can't beat you? This is Hell, and I don't need to be trapped in that rotten shell anymore. My power is no longer limited by time, and I've also devoured many souls in Hell. I'm no longer the same as before. "
"Confidence is good, but have you thought about what happens if you lose?"
"I won't lose …"
"Why don't you turn around and see what my friend thinks?"
"Your friend?" Winry suddenly realized that there was a black shadow looming over her.
Winry turned around. She saw a scene that was more terrifying and despairing than anything she had seen in this life and her previous life combined.
She'd heard the souls wandering around this area talk about the giant snake before her. He was the ruler of this area, a terrifying demon lord.
After Winry fell into Hell, she'd seen this demon from afar.
Every time Raymond ate, he'd go to the desert and devour some souls. He'd leave when he was full.
Whoever was devoured by him could only blame their bad luck.
Every time Raymond appeared, the other souls would hide far away.
"Let me introduce you. This is my friend, Raymond Stiles." Chen Zhao smiled at Winry.
"Human, what do you want to do with her?"
"I don't want to kill her yet. I have some questions to ask her."
Raymond opened his mouth and spat out a thick acid, directly onto Winry's body.
Winry immediately screamed. Smoke rose from her body and she fell to the ground in pain.
"Are you sure you won't kill her?" Chen Zhao asked regretfully, looking at Winry.
"This is how I store food. My paralyzing poison will seal her up and make her lose consciousness. She won't go bad … It's the same effect as a refrigerator you humans use."
"Okay."
Chen Zhao saw a three-meter-tall guy beside Raymond.
Of course, compared to Raymond, this big guy was considered small.
The demon's skin was brown. He had a big bald head, long pointy ears, and a large mouth. A pair of canine teeth protruded from his chin.
His body was draped with the skin of an unknown animal, and the exposed skin had many gaps of various sizes.
These gaps were all eyelids. When they opened and closed, they were all eyes.
Chen Zhao counted. There were about a hundred eyes on the demon's body.
"Hello, are you a True Vision user?"
"Greetings, Living Excellency, I am the True Visionary Leos" the True Visionary replied, his voice a bit weak.
"Let me examine your body."
As Chen Zhao examined Leos, he asked some questions.
"Have you done anything special recently? Or have you encountered anything?"
"Last time, I accidentally ate a xenogeneic Hell Flower. I was bedridden for a whole month, but that was half a year ago."
Chen Zhao thought about it. The Hell's Flower was poisonous. Even to demons, it was harmful to some extent.
What would happen to the mutated Hell's Lotus?
Chen Zhao wasn't sure about this either. He needed to investigate further.
Chen Zhao discovered that one of Leos' eyeballs seemed to be covered in thin red veins.
"Leos, can you still see this eyeball?"
"This eyeball has lost its effect."
Then, he realized that a few of Leos' eyeballs had the same symptoms.
Chen Zhao reached out and pressed around the eyeballs. He finally discovered something. The veins on the eyeballs weren't blood veins. They were more like the roots of some plant.
Chen Zhao took out his stethoscope and started listening carefully to Leos' internal situation.
"There's something parasitic in your body," Chen Zhao said.
"Really? Do you have a solution?"
In Hell, it was very common to be parasitized by some creature.
The parasitic creature and the demon were in a symbiotic relationship. Under normal circumstances, neither could do anything to the other.
However, there was another type of parasitic creature that was more invasive and harmful to the host.
Right now, the parasitic creature in Leos' body was clearly that type. If it wasn't removed in time, Leos might be sucked dry of nutrients and die.
"I need to operate on you and physically remove the parasitic creature."
"As long as you can get that damned thing out of my body, you can do whatever you want."
Suddenly, an eyeball that had been disabled opened and shot a beam at Chen Zhao.
Chen Zhao suddenly lost control of his right hand. The Mouth of Gluttony in his palm opened and the beam shot into the mouth.
Chen Zhao hurriedly retreated in fear. "Leos, why did you attack a human?" Raymond asked, dissatisfied.
"I didn't do it. I lost control of this eye long ago."
"That parasitic creature has consciousness. It seems to have sensed my intentions, so it attacked me first," Chen Zhao analyzed.
"Leos, seal your uncontrollable eye. Otherwise, humans won't be able to operate on it."
"Fine. After I get this guy out, I'll cut him into pieces."
Chen Zhao finally sealed all the uncontrollable eyeballs in Leos' body. Raymond also helped a lot.
Leos' final anesthesia was through Raymond's venom.
"Raymond, give me some of your anesthetic venom later."
…
The operation began.
If it was a human, Chen Zhao wouldn't operate in such an environment.
However, his patient was a demon this time. He couldn't send a demon into the hospital's operation room, right?
Therefore, he could only overcome the difficulties under these conditions.
Of course, Chen Zhao had to do whatever he could.
For example, he had to disinfect the surgical tools to ensure that the patient wouldn't be infected.
The sharp scalpel sliced across Leos' abdomen. With a whoosh, the brown skin opened like a zipper.
Chen Zhao saw Leos' organs. In the center of the organs, there was a very obvious thing hiding. It looked like an octopus was hiding inside.
And this parasitic octopus, its tentacles were connected to various organs, as well as Leos' flesh and blood.
If a person was parasitized by this thing, they would probably be sucked dry in no time.
Only demons with strong vitality could persist for such a long time.
Chen Zhao held a syringe and carefully approached the parasite. Just as the needle was about to pierce in, the parasite's two tentacles suddenly stuck to Chen Zhao's arm.
Chen Zhao wanted to pull his hand back, but he couldn't.
Just then, the Mouth of Gluttony on his palm opened again.
The Mouth of Gluttony bit down on the parasite again. Chen Zhao panicked. "Don't eat everything. Let go. Leos has a stomachache. Do you want it too?"
