Cheryl stood up again, unhurt.

The sound of the collision just now was definitely real. Why was she completely uninjured?

Chen Zhao looked at the iron door. There was a small dent on the door, even though it was not obvious.

Chen Zhao touched the door. He realized that there were more signs of impact.

“In the past two days, were you so bored that you have been running into the door for fun?”

“I didn’t do it for fun. I wanted to open the door,” Cheryl said.

“This iron door is at least 10cm thick. It’s impossible to open it by running into it.” Chen Zhao felt the door with his hand. He knew that it was indeed very thick.

“I can’t break the door open, but I can destroy the hinges,” Cheryl explained. “In the last two days, I have already made the wall crack.”

“You really haven’t eaten for two days?” Chen Zhao stared at Cheryl in doubt.

Even adults were not as powerful as her.

Cheryl glanced at Chen Zhao. “Hope that we can get out of here before midnight.”

“Why before midnight?”

“You won’t want to know it,” Cheryl said.

“Will Ms. Yucis turn into a monster?” Chen Zhao asked.

Cheryl kept silent and continued to hit the door with her body.

“Stand back. Let me do it,” Chen Zhao said.

“You? You’re not even as strong as Mr. Kerry. Get out of the way.” Cheryl struggled away from Chen Zhao’s hand.

Despised by a girl who was only 1.3 meters tall, Chen Zhao felt really annoyed.

Chen Zhao kicked onto the floor and bolted toward the iron door at full speed.

However, he was stunned by the impact from the collision. He almost could not feel his shoulder anymore.

Nonetheless, the door produced a loud creak.

Chen Zhao collapsed onto the floor, holding his shoulder with the other hand.

It was too painful…

Cheryl walked to the door. She discovered that Chen Zhao’s strike had caused the door to deform obviously.

“That’s a lot of force.” Cheryl looked at Chen Zhao in surprise.

Chen Zhao was stronger than she had imagined. He rubbed his shoulder as he got up to his feet. “I think my shoulder will break before the door does.”

“You’ve done enough,” Cheryl said. Meanwhile, she took a few steps back and then charged into the door again.

Bang!

One corner of the door curved outward. Although the door was still bolted, the hinges were already deformed.

Chen Zhao had to admit that while Cheryl was not as strong as him, her physical resistance was higher.

Are girls nowadays all so tough? Chen Zhao wondered.

Cheryl lifted her leg and kicked hard onto the door, but it did not seem to be effective.

“Let me do it.” Chen Zhao felt that he had to display his strength.

However, after kicking the door over ten times with all his might, the door still did not move.

Who the f**k made such a high quality door?

“Let me rest for a while.”

Chen Zhao sat onto the bed and looked at Cheryl’s back. “Did you just grow a bit taller? Or is it just me?”

Cheryl turned her head around. Standing in the shadows, her eyes seemed to be emitting a green light.

Chen Zhao was slightly scared because he felt that he had been locked with a monster.

Cheryl looked at Chen Zhao. “It’s better if you don’t know about it.”

“Do you have some other kind of bloodline?”

“I said, you better not know about it.”

Bang!

Cheryl hit the door again with more force than she had been using.

The door opened, its hinges destroyed completely. Cheryl turned around and glanced at Chen Zhao.

“Let’s get outta here.”

Chen Zhao immediately ran to the door. However, the next instant, a black figure appeared before them and collided into Cheryl.

Cheryl flew backward, hitting Chen Zhao along the way. Chen Zhao became the cushion and could not stand up for a while.

Cheryl turned over and stood up, producing a monstrous roar.

Chen Zhao realized that the person standing outside the door was none other than Yucis.

However, there was a large tumor on her back, growing out through her torn clothes.

“Cheryl, you’re just as rebellious as you have been. You should learn to obey the rules,” Yucis said softly.

Gritting her teeth, Cheryl stared at Yucis. Sharp claws grew out from her fingers. “I’ll never obey your rules, you monster!”

“Err… How about you two chat first? I suddenly remember I have something else later. Bye.”

“Mr. Chen, Cheryl’s treatment has yet to be finished, so you can’t leave now.”

“Ms. Yucis, I don’t think I can help in Cheryl’s condition.”

“No, you can.”

“I can’t.” Chen Zhao was rather bored. What does this perverted old woman want?

“Do you know how she wants you to treat me?” Cheryl said.

“No,” Chen Zhao admitted.

“She wants you to be killed by me.”

“What?”

“She wants you to be killed by me,” Cheryl repeated.

“Why? Why would she want that?”

“I said, you won’t want to know.”

“Look, she’s turned into a monster, and so will you. What can I not know now?”

“Like what you’ve seen, I’m a monster. After midnight, I’ll lose my rationality. She hopes that I can kill you myself later, so that I can completely turn into the monster that she wants to see.”

“So I came here as a sacrifice?”

“You finally got it,” Cheryl said.

“How will she benefit if you turn into a monster?”

Yucis twisted her neck in an unnatural way and a wicked smile appeared on her face. “I only want to change my body. She’s the body that I want: young and special. Combine with me and we’ll be invincible!”

“Don’t even think about it!” Cheryl roared in anger. At the same time, she charged toward Yucis.

The tumor on Yucis’ back suddenly enlarged. It moved over her shoulder and struck toward Cheryl as if it had its own mind.

Cheryl was blown backward again. There was a mouth at the top of the tumor. When it hit Cheryl, it tore a piece of flesh from her arm, after which it chewed and swallowed the flesh.

Cheryl stood up again. With her arm covered in blood, she looked obviously in pain.

The tumor on Yucis’ back was really terrifying. It was dark red, had no eyes, but a huge mouth filled with sharp teeth. There were a few thin tentacles around its mouth and a row of tiny holes on each side. Presumably, it breathed through these holes.

The tumor looked like the head of a worm. It could vary its own length.

However, its reaction speed was clearly faster than a worm.

“Cheryl, how about let me try?” Chen Zhao pulled Cheryl’s arm.

“Get back! You can’t do anything here. Stop standing in my way!”

Cheryl was almost out of control, just like a furious little cat.
