Chapter 794 -450: The Stronger the Change_2
Zhang Xiaomo shook her head, “On the outside… it’s not obvious.”
Just at this moment, Zhang Di, who had been observing the movements across the street, exclaimed, “It’s out, that guy is out again.”
Yan Junze hurried to crouch down with the others, lying on the window and peering carefully across the street.
At the moment he saw the apparition emerge, he was startled and blurted out, “It’s a person!”
“Right, its appearance is completely human,” Zhang Xiaomo whispered.
The figure that appeared on the third floor corridor across the street was a fatty man with sparse hair, an oily face, dressed in a jacket and slacks. Plump and white, he walked with an uneven gait.
He seemed very cautious, also harboring a sense of anger, glancing around every few steps.
“I hit it twice, and when its flesh peeled back, I saw that all the meat inside was white, a snowy color, and from this white flesh oozed black non-Newtonian fluid,” Huang Wenjian said.
“Not only that,” Mei Lianhua added, “When I didn’t use physical attacks, that is, when I simply used magnetic glow to kill this thing, its magnetic field was completely dispersed by me, but it would almost re-aggregate in about half a minute.”
“Interesting,” Yan Junze stared at the chubby silhouette.
Huang Wenjian continued, “According to its usual path, the creature will come under the No. 2 Academic Building and then burrow into that patch of greenery. If we go too late, it’ll disappear and won’t reappear until night.”
“Since it started appearing in the school, has it launched any unprovoked attacks on humans?” Yan Junze asked.
The four Exorcists were startled, and Zhang Di took out a photo: “This is the photo I took from the school administration’s notice board. The man in the picture is the head of academic affairs.”
Yan Junze looked down and saw that the person in the photo was indeed the fat man in the academic building on the opposite side.
“He is… the head of academic affairs?!”
“Me and Lianhua speculate that this Strangeness must have killed the head of academic affairs and taken over his skin,” Huang Wenjian said, “As for why kill the head of academic affairs, it probably has to do with his body type. We looked it up, and he was the fattest in Experiment No. 3 Middle School.”

“So, this creature might be so swollen that it found the skin of a fatty to stuff itself into?” Yan Junze said.
“Very likely,” Mei Lianhua had already stood up by this time and was striding towards the door, “I’ll go stop it; otherwise, the guy will be gone again soon. Junze, think about how we could get rid of it.”
His words implied that conventional attacks had been proven ineffective, and perhaps Yan Junze could try his Buddha-style Exorcism.
Yan Junze remained noncommittal, watching Mei Lianhua leave the room, his footsteps vanishing quickly.
Looking out the window, the fat man had already reached the first floor. He was stumbling as he walked, clearly struggling to control the skin he was in.
Soon the fatty arrived in front of the flower bed on the ground floor. His nose twitched as he sniffed around. He kept his back hunched, the fat on his stomach straining against his white shirt, tearing it open.
The buttons had popped off, exposing white blubbery flesh; he swayed with every step, approaching the flower bed and leaning over the fence surrounding it.
Clearly, after being killed multiple times by Mei Lianhua and Huang Wenjian, this creature had become more cautious and filled with anger.
Seeing this, Huang Wenjian sighed and said, “It’s becoming harder and harder to kill. From the first time I killed it until now, I’ve noticed its fat has grown significantly thicker, and each time it’s harder than before. Moreover, the head of academic affairs wasn’t this fat before. It… seems to be getting fatter!”
Zhang Di nodded incessantly, “Indeed, it has gotten fatter; the skin of the head of academic affairs looks like it’s about to burst, like a balloon.”
Outside the flower bed, the fatty rolled over and burrowed into it, his feet sinking into the somewhat moist earth, almost burying his ankles due to his weight.
It seemed to be breathing heavily, bending down laboriously. Just as he was about to bury his head in the earth, a shadow dashed toward him from outside the flower bed.
Those above could see clearly that the person charging at the fatty was Mei Lianhua.
Mei Lianhua moved with a lightness of a swallow, barely touching the ground with his toes, his hands gripping the magnetic knife as he flew into the flower bed, slashing at the back of the fatty who was bending over.
At the same moment, the fatty, who had been alert to his surroundings, not only did not dodge but instead arched his back high. The clothes on his back tore apart with a whoosh, revealing the white flesh, which swelled up massively at that moment. The muscles and fat tightened, becoming extraordinarily hard.
Thud!
The magnetic knife, wrapped in magnetic glow, struck the creature’s back, neither slicing through nor emitting a crisp sound.
The noise of the collision was muffled; it seemed as though the fatty’s body had absorbed all the force of the blow.
“The first time I attacked it, it was killed with just one slice,” Huang Wenjian murmured to himself, “I reckon, it’s going to take some extra effort this time.”
The fatty, whose head had been buried, suddenly lifted it up. His entire body swelled, quickly ripping open all the clothes on his body, and layers of white flesh piled up. Large amounts of black non-Newtonian fluid seeped out of the broken skin.
The fatty was burning with rage, unleashing a tremendous outburst of anger that had been building up and howled furiously at Mei Lianhua.
Without a word, Mei Lianhua amplified the magnetic glow of the magnetic knife to its maximum and slashed down with another cut.
