It wasn't that Rodney was cowardly, but rather that Wen Wen's appearance was too startling, catching him completely off guard and forcing him to witness this scene. Especially the gaze that seemed to claim him as its own, which was ferociously extreme.
In fact, apart from those monsters who had already lost their sanity, normal monsters also experienced emotions like joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness. They too could be startled by certain events, though the triggers might differ from those of ordinary humans.
Rodney's tentacles were so frightened they twitched. The rest of the family of three, excluding Zhao Fei, fared even worse. The woman fainted from fright, the man bolted, and the child sat on the ground and cried inconsolably.
Wen Wen didn't want to escalate the situation, so he leaped down like a large bird and knocked the child unconscious. Then, he grabbed a stool and threw it at the man, knocking him out as well.
Seeing Wen Wen decisively neutralize the two, Rodney became even more terrified. "You, you... When did you get here?"
He stammered when he said "you," but quickly regained his composure. After all, he was a monster with psychic abilities and wouldn't allow himself to remain in a state of shock for too long.
Wen Wen pursed his lips and slowly walked towards Rodney. "When you thought there were only four people in this house."
Rodney's eyes darted around, and he pressed a button-like device on his ear, speaking rapidly. "Lady Matilda, the suspect obstructing the human-demon fetus plan has been found, at the home of Human-Demon Fetus Seven."
"He's wearing a black trench coat and a large cloak, and his smile is terrifying. Based on his actions, he's a member of an enemy secret organization... possibly Blasphemous Blood!"
Wen Wen pulled out a small mirror and looked at his face, saying speechlessly, "Are you kidding me? I look so handsome and dashing, how could I possibly be a madman from Blasphemous Blood?"
Soon, a voice came from the button again: "You stall him, I'll be there to deal with him shortly. Everyone else, continue recalling all the human-demon fetuses!"
"Matilda? Everyone else? Recall the human-demon fetuses?"
Although the voice was faint, Wen Wen still heard it. This single sentence revealed a lot of information to him.
While Wen Wen was pondering the meaning of that sentence, Rodney's eyes flashed with an eerie purple light, causing Wen Wen's thoughts to pause. Then, several tentacles extended from Rodney's limbs and jaw, binding Wen Wen.
Immediately after, Rodney threw a flying knife towards Wen Wen's chest. The immense strength of the tentacles was enough to crush a boulder, and the flying knife was sufficient to pierce an ordinary person. Under the daze, Wen Wen offered no resistance, yet he remained unharmed.
After using the magical tickle stick, every inch of Wen Wen's skin was harder than steel, and his physique was impervious to tentacles stronger than giant pythons.
However, even so, when Wen Wen instantly regained his senses, he couldn't help but feel indignant. To Rodney's horrified gaze, he violently broke free from the tentacles.
He hadn't expected to be almost caught by this potato-squid monster after fighting so many powerful opponents. Rodney's move that had dazed Wen Wen was somewhat similar to the female ghost Wen Wen had captured earlier, but the intensity of the mental impact was significantly greater.
"Mental attack? Excellent, it's mine from now on!"
Wen Wen grabbed a sticky tentacle with his left hand and directly yanked Rodney towards him, landing a punch on his potato-like face, sending him flying. The highly resilient tentacle then sprang Rodney back, and he was hit again in his mottled face.
After a few more blows back and forth, Rodney was already groggy. He endured the dizziness, severed his tentacle, and while fleeing, pressed the button, saying, "New intelligence: Target possesses at least disaster-level strength, extremely brutal, request immediate support..."
Unfortunately, before he could finish speaking, Wen Wen grabbed him by the collar and dragged him back, pinning him to the ground by his chest, unable to move.
Wen Wen held the staff of madness in reverse grip, a sinister grin on his face, and said to him, "I, Wen Wen, am never petty. I won't seek revenge for a small loss. I'm hitting you simply because you're ugly."
With that, as if playing golf, he struck Rodney's head with the staff. The immense force nearly rendered Rodney unconscious. However, Wen Wen did not stop, unleashing a brutal onslaught on Rodney with the Chaotic Cloak Staff Technique.
Indeed, the so-called Chaotic Cloak Staff Technique was essentially just wildly striking the head and face with the staff...
When Rodney completely lost consciousness, Wen Wen finally calmed down and dragged him into the containment facility.
However, despite successfully subduing Rodney, Wen Wen's mood remained somewhat sour. The minor setback he'd experienced with Rodney made him realize he had become a bit too arrogant lately.
Having consecutively fought and emerged victorious against disaster-level monsters, he had begun to not take disaster-level monsters seriously. Such an attitude was fatal in the world of superhumans! Sudan Novel Network
Perhaps there was a disaster-level monster that completely countered him, and being careless then could cost him his life.
After a brief period of self-reflection, Wen Wen immediately picked up his phone and dialed Wang Junyi's number.
Wen Wen clearly remembered Rodney's earlier communication with the outside world. The person on the other end had said that the others should hurry and gather the human-demon fetuses, while he would come to deal with Wen Wen.
Even after Rodney had reported his strength, the other party still showed no intention of retreating, which indicated they were confident in their ability to surround and kill an ordinary disaster-level powerhouse.
Moreover, under such circumstances, they still had the capacity to individually summon an unknown number of human-demon fetuses. Although Wen Wen was not afraid of them, there was no need for him to foolishly wait for them to come and deal with him.
Most importantly, if even Zhao Fei, a human-demon fetus who had not yet begun to unleash his potential, had a personally dispatched disaster-level demon to recall him, then Wang Zixuan's side would at least have a demon sent there as well, and it was possible that the person sent would be even stronger due to Wen Wen having subdued Wang Zixuan.
Therefore, Wen Wen needed to return quickly. Despite the presence of the Three Cubs, Wen Wen still feared that Wang Junyi and his wife might face retaliation from the demons.
When Wen Wen emerged from Wang Junyi's phone, the demon sent to pick up Wang Zixuan had already arrived downstairs. Wen Wen looked down from upstairs and saw that the demon had arrived in an ordinary white car.
Wen Wen muttered to himself, "That potato-octopus head also drove, and arrived at Zhao Fei's place first. If all the demons departed from the same location simultaneously, then based on this time difference and their car speeds, I can roughly deduce a vague location!"
After saying that, Wen Wen shook his head. "No, the range deduced that way would be too large, and I can't complete the investigation alone in a short period of time."
