Chapter 4
Lu Yu turned his head, but when he looked out through the glass, all he saw was the pitch-black night sky—nothing else!
Was that my imagination? Or maybe... a bird?
But a bird hitting the window wouldn’t make a knocking sound with such rhythm!
Could it be… something unclean has come knocking?
A flood of doubts surged in Lu Yu’s mind. If it really was something supernatural, he might actually feel… excited!
Yes, excited!
Because with the Monster Editing System, he could extract materials from all things in the world as long as they didn’t resist!
And once he had materials, he could create monster after monster, gaining their unique talents in the process!
Even someone completely talentless could climb the path to power with enough abilities!
Let alone Lu Yu—who never considered himself a loser. In his previous life, though he had been an orphan, he had relied on his own abilities to amass tens of millions in assets!
In this life, with an even more powerful system assisting him, he would naturally ride the winds and soar ninety thousand miles!
Clack, clack, clack!
Just as he was lost in thought, that strange sound returned. A strand of black hair dropped down from above—followed by more and more strands!
“Is this Sadako coming out now? And without a TV? Guess she’s upgrading to glass now haha…” *
Lu Yu made a dry joke and took a step back, mentally commanding the Fear Balloon to float up to the ceiling and stay still.
TL/N : *Sadako (贞子): A well-known character from the Japanese horror film The Ring (Ringu). She famously crawls out of a TV screen to haunt people.
“mii?!”
The Fear Balloon paused, a look of confusion flashing across its grimacing face, as if it didn’t understand why its supreme master told it not to move.
Still, it obediently floated in place, and to keep itself from swaying with the breeze, it raised its yellow ribbon and looped it once around the ceiling light, tying it into a neat bow.
After doing this, it beamed at Lu Yu, as if waiting for praise.
This idiot…
Lu Yu couldn’t help but roll his eyes. His tension was instantly eased quite a bit.
A perfect horror scene, completely ruined by this clown of a balloon—it was impossible to feel scared now!
Show some respect to the long-haired ghost outside, man—it’s trying to make an entrance too!
Smack!
A hand suddenly appeared outside the window, slapping against the glass—and that was only the beginning!
Smack! Smack! Smack!
More and more hands began to slam into the glass. Dark red blood oozed from between the fingers, trickling down the surface and leaving streaks of crimson in their wake.
And the “ghost” outside began to descend, revealing its true form!
It had a human head, with the face of a man but its hair hung limp like wet seaweed, draped over its shoulders!
If that were all, it might not be too shocking. But its lower body was a massive ball of flesh, from which extended eight arms—making it look disturbingly like a spider!
Those eight arms functioned like spider legs, with an eerie suction ability that allowed it to cling to the wall with ease.
“What the hell is this thing? A human-spider hybrid? That’s disgusting!”
Even Lu Yu couldn’t help but feel a wave of nausea—not out of fear, but from natural disgust at seeing such a grotesque form.
It looked exactly like a spider wearing a human skin.
Revolting.
“Hee-hee-hee…”
