Five intestines were hanging behind Luo Fan’s eyeball like tentacles hanging behind the head of an octopus.
They were long and curved like iron worms.
In order to better absorb the brain of the corpse and obtain the tissues, Luo Fan made some changes to the tips of the intestines.
A needle-like mouthpiece had been installed at the tip. This needle-like organ could be inserted into tissues to suck matter.
“Let me sense. Where are all of you?”
The five intestines began to move behind the eyeball, exploring the space around them and touching the matter around them.
“There is one! It has a very smooth surface.”
Very soon, Luo Fan touched one.
Soon after, Luo Fan’s intestine slowly circled around the maggot which had been found. The needle-like mouthpiece was raised like a hammer about to smash down.
Pfft.
The mouthpiece pierced directly into the maggot’s body, and yellow pus instantly emerged from the maggot’s body.
“They say this thing is highly nutritious. It’s really true!”
After sucking two mouthfuls, Luo Fan could sense that the nutrition in the body of this maggot was really high.
Not only had it provided him with a lot of the nutrients necessary for life, but it had also provided a lot of heat.
He was delighted.
“The next step is to mend my body and continue absorbing these maggots,” Luo Fan muttered to himself. He then mobilized the other intestines to begin searching around for maggots.
After finding the maggots, he would use the needle-like mouthpiece to pierce into the maggot’s body.
Although these maggots struggled with all their might, Luo Fan’s mouth pierce was like a fish hook, tightly hanging onto the maggot’s body.
Little by little, the body of the maggots was slowly sucked dry from the inside even as they continued to struggle.
In the end, a plump maggot became like a molted skin, dry and flat, and was discarded by Luo Fan.
Thus, Luo Fan absorbed the nutrients from the maggots around him and then strengthened himself.
He created new intestines, increased the length of the intestines, and mended the eyeball.
…
Two days passed.
White bones could be seen on the corpse. Not just the soft parts of the eye had been gnawed by the maggots, there were also a lot of maggots burrowing out of the corpse.
These maggots had fully stuffed the corpse; they were crawling inside its organs, blood vessels, intestines, and muscles.
In the corpse’s head, no tissues or structures were intact. It was just a muddy matter of tissues and blood, replete with colors of yellow, white, and red.
Countless maggots were rolling and crawling in the muddy puree of tissues and blood.
And on top of this muddy puree of tissues and blood, an eyeball was half submerged within.
This was Luo Fan.
What looked like eight tentacles had grown out of his body. They were thin and long. Hanging from the bottom of the eyeball, they were immersed in that mixture of tissues and blood.
Apart from the maggots, these tentacles that look like iron worms were also stirring.
After Luo Fan had fallen out of the eye socket, he dropped into the head and ended up in this state after two days of fermentation.
The human brain was like a receptacle filled with this mixture.
“The repairs have finally been completed!”
Luo Fan sighed with emotion. “It took me two days to repair my body. It was really not easy. But fortunately, apart from repairing the eyeball, I had also split out a few intestines.”
The eyeball was now whole, and on its original base, Luo Fan had created a few more intestines.
There were already eight intestines hanging from below this eyeball.
At this moment, the eight intestines continued to absorb the nutrients around them and also continued to kill the maggots.
“I can try to upgrade those newly divided cells now.”
Luo Fan thought, “Right now, other than a portion of the cells of my eyeball, the rest of my cells are all level-1 cells. Although I have tried my best to avoid it, I still cannot avoid being colonized by bacteria.”
“This is unavoidable. I must upgrade a portion of the cells first.”
“Upgrading the cells of the eyeball is not the wisest choice. The level-2 cells in my eyeball suffice in accommodating my intelligence.”
“It’s better to upgrade the intestinal cells to increase the absorption and conversion rates before evolving all the cells in the body.
After thinking about it, Luo Fan decided that his next goal was to evolve the intestinal cells in his body to level-2 cells.
The environment he was in now was rich in resources, enough for him to strengthen every cell in his body.
“I’ll strengthen all the cells in the body first, then store some energy before leaving this place.”
This was Luo Fan’s plan. This way, he would have a better chance of surviving.
He was unclear about the situation outside, so he could only strengthen himself as much as he could here, so that he could protect himself after leaving this place.
This corpse would eventually be reduced to a skeleton. Luo Fan had to make preparations to leave.
“Evolve!”
Immediately afterwards, Luo Fan began to give order for the energy which had just been converted to flow towards one of the eight intestines.
Then, within a few minutes, a large number of cells in the intestine advanced to level-2.
The cells that advanced to level-2 had started from the part which was connected to the eyeball and moved up slowly.
…
Luo Fan was developing steadily in the space he was in.
This was a stretch of ruins. Countless corpses were strewn everywhere. It was as if this place had just experienced a massacre.
Other than human corpses, there were also a large number of carcasses of unknown creatures. Their bodies had the structure of insects, but each one was very tall.
As far as the eye could see, there was not a single living soul in the city.
The closer he looked to the center of the city, the denser the human corpses and carcasses of unknown creatures.
If Luo Fan could stand high up in the sky and see this scene, he would definitely exclaim out loud, “What the hell! So much energy! What level would all this strengthen me to?!”
At this moment, helicopters were flying over the ruins.
Copious amounts of liquid rained down where the helicopters flew past.
At another place, in a conference room.
“In order to prevent the outbreak of a plague, this is the most reasonable way to deal with it.”
“This stretch of ruins was once the home of humans. Now, it’s about to be burnt down.”
“We can’t possibly transport all the bodies of our dead human compatriots out. Let us use this method to hold a mass cremation for the entire city.”
“The cremation of a city. This will be a colorful entry in history.”
These human executives had no means to give burial to all the dead humans in the city.
In order to prevent the plague and let the humans in the entire city rest in peace, they had chosen such a method.
They would set the whole city on fire!
A large number of helicopters flew over the city, spraying liquid over every corner of the city.
For an entire day and night, there were helicopters flying above the city.
Like vultures that had seen rotting flesh, they hovered above the city.
“Light the fire!”
A command was given.
Several helicopters entered the city.
Then, a large number of incendiary bombs were dropped from the helicopters.

They landed everywhere in the city.
Every time one landed, it would cause an explosion, and a big fire would burn at the place of explosion.
It was as if the entire city was blooming. Flames kept rising from every corner.
These were fireworks that bloomed on the ground, as well as wreaths to send off the city.
