In the Main World, the light cocoon slowly dispersed, and Zhou Yang's body appeared within it.
Zhou Yang slowly opened his eyes, revealing a pair of pupils as dark as ink, like a deep abyss capable of devouring all living beings that met his gaze.
Buzz buzz buzz!
A mosquito slowly flew past Zhou Yang, entering his field of vision!
But before it could use its proboscis to suck blood, a dark light flashed, and the mosquito's body stiffened in mid-air, falling straight to the ground!
Zhou Yang narrowed his eyes and said faintly:
"Mosquitoes have such short lives; they only plunder about a second of time. If I want an hour of time, I need to devour three thousand six hundred mosquitoes, which is time-consuming and laborious.
But plundering an adult male can yield several days of time; the two are completely disproportionate!"
This was the Ability Zhou Yang obtained from Tokisaki Kurumi's red packet: City of Devouring Time!
It was the barrier Kurumi used to replenish time. Living beings that entered the barrier's range would have their time forcibly absorbed, and their bodies would become heavy and unable to move.
This was simply a holy domain in a magic world, the divine kingdom of gods!
It could both devour others' time and suppress enemies. Although it was not very useful against powerful opponents, it was an unparalleled Sharp Weapon for clearing the field and fighting evenly matched opponents!
One can imagine, during a duel, Zhou Yang suddenly releases City of Devouring Time to suppress the opponent's movements, creating a brief opening!
In this small mistake, Zhou Yang could already kill the opponent more than a dozen times!
Compared to the Spirit Armor and Angels that required spiritual power to use, Zhou Yang still felt that the City of Devouring Time barrier was more suitable for him!
However, this Ability to devour others' time for his own use always gave Zhou Yang an urge to put on black-rimmed glasses and recite poetry!
For example, Gou…
What good is it to be virtuous for oneself if one has no heart to help the world?
Zhou Yang gave up the idea of courting death and glanced out the window, realizing it was already dawn!
He didn't expect accepting the City of Devouring Time would take an entire night!
Walking to the mirror, Zhou Yang carefully observed himself and found that his skin was now even finer than before, even smoother than many of the girls in his class!
Moreover, his eyes seemed to have become deep and profound due to containing the City of Devouring Time, like vast stars, ancient and mysterious!
"I didn't expect my appearance to improve so much after being influenced by this power!"
Zhou Yang stroked his chin, saying contentedly, admiring himself with a touch of narcissism for a few minutes.
"By the way, it's time for class…"
Zhou Yang checked the time; it was already seven in the morning, with only an hour left until class started.
Although attending school didn't really matter, graduation was only a few days away.
After these few days, he could get a diploma and obtain a respectable public identity!
And now he possessed the City of Devouring Time and Demonic Manifestation; either of these could provide him with the identity of a Supernaturalist!
In this society, the status of a Supernaturalist was far higher than that of ordinary people, enjoying numerous privileges!
After putting on his school uniform, Zhou Yang checked his phone, which contained a text message from his younger sister!
The message roughly stated that the mission had encountered a minor problem but was completed without much danger. She was currently on her way back from the eastern region and had brought him a special gift.
A gift?
It should be the body parts of the Yao Beast from this time!
Although Yao Beasts were the natural enemies of the Human Race, their mutated bodies were also treasures. Their hard scales could be used to make armor, and their flexible hides could be used to make highly defensive leather clothing.
Even their flesh and blood contained vast Qi and blood, and long-term consumption could nourish the body, increasing the chance of becoming a Supernaturalist!
It was precisely because of this that the rich became richer and the poor became poorer. Coupled with the guidance of various social organizations, companies, and so on, through work, food, and propaganda, the class system was completely solidified!
Therefore, to change the status quo, one must grasp power oneself!
And his younger sister, Zhou Yun, always said that once she became a Supernaturalist, she would hunt Yao Beasts every day so that he could consume these precious flesh and blood daily, become a Supernaturalist, and then they could be together forever!
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang's mind conjured up memories of when that girl, afraid of the dark as a child, would always hug a rabbit doll he gave her and come to his room to sleep with him.
This situation continued until middle school when the little girl started to develop and understood more about male and female matters, and then it stopped!
It was a pity that Zhou Yang lost a warm large pillow, resulting in insomnia at night, and it took him a full half a month to adjust back.
"I wonder what expression that girl will have when she sees that I became a Supernaturalist before her. Will it be surprise? Or delight?
But I feel it's more fun to keep it a secret. I still like being a lazy older brother who secretly protects his sister, but outwardly is protected by her!"
Zhou Yang's lips curled slightly. He took a piece of bread from the refrigerator, pushed open the door, and walked towards the school…
