Invincible Divine Doctor of the Beautiful Lady-Chapter 831 - 805: Brother, Are You Superman?
Chapter 831: Chapter 805: Brother, Are You Superman?
In the shop, two black-clad figures resembling Poisonous People stood there with a sinister air. Two women in their thirties huddled in a corner, their faces full of terror: "No, don’t bite me."
"Hmph, if you don’t want us to bite you, then hand over all your valuables immediately," one of the black-clad men said coldly.
"Okay, we’ll give them to you." The two women didn’t dare to resist, and hurriedly started taking out all their valuable belongings to hand over to the black-clad men. Under their black masks, the men’s eyes were full of greed, and even a lecherous glint as they looked at the women.
"How daring of you to impersonate Poisonous People and rob others. You’re courting death." Suddenly, an angry shout was heard.
The shout startled the two black-clad men. When they turned around and saw it was just a scholarly young man in his twenties, they quickly regained their composure. They put on a fierce and terrifying expression, trying to scare Tangyu: "Hmph, tender and juicy, you must taste delicious. I’m going to eat you."
With that, one of the black-clad men rushed at Tangyu with flailing arms. Tangyu’s eyes flashed with a cold light. He seized the man’s hands and twisted them forcefully, immediately producing two distinct cracking sounds that sent chills down one’s spine.
"Ah—" The black-clad man let out a scream like a slaughtered pig. Tangyu kicked out, landing heavily on the man’s stomach. He was sent flying through the air like a toad before crashing to the ground, spitting out some bloody filth and losing all ability to resist.
The other black-clad man was petrified by this scene, staring at Tangyu in terror.
Tangyu kicked off the mask of the man on the ground, revealing a man in his early thirties: "Hmph, do you like pretending to be Poisonous People? Do you believe I’ll turn you into a corpse?"
"No, no, please spare me! I was wrong, I know I was wrong," the man begged for mercy immediately.
Seeing this, the other man lost his earlier bravado and tried to flee. How could he escape in front of Tangyu?
Tangyu caught him instantly, tearing off his mask. The man broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly said, "Hero, spare us. We— we were forced by circumstances to have this wicked thought."
Tangyu slammed him to the ground, making him dizzy. Then, he said to the two women, "Real Poisonous People wouldn’t ask for your money; they would bite you immediately. I’ll leave these two to you."
The two women hesitated briefly, then angrily rushed at the two men.
Tangyu ignored them and quickly left. He got into his car and could still hear the men’s cries for mercy. Shaking his head with a smile, he thought about how women are not to be easily offended. This situation had angered him; people were not only robbing but also pretending to be Poisonous People, which was truly despicable.
Tangyu made a call to Chief Jiang, who answered promptly and respectfully: "Tangyu, what can I do for you?"
Tangyu briefly explained what had happened. Chief Jiang was furious as well and promised to increase the police force to investigate and punish such acts severely. After giving his instructions, Tangyu continued his patrol.
As he passed a small alley, Tangyu keenly heard a scream from inside.
He got out of the car and swiftly rushed over, soon seeing a Poisonous Person biting a young woman. The woman’s arm was already scratched. Beside her was a three or four-year-old boy, crying and kicking at the Poisonous Person.
"Fiend, stop!" Tangyu shouted from a distance.
The Poisonous Person immediately sensed danger. Grabbing the woman’s neck with one hand and the boy with the other, he looked at Tangyu with a sinister expression and a hoarse voice said, "You must be Tangyu. I know you’re strong, but now I have two hostages. If you dare come closer, I’ll kill them. Haha, if you don’t want them to die, let me go."
Tangyu frowned and his eyes gleamed with determination as he stared intently at the Poisonous Person: "Letting you go is impossible."
"Hmph, so you really want to cause the death of these two innocent people?" the Poisonous Person sneered.
Tangyu took step after step towards him, speaking indifferently: "To me, the lives of the world’s people are as insignificant as grass. Everyone will die. This is a calamity destined to bring many deaths. If I cared about each life, even more would die. Their sacrifice won’t be in vain with your life accompanying it."
"You—" The Poisonous Person was stunned by Tangyu’s words.
Just as he was momentarily distracted, his face changed drastically: "No, I’ve been tricked—"
By the time he realized, it was too late. A sword had already pierced his forehead, lifting him into the air with tremendous force. He flew back ten meters before being pinned to a wall. The Poisonous Person struggled briefly, eyes full of unwillingness, before dying.
The woman and boy were saved. The woman clutched the boy tightly, crying. The boy, hugging her back, comforted her: "Mommy, mommy, don’t cry. We’re safe. This big brother saved us."
Looking at Tangyu with innocent eyes, the boy asked, "Big brother, are you a superhero?"
Tangyu smiled: "Superhero? Sure, you can think of me as one. Little friend, you stay aside. Your mom is hurt, and superhero brother needs to heal her, or she’ll die."
"No, no, I don’t want my mom to die. Superhero brother, please hurry and heal my mom," the little boy immediately shook his head, obediently standing to the side with a tense expression on his face as he watched his mom.
The young woman looked at Tangyu, her face extraordinarily intense: "Benefactor, thank you, thank you for saving us."
"Hey, superhero brother, I recognize you. You are Divine Doctor Tang," the little boy suddenly exclaimed in delight.
Tangyu laughed, "Yes, I am Divine Doctor Tang."
The young woman now recognized Tangyu, growing even more excited: "You really are Divine Doctor Tang, this is great, thank you so much, Divine Doctor Tang."
Tangyu said, "Don’t speak just yet, take this Detoxification Pill. You were just poisoned, and it’s not too deep yet. Take this pill, and you’ll be fine soon. Then, hurry home, clean your wound, and stay indoors as much as possible. Donglin City might be quite chaotic these days, understand?"
"Yes, I understand. Thank you, Divine Doctor Tang," the young woman immediately took the Detoxification Elixir and swallowed it.
The little boy looked at Tangyu with an adoring gaze, "Brother Tangyu, why are you so amazing? Do you know Kung Fu?"
"Haha, yes, I do," Tangyu was also amused by the cute boy.
"Can I learn Kung Fu from you, become as amazing as you, and protect my mom from the bad guys?" the little boy asked.
"Sure, alright, you should go home with your mom first," Tangyu said.
The young woman, feeling much better, thanked Tangyu several more times before quickly leaving with the boy. After seeing them off, Tangyu walked over to the corpse of the Poisonous Person, and with a wave of his hand, a flame shot out, quickly reducing the Poisonous Person to ashes. He picked up his sword and left.
The following period saw no new discoveries. Liang Youshan reported that he had slain a Poisonous Person. Wang Wei and Wu Fei together also killed a Poisonous Person. Hu Yaomei seemed to have good luck, managing to kill two Poisonous People. As for the three members of the Lu Family, they only killed one Poisonous Person.
Time passed as the Poisonous People continued to wreak havoc. News about the Poisonous Person incidents emerged almost every minute. The Donglin police were extremely busy, and hospitals were also in chaos. Many police officers and medical personnel were bitten by the Poisonous People as well.
By the end of the day, the number of people bitten by Poisonous People rapidly increased to over three thousand, a frankly unimaginable number if this rate continued.
The whole city was on high alert. All shops were closed, and what was once a place of vibrant nightlife was now eerily quiet. Apart from streetlights and household lights, there were few neon lights left.
On the streets, you could see a police car pass by every few minutes, and sirens could be heard from afar every now and then.
The sky gradually darkened. While daytime was somewhat manageable, the night added an extra layer of fear for everyone.
The night also made it more convenient for the Poisonous People to act.
Tangyu’s car continued to speed through the streets when he suddenly furrowed his brow. The car stopped in front of a figure, and Tangyu jumped out, looking at the figure, "Doctor Xiao, why are you out here alone?"
Doctor Xiao saw Tangyu and said, "I was bored being alone, so I came out to get some fresh air."
Tangyu shook his head, knowing she wasn’t just out for some air, but rather to deal with the Poisonous People: "You’re not strong enough. It’s very dangerous to face Poisonous People."
Doctor Xiao smiled faintly, "The poison of the Poisonous People can’t hurt me. With the Spirit Stone you gave me, my Realm is now at the Fourth Layer of the Innate Realm. I believe I can handle a Poisonous Person. What, Tangyu, do you look down on me that much?"
"Of course not, I would never look down on you. Fine, since you’re out already, stay with me," Tangyu said.
Doctor Xiao nodded, and the two got into the car and continued their search.
They drove in silence, finding nothing.
"Tangyu, searching like this won’t work. How about we stop and rest for a bit? I have an idea for finding them," Doctor Xiao suddenly suggested.
Tangyu pulled the car over to the side of the road and looked at Doctor Xiao, "An idea? What idea?"
Doctor Xiao opened the car door and stepped out, followed by Tangyu. They were now beside a quiet park.
Doctor Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Poisonous People emit a slight corpse poison aura. Any place they’ve been will have some lingering traces. We can use these auras to find them. With our keen sense of smell, we should be able to pick up the scent if we take our time. We just need to locate areas with a strong corpse poison smell, and we should find the Poisonous People."
