After finishing his meal, the rat monster realized that Han Sen was still watching him. He was immediately at a loss and broke out in a cold sweat.
Han Sen casually asked, "By the way, what's your name?"
The rat-like monster shuddered and quickly replied, "Sir, my name is 'Fang'!"
"Got it. Take your food and get out of here," Han Sen turned around and strode toward the suspicious wooden crates inside the nest, waving his hand as he did so, "Be careful not to die."
"Yes, yes! I understand! Thank you for the reminder, sir! Thank you for the reward, sir!"
Having understood Han Sen's meaning, Fang nodded repeatedly.
He turned around, grabbed the octopus corpse, and quickly dug a hole in the rock wall. In no time, he crawled inside and cleverly filled the rock wall with rubble and soil, making it look seamless.
Han Sen didn't turn around, but thanks to the powerful perception brought by his "beast instincts," Fang's movements naturally couldn't escape his notice.
This wolf-level rat monster is indeed one of the few intelligent and pragmatic individuals. He didn't intend to kill him to silence him; keeping him alive might prove useful in the future.
Han Sen stepped forward and kicked open the lid of the rotten wooden box.
Inside the half-person-high wooden box, there were dark red chunks of meat covered with blood vessels and granulation tissue!
Although it had been sealed away for a long time, it still beat strangely and powerfully, like a freshly dug heart!
It's the "weirdo cell"!
Chapter 7 The Big Eye, Sykes!
The sheer number of "freak cells" far exceeded Hansen's expectations!
"This tiger-level mini-boss, the slime octopus, actually kept so much hidden away!"
It's likely that it has been withholding the share that should have been distributed to the lower-level monsters, enriching itself, and planning to accumulate a large number of "monster cells" for the next evolution.
Han Sen reached out and picked up a piece. It was sticky and slippery to the touch, emanating a strong life force and chaotic will, as if it wanted to penetrate his body and completely assimilate him!
He couldn't help but take a deep breath, forcibly calming his mind amidst the overwhelming urge to devour his body emanating from every cell in his body.
"This is... the will of Monster King Orochi!"
For an ordinary monster to devour it is nothing short of a high-stakes gamble, with a slim chance of survival.
But for Hansen...
Just then, the system notification sounded at the perfect moment!
[A large amount of unclaimed life force has been detected. Should it be converted into a source point? (Yes/No)]
A look of wild joy flashed in Han Sen's eyes. Sure enough, there was hope!
This system is awesome!!!
Without much hesitation, he immediately confirmed.
As if an invisible force had descended, the "monster cell" in Han Sen's hand suddenly began to convulse violently!
The twisted mass of flesh let out a short, mournful cry, and the red light on its surface dimmed at a visible speed.
In just a few seconds, the once vibrant flesh and blood tissue completely withered and carbonized, eventually turning into a handful of grayish-black dust that slipped through his fingers.
At the same time, a pure and powerful energy flowed into Han Sen's body, eventually merging into the system and transforming into a cold number on the panel.
[Conversion successful! 100 Origin Points obtained!] "Holy crap!"
Han Sen couldn't help but gasp, and a wild smile spread across his face on his black mask!
A single "weird cell" can actually be converted into one hundred Origin Points!
He suddenly turned his head to look at the several unopened wooden crates, his eyes instantly becoming incredibly fervent!
We're rich! We've really struck it rich this time!
Without further hesitation, Han Sen immediately took action, taking out all the "monster cells" from the boxes and plundering and absorbing them one by one!
With a series of rhythmic, twitching sounds, one after another, the vivid, writhing, deformed chunks of flesh turned to ashes in Han Sen's hands! Meanwhile, the number of Origin Points on the system panel began to skyrocket!
[Gain 100 Origin Points!]
[Gain 100 Origin Points!]
[Gain 100 Origin Points!]
A few minutes later, all the "monster cells" that the slime octopus had hoarded were completely transformed by Han Sen.
He opened the system panel with satisfaction, looked at the number in the Origin Point column, and couldn't help but grin wildly.

【—END———】
More than twelve thousand!
The "gold coins" dropped by the slimy octopus made him rich overnight!
With this huge sum of money, even upgrading a high-cost SSR ability can be done several levels higher!
Our strength is about to experience a leap forward!
Suppressing the urge to immediately add points, Han Sen organized his thoughts and considered his next plan.
"Continue to solidify the relationship with Pochi, and also take over the forces under the Slime Octopus!"
"The leader can die, but order cannot be disrupted."
"If the chaos attracts the attention of those above, and other Tiger-level leaders or even stronger Ghost-level combatants are airdropped in, then things will get complicated!"
Just then, an unsettling "plop plop" vibration came from the end of the passage, growing louder as it approached.
Han Sen's expression hardened, and he looked in the direction of the sound.
A pink, fleshy ball, about the size of a human head, was seen flapping its two small wings as it flew out from the darkness deep within the passage.
The fleshy ball has six deformed tentacles, each with only two "fingers" on each side. Its main body is occupied by an enormous single eye, which is spinning around and exudes a creepy sense of voyeurism.
Han Sen, who had watched the anime, was familiar with this; it was the Monster Association's omnipresent monitor.
"Little Gyoro Gyoro" is the clone of the Dragon-level monster "Gyoro Gyoro"!
"Oh ho ho ho ho~~ What a lucky newcomer!"
Little Eyes hovered, and although it had no mouth, Dio's shrill laughter of anger clearly came from inside the pinkish-purple fleshy ball.
Accompanying this is a surge of superpowers with "telepathic" effects, which also serves as the medium and carrier for sound transmission.
Its enormous single eye scrutinized Han Sen from head to toe with a look of scrutiny and amusement, as if it could see through his black shell and reach his very soul.
"He actually won the appreciation of little Boch, and it seems that he has turned misfortune into blessing, awakening an incredible new power."
The standard villainous tone carried an unsettling, sticky quality. Little Eyes chuckled lightly, "Oh ho ho ho ho... Good potential, very good, I'm optimistic about you~~~"
Han Sen's inner alarm bells were ringing, but he remained outwardly calm.
As a transmigrator, he knew that the Dragon-level monster "Gyoro Gyoro," who claimed to be a strategist for the Monster Association, was nothing more than a puppet shell to deceive people.
The true mastermind is someone else entirely—the actual creator and controller of the Monster Association, a powerful older woman with supernatural abilities whose strength rivals that of the S-Class Rank 2 "Tornado of Terror."
From left: Tornado From right: Sykes
Similar fleshy clones may have already covered the entire Monster Association base. His previous battles and the process of converting monster cells were probably all seen by that woman hidden deep underground!
Han Sen felt a chill run down his spine.
The system is my biggest trump card, and I must never expose it!
However, judging from the other party's words, it is highly likely that all of this is attributed to the potential explosion and benign mutation common to monsters under the pressure of near death.
After all, every mutation of a monster is inherently uncertain, and any evolution, however outrageous, is possible.
Thankfully, my secret hasn't been exposed!
However, Sykes is a woman with grand ambitions and deep cunning, and we must not underestimate her.
Han Sen's mind raced, and he decided to go along with the other party's words and continue playing the role.
He replied in a low voice, "I've only survived by luck, Lord 'Big Eyes'."
The little eye circled around Han Sen, a calculating glint in its single eye, and its tone was undisguisedly malicious and seductive: "Oh ho ho ho, how surprisingly modest... But, in our Monster Association, power is everything."
It changed its tone and became serious: "Now that you've taken down the slime octopus, the area it was in charge of and the logistical tasks assigned to it are now yours."
"So? Are you confident you can do a good job? Don't let me down!"
"Oh ho ho ho ho~~"
Xiao Jiongyan let out a chilling laugh, his huge single eye fixed on Han Sen, as if waiting for his answer.
Chapter 8 The Richest Woman on the List
A glint of light flashed in Han Sen's eyes.
He knew that this was not only Sykes's appointment, but also a test of him.
But for him, it also meant seeing a path to becoming stronger that was right before his eyes!
Having been used to being a beast of burden in his previous life, joining a new company was something Han Sen was very familiar with.
He immediately lowered his head and humbled himself, saying, "Thank you for your promotion, sir. I am confident that I can do a good job!"
"It is my honor to serve the association, but..."
Xiao Jiong's eyes burned brightly, and his pale blue telekinetic energy rippled outwards like waves: "But what?"
Han Sen stood upright, motionless: "It's just that this subordinate might need a little help from you, sir."
Upon hearing this, the woman behind Xiao Jiongyan immediately became interested.
Deep underground at the Monster Association headquarters, a mature woman with slightly wavy blue hair and glasses was swirling her glass of red wine with interest. The swaying wine reflected her curvaceous figure.
Although she wore an elegant shawl dress, the tight, thin fabric could hardly contain her ample breasts, and every move she made exuded a captivating maturity and charm.
For Sykes, it's a good thing that his subordinates are ambitious.
The guy in front of her was just one of many failures. If it could keep getting stronger, she wouldn't mind satisfying its ambitions or desires.
"Interesting... Tell me then, what kind of help do you need?"
Dio's irritating voice emanated from the one-eyed mass of flesh before him. Han Sen looked up, his gaze burning beneath his black mask: "My lord, I need 'monster cells'!"
"A massive amount of 'freak cells'!"
A hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Jiong's single eye.
"Strange cells"?
For Sykes, this was nothing unusual.
It can even be mass-produced, with almost any quantity available.
"Monster cells" can transform humans into monsters or stimulate low-level monsters to undergo secondary mutations.
