The people in this place, all wearing masks, can still recognize the identity of the Scythe-Man as long as his distinctive kagune is revealed.
He is a true powerhouse, an A-ranked Ghoul known for his extreme cruelty. The CCG once dispatched three senior investigators to capture him, but he managed to escape and even killed one of the investigators.
It is unexpected for him to appear in the 7th Ward and attend the Ghoul restaurant's banquet.
But this powerful Ghoul was killed instantly by Lin Yi.
The entire Ghoul restaurant fell into a deathly silence.
Lin Yi smoothly moved, slowly picking up and dropping the Scythe-Man's body on the ground with a thud. Within a few breaths, it had turned into a lifeless corpse.
The other two Ghouls were there to provide support, but upon seeing the Scythe-Man being killed instantly, they didn't hesitate to turn and flee.
However, Lin Yi's figure was quick, and in an instant, he caught up with the two of them like a phantom. Once again, with swift motions, he ended their lives before they could even use their kagune, and they fell to the ground.
"It's over, run!"
One of the timid Ghouls shouted, and the entire Ghoul restaurant instantly descended into chaos.
They were all privileged Ghouls, with noble identities and an abundance of food. There was no need for them to risk their lives against Lin Yi.
"Bang!"
Shuu Tsukiyama stood on the corridor of the fifth floor, tightly gripping the railing, causing the solid wooden railing to dent.
His head was slightly lowered, concealing his face from others, but for a while now, he had been terrifyingly silent.
The attendant beside him was worried, knowing that the Ghoul restaurant had been exposed, and this place was definitely not safe to stay. After hesitating for a moment, he advised Shuu Tsukiyama.
"Young master, we should retreat. This place will soon be surrounded by the CCG."
If they waited for the CCG forces to arrive, even with the power of the Tsukiyama Family, it would be difficult to ensure Shuu Tsukiyama's safe escape.
He was very concerned that Shuu Tsukiyama, in his anger, would do something irrational.
However, what he didn't know was that Lin Yi hadn't informed anyone at all.
If the CCG found out and sent a large force, he wouldn't have the opportunity to hunt down a large number of Ghouls.
"Hahaha..."
But the next moment, Tsukiyama raised his head, revealing a crazed expression, laughing wildly with excitement in his eyes.
"It's perfect, did you see? He's perfect."
Tsukiyama raised his hands in obsession, watching as Lin Yi entered the crowd of Ghouls, bodies falling around him. He was covered in blood, but in Tsukiyama's eyes, it was like an enticing cake.
"What a taste!"
"Young master, let's go quickly." The attendant beside him saw that Tsukiyama's emotions were no longer stable. He exchanged a glance with the subordinate next to him, preparing to forcibly take Tsukiyama away.
But before he could grab Tsukiyama's arm, there was a "pff" sound, and Tsukiyama had already summoned his kagune, piercing through the chest of the attendant, leaving a hole.
His fierce gaze was like a starving wolf that hadn't eaten for three days and three nights.
The attendant beside him was instantly frightened.
"Pff!"
Another strike, Lin Yi bisected a female Ghoul from the neck, and a large amount of blood and
entrails scattered on the ground. He had already reached the second floor of the corridor.
"Damn it, let's fight this Dove. If we continue like this, we'll all die here."
Some Ghouls tried to organize resistance.
The one speaking was a black-haired Ghoul, tall in stature. As soon as he spoke, he removed his mask, revealing a hideous scar that ran through his cheek, exposing his determination.
Otherwise, in front of CCG investigators, revealing their true faces was basically equivalent to exposing their identities in the human world. They would either have to kill to keep it a secret or flee for the rest of their lives, hiding and wandering.
"Good, kill him!"
Someone took the lead, and several ferocious Ghouls also stopped, one by one removing their masks.
"Well, it seems there's still some courage left. But I won't go easy on you bunch of beasts." Lin Yi looked at the suddenly organized group, who subtly surrounded him.
He stood with his sword raised, surrounded by corpses on the ground.
All these Ghouls were regular customers of the Ghoul restaurant. The Ghoul restaurant, where their only food source was humans!
A group of beasts who had even developed preferences when it came to eating humans. From the eyeballs of young girls to the hearts of children, they would kill more than ten different people for the sake of a so-called 'rare delicacy.'
It can only be said that in the original story, the perspective has always revolved around the main characters, making it difficult to truly understand the horror of Ghouls from the plot alone.
"Kill!"
With someone giving the order, various kagune appeared, momentarily dazzling Lin Yi.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"
Without much time to think, he noticed that in the distant sky, winged Ghouls were launching their attacks.
With a swing of his sword, the tough and sharp blade transformed into a circular shield, like a giant snake coiling around, blocking all the kagune outside.
Once the winged Ghouls' attacks stopped, Jörmungandr reverted back to its long sword form, and Lin Yi's figure rushed out with a whoosh.
Before a suit-wearing Ghoul could react, Lin Yi was already in front of him. He quickly raised his kagune to block, but in the next moment, his entire right arm, along with the kagune, was thrown into the air.
A scream instantly resounded as Lin Yi ended the Ghoul's life with a single strike. Then, without giving him time to fall to the ground, Lin Yi swiftly swung his sword, stabbing it into his heart, stirring it around before decisively pulling it out. He then moved on to the next target.
His speed was too fast. Apart from the winged Ghouls, the others couldn't keep up with his pace. He tried to target isolated Ghouls and deal with the fights using the most efficient methods.
However, there were at least hundreds of Ghouls in the Ghoul restaurant, and their regenerative abilities were terrifying. Lin Yi couldn't guarantee that he could deliver a fatal blow every time. Ghouls with ordinary injuries would recover in a moment and return to battle.
In such a situation, he also suffered injuries.
Due to a momentary lapse of concentration and his weakened stamina, he was successfully ambushed by a winged Ghoul, resulting in a cut on his left arm.
