Chapter 6. The high price of arrogance

I got up at 6:00, fully awake, which surprised me. I haven't slept properly for so long that I forgot what it feels like to have a full rest.

- Is it really 6:00? I've never felt so cheerful! - looking at the phone, I get out of bed.

I was thinking about yesterday thinking, how did the Black Watch appear in this world? Through portals? Or is the world also infected, and Mercer tricked me? Well, whatever it is, sooner or later I will find the answer.

Washing and putting on my clothes, I thought about my next actions. What should I choose now to mutate: weapons, improved virus control, protection, movements or disguise? So many questions have been spinning in my head, but I don't even have mutation points to do anything.

What do I need most? Of course, mutation points, but what is needed for this? This is a great killing efficiency, which means weapons. I close my eyes again and find myself in countless DNA strands, and I see 6 combat mutations to choose from. Claws, Hammer Hands, Blade, Whip, Tentacles, Muscle Mass. My favorite mutation in the game was the whip, but I'm afraid that if I choose it, I'll have to learn how to use it, and I don't have that luxury. The same goes for the blade and tentacles, I just don't have enough experience to cope with them. What about hammer arms and muscle mass? I have an extremely small biomass storage for them. So far, only the mass of three people can fit into me, and my hands will only slow me down, and the damage from them wakes up minimally. The best choice at the moment is Claws, why exactly are they? Because in the game they were the initial weapon, probably for a reason, and you can just try to attack with them, the chance that I will cut someone with them will be higher.

I open my eyes and walk down from my room in a small hotel. There is a little old lady in front of the reception desk. I went up to her and threw the keys and money on the counter, and went to the exit. In fact, I had the idea to eat it, and the people that are here. But due to the fact that the hotel is located far from the city, there are almost no people here. I decided to let them live. Although I have become more wayward and cruel, but I am still me. I still don't have the guts to kill such a sweet old lady. Anyway, let them all live longer, as well as everyone else will die when I spread the virus.

Going outside, I climbed onto the roof of the hotel with a few jumps, and jumped, planning further away from the city. In my plan, I need to find scattered villages far from the city with the help of a map, and absorb their inhabitants. It's too dangerous to hunt in the city, the black watchman then said that I was the source of interference of their signal, which means that there is a sensor in my body for my virus that picks it up, and thanks to this they can detect me. To hide from him, you need to improve your disguise, but first you need to improve your power.

During the journey, I found hills and dived from them, thanks to this, my movement speed was very high.

- How great it is, I really feel alive! There's nothing holding me back anymore! HAHAHAHA - Rejoicing in my newfound strength, I reached the first village.

I entered the village as an ordinary person, I'm not a mutant after all! Well, that is not like him hehe. Passing by the houses, I looked at them in shock, I thought all the time that the villagers live worse than me, but after looking at the two-story houses and gorgeous vegetable gardens, I was stunned. I imagined that the whole road would be in cattle excrement and everything would be in mud, but it's even cleaner here than in the city!

- Damn compared to them, I lived in a dumpster! - I started to get angry, clenching my fist.

My fist relaxed, and a grin appeared on my face in anticipation of how I would devour all the inhabitants in this village. When I arrived, it was night outside, I was walking between the houses and saw a group of teenagers walking in my direction.

- Damn, I'm tired of looking after the vegetable garden already! Do I look like a gardener? My parents suck... - said the man in alcoholic intoxication, he was held by a more sober friend.

- That's right, my mother also tells me to take out the trash, how tired of it, and why don't you go and throw out this garbage yourself, bitch! So this village is also a boring place with nowhere to have fun at all, just go to hangouts with each other," said the fat man in the company.

- There are not even normal shops here to buy normal cosmetics - complained a red-haired girl with a ton of makeup on her face.

It infuriated me how they complain about their lives. I've never lived in a house with more than one room, I've never been able to get a high-skilled job, and I've always been spinning around like a rat in order to somehow survive. And these worms only think about parties and sex.

- And don't tell me why my father sent us to this backwater! You'd think some sucker mentioned us in his suicide note as the cause of his death, it's not our fault that she's so vulnerable - Said the most arrogant of them holding some sexy brunette by the chest.

- Oh, I miss the times when we tied him naked in an abandoned construction site, he still had to die back then! - said the guy who was holding his drunken comrade.

- Look, some beggar is coming, that's why I teach beggars so that they know their place. And then they get impudent, it's disgusting to intersect with such scum of society! Ha-ha-ha - the same arrogant bastard says to his friends with a laugh, pointing at me.

Hearing these words, I smiled a maniacal smile, my heart beat faster, which means it was necessary to arrange a massacre! I stood in front of the group and slowly raised my head, on which a terrible smile shone.

- W-why are you looking at us like that, you freak! - said the biggest guy from their company.

The big man's voice sounded very tense. I also see how everyone else also started to look at me with panic. It was the same with Angela, when she saw me, she just peed herself. But now I realized that I had something like the aura of a predator like in the anime.

- AHAHAHAHAHAH - I start laughing maniacally, thereby causing more fear in this group of idiots.

- Am I a beggar? Am I Trash? Am I not worthy to be on the same level with you? And who gave you the right to think so? Do you really think you are the Lord God? – with a queue of questions, I slowly approach that arrogant guy.

- Damn Chad, punch this freak! - with a trembling voice, the arrogant guy says to the big guy.

I see a big guy running towards me with a fist swing. I redirect the biomass to my legs and right arm and, without moving, catch his fist. Seeing this, he tried to pull out his hand, but I pinched him in teski. He tried to pull his hand out in a panic, but he couldn't do it. When he got tired, I directed all the biomass into his hand and with a sharp jerk I tear off his arm to the shoulder, besides kicking his stomach with my foot.

Everyone stared at this scene in mad fear. I swallowed his hand and slowly grabbed the big man's sobbing face. I began to put a little pressure on his head and more and more tears and screams began to come out of him, similar to the screams of a pig when it is cut alive.

* BOOM*

All sounds faded and nothing was heard. On the street in the night darkness, illuminated by several lamps, one figure could be seen in front of which lay a body without an arm and a head. And in front of him were 5 guys and 3 girls, all were covered with red liquid, pink scraps and gray matter. All the people who witnessed this scene looked at the man with a terrible grin in front of them with insane fear.
