6 Leach on the battlefield

In the outskirts of the 9th district, a battle between the CCG and Ghouls was underway, and casualties had already appeared shortly after the battle had begun.

With their excellent teamwork and chemistry, the CCG succeeded in killing the ghouls one after another. At the same time though, the powerful Ghouls can often kill one or two investigators by surprise.

The battle between Koutarou and the Demon Eater was fierce. From the way it looked, Koutarou had begun to breath heavily, and seemed to be physically exhausted, but no matter how hard the Demon Eater attacked, it was always blocked, which made him feel embarrased endlessly but also surprised at Koutarou's heart.

The instigator of this massive battle was hiding in a dark corner not too far away, watching the scene unfold quietly.

The kid who was hiding saw that Kureo hadn't pursued him, he already planned to leave quietly, but the smell of blood attracted him, the corpses made his eyes sparkle!

His instict told him he must find a way to get those corpses, because they would have a great effect on him!

Of course, the child vaguely knew that eating Ghouls would increase his strength, which in return would mean he could survive!

As a result, the child lurked quietly, relying on his beastly talent to hide his aura, even the Demon Eater couldn't find the child.

As time went by, the battle became more and more fierce, the devil group suffered heavy losses. At this time, only 5 A-level ghouls remained, the remaining ghouls were all slaughtered mercilessly.

The loss on the CCG side was not small either. Nearly half the 20 soldiers were murdered, and the 3 third-class investigators also died, making Ueda the first-class angry!

As the two sides continued their assaults, the battlefield slowly drifted away. In the end, the corpses of Several Ghouls were far away from the battlefield.

"Huh!"

Without hesitation, the child who had been lurking flew and rushed towards the corpses, his slender hands were like sharp knives, he pierced into the corpses and pulled hard to remove the dantian!

Following the same method, in less than ten seconds, the child had all 5 of the corpses dantiants and quickly returned to the darkness.

"Go~~~"

The child held a dantian of one of the corpses and took a small bite and swallowed it. A warm sensation spread all over his body causing him to squirm comfortably.

He no longer hesitated. Although his movements were careless, the speed he moves was not slow at all. In 3 to 5 seeconds, he finished a dantian and continued to eat the next one, as if his belly was a bottomless pit!

In less then a minute, he had eaten 5 dantians, a warm energy surged all over his body. Under the skin that started to turn red, small snakes were visible to even the naked eye! What the child just felt was the increase in power!

Even if the child is ignorant, he is deeply infatuated with that feeling of gaining power!

The childs body is constantly absorbing the RC cells to strenghten itself. His thin arms have grown muscles, and he seems to have grown even taller, his eyes are more energetic but most importantly he's even more agile!

"Pouch~~"

He released his kagune, when he turned his head he saw two small snake-like red kagunes dancing mischievously. Although they were still tender and fragile, the fact he grew another one proves he's gained strength!

Once his transformation was complete he returned his attention to the battefield. The battle was still ongoing. The Ghouls were retreating steadily and struggling against the CCG's offensiveness, however the CCG were also exhausted. After all, humans have less physical strength then Ghouls!

The child's gaze fell on to the 2 killed A-level ghouls, the greediness in his eyes was visible.

His instincts told him that those 2 corpses could give him more power, however they were too close to the battlefield! Even if he is faster now, he can't be sure he wont be discovered.

The child moved again, except the target wasn;t the 2 A-level ghoul corpses, but the remaining ghoul corpses.

Although the low-strength ghouls are no longer attractive to him, he still knows its useful!

As a result, a messy scene appeared on the battlefield, where the CCG and Demon Eater group were fighting for life and death, but there was a small ghoul picking up the corpses, secretly digging out the dantians, and then eating them to strengthen himself little by little.

The child originally would not even be able to beat one of the ghouls. The reason why he could fight with Kureo was because he was not serious at all.

But now, he's eaten over a dozen dantians one after another. Although they were all very powerful ghouls, as they accumulate they are less valuable. His strength has risen rapidly, he's close to A-level strength!

Although the strength of A-level is the bottom of the ghoul world.

Once again the unsatisfied child turned his gaze to the 2 A-level corpses, now he has better odds!

"Swish!"

He moved quickly, with the help of the terrain, his little figure was hard to spot, he quitely approched the two corspes.

His eyes became brighter, straring at the two corspes, his mouth gulped, as if it was tempting food. At the same time, he didn't forget to not alert the battlefield.

"Puff!"

When he came to one of the corpses, he no longer hesitated. The powerful force he had easily penetrated the skin of the corpse and he easily obtained the dantian!

"Gudong~~"

The child eagerly stared at the Dantian in his hand, he couldn't but feel the pressure of gaining strength. He bit down fiercely and ate the dantian.

Suddenly, a crisis occurred!!!!
