Henry was held in Hoby's hand like a chicken, unable to move.

The elf store manager exuded a creepy dark aura, like a ball of thick ink, slowly eroding Henry's body.

Henry felt as if his blood had solidified, his body became stiffer and stiffer, and it became more and more difficult to breathe.

He was horrified to find that gray spots began to appear on his skin, as if he had been splashed with sulfuric acid and were spreading rapidly.

"Ah...ah..." Henry groaned in pain.

He felt that his vitality was being drained away bit by bit, and his consciousness began to blur.

"Interstellar Corporation...will not let you go..." Henry's voice was trembling, but he looked strong on the outside but was actually weak on the inside.

Hobi smiled cruelly, "The plant has your scent on it. The evidence is irrefutable. Even if the chairman of Interstellar Corporation comes in person, it will be useless."

The indicator light on Pulse flashed a few times, and he suddenly asked, "Did Stobbel really instruct you to destroy the fortune tree?"

Henry nodded desperately, "It's her! It's her!"

He laughed hysterically: "Stobel is a genius with super powerful abilities!

"She can easily kill all of you together!

"I advise you not to offend her, just let me go... Ugh!!!"

Hobi's eyes were stern, and he increased the strength of his hands, leaving obvious red marks on Henry's neck.

"Stobel..." Hobi gritted his teeth, "Do you think I'm afraid of her?"

This reminded Gu Xingyan, and she grabbed Huobi's arm and said, "Huobi! Calm down first! It's too dangerous here, let's go back to the studio first."

Yun Qingzhi also advised: "That's right, it's not safe to do it outside."

None of them were in the store. Countless precedents have shown that the more confident a store manager is in his own abilities, the more likely he is to die outside.

Hobi's hands trembled slightly due to the force, and the blood-red light in his eyes flickered.

Gu Xingyan continued to persuade: "Now is the critical moment of the lottery, don't delay the fight for the land, otherwise Vicky's efforts will be in vain."

All four of them ran out, but the issue of luck value has not been resolved yet.

Hobi took a deep breath, and the blood red in his eyes gradually faded away, regaining a bit of clarity.

He picked up Henry roughly and dragged him towards the floating island like a dead dog.

When he reached the studio door, Hobby stopped and did not go in immediately.

"I can handle the issue of the luck index."

Huo Bi turned around and looked at Gu Xingyan and the other two, with a cold smile on his face.

He pulled out a strangely shaped dagger, with a faint green light flickering on the blade.

This green light looks very much like the leaves of a money tree.

Hobie roughly tore open Henry's sleeve and lightly scratched Henry's arm with the strange dagger. A long wound appeared and blood gushed out immediately.

Hobie showed no mercy. Instead, he moved Henry's arm close to the trunk of the money tree. Then, he stared at the dead plant with an almost obsessive look.

A horrifying scene happened.

The originally withered money tree, like a beast that smelled blood, the branches on the trunk shook violently!

Soon, it seemed to come alive, twisting wildly, like a hungry python, scrambling to wrap around Henry's wound.

Gu Xingyan and the other two felt their scalps tingling.

This is not a money tree, it's clearly a man-eating plant!

The thick trunk began to wriggle violently, and a layer of fine lines appeared on the surface, like blood vessels, constantly absorbing Henry's blood.

Henry's screams resounded through the sky.

He felt his blood being drained, his body becoming weaker and weaker, and his consciousness starting to blur.

The branches and leaves of the money tree, originally withered and yellow, gradually turned into emerald green, full of vitality.

The lines on the tree trunk became clearer and clearer, like greedy tentacles, tightly clinging to Henry's wounds.

Hobi's eyes became more and more fanatical, as if he was performing some evil ritual.

He was muttering something in a low and hoarse voice, like a prayer or a curse.

Henry's screams gradually became weaker, his body began to tremble violently, and his skin turned gray, like a mummy.

But this scene could not move even the kind-hearted Gu Xingyan. She remained silent throughout, and at most looked away, not making a sound to disturb Huo Bi's revenge.

Henry's screams could be heard from far away. In order to torture him, Hobby would cast elf magic to keep him alive whenever his breath became weak, deliberately making his screams sound more powerful.

The noise alarmed the floating islands of several nearby companies.

Many store managers came out and looked around curiously.

They saw Hobi and Henry who was entangled by the money tree and was sucking blood.

There were sporadic exclamations from a distance.

"Oh my God, what is that?"

"What is he doing?"

"The plants of the No Name Group are so scary!"

"No wonder they dare to put it outside. It turns out that it is not an ornamental plant, but a powerful guardian!"

Stopbel also heard the familiar voice and walked out of her studio.

When she saw Henry's miserable condition, a look of surprise appeared on her face.

But she did not rush to rescue him immediately.

After all, Henry was no longer her employee.

Hobby saw Stopbel and a cruel smile appeared on his face.

“Look, Henry, your store manager isn’t coming to your rescue.

"Why don't you get more information? Maybe I can make your death more pleasant."

Henry looked in the direction of Stopbel, with complex emotions flashing in his eyes.

There is hatred, resentment, and despair.

He remembered that Stopbel wanted him to bear the loss of the big client's contract termination, and hatred surged in his heart.

"All this was instigated by Stopbel!" Henry shouted with his last bit of strength.

"Whether it was the Xirang swap incident last night or the killing of the fortune tree today, she asked me to do it!"

He said, looking at Hobi expectantly, just wanting to die quickly.

However, Huo Bi, Gu Xingyan, Yun Qingzhi and Pulse all looked at him with indifference.

They all knew that Henry was lying.
