章節 40: 40 The Corruption Grows
The ValueMart aisles stretched unnaturally long, shelves towering like jagged skyscrapers.
The smell of burnt plastic and artificial lavender hung in the air, mingling with the faint metallic tang of the shard's energy.
Roderick twisted and ducked, ValueMart-brand products flying at him like missiles.
He shouted over the chaos, "Uh, guys, I think it's getting bigger!" His voice carried both panic and a touch of disbelief.
The team turned, eyes locking on the Discount Duckling.
Its feathers darkened, an eerie light beginning to glow in its eyes.
The tiny ValueMart vest it wore ripped apart, unable to contain the growing, mutating creature.
It fed off the corruption seeping from the shard, growing larger, more sinister by the second.

Zanden Hey everyone!
First of all, thank you so much for sticking around and diving into yet another chaotic adventure with Zoe and the crew. I had an absolute blast writing this chapter, especially with the transformation of the Discount Duckling. It's always fun to add a little bit of absurdity into the mix, and honestly, nothing embodies absurdity quite like a duck on a Roomba.
The Roomba-riding assistant duckling was one of those wild, spontaneous ideas that just clicked. I was watching some duck videos to figure out how an annoyed duck might react, and before I knew it, I had this vision of a tiny duckling zooming through ValueMart on a Roomba, completely oblivious to the destruction happening around it. It felt so perfectly ridiculous that I knew I had to put it in.
To top it off, I actually made an AI-generated picture of the Roomba Duckling! It captures the exact vibe I imagined—gleeful, chaotic, and completely having the time of its life. If you want a visual to go with that mental image, I’ll be sharing it alongside the chapter. I hope it gives you all a good laugh, just like it did for me.
Thanks again for reading, and I can’t wait to hear your thoughts. Did you love Roomba Duck as much as I did? Drop your comments, theories, and favorite moments below—I’m always excited to hear from you!
Happy reading!
