Chapter 463: Grabbing the Devil’s hand (2/2)
“Why don’t you take the opportunity to use my hand to kill that little side hoe?”
Kali’s gaze turned cold as she said, “I do not wish for him to become a flower in a greenhouse, so I do not mind you increasing the tribulations that he faces, but if it exceeds my tolerance level, you will force me to do something. It’s best that you consider if you can withstand the outcome of infuriating me. I can accept him having a change of heart or becoming unfaithful, but I do not wish for him to be heart-broken. Therefore, that girl cannot die.”
The ‘Infernal Queen’ said with a sigh, “You are really making it tough on me. This can’t be killed while that can’t be killed, wouldn’t the trap that I went through great pains setting up be for nothing?”
Kali said with a sneer, “As for the seven trial-takers, do not overdo it. Sending out three Level Lords and even going against the rules to ban the ‘exit command’. You have already completely overturned the balance of the game. Although I do not mind the deaths of those seven people, they are still Xiaobai’s friends. Furthermore, they are in such a dire situation in order to save Xiaobai. I cannot sit idle while you do as you please.”
The ‘Infernal Queen’ said in an even more depressed manner, “You are being too cruel. You are even forbidding me to have my final enjoyment? What if I were to say…no?”
Kali said with a sneer, “If you are bent on refusing to realize your errors, I’ll have to intervene.”
The ‘Infernal Queen’ said with a sly smile, “If you could personally take action, was there a need to enter this prolonged mindless conversation with me? The moment you attack, I’ll gain the final authority and will immediately activate the ‘self-destruct sequence’. No matter which side you save, the other side will instantly die. No matter how strong you are, there is also a time lag when it comes to crossing between two worlds that are on different planes of existence. It’s because you can’t save both sides that you are here threatening me, isn’t that right?”
Kali’s expression changes slightly, as she said coldly, “So that’s how it is. Is that your real goal? By doing so, you have indeed forced me into an impa.s.se, but you should know that when push comes to shove, I will not hesitate to save Xiaobai. Although doing so would be less than fair to the seven trial-takers, it is something that cannot be helped. My conscience is clear and Xiaobai would not blame me for it. But if you were to activate the ‘self-destruction sequence’, you would be destroyed along with the land of trials. Do you think it’s worth it to pay such a huge price but only being able to drag seven humans to die along with you, without being able to kill Xiaobai or hurt me?”
The ‘Infernal Queen’ gave a coquettish laugh as she lazily bent her fair arms and whispered, “Then, what if my true goal is to force you to do something, in order to gain the final authority to activate the ‘self-destruction sequence’?”
With that said, Kali’s pupils constricted slightly as she said in disbelief, “You don’t want to live anymore!?”
The ‘Infernal Queen’ chuckled and said, “That’s right. I’m sick of living. Being trapped here in what seems like a vast world but actually lacks freedom, living on is just an exceedingly boring matter. Therefore, being able to see your pained and hesitant expression might be the last moment of joy to me. You definitely never imagined that the powerful you can’t even save a few humans, right?”
A wry smile suffused across Kali’s lips. She had truly been tricked and had completely fallen for her scheme. Who said that no scheme was useless in front of absolute power?
It was only because your scheme was not sinister enough.
The moment the self-destruction sequence began, it only took an instant for the entire land of the trials to be destroyed. s.h.i.+ Xiaobai and Speechless’ group were separately located in the array world and the world of the seventh level. They were different worlds that existed in different s.p.a.ces. Even she needed to take time to travel through s.p.a.ce.
If the ‘Infernal Queen’ was really sick of living and wished to be destroyed as soon as possible, Kali could really only save one side.
And she definitely would choose to save s.h.i.+ Xiaobai, but the other seven rookies were s.h.i.+ Xiaobai’s friends. Furthermore, they were in a dire state because of their attempt to save s.h.i.+ Xiaobai, so how could she turn a blind eye to their plight?
The ‘Infernal Queen’ was too nefarious, causing Kali to feel inordinately furious, but she could not do a thing, because the moment she attacked, she would similarly activate the ‘self-destruct sequence’, causing her to fail to save both sides.
Kali found her head aching. She had lost count of the years that has pa.s.sed since she felt so helpless after gaining absolute strength.
This time, the only person that could save the seven children was not her, but…
“Xiaobai, quickly wake up.”
The boy’s eyes were filled with tears. In his blurry vision, he slowly lost his focus.
“Badump! Badump! Badump!”
A weak heartbeat began to turn stronger constantly in his unconscious mind…Stronger and stronger…
Suddenly, a fiery beam of light shot out from every corner in his mind and stabbed his eyes, evaporating all his tears. It was as if even his eyes were consumed by the flames. In his pained vision, the world in front of him suddenly opened up into an expanse of light.
In the light, a shadow gradually floated over, like a large rug that paved a path in front of him.
Screech, screech. The sound of mice screeching began resounding in his ears.
Suddenly!
Countless eyeb.a.l.l.s appeared in the shadow. The pupils in the eyeb.a.l.l.s turned in different directions as they simultaneously looked at the light beyond the shadow!
At the same time, the light filled the firmament, as a ma.s.sive mouth that occupied half the sky slowly opened. Accompanying it was the sound of maggots squirming.
Slowly, a gigantic b.l.o.o.d.y tongue reached out from the ma.s.sive mouth.
On careful look, the tongue was filled with sharp barbed spikes. Every spike had a thin red lip, as though the most striking lipstick had been applied on them. Countless red lips slowly opened.
The countless eyeb.a.l.l.s in the shadows that were looking at the light suddenly turned and looked towards him. Their overwhelming evil intentions seemed to stab into the boy’s every pore like needles. In the light, the countless lips on the spiked tongue unleashed a demonic voice. The voice sounded like the wails of ghosts and the roars of G.o.ds!
“Giving up?”
“Have you given up?”
“Repressed or indignant?”
“You must be indignant?”
“Are you indignant!?”
“Then struggle!”
“Struggle!”
“You have to struggle!”
Suddenly, a gigantic mouth that filled half the sky reached out a hand. It was a black-skinned devil’s hand covered in blood.
That hand looked like it was far in the sky.
But in fact, it was just in front of him.
“Grab it!”
“Grab it!!!”
“Grab it!!!!”
“Take the power you need!”
“Go struggle!”
“Go and struggle!”
The boy used his final bit of strength to raise his hand with great difficulty.
Gently, he grabbed the devil’s b.l.o.o.d.y hand.
The three-headed h.e.l.lhound, Herat, was a bachelor dog. It was not because it wasn’t handsome or because it did not ‘dare’ to risk things, but because this screwed up world only had a single three-headed h.e.l.lhound.
It was not like it could not accept the act of mating with other species, but that was only to release its pent-up s.e.xual frustrations. It was a physical process and there was no spiritual connection and exchange. It was not the pure ‘love’ it yearned for.
As it could not obtain it, it no longer believed in ‘love’.
Only till today!
Two humans that suddenly appeared in this world were actually exchanging sweet nothings in front of it!
It was incensed but it did not act rashly and chose to quietly observe!
Oh? Wanting to kiss?
Interrupt them!
Hmph! Want to confess?
Another interruption!
Let the two darn humans experience the anger of a bachelor dog!
After a long while, the two humans finally could not hide in the turtle sh.e.l.l any longer. They began their journey of escapades, but what made it even more incensed was that the two humans would not forget to exchange sweet nothings to each other while running.
Herat used all its strength to chase after them, but it had no idea how long it chased after them. The two humans seemed extremely tenacious and managed to last a long while without collapsing.
However, there was ultimately a limit no matter how tenacious they were.
After the girl fainted, the boy had lasted for a rather long period of time. He fell down six times before he finally could not get up.
Herat gave a victory roar and was preparing to have a taste of the two humans’ flesh with its partners. It was definitely going to be filled with the putrid taste of love.
However, just as Herat took a few steps forward, it immediately caught a whiff of intense danger. Don’t ask it why it was able to catch a whiff of danger, it was only because three-headed h.e.l.lhounds have such sharp noses.
In short, as a meticulous and intelligent three-headed h.e.l.lhound, Herat believed in its intuition and retreated far away at the fastest speed possible.
Just as it forebode, the boy that had just fallen down stood up once again.
Furthermore, when he stood up, his black hair had all turned silvery-white. His pair of black eyes had a golden vortex in them, as though there were two golden devils living in them.
Immediately following that, the banquet of a cruel ma.s.sacre happened in front of Herat’s eyes.
In less than a minute, hundreds of monsters were torn into pieces by that human. No, that was no longer a human but a silver-haired demon.
It used its bare hands to rip apart hundreds of monsters.
The silver-haired demon was bathing in blood and the girl that was tied to it was also covered in blood.
The silver-haired demon raised its head to roar, as though it did not notice that there was a girl tied to its body.
The monsters that came late trembled in fear from the h.e.l.lish scene before them. None of them dared to approach the region that was like an Ashura’s playground.
Herat felt thankful for its intelligence. It had hidden in the safest zone and continued monitoring the situation secretly.
Suddenly, its eyes lit up.
That was because the true show it had been waiting for is finally about to begin.
The unconscious girl finally opened her eyes!
“s.h.i.+…Xiao…bai?”
The girl slowly lifted her hand and tugged gently at the silver-haired demon’s sleeve. Her weak voice sounded especially clear in the dead and silent h.e.l.l.
The silver-haired demon seemed to finally realize that a strange object was tied to its waist.
It lowered its head and growled.
Then it stretched its blood-stained hands slowly towards the girl in front of it.
Herat was immediately ecstatic as it began to tremble in excitement.
That was because the silver-haired demon’s hand pose was one it was very familiar with. That was the same hand pose that it used repeatedly when it ripped apart the hundreds of monsters!
