【You have reached the abyss Enkai, touching the real taboo...】

Although the huge rewards brought by completing the main task have already been imported into the system, Qin Zhibo can't pay attention to those "insignificant" things at the moment.

The dark temple in front of him is the core of Enkai - the temple of Satogua.

In the middle of the temple is a spacious passage, and on both sides of the passage are sunken stone troughs.

The searchlight on Qin Zhibo's head shone there, and he saw the living things flowing out of the stone trough.

These living creatures are like lumps of shapeless ooze, constantly changing into various shapes.

As if feeling the stimulation of the light, they squirmed slowly towards Qin Zhibo and the others.

"Then, what is that?" Koizumi Hongzi took two steps back in disgust and asked.

Qin Zhibo looked at those slime-like creatures, and immediately thought of the Shoggoths he had described in his novels.

The difference is that these oozes do not have countless eyeballs, nor do they undergo countless reorganizations and divisions.

This makes them less terrifying than the shoggoths described in the books.

"do not know……"

Qin Zhibo shook his head, turned to look at Mr. clock, he had already walked towards the deepest part of the temple.

Seeing this, he and Koizumi Hongzi followed immediately.

Three slender figures slanted towards the ruins that existed before ancient times, and slimy shapeless creatures continuously flowed out from the surrounding stone troughs, approaching the intruders maliciously.

In order not to be overtaken by these creatures, the three had no choice but to speed up their steps into the temple.

Until on the pedestal in the deepest part of the temple, that dark, hazy huge body became clearly visible.

It was a giant statue of a toad.

In the stone trough near the base and in several metal sacrificial basins taller than a person, countless slime-like creatures flowed out.

They transform into various shapes and pay homage to the huge toad statue above the pedestal.

The toad statue may have been carved from basalt or onyx, with a wide mouth and wrinkled eyelids languidly closed...

No, that's not a statue.

That's live!

The huge toad-like head opened its eyes a slit, like two phosphorescent slits in an eyebrowless face.

The divine laziness and infinite slack were revealed in those lofty eyes, which made Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi hesitate at first, and then feel a deep sense of fear.

Qin Zhibo: Will -20
Red Koizumi: Will -20
Feeling the same fear, Koizumi Hongzi shook her body, so dazed that she almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, with Qin Zhibo's support, she didn't really sit on the ground.

Unlike these two hesitant humans, the alien Mr. clock behaved very naturally.

He may have rehearsed the current scene countless times in his mind, and after looking at the behemoth in front of him, he bowed respectfully.

"Oh, Master Satogua, I am your loyal believer!"

"Please accept my most pious kneeling!"

Mr. clock crawled on the ground, trying to keep in line with the surrounding ooze creatures, and even felt that he was the leader of these ooze creatures.

Satogua on the pedestal glanced at Mr. clock below the stage, his eyes widened slightly, and the light in his eyes was like a thick stream, pouring down from his wrinkled face.

After a while, a heavy rumbling sound came from the base.

Although the voice was rough, it managed to piece together meaningful syllables and words in the heads of Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi.

"Come here, what do you want?"

Mr. clock bowed reverently, and continued: "I would like to ask you to bestow upon me the 'Inner Breeder'."

"And I, your most loyal believer, will offer you two delicious sacrifices!"

Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi who were standing behind were shocked when they heard this.

There is no one else here, so the so-called two sacrifices can only be talking about them!

Mr. clock spoke English without any ambiguity, and he was planning to regard Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi as sacrifices.

From the very beginning when Qin Zhibo stated that he would join Enkai's trip, Mr. clock had already planned to use Qin Zhibo as a sacrifice to Satogua.

In the series of events that happened later, although Mr. Clock realized that Qin Zhibo was playing tricks in the dark, he never showed it.

Because it was always planning to lead Qin Zhibo into the abyss step by step.

"you……!"

Qin Zhibo gritted his teeth, he didn't expect that the alien Mr. clock would come up with this trick - to kill with a knife!
At this moment, the relationship between him and Mr. clock on the character relationship network also instantly jumped from "cooperation" to "enemy".

Qin Zhibo looked up at Satogua, his body wanted to retreat quickly, but he couldn't use any strength, as if he was under some kind of strong restraint.

At the same time, the ooze creatures in the rear continued to flow out of the stone trough, surrounding everyone's escape route.

Oops!

Qin Zhibo realized that he could not escape now, at least not with his own ability.

No matter how skilled he is, he is still human.

And the existence in front of him is the master of Enkai!
A true god!
On the pedestal, Satogua, the decider, lazily stared at the three people below.

The bat-like sloth-like body wobbled a bit, or maybe it didn't.

But what is certain is that the conditions proposed by Mr. clock aroused his interest, causing him to slowly reveal the weird tip of his tongue and lick his fat lips.

The rumbling sound sounded again, piecing together words that everyone could understand.

"Thank you for your sacrifice. My son and I are starving right now. These sacrifices will give us temporary satisfaction..."

"But how can I be sure that you are not part of that sacrifice?"

As a god, Satogua has a different brain circuit than ordinary people.

Among the believers he met, many fanatics would use themselves as sacrifices and hold sacrificial ceremonies.

So even if Mr. Clock proposed that the sacrifice was made by someone else, Satogua would not think that there was any difference between the sacrificer and the sacrifice itself.

As long as Satogua is in a state of starvation, everything in front of it can be called a "sacrifice."

At this time, Mr. clock suddenly took out a disc from his clothes, and raised his hands above his head.

"Lord Satogua, this is my proof."

"This thing is enough to prove to you that I am your oldest and most devout believer!"

Qin Zhibo stared closely at the thing that Mr. clock presented to Satogua, which was exactly the disk pieced together from all the pieces of Panest.

Until now, Qin Zhibo also really understood the usage of Panest fragments.

The most dire threat to Enkri the Abyss is Tsatogua itself.

The Panest fragments represent the tokens that Satogua established a contract with a family that believed in and continued to offer sacrifices to him in ancient times.

Possessing this object can prove that you are a descendant of the ancient race, and will not be swallowed by Satogua in a state of starvation.

Mr. clock, who had done a lot of homework in advance, knew this very well, so he was able to safely lift the disc at this moment.

This disc is the amulet for him to safely enter and exit Enkai.

With the protection of this disc, he had a confident expression on his face, which was a rare human expression he showed.

Although this expression is a bit redundant...

Above the pedestal, the drowsy Satogua was awakened by the ancient contract.

His eyes were focused, and the viscous light lingered on the Panest disc.

Suddenly, His breath became heavy and he let out a deafening hum.

"No, you're cheating!"

"This is not a token between us, a faker!"

Satogua suddenly became angry, and the black fur all over his body was like a rolling black wave, wrapping towards Mr Clock's relatively thin body.

Seeing this, Mr. clock turned pale with fright, his trembling limbs turned around under the control of fear and wanted to escape.

But Satogua's giant arms moved even faster, and before Mr. Clock could even take a step, he was firmly grasped by the blood-stained claws.

"Om-!"

"Buzzing..."

Mr. clock did not emit human screams, but the original screams of their alien race.

Intense humming sound resounded in the space, even a hive with tens of thousands of bees could not compare to the hustle and bustle at this moment.

Mr. clock was struggling with all his strength, but was still grabbed and sent into the mouth by Satogua's thick arm in the most primitive way.

The plump lips and the fangs wrapped in them are constantly chewing on Mr. clock's body.

The flesh-colored human skin covering Mr. clock's body became full of flaws under the torn force, revealing the pink carapace underneath, entangled with the human skin.

The carapace body was not easy to break, but under Satogua's heavy bite force, it became vulnerable.

The tender green blood unique to the Mi-Go race burst out between Satogua's lips and teeth, and in the next moment, it flowed down from the thick black lips as if losing vitality, and dripped on the black fur on the belly...

This picture is so crazy that it makes people tremble, Satogua has no food to speak of, chewing Mr. clock whole like a chicken skeleton.

Seeing this scene, Koizumi Hongzi's body trembled slightly, and she stuck behind Qin Zhibo in fear.

Qin Zhibo was also shocked by the scene in front of him. He never thought that the punishment of the loser by Abyss Enkai was so terrible.

But fortunately, he has not failed yet, and has personally seen the fate of the loser Mr. clock.

Mr. Clock's head was still outside Satogua's lips, and half of the human skin on the head had fallen off, revealing the weird oval head covered with tentacles.

Those tentacles were shaking wildly at this moment, as if it was some kind of near-death struggle, or a stress response to pain.

As for the remaining half of the human face, Mr. clock used it to make extremely complex human expressions.

The expression at this moment is the pinnacle of Mr. Clock's performance as a human being in this life.

Surprise, anger, humiliation, fear, unwillingness and other emotions merged on the half of the face, until the whole head was swallowed into the big mouth of Satogua like an endless abyss.

Satogua put Mr. Clock whole in his mouth, chewed it for a few minutes, and then spat it out in disgust.

"It's unpalatable."

Qin Zhibo could vaguely distinguish some pink broken limbs and broken human skin from the puddle that was spit out on the ground.

Especially the human face of Mr. clock, which was crumpled in the light green and off-white muddy mucus like a torn rag, and the empty and boring fake eyeballs rolled aside.

Koizumi Hongzi accidentally glanced at the puddle, and was so disgusted that she retched.

Seeing this situation, Qin Zhibo couldn't feel better, he felt his stomach was churning, but fortunately there wasn't much food inside to stir it up.

But the invisible heirs who have been watching for a long time regard the vomit of Satogua as a treasure, and all the scorched black ooze around rushes forward, like a hungry animal next to the water source in the arid desert, continuing to devour the food Residue and slime.

At this time, Satogua made a rumbling sound and spoke again.

"This sacrifice doesn't satisfy me, and it's time for the next sacrifice."

Satogua's lazy eyes pointed directly at Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi. The huge mouth that had just chewed on Mr. clock was about to become their grave.

Qin Zhibo was shocked immediately, raised his hands and shouted.

"I am your true believer!"

"Please wait a moment, I can show proof!"

Qin Zhibo had no time to have a complicated conversation with Satogua, and immediately pulled away to pick up the disc that fell on the ground.

With both hands on the disc, the whole disc was torn apart, split into six fan-shaped pieces like a sliced ​​pizza.

Among them, there is a special fan-shaped fragment, which is made up of two diamond-shaped fragments.

This fragment was the key to Mr. Clock's failure, and one of them was replaced by Qin Zhibo with a fake fragment obtained from Belmode.

At this time, he took out that important diamond-shaped fragment from his bosom.

This fragment was obtained by Qin Zhibo from the Pavilion of Angels, and it was given to his subordinate by the boss of the organization - the Panest fragment of the former "Rum" of the organization.

Mr. Clock originally wanted to obtain this fragment, and sent Qin Zhibo to Belmode to obtain a fake fragment to divert his attention.

But out of insurance, Qin Zhibo got the news directly from the boss of the organization, obtained the fragments of the former Rum in advance, and replaced them with Belmode's fake fragments.

This caused Mr. clock to fall short, and the Panest disc he put together was a fake.

Qin Zhibo took off the fragment from Belmode and replaced it with the former Rum fragment he brought.

This fragment fits perfectly with the fragment Mr. Clock obtained in Arkham, and can be pieced together into a complete fan-shaped fragment.

Qin Zhibo calibrated the disc carefully, and was about to open his mouth to present it, but suddenly his heart skipped a beat.

He hesitated.

What he hesitated was, would this matter really go so smoothly?

The so-called former rum fragment was obtained from the organization boss as a reward for returning Belmode.

But the organization boss didn't immediately fulfill the promise, but told him the clue of the former rum fragment after a few days.

Why take days to tell yourself if you're going to keep a promise?

Is there a possibility?
That is, both myself and Mr. Clock were cheated by the boss of the organization.
